Chapter 222 Rebirth from the Ashes

Liushi, North District Fire and Rescue Station.

Xu Bo put on his dark blue uniform and yellow helmet, and quietly came to the garage.

He struggled to pick up a water gun, held it in his arms, and twisted the switch with his left hand.

With a little effort, my right hand trembled, and the water gun fell to the ground with a bang.

He bent down with difficulty, and it took him a long time to pick up the water gun again.

After much effort, he finally held the water gun steady and turned the switch.

A white water column spewed out instantly.

Seeing this familiar scene, Xu Bo's eyes instantly became moist.

In order to hold the water gun steadily, he has secretly practiced in the garage for a long time. As long as he continues to practice and slowly catch up with the training rhythm of his teammates, he will soon be able to return to the front line of firefighting.

Thinking of this, he smiled contentedly.

After practicing for a while, he felt tired for a while, so he took off his helmet and returned to the office.

The teammates had all gone on missions, and the room was empty.

He had nothing to do for a while, and he was stunned.

Suddenly, orange-red flames appeared in front of his eyes, and thick smoke billowed in, engulfing him.

There was the sound of "crackling" explosions in my ears, mixed with the sound of crying and pleading for help.

The white water jets sprayed on the flames, and the fire became more violent.

This is a private house on fire. The fire erupted from the second floor and has set the whole building on fire.

There are countless sundries piled up in the room, and the space is very small, and the teammates are constantly spraying with water guns.

Amidst the noise, a middle-aged woman suddenly rushed over, knelt on the ground and kept begging.

"My daughter is still inside, please save her!"

Xu Bo immediately stood up and applied to the captain: "Captain, I have rescued fires in this situation and have some experience. Let me go and make sure to complete the task and rescue the girl."

The captain nodded, and sent him and another teammate into the fire scene to rescue the survivors.

The water gun sprayed more fiercely, and Xu Bo, who was wearing an air respirator, was the first to rush in with a bright light in his hand.

He stooped ahead and walked to the smoke area on the second floor.

The smoke was so thick that I could only see a few centimeters in front of my eyes, and I didn't know where I went.

He kept calling the girl's name, and heard a faint response.

The two followed the sound, and soon found the crying girl at the corner of the stairs.

The teammate led the girl in front, and he followed closely behind.

Suddenly, there was an explosion next to it, and the air became extremely hot.

A heat wave rushed in like a huge wave, his mind went blank instantly, and he was thrown to the ground directly.

Relying on his survival instinct, he immediately got up, followed the voice of his teammates shouting, and ran out staggeringly.

I ran all the way to a safe place, only to find that my clothes were covered in fire.

As soon as the clothes were taken off, the skin and flesh on the arms rustled down the clothes.

Intense pain came from every part of his body, especially his hands, it was so painful.

"Ah~", he couldn't help crying out in pain, and then he woke up.

Then he showed a wry smile, and he fell into a nightmare again.

Since he returned to his post, whenever he was free and dazed, the fire that happened half a year ago would appear in his mind.

Xu Bo trembled all over, the severe pain from his body just now was still fresh in his memory.

"It seems that I will never forget that day." He thought helplessly, reaching out to the cup on the table, wanting to pick it up and drink water.

This is a pair of hands reborn after the catastrophe, full of irregular folds and scars, and several fingers cannot be bent.

If you don't know his experience, you will definitely think that these are the hands of a pair of ancient and rare old people.

However, this is the disability and trauma left by the fire half a year ago.

It is also a glorious symbol of his participation in the rescue of more than 2,000 fires and the rescue of more than 100 victims.

In that fire, an explosion occurred suddenly at the scene. Unfortunately, Xu Bo was affected by the explosion. He was burned to pieces, and all ten fingers were severely deformed.

He suffered third-degree burns to his hands and forearms, second-degree burns to his legs and neck, and burns to 60% of his body.

Third-degree burns, also known as eschar burns, cause the skin to lose its elasticity and become leathery.

After he was out of danger, he underwent many skin grafting operations, but the scars remained on his body forever.

There are dense scars all over his arms and neck, which looks very scary.

And he can no longer be like an ordinary person.

Before he was discharged from the hospital, the doctor repeatedly told him not to take part in firefighting missions, and he could only move around in an air-conditioned constant temperature room.

But he insisted on returning to the front line of firefighting and returned to the team.

After being discharged from the hospital, he worked hard to overcome the pain, strengthened his exercise every day, and even sneaked to the garage to practice water guns.

All of this is for one goal.

Fight again on the front line of fire rescue!

Suddenly, the phone on the table rang.

Xu Bo stretched out his left hand and picked up the phone with great difficulty. Just as he picked it up, the phone dropped on the table again.

He had no choice but to turn on the speakerphone and answer the call.

"Hey, Xu Bo, I have some great news for you." On the other end of the phone was his attending doctor, who had performed 6 skin transplant operations for him.

The doctor didn't wait for his response, and continued on his own.

"I just got a good news. Sanqing Pharmaceutical has released a special scar cream that can treat your scars. I have already contacted Sanqing Group. They are very supportive and provided me with some medicines. You Come over as soon as you are free."

Xu Bo couldn't believe it: "Doctor, do you mean that such a serious scar on my body can be recovered by just applying some ointment?"

"Yeah, it's really amazing. If I hadn't read the clinical trial report, I'm afraid I wouldn't believe it. But this is a great thing for you. No matter how effective it is, you have to try it. Come here quickly."

Xu Bo was overjoyed and pleasantly surprised, and quickly agreed.

After hanging up the phone, he looked at the phone and was in a daze, as if falling into a dream.

What happened just now was too sudden and surprising.

It was like a beautiful dream, which made him feel at a loss for a moment, and he couldn't believe it at all.

For a long time, he didn't think about the scars on his body, ignored their impact, and devoted himself to recovery and work.

Only by maintaining a positive and optimistic attitude can he live strong.

But he is not a fool, he naturally knows what this hideous scar means and what impact it will have on him.

Even now, from time to time, he re-felt the pangs of being seared by the flames.

This huge trauma, like a huge iceberg lurking under the surface of the sea, will surface unconsciously, allowing him to experience the recurring pain of the past.

To completely solve this sequelae, either wait for time to heal the scars, or remove the scars on the body.

Only in this way can he pretend that this incident never happened, so as to completely forget this nightmare.

Now, finally there is an opportunity in front of him.

He can be a normal person again.

Maybe the fingers will still be disabled, but if all the scars on the body can be removed, it is already a new life.

You know, he is not married yet. After this happened, he had already given up the idea of ​​getting married and having children.

But now, a small flame called hope ignited again in his heart.
