From this, Cang Yue could only ask normal questions: "In which direction did the living people go after they climbed out?"
I saw one of the doll's arms suddenly raised and pointed in one direction.
Gu Mian looked along its arm, which happened to be the direction where Coco and Zhao Shuang left.
Cang Yue withdrew her gaze, and just when she was about to ask the next question, she suddenly saw the second arm of the doll also raised and pointed in another direction.
"What... is going on?" Xia Jianren looked at the direction pointed by his two arms in astonishment, "Only those few people walked in two directions?"
"Actually, I was very strange from the beginning," Cang Yue frowned as she looked at the puppet in front of her. "Theoretically, the people who were alive at the time must have been seriously injured. A normal person should be waiting for rescue on the spot."
The doll said that it was night when the accident occurred, and even at night there would be people passing by occasionally. The most normal choice was to seek help on the spot.
But this group of people dragged their injured bodies away from the place, and even split into two directions to leave.
Cang Yue thought about it and continued to ask: "Why do they want to leave here?"
"It was too dark and I couldn't see clearly. I only saw them leaving in two directions in a hurry."
"Are their injuries serious?"
"It was so dark that I couldn't see clearly. I only saw some people stumbling while walking, and some still running."
Cang Yue saw that the countdown on the doll's belly had reached 10 seconds, so she took the time to ask: "Did they say anything when they left?"
"Run quickly."
After spitting out these two words, the doll's neck tilted and its eyes lost their light.
It stopped moving.
Xia Jian and Cang Yue looked at each other, not quite understanding the meaning of these two words.
"Run quickly?"
From what I heard, it sounded like they were responsible for the bus overturning. After the accident, they ran away in a panic.
"It's really strange," Xia Jianren frowned, "I originally thought that Zhao Shuang might have been responsible for the overturn, but I didn't expect that some of the people alive also had guilty consciences?"
Just when Xia Jianren was confused, footsteps came from one of the directions pointed by the doll.
It's Coco and Zhao Shuang who are coming back.
Cang Yue quickly took back the puppet with quick eyes and hands, then raised her head to look in the direction where the footsteps came from.
Zhao Shuang was a little surprised when he saw that Gu Mian and the others were still here: "Have you always been here? Didn't you say that you would look around for traces?"
Cang Yue smiled at her: "We have already searched and found nothing special, but you guys, have you found anything?"
Coco shook her head, it seemed that they didn't find anything.
The puppet once pointed in the direction that Coco and Zhao Shuang were exploring just now. If the testimony is correct, they should be able to find something there. The reason why the two found nothing may be because they didn't go far enough.
Cang Yue stood up while thinking: "In this way, let's search carefully and see if we find anything."
As she spoke, she walked towards the direction where Coco and Zhao Shuang had just come. Time was running out. The police would come over at any time and find that the bus was missing. It would be bad if they were investigated by then.
Coco looked at Cang Yue and then at Gu Mian, as if she wanted to know what they had just discussed.
Cang Yue saw what Coco was thinking, so she pulled Zhao Shuang forward to make sure she couldn't hear the people behind her.
She held Zhao Shuang's hand: "You have been here a while ago and are quite familiar with it. Please remind me not to step into a trap."
Xia Jianren also followed. Coco looked at the three people's backs and asked Gu Mian in a low voice: "What did you just say?"
Gu Mian looked down at her: "Just now Cang Yue took out a special item called an unreliable witness, which can give unreliable testimony when the bus overturned."
He softly described to Coco the unreliable testimony given by the doll, and Coco frowned upon hearing it.
She repeated the last two words spoken by the doll: "Run?"
It seemed like he had committed something and was running away in a hurry.
She frowned: "Aside from running away after committing a crime, it also looks like..."
But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a voice from above.
"What are you doing!"
Gu Mian looked up and saw that the uncle who had handed out the flyers had arrived above at some point and was looking at the two of them with his head raised.
Cang Yue and others who had walked some distance were also attracted by the sound. They looked up, but they couldn't see clearly because they were surrounded by lush trees.
The uncle above also didn't see Cang Yue and the two who had walked into the dense forest. He stuck his head and shouted to the people below: "What are you two doing here? Don't work here, don't those few."
The missing person has not been found yet, and you are missing again."
Gu Mian felt that the uncle probably regarded them as spectators.
Cang Yue raised her head and explained: "We just came down to take a look, we didn't want to do anything else."
"Then be careful. The police will be here in a few minutes at this time. If they see you down there, they will definitely arrest you."
At this time, Cang Yue and the others were looking back at Gu Mian and Ke Ke.
After hearing what the flyer said, Coco glanced at Cang Yue and told them to leave first.
Otherwise, the police will arrive in a few minutes and arrest them together.
After receiving the signal, Cang Yue turned around and left with Zhao Shuang quietly.
"Huh?" At this time, the flyer realized something was wrong, "Jing Gu was talking to you. I remember that the car was still here last night. Why is it gone today?"
It was driven away by me.
Of course, Gu Mian didn't say anything out loud. He started to climb up so that when the police came later, he would not be arrested as a suspect.
Coco is very good at telling lies: "It was probably dragged away as evidence. The wilderness is not suitable for research and evidence collection."
The two climbed up quickly.
The flyer looked at the two people who climbed up: "Aren't there five of you here together? Where are the other three?"
As he spoke, he looked around and saw no other three people.
Coco said quickly: "The three of them went to the top of the mountain first, and we stayed here to take a look around."
"Oh." The uncle nodded and fanned himself with the flyer in his hand.
Gu Mian pulled Keke up and said to the uncle: "Then let's go after the three of them first."
After saying that, he said goodbye politely.
He was afraid that when the police came later and saw that the bus was gone, they would arrest all the suspects present first.
Coco followed Gu Mian and ran for several hundred meters. When she could no longer see the people behind her, she asked out of breath: "Sister Cang Yue and the others have gone down, what should we do?"
"Don't worry." Gu Mian stood on the roadside and looked at the slope at his feet. He climbed up just now because he was afraid that the man would tell the police that someone had entered the woods. It would be bad if the police found them.
He looked at the overgrown woods below and said, "I remember that one of the directions pointed by the puppet was this way. If we go back from here, we might find something on the road."
If you are lucky, you may also meet Cang Yue and the others.
Coco took out her mobile phone: "Then let me call them first and talk about it?"
Gu Mian nodded while observing where to place her feet: "It's up to you."
Just when Coco was about to call Cang Yue, she found that the other party had already called, and she immediately pressed the connect button.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Coco, where are you?" Cang Yue was standing in front of a ditch that was neither deep nor shallow, talking to Coco.
The trees around this ditch are relatively sparse, but there are still many weeds. Stepping on them makes your whole leg feel itchy.
Coco's voice came from the mobile phone: "We have arrived at the concrete road above and are preparing to go down from another place. Where are you now?"
Cang Yue looked at the ditch in front of her: "I can't tell you the specific location. It's the direction you and Zhao Shuang walked just now. Keep going forward. There is a big ditch here. We are in front of this ditch."
"Gu Mian and I plan to go down in the other direction pointed by the puppet and go back. Maybe we can meet you."
Cang Yue held her cell phone and nodded: "Okay, then you should be careful. We will walk slowly and wait for you."
After explaining the matter, the two ended the call, and Gu Mian found a suitable path to go down.
Cang Yue, who was hanging up the phone on the other side, was staring at the ditch in front of her.
The ditch lay in front of them, with no end in sight. The water in it had long since dried up, and the bottom was covered with weeds. There were also some thorns and other plants growing around the ditch, which were very irritating.
She knelt down and looked at the ditch, which was about two meters deep.
If the direction given by the puppet is correct, then those who survived should also have encountered this ditch. So did they cross the ditch, or went to the side along the ditch?
Just when Cang Yue was confused, Zhao Shuang on the side suddenly stood up and looked in the direction of the ditch: "Can we go that way?"
