Chen Mu had just rushed to the school hospital.
He saw Yu Bowen still limping slowly forward.
"Yu Bowen, help call 119, there's a fire over there!"
Yu Bowen thought he heard Dr. Chen's voice, and the next second saw three figures running towards the dormitory building.
Following the direction they were running, Yu Bowen also saw the black smoke from the dormitory building.
He hurriedly took out his phone and called 119.
—
"No! You must call 119 when there's a fire! Does the school doctor deal with fires too?"
"Your place uses a stretcher for firefighting? Dr. Chen is worried there might be casualties, and wants the doctor to get to the scene early. Once there are injured people, his presence increases their chances of survival!"
"Hasn't Dr. Chen asked that student to call 119 already? But even when 119 gets to the school, it takes time, right?"
"What's the school doing? Aren't they evacuating the nearby students quickly?"
"The school isn't completely inactive, it's just that at this time, most people aren't even awake, not noticing a dorm room catching fire."
"..."
—
Chen Mu rushed to the dormitory building and immediately activated the fire alarm downstairs.
"What's happening! What's happening!"
The dorm supervisor lady was startled awake by the alarm, her groggy mind barely registering what was happening.
Yet she still opened the dormitory's main door at the first sound of the alarm.
Allowing students to quickly evacuate the dormitory building.
Chen Mu pointed upstairs, "There's a dorm room upstairs spewing black smoke. I've already asked someone to call 119, but if the fire isn't too big…"
Before Chen Mu could finish speaking.
The dorm supervisor lady interrupted, "If the fire isn't too big, self-rescue might be quicker, Dr. Chen, wait here for a moment!"
Saying that.
The dorm supervisor lady dashed out of the building.
Although Chen Mu was anxious, he didn't directly go upstairs, instead, he knocked on each door to evacuate students.
"Dr. Chen, I think I can confirm which dorm room it is, come with me!"
The dorm supervisor lady returned in a hurry from outside.
Chen Mu and Su Bingbing followed her but were slightly slower.
Meeting Su Bingbing's puzzled gaze, Chen Mu explained, "Our school's dormitory buildings are huge, and compared to me, the dorm supervisors are more familiar with the internal layout of each building."
"She went out to confirm the location and help us reach the scene quickly."
While Chen Mu and Su Bingbing were racing upstairs, a lot of frightened students were rushing downstairs.
Even so.
When these college students saw Chen Mu carrying a stretcher, they silently made way.
Letting the rescue personnel pass first.
—
"Wow! Are these the college students of today? To maintain such composure in a life-threatening situation is admirable!"
"College students today, their qualities are unknown, but they rise to challenges!"
"Once they figure out where the fire is, some might even want to help."
"No! Didn't anyone notice that guy with socks still stuck in his hair? Definitely leapt straight out of bed, hahaha!!!"
"..."
—
"This is the dorm room."
The dorm supervisor lady led Chen Mu and Su Bingbing, navigating agilely through the building.
When they reached room 403, she confidently pointed to its door and told Chen Mu.
"Hello? Hello?"
"Hello? Hello?"
Chen Mu shouted loudly at the door, but there was no response from inside.
Realizing this, Chen Mu's face turned slightly pale.
He turned to the dorm supervisor lady, "Do you have the key for 403?"
"Here it is." She found the key for 403 from a large bunch and handed it to Chen Mu.
Chen Mu took the key and tried to unlock the door, "Supervisor, please go cut off the power to 403. Cameraman, please get the fire extinguisher from the hydrant behind you!"
The cameraman from the TV crew also knew the urgency of the situation.
He immediately put down his expensive camera and did as Chen Mu instructed.
Only Chen Mu.
After trying the key a few times, he looked even more distressed, "The door is locked from inside, even with the key, we can't open it."
"What about kicking it down?" Su Bingbing suggested quietly.
Kicking it down?
Hearing Su Bingbing's suggestion, Chen Mu laughed, pointing at the door, "Are you sure we can kick open a metal door?"
Su Bingbing: "..."
Chen Mu: "Even the fire brigade needs tools for forced entry."
"Then what do we do?" Su Bingbing took out her phone and checked a map, "The nearest fire brigade takes more than ten minutes to get here."
"Dr. Chen, is there anything we can do for the students inside before the fire brigade arrives?"
Chen Mu took a deep breath, "First, evacuate as many students as possible from the dormitory building!"
The cameraman went from room to room, knocking and evacuating students on that floor.
"Do you have a selfie stick?"
Suddenly.
A hand patted his shoulder, the cameraman turned to see Chen Mu.
Even though the cameraman didn't understand how a selfie stick could help a school doctor save someone, he still handed over an extendable selfie stick from his bag to Chen Mu.
Chen Mu entered room 404, mounted his phone on the selfie stick, and extended it towards the window of 403.
The cameraman followed closely, filming, "Dr. Chen, what are you doing?"
Chen Mu replied seriously, "I want to see if there's anyone conscious in 403, if we can wake one person to open the door…"
Chen Mu was only halfway through speaking.
When they heard a faint sound from inside 403.
Chen Mu quickly retracted the phone and checked the footage captured by the front camera inside 403.
On the ground was a burnt-out electric hot pot, emitting thick black smoke.
It was likely the source of the fire.
In the dorm room, three male students were completely unresponsive, probably unconscious.
One male student seemed to have a bit of consciousness left.
As Chen Mu suspected, the student was trying to save himself, slowly crawling down from the top bunk, aiming to get down and open the door for self-rescue.
But reality is often harsher than novels.
While climbing down from the bunk, the student fell from the ladder.
He hit the ground and became entirely unconscious.
Moreover.
The moment he fell, he hit his head hard on the floor.
Even though the footage was not very clear.
Bloodstains could still be seen on the ground.
"Dr. Chen, I've already called 120." Su Bingbing rushed in from outside, "We've organized a full sweep, and aside from 403, all students in the building have been successfully evacuated."
Chen Mu remained silent, his gaze falling on the curtains of room 404.
At this moment.
Chen Mu's palms were soaked with cold sweat!
