Chapter 665: Rescue Process
Chapter 665: Rescue Process
Dr. Yu promised me to keep the news of heart disease a secret from people other than Ai ShuQiao for the time being.
After that he drew a tube of blood from me and said he was going to freeze it and mail it to his friend in America, the one nicknamed “Poison King”.
I was bored watching him work on the analysis table, so I asked how people were looking for me after I disappeared.
Let’s rewind the time to yesterday afternoon, when I ran down Cui Song Mountain and ran into a nameless mountain. The butterfly catchers like the gangsters conducted a large search for me.
The problem was that the three groups were not on the same page. The few who saw me dive headfirst into the dark mountain spread rumors that I had returned to the hotel and was about to trade the butterfly for a reward so as to trick everyone else away.
Not many people came after me in the end. The bald man was one of them, in total, 3 or 4 people chased after me for some time but lost my trail. They also met a bear, so they got scared and fled in a hurry.
Rumors of all kinds then spread to the top of Cui Song Mountain. Some said I had returned to the city, some said I was hiding in the hotel basement, some said I had been eaten by a bear, and some said the bear was me in disguise…
While many of my classmates were jealous that I was about to get $500,000, the class leader analyzed from the myriad of different accounts that I may not be in a good situation.
She first made a phone call to Xiao Qin, who was at the hotel, to ask if I had returned to the hotel.
The reason why she didn’t call me directly was because she was afraid that if my phone rang suddenly, it would expose my tracks if I was still being chased.
In fact, at that time I had already run into the deep forest and I didn’t have a signal. When the class leader wanted to call me later, she couldn’t reach me anymore.
Xiao Qin, who was sleeping with my T-shirt, was awakened by the phone call. After learning from the class leader that my whereabouts were unknown, she immediately jumped out from the bed.
“No wonder I had a nightmare, as expected…”
Xiao Qin quickly hung up, then led the satiated Obama, and threw herself to my rescue.
But I left my scent behind in too many places today, so Obama took a lot of detours with Xiao Qin. The butterfly catchers also didn’t give up, they deliberately fabricated rumors to mislead the rescue team, saying I ran into the other two large mountains next to Cui Song Mountain, and did not run into the nameless mountain with obvious warning signs at the foot of the mountain.
There were a lot of conflicting information and the class leader, who could no longer reach me on my cell phone, realized that the situation might be even worse than expected.
So she immediately asked for assistance from the Yi Ning District Police and Fire Departments (she had looked up their phone numbers before coming on the trip). She told them that a student had gone missing from the hike and may have run into wild animals or fell off a cliff.
At the time, the overly optimistic Winnie was by her side, she thought I was just hiding temporarily until my pursuers left so I could sell the butterfly.
“Class leader, you’re too paranoid, Ye Lin is fine.”
“I was the one who brought Ye Lin, a student of class 2-3, out here, so I can’t let anything happen to him.” The class leader’s gaze flashed, “The same goes for your guys.”
In dire times, the class leader, who shouldered a huge responsibility, did not frantically search for me regardless of the consequences like Xiao Qin. She forced herself to calm down and choose the best route that would allow me to be rescued.
After contacting the firefighters and police, the class leader asked Winnie to call Ai Mi with the news that I was missing.
The class leader knew that Ai Mi had a lot of manpower and a helicopter that would play a big role in the rescue.
Ai Mi was filming, so Peng TouSi was the one who answered the phone. He immediately deployed manpower and sent both the helicopter and RV out to aid in my rescue.
Ai Mi only learned of the news from Peng TouSi during a break in filming. She was so angry that she scolded Peng TouSi and lost her temper with the make-up artist who came over to fix her make-up, then she finally kicked the director in the shin and told him, “I won’t be in the next episode.” Then she also took a car to the mountain and held a loudspeaker in the helicopter while shouting: “Where the hell are you, damn manservant?”
Although Ai Mi’s voice was amplified through a loudspeaker, but I had fallen into a bear trap and passed out, so I did not hear it.
After I woke up, Ai Mi’s voice was hoarse and the helicopter needed refueling. Peng TouSi felt the high-altitude search and rescue was not really effective, so he joined the firefighters in a ground search and rescue.
The police were the last to arrive, it seems they were delayed, but once they came, they showed a lot of their power.
The crowd of hooligans who still had their eyes on the butterfly had almost all ran away.
They probably all had criminal records.
Only that smart gangster remained in the hotel to drink tea. He said he was a good law-abiding citizen and never left any evidence behind of his bad deeds. He had also paid the hotel rent for a long time, so he was ready to continue to search for these butterflies on Cui Song Mountain for the next few months.
Since one already appeared, there is a possibility of a second one, right?
Xiao Qin once said the butterfly was the reincarnation of the story of the Butterfly Lovers.
Zhu YingTai would be sad Liang ShanBo doesn’t return home, but there’s still a lot of people waiting here to catch her too!
The other people who temporarily retreated also have similar ideas. They wanted to first avoid police questioning, then come back to Cui Song Mountain later to find the butterfly because they don’t believe there was only one butterfly in the whole mountain.
From then on, there wasn’t another blue morpho discovered on Cui Song Mountain, so all those looking to get rich wasted their time.
But they at least paid a lot of money to the school to live in the hotel. In conclusion, they gave money to aid disabled children, so it would count as good karma.
The class leader knew how to use a shotgun because she was taught by her uncle who was a forest ranger and she also had some experience in forest exploration.
She had her reasons on why she did not disguise herself as a female forest warrior to look for me like Xiao Qin.
First, she did not have a dog or my T-shirt as a scent source.
Secondly, as the person who organized this field trip, she was also responsible for the safety of the other students.
After confirming that I was missing, Niu ShiLi volunteered to lead a team to look for me. Winnie, who realized it was serious, also dispelled the idea that I was hiding myself and was the first to sign up for the class 2-3 independent search and rescue team.
The class leader sternly stopped them. In her opinion, even if you were as strong as Niu ShiLi, or as athletic as Winnie, you should not rashly enter the dangerous forest.
The fact that one of her classmates was missing in class 2-3 was already enough to make her anxious.
Also, there was also no news on Xiao Qin, who was the first to go looking for me.
The class leader organized all the students of class 2-3 to return from the top of the mountain to the hotel, while also thinking carefully about whether to inform our parents about the disappearance of Xiao Qin and me.
All sorts of speculation and all sorts of claims spread among the students. Teacher Yu was also full of remorse because his students got into an accident. Niu ShiLi and Winnie even tried to sneak into the mountain several times to do a search and rescue and it was a complete mess.
All the responsibility was focused on the class leader’s shoulders, so she couldn’t leave everything behind to look for me like Xiao Qin. In fact, I didn’t want her to do that, since I knew that she did not have a shotgun in hand, but there were bears and even rats larger than slippers inside the mountain.
After a period of consideration, the class leader told Loud Mouth and Teacher Yu to lead the group back to the city as originally planned.
“The ones who are willing to stay and wait for news, can stay, but you aren’t allowed to enter the mountains without approval to do a search and rescue.”
The class leader demanded of the students who stayed behind.
“I’m more worried than any of you, but it is because I understand the danger of the mountain that I cannot rashly let you in.”
“Heh heh heh…” Zhuang Ni laughed heartily as she was pushed into the route 23 bus by Loud Mouth and said in a dark tone, “It seems my curse worked…”
Led by Niu ShiLi, the boys I played basketball with basically all stayed behind, except for Sun Yu.
Mu ZhongMing, who had three monks in the family, said: If we unfortunately find my corpse, then he will be responsible for chanting sutras to help me pass on peacefully.
I am so touched, but Buddha has a saying: Killing evil is also doing good, so if you have time to recite sutras, I would rather you go and kill Zhuang Ni, the one who cursed me.
Among the girls, only Winnie was allowed to stay behind. The class leader realized there was no way she would wait patiently at the hotel for news, so in order to prevent her from heading into the mountains, she had to agree to let her participate in the search and rescue. But the condition was she had to follow Ai Mi’s group and not stray away from Peng TouSi.
As for Niu ShiLi, who was also concerned for my safety, the class leader made him responsible for leading the group of boys to do some auxiliary rescue work, such as providing water to the firefighters and police or something.
After all the hard work, the class leader sat on a chair and almost collapsed, but she had to think about when to notify Xiao Qin and my parents.
They always say “report good news but not bad news”. Informing the parents that their only child was missing in the mountains is a strenuous job.
However, there was no reason to hide it from our parents, so the class leader first called Auntie Ren cell and then my dad’s cell (their numbers were left when they registered for the parent teacher conference).
But she couldn’t reach Auntie Ren. It turns out that she and Ai Mi were together on the same set, when she heard that Ai Mi kicked the director and left, she learned that the reason was because I went missing.
She had a bad premonition and called Xiao Qin’s cell phone, but she couldn’t reach her. After contacting Peng TouSi, he regrettably told her that not only had I disappeared, her daughter was also missing.
Auntie Ren immediately went crazy and drove her bumblebee from film city all the way over.
Although Film City was also on the outskirts of the city, it was in the opposite direction, so it was far from Cui Song Mountain. Auntie Ren did not obey the traffic rules, she ran red light and even drove against the traffic. She met those hooligans who were afraid of being questioned by the police head-on.
Unfortunately, there was a car accident.
