CHAPTER 470: CHAPTER 427: THE TIGER IS HERE!! (BONUS 13/31)

"Alright! Leave it to me."

In Lin Yi’s view, the other person had received professional training in this area, and going down to rescue someone might be done in a very short time.

If it were him going down, other situations might occur.

For this reason, Lin Yi chose not to get off the car but to coordinate with the driver for the rescue!

However, things often don’t go smoothly. Just when the driver was about to open the door, a low roar of a tiger suddenly echoed in everyone’s ears.

In just a moment, almost everyone’s face turned pale.

Following the sound, everyone discovered shockingly that outside the small woods not far away, a full-grown tiger had appeared somehow.

Not only that, but this tiger seemed to have noticed the little boy on the ground. Its eyes were fixed on this side, as if it was about to charge forward at any moment.

"Oh my God! The tiger really came out!"

"Mom! How did the tiger come out at this time?"

"Ah! What should we do? This is bad! This is bad! The child is in danger!!"

Amidst the exclamations, the woman in the front row, the mother of the boy outside, also saw the tiger.

Unfortunately, her body was still stuck in the window and couldn’t move.

In an instant, she was even more desperate, crying and shouting to save her son.

Not only that, after shouting to save her son, the woman also began shouting at the tiger:

"Ah! Don’t come over! Go away! Don’t come over! Don’t eat my son!! Boo hoo hoo. Don’t come over!"

However, the shouting and yelling didn’t scare the tiger away; instead, it seemed to have angered it.

The tiger, which had been standing still, suddenly roared toward this direction.

Everyone was instantly frightened, their bodies shivering.

The driver, who initially wanted to open the door and get out, had already stopped his actions.

Looking at the driver’s forehead, there was already a layer of cold sweat; he never thought that a tiger would suddenly appear.

If there were no tiger, he would still have confidence in going down to save the person, but the moment he saw the tiger appear, he had completely scrapped that plan in his mind.

Retracting his hand that was already on the car door, he explained to everyone bitterly:

"No way! We definitely can’t open the door now.

The tiger is very fast, and it’s only dozens of meters away from us.

For a tiger, this distance can be covered in merely two or three seconds.

Once the door can’t be closed in time, not only will I lose my life, but everyone will be threatened."

In just an instant, the driver made his choice.

Between one person and the whole bus, he naturally knew to choose the latter.

This doesn’t mean the driver has any ill intentions; he must consider the greater outcome.

In such an irreversible situation, one must minimize risks and keep accidents to a minimum.

Moreover, the driver is not a Saint; he cannot sacrifice his life for the life of a stranger.

However, the woman clearly couldn’t accept this.

Upon hearing the driver’s words, she immediately became more agitated and her eyes filled with despair.

She even stopped pleading with everyone and began cursing them for standing by idly, cursing everyone on the bus for having no heart, and so on.

Although no one responded to the woman, everyone understood her feelings, yet the atmosphere at the scene became extremely tense.

Meanwhile, after its roar, the tiger didn’t charge directly but started moving quietly, cautiously approaching step by step.

Yet such a move made the trained driver profoundly understand that this was the sign of a tiger preparing to hunt.

When facing an unknown prey, the tiger usually doesn’t attack rashly and would observe first.

Once it confirms there is no danger, or when the prey turns its back, it will deliver a fatal strike.

This is an animal’s instinct.

Therefore, when people encounter ferocious animals like tigers in the wild, if they can avoid them it’s best; if they can’t, they mustn’t expose their back.

If you expose your back to them, it will be the moment they launch a fierce attack.

The tiger’s steps are slow, yet each step seems to walk on everyone’s hearts.

With each step, everyone’s heart trembles.

Parents tightly covered their children’s eyes, afraid they would see something terrifying.

Amidst this atmosphere, one second, two seconds... Time passed by the second.

However, the rescue team has not arrived yet, not even a glimpse of them.

Although anxious, everyone could understand.

Even a well-trained rescue team couldn’t possibly arrive at the scene within a minute.

From the child falling off the bus calling for rescue, up until now, only a little over a minute has passed.

"Ah! It’s bad! It’s bad! It’s coming! It’s coming."

"Mom! It’s walking towards the child!"

"What to do? What to do?"

"Everyone, think of a way! We can’t just watch the child being eaten by the tiger."

No one wanted to see this scene, but now there’s truly no way any of them could find a solution.

The tiger’s right in front of you; everyone knows if you go down to save the child, as you pick the child up, the tiger will certainly appear behind you.

The tiger was step by step approaching the little boy on the ground, emitting low growling sounds from its mouth, while its deep eyes remained fixed on the boy.

Furthermore, some sharp-eyed individuals already saw drool dripping continuously from the tiger’s mouth. Clearly, the tiger already saw the boy as its prey.

And just as everyone was in utter despair, the little boy suddenly moved.

The little boy, while crying, tried to crawl up to find his mother.

At that moment, everyone’s heart leaped, and they became excited.

If the little boy could run to the door now, the chances of picking him up into the car would be much greater.

However, the driver, upon seeing this, frowned because he knew if the child stood up and came this way, it would be as if he was offering his back to the tiger...
