Seeing that everyone's physical strength was vulnerable in front of Xu Youzhi, Gu Chen also began to worry about the next trip.
The main reason is that I am worried about Xu Youzhi. If this character is used well, he will be everyone's right-hand man.
But if he is a member of that group of people as Gu Chen guessed, then bringing him to Hu Peng must be a major threat.
Although Gu Chen thought that Xu Youzhi's previous statements had a certain degree of credibility, they could also be Xu Youzhi's one-sided words.
If Xu Youzhi was just a favor to Hu Peng who often gave him some cartons, then there was no need to destroy the surveillance camera on his behalf.
Or, to put it another way, if Xu Youzhi wanted to kill Hu Peng, but didn't want others to know that Hu Peng had been to Hushan Town.
Then the motivation to damage monitoring would be very dangerous.
As for why Hu Peng's vehicle was parked at Xu Youzhi's scrap collection station, Gu Chen guessed that this may be true as he said before, and it was a temporary stop.
But before Xu Youzhi had time to take action, Hu Peng had already taken his luggage and walked quickly towards the mountain.
This may be the reason why Xu Youzhi did not keep up with Hu Peng's pace, and perhaps also the reason why Xu Youzhi did not have time to kill Hu Peng.
Thinking of this, Gu Chen felt a wave of fear, thinking that this was just a guess, and if it turned out to be true, the consequences would be disastrous.
"Senior Brother Wang, Senior Sister Lu, can you do it?" Seeing that Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei were still trying to keep up with him, Gu Chen also asked casually.
Officer Wang said helplessly: "The altitude has increased too quickly, and the slope is also steep. It's a bit troublesome."
"What about Senior Sister Lu?" Upon hearing this, Gu Chen immediately looked at Lu Weiwei again.
Lu Weiwei sighed softly and shook her head helplessly: "I'm not that fast either."
"How about this." Seeing that time was running out, Gu Chen quickly explained to Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei:
"Let's see, Senior Sister Lu, Senior Brother Wang, and Director Zhang, you form the middle formation, which is the connection point between the vanguard and the follow-up team."
"In this way, we will be divided into three teams. Xu Youzhi and I will go to the first team."
"Is this okay?" Seeing that Gu Chen was going to be alone with Xu Youzhi, Lu Weiwei, who was a little wary of Xu Youzhi, suddenly became worried.
She had also seen a long time ago that Gu Chen seemed a little uneasy about Xu Youzhi.
But Gu Chen also knew very well that only by finding Hu Peng as soon as possible could many situations be clarified.
So Gu Chen nodded decisively and confirmed: "Yes, I want to stay with Xu Youzhi in the vanguard group and discover Hu Peng's whereabouts as quickly as possible."
"But don't worry, I will mark it along the way. You can just follow the mark when the time comes."
"Okay." Officer Wang saw that Gu Chen said this, and felt that this was the best way at the moment.
After all, this white-haired Xu Youzhi looks like a young man in his early twenties when climbing mountains.
And the only one who can keep up with his pace is Gu Chen.
Considering Gu Chen's comprehensive strength, it should be easy to control Xu Youzhi, so he agreed:
"Gu Chen, please be careful and don't keep too far away from us."
"Understood." Gu Chen nodded and confirmed, then climbed directly in the direction of Xu Youzhi.
At this moment, Xu Youzhi was still sitting on a rock and drinking mineral water.
Seeing a few dexterous movements by Gu Chen, he quickly climbed to the position opposite him.
Xu Youzhi admired Gu Chen's climbing ability quite a lot and couldn't help but marveled:
"Young man, are you good at climbing?"
"It's not bad." Faced with Xu Youzhi's compliment, Gu Chen didn't take it to heart, but continued to urge:
"Now we have changed our plan and divided the previous two groups into three groups now."
"You and I will form the first group and continue to walk in front of the team."
"The two of us?" Hearing Gu Chen's words, Xu Youzhi was stunned for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses.
So he nodded and agreed: "Okay, let's go first. It will take some time to wait for them anyway."
"Let's go now." As soon as Xu Youzhi finished speaking, Gu Chen stood up and continued climbing towards the top of the mountain road.
Xu Youzhi shook his head and followed closely.
However, the situation is very different now. Gu Chen, who had been held back by his teammates before, thus slowing down his climbing rhythm, finally got rid of the burden and started climbing with all his strength.
After a while, he and Xu Youzhi distanced themselves.
Seeing that Xu Youzhi was already out of breath despite his age, Gu Chen simply found a gentle rock and sat there to continue waiting for him.
A minute later, Xu Youzhi came to Gu Chen panting, and lay weakly on a rock. He also sighed heavily and said:
"Young man, do you have good physical strength?"
"It's okay." Climbing is really like child's play to Gu Chen.
Of course, Gu Chen would not tell Xu Youzhi that during his studies at the police academy, he was the best climber in the school. He won many awards and presented performances to international colleagues.
As for climbing such a mountain range, Gu Chen actually looked down upon it at all.
Not to mention if the slope is 70 degrees steep, even if it is 90 degrees vertical, Gu Chen can easily climb it as long as there is a place to stand.
"Okay." With a heavy breath, Xu Youzhi took out the mineral water and drank the first bottle of mineral water in one gulp.
Then he put the empty mineral water bottle in his backpack, and then breathed heavily:
"On this first day, we have to continuously climb steep slopes at high altitudes, so it will consume a lot of energy."
"So, you may need to drink 2L of water on the first day, but you still have to save some water."
"Understood." Seeing that Xu Youzhi looked very experienced and was his guide, Gu Chen could only nod silently and agreed.
Xu Youzhi glanced at his watch subconsciously, and then said: "Let's set off. We can't rest here for too long. If we sit here and rest for too long, this feeling of fatigue will quickly come to mind."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "When the time comes, you won't want to move anymore, you have to sprint towards the top of the mountain with all your strength."
"It's up to you." Gu Chen was quite confident in his physical strength.
Especially since he also has the energy drink rewards provided by the system. These things are enough to support Gu Chen's consumption of very little energy during the climb.
Seeing Gu Chen take action, Xu Youzhi could only follow Gu Chen again.
The two of them just walked and climbed along the steep mountain road. After climbing for several hours, they finally reached a gentle area.
At this moment, Gu Chen clearly discovered that there were some used paper towel remnants in this flat open space.
Gu Chen walked over subconsciously, squatted down, and gently picked up the tissue paper scraps on the ground with his white-gloved hands. After taking pictures to collect evidence, he quickly put them into a transparent evidence collection bag.
And all this was seen by Xu Youzhi. Xu Youzhi also walked to Gu Chen and asked him in a low voice:
"Could this garbage be left behind by Hu Peng?"
After hearing Xu Youzhi's words, Gu Chen glanced at him and said casually:
"Didn't you say that there are very few travelers passing through this route? So, can I understand that Hu Peng is the only one crossing this mountain?"
"Okay." Looking at Gu Chen, Xu Youzhi nodded slightly.
Gu Chen snapped his fingers and said, "Then can I assume that this tissue was used by Hu Peng?"
"I understand." Seeing Gu Chen's straightforward words, Xu Youzhi nodded slightly and sighed:
"If this is the case, then judging from the current shape of the tissue, he must have stayed here, or rested for a long time."
"You're right." Seeing that Xu Youzhi had explained clearly, Gu Chen nodded slightly and continued:
"Judging from the current situation, Hu Peng has a lot of things with him. He should slow down. Maybe he has camped here."
"Then we can't camp here, we have to set off immediately." Faced with Xu Youzhi's words, Gu Chen reminded him directly.
Seeing that Gu Chen seemed different from other policemen, Xu Youzhi nodded slightly, and approached Gu Chen and said, "So, we have to leave immediately?"
"Let's go." As soon as Xu Youzhi finished speaking, Gu Chen got up and walked towards the forest.
Xu Youzhi behind him couldn't help but shake his head, feeling that when he was climbing the steep slope just now, he was showing off his abilities in front of Gu Chen's team from time to time.
At first, I thought it was because Gu Chen couldn't keep up physically.
But now it seems that this is not the case at all. Gu Chen was waiting for his teammates, so he wasted a lot of time.
Nowadays, Gu Chen is walking like flying, and Xu Youzhi feels like he can't keep up.
Because he was following Gu Chen's rhythm, Xu Youzhi seemed to be unable to do what he wanted.
Finally at an open space, Xu Youzhi was so tired that he held on to the big tree nearby and reminded him: "Officer Gu, why don't you... take a rest here, I'm going to die soon."
Hearing what Xu Youzhi said behind him, Gu Chen decisively stopped running and turned around directly to come to Xu Youzhi.
Xu Youzhi subconsciously took a step back and continued to repeat his appeal:
"Shall we take a break?"
"Okay." As soon as Xu Youzhi finished speaking, Gu Chen readily agreed.
Afterwards, Xu Youzhi sat under a big tree again and began to drink his own mineral water greedily.
At the same time, Gu Chen was not idle. He directly took out a dozen red threads and started following everyone's previous agreement.
Gu Chen used a police dagger to draw an arrow on the branch tied with a red rope.
After taking a step back and seeing that the view was excellent, Gu Chen sat on one side with satisfaction.
At this time, Gu Chen once again found that he seemed to have stepped on a hard object under his feet.
Gu Chen looked up and found some peanut shells.
"It seems that Hu Peng has eaten peanuts here?" Gu Chen raised his head and looked around, feeling that the Hu Peng he wanted to track seemed to be getting closer and closer to him.
But at this time, the more Gu Chen needs to stay calm.
His eyes quickly glanced at Xu Youzhi, who was taking off his shoes and rubbing his feet with both hands.
Gu Chen lowered his head to look at his watch, took out his mobile phone, took pictures of some peanut shells along the way, and put them into a transparent evidence bag.
All this was seen by Xu Youzhi again. Xu Youzhi's eyes became more complicated and he hurriedly asked:
"It's a peanut shell, right?"
"That's right." Gu Chen nodded.
"Those should have been thrown away by Hu Peng. Those peanuts were given to Hu Peng by me." Xu Youzhi continued, with complex emotions in his eyes.
When Gu Chen heard this, he also raised his eyebrows: "What did you say? Are you giving these snacks to Hu Peng?"
"Yes." Xu Youzhi nodded slightly and explained:
"Before Hu Peng left, he asked me to help him purchase supplies. I just thought about it and agreed."
"Later, based on Hu Peng's preference, I brought him some saltwater peanuts. Unexpectedly, he really liked eating them."
Putting his camping bag on the ground, Xu Youzhi walked directly to Gu Chen and continued to explain:
"So, I feel that the evidence you just collected seems to be quite useful. I feel that Hu Peng is not far away."
"Because he is a slow-moving person. If it is urgent, then he will have a sense of urgency."
"So, he usually takes a long time?" Gu Chen said.
"Well, it's quite confusing anyway, and I have to put off doing things."
Taking a deep breath, Xu Youzhi continued to explain: "That's what I think. According to Hu Peng's character, he should be very cautious along the way."
"If no one is chasing him, he may keep resting, but if he feels that someone is chasing him from behind, then he will definitely rush on the starry night."
"Is there anything else?" After listening to Xu Youzhi's words, Gu Chen did not show a very high emotion, but focused on Xu Youzhi.
Xu Youzhi was well aware of Hu Peng's many little habits, so Gu Chen had reason to believe that the two actually had a good relationship.
Otherwise, how could Xu Youzhi know these little secrets?
"Let's go." Gu Chen didn't want to waste too much time here, so he got up and continued walking towards the bamboo forest ahead.
At this moment, a large bamboo forest appeared in front of him. Xu Youzhi quickened his pace, walked to Gu Chen and said:
"You follow me, otherwise you will get lost. This place is quite evil."
"Which evil sect are you referring to?" After hearing Xu Youzhi's words, Gu Chen also asked casually.
But Xu Youzhi smiled and quickly explained: "The climate in this forest is actually complex and changeable."
"Maybe you came here under the bright sun just now, but it won't be long before it rains in the forest."
"But the outside world didn't feel the rain."
"And when you walk on the ridgeline, it will rain unexpectedly."
"Anyway, this forest is complex and changeable, so it's not advisable to stay for a long time. Once, when I was in the mountains, I suddenly encountered heavy fog and almost lost my way."
"It was freezing cold at the time. I felt that if I didn't go out, I would probably die there. It was so scary. Really, listen to me and leave quickly. Walk faster and don't stay here for too long."
