The behavior of the two mysterious people was too weird. If the two of them entered the cave before, they were quite mysterious, but when they came out of the small stone forest, they became a bit casual.
It seemed as if he was deliberately letting the police discover his whereabouts.
Especially riding a motorcycle, don't these two people know that the police can catch them through various surveillance methods?
Obviously, these two people have very high IQs, but they will not let go of this kind of problem.
Therefore, Gu Chen also had an indescribable feeling that the other party was guiding him here.
The security settings at the door seem to be just some minor tricks, just to show off to the police.
"What on earth do they want to do?" Gu Chen couldn't help but have questions in his mind.
But when he came to the third floor, Gu Chen found that this floor was empty, with almost no waste, and it looked a little uncomfortable.
But all three floors of the building have been searched, so only the last floor is left.
Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei looked at each other, both of them knew very well that the fourth floor might be the suspect's hiding place.
Thinking of this, both of them murmured in their hearts, but Gu Chen still chose to continue climbing.
But this time, Gu Chen slowed down his pace and kept his walking movements to a minimum.
But when Gu Chen climbed up the stairs and reached the last floor, he discovered that the fourth floor, like the third floor, did not have too many clutter.
But in the middle of this floor, there is an abandoned desk and an old folding chair.
Gu Chen looked around and found that no one was hiding, then he walked up the stairs and walked towards the desk.
But when Gu Chen came to the desk, he found that there was a photo on the desk.
When Gu Chen saw this, he also noticed something unusual.
Lu Weiwei quickly walked to Gu Chen and reminded, "Junior Brother Gu, why do I feel that the other party put the photo here on purpose?"
"I feel this way too." Not only did Gu Chen feel this way, but this feeling was also very strong.
But since the photo is here, you must pick it up and take a closer look to see what tricks the other party is playing.
In order to avoid damaging the fingerprints on the photo, Gu Chen put on white gloves and opened the photo with a sense of ceremony.
But when Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei saw the contents of the photo, they were shocked at the same time.
"Xu Yaxuan?"
Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei said in unison.
The woman in the photo is none other than Xu Yaxuan. Xu Yaxuan was covered and looked like she was being tied up.
His expression was also very crispy and he looked very embarrassed.
"She was kidnapped? Then among the two people just now, wasn't one of them Xu Yaxuan?" Lu Weiwei was a little confused now.
Before, everyone always thought that Xu Yaxuan would be with the two guides.
But now it seems that the composition of these people is very complicated, and there may be others.
And if Xu Yaxuan is kidnapped, what are the demands of this group of people?
Lu Weiwei repeatedly looked at the photos of Xu Yaxuan being kidnapped, then turned to look at Gu Chen and said:
"Junior Brother Gu, Xu Yaxuan was definitely not kidnapped in this abandoned building."
"It is easy to see from the background of the photo that she is in the forest, outdoors, and..."
After thinking for a while, Lu Weiwei added: "Besides, it looks like it's in the same mountain forest we walked through before."
"Yeah." Gu Chen could certainly tell that although the background was only outdoors, judging from the surrounding plants, Gu Chen also felt that the location for taking the photo was in the mountains and forests, and it was the same mountains and forests that everyone had walked through before.
"It seems that Xu Yaxuan is probably still in a secret place in the mountains and forests."
"Perhaps one of the people who kidnapped her was one of the two guides."
"But why did they put a photo of Xu Yaxuan being kidnapped here? Did they show it to us on purpose?" Lu Weiwei said she didn't quite understand.
But Gu Chen affirmed: "This is already obvious. The other party showed it to us on purpose."
"Moreover, they must know that we have been tracking them, so they deliberately posted a photo of Xu Yaxuan being kidnapped. The warning is very obvious."
"What do they want to do? Warn us? Are these people too arrogant?"
Taking a deep breath, Lu Weiwei added: "If this is the case, then if they set up this kind of warning mechanism on the periphery, is it all a cover-up?"
"Don't you think they are going to take that motorcycle?"
"After everything is like this, do you think they will still want it?" Gu Chen also asked Lu Weiwei.
"That's right." Lu Weiwei sighed softly and picked up the phone helplessly.
Since the entire abandoned building had been searched before and no traces were found, Lu Weiwei and Gu Chen now both suspected that the two suspects might have escaped from another location.
But searching for these two people would require a lot of police force, so Lu Weiwei prepared to call them.
Not long after, Officer Wang, Yuan Shasha, Ding Liang, Huang Zunlong, Ji Zhe and others also rushed to the scene.
When everyone saw the photos of Xu Yaxuan being kidnapped, they felt that the situation was a bit incredible.
"These people are too arrogant." Officer Wang complained first, then picked up the photo, looked through it twice, and then said:
"Didn't they make any demands? Just put the photo here. What do you want to do? Warn us? They have already discovered that we are tracking?"
"Maybe." Gu Chen said.
"That's ridiculous." Officer Wang also looked incredulous, waved his hand, and said angrily:
"It seems that these people really don't take our police seriously. Haha, they even left us a threatening photo of kidnapping without asking for it."
"It seems like they didn't make the request, but in fact they have already made it." As soon as Officer Wang finished speaking, Gu Chen also answered:
"Their request is also very simple, that is, let us not be too confident and let us take it easy, otherwise it will be detrimental to Xu Yaxuan."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Yes." As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, Officer Wang walked back and forth twice and said angrily:
"They are laughing at us. They just want to tell us that we have been discovered by them and let us take care of ourselves."
With a heavy gasp, Officer Wang continued: "But I can't swallow this breath."
"What's the difference between this and shitting on top of our heads? You go to all the trouble to lure us here and then leave a photo to threaten us?"
Putting his hands on his hips, Officer Wang said angrily: "Old Wang, I hate people threatening me the most in my life. The more threatening you are, the more I will deal with you."
As he finished speaking, what did Officer Wang suddenly think of? He quickly asked Gu Chen again: "Oh, by the way, Gu Chen, how did they escape?"
"It will become clear if you go over there and take a look." Gu Chen said.
Seeing Gu Chen pointing to a window, there was a thick steel bar running across the inside of the window, and a thick rope was tied in the middle of the steel bar.
Officer Wang immediately came to the window and discovered that the rope extended all the way to the ground.
Seeing this, Officer Wang suddenly realized and said quickly:
"It seems that after entering the fourth floor, these two people left photos, climbed along the rope from the fourth floor to the first floor, and then escaped from the back?"
"That's pretty much what it means." Gu Chen said.
"Chase, you have to run quickly, the other party won't be able to run far without his motorcycle." Officer Wang didn't have much patience now, so he could only turn his head and look behind him, and began to deploy the tracking mission.
Not long after, everyone was temporarily organized into several teams, and then began to search towards the back hill of the abandoned building.
The search team over there has been dispatched, but Gu Chen still stayed in the workshop on the fourth floor.
The entire workshop was empty, except for a desk and an old folding chair.
Obviously, the other party wanted to create an artistic feel.
But under the background of art, I wanted to give the police a warning.
Of course Gu Chen knew that since the other party dared to do this, he was not afraid of being chased by the police.
Therefore, the probability that the police force sent out just now can catch up with the opponent is almost zero.
Gu Chen has clearly felt that the opponent he is about to face seems to be a master of psychology.
Such an operation is undoubtedly showing off one's skills to the police.
Of course, Gu Chen could also understand from the side through the other party's series of arrangements that the other party seemed to be very conceited and had a strong sense of showing off.
It is often difficult to deal with this kind of person, but the other person's arrogance can sometimes cause the other person to suffer.
Gu Chen stood by his desk, his eyes still fixed on Xu Yaxuan in the photo.
Looking at Xu Yaxuan's haggard appearance, Gu Chen found it hard to imagine that Xu Yaxuan would be involved with these desperadoes.
I also thought of the cemeteries that I accidentally discovered in the mountains and forests before, and they all showed signs of being stolen.
Xu Yaxuan's father, Xu Tianxia, seemed to have also participated in tomb robbing operations back then.
Therefore, Gu Chen naturally thought that Xu Yaxuan should have some kind of entrustment from his father Xu Tianxia.
And if Xu Tianxia had robbed tombs here, he should have accumulated a lot of primitive wealth.
But this time Xu Yaxuan left without saying goodbye, perhaps because he came for those treasures.
Thinking of the tour guide who was killed in the cave, Gu Chen naturally thought that there might be internal strife among these people.
Some people want to monopolize property, and perhaps it is for this purpose that they kill their companions.
Perhaps the kidnapping of Xu Yaxuan was just to get Xu Yaxuan to reveal the location of the treasure.
After all, the other party killed his teammates and wanted to learn from Xu Yaxuan the whereabouts of the wealth.
So kidnapping Xu Yaxuan seems more reasonable.
But Gu Chen also knew that if Xu Yaxuan kept silent about the secret of the treasure, the other party might not be able to do anything, but would do something drastic.
Some extraordinary means may be used to threaten Xu Yaxuan.
But if Xu Yaxuan doesn't say anything, her life can still be saved. But if she doesn't say anything, she may encounter some threats from the other party.
Thinking of this, Gu Chen also had a headache: "Xu Yaxuan, Xu Yaxuan, you are so good, why do you want to hang out with these people?"
Gu Chen couldn't help but sigh, feeling that Xu Yaxuan's leaving without saying goodbye had caused so many troubles.
…
…
After a whole night of searching, the team led by Officer Wang returned to the abandoned building in dejection as the sky turned white.
When he saw Gu Chen standing in a daze by the window of the abandoned construction workshop, Officer Wang panted and led his people to Gu Chen's side.
"How's it going?" Seeing the tired look on Officer Wang's face, Gu Chen knew clearly that Officer Wang returned empty-handed.
"It's harmful! Stop talking. I've been looking for him in the woods for a long time, but there's not even a trace of him."
"It feels like the other party is really playing tricks on us, but they have to submit documents to kidnap Xu Yaxuan, right?"
"But so far, I haven't received any notification."
"Yes." As soon as Officer Wang finished speaking, Yuan Shasha on the side quickly agreed:
"They didn't provide any transaction conditions, so they just handed us the photos of Xu Yaxuan's kidnapping."
"I always feel that they should have other tips or warnings."
"It makes sense." Listening to Yuan Shasha's remarks, Officer Wang nodded in agreement, and then said:
"If I find Xu Yaxuan, I have to have a good chat with her. Why should I go there with these people?"
"It's fine now. I paid for it, but I didn't find anything."
"I hope Xu Yaxuan will have a longer memory in the future, it really made us tired.
"Senior Brother Wang, didn't you find some marks in the forest?"
"Yes, but not much." Officer Wang said.
But soon, Officer Wang explained to Gu Chen: "Not to mention, the fact that the other party came up with such an idea shows that he is very professional, but at the same time, it can also be seen that the other party may have used other means of transportation to leave here."
"Of course I know this. My current thought is, where will the other party go?"
"It seems a bit unreasonable to just disappear out of thin air." Gu Chen said.
At this time, Lu Weiwei also came over and said: "I estimate that the other party should have discovered a lot of treasures from Xu Yaxuan."
"So the other party might want to get some treasures from Xu Yaxuan, but they were quickly rejected by Xu Yaxuan."
"The guide may have traveled a lot of mountain roads in order to make more money, or he may have had ill intentions towards Xu Yaxuan, but it doesn't matter now."
"The important thing is that Xu Yaxuan seems to have become the opponent's bargaining chip."
"If the other party is in a desperate situation, they can use Xu Yaxuan's life as a bet."
But Gu Chen has found no trace of Xu Yaxuan now, so he doesn't know what Xu Yaxuan's current situation is.
"Looking, we still have to keep looking, search more carefully."
"clear."
After Gu Chen's words, everyone immediately started busy again.
Gu Chen picked up the kidnapping photo of Xu Yaxuan again. He always felt that there was something wrong. But for a while, he couldn't figure it out.
In this way, everyone continued searching until noon the next day.
When everyone gathered, Gu Chen found that only Yuan Shasha and Ji Zhe's team had not returned yet.
Looking down at the time on his watch, Gu Chen frowned and asked hurriedly: "Does anyone know where Yuan Shasha and Ji Zhe have gone?"
