Chapter 051: The End and the Beginning

The young man's name was Gong Ming, and he was a lieutenant staff officer under Chief of Staff Wei of the Joint Security Department. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After listening to Gong Ming tell the whole process, Reg pondered for a while and asked, "When evacuating the tourists, didn't you find any suspicious people?" ”

Gong Ming shook his head: "I have been standing at the gate of the scenic spot and have not found it." ”

"What are the main places you searched?"

"After evacuating the tourists, the whole area was almost clear at a glance, and we focused on searching for gentle slopes and hot springs of all sizes."

"So, do you think Luo Zhiyan is no longer in the scenic spot for a long time?" Reg frowned.

Gong Ming nodded: "Yes, the entire crater area is a hundred kilometers away, and the area of the park open to tourists is not large, although there is no cordon, but there are no guards and staff to guard it, from Luo Zhiyan's disappearance to the police after the police blockade of the scenic spot, the period is nearly three hours, if you want to transfer, it is very easy." ”

"You think it's a kidnapping?"

Gong Ming hesitated for a moment and said, "Even if it is a murder, the body is no longer in the scenic spot. ”

Reg's chest hurt fiercely, and cold sweat instantly broke out, and his face turned pale. The word corpse stabbed him deeply, he never thought that Luo Zhiyan was dead, or rather, he had always subconsciously refused to think about this aspect, and Gong Ming's inference was indeed very likely.

"Chief, what's wrong with you? Should I call a doctor? Gong Ming stood up worriedly.

"No, I'm fine, you can sit down." Reg took a slow breath and forced himself to calm down, even if the last thing he wanted to see happened, he would find him, and he would see a dead person or a corpse.

"I'm sorry chief, it's my serious dereliction of duty, and I ask for punishment." Gong Ming still stood and said.

Reg waved his hand and didn't speak, and in his mind, the scenes that Gong Ming narrated to him slowly played back like a movie, as if he was also there at the time.

Like Qi Yunhong, Gong Ming also regarded tourists wearing clothes similar to Luo Zhiyan as him, and the reason for this misidentification was because a mother and daughter came to talk to Gong Ming at that time, diverting Gong Ming's attention and blocking Gong Ming's sight.

Obviously, all this was arranged in advance, including Gong Ming's whereabouts were also exposed to the opponent's eyes early.

From this, it can be concluded that the opponent is clearly not an ordinary gangster, and there is more than one person, and the goal is very clear.

If we consider the aircraft engine case, the kidnapping case of the Eagle Bow Tea Society, and the real and fake bullet case of the Sky Wolf Club that Luo Zhiyan did not know about during this period of time, assuming that the mastermind behind the three cases is the same person or organization, then based on the characteristics of these three cases, it can be inferred that the purpose of the mastermind behind the scenes is not to kidnap, but to kill Luo Zhiyan and create the illusion of accidental death.

If this inference is true, then Luo Zhiyan is likely to still be in the crater scenic area, because any movement violates the principle of accidental death.

"Prepare the car!" Reg said suddenly.

Gong Ming was stunned for a moment, and saw that Reg had already picked up his coat and walked out, so he hurriedly ran two steps to open the door for Rege, and at the same time shouted to the guard standing at the door: "Prepare the car, the chief wants to go out." ”

It was already dark, and the large amount of ash produced by the eruption was still floating over the island, making the night dark like golden velvet, with no light in sight.

Where to start with the huge crater scenic spot. Reg sat in the car frowning and thinking......

Gong Mingzhi learned that the news of Luo Zhiyan's disappearance was purely accidental.

That night, Gong Mingzhi and several colleagues attended a dinner party, and one of his colleagues complained that the police department suppressed press freedom, and that such a good news topic was not allowed to be reported, and a scoop was released in vain.

asked the reason, it turned out that the relative who was traveling with him was a staff member of the crater scenic spot, because Luo Zhiyan became a celebrity on TV once, so many people knew his name, and after Luo Zhiyan disappeared, the person called the relative who did the show. The companion hurried over, but was stopped by the police and warned that no news media should report it.

Gong Mingzhi was taken aback when he heard this, and immediately called a friend at the police station, and after getting the confirmation, he found an excuse and left the dinner. Thinking that Qi Yunhong and the others would definitely not have the heart to eat, he called Ren Keke to buy some food and went to the hotel with her.

In the presidential suite of the hotel, Antuya and the others barely moved, they were still the same as when they first came back, only the ashtray in front of Qi Yunhong was full of cigarette butts.

The slight knock on the door was like thunder in everyone's ears, and everyone's eyes were on the door, Qi Yunhong had the fastest leg, and ran over to open the door first.

Standing outside the door were Gong Mingzhi and Ren Keke, who were carrying two bags of food.

Disappointment was evident on everyone's faces.

"It's you, please come in." Qi Yunhong turned sideways, and the others behind him also moved out of the way in frustration.

"No news yet?" Gong Mingzhi asked.

Qi Yunhong shook his head listlessly.

"Eat something, you haven't eaten in a day." Gong Mingzhi put two bags of food on the table and took out beautifully packaged food boxes from them.

"Thank you, but we don't have an appetite." Qi Yunhong thanked him in a low voice.

"If you don't have an appetite, you have to eat a little, Yunhong, you take the lead." Gong Mingzhi persuaded.

Qi Yunhong looked at the table of delicacies, sighed and shook his head: "I really can't eat it." ”

"Yunhong ......"

"Lao Gong, thank you for your kindness, I will try my best to persuade them to eat."

Gong Mingzhi sighed secretly, knowing that he couldn't help if he stayed at the moment: "I'll go back first, and I'll come back tomorrow, Zhiyan Jiren has his own natural appearance, don't worry too much." ”

Although he knew that these words would not have any comforting effect, all Gong Mingzhi could do at this time was to say these words and send some food.

Ren Keke also persuaded the three girls, and then left with Gong Mingzhi worriedly.

Reg judged correctly, Luo Zhiyan was indeed still in the crater scenic area, less than a kilometer away from the ecological bathroom where he disappeared, but he was not on the ground, but in the cave, and in the cave outside the cordon.

It's also not appropriate to say that the cave is precise, to be precise, he is in the cave in the rock crevice.

It was a rock crack that was difficult to find if you didn't look closer, the widest part was less than fifty centimeters wide, the length was less than one meter, and it was wide at the top and narrow at the bottom.

It took a full twenty minutes for Luo Zhiyan to roughly figure out his situation, first in the wild, because he could see the sky that had darkened, indicating that he had been in a coma for six or seven hours, and secondly, he was still in the crater, because the smell of sulfur was still very pungent, and at the same time, he could feel that the rocks around his body were volcanic rocks, and the third, and most dangerous, point was that he seemed to be falling down little by little.

The last memory was in the bathroom. After eating the eggs, I felt better, but the symptoms quickly returned, even worse than the beginning, and Luo Zhiyan began to suspect that he had not eaten the right breakfast, a bit like food poisoning.

After vomiting in the bathroom, he felt a lot more comfortable, and his head was not so dizzy, Luo Zhiyan turned on the faucet and washed his face, and when he took out the dust mask and was about to put it back on, he suddenly stopped his movements and stared at the mask intently.

At this moment, a handkerchief stretched out from behind his head and covered Luo Zhiyan's mouth and nose at once, the smell was the same as the dust mask he had smelled all morning, only a little heavier, Luo Zhiyan instantly understood everything, but he was powerless to struggle. Vaguely, he felt someone help him out of the bathroom.

When I woke up, I was already trapped in a rock crevice. His feet were empty, his hands were raised high, stuck above his body, the stress points of his whole body were his chest and back, and the pain he carried when he breathed told him that his sternum must be broken.

It is conceivable that he must have been grabbed by someone and thrown into the hole with his hands, that person would really find a place, and actually threw him into a place smaller than a well, and it was also Luo Zhiyan's fate, and the dust mask on his mouth and nose gradually fell into the process of revealing the gap little by little, when Luo Zhiyan was awake, the mask was already crooked to the side, if it had been covered, it was estimated that Luo Zhiyan would never wake up, a few days, or dozens of days, a few months later, someone accidentally found out, Luo Zhiyan became an unlucky tourist who accidentally fell and died.

However, although he is still alive, can he finally go from a dead tourist to a living tourist?

Luo Zhiyan smiled bitterly in his heart, he had been crying out in pain for more than half an hour, not only did he shout hoarsely, but the sky was also dark, the sky was floating with volcanic ash covering all the stars and the moon, and the eyes were so dark that his eyes were completely useless, and the only thing that responded to him was the sound of the wind or the wind.

There are usually no people here, if he can live until tomorrow to open the park, maybe someone will pass by, but his disappearance has already made a lot of noise, right, will the park open normally tomorrow?

The pain in his chest is getting more and more, Luo Zhiyan can even feel the sweet smell of blood in his mouth, if the ribs pierce his lungs, he will not survive the dawn, if he breaks two more ribs, he will continue to slide, and then be squeezed to death, so, he will die after all, and it will be very painful, it is better to wear a mask and die in ignorance all the time.

What to do, usually Luo Zhiyan has so many ghost ideas that he has like bamboo shoots after a rain, but at the moment there is only a blank in his mind.

The limbs have been compressed for a long time, and the numbness is no longer like his own, so soft that he doesn't need a trace of strength, and every breath hurts, Luo Zhiyan is very strange, why won't his chest be numb, so he won't feel pain.

For a moment, Luo Zhiyan was even thinking about how to slide down hard, squeeze two more ribs, if he was lucky, he would directly squeeze his heart, he would die instantly, and if he was unlucky, he would puncture his lungs, and he would also suffocate in a short time, no matter what the situation was, he would not have to suffer this crime again.

Luo Zhiyan is not very afraid of death, he has always believed that people's fear of death is actually the fear of pain and the unknown. Death is not just the end, but the end and the beginning of a new journey, whether there is a soul after death, and whether there is a rebirth after death, it will be a new beginning, just like birth.
