His parents claimed that he rescued his classmates for a brave act, but the other family members did not approve of it...
Zeng Bo's last article talks about the shooting location with the picture
In August, 31 days have passed since his son Deng Dexin fell into the water and disappeared. Deng Jian of Yibin and his wife Luo Kun still can't get out of the pain of losing their beloved son.
In the middle of the night of July 9, Deng Dexin, a 17-year-old second-year high school student at the Affiliated Middle School of Sichuan Conservatory of Music, went out alone and went to a barbecue restaurant to drink beer with his junior high school classmate Zeng Bo (a pseudonym). Then the two disappeared.
A few days later, the search and rescue team organized by Deng Jian salvaged Zeng Bo's body in the Jiangan waters of the Yangtze River, but there has been no news of Deng Dexin's whereabouts.
A surveillance video erected next to the South Gate Bridge in Yibin captured the last picture of the two teenagers in the Jinsha River: Deng Dexin once stopped briefly at the guardrail of the water trail and stood up, but soon plunged into the water and swam towards Zeng Bo. Then the two disappeared into the river...
Based on this judgment, Deng Jian and his wife: Deng Dexin fell into the water and disappeared in order to rescue classmate Zeng Bo, which is an act of bravery.
However, Zeng Bo's family members did not admit this statement, and instead believed that Deng Dexin was responsible for Zeng Bo's fall into the water.
■ Late night incident:
The 17-year-old son went out to meet classmates late at night, and the two teenagers lost contact...
17-year-old Deng Dexin is from Cuiping District, Yibin City.
At around 10 o'clock in the evening on July 9th, mother Luo Kun took her two younger brothers to bed. He heard that his son Deng Dexin gave his father a leave, saying that a classmate was in a bad mood and he was going to accompany the classmates to have a barbecue and drink beer.
Father Deng Jian told his son to go home early and told him not to cause trouble when drinking.
When he got up the next day, Luo Kun found that his son hadn't come back, so he called and said it was shut down.
The couple thought the child drank too much and went to a classmate's house, but didn't think much about it.
On the morning of July 10, Deng Jian and his wife repeatedly called their son Deng Dexin's cell phone, but the phone was always turned off.
They immediately asked their son’s classmates, friends and relatives, but there was no news of Deng Dexin.
In this way, Deng Dexin lost contact...
At around 4 pm on July 10, Luo Kun, through his son Deng Dexin's junior high school head teacher, asked for a phone call from the parents of Zeng Bo, his son's best friend in junior high school.
Luo Kun was taken aback by answering the phone, because Zeng Bo’s father, Mr. Zeng, said: The night before Zeng Bo also drank with a classmate and stayed up all night and the phone was turned off.
Through the identification of Zeng Bo's sister Zeng Yan, it was confirmed that it was Deng Dexin who had barbecue and beer with Zeng Bo that night.
■ Final image:
The son once threw himself in the middle of the river to the classmate
The two finally disappeared in the Jinsha River
Just as Deng Jian and Luo Kun were looking for their son Deng Dexin in desperation, Zeng Bo's mother and sister were also looking for them.
A relative found clues in Zeng Bo’s QQ space: At 3:25 am on the 10th, Zeng Bo released "QQ Talk". Judging from the distribution of photos and pictures, it was suspected to be filmed on the riverside...
With the help of the police, Luo Kun saw the images of Deng Dexin and Zeng Bo captured by a camera under the Nanmen Bridge in the western section of Yanjiang Road in Cuiping District: At about 3:21:10 on July 10, the two teenagers arrived at the South Gate Under the bridge, Deng Dexin was in front, and Zeng Bo, who was carrying a white pocket, was behind; while climbing the steps, Zeng Bo was unsteady and fell down, and then the two walked to the riverside together...
The Binjiang Park Administration Office of Cuiping District, Yibin City installed multiple cameras along the Jinsha River. A camera located opposite the Wanxi Building recorded the last images of the two teenagers-the video shows: July 10, 3:26:26 Seconds, bright lights and black spots appeared on the farthest river surface on the right side of the screen, and the side near the river bank drifted downstream.
During the period, water splashed several times beside the black spot, and it seemed that someone was struggling to paddle the water and try to get to the shore.
At about 3:27, the people who landed continued to move downstream and made a standing gesture. At this time, the luminous point (with fuzzy shadows) in the water floated far away.
At 3:27:07, the shoreliner plunged into the water again, and the figure disappeared from the screen, but the submerged light on the right continued to drift downstream.
At 3:27:14, the bright light disappeared from the end of the video screen; 5 seconds later, the person who entered the water again appeared on the surface of the water, swam downstream and tried to move to the shore to the left, and disappeared from the end of the screen after 12 seconds...
Luo Kun told reporters that after she copied the surveillance video to the computer and played it repeatedly, she found that when the docker stood up, she could see the white logo on the back of his clothes, and Deng Dexin was wearing that sportswear that day.
Based on this, Luo Kun believed that although he did not know why the two teenagers fell into the water, Deng Dexin entered the water again to rescue his classmate Zeng Bo (the bright light in the water was suspected to be emitted by Zeng Bo's mobile phone) after he had successfully rescued himself, and was eventually swallowed by the river.
Zeng Yan also believes that the shining figure in the water should be her brother Zeng Bo, and the light source may be his mobile phone.
■ Multi-party search and rescue:
One person's body was salvaged downstream
The other person has no news so far
After confirming that their son Deng Dexin was drowning, Deng Jian and Luo Kun hired motorboats to launch a search from the Nanxi Yangtze River section on July 11, and the Changhang Airlines public security agency issued an investigation report to police stations along the river to search and rescue two missing teenagers.
On the afternoon of July 14, a motorboat hired by Deng Jian found the body of a suspected Zeng Bo in the waters of the "big river" in Shuangjiang Village, Jiang'an County, Yangtze River.
After Zeng Bo's father identified it, it was confirmed that it was Zeng Bo.
Luo Kun told reporters that the family continued to search the Yangtze River for a total of half a month, but the body of Deng Dexin has not been found.
After watching the falling into the water video repeatedly, Luo Kun believed that Deng Dexin went into the water again to rescue his classmate Zeng Bo and disappeared, hoping that his behavior can be regarded as a brave act of righteousness.
■ Saving people "Rashomon"
One parent thinks it's a brave act
Family members of the other party do not approve
Zeng Bo's father did not approve of Deng Dexin's parents' "courage to do what is right".
He told reporters that Zeng Bo was drunk that night and could not stand steady, and that Deng Dexin took him away from his sister Zeng Yan, which was an important cause of falling into the water.
At about midnight on the 10th, Zeng Yan called her younger brother and learned that the two were having barbecue.
When she arrived, Zeng Bo had already drunk five or six bottles of beer.
Zeng Yan said that she had always asked her brother to go with her, but her brother called the waiter to serve wine many times, and Deng Dexin suggested to buy wine to the riverside to continue drinking.
At around 1:30 am on the 10th, two teenagers ran to the opposite side of the road to stop a taxi.
Zeng Yan chased her in the past and tried to stop her, but she didn't succeed.
After a taxi was stopped, Deng Dexin closed the door and asked the taxi to drive away. When she tried to catch up with her, the taxi had already disappeared into the night.
Regarding Zeng Yan’s statement, Deng Dexin’s parents believed that they were evading responsibility, and they said that they would not rule out the use of legal means to ask for an argument for his son’s behavior.
Zeng Bo’s father believes that although he does not recognize Deng Dexin as a "brave to do what is right," he feels that he has failed to educate his children well. The two children had a very good relationship, but he did not expect to come to this point.
