Fire Chief vs. Surgeon: A Tale of Relentless Pursuit
Chapter 20: Feeling Somewhat Oppressed

Chapter 20: Chapter 20: Feeling Somewhat Oppressed

Lai Xingchen felt it was really tough for him, being the only person in the team who knew about Captain Jiang and Doctor Lu’s relationship. Sometimes, well... it was really quite something.

Moreover, why wasn’t Captain Jiang coming? Surely, Doctor Lu, you ought to know best, right?

Cough cough.

Of course, he could only mutter this to himself in his heart, not daring to say it aloud even if he had the courage of both a bear and a leopard.

"Doctor Lu, Captain Jiang went back early this morning and went crazy. Everyone was pulled out for training before they even had breakfast, and it’s still going on..."

It wasn’t just harsh!

Several have already vomited from the training, and one person with low blood sugar even passed out and was taken to the clinic.

So, he was really curious.

What on earth had Doctor Lu done?

To make Captain Jiang go so mad?

The firefighters were literally like, "Lying in bed, disaster strikes from the sky!"

As Lai Xingchen spoke, he even proactively handed over his smartphone:

"Doctor Lu, take a look."

Lu Jing didn’t really want to look, but since the phone was handed right under his eyes, he couldn’t refuse any longer and reached out to take it.

On the phone was the WeChat group created by the fire brigade, where someone had posted several videos from the scene.

What Lu Jing saw were young men, not very old, drenched from head to toe, their hair dripping wet.

Beside him, Lai Xingchen began to explain promptly:

"This is during the water jet targeting training, with the purpose of teaching the fighters to properly handle the hose and rapidly hit the target."

Lu Jing didn’t really understand these fire brigade things and simply nodded in confusion.

At that moment, the video automatically played the second clip, showing a three-story building with several safety ropes hanging from the walls.

"This is our training tower, mainly for practice in using safety ropes for rescue."

A three-story building, and the firefighters were jumping down without hesitation. Lu Jing’s heart trembled at the sight:

"Is it safe?" he asked.

Lai Xingchen chuckled twice:

"Well, how can I put it? The training is pretty safe.

But when it comes to actual emergencies, who knows.

At a fire scene, you’re always facing life and death, so, it’s all down to fate!"

Lu Jing frowned immediately:

"Firefighting is a high-risk job, isn’t there any security in terms of safety?"

"Actually, domestic protection measures for firefighters are already very, very adequate.

But accidents, those are something no one can guarantee."

"Knowing it’s dangerous, why still choose to be a firefighter?" Lu Jing asked this question quite puzzled and also casually.

Lai Xingchen didn’t ponder much and began to reply:

"In this world, there will always be people who perform every profession.

The fire brigade, as a force trained day in and day out, comes from the people and serves the people at any time, and is called the guardians of the people.

If no one chooses to become a firefighter, then who will protect the people, who will fight fires, handle emergencies, and protect the safety of people’s lives and property?"

Lu Jing was profoundly moved, hearing someone talk about facing life and death so calmly for the first time.

As if, they were always prepared.

So, was he thinking the same?

Suddenly, he felt an indescribable, oppressive, and uncomfortable feeling, unable to be expressed in words, weighing heavily on him.

At that moment, Lai Xingchen swore:

"Doctor Lu, someone vomited again during training!"

Indeed.

The person in the video was vomiting vehemently, all the undigested food from the night before coming out.
