The next day, 8 a.m.
It was already dark because of the heavy rain.
One night, the streets were in a mess.
There are broken branches and overturned garbage everywhere.
One night's rainstorm has already made Furong Branch a water police station.
Although the drainage channel outside the police station was dredged overnight, the flood still flooded the steps and directly poured into the office hall on the first floor.
As some police officers are still participating in training activities in the provincial capital, it is difficult to transfer back for a time.
Therefore, the Furong Branch is now short of major generals, and even the families of police officers have been temporarily dispatched to help with drainage operations.
Zhao Guozhi asked officer Wang to open the warehouse of the police station, urgently transfer out flood control materials, search for someone to wear waterproof equipment, surround the door of the hall on the first floor with simple sandbags, and then start to remove the water logging in the hall with a careful pump.
Until 8 a.m., the police station kept calling for help.
Due to early planning, all police cars were parked at high places in the police station.
But now driving on the water is obviously impossible.
Fortunately, there are some kayaks and life jackets in the flood control materials in the police warehouse.
That is, after a while, all surface equipment has been officially issued.
Interestingly, we found that the totem around the kayak was actually a police car totem and printed with the Police Logo.
Yuan Shasha was shocked and said, "Zhao Bureau, are our equipment so advanced? Even kayaks are police totems?"
"Well, it was donated by Yuan's group many years ago after a flood, but those people in Yuan's group like to make some fancy things, so they made the kayak look like this according to the totem of the police car."
"Poof!" Ji zhe sniffed at his speech and laughed. "It's the first time I've seen that kayaks can be made into police car totems and police badges. These people are really far sighted."
"Hehe, what's the use of flowery? It's good-looking but useless. The key is to be practical." officer Wang has long been surprised.
All kinds of strange equipment have been seen from the police for so many years.
While everyone was nagging, Ding Liang also reminded: "there are not enough people in the fire brigade. Let's go to support. In the low-lying community over there, many old people have to go to the hospital for physical examination today. Now they are blocked at home, so there's no way."
"Isn't this debugging the equipment? Don't worry." officer Wang checked the kayak equipment and confirmed: "there's no problem with the equipment. Let's go now."
After roughly checking the hands, officer Wang reminded: "well, I'll take a kayak with Xiao Yuan, Gu Chen with Lu Weiwei, Ding Liang with Huang Zunlong, and the rest to you, Ji Zhe and Wu Xiaofeng."
"No problem."
"Then don't wait. Let's go."
"Remember to put on your life jacket to be on the safe side."
While everyone was nagging, Zhao Guozhi also reminded.
Zhao Guozhi has no bottom in his heart. Seeing that the heavy rain still doesn't stop, and the wind is getting stronger and stronger.
As in the past, Zhao Guozhi must be more worried about the life safety of police officers.
Seeing that everyone was wearing raincoats and life jackets, as well as various rescue tools, and ready to set out in these four fancy kayaks, Zhao Guozhi breathed a sigh of relief.
As officer Wang has relevant rescue experience, he took the initiative to receive the police this time. The command was handed over to officer Wang and Gu Chen was responsible for coordination.
Driving a kayak all the way down the street, I saw many vehicles still soaking in the water.
Small animals are saving themselves, while residents are more prone to lie by the window and shoot the embarrassing scenes in the streets with their mobile phones.
Due to the typhoon weather, power cuts have occurred in many areas. The whole Furong district, most of which belong to the old urban area, so the drainage system is very fragile.
At this time, residents living in the old city are complaining.
Because many of them belong to old buildings, the windows of many residents were directly blown to the road by the typhoon last night. Many old buildings have now become dangerous buildings without windows.
Many residents, using simple tools such as wooden boards at home, are collectively evacuating to higher locations.
Along the way, Gu Chen was helpless to see these.
The typhoon ravaged Jiangnan City, turning this southern metropolis into a land of prosperity overnight.
"Elder martial brother Wang, how long will it take to get there?" Ding Liang followed the crowd in a kayak and said in a daze.
Everyone saw that the old city had become a water Venice, and their hearts were also mixed.
Officer Wang took out his mobile phone and simply looked at the location of the map. Then he pointed to one of the locations and said, "I found 13 buildings and 14 buildings in Longmen lane. They are all here."
Just as the official voice of police officer Wang had just fallen, several middle-aged men and women lying on the old balcony were waving their arms and shouting to the people.
"Elder martial brother Wang." Gu Chen pointed to his head.
"I know." officer Wang said, very confused. He also opened his voice and shouted in the face of the rainstorm: "who called the police?"
"We, it's us." one of the families also quickly responded: "we called the police. There are five old people here. Today they have to go to the hospital for review, but now the rainstorm has flooded the whole area. We can't help but ask 119 for help."
"But there are not enough people at 119, so we need to wait a long time, so we called the police."
"I see." officer Wang looked around and wondered, "but why do so many old people need to go to the hospital in your buildings?"
"That's right." seeing this, another middle-aged woman quickly opened her voice and responded loudly: "we are the dormitory of the community nursing home. The elderly live in this area, so there are a large number of people."
"So it is." after understanding the situation, Gu Chen directly replied, "wait a minute. We'll lean the kayak over right away. In addition, the things we should bring should be packed in waterproof bags."
"I see, comrade police." at the other end, another young woman responded, looking like a nurse.
When Gu Chen leaned the kayak against the entrance of the corridor.
Gu Chen asked the others to stay, while he followed officer Wang, Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha and went upstairs to check the situation.
At this moment, five elderly people who need to be rushed to the hospital for follow-up treatment have been carried to the corridor exit by the nursing workers here.
Lu Weiwei turned her head and said in wonder, "don't you even have a fence in your community nursing home?"
"Yes, they are all soaking underwater." the young female nurse pointed directly to the right side of the kayak and explained:
"We have a sloping terrain structure here, and the fence is also made along the sloping structure. It is not very high, but now it is all submerged under the water."
"My God." hearing the female nurse's speech, Yuan Shasha was stunned and said, "the water depth must be about one meter eight?"
"It should be. Because this is a pavement with groove structure, there is often ponding in rainy days."
"I can barely cope with it by relying on the drainage channel, but now the weather can't be discharged at all. All the water accumulates here. It's disturbing."
A middle-aged man holding one of the elderly slowly walked to the kayak and explained to the crowd.
Gu Chen nodded silently: "I understand. Don't say anything now. What hospital are you going to have a physical review?"
"The second hospital," said the young nurse.
"Is the raincoat ready?" Gu Chen asked again.
The middle-aged man hesitated and asked, "is an umbrella OK? We don't usually have raincoats."
"How do you hold an umbrella in this weather?" officer Wang looked a little upset.
Gu Chen looked at the old people in front of him. Without hesitation, he took off his raincoat and handed it to the middle-aged man. "Put on my raincoat. It's windy and rainy outside. Don't think about holding an umbrella."
"Yes." seeing that Gu Chen had taken off her raincoat, Lu Weiwei didn't hesitate to take off her raincoat and give it to the staff opposite.
Soon, the five elderly people had put on their raincoats.
With the concerted efforts of the people, he climbed onto the kayak carefully.
Gu Chen looked at several people across the street and asked, "who is the leader here?"
"I am." the middle-aged man raised his hand and said, "I am the person in charge of the community nursing home."
"Then you can come up and go to the hospital for review. I need your help," Gu Chen said.
"Then add another person. Xiaoqin knows more about the specific situation of these old people than I do..."
"Let her come up too." before the person in charge finished speaking, some police officer Wang in a hurry directly urged.
The middle-aged man "Alas", then waved to the young female nurse: "Xiaoqin, come up, have you brought everything?"
"It's all here." the young female nurse called Xiaoqin directly held the bags wrapped in the inner and outer layers in her arms, stepped on the water, and directly sat in the kayak with the help of Gu Chen.
"Is everyone due? Is there anyone else to go?" officer Wang looked around and asked again.
The middle-aged man shook his head: "no, just these people."
"Well, you sit down, follow me and start." officer Wang started the kayak and began to drive slowly to the street.
Due to the complex terrain of community nursing homes, the ponding is deep, but when driving to the main road, the depth of ponding is eased.
Along the way, the storm kept beating on everyone's faces.
Everyone is wet, but they have been protecting the safety of several old people.
Due to the strong wind, the canoe can't drive too fast, which is easy to cause rollover.
Therefore, in the past, the destination that can be reached by driving for 10 minutes, Gu Chen drove a kayak and drove on the water for 30 minutes.
When I came to the gate of the second people's Hospital, the surroundings of the second people's hospital were already soaked in water.
The exit of underground parking garage is directly flush with the water surface.
In the hall of the second people's Hospital, several nurses are waiting.
Seeing that the police drove four kayaks and braved the storm to send several old people over, they hurried out of the hall, stepped into the water and began to help everyone to help the five old people up the steps.
After everything was ready, the young female nurse handed over the information to the person in charge. Then she turned to Gu Chen and said gratefully:
"Thank you. If it weren't for you, these old people might not be able to catch up with the follow-up visit."
"These old people and their children are not around. Now they encounter this kind of thing again..."
After a pause, the female nurse couldn't help sighing: "if you hadn't appeared, I really don't know what to do. Several of them were not in good health."
"It doesn't matter." Gu Chen patted the choking female nurse and said comfortingly, "we'll be there at any time if we need it."
"Then how long will it take you to review?" Lu Weiwei, who was on the side, also hurriedly asked.
After all, there is a constant police situation and many places are waiting for rescue.
If the four kayaks are delayed here, it will certainly delay the police, so Lu Weiwei wants to know the exact time.
But the young female nurse shook her head and said, "I don't know yet. It may take a long time."
"Otherwise, leave me a phone number. If we really need to transfer, would you please pick me up again?"
"Well, that's OK." Lu Weiwei took out her mobile phone and also reminded, "tell me your number and I'll call you."
"Well, my mobile phone number is..."
After the young female nurse saved the phone with Lu Weiwei, she began to go to a new police location with everyone.
Along the way, looking at the whole spacious street, now there are all kinds of vehicles floating. Officer Wang also said sadly: "I've never seen such a thing happen in Furong district, Jiangnan City."
Glancing back at Gu Chen, he found Lu Weiwei holding a small milk dog in her hand. Officer Wang was stunned and said, "Hey, I said Lu Weiwei, where did you come from?"
"I just saw the dog standing on the roof of the car, so brother Gu and I saved it. What? Is there a problem?" Lu Weiwei said.
Officer Wang sighed, "animals also have lives. If you can save them, save them."
"Elder martial brother Wang." just as the voice of police officer Wang had just dropped, Yuan Shasha picked up her mobile phone and also reminded, "there are two reservoirs in Jiangnan City that are opening gates to discharge flood. The villages and towns there are under great pressure now. Now the command center is gathering strength and preparing to go there for rescue."
"Where?" officer Wang asked.
Yuan Shasha looked at her mobile phone and confirmed, "Xize town."
"What? You mean Xize reservoir is discharging flood?" officer Wang was surprised when he heard the name, and his face also showed a frightened expression.
Yuan Shasha nodded silently as soon as she was stunned: "yes, the notice said that Xize Town, Xize reservoir is discharging flood, and another one is at the end of Nanping Town, also discharging flood."
"It's over, it's really over." officer Wang's face was dim and couldn't help saying, "there will be a lot of pressure for flood discharge in Nanping Town, but the terrain of the town is generally high, and the situation will not be very serious."
"But Xize town is different. Xize town is located in the impact plain of mountain canyon. The whole town is widely distributed, and it is distributed along the ocean current."
"The Xize reservoir is located in the upper reaches of the Xize river. Once the flood discharge starts there, the whole Xize town will become the state of Ze."
