Yang Qi didn't say anything.
He knew Jiang Kai was telling the truth.
Yang Qi was just a zookeeper. Even with the title of "Special Advisor to the Municipal Bureau," he was essentially a temporary contractor.
If he died, the county and the city would hold people accountable. There would be disciplinary actions and compensation where due, but that would be the extent of it.
But Professor Zhou, Senior Engineer Li, and the others were different.
They were top experts in their respective fields, leaders of national-level projects. Any one of them was a figure who could rally countless supporters in the academic world with a single call.
If any one of them was lost in Cangshan, no one—from the top down, from the municipal bureau to the county bureau to the forestry department—would be getting off easy.
Glancing at the closed conference room door, Yang Qi didn't feel it was unfair. Instead, a sense of absurd calm washed over him.
