Chapter 641: Started the Fire

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Why is there the smell of smoke? is the stove here not working well?”

Yun Xi, who was waiting to eat in the room, did not smell the aroma of the food. Instead, she smelled a thick smell of smoke and asked Zhou Lin, who was busy in the kitchen.

“No! I don’t smell any smoke here!”

The kitchen had a full set of smoke exhaust facilities, so even if the smoke outside drifted in, it would also drift out of the room along with the cooking smoke. Therefore, the only place where the smell of smoke could be smelled was the bedroom.

“Then you should go into the bedroom and take a look. Why is there such a thick smoke?” Yun Xi was a little puzzled at first.

She had never thought that these devilish children would be so bold as to set a fire outside.

Zhou Lin also sensed that the smell in the room was not right, so he hurriedly came out of the kitchen and sniffed carefully. Relying on the keen intuition of a special forces soldier, he immediately found the source of the thick smoke and immediately ran outside the door.

“What are you doing here?!”

The children squatted on the ground and looked very blurry in the smoke. Zhou Lin was some distance away, so he could not see clearly whether the people squatting on the ground were adults or children. He did not understand why someone would set a fire outside their house.

Could it be that the boss deliberately came over to make them feel uncomfortable?! That should not be the case. If there was really an accident, this house was also his property!

“Run, they’ve found us!”

Huzi shouted, telling his companions who had set the fire with him to run away from the scene of the crime.

The children quickly stood up from the ground, threw the remaining branches and leaves on the fire, and ran away.

Only then did Zhou Lin see clearly that the children who were squatting on the ground were all around five years old.

“Ah! Why is there a fire?”

Liu Xia originally wanted to take something, but she saw a raging fire in front of the house.

When she focused her eyes, she saw that her son, Huzi, was still holding a matchbox in his hand. He stood beside the fire with a smug look on his face.

“Quickly put out the fire, quickly put out the fire!”

The children did not know the danger, but the adults still knew that if the fire burned a little more, it would directly endanger the house in front of them. When that time came, the house would be reduced to ruins. In the end, it would be the family that would suffer.

The surrounding neighbors and tourists also heard the cries for help. They quickly gathered materials on the spot and poured water on the flames wherever there was water.

However, because the children had thrown the branches and leaves on the fire before they left, the flames burned even more fiercely. It had already affected the wooden windows of the house.

Yun Xi had already walked out long ago, so she did not know what the situation was like inside the room.

Fortunately, the room was relatively close to the seaside. Everyone used the most primitive water buckets to fetch water and pour water on the fire. With the strength of more people, the fire was extinguished in less than five minutes.

The fire was not particularly serious, but because the place where the fire was burning was made of wood, the wall was already too horrible to look at.

Next to the wall was the bed.

In order to prevent getting affected by the tide, there was a distance between the sea and the wall.

The bed next to the wall did not have any combustible bedding. After the fire was stopped in time, the wooden bed in the house and the quilt on the bed were saved.

“Hey, my house!”

The thick smoke gradually dissipated. Liu Xia saw that her house was in ruins and immediately squatted on the beach to pat her thigh.

The other little friends had already run away, leaving Hu Zi alone on the beach. He only realized that he might have made a mistake when he saw his mother crying bitterly.

“I’ll go in quickly and take out our luggage!” Zhou Lin said.

Fortunately, their luggage was stored in an iron box, and it was placed very far away from the bed. The things in the luggage were not damaged at all.

However, the seafood cooked in the kitchen was already emitting a burning smell. It seemed that it could not be eaten.

It was a waste of the kindness of the big sister who was at the seaside just now.
