Chapter 30 Pull Me Out Quickly
Que Dongjin wanted to tell Zhang Dahu about how he defuses the bomb in the morning, but after thinking about it, he held back.
"Dahu, your bomb disposal skills are better than mine, why are you afraid? To be honest, I'm not afraid. It's just that the environment is a little harsh. As long as the bomb disposal skills are good, more obstacles are no big deal." Jiang Wukui said to Zhang Dahu.
"Okay, everyone should be careful! You know, the last time we went on a mission, something big happened to the demolition team. Bomb disposal is more dangerous than installing a bomb." Que Dongjin said.
"That's true. However, after all, it's just training in the afternoon, not actual combat. There's no need to worry too much!" Li Jianwei didn't care.
"I told you to stop talking, okay?" Zhang Dahu no longer had his former arrogance, and he didn't even straighten his chest.
Li Jianwei and Jiang Wukui found that Zhang Dahu was a little strange, so they stopped talking.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, everyone gathered at the training ground. Four instructors stood beside Director Li, and all the students were nervous and quiet.
This training session seemed really important. Not only were all four instructors here, but Director Li was also here! This was never the case with previous training sessions!
Director Li began his speech. His speech was very brief. He mainly talked about the importance of this live-ammunition bomb disposal and told everyone that the environment for bomb disposal would change with people. How it would change specifically would be determined by their own chief instructor, who would also install the bomb in advance.
Director Li's words made the atmosphere tense, and the whole air seemed to be filled with the smell of gunpowder! Zhang Dahu's heart was lifted up, and he silently muttered in his heart, "Don't let me defuse the bomb under the table!"
Que Dongjin was also praying in his heart: "Instructor Gao, please don't let Zhang Dahu defuse the bomb under the table! I will help him overcome the obstacles slowly in the future. God bless him!"
Li Jianwei and Jiang Wukui were a little nervous, but they comforted themselves in their hearts, what's the big deal, their skills are among the best, if they can't pass, then most of the students will be defeated, right?
The bomb disposal has just begun.
Instructor Li Lexuan had already installed a bomb. The bomb was installed on an upright sign, and ordinary people could not reach it even if they stood on it. However, no one cared about this. Isn't it just a matter of moving a chair and standing on it?
"Zheng Jun, step out!" Li Lexuan shouted.
"Here!" Zheng Jun responded and saluted several instructors with a smile on his face.
"Three minutes to defuse the bomb! Be careful! Let's start!" Li Lexuan looked at Zheng Jun seriously.
"Yes!" Zheng Jun replied, first moved a chair and placed it under the bomb, then stood on the chair with the tools and carefully observed the circuit.
Dozens of people looked at Zheng Jun. He looked for a long time before he used a tool to remove the wire. The training ground was quiet, without any sound. Even the ticking sound of the bombs could be heard.
Two minutes passed and Zheng Jun still didn't cut the wire. The students were all worried about him.
"Zheng Jun, calm down, you can do it! Fifty seconds left!" Li Lexuan encouraged him.
Zheng Jun didn't answer or look back. He started to cut the wire. With a "click", the flashing lights of the bomb went out.
"Good! Good!" the students cheered.
"Quiet, quiet! The second student will start soon! Look, Instructor Gao has already installed the bomb!" said Director Li.
After hearing what Director Li said, everyone looked at the bomb installed by Gao Weilan. The bomb was installed under a large table, less than half a meter from the ground. People underneath could not turn around at all, and could only lie on their backs outside, prop themselves up and look up to operate it.
Que Dongjin was shocked when he saw this scene. He thought, don't call Zhang Dahu! Let me do it myself!
In fact, except for Zhang Dahu, the other three students under Gao Weilan were not afraid. They were just lying on the ground, and the light inside was a little dim. What was the big deal?
Zhang Dahu was terrified. He prayed, "God, God, please don't let me lie down there to defuse the bomb! Please don't!"
"Zhang Dahu!" Instructor Gao Weilan shouted.
There was no response. Everyone's eyes were focused on Zhang Dahu.
"Zhang—Da—Hu!" Instructor Gao Weilan looked at Zhang Dahu and called out word by word.
"Here!" Zhang Dahu finally reacted and walked out of the queue.
Que Dongjin looked at Zhang Dahu and made a gesture to him to calm him down and encourage him.
"Calm down! You must stay calm, don't panic!" Zhang Dahu encouraged himself.
"The bomb disposal begins. We only have three minutes left! Be careful!" Instructor Gao said as he pressed the start device!
"Calm down! Don't be afraid! Don't panic! You must stay calm and concentrate!" Zhang Dahu muttered to himself, put the tools under the table, then lay on the ground, looked up at the sky, and moved his body under the table.
Zhang Dahu felt that he was under the bomb. He opened his eyes and saw the light on the bomb flashing. He whispered softly, "Calm down, stay calm, concentrate, don't think, don't think, don't think!"
As Zhang Dahu was muttering, the flashing light on the bomb slowly grew bigger in his mind! The light turned into a sea of fire!
The students were all looking intently at Zhang Dahu under the table. They couldn't see his expression and no one spoke. The air seemed to have stopped circulating, giving people a feeling of suffocation. Que Dongjin's heart was in his throat. He looked at the time, ready to take action at any time.
Que Dongjin knew that he would be punished for making decisions on his own. However, he had already prepared himself for the punishment. He thought, if there were only ten seconds left and Zhang Dahu hadn't completed the task, he would definitely rush up and drag him out!
Instructor Gao Weilan looked at Zhang Dahu, with a . She said in her heart, if you try to steal the person I love from you, you will become a clown even if you don't die. I'll see you steal from me! Humph!
Zhang Dahu seemed to see his father and mother flying into the sky in the shrapnel. He quickly closed his eyes and reminded himself again in his heart, "Don't think about it, don't think about it! Calm down! Concentrate on completing the task!"
Zhang Dahu tried hard to control himself and adjust himself. He tried hard to calm himself down.
When Zhang Dahu opened his eyes again, he heard the voice of Instructor Gao Weilan: "Zhang Dahu! Calm down! I believe you can do it! Focus! There is only one minute left!"
"One more minute! One more minute! No! I have to concentrate!" Zhang Dahu reminded himself in his heart, looking at the bomb. The flashing lights on it were getting bigger and bigger!
Zhang Dahu was scared, his hands and feet began to cramp! He closed his eyes, tried to support himself with his hands, and stepped back from the table. He wanted to step back, because he knew that he would not be able to complete this mission anyway! If he didn't step back, he would be killed! Even if he wasn't killed, he would be disabled!
Zhang Dahu was even more frightened at the thought of becoming disabled! He suddenly shouted loudly: "I want to get out! I want to get out! I can't move! Pull me out! Pull me out!"
The students were all panicked! No one had expected such a situation to happen!
Instructor Gao Weilan looked at the time. There were still twenty seconds left. The smile on his lips appeared unconsciously again. Director Li looked at her and noticed the smile on her lips!
Que Dongjin suddenly rushed out, ran to Zhang Dahu, squatted down, grabbed his feet, and pulled him out with all his might.
Zhang Dahu was pulled out, but he still wouldn't move.
"Hurry! Stand up! Stay away!" Que Dongjin shouted loudly.
"Que Dongjin! Go away! It's going to explode!" Gao Weilan saw Que Dongjin looking at Zhang Dahu, angry and annoyed, and afraid that something might happen to him, so she shouted.
When Que Dongjin heard the shouting, he suddenly realized that Zhang Dahu was still in danger, so he bent down and continued to drag him.
With a "bang" sound, Que Dongjin quickly pounced on Zhang Dahu.
The table was blown off!
Everyone ran towards Que Dongjin!
"Dongjin! How are you!"
"Dongjin! Are you okay?"
Li Jianwei and Jiang Wukui squatted beside Que Dongjin and shouted.
"I'm fine. Let's go see how Dahu is doing." Que Dongjin said as he rolled over and fell to the side. He was so scared that he had no strength left. Fortunately, he was not injured.
Zhang Dahu looked at everyone, still in shock, and said nothing. He knew that if Que Dongjin had rescued him, his life might have been ruined.
"Zhang Dahu, what's wrong with you? Your bomb disposal skills should be good enough! How could this happen to you?" Instructor Gao Weilan came over and asked with concern.
Instructor Wang stood beside Zhang Dahu and looked at Instructor Gao with a cold expression on his face. Instructor Li Lexuan looked at Zhang Dahu in surprise. She felt very strange.
Director Li glared at Instructor Gao Weilan and left.
"I, I'm scared! Dongjin, are you okay?" Zhang Dahu looked at Que Dongjin beside him and finally spoke.
"Don't be afraid. It's okay. Don't be afraid." Gao Weilan said while holding Zhang Dahu's head.
"Let's do the live-ammunition bomb disposal training another day!" Director Li, who had already walked a few steps, returned and said this before leaving again.
"Okay, let's disperse first! Go to your own training! Wait for notification for the next live-ammunition bomb disposal training!" Instructor Gao Weilan said as she picked up Zhang Dahu and let him rest his head on her shoulder.
"Instructor Gao, I, I have brought shame upon you. Please punish me!" Zhang Dahu said to the kind instructor Gao Weilan.
"Don't talk about this. You may have a psychological barrier. You will not be punished this time. You should adjust your mindset and try to break through this psychological barrier." Instructor Gao Weilan's voice was soft, and she comforted Zhang Dahu with a smile.
Instructor Wang looked at Zhang Dahu, a cloud of dark clouds on her face. She looked at Que Dongjin who had already stood up, and left alone.
Que Dongjin looked at Zhang Dahu and thought, if Zhang Dahu doesn't break through this psychological barrier, what will he do if he encounters such a situation when performing tasks in the future? How can I help him get through this?
