Take Me Away novel Chapter 186

After spending a day and a night's arrangement, people in the NJ City base dared to set out. However, people in the disaster area of CL Mountain had been unable to get in touch with the outside world for a day or two. The rescue was approaching.

The road to CL Mountain seemed more difficult because of aftershocks from time to time. It was unlucky that it was raining now. There would be a decline of the land. The consequences would be unthinkable. It was already very dark during the day, if when the night came...

"The troop can only go two thousand meters forward." In the car, the voice of Spencer came from his intercom, "The road in front of us has been blocked by boulders. We can only walk forward on our legs, but there are still more than a thousand meters away from the most serious disaster village."

When he heard the news from ahead, Spencer hung up the intercom. He looked out of the window at the mountains and stones, in a complicated mood. Natural disasters were inevitable. Hopefully, there wouldn't be too many casualties.

"There are always some things that we can't avoid." Fiona glanced at Spencer and said, "I know, you have a lot of responsibilities to take. Don't be overwhelmed by responsibilities. You've done your best."

Spencer smiled faintly and teased, "Do you know mind reading?"

"Humph!" Fiona protested in a low voice, "Are you really going to the disaster area, Mr. Spencer?" Fiona confirmed. Because with his position, there was really no need for Spencer to come in person. Moreover, he needed a few people to follow him and protect him.

"It's my responsibility."

Finally, the convoy moved to an end where the traffic was off. All the people got out of the cars. Robert, the second leader of the NJ City base, was the chief commander of the rescue action. He had assigned the rescue work to different areas.

Some of them chose to stay in a camp, while others went on foot for the rescue line.

Carrying her belongings on her back, Fiona walked in the end of the three groups. There was no a complete path in front of her, only the huge stones and mountains. She could only step on them.

"Give me your bag," Spencer had been walking at the front of the line and then returned to Fiona quickly after he gave the task of the leader to Janice. She looked so clumsy.

Fiona wiped her sweat and said, "I'm fine."

"I know." Then Spencer dragged her bag from her and continued, "If you walk like this speed, you'll be a drag on us. I take the interests of the whole into consideration. Do you think I'm flattering you?"

At this moment, her phone rang

As she spoke, the phone in her pocket rang.

"I'm sorry." Fiona apologized and took out the phone. Seeing it was from Ryan, she picked it up, "Hello? 'Ryan? What's wrong? " Hearing that, Spencer stopped in his tracks.

"CL Mountain had an earthquake. It's so close to your base. Are you okay? Is Sarah okay? "

"We are all fine "Snort -" Hello? Ryan, can you hear me? " Suddenly, she heard the busy tone from the other end of the phone and the voice of Ryan from the other end of the line.

Spencer snorted, "If you keep going forward, there will be no signal."

Frowning, Fiona dialed the number again and asked, "Hello? Ryan? "

"What's going on, Fiona? Why did you hang up the phone just now? "

"No signal here. I'm in CL Mountain. I'm going to save people. Don't worry. I'm fine."

"You're in CL Mountain? !" Ryan screamed in disbelief. "Do you know how dangerous it is there? The earthquake debris flow, the land flow Come back right now! "

Spencer hated the way Ryan spoke to Fiona. This way was he wanted to take responsible for her and wanted to take charge of all her things. So what he's Fiona's boyfriend! He was still the man who had been in charge of Fiona now! Here, he was in charge of Fiona!

At the thought of this, Spencer grabbed her phone from her hand and said, "Well, you, you're Ryan, right? I'm here with Fiona, and she's safe now! She's safe now! "

"Hey! Spencer! Stop it! Give me back my phone! " While Fiona was struggling, she was pulled over to the chest by Spencer. He held her in his arms to keep her from falling down.

"What 'Spencer? !" Said Ryan, gritting his teeth.

"Yes, it's me!" He said triumphantly, "The signal will be out soon. You don't need to call anymore. Bye!" Then he put back the phone to his pocket.

"Hello?! Spencer! "

Beep, beep, beep

"What are you doing, Spencer?" Fiona shouted, "Give me the phone!"

Then Spencer let go of her and said, "It's not as easy as saving people in the battlefield. I need you to focus on your attention, so your phone is confiscated. It's useless to keep it anyway. There is no signal."

"You..."

"Ma'am, why haven't you caught up with us?" Janice's voice came from the intercom.

"I'll be right there." Raising his eyebrows, he looked at Fiona and said, "Let's go."

Fiona let out a sigh and followed Spencer.

It took them more than half an hour to run five hundred meters away. However, the more they walked, the more slippery and muddy the road became. The first aid base had been stationed in empty places, and tents had been erected one by one.

"You guys stay here. I'll go to the front with the second team to check the situation," Standing in front of the queue of three teams, Spencer left without taking off the parcel. After the instructions, he cast a glance at Fiona and said, "I'm leaving."

"Be careful." Fiona fixed her eyes on him. "You're the most powerful one in our base. No one can take responsibility for anything that happens to you."

"Gee." Spencer shook his head and remarked, "You brat, even your words of concern make me feel annoyed. Don't worry. I won't die so early. Don't leave your little body here. "

Fiona sighed. Spencer, you don't speak well.

Boom——

Not long after they had left the station, they were shocked again. But their ears were full of the sound of "bang". According to some refugees who had escaped, it was difficult to go to the front and the places near the sea had been submerged.

It had never happened to Fiona before. On the one hand, she consoled the people who had escaped from the disaster area with others on the other hand, and on the other hand, she was worried about Spencer. That afternoon, most of the people out were out of anger. At the beginning, Fiona did not have the heart to see it, but later, she had seen so many dead people that she was a little bit numb.

Spencer and his men walked about 300 meters, along with a dozen people. The people they saw on the way were all dead. Some were smashed to death by things during the earthquake, some were drowned

When they finally saw the village, the situation was far beyond their expectations. It was a small village, but the topography was low. The place they stood was higher than the roof of the village. The house had collapsed for a third, and a third of it was submerged by debris flow and flood. The last third was barely to fall down.

"Help!"

"Help! Help! "

There were many people on a roof, swinging things that could be waved to seek help. It was good to see someone alive!

"Get ready for the leather boat!" Spencer observed the terrain through a telescope to see if there was any possibility of a flood.

Soon enough, the motorboat was put on. Two or three people were carrying it towards the place where the victims were.

It was raining more and more heavily. All the people wore transparent raincoats, but they seemed to be useless, and their clothes quickly got wet. When the boat arrived at the village, the people on the roof scrambled to jump onto it, as if they had seen the hope.

"One by one, don't rob!" Shouted Spencer.

"One by one, don't rob!" On the other side of the garrison, a large number of victims had been sent here. Standing in front of their tents, Fiona gave water and biscuits to the victims one by one, "Everyone gets a portion of the water and biscuits. Take it easy! Don't scramble!"

"Wow Someone cried.. Suddenly, a baby burst into tears. Turning around, Fiona saw an embarrassed subordinate holding the little girl.

"What happened?" Fiona strode to them.

"The child's mother died."

"Give her to me!" Without saying anything, Fiona took the baby and coaxed her as she went to her tent to prepare milk.

In the next three days, when Fiona was hungry, she ate ship biscuit directly. When she didn't want to eat, she just ate it with water. It didn't matter if she didn't eat well or didn't sleep well. What she couldn't bear most was the rainy days.

But she refrained from it.

And Spencer was busier now. He went back to the camp twice in three days and set off again every time he came back without taking a break. However, every time he came back, he would say hello to her. Sometimes he gave her a simple look, sometimes he would simply greet her.

It's just that knowing that they are all good to each other can make them feel at ease.

When the sun rose in the fourth morning, all the people in the camp were excited.

"Something's wrong!" However, before their happiness got any better, Spencer's assistant, who had been following him, rushed into his tent and reported, "Mr. Spencer, he disappeared!"

"What? !" With a rattled expression, Fiona grabbed the man by the sleeve and asked, "Who is missing? Is Spencer missing?! You mean Spencer? "

The man nodded and wiped the mud off his face. "Last night, Mr. Spencer went with me to save a little boy who ran up the mountain. He asked me to wait for him on the motorboat. He went up the mountain alone, but after a long time, the boy ran out himself and said that the uncle who saved him was trapped and asked me to find someone to save him."

"So you came back? !" With red eyes, Fiona roared, "So that's why you are back? Why don't you save him?! Why don't you go with him? "

"Of course not!" The man looked sad, "I'm bound to return to save Mr. Spencer. But when I was about to climb up the mountain, the sand slipped down and sealed the road. I was on my motorboat. When I met rescuers, I asked them to go up the mountain to save people. I... I came back to inform you. "

"Send someone to find him!" Robert pounded the table.

"I want to go with you!" Fiona came back to her senses, "I'm going to find him!"

"Miss Fiona, you can't go!" Robert refused without hesitation, "You can do nothing to help the rescue."

"No, I must go!" Her eyes were filled with tears. Trying hard to hold them back, she pleaded, "I must go find him. If you don't let me go, I will go to find him myself! I have to! "
