After Being Reborn, I became a firefighter again?

Chapter 644: 458

"For example, what did we talk about last class regarding fire scene investigation?"

Instructor Fang turned around and wrote on the blackboard:

Visible and invisible indicators.

"These are the two categories of fire situation investigation."

Having written this, Instructor Fang tossed the chalk onto the desk with a flourish and said with a smile:

"This connects to today’s lesson. The initial firefighting force arrives on scene, identifies the building type, which starts from the pre-planning stage and becomes specific when the fire occurs.

Following the judgment on building structure," Fang Huai said one thing right, observe around the scene.

Firstly, it’s about smoke."

Instructor Fang picked up the chalk again and began to write emphatically on the blackboard.

"In observing around the scene, the shape of the smoke partially indicates what the primary fuel is. As for which type of fuel corresponds to which smoke shape, that’s in the book, we won’t go into detail.

Additionally, the direction of the smoke is also very important.

When you discover that smoke is being vented from one side of a building, and there is a ventilation opening on the other side with no smoke, then that indicates it is an air intake.

Therefore, during observation around the scene, we can take action by trying to close these ventilation openings. Modern buildings usually have limited ventilation. Reducing the interior oxygen intake can effectively suppress combustion.

If during observation around the scene, you detect obvious flames coming out, then you can quickly unleash the water hose to suppress the point where the flames are emerging, achieving the purpose of quickly controlling the fire and reducing the temperature.

This is the efficiency that should be demonstrated during observation around the scene.

But what if there’s no smoke, no fire? What should be done then?

You should then resort to using thermal imaging equipment to determine this. The high thermal radiation from the fire source is enough to allow any functional thermal imaging tool to display a form, but so far, I have not seen this equipment used to its proper effect. In your subconscious minds, you think this tool is only used to search and rescue trapped persons."

These words carried a lecturing tone, but everyone remained silent.

Indeed, it was the truth.

It’s not that they’re not used, they are often employed in exercises. Flaunted at the entrance of a fire scene, it’s easy to be mocked by the ordinary people.

Ordinary people won’t think you’re professional.

What’s wrong, can’t you see the fire? Why aren’t you rushing to rescue instead of fussing about with that gadget?"

"I know what you’re thinking, that it’s impractical, that it delays time, but your identity will soon change to that of a commander." Please shift your mindset, you must understand the theory," said Instructor Fang.

Speaking of which, he looked towards Fang Huai:

"Especially you, Number 1, what you have written is influencing the decisions of the higher-ups."

With those words, all eyes in the room focused on Fang Huai.

My god, he can influence the decisions of the higher-ups?

Fang Huai became an enigma in their eyes.

And even more enigmatic was Instructor Fang on the stage, because he could admonish Fang Huai to the point of speechlessness.

Inside, Fang Huai felt like he had eaten excrement.

Brother, have you actually looked at my work? I’ve always been talking about emergency rescue, big emergencies, when did I ever talk about fire?

I’m quite confident in our military’s fire-fighting capability, alright?

You’re really harping on about this fire thing.

Instructor Fang saw Fang Huai dumbstruck and a hint of a smile appeared on his face, apparently envisioning the benefits of a decision made at the top, under their guidance, coming to fruition.

In reality, he hadn’t looked at Fang Huai’s plan, but during the Grand Martial Arts Competition, a leadership figure who was acquainted with several instructors was present when Fang Huai gave his briefing; he discussed some of it with them and shared his thoughts about the plan.

The leader’s comment was: It’s a major decision, though somewhat disorganized.

Also, the director might be interested.

Wouldn’t they want to take some credit for it?

Ever since they knew about this, many people in the teaching research group started paying close attention to the enrollment status of Fang Huai, the trainee. Today, Instructor Fang was just laying the groundwork. Soon, instructors Zhao, Qian, Sun, and Li will take their turns. Whoever gets Fang Huai under their wing, their group will be the leader.

Fang Huai was oblivious to these happenings, but he did know one thing.

If it’s not of your concern, don’t get involved.

It’s a clear matter; don’t complicate it. Only the leadership that provides actual support deserves to have their names on the plan.

"You must not only know what is happening but also understand why it is happening."

Instructor Fang stood on the stage, obviously without the time to observe Fang Huai’s expressions in detail. Having proven Fang Huai’s theoretical inadequacies, he continued with the lesson.

"During the investigation process, it’s important to listen for sounds. A fire scene under high pressure will have air currents and vibrations, often accompanied by a whistling sound. Shooting water towards the area of high pressure often yields effective results..."

This lesson was taken particularly seriously by everyone.

Because Instructor Fang’s revealed information firmly captured everyone’s attention.

Instructor Fang also lectured with great enthusiasm.

The only victim was Fang Huai.

Fang Huai really wanted to listen to the lesson with an open mind because indeed, there was a lot of useful information in Instructor Fang’s explanation.

But the instructor always liked to use "We have talked about this in the XX class" to refer to some points, without recapitulating what exactly was discussed, which, due to the lack of previous lessons, left Fang Huai’s focus fragmented even though he tried to concentrate. freёwebnoѵel.com

This way of teaching was like missing one opportunity and losing it forever, like the traffic lights in cities. Once you’ve missed the green light, there’s a high chance the next light will also be red.

Fang Huai flipped through the thick theoretical book briefly; there were too many case studies copied from both domestic and international sources, which would take quite a bit of time to read thoroughly. To extract and memorize key points from it was quite the undertaking.

Not to memorize, yet, he feared the instructor would continue his antics, claiming his theory was not solid. This guy could reach out to the leadership, and one day, without giving in, today’s embarrassment might just cause the leadership to dismiss his work with a light chuckle as fundamentally flawed.
