Chapter 507 Jiang Suining is in a coma

"This is crazy! This is absolutely crazy! How dare they do this!"

Pei Zhaozhi was horrified and ran towards the cell without even changing his clothes.

The bailiffs and jailers were already racing to put out the fire, but facing the burning kerosene, pouring buckets of water and sand on it was of no use at all.

The flames shot up into the sky, tearing the originally dark night into pieces and illuminating a terrifying red.

In the cell, only a small number of jailers escaped with some prisoners near the entrance. Pei Zhaozhi quickly searched the crowd, but Jiang Suining and Chu Yishen were not among them.

"Sir, the fire is too big. I'm afraid we can only save one side." A bailiff reported to Pei Zhaozhi anxiously.

The cells of the Ministry of Justice Prison are divided into two sides, east and west, and the middle is where the jailers rest when they change shifts.

The cells on the east side mostly hold prisoners with less serious crimes or whose cases have been concluded and are waiting to be transferred.

To the west is the execution room and where death row prisoners are held.

Therefore, the prison guards on the west side patrolled and guarded more strictly to prevent prison breaks.

After Chu Yishen was tried in the torture chamber, Pei Zhaozhi specifically ordered that he be detained in the west where the guards were tighter, and sent people to guard him.

"Sir, if we continue to delay, I'm afraid both sides will burn down. Apart from Chu Yishen, there are only a few death row prisoners imprisoned in the west. How about we abandon the west and focus on putting out the fire in the east?" The bailiff spoke again, hoping that Pei Zhaozhi could make a decision as soon as possible.

Looking at the raging fires in both directions, Pei Zhaozhi gritted his teeth and said, "Save the east."

Not only is Jiang Suining in the east, but there are also those prisoners whose crimes do not deserve the death penalty. It is impossible to abandon them for Chu Yishen.

It’s just Chu Yisheng…

Pei Zhaozhi stared at the exit of the cell, thinking of his trusted men whom he had sent to look after Chu Yishen, and only hoped that they could bring the person out.

Even if they couldn't bring Chu Yishen with them, at least they themselves would come out safely!

With Pei Zhaozhi's order, the yamen runners and jailers concentrated their efforts and began to put out the fire in the east.

As more water was poured, the fire in the east finally began to die down.

Pei Zhaozhi, along with a team of jailers, rushed into the cell wrapped in soaked blankets.

After instructing the jailer to rescue all the prisoners as soon as possible, Pei Zhaozhi ran all the way to Jiang Suining's cell.

Although the fire was smaller, the cell was still filled with thick smoke and the temperature was scorching.

When passing by some cells, I could even see the prisoners inside lying on the ground, not knowing whether they were unconscious or suffocated by the thick smoke.

Pei Zhaozhi was terrified and prayed in his heart that nothing would happen to Jiang Suining, otherwise he would not know how to explain to Shen Yanxi.

At the same time, he felt regretful in his heart, thinking that he should not have placed Jiang Suining in the innermost cell because of the light and quietness.

Finally, Pei Zhaozhi arrived outside Jiang Suining's cell and saw Jiang Suining lying on the ground with his back to the cell door.

"Miss Jiang! Jiang Suining!" Pei Zhaozhi shouted.

The person curled up on the ground moved. He was still alive. Pei Zhaozhi was overjoyed. He didn't care about the hot copper lock and quickly opened the cell door.

When they arrived at Jiang Suining's side, they found that Jiang Suining had pieces of tea-soaked dress covering his mouth and nose. He was still conscious and not in a coma.

But he still inhaled the thick smoke and didn't look well.

Pei Zhaozhi quickly carried the man on his back and ran out. Jiang Suining felt his consciousness becoming increasingly dizzy and his whole body began to lose strength.

The news that the Ministry of Justice prison was on fire had spread, and after Shen Yanxi received the news, he rushed to the Ministry of Justice on horseback.

When he ran out of the cell, he just saw Pei Zhaozhi carrying someone out. At the same time, Jiang Suining on Pei Zhaozhi's back completely lost consciousness, and the hand that was originally on Pei Zhaozhi's shoulder also completely lost its strength and slipped down.

Seeing Jiang Suining's arms falling limply, Shen Yanxi froze in place at that moment, his brain buzzing. Although he was standing outside the cell, he felt as if he was in the fire. Intense suffocation and fear instantly enveloped him.

"Ning, Ning Ning..."

Shen Yanxi's throat was so dry that he rushed over almost unconsciously.

When he reached Jiang Suining's side, he touched her neck with trembling fingertips, and only after confirming that she was still alive did he suddenly breathe a sigh of relief.

Carefully, he took the person from Pei Zhaozhi's back, "Ningning, Ningning..."

Shen Yanxi called a few more times, but Jiang Suining didn't wake up, and his heart was hanging in his throat again.

Without hesitation, and without asking whether Chu Yishen was dead or alive, he picked him up and ran straight out.

After leaving the Ministry of Justice, he rushed towards the nearest clinic.

The fire in the east cell was finally put out, and except for two prisoners who died of suffocation, all the others were still alive.

The west cell was almost completely engulfed in flames. Pei Zhaozhi asked the jailers to put out the fire while he planned to risk going in to take a look. However, he was stopped by the yamen runners. During the argument, there was a loud bang and the roof of the west cell collapsed.

The blood drained from Pei Zhaozhi's face. The person inside couldn't possibly be alive.

On the other side, in the clinic.

When Jiang Suining slowly opened his eyes, the first person he saw was Shen Yanxi standing by the bed.

When Shen Yanxi saw Jiang Suining open his eyes, he was delighted and immediately called a doctor.

The doctor felt Jiang Suining's pulse and said, "He's fine now. Although he inhaled some smoke, it wasn't much. He'll be fine once he wakes up."

Shen Yanxi's heart, which had been beating fast and furious, finally settled down. He carefully helped the man up and began to feed Jiang Suining some water to moisten his throat.

He was extremely scared, "Ningning, I'm sorry, I was too careless!"

He didn't dare to think about what he would do if something happened to Ningning tonight.

"Why, why..." Jiang Suining's voice was still a little hoarse. After coughing twice, he continued, "How can I blame you? Besides, I'm fine now. Chu Yisheng..."

"When I took you away, Chu Yisheng had not been rescued yet. The cells on both the east and west sides were on fire at the same time, so Pei Zhaozhi had to abandon the west side temporarily. It's still unclear what the situation is now. I'll have someone go and ask them later."

Jiang Suining leaned in Shen Yanxi's arms and nodded, "Okay, and don't tell my father, mother, and Mu Shi about this for the time being, so as not to worry them."

Shen Yanxi's expression froze, and he whispered while hugging Jiang Suining.

"Ningning, I'm sorry. After seeing the doctor just now, I sent someone to report to the Jiang family. According to the time, they should be here soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, anxious voices and inquiries were heard outside the clinic.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Zhitong, Zheng, and Jiang Mushi ran in from outside with anxious faces.
