Chapter 205 Where is she?
It was as if York Charlie couldn’t realize how fast time was really passing; he only felt that every second that Blanche Capra was buried underneath was a long one of crisis and unknown life and death. He began to be able to maintain a little bit of calm, subconsciously informing himself that he could not panic and could not panic, once a person panicked, his behavior would lose efficiency.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
All that science and engineering knowledge he had learned was running amok in his mind, and he tried to grab the useful ones, analyzing Blanche Capra’s current situation to the best of his ability, and how he could do it the fastest and most efficiently. But when it came down to it, digging one place at a time, it was one disappointment at a time to the end.
Disappointed more and more, digging more and more time, he is no longer rational, can no longer keep calm, and even threw away the tools in his hand, in fact, those things are not useful at all. In the constant digging and rummaging, his hands were soon injured.
Thinking that she was buried somewhere, or even pressed by these heavy objects on her body, either bleeding and injured, unable to move, or simply unconscious and fainted. He didn’t even dare to call her name out loud.
The worry in his heart rose to the extreme, all kinds of fears kept coming up, the steel and concrete, dust and dirt, broken walls in front of his eyes became a frame of chaos and horror. York Charlie thought of her face, and for a while couldn’t think of her face, so annoyed that he was about to go crazy, so scared that he was about to die.
Why, why had he left her out there alone? Why not put her where he could see her everywhere? Or why did he himself refuse that Manager Pete’s offer to let someone accompany her to dinner? More even, why did he bring her here?
If he was the only one who came on a business trip this time, then nothing would happen to anyone. York Charlie regretted to death, how could he not have thought that the two of them could not easily get back together yesterday, while today it was likely that they would have to face the test of life and death. If, if … this is the end of him and her … no! It must not be like this!
They had traveled so far to get here, they had gone through so much so hard to hold on, could it be that he was going to watch her leave him again this time? Last time he was the one who took the initiative to push her away, he thought he was going to live in perpetual darkness until he realized that the heavens had given him a glimpse of light, and he was so grateful to see it again!
She must never die! Can’t! Can’t!
Blanche Capra… Brandi… Blanche…
At some point, someone beside him came to pull him away, and he looked up from a pair of ruins with some focus in front of him. The man seemed to look at him in surprise, and then he opened his mouth at him and said several words that he couldn’t hear at all.
There was more than a roaring in his ears, and York Charlie’s head suddenly went a little dizzy, and the light in his eyes grew dimmer and dimmer.
…
When the firefighters found York Charlie, it was already half an hour after their arrival. As soon as they came over, a man pulled them up and told them that there was a woman buried underneath, and that someone from their company was digging in there, and that they didn’t know where the man had gone.
Firefighters based on experience and the situation in front of them, quickly set the strategy of excavation and rescue. However, after they put in the rescue, they did not find York Charlie’s figure immediately, and only after digging for more than half an hour did they find York Charlie in the middle of a piece of rubble, who was already grimy-faced.
He bare hands there, hands bruised, bloodstained, the whole body does not have a clean place, but there are firefighters struggled to pull him out, he lifted his face at the moment, the pair of eyes are deep black certainty, let a person look at a moment of frozen.
Is this … anxious and crazy? There is no way, right? Firefighters have seen a lot of family members and friends of the victims, but they are still marveled by York Charlie s behavior. Inside … must be a person who is very important to him.
Firefighters advised him to go back, here to them, but the person in front of him as if he did not hear as if, but also hands to find, he also wanted to pull him, but I did not expect him to directly to the ground a crooked, fainted.
…
York Charlie woke up, in front of the eyes of the incandescent lighted concrete walls, he jerked from the couch sat up. His head was just clearing and the pain in his body reminded him of the events of the day. He craned his head around only to see Manager Pete and a man in a fire suit walk in.
He immediately stood up, “Where is she? Where is everyone?!”
He didn’t have control over his body, he didn’t hold on and he just passed out. It was dark when he fainted like that, and he didn’t know if they had found her, but when he saw the look on the faces of the two men in front of him, York Charlie suffocated in a puff of air almost at the same time, and they didn’t say anything, but he knew that-
She’s not here, she’s not found. She’s not here, she’s not found. She’s still buried in the rubble, out of sight! He didn’t know how badly she was hurt, whether she was conscious or unconscious, whether she was in pain and fear and suffering, or even whether she was dead!
York Charlie immediately headed out the door.
No one can stop him, the firefighter can only follow, can’t bear to tell him this fact, but still ruthlessly beside him, said, “It’s been a day and a half, our detector simply responded …”
York Charlie jerked to a halt and looked at him incredulously, “What did you say?” His aura was freezing cold, “A day and a half? Not half a day?!”
York Charlie finally yelled.
Manager Pete didn’t dare to run into the mouth of York Charlie’s gun, but he couldn’t just let York Charlie go over to look for the person again regardless, not only was it a big risk, but the person was also likely to be dead!
Even the life detector couldn’t detect the person, if not dead, what other possibilities are there?
For York Charlie’s excitement and anger, the fireman was not angry at all, but more sympathetic to him, sympathized with the murdered woman, and at the same time, he inevitably felt incredibly guilty.
How could so many of them have failed to save that person? The families and friends of the victims of these disasters, even including the victims themselves, have placed all their hopes on their firefighters ah!
York Charlie was completely out of his mind.
He thought he had just passed out for an afternoon, but he didn’t realize that when he finally woke up, it was already the night of the second day! No wonder he had just had an IV inserted in the back of his hand! He blamed himself infinitely for why he hadn’t been able to hold on! Maybe he hadn’t passed out and proceeded to dig down to the next place where Blanche Capra was?
Maybe she was buried down there all alone in pain and helplessness, waiting for him to come and save her, she had waited for him for so long, maybe the end of the long wait was just around the corner, how could he have fainted at that moment?
She was waiting, she must still be waiting! He was going to find her!
Those people behind him could no longer stop his desire to run to her.
