Billionaire's Reborn Baby -
Chapter 907 Looking for Someone (3)
"Doctor Mueller?"
"Yes?" Collin suddenly came back to his senses. Jade was spooked, "Anything wrong, doctor?"
Collin pursed and looked at her as if he remembered something, "Nothing. What did just you call me?"
"Doctor Mueller. Is it okay to call you this way?" Jade was a little embarrassed.
A waiter served the dishes.
After the waiter left, Collin nodded and said lightly, "Sure."
At nine o'clock in the evening, Roxanne moved her eyes away from the door for the third time. She could not stay focused. The manuscript in front of her was abridged and edited seven or eight times. The phone on the table was fully charged. Roxanne checked and there were no phone calls or text messages.
Roxanne went to the kitchen and cooked something simple. Before she started to eat, the phone rang. She walked over and found it was from the editor.
"Damn, Roxanne! Something just happened to your doctor Mueller!"
Roxanne was stunned there for three seconds without any reaction. She hung up the phone and dialed Collin's number. A robotic female voice came from inside, "Sorry, the phone you dialed has been turned off."
Roxanne called the editor again, "Is it in the hospital or where? What happened?"
"I just heard from a nurse in the hospital that Doctor Mueller was injured. He went to Heving City to join the rescue, and maybe something fell from the collapsed building and hit him. We don't know how his condition is! The nurse ran away in a hurry before I could ask more about it."
After Roxanne hung up the phone, she took her bag and quickly grabbed everything on the table and stuffed them into the bag. Keys, phone, wallet, and some bread from the fridge.
When Roxanne came out to take a taxi, she found that she was wearing pajamas. Fortunately, she took a coat when she went out. She put on her clothes and said to the driver as soon as she got in the car, "Quick, to Heving City."
Heving City was more than an hour away in the car from City There was now a rainstorm and a flood rampaging in Heving City, and many cars couldn't get there.
The driver asked in confusion, "Heving City? That place is a mess now. What do you want to do there?"
Roxanne was in a hurry, "To replace someone. Hurry up! Are 300 dollars enough?"
For the sake of money, the driver started the car. Seeing that Roxanne was so anxious that she was sweating, he could not help but ask, "Who are you looking for over there?" Roxanne didn't speak.
The driver drove very fast on the way. Roxanne kept calling Collin's phone, but the only thing she heard was the same old robotic voice.
At half-past ten, the car finally pulled over. Roxanne stepped into the cold water and paid the driver. She hurriedly called the editor, "Where is it?"
The editor was terrified, "Wait, you're in Heving City now? I don't know where he is! You can check a rescue station somewhere and ask around. The station could be where the most casualties are." Roxanne hung up the phone.
Roxanne stepped on the water all the way, and she never stopped asking around, "Where is the rescue team of the hospital?"
Some people knew that some didn't. Roxanne had lost count of how many people she had asked along the way. When she finally got to the station, she had lost one of her shoes. Something she stepped left a cut under her feet and there was blood dripping into the water. Walking in the water that have reached her knees, she strode to where the ambulance was as if she felt no pain.
At eleven o'clock in the evening, the electricity was down. Various things were in the flood such as bicycles, woods, all kinds of mops and basins, and animals.
There were also snakes.
Roxanne was fearless. It was dark along the way, and there was only the light of the ambulance that guided her forward.
Seven or eight ambulances were parked in an empty space. People were carrying stretchers on which were the perished. Under the light, the faces of those bodies were pale and purple. Many nurses were lying on the edge of the trash can and vomiting.
Roxanne stopped a man and asked, "Where is Doctor Mueller?"
"What Doctor Mueller?" asked the ma. He was probably not from the hospital and did not know about Collin at all. Roxanne had no choice but to leave the man alone and continue to run inside. She asked a few more but none could tell where Doctor Mueller was. There were also several tents set up here. Maybe the doctors and nurses were running surgeries inside. She had no choice but to rush in and bump into a person head-on.
The glasses of the man were knocked off.
He searched around the ground blindly and felt nothing but muddy water. He cursed, and then a cold hand reached over and stuffed something into his hand. He felt that it was the glasses.
After Roxanne handed the glasses over. She quickly turned to leave after she saw that the person lying inside was not Collin. She went to the second tent, and the third, the fourth. She searched all tents, but she couldn't replace Collin.
After walking in the cold water for so long, she was so cold that her lips turned purple. The pajamas on her body had long been soaked when she strode in the water. Her whole body trembled involuntarily. Just as she was so frozen that she almost lost consciousness, she heard the phone in her bag ring.
She took out her phone and saw that the note on the number was "Doctor Mueller". Her fingers trembled as she pressed the answer button.
"Where are you?" It was Collin's voice.000000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
