Chapter 169 Seeing Human Nature
Chi Xia quickly checked his phone and finally found two videos in the phone gallery.
The first video was clicked, and the camera shook a few times before it focused on its target.
Three men.
They are Shi Guangxuan, Yao Lixing, and Guo Yiliang.
The brightness of the video is a bit dim. They should be in a cave somewhere. The person taking the video should be Xiong Jing. Judging from the height of the picture, she should be lying down.
Shi Guangxuan spoke first: "Damn it, I never thought I would get lost. This broken mountain is really worthy of the name of the dead mountain. Damn it, can we still get down?"
Yao Lixing kicked the mineral water bottle away: "Brother Guang, don't worry too much. The captain has already gone to find a way. Let's wait a little longer."
Guo Yiliang sneered: "That lousy captain, he hasn't found a way for a whole day, and he still has the nerve to say that he is the captain of the rescue team. I think he just wants us to give him more money."
"Humph, he must be crazy about money."
It was a bit cold, Shi Guangxuan rubbed his arms and said, "Alright, let's check the supplies quickly, especially the water. At this time, saving lives is more important. There are four of us, so why should we be afraid of him alone?"
"Hey, Xiao Jing is really something. Why is she sick at this time?"
Yao Lixing checked the supplies: "Brother Xuan, even with the things brought by the rescue team leader, we don't have enough dry food and water..."
"The three of us." Shi Guangxuan lowered his voice: "Each of us should take an extra bottle of water."
"Brother, Xiao Jing..."
"That's half a bottle left over, just give it to her. How much can a girl drink?" said Shi Guangxuan.
There was a rustling noise in the cave, and soon the backpack chain was pulled up.
Guo Yiliang said : "Brother, there is no water, what should we do with the man?"
"Is it more important to save your own life or his?"
Shi Guangxuan scolded him in a low voice: "If you feel bad, just give him yours."
"No, no, no."
Guo Yiliang laughed harshly: "As a person, you always have to leave yourself a backup plan, right?"
"Really?"
Yao Lixing echoed, "If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. He should always leave a way out for himself. Now, water and food are our way out."
Not long after the three of them finished talking, Zhao Shengqian, who had gone out to explore the way, came back. He was soaked and injured, and his voice was very weak.
Shi Guangxuan and others immediately came over and said, "Captain Zhao, what happened to you? Why are you injured?"
Zhao Shengqian said weakly, "I fell into a quagmire. The road I took to find you had some problems. We can't go back the same way. I found a new road that's easier to walk. I'll take a break and treat my wounds."
Shi Guangxuan and the others changed their attitude and seemed to be very worried about his condition: "Captain Zhao, you have a serious fever. Why don't you take some medicine quickly?"
Zhao Shengqian refused: "Supplies are scarce, especially medicines. Leave them to the female comrades. Give me a drink of water."
Shi Guangxuan and others were embarrassed: "Captain Zhao, you don't know, Xiaojing has a fever, she's crying for water, we... we have no water now..."
The video suddenly went dark, probably because the camera was blocked, but Zhao Shengqian's voice could still be heard.
"Then I have to take you down the mountain quickly. It's getting late now . So, let me tell you the route for tomorrow... We'll go down early in the morning."
When they were halfway through talking about the route, Zhao Shengqian's voice gradually faded away, and only Shi Guangxuan and the others could be heard saying, "Captain Zhao, you should take a rest first."
The video ends here.
"These bastards hid the dry food in that situation!"
Zhao Jianguo was so angry that his teeth were itching: "Sheng Wazi went to find them alone. How much supplies could he bring? They actually hid it! Isn't this a matter of life and death?"
Chi Xia returned to the gallery interface with a sullen face and opened another video.
Xiong Jing's face appeared in the video.
She hid behind a big rock, looking nervous and holding her cell phone.
"When we set out in the morning, Brother Guo didn't listen to Captain Zhao and almost fell off the mountain. Captain Zhao was injured again while trying to save him. They were afraid that Captain Zhao would drag us down, so they left Captain Zhao on the mountain."
"We are now following the route Captain Zhao told us yesterday to go down the mountain, but Brother Shi seems to have taken the wrong path again. They are now looking for a way out. I want to tell you that if I get into an accident here, it must be the three of them who are causing me trouble. Captain Zhao has no food or drink now. Before we left, Captain Zhao gave me his jacket to wear. I..."
Suddenly, the voices of Shi Guangxuan and the others were heard in the video: "Xiao Jing, are you okay? Hurry up!"
“Hey, here it comes!”
Xiong Jing answered hurriedly, lowering her voice and saying, "If I die, it must be them who harmed me. Remember, my name is Xiong Jing. If I die, the people who harmed me are Shi Guangxuan, Yao Lixing, and Guo Yiliang!"
The video ends.
Chi Xia and others didn't speak for a long time.
Although it was a scorching hot June, they only felt a chill on their backs.
"As a human being, you must always have a backup plan for yourself. If you don't take care of yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth."
"Supplies are scarce, especially medicine. Save them for the female comrades."
The words of the rescued and the rescuers echoed over and over again in the minds of those present.
Zhao Shengqian went to find a way for them to survive, but they felt that he was obsessed with money.
He came to them alone, carrying supplies for four people, and they hid the water source.
He came back injured and wanted to drink some water, but they were talking nonsense. He didn't care and left the precious medicine to the girls.
When he was leading them down the mountain, someone disobeyed him, so he saved him and got injured himself...
They thought he was a burden and left him where he was.
He even gave his warm jacket to the only girl in the team. He must have thought that they would be back soon after they got down the mountain.
Even though Xiong Jing noticed their selfishness, she still didn't say a word for Zhao Shengqian when danger came. She cared about herself most.
They finally got down the mountain safely. As someone who knew the inside story, even though she had these two videos in her hands, which were enough to clear the captain's name, she still chose to remain silent and let rumors slander the innocent man who died tragically.
If they had left a bottle of water, if they had left a little food, if Zhao Shengqian had met other people in the team...
If only there was one more thing, he might not have died.
Zhao Jianguo sighed and paced back and forth several times before he suppressed his anger.
Chi Xia and Luo Xun watched the two videos again.
"Who do you think put it there?" Luo Xun asked.
Chi Xia exhaled, and she said, "Except for the fake fox, there is no one else."
"What's the purpose?"
Luo Xun was a little confused: "What's the point of going to so much trouble to put this thing in there if we can't find it?"
"Even if we found out, this shouldn't be a gift to us."
Chi Xia also felt something was wrong: "If we don't find out, all her work will be in vain, but if we find out..."
At this moment, Wei Guoliang rushed in from outside the police station with a mobile phone in his hand.
He shouted, "Captain Luo, Officer Chi! Master, check your phones! Something's wrong!"
"What's wrong?" Luo Xun asked him.
Chi Xia had already taken Wei Guoliang's phone. When she saw the interface, she frowned and said, "Damn, I've been tricked."
Wei Guoliang's mobile phone interface was a social networking site interface, and at this moment, the two videos they had just seen had spread rapidly in a short period of time and had become one of the most searched topics.
Luo Xun immediately took out his cell phone.
"The time when all mainstream media released the video was similar to the time when we opened Xiong Jing's phone." He suddenly realized something.
Chi Xia also discovered this.
"Xiong Jing's phone has already been set up."
She exhaled softly: "Once we find the clue of the Guan Gong statue, the moment we open the phone, this action will be like a key, and the truth of the matter will be published on the Internet."
She opened the social software on her phone, and sure enough, the video was sent from the phone in their hands.
The message is sent when the phone is turned on.
If the incident five years ago was only spread in a small area of Yubin, then this time.
The other party wants to make it public in front of the people of the whole country.
Chi Xia knew that it must have been done by the fake fox, but she was rarely angry.
In her heart, she felt that this was right.
Only in this way can the infamy and injustice that Zhao Shengqian and the rescue team suffered innocently back then be completely cleared.
The wider they spread, the cleaner they are.
When she realized that she was getting excited about this, her head began to ache.
But even so, they still have to clean up this situation, and clean it up cleanly.
At the same time, on Luo Xun's mobile phone, Curly sent more detailed personal information about several members of the rescue team.
