True friend? Woman in China sends drone to check on girlfriend after she stops answering message for 4 hours and touches millions
- When a woman’s best friend suddenly stopped replying to messages she feared the worst and decided to send a drone to check on her
- The friend had recently been having heart problems which heightened the woman’s anxiety about her welfare
Mainland Chinese internet users have been touched by the friendship shared by two women in China after one of them used a drone to check on the other’s safety after she stopped responding to text messages.
The woman, who felt unwell, surnamed Wan, from Henan in central China, told news website Star Video that her friend sent her a message at around 7am on October 22 on WeChat asking her to go get a nucleic acid test.
However, Wan only noticed the message four hours later so her friend became highly concerned for her safety.
Wan had recently been having heart problems so the friend was checking in to make sure she was feeling ok.
Wan said during that period when she did not reply, her friend, whose name was not released, sent increasingly worried messages asking: “What’s wrong with you?”, “What are you doing?” and “I called you a couple of times. Why didn’t you answer my phone?”
The friend later asked her husband to fly a drone to the residential building where Wan lives to check on her.
