The coal mine collapsed.
I don’t know how many workers were trapped underneath.
At this moment, the collapsed area has become a ruin, as if there is a visible executioner, desperately pressing everyone's throat, watching them die bit by bit.
Troops came in waves, and the soldiers disregarded their own safety and searched for signs of life.
The deputy mine manager was crying as he followed Sheng Xijiang and the others to explain, "I don't know why the coal mine suddenly collapsed. We have been mining coal for more than ten years, and our coal mine has always been recognized as the safest coal mine. There has never been a collapse accident. What happened this time?
Comrades, I beg you, I beg you to rescue all the workers down there. They are still young and the pillars of their families. If they are gone, the whole family will fall apart. I kowtow to you..."
The deputy mine manager knelt down and kowtowed without any explanation.
The hot-tempered Gu Zhonghua kicked the deputy mine manager away and yelled, "Are you done yet? Instead of kowtow, why not come over with a shovel and help? If you don't want to help, get the hell out of my way. If you delay the rescue progress again, I'll shoot you."
The deputy mine manager moved away silently.
Seeing Lan Tian and the political commissar coming together, she quickly wiped her tears and went to them and cried, "These workers are my brothers and sisters. I only regret that the person buried underneath is not me. You must rescue them safely. I kowtow to you..."
Lan Tian: “…”
Lan Tian pulled the deputy mine manager up and asked, "What's going on?"
The deputy mine manager was clueless. "I don't know either! The mining area here was originally planned with Mine Manager Gao before Engineer Zhou got into trouble. We only started after the engineers conducted a thorough survey and confirmed that there were no geological problems. Who would have thought..."
Lan Tian nodded and walked towards the collapsed area.
The political commissar patted the deputy mine manager on the shoulder. "Since you already know that the engineer and Mine Manager Gao are most likely enemies, then why do you still mine according to the mining area they set for you? Have you ever considered that the mining area they set was randomly chosen to conceal their own goals? Or that they set the mining area specifically to trick our workers into stepping on mines?"
The deputy mine manager's eyes trembled fiercely. "I just thought that the mining area proposed by the two of them before was fine."
The political commissar nodded meaningfully. "Okay, I get it. You can't be of much help here. Just go do what you need to do."

After Sheng Xijiang left, Zhou Sese also got up. She couldn't sleep. She felt that the coal collapse could not be an accident.
But if the coal mine collapse was inevitable, then the people behind it would be willing to sacrifice their lives to set up this scheme, definitely in order to gain some considerable benefits.
And what are the interests in the coal mines?
Of course it’s coal.
so--
Their conspiracy was simply to cover up the act of draining the coal mine. If she guessed correctly, they had already transported the coal out of the mine when Zhou Guosheng was imprisoned and Mine Director Gao was under surveillance.
It should be in transit now.
Zhou Sese quickly rode the compound's public rickshaw to the hotel, "Fu Chen, Fu Chen!"
Fu Chen, who was still asleep, woke up dazedly and saw a woman standing at the head of his bed. He was so scared that he ran away from sleep. After seeing clearly, he breathed a sigh of relief, "What do you want to do in the middle of the night?"
Zhou Sese asked, "Why is Sun Jianye, who came with you, not in the room?"
Fu Chen said angrily, "How should I know? He's not a three-year-old child. He has two legs on his body. He can go wherever he wants."
Zhou Sese was full of anxiety and had no intention of arguing with Fu Chen. "Lend me your car keys."
Fu Chen asked, "What do you want to do? You can't drive."
Zhou Sese stomped her feet on the floor anxiously. "Whether I can drive or not is none of your business. Lend me the car and I promise to return it to you intact. Hurry up and don't delay your business."
Fu Chen pointed to the next door and said, "Liang Mu has been driving the car all the time, and the car keys are with him."
Zhou Sese rolled her eyes and said, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
After saying that, he couldn't wait to walk next door. Fu Chen also quickly stood up, picked up his coat and put it on, and followed Zhou Sese's steps into Liang Mu's room.
Zhou Sese woke Liang Mu up and said, "Give me the car keys."
Liang Mu was so confused that he couldn't speak. Zhou Sese repeated, "I want the car keys of Fu Chen's car. Where did you put them?"
Liang Mu pointed at the pillow.
Zhou Sese lifted the pillow and saw the car keys. She picked up the car keys and couldn't wait to go downstairs.
Fu Chen also followed him out.
The moment Zhou Sese got into the driver's seat, Fu Chen got into the passenger seat.
"What are you doing up here?"
"Are you serious? This is my car, I can get in it whenever I want."
"Okay, then don't freak out later."
"Who are you looking down upon?"
Zhou Sese inserted the car key, started the engine, stepped on the accelerator, and drove away.
"What on earth are you going to do? Zhou Sese, I'm asking you a question, don't ignore me."
"Your good brother Sun Jianye is most likely an enemy spy."
“…You’re talking nonsense.”
"You'll know when you get there."
"No... Sun Jianye can't even read a few words, how can he be an enemy spy? He can't even write a few Chinese characters, and you expect him to speak a foreign language? You're overestimating him."
