Lack of physical strength naturally can't be forced, and after a group of people stopped for a little repair and discussion, they let the few who lacked physical strength go down the mountain first, and the others continue to climb.

Originally, I came to see the snowy mountains, and I couldn't return to the hotel because some of them lacked physical strength.

The rest of the trail is steeper, and the closer you get to the top, the cooler it gets. The sky was covered with dense clouds, as if there would be a snowstorm at any moment.

The gloomy weather and the slippery mountain road made the group take several breaks before reaching the summit. However, the top of the mountain is not covered with snow as introductory, only a few snowflakes. Fortunately, the scenery at the top of the mountain is good, but it was not in vain.

At the top of the hill there is a special cabin for tourists, which serves hot water and simple food. The group ate instant noodles and drank hot water, took pictures, and rested.

Gu Shi'an was not keen on taking pictures, so he was responsible for taking pictures for everyone. I also took a lot of landscape photos in the gaps.

There are several special scenic spots on the mountain, one of which is called Cloud Cave. It has not yet been developed, but there are natural and rare stalactites.

Because it has not been developed, the scenic spot has been posted with a warning that it is forbidden to enter and all the consequences are at your own risk. Despite this, there are still tourists who enter and stand not far from the entrance of the cave and take pictures.

They have already arrived, and the vice president proposes that everyone go in and have a look. Anyway, there are many people, and they are not afraid of anything.

No one knows how deep such a hole is, and no one knows whether it is dangerous or not. Before the rest of the people could speak, Gu Shi'an's mind changed slightly, and he waited for them outside on the grounds that he had to conserve his strength, and did not go in.

She made a statement first, and even if everyone in the back wanted to go in, it wouldn't be too upset.

Maybe it's out of curiosity, maybe it's because I don't want to refute the vice president's face. In the end, everyone except Gu Shi'an went in.

Gu Shi'an was waiting for them outside, and did not go to a remote place. After standing outside for a while, I went back to the cabin where I was resting.

When she arrived at the cabin, she pretended to ask the staff inside, only to find out that there were many forks in the cave. There have been several incidents of lost passengers. But fortunately, I didn't go deep and found it all back.

No one knows how deep the hole is, because no one has ever entered it because of the lost incident.

Gu Shi'an originally thought that it would take them half an hour and an hour to come back, but who knew that it wasn't, she had just drunk a cup of hot water, and the group came back.

She was slightly surprised in her heart, and looked at Secretary Zhu, who smiled and said, "We didn't bring a flashlight, and it was too dark to walk." ”

Probably because they were tired, the group did not go to the rest of the attractions. After a short rest, we descended the mountain.

Although it was still early to descend the mountain, it was already evening when I got to the place where I took the cable car. After some repairs and back to the hotel, it was already dark.

After a day of climbing the mountain, everyone was tired and hungry. I didn't even go back to my room and went straight to the restaurant. Secretary Zhu was thoughtful, and when he arrived at the restaurant, he called the people who came back first and asked them to come down and eat together.

When it was the turn to make a call to the less than one, the smaller phone was turned off, and I don't know if the phone was out of battery or what.

When everyone eats together, you can't leave less than one person behind. She got up and was about to go upstairs to find Xiao.

After a day of running, everyone was tired, and the vice president naturally didn't want to keep her busy anymore, so he invited the waiter to go upstairs and call her down.

The waiter didn't come back as soon as he went, everyone was hungry, and after the food was served, the vice president beckoned everyone to eat first. Less than eating later.

As soon as the group ate and drank, they went to invite the waiter who was younger and hurried down. told Secretary Zhu that she was not in the room, and she knocked on the door for a long time but no one answered.

Secretary Zhu asked the people who came back together, and those people said that everyone was scattered on the mountain and did not go back to the hotel together.

When I was on the mountain, I said I wanted to take pictures, and everyone was not familiar with each other, so they all went to their own places and didn't come back together.

This means that no one knows whether or not it is back in the end.

It's all such a big person, and they won't get lost. Everyone is tired and it is not good to work hard to move the crowd, remembering that Xiao Xiao stayed in the casino for a long time yesterday, and the vice president gave the waiter a tip and asked her to go to the casino to have a look.

The waiter didn't come back for a long time, and he came back knowing that the group had almost eaten. She told the vice president that she had gone to the casino to see it, but she was not there. She also went to several places in the hotel for tourists to have fun, but she didn't see anyone.

Such a living person will never suddenly disappear. But this is a strange place after all, and I don't know if Xiao Xiao has come back. The vice president became anxious and asked everyone to look for it separately.

The hotel asked the manager of the hotel to help him ask the hotel staff to help him find it. And the group rushed back to the mountain.

At this time, it was already dark outside, but fortunately, there was a spare flashlight in the hotel, and each person was given one.

didn't even return to the room, Gu Shi'an originally wanted to find an opportunity to call Chen Xiao to talk, but he never was able to be single, so he had to give up in the end.

As she walked up the hill, she suddenly remembered how listless she had been in the morning, and she always felt that something was wrong.

At this time, the cable car had already stopped, and when they learned that they were going up the mountain to find someone, the staff on the other side of the cable car told them that there should be no one on the mountain. Fearing that some tourists would be stranded on the mountain, they had staff members patrol around every day before closing the cable car after dark.

But it is inevitable that there will be accidents, the vice president took out Xiao Wang's work photos to ask the staff to identify whether they had an impression of her, but the staff shook their heads and said no. There are so many people going up and down the mountain every day, where can he remember so many faces.

In order to prevent Xiao Xiao from being trapped on the mountain, the staff finally went up the mountain with several people and searched for it again.

Naturally, there is no way to find such a big place on the mountain, but the staff is familiar with the mountain and knows that those places will trap people. I searched all those places one by one, but I still didn't see anyone.

Unless something happens to an adult, the chances of being trapped on a mountain are small. The last group returned in vain.

There was also no progress on the hotel side, and the smaller rooms had been opened, but there was no one in them and there was no clutter. The front desk also doesn't remember if I'm back at all. It's as if such a big person has disappeared out of thin air.

Then it was already more than ten o'clock after a toss, and the group was exhausted. Secretary Zhu asked everyone to go back and rest first, and then she negotiated with the hotel to have a look.

There was almost no objection to her proposal, and after a tiring day, the group had to go back to wash and change their clothes. Let her inform everyone of the news, and go back to their rooms.

It was a big night, and Gu Shi'an originally thought that Chen Xiao was in the room. Who knew that when you enter the house and turn on the light, you find that the house is empty. There is no figure of Chen Xiao.

She took out her mobile phone and dialed Chen Xiao's number. As soon as the phone was dialed, I heard a vibrating sound ringing from the coffee table. He didn't go out with his phone.

Since he didn't go out with his phone, he should be out and back soon. Gu Shi'an hung up the phone and went into the bathroom to wash and change clothes.

She thought that Chen Xiao would be back soon, but she didn't. He was not seen until she finished washing up and went out.

If he didn't come back all the time, he would definitely be looking for it, and after Gu Shi'an came out of the bathroom, he found clothes to change into.

As soon as I changed my clothes, there was a knock on the door of the hotel.

If Chen Xiao came back, he should have opened the door directly and came in instead of knocking. Gu Shi'an took his coat and put it on, and walked quickly to open the door.

Standing outside was Secretary Zhu, who had already changed her clothes and taken a shower. The hair is still slightly damp.

Gu Shi'an was not surprised to see her, and asked, "Is there any news of Xiaoxiao?" ”

Secretary Zhu shook his head and said, "Not yet." She was a little speechless.

Gu Shi'an asked, "What's wrong?" ”

It was inconvenient to stand in the corridor and talk, so she let Secretary Zhu into the room. Secretary Zhu refused, hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I want to ask you and me to go to the casino to have a look." ”

She didn't hide it anymore when she opened her mouth, and then said: "It's less than last night when I went to the casino, and it seems that I lost in the end." You should have lost all the wins during the day, and you should have lost a lot. When I left last night, I saw that her face was not good-looking. ”

Gu Shi'an was stunned for a moment, no wonder she was listless today. She was very excited to win at the beginning yesterday, if she hadn't lost, how could she be listless.

Secretary Zhu naturally wouldn't say this for no reason, smiled bitterly, and said: "In the past, I had a relative who was good at gambling, and those who lost would only want to gamble more and more when they lost." ”

Gu Shi'an looked at her, was silent for a moment, and said, "Do you mean that Xiao may still be in the casino?" ”

Secretary Zhu nodded and said, "I asked when I talked to the manager of the hotel just now, the casino is not under the jurisdiction of the hotel, and it is a separate business, so he doesn't know the specific situation over there, only the people over there know." After a slight pause, she continued, "So I want you and me to go over there and ask again." Less than if it's really over there...... It's not good to let them know. ”

Yes, if less than really stay in the casino all the time. Whether it is in the eyes of colleagues or leaders, the impression must be earth-shaking.

Gu Shi'an didn't say anything, and simply responded with a good sentence.

Secretary Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a slight smile: "I am not familiar with life, and I am really a little hairy in my heart when I am alone." ”

Gu Shi'an didn't say anything, just smiled and closed the door.

It was the same as the day before, and the hallway was still quiet. Occasionally, I would see a waiter hurrying by.

The casino is not far from the hotel, but it takes seven or eight minutes to go. The casino at night is more lively than during the day, and there are many more people. But it's still organized. There is not the slightest mess.

After entering the casino, Gu Shi'an looked around and asked Secretary Zhu in a low voice, "You go this way, I'll go that way, if you don't see anyone later, we will meet here." ”

Secretary Zhu nodded and said yes, and the two acted separately.

It's not chaotic here, and it's easy to find someone. Gu Shi'an went around in a circle, but he didn't see the figure of Xiao.

She was about to go back to the hall to meet Secretary Zhu, when a waiter-looking person wearing a casino vest came over and asked with a polite smile, "Madam, are you looking for someone?" ”

Gu Shi'an was stunned. Although she didn't pay attention deliberately, it wasn't blatant, and he still paid attention.

Since everyone has already been found, she can't deny it. She didn't shy away anymore, and said with the same polite smile: "Yes." My friend was supposed to be here, but the phone didn't work. So I'll take a look over here. ”

The waiter, still smiling, asked, "Is your friend a man or a woman?" ”

Gu Shi'an replied that it was a lady.

The waiter then said, "Can you describe to me her features?" I'll ask my colleague here. ”

He didn't seem to have malicious intentions, Gu Shi'an pondered for a while, and said all about the appearance characteristics of Xiao Xiao and the clothes he wore today.

The waiter took out a piece of paper and wrote it down, and then said, "Ma'am, sit here." I'll ask for you right now. It's easy for you to walk around here and there, causing unnecessary misunderstandings. ”

He didn't say what misunderstanding it would cause. Gu Shi'an didn't ask, and followed him to the rest area.

The waiter left quickly, and Gu Shi'an took out his mobile phone to call Secretary Zhu. Tell her she's in the rest area, and a waiter spotting her looking for someone. Now go ask his colleague.

Secretary Zhu didn't get anything out of it, she told Gu Shi'an that she would go to the bathroom and come to the rest area to meet her in a while.

After notifying her, Gu Shi'an breathed a sigh of relief, put his phone back, and looked at the people coming and going in the lobby with a pair of eyes.

Secretary Zhu said that he would come to meet her when he went to the bathroom, but he didn't come for a long time. The waiter who went to ask his colleague came back first.

This time, he didn't smile, his face was slightly dignified. Gu Shi'an saw the clue, stood up, and asked, "Did you find someone?" ”

The waiter was a little embarrassed, hesitated for a moment, and said, "A lady who matches your description has arrived here today. ”

Finally, there is less than the news. Gu Shi'an breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately asked, "Where is she now?" ”

The waiter's face was embarrassed, and he said, "Our casino has a rule that we don't disclose guest information to anyone. But this lady has something special......" He paused and said, "It's inconvenient to say this here, please come here." ”

What he meant by that was less than what was going on here.

Gu Shi'an's heart sank, he originally wanted to wait for Secretary Zhu to come back, but when he saw that the waiter had already led the way, he had to follow.

She didn't know where the waiter was going to take her, so she quietly watched the route as she asked, "Is she here now?" What happened? ”

The waiter said, "I can only tell you that she was here today. As for where she is, I'll have to ask her before I can tell you. After he finished speaking, he looked around, lowered his voice, and said, "That lady has borrowed a lot of money from us. ”

Xiao Xiao's courage is really big enough, Gu Shi'an's eyelids jumped. said: "How much did you borrow?" ”

Now the waiter refused to say any more, and vaguely said that it was a large amount. And on their side, there are rules for borrowing money. It's not like you can borrow if you can borrow it, it depends on whether you can pay it back. It doesn't matter if you can't afford it, as long as you ...... Able to pay off debts.

The more he said this, the more frightened Gu Shi'an became. I was secretly thinking about it.

After passing through several intricate corridors, the waiter took Gu Shi'an to a large carved wooden door. He stopped at the door and said, "I'm only responsible for bringing you here, so go in." Someone will tell you where that lady is. ”

As he spoke, he pushed the door open. It was a large room that resembled a conference room, but it wasn't there.

Since they have all come, Gu Shi'an simply went with the flow. I said thank you and walked into the house. The waiter told her to wait, closed the door softly, and left.

The room was very quiet, but I could tell that there must be people coming here often.

Gu Shi'an looked around and sat down on the leather sofa.

She was like a forgotten guest, and no one came. I didn't see Secretary Zhu calling her. When she took out her phone to check the time, she realized that there was no signal here.

Her brow furrowed slightly, and after sitting for another five minutes and still no one came, she pursed her lips and stood up to leave.

But as soon as she walked to the door, she put her hand on the doorknob and didn't open the door, when there was a dull pain in the back of her head, and it was pitch black in front of her, and she fell down softly.

When Gu Shi'an woke up, he was in a dimly lit room, and there was nothing in the room, only a dim yellow lamp overhead.

She had barely moved when a tingling pain came from the back of her head. She took a breath of cold air. Only then did I realize that my mouth was also blocked. She lowered her head, and her body was also tied, and it was difficult to even move. She leaned her head against the wall, and the scenes before she fell unconscious came to mind.

In the room she entered, there was someone. She had been in there for so long, and she hadn't even noticed it. I don't know where the man was hiding, and how he suddenly knocked her unconscious.

She had no clue in her head, and she didn't even figure out how she was tied up here.

She looked around again, and there was nothing in the room. But looking at the dampness of the ground and the overhead lights, you know that this is still in the casino.

The casino is in the basement, and only the basement will be so damp. There was no movement around, no sound, and I don't know where in the casino.

She was still too careless, she should have waited for Secretary Zhu to come over just now. Or, you should send a message to Chen Xiao.

She didn't know how long she had been in a coma, and she didn't know if Chen Xiao had found out that she was gone. Or, he hasn't returned to the hotel yet.

When Gu Shi'an's mind was chaotic, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside. She closed her eyes and pretended to be unconscious.

Footsteps soon followed, followed by the sound of the door opening. It should be a person coming, and the footsteps are single.

She was wondering whether to open her eyes when the man walked up to her. In an emergency, his face was splashed with icy water. She opened her eyes reflexively.

The visitor was wearing a casino vest and had a food box at his feet. He opened the box, then he tore off the cloth stuffed in Gu Shi'an's mouth, scooped a spoonful of rice with a spoon and handed it to Gu Shi'an's mouth.

It turned out that she had come to bring her food.

Gu Shi'an didn't open his mouth and asked, "Where is this?" ”

She hadn't spoken for too long, and her voice was hoarse.

But the man didn't answer her, he pinched her mouth open and poured the spoonful of rice into her mouth.

He didn't care if she would be swallowed or not, and continued to pinch her mouth and stuff a few spoonfuls of rice, only then pinching her cheek and letting her swallow it.

His strength was terrifying, and Gu Shi'an couldn't struggle at all. She swallowed the food with great difficulty, and when the man let go of her mouth, she asked, "Who are you?" ”

The man raised his eyelids and looked at her, and said, "I advise you not to ask more." When you bring food, you will eat. to avoid the suffering of flesh and skin. ”

The meaning of this is that he has been pitiful enough just now.

Gu Shi'an was silent for a moment, looked up at the man, and said, "Did you catch the wrong person?" I'm here to find someone......"

Before she could finish her sentence, the man sneered. didn't answer her words, but rudely scooped up a big spoonful of rice and handed it to Gu Shi'an's mouth.

With the lesson just now, Gu Shi'an ate the meal now.

The man didn't stop, finished feeding the bowl of rice, poured some water on Gu Shi'an, then took the cloth that had gagged her mouth before and plugged her mouth, and then left with the lunch box.

Gu Shi'an whimpered and shook his head without replying, and closed the door directly with a snap. The footsteps quickly faded away, and Gu Shi'an leaned back against the wall.

Although she didn't know who was capturing her, since she was given food, it proved that she shouldn't want her life for the time being.

I didn't know what time it was in the basement, but she knew that no one should come over for the time being, so she closed her eyes and kept her spirits.

Not long after I closed my eyes, there were footsteps again. This time there was also a voice talking.

"Are you going to take people now?" It should be the person who delivered the meal before.

The man with a rougher voice said, "It's not dawn yet, and it won't attract attention if there are few people to take it out." ”

"Didn't Brother Liang say that he would send him away later?" The person delivering the meal asked.

"That's what I said at that time, I don't know who called, and said that there are many people here, and the sooner you send them away, the better. It's a fucking hassle. I didn't even close my eyelids tonight. The man in a gruff voice cursed.

The footsteps of the two were close, probably because they were afraid that Gu Shi'an would hear it, so their voices were lowered when they spoke again.
