Chapter 642 - Who Fell Into The Water?
Chapter 642: Who Fell Into The Water?
Yan Huan pushed Yi Ling upward while Yi Ling grasped Lei Qingyi’s hand tightly. She wanted to say something, but there was a figurative frog in her throat. She did not manage to utter a single word, not even an ‘Ah’.
Lei Qingyi quickly held out his other hand to Yan Huan. He had to act faster, they were running out of time.
But it was too late. As she reached out her hand, Yan Huan was swept away by the flood.
“Quick, save...”
Before Lei Qingyi could finish what he was saying, he saw a man dashing over immediately to chase after Yan Huan. He immediately leapt into the flood.
“Lu Yi! Are you out of your mind!?”
Lei Qingyi was in a daze for a long time before he came back to his senses.
“Lu Yi, you bastard, I’m gonna kill you!”
At the moment, the flood was rushing underneath them, and the person who Lei Qingyi was holding onto was still in midair.
I’ve gotta save them, save them quickly. Lei Qingyi’s teeth were chattering, his whole body was stiff. He even forgot to pull up the person he was holding. He did not know why, but he felt like he could not move an inch at the moment. He felt as if his arms, his legs, his whole body was not his.
“Director, pull up that person, quick!”
A man hollered at Lei Qingyi, worrying that the person might fall into the water if Lei Qingyi let go of her hand when he was distracted.
“What did you say?” It was pouring, so Lei Qingyi could not hear what he said clearly.
Pull up, the person? What pull up? Pull what? You thought I was pulling carrots?
“Director, quick, pull her up!”
The man approached Lei Qingyi abruptly and shouted in his ear, only then did Lei Qingyi recall something. He lowered his head and noticed the person who was hanging in midair, both her legs nearly fully immersed in the floodwater.
At that moment, he broke out in a cold sweat. He then immediately pulled up the woman with the others.
The person had already passed out when she was pulled up to the shore. She must be too frightened.
He stood up to look for Lu Yi. At first, he stretched out his big foot to nudge the reckless woman for causing him trouble, and even involving Lu Yi now.
However, when he was about to step on her, he suddenly noticed something.
He froze, then bent down quickly and brushed aside the woman’s hair on her face, revealing a face that he could not be more familiar with.
“Lingling?”
He shouted incredulously. The woman was Yi Ling. How could she be here? He asked her to take care of Little Lei at home, how did she end up here?
“Qingyi...” When Madam Lei saw her son at the moment, she almost broke down into tears after surviving the disaster. Meanwhile, Ye Shuyun stared mindlessly at the rumbling flood not far away from them. She gradually realized something, and her mind went blank afterwards. She could not see or hear anything at that moment.
“Sister, sister...”
Madam Lei wailed frightfully when she saw Ye Shuyun fall unconscious.
“Mother, Aunt, why are you here?”
What could Madam Lei say? She could only cry, but there was no use crying now. She did not have the nerve to confess that they wanted to see the flood, go on an adventure, and challenge themselves. They basically had it coming.
But whatever experience they wanted had nearly cost them their lives.
They have also put others’ lives in danger.
Lei Qingyi still could not think properly at the moment. Suddenly, he pointed at the flood at the side, “Who fell into the water?”
God, could that be...? The person had long hair. She was not thin, not tall.
Madam Lei started crying while covering her face.
“That’s Yan Huan, Yan Huan, she’s Yan Huan!”
“Yan Huan?” Lei Qingyi’s teeth chattered. Yan Huan fell into the water, so Lu Yi leapt into it, too, because he noticed that the woman was Yan Huan.
God, he would not dare to imagine it, truly. If something were to happen to Lu Yi, what should he do? He quickly grabbed hold of someone beside him. His voice was anxious, but he had to keep calm as he said, “You guys, send them to the hospital first. The rest, follow me to save the others.”
He wiped his face again while talking, but he could not hold back his tears, and the pain in the corners of his eyes.
Lu Yi, please be safe.
He stepped forward and began to run. He could hear Madam Lei crying her heart out behind him, wailing that she had wronged Yan Huan, Ye Shuyun, and the Lu family.
Lei Qingyi wiped his face once again, even though his face was clean. But he still could not see clearly. Was there something wrong with his eyes? Or his vision?
He wondered if anyone could tell him what happened, what on earth happened, why would things became like this, what the hell was going on.
Suddenly, a bout of dizziness struck him and he fell down on the ground. Those following behind him quickly helped him up. Then, he heard someone calling for an ambulance.
“Never mind,” He waved his hand and stood up. But no one knew, at that moment, tears were gushing down his cheeks. Well, it was raining. Yes, because it was raining, no one knew he was crying.
Lu Yi, you would not die so damn easily, right?
When we served in the army, you endured all kinds of hardships and challenges, you were stabbed and shot, but you pulled through everything and survived. You would not die now, you are not an ordinary man, you are Lu Yi, you are the Great Lu Yi. You are the best prosecutor in Sea City, and you must know how many lives you saved this time. You must know all your contributions, and how many ranks you will be promoted above for this.
How could you die? No, you would not die. There is no way you would die! You have to take care of your parents as their only son. You would not have the heart to die before them, right? How could you do this, this is too cruel!
But he suddenly stopped, and stared at the boundless floodwater in front of him.
He asked Lu Yi not long ago, if someone was swept away by flood, would he go missing, or die?
Lu Yi just uttered a word, “Die.”
Yes, “Die.”
Unless there was a miracle. But how could miracles be found everywhere in this world? How could anyone hope to get lucky every time?
What should I do? What should I do? Lei Qingyi nearly lost his mind. He did not know where to find them. If he searched upstream, they might being swept downstream, or they might be rescued by someone, or they might be washed up on the beach by the floodwater.
