Several people were stunned in the dilapidated hut, carefully studying the various totems on the wall, and finally everyone reached a unified opinion.
Lu Weiwei took out her mobile phone, took pictures of all this, and couldn't help but said: "It seems that Zhou Xiaotong was invited here for another purpose."
"And the purpose is quite mysterious, so much so that Zhou Xiaotong wants to use it to find a job in Jiangnan City to get through."
"However, Zhou Xiaotong has planned everything from the beginning, or in other words, the person who sent him the invitation letter has already determined the specific route for her."
"Next, Zhou Xiaotong needs to find this dense forest hut according to the inviter's guidance without being discovered."
"Otherwise Zhou Xiaotong wouldn't have come to this deep forest at night."
"That's right." As soon as Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Gu Chen also answered:
"Especially the totems on this wall, they look ordinary on the surface, but if you combine them with the specific location of the address here, you can quickly find them."
"What is clearly painted here is a map and a code word for guidance. I think the inviter did not tell Zhou Xiaotong the specific location. Instead, he needed Zhou Xiaotong to find the next location by himself according to the totem guidance on the wall."
"Such a secretive action shows that the other party does not completely trust Zhou Xiaotong, but is always on guard."
"Gu Chen." As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, Officer Wang said with a heavy face: "I have a bad feeling."
"You said that Zhou Xiaotong has never been to Jiangnan City, but once he arrived in Jiangnan City, he dared to come to this hidden forest alone."
"It can be seen that this Zhou Xiaotong is very courageous. Moreover, the other party seems to be investigating Zhou Xiaotong and does not reveal too many clues."
"I just want Zhou Xiaotong to find the destination by himself, and I can guarantee that the person who sent the invitation letter will definitely meet Zhou Xiaotong at a certain place."
"Old Wang, tell me, what does this person want to do when he comes to Zhou Xiaotong?" Lu Weiwei was very troubled by this, mainly because the other party's behavior was too weird.
But Officer Wang shook his head and sighed: "I wish I knew better, so I don't have to mess around like this."
"If you ask me, don't think about so many problems now. Find someone first and then talk about it."
"This Zhou Xiaotong, didn't he go to the valley according to the guidance of the map?"
"I think there should be other traces set up somewhere in the valley to guide Zhou Xiaotong to the designated place."
"Or maybe that valley is the place where the mysterious inviter invited Zhou Xiaotong to come for an appointment."
"Why does it feel so mysterious? It's so scary." Lu Weiwei has never seen this way of inviting people to come to an appointment.
But the more bizarre the situation, the more curious Lu Weiwei became.
Gu Chen looked down at the time and quickly reminded him: "Time waits for no one, we must set off immediately."
"Okay." Officer Wang took the strong flashlight in his hand and shined it around for a few times before saying:
"Anyway, there are no other clues in this room, and it still stinks. It's really hard to stay here."
"Now we'd better follow the direction guidance and go to the next location to see if we can find some new discoveries."
They just did what they said. The few people only stayed in the house for a short time and then immediately started to move cautiously towards the next location.
Everyone estimated that Zhou Xiaotong had seen the totem paintings on the wall and understood the other party's intentions.
And Zhou Xiaotong left the hotel late at night, so he should have come out of the hut at night.
So Gu Chen and others took strong flashlights and continued searching in the mountains and forests.
…
…
Rustling.
Not knowing how far ahead he walked, Gu Chen once again tore off a branch from the roadside and tied the branch to a tree trunk as a mark of his coming.
This will help Gu Chen return the same way without getting lost.
"Gu Chen." Officer Wang stepped back and leaned towards Gu Chen, also saying nervously:
"The woods here are getting denser and denser. You could still see the moonlight before, but look here, it's pitch black and you can't see anything."
"Yes." Lu Weiwei, who had just noticed the abnormality, slowly approached Gu Chen and said:
"The woods here feel airtight, and apart from our few bright flashlights, there is no light source around. It feels quite dangerous."
"However, we still have to continue looking for traces of Zhou Xiaotong." Gu Chen also knew very well that once he lost his way back while searching in this strange dense forest, he might get lost in the jungle.
Officer Wang looked around with a strong flashlight and couldn't help but said: "Gu Chen, it seems that the terrain here is very low. We should have reached the direction pointed by the mark, which is the valley."
"But if we misunderstand the totems on the wall, then we may go down a lot of wrong paths."
"So..." Gu Chen glanced at Officer Wang.
"So, we have to stop the search immediately and return to the original route, otherwise everyone will be trapped here." Officer Wang said.
"Aren't there signs along the way? What are you, Old Wang, afraid of?" Lu Weiwei couldn't help but ridicule when she saw Officer Wang starting to back down.
Officer Wang said "tsk" and then said: "That's not what I meant. What I meant is that there are no clues here at all. We may be looking in the wrong direction."
"Then take a rest and see if there is anything unusual around you." Gu Chen understood Officer Wang's concerns.
As an old comrade, Officer Wang did not agree to take such a risk and go so deep into the jungle.
But Gu Chen also knew that if he didn't follow the totem's guidance and look for traces of Zhou Xiaotong, he might never find Zhou Xiaotong.
I thought since everyone is already here, why not check it carefully?
If you really haven't found anything, it's not too late to leave.
So at Gu Chen's suggestion, Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei went directly to a big tree, and they squatted down against the big tree.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This walk lasted for an hour, traveling in various ways deep in the woods, and it was a bit difficult to find traces.
In addition, searching the mountains at night is also a test of physical strength.
Officer Wang took out the police water bottle and took a few sips before looking in Gu Chen's direction again.
At this time, Gu Chen was still standing in a weed, looking around firmly.
Soon, Gu Chen closed his eyes, and the road he had just walked turned into a 3D map, which quickly emerged in his mind.
Gu Chen unleashed his masterful imagination and made the entire terrain map come alive.
In his own mind, he instantly formed a rough outline of the surrounding geographical location.
Gu Chen now had a God's perspective, and his temporary footing from the jungle hut to here was connected by a winding red line.
Gu Chen used the power of his mind to raise the entire terrain map to a higher God's perspective.
At this moment, Gu Chen discovered that the current location of everyone happened to be at the bottom of the valley.
If you go further, you have to go up the hillside.
"Is this where it is?" Gu Chen snapped his fingers and quickly returned to reality from the simulated space in the master's imagination.
Turning to look behind him, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang were drinking water and communicating with each other.
Gu Chen looked around again. Not far away, there was a relatively wide open space.
There are fewer trees here, but they are still overgrown with weeds.
Gu Chen picked up the bright flashlight and walked slowly toward the area again.
"Shashasha..."
The sound of the body rubbing against the weeds kept ringing around.
Every time Gu Chen took a step, there would be a "rustling" movement around him.
But when Gu Chen came to the center of the open space, he suddenly discovered that the weeds here seemed to have been stepped on before.
Gu Chen followed the direction of the fallen weeds and continued walking forward. He soon discovered that not far from the weeds, under a big tree, under the illumination of a strong flashlight, there seemed to be a reflective object.
.
Gu Chen didn't care too much and continued walking forward. Only then did he realize that there was an empty mineral water bottle under the big tree?
So Gu Chen subconsciously observed the surrounding situation first. After confirming that there was no one around, he put on white gloves, picked up the empty mineral water bottle on the ground, held it in his hand and observed it.
Looking at the inside of the empty mineral water bottle, it was already filled with water droplets. I concluded that this empty mineral water bottle should have been discarded here a few days ago.
"Could it be the mineral water bottle that Zhou Xiaotong drank from?" Gu Chen frowned, unable to judge the specific situation.
So he put the mineral water bottle back in its place and took out his cell phone to take pictures.
Later, Gu Chen took out a transparent evidence bag, put the mineral water bottle in it, and wrote the serial number data in the corner of the transparent evidence bag.
Gu Chen seemed to have discovered something under the big tree. Lu Weiwei stood up directly and walked slowly following the path Gu Chen had just walked.
When Officer Wang saw this, he followed closely.
"Junior Brother Gu." Lu Weiwei came behind Gu Chen.
Gu Chen turned around and handed the empty mineral water bottle to Lu Weiwei: "Take it."
"What is this? Where did it come from?" Looking at the empty mineral water bottle, Lu Weiwei frowned and asked alertly.
"I found it under this big tree." Gu Chen sighed and told the truth.
"Did Zhou Xiaotong throw this away?" Officer Wang came to Lu Weiwei's side, took the transparent evidence collection bag from Lu Weiwei's hand, and said casually.
Gu Chen nodded silently: "At present, it is possible."
"Judging from the condition of the mineral water bottle, it should have been discarded here a few days ago, but I didn't find any other items around it."
"And Zhou Xiaotong disappeared in this area a few days ago, so together, these may be Zhou Xiaotong's items."
"How could this girl go so far?" Lu Weiwei hesitated and asked Gu Chen:
"Junior Brother Gu, is this possible? This was left by the mysterious person who sent the invitation letter to Zhou Xiaotong?"
"Maybe." Gu Chen couldn't make a judgment now, so he could only say casually:
"But for the specific situation, once we take this empty mineral water bottle back to the Technical Section of the Municipal Bureau and ask Gao Chuanfeng to help test it, I think we will be able to get to the bottom of it."
"That's all we can do for now." Officer Wang took a deep breath, looked around, and couldn't help but remind him:
"Gu Chen, it seems like it's starting to get foggy in this mountain forest."
"Oh my god." Lu Weiwei, who discovered the problem, also screamed:
"It's so good that I didn't notice it. Junior Brother Gu, look quickly. When you shined the flashlight around you just now, you can still see quite far away."
"But now, there seems to be more and more fog around, gathering here."
"It won't be easy if we get lost in the jungle. It might be more troublesome to find the way back."
The sudden appearance of mist in the forest caught the three of them unexpectedly.
If we say that before, Gu Chen used plant stems and vines to mark the way he came.
So now the surroundings are starting to become blurry, and it may take more time to find the way home.
And if you are not careful, you may get lost in the fog.
When the more experienced police officer Wang saw this, he quickly reminded Gu Chen: "Gu Chen, we can't search any longer."
"The most important thing now is to leave this place quickly. We can find it again after daybreak. We must retreat now."
"Yes, Junior Brother Gu, please evacuate quickly." Lu Weiwei also felt that something was wrong, and reminded her anxiously.
Gu Chen picked up the strong flashlight and, unwilling to do so, shined it twice into the dense forest ahead and said:
"I feel that Zhou Xiaotong should be nearby. If this mineral water bottle belongs to Zhou Xiaotong, then it means that she has been here before."
"Ouch!" Seeing that Gu Chen was still hesitating, Officer Wang reminded him, "Gu Chen, regardless of whether Zhou Xiaotong has been here before or not, just listen to my advice and leave immediately."
"Any later, we may all be surrounded by fog. If we want to go out by then, it may be harder than climbing to the sky."
"If we forcefully walk, it may take a lot of time. I think it may take a long time to actually leave this dense forest, maybe until tomorrow morning."
"Let's go." As soon as Officer Wang finished speaking, Lu Weiwei grabbed Gu Chen and started to drag Gu Chen in the previous direction.
The three of them began to reach a tacit understanding and quickly evacuated in the direction they came from.
Gu Chen walked at the end of the three of them, looking back three times at a time.
In the dark forest, Gu Chen seemed to see a woman's figure appearing in the mist.
But when Gu Chen stood there, rubbed his eyes, and looked again, the figure in the mist seemed to have disappeared again.
Gu Chen froze on the spot, and his surrounding vision began to blur.
"Junior Brother Gu." Just when Gu Chen was lost in thought, Lu Weiwei once again pulled Gu Chen back to consciousness:
"What's wrong with you? Leave quickly."
"Okay." Gu Chen took a deep breath, wiped his confused eyes with his left hand, and then continued to follow Lu Weiwei, moving quickly in the direction he came from.
The fog was much bigger than everyone imagined, and within a short time, Gu Chen and the others disappeared into the white fog.
