Trantor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi- Bo Studio
“Second Brother and Third Brother went to Chen County to find out about you. Brother Min Nan and Dai Wei searched around the vige. Brother Min Nan said that you might be on the mountain near the forest farm, so he went up the mountain with Brother Dai Wei and two policemen.”
“What?” Ye Ling was stunned. “When did theye up the mountain?” she asked hurriedly.
“About an hour ago.”
Ye Ling didn’t know what to say. She had missed out perfectly with Min Nan!
If she had stayed in the forest, she would have met Min Nan and brought Yu
Huan out.
However, if she hadn’t gone down the mountain, she definitely wouldn’t have met the injured man.
Without her help, the other party probably wouldn’t have been able to hold on for so long. At that time, no one would have known about the workers buried under the mine.
“Wan Xue.” Ye Ling said to Wan Xue in a serious tone, “Quickly bring us to the vige chief. I have something very important to tell him.”
Wan Xue had already noticed that there was a man covered in blood who entered with Ye Ling.
Wan Xue was still a little afraid when he first saw the man, but he felt that since Ye Ling had brought him back, he shouldn’t be a bad person.
Ten minutester, Wan Xue brought Ye Ling and the man to the vige chief’s house.
Wan Xue knocked hard on the door and woke up the vige chief’s family. Ye Ling asked the man to tell the vige chief about the mine.
The vige chief’s expression changed when he heard that. He looked at the man in shock. “Is what you said true?”
The man was extremely anxious. “What good will I get if I lie? Can you quickly send someone to save the workers trapped in the mine? Some of them were seriously injured and the situation was urgent!”
“Wait a moment, let me think about it…” After hearing the man’s words, the vige chief did not immediately go to find someone to help. Instead, he revealed a thoughtful and troubled expression.
Ye Ling’s heart sank. She immediately guessed the vige chief’s concerns.
If this matter were to blow up in the end, the vige cadre of Willow Vige would have to bear the final responsibility.
Ye Ling had heard that Wang Gang had a good rtionship with many people in the production team. Now, it seemed that these rtionships were very likely maintained with money. Those people might know that Wang Gang was secretly mining.
If something happened to Wang Gang, those people would be affected.
Ye Ling didn’t know how close the vige chief of Willow Vige was to Wang Gang, but even if the vige chief hadn’t been bribed by Wang Gang, he was worried that his status would be affected if this matter blew up.
Ye Ling took a deep breath and said softly, “Vige chief, don’t hesitate. That’s more than ten lives. If you don’t save them, you’ll go to hell after you die.”
Ye Ling’s voice was cold and ethereal. In such a quiet night, it sounded like a ghost. When the vige chief heard the words “go to hell”, his pupils constricted, and the hesitation in his heart immediately disappeared by half.
“Alright, alright,e with me. Let’s go find Old Zhao first. He used to dig tunnels with the county engineering team. He’s considered a semi-professional.” The vige chief put on a thin coat and said as he walked out.
Ye Ling followed him and said in a serious tone, “Also, call the people from the health center over. Those workers are seriously injured and need a lot of disinfectant and hemostatic drugs.”
The vige chief hurriedly nodded. “Yes. I’m so anxious that I’m confused. I’ll get someone to look for the people from the health center now.” After the vige chief called every one, the group prepared to go up the mountain.
At this moment, the vige chief inadvertently turned his head and saw that Ye
Ling was still following behind the crowd. He could not help but reprimand,
“It’s none of your business. Why don’t you go back? Don’t join in the fun!”
“Vige Chief, I have something to tell you. Come here for a moment.” Ye Ling’s eyes flickered.
The vige chief had been sleeping well at night. After being woken up by Wan Xue and Ye Ling in the middle of the night, he heard about such a bad thing. Now, he was very displeased with Ye Ling.
Initially, he did not want to hear what Ye Ling had to say, but when he saw the surrounding group of people looking at Ye Ling, he could not ignore the reports of the crowd as the vige chief. He could only helplessly say, “Alright, you guys go up the mountain first. Ye Ling,e with me!”
The two of them walked to the side of the path.
The vige chief looked at the group of people holding torches and asked absent-mindedly, “What do you want? Tell me quickly..”
