(October 10) countdown to the 81st day

Yao Xiaoyi withdrew from the previous temporary foothold and was immediately shocked in place.

Before leaving, she had cleverly camouflaged the place and enclosed the small area with strings, which were wrapped around several empty beer bottles standing upright, more than four or five centimeters above the instep of her feet, and if someone sneaked in, there would be some movement.

Under the night vision goggles, the bottles fell to the ground, one of them shattered, and the string was broken. The zipper of the backpack hidden on one side was unzipped and the snacks were scattered all over the place, but the rest of the bag was still there.

Apparently someone visited it at night.

Could it be that his whereabouts have been exposed? Who is this man? What is the purpose? Even if someone found out that she had entered the factory, it would be impossible for her to find her hiding place so quickly, right?

Yao Xiaoyi's heart tightened, and then she heard a slight sound, the sound was very soft, it seemed to be there, and she could vaguely judge that it came from outside the window.

Yao Xiaoyi remained silent, slowly squatting down, vigilantly staring at the hollow window.

The sound was getting closer and closer, as if someone had carefully stepped on a dead leaf.

Yao Xiaoyi kept her posture still, holding the night vision goggles with one hand, groping around on the ground with the other, and finally found a discarded iron rod, which she held firmly in her hand.

The sound finally stopped, and in a few moments, a vague shadow slowly rose from under the windowsill, and emerged in the shape of less than half a human head, revealing two black rumbling eyes.

Even through the night vision goggles, I couldn't see the general outline of the shadow, but I saw that the two eyes in the darkness turned from time to time, emitting a deep light, which was eerie and terrifying.

"Who?"

Yao Xiaoyi put the iron rod across her chest and got up suddenly.

"Meow!"

A terrible cry suddenly pierced the silent night sky, and the shadow lying on the windowsill suddenly flashed and disappeared quickly, and then there was a rapid sound of footsteps from the foot of the building.

It turned out to be a feral cat?!

Yao Xiaoyi rushed to the window with an arrow step, and just before he could see it, the shadow burrowed into an overgrown green belt behind the office building, only to see the weeds shake for a moment, and then quickly fell silent.

At the same time, with a thud, a figure slipped down the rope hanging from the second floor of the office building and slammed down. I vaguely heard the figure snorting softly, then got up, limped along the main road and rushed towards the back door of the factory.

Yao Xiaoyi finally understood the purpose of the rope, which turned out to be for the person on the second floor to escape. Judging from the conversation he just overheard, this person should be Brother Li in the mouth of his companion.

Why did this Brother Li abandon his companions and run away alone, did he discover himself, or did he have a premonition of some kind of great danger? Did you tell your companion that Brother Niu arranged for someone to come to pick you up?

It was also on this mobile phone, the mobile phone rang "Ding Dong" prompt, Yao Xiaoyi took out his mobile phone to check the surveillance video, and sure enough, he found that two police cars were passing through the monitoring point and coming in the direction of the arsenal, according to this speed, it will take less than 20 minutes to arrive.

It seems that the trap she designed at the fork in the road did not work, and the police have spotted her trick and are tracking her. However, could it be that Brother Li also knew that the police were coming, so he fled in a hurry?

didn't have time to think about it, Yao Xiaoyi quickly cleaned up the scene, rushed out of the workshop, and chased after the back door of the factory. Out of the back door, it is a narrow kilometer, stretching left and right. Underneath the roadbed is a river where water flows from left to right. On the other side is the same forest that I saw on the roof of the factory building before.

There is no longer the shadow of Brother Li at both ends of the road. The slope of the roadbed was overgrown with weeds, Yao Xiaoyi observed carefully, and found the traces of the expected weeds lodging, presumably Brother Li escaped to the other side by wading into the river.

Yao Xiaoyi slid into the river little by little along the slope of the roadbed, the river was unexpectedly cold, and she shivered. The speed of the water was also faster than she expected, and there was an undercurrent surging beneath the seemingly slow-flowing surface of the river. She fixed the night vision goggles on top of her head, and her backpack was as far as her chest, barely supporting her upper body, and she swam to the opposite shore with difficulty.

The rushing river took her off the intended route, and when she reached the opposite bank, she was a long way from the opposite shore perpendicular to the starting point. She climbed onto the riverbank, calculated the time difference, and judged that the straight-line distance between herself and Brother Li should be within a kilometer.

She roughly locked on to a position and plunged headlong into the dense woods.

The woods are overgrown with weeds and knee-high. She walked around the tall trees, one foot deep and one shallow, and hurried along the grass in the upper left. The sudden movement startled the birds, and they flew away from the treetops, flapping their wings and making an annoying noise.

Yao Xiaoyi stopped suddenly, and the noise of the birds might alarm Brother Li nearby. She crouched down, minimized movement, changed her route slightly, and continued on.

It was the beginning of October, and the fog in the woods had thickened, and a chill had hit, so she tightened her already soaked collar and continued on her way. After 10 minutes, she climbed a small hill. The hillside is about the size of a basketball court, surprisingly flat, because the trees are denser, sunlight rarely shines, and the ground is bare and there are no weeds.

According to the route and time, she speculated that she had rushed in front of Brother Li. The reason why he gave up the three accomplices of Brother Li who stayed in the factory and tracked down Brother Li was not only because the police were about to follow, but also because Brother Li was the most likely person to get close to Brother Niu. Judging from the conversation she overheard, Brother Niu will take action next, track and even capture Brother Li, and it is possible to find Brother Niu behind the scenes.

And this hillside will be an ideal place to intercept Brother Li.

After looking around the hillside through night vision goggles, she soon had a plan to trap her. She opened her backpack, took out a mask of several people, painted the mask with the help of a mobile phone flashlight, and then strung the mask on a rope and hid it in the woods.

She then moved a stone and rolled it down the other side of the hill, giving the illusion that someone was sliding down it. He took out another thick rope and tied a small pebble to one end, and after several attempts, he finally got one end of the rope around the high branch.

After making preparations, she found a few more stones and threw them in the direction where Brother Li might have come down the hillside. The stones alarmed several forest birds, flew away from the nest in a daze, panicked, and fled in all directions, while chirping angrily, alarming more birds to join the chaotic ranks.

The plan succeeded, Yao Xiaoyi cleaned up the footprints she had just left, sprinkled dead leaves, and tied the rope attached to the mask to the backpack. Finally, she sprayed pepper water all around, grabbed the thick rope, and hung pull-ups without touching the trunk with her feet.

Climbing up the branches, she put away the thick rope and took out her mobile phone to check the surveillance video. Footage recorded by surveillance equipment reserved for the abandoned workshop of the arsenal showed several police officers with hounds chasing her through the factory at a fast pace towards the back door, leaving her less than 20 minutes to evacuate.
