It was raining heavily in Huangyan County. After Lu Man Man, Ye Heng, and Qin Ao finished their meal, they headed towards Paddy Valley village.
Paddy Valley village was located at the westernmost part of Wen City. In Lu Man Man’s previous life, she had rarely heard news about this place. Indeed, the mountains were high and the emperor was far away. Almost no one was in charge of this blind spot. If Mo Xiuyuan had not come here by accident this time.., she did not know how long this place would be forgotten.
The three of them walked towards the depths of paddy field village. The passers-by on the way all advised them not to go in. It was still raining heavily and there was still a serious mudslide there. It was possible that they would be buried halfway there, some also said that even if they were lucky enough to go in, they would be trapped and unable to get out. The rescue team did not know how long it would take to go in. Even if they were hungry, they would starve to death in there!
Finally, the three of them walked to the entrance of paddy fields. A slightly rotten signboard read “Paddy fields”.
Lu Man suddenly stopped in her tracks and removed her gloves from her hands.
The cold air almost made her fingers stiffen.
She said to ye Heng, “Ye Heng, help me block the rain.”
As it was inconvenient to carry an umbrella, they were all wearing assault jackets and raincoats on their faces. She wanted to make a call now, afraid that her phone would get wet.
Mo Xiuyuan had said that there was no signal in paddy fields, so she did not know how deep it was. Making a phone call now should be the safest option.
Ye Heng looked at her and was a little surprised, but he still used his raincoat to shield her.
Lu Man’s stiff fingers breathed in the cold air and dialed the number. In fact, her entire face was a little frozen. Fortunately, she had been exercising and did not feel particularly cold.
On the other end of the line, she picked up the call and asked in a lazy tone, “Man man, what’s the matter?”
“Gu Xin, I’m very serious right now. Listen carefully, you must help me do it, understand?”Lu man said, enunciating each word clearly.
Gu Xin was a little confused. Suddenly being so serious made her a little nervous.
“I’m currently in Paddy Village, in a small village in the westernmost area of Wen City…”
“What are you going there for!”Gu Xin immediately became agitated.
“Quiet down first and listen to me,”Lu Man’s tone became even more serious, “There’s a mudslide here and the rain is pouring heavily. All the villagers inside are trapped and Mo Xiuyuan is also trapped inside. The rescue equipment in paddy fields village is outdated and there’s no way to enter. Right now, I need to go in with Ye Heng and the others to look for Mo Xiuyuan. And I need you to do something for me now. You Go to your father immediately and help me mobilize the largest media outlets in Wen City to report the current situation in paddy fields. Don’t listen to hearsay. Let them go to Huangyan town, the nearest town to paddy fields, to understand the situation on the spot. At the same time, send a helicopter to paddy fields to do on-site photography. If the rain is too heavy and the helicopter can’t fly safely, let them think of a way to enter paddy fields to take some on-site photos. “The content of the broadcast is mainly to increase the influence of this news. In other words, you have to let everyone know about this news. According to what we know, in order to avoid responsibility, the local government will weaken and deal with the mudslide. You have to make this matter more serious and resonate with the public. At the same time, you have to put pressure on the municipal government to mobilize the municipal rescue team to rescue paddy fields village.”
“But I’ve never done it before. I’m afraid…”Gu Xin listened to Lu Man and didn’t dare to compliment her own work ability.
“I believe that you can do it,”Lu man said. “If you can’t do it, I might be trapped in paddy village.”
“Can’t you not go?”Gu Xin couldn’t help but ask.
“No.”
