Animal Detective

Chapter 327 Photos
Upon arriving in the county, people saw him off.

When they arrived in the city, they were seen off just like everyone else.

When they arrived in Juyang, the provincial capital, there were still people seeing them off.

When we arrived, we were seated in second class, but now we should at least be assigned a business class seat.

The train sped along.

"Sir, is there anything else you need?" The business class flight attendant came over again and asked softly with a smile.

The reason for using "again" is that she had already come seven times since getting on the bus.

And they came right here.

Shen Xin shook his head again, indicating that he didn't need it.

But the person didn't leave. Pointing to Tian Kui lying next to Shen Xin, he asked him if he needed anything.

For example, milk and beef jerky, they said they had them on the bus.

Upon hearing the word "beef strips," Tian Kui, who had been dozing off, suddenly perked up and opened his eyes.

At this point, Shen Xin understood.

So they came here specifically to take down Tiankui.

Shen Xin glanced at the girl and wondered if she liked cats and dogs.

Seeing Tian Kui staring at him expectantly, how could Shen Xin possibly refuse?

"How much have you eaten?"

Shen Xin smacked him on the head.

Along the way, Tiankui was fed in various ways.

Everyone who came to see them off made a special arrangement, buying a large amount of dog treats.

This time, when I returned from Machang Town, I didn't bring back local specialties, but rather Tiankui snacks.

The flight attendant left with a smile and quickly brought over a whole box of beef jerky.

Shen Xin tore one open and stuffed it into Tian Kui's mouth, then turned to ask He Wenyu across the aisle if he wanted one.

He was holding a laptop, editing his footage.

Just then, a bespectacled man diagonally opposite suddenly turned his head, pointed at Tian Kui, and said, "Excuse me, isn't this the police dog that was reported on TV?"

The man boarded the train at the previous two stops.

After getting on the bus, Shen Xin noticed that he kept turning his head to look at him.

Shen Xin had been on guard for a while, but now he realized that the person wasn't looking at him at all, but at Tian Kui.

And what does it mean on TV?

Shen Xin knew that after the landslide, local media had come to interview him and even took photos of Tiankui.

But since they are all local media, how wide can their reach be?

After hesitating for a moment, Shen Xin nodded and said it might be the one you mentioned.

The man's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "I knew it! The more I look at it, the more it looks like one. It really is! Officer, this police dog is so cool!"

As he spoke, he stood up, went to the corridor, squatted down, and asked Shen Xin if he could take a picture with Tian Kui.

Shen Xin nodded, both amused and exasperated.

As soon as he moved, all the remaining passengers in the carriage rushed over.

There are also flight attendants.

They lined up one by one, waiting to take a photo with Tiankui.

"What's going on?" Shen Xin asked He Wenyu in a low voice.

Tiankui is now famous!

He Wenyu retorted, "Didn't you watch the 7 o'clock news?"

This question was asked.

What era are we living in? Who still watches the 7 PM news?

A hint of embarrassment flashed across He Wenyu's face before he lowered his voice and said, "Last night at seven o'clock, the news did a follow-up report on the April 4.16 landslide accident, and it specifically reported on Tiankui."

"You may not watch the 7 o'clock news, but other people do, and it's even trending on social media. Don't you watch TV or use your phone?"

Shen Xin shook his head: "I really haven't looked at it."

My phone got wet and is now broken.

Of course I can't throw it away. I'm going back to find Cai Zhe and the others to help me keep the data safe.

Then, it seems that Shiyao County knew his phone had gotten wet and broken, so they specially arranged for someone to buy him a new phone as a reward.

But I really didn't have time to look at any trending topics or news.

Shen Xin sat back down and took out his phone to search for related news.

After reading it, Shen Xin understood why even his fellow passengers knew about Tian Kui just because he was on a bus.

There's no other reason than that he's handsome enough.

The 7 o'clock news is a national news program, so their reporting is relatively more formal, which is why they only provided two photos.

The report then described the events, mentioning that thanks to Tiankui, the location of the buried individuals was confirmed within the golden timeframe, enabling many to receive treatment and survive.

They also interviewed some rescue experts to reconstruct the situation at the scene.

The conclusion was that Tiankui's actions minimized the damage caused by the accident.

Just this story alone is enough to move people.

But what truly made Tiankui so popular wasn't just what it did, but its photos.

One of them is a front-facing photo of Tiankui after it has been cleaned.

Shen Xin remembered this photo; it seemed to have been taken by a local reporter from Juzhou.

Then the other one is crucial.

When Shen Xin first saw him, he had only one thought: He's so handsome.

In the darkness, with only the dim light of a flashlight in the background and rain falling, Tian Kui, covered in mud, held a red and blue flashing shoulder lamp in his mouth.

The photo has clearly been edited to perfectly capture Tiankui's dashing posture.

When you consider the story itself, the photograph is elevated to a higher level.

The red and blue flashing police lights identified Tian Kui as a person.

The shoulder lamp he held in his mouth was the hope for survival for those buried.

At the dangerous scene, he pierced through the darkness, running through the mud, bringing hope to those buried.

Most importantly, he's handsome.

The angle and lighting in this photo are absolutely perfect.

No wonder it immediately went viral and trended on social media.

The torrential rain already garnered significant attention, with several villages in Machang Town affected and the entire internet paying close attention. Coupled with the 7 PM news report, and given how striking the photo was, it's no surprise that Tian Kui became an internet sensation.

"its not right."

Shen Xin suddenly realized a question: Who took the photo?
When Tian Kui was searching everywhere with a shoulder lamp in his mouth, there were no reporters at the scene.

Or perhaps no reporters came to the scene that night.

Besides, everyone was busy saving lives; who had time to take a picture as a souvenir?

Shen Xin suddenly turned his head to look at He Wenyu and said, "Old He, don't tell me you took this photo?"

Tian Kui came to provide support with Miao Dingqiang and the others, but Shen Xin was busy recruiting people and didn't notice who had come.

He Wenyu might stay in town and then come over with them.

He Wenyu nodded: "Yes, I filmed it, and I even have a video."

He went to the scene with Miao Dingqiang and, knowing that Tian Kui was going to help with the rescue, brought his filming equipment.

Because that was his job, to film what kind of help Tian Kui provided to the local police after he was sent out.

Rescue scenes—what great material!

Shen Xin quickly leaned over to watch the video he had taken.

Sure enough, once he arrived at the scene, he picked up a camera and started filming.

He perfectly captured the scene of Tian Kui searching everywhere with a lantern in his mouth and shoulder.

Shen Xin suddenly slapped him and joked, "Well, you're doing all this work, and you've only been busy recording videos."

He Wenyu quickly said, "I helped later, but I didn't need to do anything when Tiankui was locating the location. Besides, I really felt it was necessary to record something so meaningful so that everyone would know what Tiankui did."

He hurriedly tried to explain, but Shen Xin waved his hand and said he was just joking.

There were many people at the time, and one more wouldn't have made a difference.

"By the way, could you please delete all my scenes?" Shen Xin said, pointing at the screen.

He Wenyu himself appeared quite a few times in the videos he filmed.

If my mom sees this horrific scene, she'll start nagging me again.

wrong.

Shen Xin gasped, guessing that his mother already knew.

Zeng Wenyi knew that she was going to Huaiyi on a business trip, and even asked her to bring her some Gastrodia elata so that her father could make medicinal wine with it.

How could she not know that something happened over there?

But they didn't bombard me with phone calls. Could it be that the news hasn't spread yet?

possible.

There are only reports about Tian Kui online, but no mention of herself, so it's normal that Zeng Wenyi doesn't know.

Thinking of this, Shen Xin sent a WeChat message to his older sister, Shen Shuang, asking her how Zeng Wenyi was feeling.

Knowing her mood will tell you whether Zeng Wenyi knows about this.

A few minutes later, Shen Shuang replied to the message.

You're dead.

It also included a clapping emoji.

Then I sent a video link.

Shen Xin cursed inwardly and turned on the video.

It was a short video link from Kuaishou. Shen Xin opened it, and everything went black.

In the darkness, a torrential downpour began, and then a tricycle sped along the village road from the foot of the mountain.

He stood in the truck bed, holding onto Dai Yaping's shoulders, urging him to drive faster.

Next to the tricycle, Wan was still running wildly.

Most importantly, behind the tricycle, a mudslide was chasing after it, relentlessly swallowing up house after house.

Shen Xin immediately recognized that the photos were taken by villagers who had evacuated to the mountains.

Then, because it was far away and dark, the photos weren't very clear.

But the tricycle's headlights, along with the occasional flashes of lightning, illuminated the sky and earth, occasionally allowing for clear photos of people.

Most importantly, this scene is right behind a mudslide; you can imagine how dangerous it is just by thinking about it.

At the end of the video, the tricycle rushed out of the mudslide's area of ​​activity. By then, it was very close and caught a glimpse of Shen Xin and Dai Yajun's faces.

Anyone familiar with Shen Xin would definitely be able to guess who it is.

This video went viral, mainly because it was linked to the recent rainstorm incident.

The comments below all say that Shen Xin and the other two were lucky to survive.

If this tricycle had gone even a fraction slower, it would have been a fatal accident.

[A tricycle manufacturer is throwing money at advertising; there's no better ad than this.]

Nature is truly terrifying.

In that instant, our ancestors probably used every connection they had underground.

Of course, our ancestors for eighteen generations down there are working themselves to the bone.

[They brought this on themselves. It was obvious they had already evacuated, but they waited until the mudslide hit before running away. Why didn't they do that sooner?]

Further down the line, there were even comments questioning the claims.

Not a lot.

If you can run, run earlier; if you run at the last minute, you'll cause trouble for others.

He deserved it; he only ran away when he knew it was dangerous.

Shen Xin frowned as he looked at it.

There were also people in the know.

What do you know? I'm from around here, I know. The driver was the village secretary, the one who organized the evacuation, and he was the last one to leave. Don't talk nonsense if you don't know.

Moreover, there was more than one person in the know.

[That's right, there was someone in that car. He went up the mountain and was the last to run out. The one standing there was a policeman. He rushed back to save people, which is why he fell behind. I have relatives from that village who saw it from the mountain.]

Upon seeing this, Shen Xin secretly thought he was doomed.

No wonder Shen Shuang said she was doomed.

At this moment, Shen Shuang sent another message.

Alright, Mom's been persuaded by Dad. It's good that you're back safe and sound; nothing else matters.

Then another one came quickly.

I want to punch you.
