Lu Jing instantly changed direction and headed towards the hospital ward.
Lai Xingchen had been ranting non-stop, truly feeling sorry for his comrades, and didn’t notice when someone appeared at the door.
So that when he suddenly noticed, he got a big fright.
"Lu... Doctor Lu?" he stammered.
"You were cursing so fluently just now, why are you stuttering now?"
It’s because you’re Demon Jiang’s woman, isn’t it?
Who wouldn’t be scared in front of the sister-in-law?
Besides, he had just been swearing in front of her, which was quite embarrassing.
Lai Xingchen chuckled twice, then scratched the back of his head, not daring to voice the complaints he had in mind.
Lu Jing then asked again:
"What did you just say about an explosive?"
Lai Xingchen’s expression immediately became serious:
"Doctor Lu, do you know about the fire at the logistic base this noon?"
"Mm, I saw the news, wasn’t it caused by a chemical leak?"
"If it was just a fire caused by a chemical leak, it wouldn’t be too hard to deal with.
But the problem is, it’s not just a simple chemical leak. According to the on-site investigation, there was a small warehouse at the site storing potassium nitrate, sodium nitrate, and other nitrates.
These solid oxidizers can easily explode when heated or collided.
And now, that small warehouse has been blown into a big hole."
Just hearing about it made Lu Jing very nervous:
"Then, were there any injuries?" he asked.
Lai Xingchen let out a heavy sigh:
"Some of our team members were injured, two security personnel were seriously injured, and one died on the spot."
"Yes, it was Captain Jiang who spotted the problem early and ordered an emergency evacuation, otherwise the casualties would have been much greater!
The small warehouse owner was actually on site all the time but never once mentioned that there were at least several hundred kilograms of sodium cyanide stored inside, he really deserves to be condemned!"
Plainly put, the small warehouse owner was just hoping by chance, thinking that the fire had been mostly controlled with the firefighters present, and the materials in his warehouse, if treated, would mean significant losses, so he kept quiet.
Unfortunately, it still ended up exploding.
In an instant, Lu Jing’s heart felt like it was going to jump out, thumping rapidly.
He gently placed a hand over it, biting his lip:
"Then, how is your Captain Jiang...?"
He was still too worried.
How could Lai Xingchen not understand?
"Captain Jiang is fine, Doctor Lu, don’t worry, they should be back soon."
In that moment, his heart, which had been oppressed all afternoon, felt much lighter. Latest content publıshed on novel·fire·net
It’s fine then, otherwise...
Well, there’s really no otherwise, worrying a bit is totally reasonable, right?
"Doctor Lu, Doctor Lu?"
Lai Xingchen called out twice before Lu Jing snapped back:
"Doctor Lu, you’re really worried about Captain Jiang, aren’t you? Then why..."
It was purely gossip.
Lu Jing coughed and tried to remain composed:
Lai Xingchen wore a ’Doctor Lu, do you think I’m easy to fool?’ expression.
Knowing he couldn’t fool him, he felt a bit ashamed inside:
"Alright, let’s say I’m concerned about him.
But your Captain Jiang probably never told you, did he, that we’ve known each other since we were little?
Given the relationship between our two families, it’s only natural for me to care about his safety!"
Anyway, it’s just: putting on a brave face!
Known each other since childhood?
This sudden news stunned Lai Xingchen:
"Doctor Lu, then, how early is ’from childhood’?" he babbled.
"About when I was three years old."
Lai Xingchen truly was taken aback.
