Chapter 185 Jenny Was Buried

Crawling through the hole, Jenny followed the sounds of crying and quickly located the kids, who were

lucky enough to be hiding in the corner of the wall, forming a triangle of life that spared them from being

crushed by the rubble.

She walked over and called out softly, “Lilian, Justin, are you hurt?”

The kids were shocked to hear someone speaking, and they broke into tears when they recognized

Jenny. “Jenny!”

They crawled out and quickly ran to her, finally crying out loud when they were safe in her arms. She

comforted them until their crying softened. Then, she confirmed with them again, “Are The kids shook

their heads, but tears welled up in their eyes again. “Daddy and Mommy are still in there…”

you hurt?”

Her gaze followed the direction they were pointing. She saw nothing but a collapsed wall and guessed

that the couple must have been in another room when the earthquake struck. Since she hadn’t heard a

sound from them after entering the house, she knew things weren’t looking good. If they couldn’t rescue

the couple on time, there might be no hope at all.

At the thought of it, she told the kids, “I’ll bring you out and come back to save your daddy and mommy.

Alright?”

“Okay.” The kids nodded obediently. Jenny lifted Lilian and went to the hole. After sending Lilian to

safety, she came back for Justin.

“Jenny, Daddy and Mommy will be fine, right?” The five-year-old curled up in her arms. He was more

aware of the situation compared to his three-year-old sister.

With a heavy heart, Jenny promised him, “I’ll try my best. You have to believe that your daddy and

mommy are trying their best. They must want to see you and your sister again.”

“Okay.” Justin nodded and fell silent.

Just as they inched closer to the hole, they heard a deafening sound, which triggered Jenny to squat

down in a corner with Justin in her arms.

“There’s an aftershock!” someone yelled from the top of the rubble, and the rescuers had no choice but

to leave momentarily to avoid being hit by the houses and falling rocks.

When the aftershock subsided a few minutes later, everyone hurried over to check on the Bayer house.

However, they went silent when they realized that the hole was buried. The chief was the first to respond

and yelled at the rescuers, “Why are you still standing there doing nothing? Start digging!”

Everyone answered his call and started digging away. Suddenly, they heard a rumbling. Just when they

were about to escape, thinking it was an aftershock, someone looked up and froze.

“Is that a helicopter?” The villagers were unsure about the foreign object in the sky.

The chief, who had more exposure, immediately reacted. “Someone’s here to save us! We’re saved!”

“Hey! We’re here!” someone roared at the helicopter to attract the attention of the rescuers. Little did they

know that no one in the helicopter could hear them because of the altitude.

Alec’s eyes scanned the ground, and he spotted no humans. There was only rubble and more rubble.”

Have we arrived?” he asked the pilot in front of him.

The pilot answered, “Judging from the geolocation, Clearwater is somewhere near.”

“Let’s get ready for landing.”

The pilot nodded at Alec and started descending.

Clearwater didn’t have much flat ground, especially after the earthquakes. The only place they could land

was in front of the village hall.

The villagers dispersed when they saw the helicopter landing. Everyone was anticipating the arrival of

the huge and unfamiliar object with a look of curiosity.

When Alec alighted from the helicopter, the chief immediately went up to him. “My friend, are you sent

here by the higher-ups to rescue us? Please save Dr. Walter right now!”
