Fan Congwen also took the initiative to thank Xiao He: "I have investigated the matter you mentioned and found out the details, but I haven't had a chance to thank you yet."
Xiao He realized that Fan Congwen was referring to the incident of drugging someone in the dressing room.
"It's nothing, just a small favor," Xiao He replied calmly. "Thanks to Director Fan, the atmosphere on set has improved a lot, and everyone is able to focus on their work."
Especially those troublemakers like Yuan Sitong, they've all toned down a lot now, which is truly commendable.
Fan Congwen was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled: "You young people are so direct—but I like it."
He put his hands behind his back, and his tone became slightly more serious: "Don't worry, Director Zhuang has his reasons for appointing me as assistant director, and I will naturally play my due role in the crew."
Xiao He breathed a sigh of relief.
That would be perfect.
They chatted in the ward for a while, and then waited for the first official announcement.
[Police Report: At 18:23 on December 21, 20XX, a serious traffic accident occurred in XX, Beijing...]
A tanker truck overturned while trying to avoid two pedestrians who jaywalked... The accident has so far resulted in 4 deaths and 7 injuries.
Preliminary investigation revealed that pedestrians Zhang (female, 78 years old) and Zhou (male, 81 years old) ran a red light and suddenly crossed the road during the accident. Driver Zhao (male, 31 years old) attempted to swerve to avoid a collision, resulting in the vehicle colliding and overturning…
[Zhao has been ruled out for drunk driving and drug driving... Currently, the police are conducting a thorough investigation of the accident scene...]
We urge all citizens to abide by traffic rules and pay attention to travel safety...
Due to the significant online discussion and widespread public concern, the police adhered to the golden four-hour rule and issued a statement to clarify the situation after initially determining the details of the accident.
However, this announcement did not stop the public outcry, and even more people began to pay attention to the matter.
Everyone here grew up doing reading comprehension exercises, and many test-taking enthusiasts were quick to identify the key points in this announcement.
So it wasn't actually the tanker truck driver's fault, but rather that those two guys from Laubus were peeking out from behind the scenes?
[Those two people are just a bit more despicable. In this situation, if someone is hit, the driver definitely can't escape responsibility. But these two pedestrians must be held accountable!]
[As I said before, don't believe or spread rumors, and don't start yelling at drivers every time something happens. Some pedestrians are just asking for trouble; I'm almost driven to the brink of road rage by them.]
Some elderly people cross the road without ever looking back. And you could say, "Fine, we'll let them go," but they just walk slowly and deliberately, sometimes even standing in the road to block your way. It's infuriating!
[I encountered an old lady like this last time. She deliberately blocked my way as I was leaving the complex, swaying her little shopping basket. I was on the early shift and in my haste, I honked my horn. She immediately lay down on the ground, insisting that my horn had given her a heart attack! I was speechless! In the end, because honking is prohibited in the complex, I was fined and had to pay some compensation. My company also lost my perfect attendance bonus for being late…]
[Haha, some elderly people these days are really... they'll behave themselves once their pension is deducted.]
[Holy crap, this is infuriating! That's four lives! You'd better tell me these two people are on the death list too.]
[That driver was clearly also at fault. First of all, in that situation, he shouldn't have made that sudden turn of the steering wheel. Normally, you should yield to speed rather than give way. He was driving a tanker truck, not just any ordinary car. The probability of a rollover from a sharp turn is extremely high. Didn't he know the danger? His behavior was irresponsible towards himself and others.]
I don't want to argue about whether the driver's actions were right or wrong. After all, in such a sudden crisis, not everyone can make the right choice without making any mistakes. I just want to know what's going on with those two elderly people now.
[It appears that the elderly man among them was in a wheelchair.]
[Uh, a scary thought popped into my head: could this old lady be deliberately trying to scam me?]
Holy crap, this is terrifying to think about.
[Yes, she pushed the old man's wheelchair, deliberately choosing a very tricky angle to get in front of the bus and rush out. Isn't that intentional murder?]
