Chapter 269 High-Pressure Water Cannon
Chaochao turned her head and saw two red cars driving up the road and stopping right downstairs.

Following closely behind, several neatly dressed people jumped out of the car. Some of them ran directly into the house against the flow of people, two were opening the water pipes connected to the back of the car, and others were directing the operation.

Seeing how nimble they were, Chaochao was about to ask something when she heard Gezi excitedly say, "Great! The firefighters are here! The fire will definitely be put out soon."

Chaochao has never met a firefighter, though she has seen pictures of them, but not very clearly.

Hearing what Gezi said, he watched nervously.

The people of Daqi were surprised to see the firefighters rushing into the building. "It was so full of smoke inside, you couldn't see anything, and it was even hard to breathe. How could they just go in like that?"

"Their clothes seemed different from others, and they were carrying things on their backs, so they must have a way to deal with this kind of situation."

"It's fifteen stories high, it looks like it's forty or fifty meters tall, the fire is hard to put out, and it's getting bigger and bigger."

Chaochao was also worried about this, but before they could take a closer look, the property management staff came over and told them to move out.

Actually, as soon as Chaochao came downstairs, Uncle Zhou led them to a safe area. However, with so many people crowded together, it was still dangerous. If the glass upstairs shattered and fell, it would be easy to get injured.

From a distance, Chaochao couldn't see very clearly. Just as she was about to ask, she saw a jet of water shoot into the sky, spraying directly at the fifteenth floor.

Chaochao stared in shock, and the people of the Great Qi Dynasty gasped in astonishment.

"How could the water rush so high, all the way up to the fifteenth floor?!"

"Not only that, I think if the fire started two stories higher, it could be extinguished directly."

Emperor Jingxuan's eyes lit up. Things from later generations are so convenient. This is only fifteen stories high. If it were a house in the Great Qi Dynasty, the fire could be extinguished in no time.

The palace had caught fire before, and despite working hard for most of the day, a large part of it was still destroyed. The repairs took a lot of manpower and resources.

If we had this kind of fire extinguishing equipment, the fire could probably be extinguished completely before even a single door was burned.

Daqi also has a fire brigade called "Fire Armor," but they are only equipped with buckets, ropes, ladders, and other tools, which look very rudimentary. In recent years, they have developed a manual water spray device called "mechanical bucket," which generates water pressure through manual operation, but its fire extinguishing ability is still very limited.

Therefore, the Great Qi Dynasty focused primarily on prevention in its response to fires. The palace is currently equipped with auspicious water tanks, providing a relatively sufficient water supply, but a major fire would still pose a significant risk.

Emperor Jingxuan couldn't help but ask Ashan, "Ashan, can our Great Qi achieve this technology?"

As Ashan was engrossed in watching the fire being extinguished, he heard Emperor Jingxuan's question.

He looked completely bewildered; he didn't know much about the technical aspects, but...

Ah Shan firmly said, "It's impossible." It didn't know anything else, but it did know that a high-pressure water cannon for extinguishing fires required a powerful power system and a high-pressure water pump.

The Great Qi should not rush things. It should invent the internal combustion engine and the electric motor before talking about high-pressure water cannons.

A-Shan suddenly spoke in her mind, and Chao-Chao, who was focused on watching, was stunned for a moment. After hearing A-Shan's explanation, she looked around and found that everyone was watching the firefighting and no one was paying attention to her.

So she whispered, "It's impossible."

Her voice was soft, and those around her couldn't hear it, but the people of Daqi under the sky could hear it clearly.

The other common people didn't understand what these words meant, but Emperor Jingxuan knew they were an answer to his question. He wasn't surprised, just a little regretful.

On second thought, perhaps I could ask He Nanzhou what the principle behind this thing is?
Just as I was thinking this, I heard Gezi's excited voice, "Has the fire gone out?"

Emperor Jingxuan looked up and saw that the flames on the tall building not far away had disappeared, leaving only wisps of smoke.

But it's still unknown whether there's still a fire inside; it probably depends on the firefighters who rush in.

In addition, Emperor Jingxuan also saw a ladder slowly rising, getting higher and higher until it reached the fifteenth floor.

Before I could get a better look, Chaochao had already been carried away by the driver.

He Nanzhou came over. Although Chaochao said she felt fine, he still took the children to a nearby hospital for a check-up.

Fortunately, there was nothing wrong, but Feifei was a little frightened, especially since the house on fire was her own and her parents weren't around. She was so panicked that her eyes were swollen from crying.

Chaochao could only comfort her, "It's okay. My dad said the most important thing is that everyone is safe. Look, we're all safe and sound, that's more important than anything else."

Feifei nodded, but quickly shook her head again. "But the house burned down. If Dad finds out, he'll definitely blame me when he comes back."

"Why should I blame you?" Chaochao was very angry when she talked about this. "It was clearly your grandma who did it. She turned on the heater, she covered us with clothes, and she even locked us in the house and left. She's the one who did wrong. Don't worry, if your dad asks, Gezi and I will vouch for you."

Gezi nodded emphatically and patted his chest. "Yes, we'll protect you."

Feifei was deeply moved. "Thank you all."

"No need to thank me, we've been through thick and thin together."

He Nanzhou chuckled upon hearing this, but seeing that they seemed to be in good spirits, he finally felt relieved.

Just as the children were getting excited, the police arrived and took them back to make statements.

The fire started at Feifei's house. Although the fire was brought under control and no one was injured, they still needed to find out the cause.

When He Nanzhou led Chaochao into the police station, they heard wailing and howling coming from inside.

"My house! My house burned down!"

Feifei instinctively hid behind Chaochao. She recognized the voice as her grandmother's, crying miserably.

Chaochao and the others were all at a loss because of her crying; it seemed like she was the victim.

Just then, another man rushed in. Grandma Quan saw him immediately and cried out, "Son, our house is gone!"

"We'll talk about the house later. I want to ask you, where is Feifei? Where is Feifei?! Is she alright?" the man asked urgently.

When Feifei saw him, she approached him with a mixture of anticipation and nervousness, "Dad."

The man turned around abruptly, and seeing that she was safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief and came over to hug her tightly.

He Nanzhou sneered, suppressing his anger, and pointed at Grandma Quan, saying to the police, "Comrade, I want to call the police and accuse her of attempted arson and murder!"
