Chapter 430 Leverage

Bai Xi said with a fearless expression, "The parents of the students Sister Ting rescued posted about Sister Ting online, accusing her of causing their students to be trapped in the woods. They said it was because of Sister Ting that they were injured and died. Sun Qian's parents even directly accused Sister Ting of preventing the search and rescue team from rescuing their child because of a conflict.

In addition to Sister Ting, even the members of the search and rescue team were exposed online by them. They accused the members of the search and rescue team of being irresponsible and turning a blind eye to the trapped students.

The guy you brought out the first time, Bai Chuan, even came out and recorded a video, putting all the blame on you and the search and rescue team members. Now the media is not only looking for Sister Ting, they've also surrounded the search and rescue team's office. So far, the search and rescue team has not responded."

Lin Ting sneered, "What a bunch of idiots."

"I guess those stupid parents knew what their children had done, so they thought of using public opinion to divert attention. The best way to spread the word in this case is to put the blame on me and the search and rescue team."

"No wonder there are fewer and fewer people doing good deeds nowadays. They are all scared by these stories about the farmer and the snake."

"Which parents are driving this public opinion?" Lin Ting asked in a cold voice, his body leaning on the sofa emitting a strong chill.

"Except for the squad leader's parents, all the other parents are here. The ones making the most noise are Sun Qian's parents, as well as the one who was rescued, Bai Chuan, and his parents. Assistant Zhang said they're at the police station right now, hoping they can go into the mountains to search for their child as soon as possible. They haven't said a word about this incident, indicating they know nothing."

"Since we failed to win them over, the couple has been kicked out. Let the police protect them first. By the way, tell Captain Han of the search and rescue team that we won't be going into the mountains today." Lin Ting tapped the table with her fingers. She looked up at Bai Xi and said, "Give me your phone so I can check the news."

Bai Xi looked at Lin Ting and stammered, "Sister Ting, you'd better not read it. It's full of bad comments, and there are a lot of malicious comments in the comment section."

"It's okay, I'll see what they sent." Lin Ting was so calm.

Only when you know yourself and your enemy can you know how to fight back against them.

Bai Xi was too stubborn to persuade Lin Ting, so he had to hand over the phone.

Perhaps there is a mastermind behind the scenes fanning the flames, as this incident has become a hot topic, attracting more attention from passers-by and netizens.

This short essay was probably written by a professional. The whole article is full of passionate accusations, accusing her of disregarding human lives, accusing the search and rescue team members of having problems with the rescue, and even accusing her of maliciously promoting things like being able to get close to animals just to collect money.

The search and rescue team was even accused of professional issues, and it was said that they deliberately colluded to prevent ordinary people from entering the protected area to rescue people in order to operate in secret.

Lin Ting laughed at these brainless and useless accusations, especially the accusation of maliciously closing the reserve. If such a person was thrown into the reserve, even black bears would dislike his stupidity and refuse to eat him.

Lin Ting scrolled through the comments and found many passionate people agreeing. They also hoped that the Sichuan Forestry Bureau would open the reserve to allow ordinary people to go in and search for the trapped people. Some even said that the reserve was just a forest and there was nothing valuable there, so they didn't know what they were protecting?

At the same time, many people scolded her and the search and rescue team, saying that the search and rescue team was unprofessional and that she disregarded lives in order to make money. It was a pity that people thought she was a good person for saving people, but her purpose was to market her personality and take the opportunity to make money.

There were many people who scolded her and the members of the search and rescue team. Some of them were internet trolls, and some were passers-by who had no judgment and were misled by the internet trolls.

There were still a small number of passers-by who remained sober, raised questions, and said that there were many things to protect animals in the reserve, but they were scolded back by the excited netizens and internet trolls. After that, there were few comments. After all, these keyboard warriors and netizens with no judgment were too powerful.

There are also some refreshing netizens who just watch and do not participate in the battle.

Lin Ting threw the phone to Bai Xi, and she also charged her own phone and was able to turn it on.

After turning on the phone, she looked at the message content while charging.

As soon as she turned on her phone, hundreds of messages popped up, including WeChat text messages and phone calls. Most of them were concerned about her. Bai Xi Si Chen and Lin Jing had called her many times, and when they couldn't get through, they changed to text messages and WeChat messages.

On WeChat, staff from the Cute Pet Hospital and the cat cafe sent her messages of concern and greetings, and even asked her not to go online to read those comments and not to go out for the time being to avoid indiscriminate attacks from crazy passers-by.

Qin Yu also sent her a message asking if she needed traffic assistance, and many friends also asked her if she needed help?

Lin Ting replied to everyone one by one, saying that she didn't need help yet, and even tactfully told them that the matter was not over yet.

How can it be considered the end when the evidence in her hands has not been released yet?

Finally, she warned Qin Yu not to post anything random things online. She could forward the Sichuan police's notice and the Sichuan Forestry Bureau's video later, but now was not the time to speak.

Lin Ting had just sent a message to Qin Yu, and before she had time to read Qin Yu's reply, the Forestry Bureau called her. She paused and clicked to answer.

"Hello, Deputy Section Chief Zhao."

"Ms. Lin, I won't be polite with you. I called you this time to discuss your opinion on how to handle this matter. Right now, everyone on the Internet is criticizing the Forestry Bureau, the search and rescue team, and you. I've contacted Captain Han and the police, but the police haven't released the results of their investigation yet. Captain Han can't respond without evidence. I called you before but couldn't get through."

"I'm sorry, Deputy Section Chief Zhao. My phone ran out of battery and shut down automatically. Since Captain Qian hasn't finished his investigation yet, let's wait and see. Let's let public opinion ferment a little bit. We'll respond when it's done. We can use this wave of traffic to promote environmental protection in the reserve and serve as a warning to everyone. You can't expect a whole year of hard work to be worth the traffic that's coming to your door. It's a waste not to take it. You're doing this to Deputy Section Chief Zhao."

Upon hearing this, Deputy Section Chief Zhao's originally worried face suddenly broke into a smile. "Ms. Lin is right. It's you young people who know how to use data and how to leverage it."

"I'm just expressing my personal opinion. Ultimately, I still have to listen to the leadership's arrangements. When the time comes, the leadership can find someone to edit the photos of large protected animals in the reserve, as well as the miasma captured by the aerial photography, and release less of them, otherwise some people with ulterior motives will be interested.

After the police and the search and rescue team release the official announcement, you can send it out. I have some other things I'll send to Captain Han of the search and rescue team later."

"Miss Lin still has evidence in her hands?" Deputy Section Chief Zhao said confidently.
