Chapter 253: Avalanche Cause

~5 min read 861 words

This mountain wasn't particularly high, so rather than an avalanche, it was more like all the accumulated snow up top had fallen down and blocked the road.

Guo Yingbai made a phone call and kicked the sofa. "There are idiots up there causing trouble!"

Up above was a small ice and snow amusement park that combined skiing, ice lanterns, igloos, dog sledding, and other winter entertainment facilities all in one.

To set up so many things, the accumulated snow here alone naturally wasn't enough, so the owner transported snow, ice blocks, and other materials up the mountain from outside. To ensure service quality, the snow in each area was replaced every half day, guaranteeing every guest the best possible experience. No matter how expensive it was, people were willing to come relax, drawn by that kind of service attitude!

Today the transport vehicles happened to run into tourists causing trouble. Some rebellious teenagers who had seen the trucks dumping accumulated snow into the warehouse tipped over all the snow from several trucks, and the ones unlucky enough to bear the brunt were the merchants operating halfway up the mountain.

A massive amount of snow rolled down and buried the road.

Whether going up or down, no one could move—they had to wait for workers to clear the snow. It was a major holiday, and many people had taken time off. Their road was long, so even if all the service staff were added together, it might take a whole day to clear. Besides, it was still snowing from the sky right now, so a single day probably wouldn't be enough to finish!

If too many people ended up stranded here, this place's reputation would be ruined!

"This is basically a man-made disaster!"

Lin Junzhi was filled with righteous indignation!

"This kind of kid should be sent in for some discipline!"

Jing Ming also nodded. Those who came to play nearby basically all had some assets or status, yet there were still kids like this, which showed the other party or their family lacked a proper dose of reality. In their circles, without a sufficiently good status or sufficiently powerful backing, you had to learn to rein in your emotions and be a normal person who didn't cause trouble.

Lin Junzhi's phone vibrated. She took it out, about to vent to her sister-in-law about what happened today, but her expression grew darker and darker, and she fell into a state of furious rage.

"He knows he was wrong?"

"What do you mean it wasn't intentional?"

"Didn't he know beforehand what consequences that much snow could cause?"

"It's just a little money? What a joke—then you pay for it yourself!"

"I have no conscience? What conscience do I need? What he did—what do you even call that? What if someone had been buried? He was killing people! And you're actually enabling him!"

The other side hung up the phone, and Lin Junzhi was still furious! She picked up the flower petals that had fallen on the ground and hurled them around every which way.

She was truly angry!

From her sister-in-law's remarks, she couldn't detect any reverence for life. Everything she said implied that the staff had provoked the child, that it was something everyone did together, and that the child had been instigated by others!

But her nephew wasn't a child anymore?!

A teenager already in eighth grade surely had basic safety awareness, right? The adults didn't take it seriously and even helped make excuses for the child!

Was the point who instigated him? Wasn't the point his own actions? Anyone with a normally functioning brain knew you couldn't do something like this! Dealing with the instigator and dealing with the child weren't mutually exclusive! But her sister-in-law only wanted to blame everyone else, cleaning up her son's mess, not thinking her son had done anything wrong at all—this was simply enabling the child to commit crimes!

Lin Junzhi had only been abroad for a few years; she hadn't expected the family to turn out like this!

After hurling the flower petals and cooling down a little, Lin Junzhi couldn't go against her own conscience and made a phone call to get someone to clean up the mess.

Su Yu hadn't expected to witness this scene.

【Wulongcha, I think, based on how things are going, her money probably wasn't lost when she opened her studio—it was probably drained dry because of her unlucky nephew.】

Wulongcha felt the same way. 【They say that among humans, if there are people like Lin Junzhi who help clean up after others, those people will never reflect on themselves, because they have someone to rely on. They'll keep making mistakes until they drag the person cleaning up after them to their death!】

【Sometimes the most terrifying thing isn't cold indifference from family, but corrupted family bonds. Because of the feelings from the past, you get locked in a cage of the present.】

【Yes, it's the same with your maternal grandparents' side. Your grandfather was so angry he passed out.】

【Ah? How did Grandpa pass out?】
