章 593: The Search and Rescue Team

The girls listened to Chen Siyang with heavy hearts.

Jiang Yao sighed. "Human selfishness can only be blamed. The authorities would have issued orders when it was time to divert the water out."

If that happened instead, the tragedy would not have happened.

In Jiang Yao's memory, her village was never a victim of a tragedy like this. When the water level rose in the river, the residents would have temporarily moved to places on higher elevation or sought refuge in mountain caves. Strong and healthy men would remain to monitor the river condition.

This was the Jiang Village she remembered, a united community of people. She was still a young girl back then when she was taken to the caves up in the mountains, protected by her two brothers of course. They spent the night there. Fortunately, the rain stopped the next morning and the river returned to its usual water level. It was a false alarm.
