Guan Rui, as the backbone of the county, has excellent professional skills and strong psychological quality, and is Meng Jiefang's most powerful right-hand man.

Lin Xiaoyu shook his head desperately and cried at him: "No, I don't believe you!" I'm going to see for myself! ”

Lin Xiaoyu still wanted to rush forward, but this time Meng Jiefang didn't stop her, seeing that she had run to the altar, Lin Xiaoyu sat down on the ground in despair, and no longer had the courage to go up to check.

Maybe she has already accepted this fact in her heart, but she doesn't have the courage to face it at all, and she doesn't dare to go forward to check, which is the best proof.

Qin Dayou seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said to Meng Jiefang: "Captain Meng, the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family has lost her child, and we can understand the mood, they are all neighbors in the village, and Zhao Jianghai is ...... We don't plan to pursue the matter of the Dragon King Temple anymore, let's continue to go out to find the child. ”

I have to say that although Qin Dayou has not read too many books, his speculation and grasp of people's hearts are at the fire of the old fox.

Now he took the initiative to give in, showing his generosity, because the initiative was back in his hands, and he enjoyed this sense of control very much.

Meng Jiefang was afraid that he was also scolding in his heart, but a smile also appeared on his face, and he was about to talk to Qin Dayou, but at this time, Yan Yu spoke.

"Comrade Guan, do you think there is anything suspicious?"

His voice was loud and full of neutrality, and it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The villagers, who were still talking about it, stopped again and looked at Yan Yu with disgust on their faces, as if they were spitting on Yan Yu's endless and unreasonable trouble.

"Suspicious place?" Guan Rui didn't have a good impression of Yan Yu, but Yan Yu still asked him to check, this kind of sympathy, or recognition of his technical level, was difficult for him to hate.

It is naturally a comfortable thing to be recognized and appreciated by friends, but in addition to being comfortable, you will also guess that this is a flattery from your friends, not a sincere compliment.

However, being recognized and appreciated by your "enemies" can make you feel a sense of accomplishment that you have never felt before.

Guan Rui is in such a situation now, Yan Yu has had a lot of "collisions" with him, but at the critical moment, Yan Yu chose to believe him, this is a recognition of him and a trust, he can't treat everyone equally because Yan Yu is a major suspect.

Everyone was waiting for Guan Rui's reply, and seemed to be urging him to say a few perfunctory words casually, understand this thoroughly, and then devote himself wholeheartedly to the work of finding the child.

But Guan Rui hesitated for a long time before speaking cautiously.

"There is indeed no secret door behind this statue, but I found that it is hollow, if there is a child hidden inside, with the size of the statue and the internal space, there is still this possibility."

As soon as Guan Rui's words came out, everyone was in an uproar, and Qin Dayou, who had just shown his magnanimity, had a difficult face to look at.

"Comrade Guan, Lin Xiaoyu was hit one after another, and listened to Yan Yu's bewitchment, so he had such a ridiculous idea, instead of doing senseless entanglement here, it is better to go out to find the child as soon as possible!"

Guan Rui is not Meng Jiefang, he is not good at communicating, he only focuses on his own field, and he also has no good impression of Qin Da who has such scheming.

"What the village chief said is not right, you suspect that Yan Yu buried the child and dug holes everywhere, this probability is not much different from the probability of the child hiding in the statue, if you want to delay things, it will be a waste of time like a headless fly."

As soon as Guan Rui said this, Qin Dayou's face turned pale, and the villagers also whispered and discussed, and the atmosphere was very stiff.

Meng Jiefang raised his hand and said to Guan Rui: "Guan Rui, the search and rescue plan was decided by us and the search and rescue team, this is a big deal, you can't be ambiguous, if you have any comments or suggestions on the search and rescue plan, you should have questioned it long ago, and it shouldn't be raised at this time, which will affect everyone's work mood." ”

Guan Rui pursed his lips: "That's what I said......"

He jumped down from the altar, and for fear that Meng Jiefang would be embarrassed again, he walked up to the front and asked Yan.

"What do you want to do?"

Yan Yu and Guan Rui looked at each other for a moment, and said loudly: "I think the child is hiding here, there must be a passage, but we haven't found it, so ...... So just tear down the idol and you'll know! ”

"Demolished the statue?" Yan Yu's words were undoubtedly boulders thrown into the lake, and the atmosphere of the crowd exploded!

Although Meng Jiefang couldn't see anything good on his face, he was afraid that he would sigh in his heart, this teacher was too good at tossing!

Qin Dayou can be said to be angry here, and Meng Jiefang didn't want things to develop in an extreme direction, so he said to Yan.

"Comrade Yan Yu, you are so convinced that the child is hiding here, is there any evidence?"

"Evidence?" Yan Yu walked up to Lin Xiaoyu and said to her, "Xiaoyu, you tell Captain Meng what last words Zhao Jianghai left before he died. ”

Lin Xiaoyu is like a flat boat, going back and forth between the sea of disappointment and the tide of hope, and he is already insensitive.

He said...... He said that there is water to live, and there is water to live! ”

"Can you live with water?"

"Yes, before Zhao Jianghai clashed with me, he personally admitted that the child was in his hands and confirmed to me that the child was safe." The matter has come to this point, Yan Yu is not afraid of delaying time, what should be made clear is to be clear after all.

"The case of Zhao Jianghai's disappearance back then was also because he was looking for a water source, of course, this is an old case, the matter has been verified with the truth, it is not my business, and there is no evidence of the situation I have, so I won't say much."

"What I want to say is that the entire Laohe Fort territory, the most likely place to have a water source, is here!"

"In other words, the place where you can hide your child and keep your child safe is most likely here!"

"You say this is the place! What kind of evidence is this! Qin Dayou's face was gloomy, and the strongman was angry, and he drank a word to Yan.

Yan Yu didn't look at him, but pointed at Zhang Gulin, and said to everyone: "This is Professor Zhang Gulin of the exploration team, everyone should know each other, right?" Everyone should believe his words, right? ”

Zhang Gulin has not been involved in the dispute, because he is still suppressing the excitement and excitement in his heart.

Although his work is geological exploration, to find oil and gas resources for the country, and to undertake some scientific research work, he is also very willing to bring benefits to the local people.

Besides, no one understands Yan Yu's painstaking efforts better than him.

But after all, he is a scientific worker, and he can't use his own emotions to act rashly, and when he saw that everyone's eyes were on him, he also stood up at this time.

"Exploration is a very complex, very technical work, and I can't say that there is absolutely a water source here, only that there is a great probability that there is a water source here."

These words made Qin Dayou find a flaw, and he was about to use this to launch a counterattack, but Yan Yu didn't give him this opportunity, and asked Zhang Gulin.

"Professor Zhang, what if you put aside your work identity and answer this question in your personal capacity?"

"Personal identity...... Zhang Gulin frowned.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao Yan, everyone needs to be responsible for their own remarks, my personal identity does not allow me to publish professional conclusions at work......"

Qin Dayou couldn't help but snort: "This is what you call evidence?" ”

Yan Yu also sighed, he knew that Zhang Gulin was an old-fashioned person, but he didn't expect that this would be the result after all.

Maybe Zhang Gulin didn't understand Yan Yu's intentions at all, or maybe he understood, but he was unwilling to tarnish his professionalism and professional ethics.

"But...... Village Chief Qin, fellow villagers, although I can't express my conclusions in my personal capacity, I can express my views on Teacher Yan Yu in my personal capacity. ”

"The environment of this place is harsh, it can even be said that it is not a habitable place, drought is the norm, whether anyone thinks that people will win the day, I don't know, but Mr. Yan Yu is a person who will never compromise."

"His active involvement in finding water will indeed cause a lot of trouble in people's lives, and may have had an impact on your religious beliefs."

"But have you ever thought that he could move somewhere else, he wasn't born and raised here, he could just pat his ass and leave, so why bother to find water?"

"He's doing it for himself? He's a self-inflicted man? He's for you! ”

When Zhang Gulin said this, he seemed to be a little moved, and his eyes were moist.

"You don't know the difficulty and hardship of the exploration work, Mr. Yan Yu is a scholar, and the hands that should be holding chalk to write on the blackboard and touching the book have already been full of blood blisters because of exploring the caves, and I watched him pick up the blood blisters one by one, the skin was worn off, and finally formed a thick cocoon......

"You see, this is the note he sent when he asked Xu Ao to hand over the child's shoes to me."

Zhang Gulin unfolded the note and displayed it on all sides.

"He wanted me to put my shoes in the caving and let you go to the child, because he was afraid that he had made a mistake and maybe the child had really fallen into the cave."

"And, while looking for the children, you can also dig all the caves that have been marked, but have not been dug."

Even at this time, he still did not give up the idea of finding a water source, because he knew that even if he found the child, without water, it would be difficult for the village to survive!"

As soon as Zhang Gulin's words came out, everyone was shocked, and some people silently lowered their heads.

No one expected that Yan Yu would take the initiative to put the suspicion on his head, so that everyone could find a water source while looking for the child.

This kind of thing certainly kills two birds with one stone, but at the same time, it will somewhat delay everyone's time to find the child, which is unfair to Lin Xiaoyu.

Meng Jiefang couldn't help but cast his eyes on Lin Xiaoyu.

But he didn't know that when Yan Yu asked these men to help him find the child, they didn't come at all!

Seeing that everyone was silent, Zhang Gulin also gritted his teeth.

"I don't dare to say that there is 100% water here, but I am a scientific worker, I don't engage in feudal superstition, I support Teacher Yan Yu's point of view, dismantle the statue, dig it up!"
