Chapter 366 It Was Not an Accident
The cable car entrance to the exit was a cableway of about two hundred meters across a cliff, beneath
which was a dense forest and steep cliff walls. Just looking down from above, even from a small
perspective, could unconsciously make one’s legs feel weak.
Due to a problem with the cable car system, all the cars in the middle. had stopped, totaling about
twenty to thirty, all suspended on the cable. Because of the confined space, the people in the cable
cars were almost on the verge of a breakdown, screaming.
Even through the cable car glass, one could clearly feel the wails and cries of fear from those who were
suddenly suspended in mid-air.
The entrance was surrounded by quite a few tourists, all blaming or urging the staff to quickly check
why the cable car had problems, and then to rescue as soon as possible. Some even started to record
with their mobile phones, conveniently fabricating their own comments, either defaming or kicking
someone when they were down.
Emma said that William and Hermosa were also on the cable car. I was anxious and wanted to ask the
staff about the specific situation, but I hadn’t spoken to the staff yet.
Suddenly, a scream echoed through the crowd, someone almost shouted in terror, “How did the door of
the cable car get opened?”
I broke out in a cold sweat. When I looked again, I saw that the door of a cable car, which was stopped
in the middle of the ropeway, had been opened. Then, I saw a figure, whose gender was unclear,
suddenly fall from the cable car.
Suddenly, the entire crowd exploded, with people exclaiming in shock

and fear, instantly turning into a chaotic mess.
Some people’s relatives were still on the cable car under the ropeway. Seeing this scene, they directly
broke down and started cursing at the staff who were trying to calm the tourists. Some even started
begging the staff to save them towards the end.
Looking at the situation, I almost didn’t think much, I called the police immediately, and then I called
Walter. Fortunately, the call went through, it was almost immediately answered, and Walter’s deep
voice came through, “Tabatha, where are you?”
I said, “The cable car entrance is here, Walter. Someone just fell down a moment ago. Big Brother and
Hermosa are still on the cable car, they…”
Before she could finish speaking, Walter’s voice came from the other end of the phone, “Don’t worry,
they’ll be fine. The cable car will be fixed soon. Wait for them at the entrance. Once you get them,
leave the scenic area immediately.”
I paused, detecting something off in his words, and couldn’t help but ask, “What happened?”
There was a pause from him on the other end of the phone, “There’s been an accident in the bungee
jumping area of the scenic spot, the rope broke, and the jumper died on the spot. Just now, sister-in-
law called from the performance area, saying that the animals have gone mad and started hurting
people. There’s been a fatality on your end as well. So, no matter what situation you encounter, as
soon as you meet up with big brother and Hermosa, you must leave immediately. I’ve arranged for
someone to pick you up.
I nodded, but quickly realized something was wrong, and said, “This scenic spot is…”

“Belonging to the Hinton family.” He spoke, his voice calm, but I could hear, it was very heavy.
So many incidents happened within one day, all in the same scenic area. Clearly, it was not any
accident or coincidence, someone did it on purpose.
I couldn’t understand the reason, but I understood Walter’s purpose for wanting me to leave quickly
with William and Hermosa. Into the phone, I said, “Okay, I understand.”
After hanging up the phone, a sound came to my cars. The cable car had been restored, and the
tourists who had originally been stuck in the cable car had all arrived in the safe area one after
another.
Because someone had just fallen from the cable car, their fate unknown, the people on the cable car Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
had safely landed. Some were so scared that their legs gave out and they couldn’t walk, some were
crying and screaming in fear, and some were angry, lashing out at the staff as soon as they landed.
Fortunately, the scenic area arranged security immediately. The person in charge of the scenic area
apologized to the tourists and provided compensation in other aspects, either materially or financially,
and also temporarily suspended the operation of the scenic area.
The management of the scenic area would handle the follow-up. I waited for William and Hermosa at
the exit, thankfully they were both okay.
Seeing the two of them, I breathed a sigh of relief. After all, Hermosa was just a child, she probably
cried for a while on the cable car. After William carried her down, she clung to him and wouldn’t let go.
Seeing me, William was somewhat surprised, saying, “Tabatha, what are you doing here?”
