Chapter 253 Rescued



Immediately after the cable car accident, local interstellar police cordoned off the area.

The reason for such a rapid response is partly due to responsibility, but also because the merchants gave orders that nothing should be released.

Furthermore, the merchants used a very expensive blockchain blockade to record all the personal computer IDs that were activated by everyone within the Shizanshan area at that time.

If during the investigation, it is found that some IDs that should have been blocked were still allowed to leave the game, then it means that this person is highly suspicious.

After listening to the interstellar police, Xu Wenfeng looked at Shang Duojin, who also looked tense and worried and was still talking to his quantum brain bracelet, and thanked him specially.

Shang Duojin was still asking about his third sister when he saw Xu Wenfeng suddenly come over and thank him. He was somewhat flattered.

"No need. I'm Sister Qiao's good friend. Of course I can't ignore her when she encounters trouble."

Although his self-identification sounded a bit strange and the color scheme of his clothes was a bit odd, this did not prevent Xu Wenfeng from being certain that he was a good kid.

After a moment of relief that Qiao Mei had made such a reliable friend, he began communicating with the interstellar police about the upcoming rescue operation.

The heavy snow was about to stop, and without the snow blocking the way, we could quickly board the small aircraft and go down.

The prevailing rule in interstellar space is that while interstellar police are tasked with rescuing people, they must also ensure their own safety before doing so, and not risk their lives in the process.

Furthermore, it is unknown whether the cable car Qiao Mei and the others were riding in was blown to another place due to the strong snow and wind, or whether it formed a snowball and rolled to another place after landing. Therefore, their rescue has not yet been determined or implemented.

We only made a rough estimate of the areas where they might be located.

As the last snowflake disappeared from the sky, large numbers of rescue teams began heading towards the snow-capped mountains and valleys from all directions.

Just before Qiao Mei lost consciousness, she seemed to hear footsteps approaching her.

She tried to say something, but before she could even utter a sound, she was plunged into complete darkness.

The person stopped in front of her and Ao Cang, and tried to push her away, but found that she was like a leech, clinging tightly to Ao Cang's body, and no matter what they did, they couldn't get her off.

At that moment, the sounds of aircraft operating came in large numbers.

The man had no choice but to grit his teeth in resentment, take out a detector-like device, and probe Ao Cang's body.

After confirming that it was emitting a green glow, he turned on his computer bracelet to record the video. Then, unwilling to give up, he glanced at Ao Cang one last time before quickly leaving.

If he doesn't leave now, those people will find him!

When the rescue team arrived, they were so focused on saving lives that they didn't notice a footprint left in the snow that came from the west.

As soon as people gathered around, they trampled all the footprints.

Only Shang Duojin, who had followed along, noticed this and walked a little further away to take pictures of the still relatively clear footprints in the distance.

After all that was done, Qiao Mei and Ao Cang were lifted onto medical stretchers and put into the aircraft. The damaged cable car was also taken away intact, leaving only bloodstains and craters on the spot, indicating that a major accident had occurred here.

...

When Qiao Mei woke up again, the strong smell of disinfectant filled her nostrils, and her throat was extremely dry and sore. When she tried to move her body, it felt like someone was hitting her limbs with a hammer, causing excruciating pain.

He could only open his heavy eyes and endure the stinging light to see the scene before him.

Upon closer inspection, several enlarged faces appeared before my eyes.

There are Xu Wenfeng and Xu Hui, as well as Shang Duojin and Shu Qingqing, and Zuo Chenxing and... Xu Heyu?

Qiao Mei didn't have the energy to think deeply about why Xu Heyu had come over. Her head was buzzing as she listened to Xu Hui and the others' anxious questions, but she had no desire to answer. She just turned her head to look at the bed next to her and, not seeing Ao Cang behind her, asked in a hoarse voice, "Where's Cang Ao?"

Upon hearing her mention Ao Cang, Xu Hui and the others' expressions changed instantly, and the atmosphere froze. Qiao Mei's heart tightened, and she tried to sit up.

“Xiao Mei, don’t move around. Cang Ao’s injuries are more serious than yours. There are still a lot of glass shards in his body. Because of his special condition, your Uncle Li is personally helping him with treatment. He hasn’t even left the operating room yet.”

As the director of the Royal Familia Animal Treatment Center, Li Chonghua should theoretically only be able to treat Familia animals.

However, because interstellar familiars share many physical similarities with humans, those who wish to enter a familiar healing center generally need to excel in treating humans.

Li Chonghua was very skilled at treating people, so no one would object to him performing the treatment on Ao Cang.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Mei felt a little relieved, but only a little.

After all, she had no idea about Ao Cang's current situation.

She tried to sit up to ask about the details of the accident, but Xu Hui pressed her down again.

"Xiao Mei, just lie down. You're not in a good condition to sit up. Tell your mother how you fell down. Was it really just a loose screw on the cable car?"

Qiao Mei nodded: "Yes, by the time I noticed something was wrong, the cable car had already detached and was falling straight down, as if someone had calculated when the cable car's screws would come loose, but I'm not sure if it was just a coincidence."

Xu Wenfeng angrily interjected, "It's absolutely not a coincidence. After the incident, the police immediately asked the cable car management staff for the surveillance footage, but there just happened to be no footage of the period after your cable car departed. Who would believe it wasn't a setup?!"

Qiao Mei had only just learned about this matter, and then pressed Xu Wenfeng to tell her how the investigation was going.

There are quite a few people who are targeting her right now. Some of them have conflicts with Xu Wenfeng, some are with her, and then there's Ao Cang.

But she felt that Ao Cang was hiding it quite well, so the possibility was probably the lowest.

Just then, Shang Duojin brought up the optical computer screen and projected it into the air.

"Actually, there's something else I haven't had a chance to say yet. I was thinking of asking Sister Qiao when she wakes up. Sister Qiao, when you were down there, did you really not see anyone?"

The photo projected into the air clearly shows a long trail of snow tracks that look very much like a man's footprints.

Judging from the direction they came from, they were coming from the deep mountains; they definitely don't look like a rescue team.

Before Qiao Mei lost consciousness, she heard a sound of snow being compacted. At the time, she thought it was the rescue team arriving, but now it seems that it wasn't at all!
