Written by Love Call (131.213. * * *. * * *)/Referral: 8412/Referral: 76]
Early August. You'll remember all the rainy days in the metropolitan area. The news said it was a recorded rainstorm for a week. I thought you said weather surveillance was the second scale.
The minefields were submerged, the subway was stopped, and some residential areas were flooded.
Reports have been pouring in from the moment I started working in the area. We have a lot of low-lying areas, so the flooding was severe. By the way, I work at the 119th Safety Center.
Back to that day.
Naturally, the situation room was chaos itself.
People get trapped in the currents and rainy cars rush into India, making it difficult to transport emergency patients in barrels filled with debris spilled into the road forks. And this was reported in just five minutes.
Everyone in Seoul, including the former fire department, police station, and other officials, entered the emergency services system.
Oh, so you had a hard day. Did you write this to comfort our 119 members?
No, I don't.
What's the point of complimenting me for doing what I have to do? I never thought I'd be able to comfort the people who survived the death before I was rescued.
You know, after all this sudden disaster, we say it every time.
- Why couldn't we have prevented this in advance?
- Weather Service XX! What the hell is the government doing?
- Global warming is a natural disaster caused by human error, etc.
I'm usually a little grumpy with these words. By the way, you wouldn't believe me if I told you.
That day.
There's a chemist who warned us about this before it rained.
I can't give you my exact name. You have to respect your privacy. But the most powerful commander in our center called in four to eight units before the disaster.
That time, Seoul didn't even report the cosmos.
Since just two hours ago, it's been raining like a hole in the sky.
Around the time of the simultaneous flooding, other scribes mobilized emergency services, but we were already able to get ready and go. The mayor was surprised by our book's ghost response.
Amazing, isn't it?
The commander said he wasn't some kind of prophet or shaman.
What do they say? They say fire watches like a ghost, but the smell of the wind and the path to the water is perfect, the firefighter from the sky.
I know, I know. Don't bullshit me?
Of course, at first I thought you were crazy. But you know that. The disaster that happened that day was not just the flooding of the whole town.
One thing we know for sure is that the chemist involved hasn't even started the sled yet.
By the time you hear it, you won't even feel a lie if you're a prophet.

Central Fire Departure Site 0807-3, Central Medical Center Gas Leakage Accident
11: 00 a.m.
The parking lot at Euljiro Boulevard was just leaving and there was no room to set foot on three fire pumps.
He hurriedly got off the passenger seat with his helmet on, running toward the crowds at the entrance of the hospital.
“Out of the way, out of the way! I'm from 119! ”
Surprised by the sound of the fire captain's voice, the people turn their heads and are once more surprised at his graceful figure.
Miles squeezed the cracks that were scattered to the left and to the right, and as he looked inside, he opened the fire escape stairs. I looked down and listened to the radio.
“There's no smoke. The fire alarm is still suspected of gas leakage, so put on the ventilator and enter. The rest of you help evacuate the remaining patients inside the building. ”
A short while later, three men in gear go past the mile to the underground escape hatch.
“Firefighter.”
A hospital official approached by the number of miles watching below the exit.
“Chief of Facilities I reported. ”
“Oh, chief. The alarm sounded creepy, didn't it? ”
“Could a gas leak spread in a fire? Ventilators are operating normally, and if the Prelate isn't in danger, it's okay to hold off transferring heavy patients.
Cheers.
Captain, we're in the second basement cooling room.
I looked up my finger, saying, "Miles from below."
“Oh, Jae-ho. What's in it? Refrigerant?”
- The detector is unresponsive.
“Search the gas line and the engine room. ”
The number of miles I instructed turned to look at me long ago.
“You want to move only the moveable patient to the side east and leave the rest upstairs? ”
“That's right.”
“Well, there's an emergency trauma center right next door if you hit a doctor with a patient after the gas blew, and that shouldn't be too bad. Kya. Please tell the Prelate that you admire the creative means of doing business. If my kids get hurt, I want first line treatment. Wait, if we get hurt here, we have to fly to the trauma center. Do nurses have to fly? ”
Khm, I lifted my phone when I was clear-headed. The evacuation proceedings were very mild and delivered to the Prelate.
Cheers.
- There's no response here either.
“Really? Hospital sensor malfunction? ”
- Wait, wait, wait. You just blew the bell. You see, there it is. Chief, in this room.
Kuang!
Suddenly, the vibrations in the building shifted underfoot, changing the look on Mile's face.
“Jae-ho!”
- Whoo, C. It's okay, I avoided it. This device appears to be full of gas and has been ejected at once. It didn't spread with the ignition.
“Shut off the valves first. ”
- Except for one blow, it's already sealed shut.
“What room is this? ”
- The door flew. Lead the way! We walked down the hallway of District B. The room next door is an electrical appliance room · ·
The scene I was listening to at my side raised my head.
“That's the UPS room. ”
“UPS?”
“A device that provides emergency power during a power outage. ”
“What's in that device that has so much internal air pressure that it can explode? ”
“It was a long time ago, so I too · ·”
Miles listened to the radio.
“Just make sure the room is ventilated and check the rest of the area. ”
- Aye, sir.
Milsoo turned his eyes to the scene.
“What are you doing without a knowledgeable technician for UPS equipment? You want to see a building fly like this? ”
A passenger car with a Korean Power Corporation mark entered the hospital parking lot.
Jungwoo, who was sitting in the passenger seat, froze his eyes as dozens of people in patient clothes were wandering around the parking lot and near the hospital.
“It's all out there. It must have been a pretty big accident. ”
“I heard there was an explosion that shook the building. ”
He tilted his head toward the story of the cab conductor driving.
“You use UPS storage cells, right? It's not a structure that's going to produce enough gas to explode. ”
“It may be worn out. I've been working on this model since the beginning of the hospital power stabilization business, and it's been seven years. It's hot out there. Don't come out. Sit down. If you're busy explaining your new business plan, you know what's going on. I'll be back soon.”
“Slow down and come back to work. I'm free on my schedule. ”
After apologizing repeatedly to the boat conductor who stopped the car outside the parking lot, he walked out.
While waiting, Jungwoo thought about watching the fire pump car outside the window.
I went down to war for about two weeks to study batteries for generators and spent this week studying batteries for electric cars. The results were fairly good, and the head of the Heritage Center asked me to stay for one more week, but I couldn't because the last one was scheduled.
From August 3rd to September 1st week. By the end of the summer, the center week will be over.
After that, I was excited to make vague guesses about what I was going to do at the company, and a text message rang on my phone.
[Bounty!!!]
It was a text from Sustainer. Jungwoo replied right away.
[What's the matter with you?]
[The event was canceled because of the weekend rain. I'm free. How about a beer party tonight? Taeyoung was okay, and Jung said she had a date. He's dating his seven-year-old girlfriend for three days this Saturday. Does that make sense? A week's defense duty is enough.]
It's good to be with friends, but I have plans today.
[Soru, I have a date. I want you to have a meaningful time with Laura.]
I remembered a doll emoticon that was shocked by my phone.
You traitor! You're not Yoon Yi-sun, are you? Please tell me you're not.]
[No]
[Look at the response rate and the typo. You little thief!]
I thought of a date with Yoon Yi Seol that would be in the evening, swallowing the laughter of Suh Suh's violent reaction as if she was spontaneously voice-assisted.
She was hard to see because of each other's schedules, but today was different. It wasn't a good day for me to finish my interview with Director Han.
It was time for me to look at my phone with happiness like that.
Someone passes by the car.
Huh?
When I saw it, I dug the back deep into the car seat without even realizing it in the appearance of a powerful muscle shoulder that I would never forget.
It's Captain Ma, isn't it? ’
While it wasn't sunny, the mileage that was sweating red outside with high humidity disappeared to the side of the parking lot.
“Phew, I'm avoiding it without knowing. ”
After the spring wildfires, I was often texted to have a drink. Obviously, I kept saying no. Every time I did that, I was more burdened by the growing number of hearts in the barrel.
"Go out and say hello"? No, I'm fine. I'm just trying to get laid. You could get kidnapped at the fire station if you don't see Seul. ’
Jungwoo said, "I'm afraid that's as far as I can go with the commander.” I muttered and paused for a moment at the window of the driver's seat.
“Phew. ”
Outside the window, Milsoo glances inside, wincing sweetly with his left eye, and then grinning.
“There really is a Jungwoo.”
I was surprised by the stiffness of my neck in a voice filled with rich gracefulness of muscles.
“Yes, sir. Hello."
I quickly unlocked the lock button to mark the door. Mildred in the driver's seat tapped Jungwoo's shoulder.
“You surprised me when I heard about you right before the engineer went down there. ”
“I never thought you'd be here. ”
“Haha. Dongdaemun Euljiro is my district. ”
Mileaux, who has a face that is not easily adaptable to seeing and seeing, put ‘my area’ in his mouth and the meaning of it sounded very serious.
“But what's the chemist doing with the Han Ex-technicist? ”
“The conductor is in the battery business, and I helped him with that research. ”
“Aha, batteries. I don't know what we can't fix. ”
Although the word ‘our Jungwoo’ was very burdensome, Jungwoo couldn't help but sit stiff.
“Piljo and Jaeho down there would love to see you. ”
“Do you have Team Leader Jae-ho and Mr. Pildu? ”
“Aces. Of course they're under me. The team's a little renovated. ”
Jungwoo also regretted the appearance of the firefighters who were with him when he broke through the fire burning line that was like hell. It was only about four months ago, but it felt so far away.
Cheers.
Chief, I found the problem, but the gas keeps leaking, and they need the equipment.
Miles' voice from the radio on his chest moved his hand and pressed the button.
“Equipment? How long will it take? ”
- Round trip to War Power Researcher. It's a minimum of four hours.
“Hey, so we need to get all the trauma centers to another hospital. Can't you get parts in Seoul? ”
- The specific substance inside the cell added to increase its life rather than parts, the broad neutralization solution is being held by the power researcher. If you try to replace the front, gas protection should come first.
Milsoo sighed deeply.
“I can't help it. Take the Engineer Road · ·"
“Commander.”
Jungwoo who was listening called Miles.
“If the leak is a hydrogen compound, I think we can prescribe a gas problem. Why don't you ask the conductor? ”
“Really?"
The number of miles that pressed the radio button opened.
“The gas hydrogen compound? ”
- I think so.
“Okay, Jungwoo. Can you do that? ”
“What's with the meds over there? ”
Jungwoo's finger points towards the fire pump car.
In the UPS room on the second floor of the basement.
- You don't have air conditioning, do you? We'll have a solution down in a minute. Just wait.
Kim Jae-ho, who was assisting with Monkey Spanner next to Han Jeon's technician, turned his head in a curious look on the commander's radio that someone was coming.
“What? Why are you so excited? ”
“I don't know. ”
Kim Jae-ho gave a pathetic answer to Jung, who was looking through the detector's gas concentration level.
“You really don't get it every time you get beat up? Every time we talk like this, it only doubles our work. ”
“It's always good to have more work to do to keep our citizens safe. ”
“You were a great hero. Guard, what do you think? ”
The fire marshal, who was listening to the two of you, smiles.
“Half a year later, it's still a little green, bro. ”
“Isn't that right? You'll have to clear out his hive for a month in a row to come to your senses. ”
As I was talking, I heard footsteps from the stairs on the other side of the hall. Lim says he saw someone coming from a distance with a bunch of things.
“Huh? A young man wearing a fire jacket? We just touched her and she swears she'll ride. The hat belongs to the commander. ”
“Really? I think this engineer really liked something. ”
Kim Jae-ho smiled as he recalled a young man who had been appointed as the interim deputy chief of the rescue team when he heard he was wearing Mileage's equipment.
“He was very fond of it at the time. It would be great if we could go to the Fire Olympics together. ”
“Are you talking about Mr. Jungwoo? ”
Kim Jae-ho nodded as soon as Jung Pil understood.
“Huh? How did you know it was coming? ”
Kim Jae-ho and Jung Pil's gaze returned at the same time to the young man's voice at the entrance.
“Hey, Jungwoo? ”
“Captain Lim Wu! ”
Jungwoo, who was holding a steel box of medicine, leaned in and bowed his head.
Kim Jae-ho approached Jungwoo with a greeting expression.
“Wow, how long has it been? How did you get here?”
“Just because you've been locked up for an hour and a half, you're here to rescue me? ”
“Chief Jae-ho. The great hero has really come. ”
Jung Pil-du also smiled at Jungwoo.
Jungwoo lightly greeted the first member of Suho, then turned his eyes to the conductor who was opening the UPS battery lid.
“Sir. ”
“Mr. Jungwoo. We don't have the right analysis equipment, can we just predict the gases and neutralize them? ”
Analysis is an eye-opening, neutralizing agent combination. If you use the ‘Lightwater’ of KG Industries, which is effective in gas fires, you nod boldly.
In about 20 minutes.
The fire department walks out of the lobby through the fire escape hatch. The chief ran as soon as he saw the wiring owner and asked.
“What happened? ”
“The gas was completely shut off. Keep in mind that the UPS appliance itself is currently out of service and I recommend replacing it rather than repairing it due to old age. ”
“You're welcome. Thank you, Courier. ”
At last, I was thankful for holding the wiring arm because it almost cost the whole hospital a lot. The wielder points back at the opposing Pokémon's audit.
“I've done very little. Mr. Lim here did all the work. ”
“Phew, sir. Thank you."
He thanked me for misunderstanding Jungwoo who was wearing a special hat as a firefighter. Jungwoo shook hands without saying anything, then went out to the entrance.
The calf, without the hat and coat, handed it over to the foreman and said in a low voice.
“Mr. Pildu. Before Captain Ma comes, I first · ·"
“Jungwoo!”
A frighteningly invisible mileage suddenly appeared.
“As soon as we arrived at the gas spill, we came up with a solution. I knew you were a firefighter. ”
“You're a chemist. ”
“Whatever it is, it doesn't change how great it is. Lunch is a little late, but let's eat together. ”
“I'm sorry about that, sir. I have an appointment with the conductor. ”
“No, I don't mind if Mr. Lim Woo does. ”
I sighed as I meditated on the wiring's consideration. Miles gladly wrapped his hands around Jungwoo's shoulders.
“We have a great soup kitchen in front of us. Lunch is supposed to be in the cafeteria, but since you're here, I'll shoot you myself! ”
Rescue teams 2 and 3, gathered back in the Declaration of Miles, cheered and raised their hands. Miles shakes his head.
“Why do you like it? You'll pay for it. ”
“Commander, you're too much. ”
“It's too much for you. Trying to rip off a government official's wallet. Tsk!”
When Mileaux's face came back to Jungwoo for a moment, it couldn't be softer.
“Have you ever been in a Jungwoo car? You want to ride next to me? ”
After lunch, I didn't know if the soup went into my nose or into my mouth, and Jung got out of the hands of Miles as an excuse to work with the ship's conductor.
Later, when he visited the cafe and finished discussing the newly planned ESS business, it was just after 3pm.
“Thank you for your input. It's such a pity that this team leader is moving his department elsewhere. ”
“There are a lot of good people in cell centers. Mr. Herschel said that he would be very supportive of joint venture research. ”
“I know this is an imposition, but will you just do it, Mr. Lim Woo? We know that you have received a good scout offer from the Korean SDI. We have a good employment system for essential researchers in Korea. How · ·"
Jung shakes his head with a smile.
“I appreciate the offer, but the only chemical company I can target is KG chemistry. ”
“From what I've heard, you seem determined. I have nothing more to say about this part. That's too bad. I've had a lot of help over the last three weeks. ”
It was only after I left the ship's conductor who thanked me so many times that the day was finally over. I checked the timing and went out of the cafe and called a taxi.
“In front of KG chemistry. ”
The raindrops falling from the sky landed in front of the headquarters building and touched my cheeks, so my head naturally went up. It was not so clear even in the morning, but the afternoon was blurred even further. It was just like a rainstorm.
“Damn. I didn't bring an umbrella. ”
First, I rushed into the company.
In addition to discussions with the ship's conductor today, I found a private laboratory on the 25th floor to organize the final data to be handed over to the successor of the cell center.
Song Bo-young, who has been traveling abroad because of the research agreement with Disson, seems to be in a relatively small lab to come back next week.
“Let's wrap it up and get out of here. ”
As soon as I sat down, I opened my laptop. In the room, there was only the sound of air conditioning and keyboard tapping for a while.
I leaned back against the chair to clean up the ‘super solid battery’ data that was added to the patent application for the handover materials that I had prepared until yesterday.
“Oh, it's over. ”
I pressed the Print button and turned my head out of the window and saw the dim sky.
“What time is it? ”
In the middle of the summer, dinner must pass before it gets this dark. Jungwoo opened his cell phone to make sure that he didn't break the date date time.
A sigh of relief emanated from the letter 5: 13. I didn't overstay my commute.
“Not at all. If I was late, I would have called Mr. Lee right away. ”
Strangely, it felt dark outside and walked towards the clear window. You hear the sound of the raindrops hitting the window.
“It was a cloud. Will it pour out cool?" ”
The rain I heard in a long time made me feel like a background sound in a space where there was less rain. Jungwoo stood back outside the window with the printed data in his hand.
I turned my eyes to the molecular world to carefully examine the content.
A thorough examination of the microscopic reactions in the battery, like the imaginary world, the sound of the rain that had just begun fades, turning my eyes away from the window.
“Are you done already? Fresh rain.”
Jung, who looked at the sky, stopped. It was because I could see the clouds with unusual shapes of dust. Just as there was a dust star that never stood still in one place, a dense cloud seemed to possess nature's mysterious phenomenon on its own.
“I've never seen such a passive and unstable dance son-in-law. ”
It should be a field of view in a storm.
Even the sky when it was snowing in the middle of winter was not like this when I looked at the molecular field.
I thought I picked up Jung's phone because it was steamed. The signal goes and you hear a voice of anger immediately.
- Jungwoo. You wanted to see me again? I'm having dinner. Do you want a soju?
“Captain Ma. You know that forecast chief from the Meteorological Bureau? If you have the number, can I call you? ”
What about the chief?
“The sky is a little strange. I thought you might find out if you asked the experts. ”
- How is that weird?
After a thorough analysis of the molecular world in the clouds, I opened my mouth to the question of miles.
“The water vapor layer has reached its water limit. Strange thing is a hot car. It's the same local sky, but it's 10 degrees apart. ”
Many times I closed my eyes and opened them.
Jung observed the dust particulates flowing inside the cloud in the field of radio waves that felt like an electromagnetic field, and Jung swallowed a groan.
“No, that's ridiculous. ”
- What's the matter with you?
The steam layer filled with water rose like a pillar to a height of 10 km, above the nearest sky. Jung, who measured the size of the giant, relaxed his legs and sat down.
“The water column in the Han River floats through Seoul City. ”
- Are you saying there's a local emergency?
“The only thing that's professional is talking to the archivist. But · · ·”
- And?
Jungwoo calculated the reaction of water molecules containing layers of clouds and the approximate total amount of dust.
“I think it will spill at least 150mm per hour if it falls into one area. ”
Six hours, 110 millimeters per alarm. Like you said, it's catastrophic. Are you sure about that?
“The calculations are almost certain. This is the Yeouido Building, so it's a long way to go. The rain clouds are poisonous behind it and Namsan Mountain. ”
It was natural for water bombs to fall in the area below unless they spread the rain clouds widely, even in the strong winds.
- I'll get your number right away. You are. But the analysis is real, right?
“Chemically.”
- I believe it's your chemistry. Okay, hold on.
After the call, I left for the elevator with only my bag, thinking I should go home before the rain starts pouring.
I came down to the lobby and passed through the front door of KG chemistry.
As I stepped out, a humid, eerie wind in the middle of the tropical climate struck the tip of my nose.
“Today is the best day to stay close to home."
“Mr. Jungwoo!"
The call was conveyed in a clear, high-pitched voice, and Jungwoo's head turned to reflexes.
“Transfers · · · · seeds? ”
Yoon Il-sul, who was standing with an umbrella, smiled and approached.
“Ta-da! I've been waiting to see your surprise, and it's been a success! ”
“What about the schedule?”
“I got rid of it and ran. Heave-ho.”
One step closer to avoiding the pool of water on the floor, Yoon Lee Seol looked up at Jungwoo with a heavy gaze.
“You don't have an umbrella? What should we do? We should wear them together. ”
“Now · · · · · · · · ·. ”
I had to get out of the house before the rain started pouring down on me, so I couldn't connect the words as soon as I was confused in my head. In the meantime, why is she so pretty with her umbrella over her shoulder and fresh eyes?
