Chapter 508: Blizzard Mountain Villa Murder (3)
14:32 p.m.
Seeing that he was only fifteen kilometers away from the nearest village, Lin Lei estimated that he would be able to reach the populated place in about an hour and a half.
Lin Lei's prediction was too pessimistic - Lin Lei calculated that the distance was one foot deep in the snow and one foot shallow, so it would indeed take several hours to walk from the place where the car had a flat tire to the nearest populated village.
However, the reality is obviously much more optimistic, because although the snow is deep, the road leading to the village is still contoured, and the road is harder than the snow, and the progress of the road is much better.
In a word, although there is a white expanse everywhere, there is a big difference between a completely snowy field and a snowy road—fortunately, in the midst of the white expanse, the careful Lin Lei still found the way.
There is a pass in front, and GPS shows that after turning over this pass, it is not far from the village.
Lin Lei couldn't help but speed up his pace.
From a probabilistic point of view, excluding extreme cases, then a person's luck, in the long run, should be conserved.
Lin Lei was very unlucky before, but he seems to be a little lucky now.
In fact, the previous car tire burst made Lin Lei very angry.
It wasn't an ordinary puncture, it was a prank.
When renting a car, in view of the fact that the road conditions are definitely not very good after the snowstorm, Lin Lei has personally inspected all the important parts of the off-road vehicle, and the tires are naturally the top priority.
There was nothing wrong with the tires at all, what went wrong was a bunch of large nails!
Yes, I don't know why there are large iron nails under the snowy road, which Lin Lei really can't figure out.
This kind of routine, perhaps in some national and provincial highways in China, is nothing more than the "hands and feet" of unscrupulous car repair shops in the vicinity to solicit business.
However, the vicinity of the puncture site is simply a wilderness, so Lin Lei immediately ruled out the possibility of the car repair shop "doing something".
Why there are a lot of iron nails in that place, Lin Lei can't figure it out, it can only be attributed to his own bad luck, right?
Maybe it fell from the truck that pulled the nails, maybe it was the "bear child" doing something, who knows?
Fortunately, the road is easier to walk now, and I am sure that I will be able to reach the village before dark......
Lin Lei walked forward quickly, still a little uneasy in his heart.
I can't tell why, but I just have a very bad feeling in my heart - just like the day I was in Tianchang Town not long ago, I always felt that something was going to happen.
When Lin Lei walked to the pass and looked at it, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded......
Below the pass is a very narrow valley, and as far as the eye can see, there are faint shadows of some houses in the far, far away - yes, about ten kilometers.
However, at the intersection of the narrow valley, there was a landslide!
That's right, it wasn't the sand that collapsed, it was the snow.
The snow was a mess, completely blocking the only path in the valley.
It is impossible to continue without taking this path to the opposite side unless you take a detour.
Lin Lei looked around again, almost all of them were small mountains—mountains and mountains in the snow, which could not be compared to usual.
The nearest village can't be visited......
Lin Lei took out his mobile phone again, but now the battery of the mobile phone is only 5%......
The enclave turned on the GPS software, and after positioning, there was a Cook Hill Villa ten kilometers away from Lin Leixian.
Whether there was anyone there, Lin Lei didn't know.
Lin Lei had also seen that place before, but since he couldn't be sure if there was anyone, Lin Lei decided that it would be safer to go to the village.
Although the village is a little far away, who knows if there is anyone at that Cook Hill Cottage?
GPS maps show what kind of resort it is, but how can anyone go on vacation in such snowstorm conditions now?
After pondering for a while, Lin Lei calculated that he could only go to Cook Hill - even if there was no one there, he could find a place to hide from the wind and snow overnight, and wait until dawn tomorrow.
"Drop-" A crisp ringtone came from the phone, accompanied by a screen that went completely black......
"It's out of power—" Lin Lei sighed, but fortunately he remembered the location of Cook Hills, so he walked to Cook Hills with a deep foot and a shallow foot.
……
The snow is falling again, and it's getting heavier.
In the heavy snow, a figure is walking on the path one foot deep and one foot shallow.
He was McGovern, who left Cook Hill alone.
In the wind and snow, a small wooden house appeared ahead.
The corners of McGovern's mouth twitched slightly, and his brow furrowed.
Far away, McGovern was under the door of the cabin in front of him, and some red liquid flowed out and seeped into the white snow.
McGovern's professional sensibilities for years of hunting made McGovern immediately alert, and he immediately put his hand on the gun at his waist, and then approached the cabin step by step.
In the United States, private individuals can own guns, and the government does not prohibit people from carrying guns with them - everyone understands these situations and does not need to go into details.
McGovern didn't immediately open the door to the cabin, but walked to the window and looked inside—maybe something would be there to prepare......
However, after looking at it for a long time, McGovern's cabin was empty, and there was nothing to ......
Relenting, McGovern walked to the door of the cabin, slowly crouched down, dipped his index finger in the red liquid, and sniffed it again......
"It's not blood, it's paint—who's doing this boring prank?" said McGovern, shaking his head, muttering to himself.
Just as McGovern was about to get up, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of his head when he heard a "bang", and then he fell unconscious.
……
Cook Hill House.
After the game, everyone went back to their rooms and took a separate lunch break.
Before returning to her room, Kelly called her husband, Gibson, to ask where he had gone.
On the phone, Gibson said that he was going to shoot the snow scenes, and asked Kelly to rest first, and he would be back later.
Gibson's hobby is photography, and the snow near Cook Hill is beautiful, and it is normal for her husband to go to shoot snow scenes, so Kelly went back to her room for a lunch break.
Everyone returned to their rooms, closed the door and rested, and the entire Cook Hill fell into a deathly silence.
As the minutes ticked by, it was broad daylight, but because everyone went back to their rooms to rest, Cook Hill looked particularly gloomy......
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps, followed by a creak, and the gate of the cottage opened, and a figure walked out of the gate of Cook Cottage.
As soon as the man opened the door, he couldn't help but shiver, it turned out that the snow was falling again outside at some point.
He tugged at the scarf around his neck and wrapped it tightly, then he closed the door and disappeared into the snow......
