Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1651: Basic Precaution

At the same time, they heard a loud explosion coming from the restaurant they had just come out from!

The restaurant that was filled with joy just a moment ago was suddenly filled with screams.

"Uncle! Uncle! Uncle!"

"Uncle is seriously injured!"

"Ambulance! Quickly call an ambulance!"

"Call the police! Call the police!"

The restaurant was soon lit up by a raging fire, and the scorching heat assaulted their faces.

The sharp and ear-piercing sound of a fire alarm rang out in the corridor, and it was accompanied by a series of wild howls.

Gu Nianzhi's ears were almost deafened by the loud explosion just now, and any every seemed to come from the distant horizon.

Huo Shaoheng's back had suffered the shock wave of the first round of explosion in the bathroom. Although there were no external injuries, his internal organs were still hit.

He held Gu Nianzhi tightly in his arms and rolled on the ground while crawling towards the stairs.

The Qin family members cried for help as the flames came from behind them. They supported each other and pulled each other out of the hell-like restaurant. The management staff of the revolving restaurant were dumbfounded at first, but they quickly reacted. Some called the police, some saved people, and they worked in an orderly fashion.

The security personnel on the thirty-sixth floor rushed into the fire with dry ice extinguishers to put out the fire.

Ten minutes later, the sound of ambulances and fire engines had already sounded on the main road outside.

Fortunately, there was a fire station near the revolving restaurant and the Qin Corporation's Private Hospital. Thus, the ambulances and fire engines arrived very quickly.

However, the fire started from the highest point of this building. Looking up from the ground, only thick smoke could be seen rolling. It covered the entire thirty-sixth floor.

Flames came out of the windows from time to time. The fire engines couldn't reach such a high place.

The firefighters carried the water pipes on their backs and ran up the stairs to the 36th floor on foot, regardless of the danger.

Because of the fire in the building, the elevator had automatically closed and couldn't be used. People up and down the stairs could only use the stairs.

The people who had escaped from the upper floors were in a panic. They could barely make way for the firefighters.

Huo Shaoheng had just pushed open the stairs of the 36th floor of the fire escape with Gu Nianzhi in his arms when an unpleasant smell of plastic rushed out.

Huo Shaoheng cursed in his heart. He quickly closed the door and rolled Gu Nianzhi into the storage room at the side. He took off her silk scarf and soaked it in water, covering it between their noses and mouths.

Boom!

Another explosion. This time it came from the entrance of the 36th floor of the fire escape, directly cutting off their path down the fire escape.

There were explosions in front and behind them. The flames soared into the sky, and the black smoke that covered the sky made many people fall to the ground.

Huo Shaoheng composed himself and quickly took out his phone. He wanted to contact the Soviets, but as soon as he took out his phone, he knew it was broken. There was an electromagnetic shield here, so the phone had no signal at all!

Gu Nianzhi clutched Huo Shaoheng's shirt tightly. Although she was nervous, she was not afraid.

She knew that he was by her side. Even if something were to happen, he would stay with her.

Her heart was very calm, and her hearing gradually returned to normal.

Gu Nianzhi thought about it quickly. It was impossible for a fire engine to put out a fire in such a tall building.

The other party had also blown up the fire escape. It was obvious that they did not want them to escape through the fire escape.

Could this be enough to trap them?!

Glancing at Huo Shaoheng's phone, Gu Nianzhi smiled as she took out her phone and dialed He Zhichu's number.

Huo Shaoheng: "…"

"… why is there a signal on your phone?" Huo Shaoheng asked softly.

Gu Nianzhi smiled as she shook her phone. "Lu Jin's product so it must be a high-quality product."

This was a modified phone that her father had modified. It could withstand the electromagnetic shielding of all frequencies.

After all, in this world, no one would dare claim to be number one if Lu Jin claimed to be number two in electromagnetic field research.

On the other end, He Zhichu had already received a call and was anxiously asking, "Nianzhi? Aren't you eating at the revolving restaurant today?! I just got the news. Are you okay? Don't be afraid, I'll come pick you up right away!"

It was obvious that He Zhichu had also received the news of the revolving restaurant's accident.

At this critical juncture, Gu Nianzhi did not say any nonsense and said bluntly, "Young Master He, we encountered several explosions and were trapped on the top floor of the 36th floor. The fire escape was also blown up, and there are flames all over the top. We couldn't get out or get down."

He Zhichu's heart tightened and he immediately said, "I'll bring the helicopter squadron over to pick you up right away! You hang in there and go to the bathroom to find a water source! Don't come out! Don't come out until I get there!"

Since the firefighters below couldn't come up, they could only send helicopters to put out the fire from above.

Gu Nianzhi nodded and said, "Almost all the members of the Qin family are here."

He Zhichu was stunned. "We'll talk when we meet."

He rushed out of the room while wearing his flight suit. At the same time, he gathered the professional fire-fighting forces in the military and boarded the newest and fastest armed helicopter squadron in three minutes. He also deployed two small fighter jets and they quickly rose into the air. He sped toward the revolving restaurant on the third ring road.

At this time, the explosion and fire incident at the revolving restaurant had become a hot topic in society.

At the same time, countless new media outlets, traditional media outlets, as well as reporters from television stations, newspapers, and magazines gathered on the road in front of the revolving restaurant, competing to report.

After Xie Qingying returned from her studies abroad, she founded a very influential new media company. When faced with such a major incident, she was the first to come to the scene to conduct interviews and reports with the employees of the company.

The flames on the 36th floor were raging. Some people were already unable to withstand the attack of the fire and jumped down from the top floor while shouting!

The firefighters opened up a huge air cushion downstairs and picked up a few people who had jumped down from the top floor.

However, there were also a few people who unfortunately fell into a place without air cushions and died on the spot.

The scene was very tragic.

The police also rushed over quickly and set up a yellow police cordon at the scene to prevent everyone from crossing the line.

Xie Qingying wore a black suit and stood in front of the camera with a heavy expression. She quickly and fluently broadcast the news in four languages: Chinese, English, French, and Latin.

Other than the state media present, Xie Qingying's new media was the most formal, the most objective, and the most exhausting.

From the looks of it, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to go to "Swan Lake"at night.

During the broadcast break, she took out her phone to call He Zhichu, but He Zhichu didn't answer the call.

Just as she was puzzled, she suddenly heard her own staff say, "President Xie, look, the military's Wu Zhi is on the move!"

Xie Qingying suddenly raised her head and saw twelve of the latest military helicopters whistling over.

"Quick! Get the camera ready!" Xie Qingying hurriedly picked up the microphone and said to the camera, "The government's rescue is still quite fast and effective. This time, they even mobilized the most elite armed helicopter unit of the military to help rescue people and put out the fire!"

"Such a big fire definitely needs helicopters to help put out the fire. Otherwise, there's no way to save them."

"The people upstairs are saved!"

The media reporters, police, firemen, and doctors and nurses in the ambulance cheered together.

The audience and netizens who were nervously watching the explosion and the progress of putting out the fire and saving lives in front of their computers, mobile phones, and televisions also cheered.

As soon as the helicopter squadrons arrived, a loud horn immediately sounded in the air.

"Clear the area! Clear the area! Everyone, leave quickly! Everyone, leave quickly!"

At the same time, two inconspicuous fighter jets suddenly shot out from behind the helicopter squadrons and fiercely fired towards the building opposite the revolving restaurant from several directions!

Xie Qingying came to her senses. This was definitely not a simple fire incident.

She quickly pulled her staff into the interview van. "Let's go! Let's get out of here!"

The military was in the middle of clearing the area.

..

In the small storage room on the top floor of the building, Huo Shaoheng took off his suit jacket and the bulletproof vest inside. He put it on Gu Nianzhi without any explanation.

Gu Nianzhi's eyes widened. "You usually wear a bulletproof vest when out on the streets?"

Huo Shaoheng. "… Basic precaution."

"But is this made of anti-materiel rifle?" Gu Nianzhi was puzzled. If she had known, she would have asked Lu Jin to make a few sets of bulletproof vests that could block heavy sniper bullets.

"There shouldn't be any more bombs, but there might be snipers outside," Huo Shaoheng said calmly. "If He Zhichu has someone protecting you, he should be outside fighting to clear the area now."
