Zhao Dong did not dare to move his hands and feet, so he could only comfort him: "Okay, it's okay, relax, don't be nervous."
He did not dare to tell the truth about the matter, and had to wait for the other party to calm down before talking.
One thought of heaven, one thought of hell.
This kind of emotional change can completely destroy a person's will!
After a while, Zhu Jing's mood gradually returned to calm, "Are you the only one?"
Bright eyes reflect light in the darkness.
Zhao Dong couldn't bear to hit her, so he could only vaguely say: "Others are outside, I'll take the first step!"
Zhu Jing breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you for coming. I really thought I would never get out again."
As if she was a little embarrassed, she whispered: "I'm sorry, I just made you laugh. Zhao Dong, you...do you have any water on your body?"
Zhao Dong handed over the water bottle.
Zhu Jing was really thirsty. Coupled with her emotional stress, she lost a lot of water in her body and her lips were cracked.
Most of the bottle of mineral water was drank in the blink of an eye, causing the person to choke and cough.
In this situation, this water might be life-saving, but Zhao Dong didn't feel any distress at all. Instead, he consoled him: "Drink slowly."
Zhu Jing wiped her mouth and said, "Thank you for coming down to me!"
"Really, I didn't expect that the first person to discover me would be you!"
"By the way, how is it outside?"
Zhao Dong changed the topic and said: "You still have the nerve to say it. Didn't I tell you before that I would only investigate in the town? I also told you not to take risks. Why did you end up in the mine?"
Zhu Jing said hurriedly: "I was about to tell you that when I was visiting the town, I heard some clues from a fellow villager, and that's why I came to the mine!"
"I'm really sorry for causing everyone to worry!"
"I didn't think much about it at the time. I just felt that this clue was more newsworthy. If I could find something, I could reverse the public opinion of the whole incident and help Jiaqi share some of the pressure!"
Hearing that the other party also took risks because of Jiaqi, Zhao Dong couldn't bear to scold him anymore, "Then why did you come here?"
Zhu Jing said angrily: "I blame my carelessness. I thought I would just leave after taking the photos, but I didn't expect it. I was suddenly knocked unconscious!"
"When I woke up, I was tied up here!"
Zhao Dong asked, "What is the clue you just mentioned?"
Zhu Jing explained, “There was a landslide under the mine and someone was buried underneath!”
Zhao Dong almost laughed out of anger, "Then you sneaked in?"
As a reporter, it is right to pursue the truth, but doesn’t she have any precautions?
After listening to other people's revelations, I dared to rush into the mine without analyzing the situation!
I really don’t know whether to say she is brave or stupid!
This time she was lucky. The other party just trapped her. If the other party had a sudden idea, it would be too late for her to regret it!
Under the light, he saw that Zhu Jing was full of tears and her face was messy, so Zhao Dong didn't say anything more.
The matter has come to this, it’s too late to complain!
If his guess is correct, the whistleblower should have deliberately lured Zhu Jing into the mine!
But right now, how to escape is the most important thing!
Because the light was dark, Zhu Jing did not notice the change in Zhao Dong's expression, and said apologetically: "Zhao Dong, I'm so sorry, I know I must have caused trouble for everyone!"
"Don't worry, I've taken the photos. There was indeed a landslide down there!"
"As long as I return to the provincial capital, I can apply for relevant departments to intervene and conduct verification immediately!"
Zhao Dong smiled bitterly and didn't know how to answer the question.
Zhu Jing moved her legs and feet, "Let's go, let's get out of here, my physical strength has almost recovered!"
Zhao Dong didn't say much and led him all the way back to the main alleyway.
Zhu Jing followed behind, wondering: "Zhao Dong, why is there so much dust here? Are you hiding something from me?"
Seeing that Zhu Jing had doubts, Zhao Dong stopped hiding it from her, "I'll tell you the truth, but you must be mentally prepared!"
Zhu Jing calmed down quickly, "Tell me, I'm a reporter, and my mental quality is not as bad as you think!"
Zhao Dong told the truth about the situation.
After hearing this, Zhu Jing was so scared that she covered her mouth. It took her a while to recover, "You mean, someone deliberately caused a mining disaster and wanted to bury us here?"
Zhao Dong nodded, "As far as the current situation is concerned, that's it."
After a short period of silence, Zhu Jing felt even more apologetic, "I'm sorry, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been in danger..."
Zhao Dong reassured: "Why are you talking about this now? If it weren't for Jiaqi, you wouldn't be involved in this matter."
Zhu Jing argued, "But I am a reporter, reporting the truth and pursuing the truth. This is my professional creed, and I am not afraid of sacrifice!"
Zhao Dong didn't answer, and the atmosphere was briefly silent.
Especially the flashlight in Zhao Dong's hand seemed to have a poor connection, and the light began to appear and disappear.
Zhu Jing was a little afraid of the dark, so she subconsciously grabbed the corner of Zhao Dong's clothes and said in a timid voice: "Zhao Dong... can we... still go out?"
Zhao Dong turned his head, looked into her eyes and said firmly: "Yes, our current situation must be known to the outside world, they will not give up rescuing us!"
"Besides, there are family members waiting for us outside. The next situation may be a little difficult, but we must not give up our faith!"
When I said this, Sophie's voice and smile suddenly appeared in my mind.
Zhao Dong secretly clenched his fists, inhaled slowly, and slowly raised the corners of his mouth!
Zhu Jing nodded desperately. Infected by Zhao Dong's emotions, the confidence she had just lost slowly regained her confidence!
Although I have just met the man in front of me twice, I don't know why, but he always gives people a sense of security.
Even if you are in danger, it doesn't seem so scary with him by your side.
Especially just now, her whole body was about to be swallowed up by darkness.
This man descended from the sky with a ray of light, as if he had pulled her out of hell!
Women's minds are inherently extremely sensitive, especially in this desperate situation.
The masculine aura of Zhao Dong made her subconsciously want to rely on him!
It was a strange feeling that she had never experienced before. Zhu Jing did not dare to think about it, let alone allow this emotion to continue to amplify. She could only hide it: "Zhao Dong, what should we do now?"
Zhao Dong analyzed calmly, "This is a black mine, and the design and mining of the tunnels did not follow standard construction specifications."
"The mine tunnels are criss-crossed, and rescuers must not dare to excavate hastily, otherwise it will easily cause secondary landslides!"
“The safest solution at present is to clean up the gravel in the main tunnel!”
"This method is the safest, but also the most time-consuming!"
Zhu Jing had no idea and could only follow Zhao Dong's train of thought, "So what do you mean, we just wait here?"
Zhao Dong's face was solemn, "We can't afford to wait. Haven't you noticed? Breathing here is becoming more and more laborious!"
Zhu Jing hadn't noticed it just now, but now after Zhao Dong's reminder, she discovered something strange!
As Zhao Dong said, the air seems to be getting thinner and thinner!
She bit the corners of her mouth and said nothing, but the palms holding the corners of Zhao Dong's clothes gradually turned white!
A desperate situation that you never expected, what should you do next?
