Chapter 353 Asking for help
Chapter 353 Asking for help
The thick frozen ice had just been broken by the icebreaker, and the hard broken ice was still sharp and angular.
It should be high tide at this time, and the waves can be seen surging at the broken sea surface.
No matter how cold the weather is or how low the temperature is, the sea water cannot freeze again instantly.
So if someone falls into the sea at this time, it would be really fatal. When the tide is rising, the ocean currents below are changing rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, a person may be swept away dozens of meters by the ocean current.
Everyone knew the danger, so when they heard someone shout "someone fell into the sea", everyone's face changed.
Everyone started talking in panic: "Oh my God!"
"Hurry up and save people!"
"What's going on? It's killing me!"
……
Suddenly, everyone on the coast and on the icebreaker became anxious.
Some people were preparing to put on life jackets and go down to rescue people, while others started tying life ropes.
Because the sea water under the ice is more dangerous, a life rope must be tied, otherwise the person who goes down to rescue people may also be in danger.
Everything was in chaos.
Ye Shu was right there and rushed to the beach as soon as he heard the call for help.
However, the moment her hand touched the sea surface, she stopped and did not move.
She felt a little strange because she didn't feel anyone in the sea.
In case her perception was wrong, she immersed both her hands in the sea water, closed her eyes and concentrated to sense it carefully.
There were all kinds of creatures in the sea, but as far as she could sense them, there were no people.
There are no living people, and no dead people either.
Moreover, she was surprised to see a rapidly sinking rock just below the sea surface where the icebreaker was located.
This was because she reacted quickly. If she had been slower, the stone would have sunk to the bottom of the sea.
Ye Shu stood up and subconsciously looked towards the icebreaker.
Out of her sight, behind the icebreaker, a small boat was quietly and quickly lowered onto the sea surface and then quickly left.
Ye Shu: “…”
She guessed it instantly. This must be Zhao Xingyang's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain?
He first asked people to create chaos on the side of the icebreaker close to the shore to attract everyone's attention, and then he quickly left in a small boat from the other side.
If you pay a little attention, you will notice that the soldiers on the icebreaker were shouting for help and busy putting on life jackets and tying life ropes, but they couldn't get into the water for a long time!
Zhao Xingyang teamed up with the people on the icebreaker to set up a trap for Xi Zhiling to watch, but the onlookers on the shore didn't know about it!
Because this icebreaker is not a military-level secret, and once the experiment is successful it will be used in the ports of No. 3 Island and Dafeng, so when it was launched for testing, many people came to watch.
There are fishermen on the island and comrades from the family compound.
And because Island No. 3 is closed for several months every winter, everyone is very concerned about whether the icebreaker can be built.
After all, this is a major event that is closely related to everyone at sea!
There were so many people gathered on the shore, and they all heard the noise that someone had fallen into the sea.
Naturally, some people also saw Ye Shu there.
When they saw her quickly run to the ice and squat down, then stop moving, and then slowly stand up after a while, they couldn't help but look at her.
Ye Shu noticed it, but she didn't say anything. She just looked at Xi Zhiling.
Then I saw Xi Zhiling standing calmly on the shore, her eyes fixed in a certain direction on the icebreaker.
Suddenly, a voice rang out beside Ye Shu: "Aren't you a good swimmer? You've even been rewarded for saving people in the past. Why aren't you going in to save people today?"
The sea breeze was howling, which affected hearing. Ye Shu heard some voices, but couldn't make out who was speaking.
Turning around, it was Zhou Jinping.
Ye Shu glanced at her calmly and said, "Let's find out the situation first."
Zhou Jinping was still lingering: "...But that was a life!"
Ye Shu watched from afar and saw that there seemed to be a commotion on the icebreaker. Soon, two guards of Commander Zhao came down with Zhao Xingyang.
It turned out that Xi Zhiling had anticipated his behavior and had made all the necessary arrangements.
Zhao Xingyang thought that what he had done was flawless and he could definitely escape today!
In fact, everything is under Xi Zhiling's control.
Zhao Xingyang still wanted to save face, and he couldn't really let the two guards take him away in front of everyone, so he struggled and said, "Let me go! I can walk by myself!"
Xi Zhiling didn't want the matter to become known to everyone, so she signaled the guards to let go.
Everyone saw this and thought they were having an internal family conflict.
These days, this kind of thing is very common in a family like theirs.
The younger ones are always disobedient, and the older ones suppress them with force. If there are no guards, the older ones do it themselves, and if there are guards, they let the guards do it for them.
So it’s no wonder that everyone’s attention is still on the sea. What should be done with the people who fall into the sea?
Zhou Jinping had a cold face and kept lecturing Ye Shu, thinking that she couldn't give up a life just for her own selfish reasons!
Ye Shu listened in one ear and out the other. When she finished, he pointed at the soldiers on the icebreaker and asked, "Have you seen them? Do they look like they're going to go into the sea to rescue people?"
Ever since Zhao Xingyang was taken off the icebreaker, the soldiers who had just pretended to go into the sea to rescue people stopped moving.
Zhou Jinping was stunned, obviously not understanding what was going on.
Ye Shu said calmly, "If someone really fell into the sea, would they just stand there and do nothing?"
She looks quite smart, so how can she be even dumber than her, who becomes stupid for three years after pregnancy?
Ye Shu ignored her and went back happily after confirming that the icebreaker had been successful.
She didn't want to get involved in the affairs between Zhao Xingyang and his mother. After all, it was someone else's family affair. Every family has its own problems, and it would not be easy for her, an outsider, to interfere.
As a result, in the evening, Xi Zhiling actually came to her house to find her.
Just because of Zhao Xingyang's matter, I came to her to ask about Zhu Lai Di.
Xi Zhiling: "Xiao Ye, Auntie has something I want to ask you for help."
She originally wanted Huo Yisheng to leave so that she could talk to Ye Shu alone, but Huo Yisheng was a "lack of tact" person and just stayed beside Ye Shu without moving.
Still dissatisfied with her suggestive look: "Aunt Xi, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. If my wife can't help, I'll see if I can help!"
But don't think that Huo Yisheng is eager to help others. He is worried that his wife can't handle Xi Zhiling's social skills. What if there is something difficult to help, and she is embarrassed to refuse, or can't find a reason to refuse, it will be unfair to his wife!
But with him around, nothing is a problem!
How could Xi Zhiling not understand what this kid was up to?
She was just too lazy to expose him. She couldn't control his thoughts anyway. Thinking about it, there didn't seem to be anything she said that he couldn't know.
Moreover, she did have something to secretly advise him, so she just said it directly.
