Chapter 10: No Deer in the Deep Forest Lu Shuang 05
With this belief, I spent five days among the families of the miners who died. As the number of confirmed deaths increased, news reports were everywhere. But the numbers they reported were very different from the real numbers I knew.
There are also issues concerning the treatment and compensation of miners, safety in coal mines, etc. Most of the news published in the newspapers have been embellished.
These days I have been using my phone to record what happened here, but because the signal was blocked, I couldn't send the information out. I had to wait for the right opportunity. Now the whole coal mine was in chaos, and it was possible to get out during the chaos.
However, just as I had sorted out the information and was about to contact my colleagues who were still interviewing in the coal mine, two strong men suddenly pushed the door open and scanned the entire room with sharp eyes.
The people who were originally talking immediately fell silent and looked at the two burly men anxiously.
But their eyes finally settled on me.
In fact, the moment I saw them, I had already hidden my phone under the bed, but this action seemed to have been captured by them.
They came towards me, grabbed me, and flipped open the bed.
I struggled for a bit, but I was no match for them in strength , so I could only outsmart them: "Let me go! What do you want to do? I told you I want to see him alive or his body. I won't leave until I find Tian You's body!"
These days, I have been pretending to be a relative of a worker named Tian You . People at the coal mine had no suspicion and only some of the family members knew my identity as a reporter.
I thought I could get away with it this time, but unexpectedly, the burly man raised his hand and easily grabbed my throat.
"You're quite good at pretending. You may not look very old, but you're quite courageous. You dare to make news about your grandfather? Aren't you afraid that your grandfather will kill you?"
The burly man threw my phone and dragged me out.
I knew I couldn't hide it this time, but I wasn't afraid of how they would deal with me. I was still thinking about the information in my phone. That was the evidence I had collected in the past five days. If that evidence could eventually be made public, those dead coal miners would be able to get real justice.
Otherwise, they are just some nameless corpses with their names erased, and the truth is hidden. In the end, no one knows or remembers what happened in this place.
