start with a pet store

Chapter 724 Midnight Rescue
Several people looked at each other, then looked at the squad leader: "Then let's go back first?"

"Go back, go back, let me play the progress in real time..." The girl who was called the squad leader waved her hand and said with a smile.

"Thank you, brothers and sisters, let's go back first..." Several girls said almost in unison.

Ji Ling tilted her head and waved goodbye to the girls with a smile.

Seeing the girls leaving one by one, Lu Jingxing called to them: "Get in the car, it takes twenty minutes to walk..."

Fortunately, it was a van, so a few people could still fit in it.

When the car arrived at the door, the security guard came over and asked, "What do you do?" He asked while looking at the car.

Lu Jing's car had the name of the store on it, which made the security guard take a second look.

Just as Lu Jingxing was about to say something, the squad leader shook down the glass: "Uncle Guo, it's me. I'll take my friend to the top floor to see the cat..."

"Oh, Yaqin, are these all your friends? Going to see the cat so late?" Apparently the security guard was quite familiar with the squad leader. He frowned slightly as he looked at the car full of men and women.

"Uncle, don't worry, they are all my friends. They came here specifically to help us rescue the cat on the roof..." The squad leader looked at everyone apologetically. When she saw the security guard opening the door, she sighed softly.

"Squad leader, you security guards are quite responsible..." Yang Pei followed the classmates in calling the girl.

"He lives next door to us and has watched me grow up since childhood, so..." The girl gave everyone a look that said they understand.

Everyone laughed.

The security guard was still shouting from behind: "Be sure to pay attention to safety when you go to the top of the building. Just take a look, don't just go and rescue..."

The squad leader stuck his head out of the window and shouted to the security guard: "I understand, Uncle Guo, we will pay attention to it, please go back..."

Under the command of the squad leader, the car found a location closest to their unit door.

Several people got out of the car together. Because it was too late, most people were asleep, and a few people were quiet and didn't make much noise.

"Did you hear its cry?" the girl in the red cotton jacket said suddenly.

"I heard..." Ji Ling turned around.

"The voice has become hoarse, but I can still hear its heart-rending cry every night..." The squad leader led everyone upstairs.

Lu Jingxing took a few tools from the car, and Yang Pei also took a flight case.

Ji Ling, who had reached the top of the stairs, ran back: "Get some cat strips or some cat food. If you can't save it tonight, you can give it some food then..."

"You're still thoughtful. It's so dark that we may not be able to save him tonight." Song Yuan looked up and sighed softly.

"It's okay, let's take a look first. If it's really difficult to operate at night, come back early tomorrow morning. Let's go up and have a look first..." Lu Jingxing took the pole set and followed closely behind the squad leader with everyone else.

On the seventh floor, everyone had not climbed this high for a long time, and everyone was panting when they reached the top.

The squad leader smiled cheerfully: "Brothers and sisters, you are too lacking in exercise. Look at me, I can go up to the seventh floor in one breath without even breathing..."

Everyone laughed: "You must have exercised by climbing every day, but you are right, we really lack exercise..."

As we got to the top of the building, the little guy's voice became more obvious.

The squad leader took everyone to the opening of the chimney.

The little guy's voice came from under the chimney.

The chimney is not big, square, and only about fifteen centimeters in diameter.

"Listen, it seems to be down there?" Lu Jingxing leaned against the chimney and listened carefully for a while.

"But even from the lower level, I can't see it. It turned around less than two floors ago. I don't know if it's stuck..." Yang Pei climbed on the edge of the chimney and looked inside. It was dark inside and there was nothing there. Out of sight.

"No wonder the fireman uncle can't get it out. Look, there's oil smoke all over here. I can feel the oil in my hand just by touching it..." Yang Pei turned around and asked Ji Ling: "Is there any paper in the bag?"

Ji Ling immediately took out a pack of wet wipes from the small bag she carried with her and gave it to Yang Pei.

Lu Jingxing turned on the big headlights and shined the light downwards. It could illuminate all the way to the turning position, but he did not see the little guy.

"Tie the camera to one end of the rope and put it in to see where the little guy is..." Ji Ling also came closer.

Lu Jingxing nodded. This seemed to be the only way at the moment.

As for the rope, the rope on the pole is long enough. Song Yuan took a pole and handed it over.

Lu Jingxing tied the camera to the pole from his pocket. Ji Ling opened a pack of cat strips and applied it to one end of the rope: "Let's see if the smell of the cat strips can attract the little guy after we put the camera down..."

"This is a solution, but I don't know if the little guy is stuck. If he is stuck, it will be difficult..."

Several people helped, tying and supporting, and the preparations were quickly completed.

Lu Jingxing turned on his phone, connected the camera and took a look: "It should be OK. I can also turn on the night light mode."

Yang Pei slowly put the rope down. Maybe he heard the sound coming from above, and the little guy stopped shouting.

After the rope stopped moving, Lu Jingxing said loudly: "I see it, I see it, it's here..."

Hearing Lu Jingxing's shout, everyone immediately came over, and the two students also stepped closer.

"See if it's stuck?" Looking at the light from the two little eyes, everyone was a little excited.

"Probably not, it can move..." The camera just happened to shine on the little guy's face.

Perhaps because he smelled the scent of the cat strips on the rope, the little guy crawled forward a few steps.

"Yang, move the rope and see if the little guy can move forward. If he can reach the opening of the turn, there is a chance to lasso him..." Lu Jingxing rushed to squat by the chimney with the lasso pole. Yang Pei said.

"But, we can't see it at all..." After watching the video on Lu Jingxing's cell phone, Song Yuan and Xi Wenxin were now squatting by the chimney and looking down together with Yang Pei.

"Yes, although there is a flashlight to shine, the distance is still too far, and it is too dark inside to shine very deep..." Yang Pei didn't care about whether there was oil on the chimney at this moment, and held on to it with one hand. While standing, the other hand was shaking the pole.

"The main thing is that the little guy seems to be a cow cat. It's even harder to see when it's dark inside. If it weren't for the reflection in the eyes, it would be useless even if we dropped the camera..." Ji Ling said with a slight frown.

"Hey, did the little guy come over smelling the smell, as if he was pulling the rope?" Suddenly Yang Pei shouted excitedly.

Lu Jingxing quickly opened the screen on his phone again: "That's right. The camera can only see the wall. The cat can't be seen, but the sound can be heard..."

The little guy's moans came from inside. It looked like he was so hungry that he didn't even have the most basic precautions.

"Try quickly, see if you can get it..." Lu Jingxing handed the phone to Ji Ling and immediately walked towards the chimney.

"I can't move this one. Why don't I take another one and put it on as a condom? I'll just let him eat this one. Maybe that's okay..." Yang Pei moved the one in his hand. The little guy managed to eat it and was willing to let it go. , lying on the rope the whole time without letting go of the claws.

"Yes, don't take it away. I'll bring the other pole and put the two down together." Lu Jingxing turned around and took the other pole.

Song Yuan took over Yang Pei's work and asked Yang Pei to help Lu Jingxing.

This rod set tool is very simple, but its effect is not ordinary.

As long as you can trap the little guy, you'll basically have no problem rescuing him.

Six or seven people came up together. Although everyone tried not to make too much noise, some who slept late or did not sleep deeply still climbed up out of curiosity.

The first person who came up was a bald man. He shouted loudly: "What are you doing? It's so late at night. Whose child is this? What should I do if I fall down after climbing so high..."

He lived on the seventh floor. When he heard a sound on the top of the building, he was the first to run up. He thought it was students on vacation and ran upstairs to play, so he came and shouted out of good intentions.

The monitor, Ji Ling, and her classmate were squatting in a corner where there was no wind. No one was facing the stairs at first, and they were really shocked when they heard the bald brother yelling.

After seeing the person, the squad leader immediately stood up and greeted him: "Uncle Zhao, it's me, Yaqin, my friend is here to help us save the kitten..."

The bald head was obviously taken aback when he saw Yaqin. You must know that Yaqin is a well-known good girl in the community, and she has lived there for a long time. Most people know her: "Yaqin, it's so late, why are you saving the cat? No Go home early, cat? Isn't that cat rescued yet?" He had been on a business trip for two days. When he went out, he knew that a cat fell in the chimney, but he didn't know that it hadn't been rescued yet.

"Yes, it screams every day. It's so pitiful. These friends of mine specialize in rescuing stray animals. They came here specially tonight..." The monitor hurriedly gestured with the bald uncle.

At this time, two more people came up to the stairs. Seeing the bald head and the squad leader, they were stunned for a moment: "What's going on? Why are you here? Is this Yaqin?"

The squad leader immediately shouted: "Village Chief, it's me, we are saving that cat..."

The bald head touched his bald head: "Why are you here too? Did you come up when you heard some noise? Me too. I came up when I heard some noise just as I was getting ready to sleep. Yaqin said that she called a friend to help save the cat..."

The man called the village chief took out a cigarette and handed it to the bald head and the people who came up with him. Then he said: "Isn't this nonsense? We called the fire department today, but no one was rescued. You kids are so late." What are you doing here? Go back quickly so that your parents won’t worry..."

He thought that the class monitor must have called her classmates, so he said a little seriously out of concern for his elders.

Ji Ling gave the phone to the classmate in the red cotton-padded jacket, stood up, walked to the stairs and said with a smile: "Hello, we are not Yaqin's classmates. We run a pet hospital. We accidentally heard Yaqin's voice during dinner in the evening. They were talking about kittens, so we came here specially. Don’t worry, we all have rich rescue experience..."
