Chapter 6: Escape (Part II)

As for why the search and rescue team has not been able to enter until now, this thing is really evil.

In fact, the search and rescue team did not go in, and after the police filed a case, they immediately sent a search and rescue team to Grimace Mountain, and joined forces with another archaeological team to go down to the cave. But the evil thing is that both teams lost contact with the ground soon after.

The left-behind personnel waited for a full day, and they never came out again. Seem...... The two teams seemed to have evaporated out of thin air, and no news came out.

The people on the ground realized that something was wrong, and the next day they sent the news back and asked for support, and the relevant departments also realized that this was no longer something they could handle, so they immediately applied for the armed police force to take over the search and rescue work. The armed police quickly accepted the rescue application and dispatched a heavily armed search and rescue team on the same day. And this armed police squad is the subordinate unit of Major Li who is in the ward at the moment.

The armed police team, led by a second lieutenant, rushed to Guimian Ridge non-stop to join the original search and rescue team, the archaeological team, and the team led by Professor Liao, an archaeological expert and an archaeologist, who arrived later. In order to prevent further accidents, this time everyone made more adequate preparations under Professor Liao's analysis and suggestions, and the next day, this fully armed armed police team went down to the cave alone to carry out a search and rescue operation.

However, it was chilling that not long after entering the cave, the armed police team encountered the exact same situation as the previous two teams - they lost contact with the ground team and disappeared, never to be seen again.

No one knows why the three teams disappeared, or what happened to them in the cave. It stands to reason that with the equipment and experience of this armed police team, even if they encounter great dangers, they are enough to protect themselves, but in fact, they just disappeared silently, and no news came out again.

This time the matter is really big, the three teams plus several exploration students who disappeared before, a total of more than 20 people have disappeared and their whereabouts have become a mystery, and this matter even alarmed the military region. Professor Liao, Professor Zhao and Major Li, who came in person afterwards, didn't know what to do, people must be saved, but how to save them? Send someone down again? What if they disappear again, and who can afford to take the responsibility?

At this time, Professor Liao made a suggestion, that is, to enter through the exit where Cao Mianmian and Zhu Xiao escaped, and there might be an unexpected breakthrough. But the location of that exit is only known to Cao Mianmian, so there is this scene in the hospital now.

However, of course, it is impossible to say these things to Cao Mianmian, in fact, even Officer Chen himself does not know very clearly, but he just guesses some outlines.

There was a brief silence in the ward, and Officer Chen didn't know what to say comfortingly.

It was Cao's father who was the first to speak, and asked hesitantly: "Officer Chen, is there any news from those children?" ”

The two officers looked at each other, and Officer Chen sighed and shook his head.

Father Cao said with a gloomy expression: "Alas, I hope these children don't have an accident, otherwise I really don't know how to face their parents." ”

Officer Chen patted him on the shoulder and said with relief: "This matter has nothing to do with Miss Cao, it is also a big fate for her to escape, you don't have a psychological burden." ”

Cao's father smiled bitterly, although he also knew that if those missing students really couldn't be found, his own daughter would not be responsible. But others don't think so, people lose their children, and they are grief-stricken, they must find someone to vent to, and Cao Mianmian and Zhu Xiao, who have experienced nine deaths and finally escaped, will naturally become the targets of those people's attacks. Father Cao can understand, but he is afraid that he will be the same in an extreme mood. Why can your daughter escape, and my child will die? Why?

Other people's children can't die, but their own children can't die.

Human nature is selfish, and the phrase "Dead Friends Don't Die Poor" is a good interpretation of human nature.

Officer Chen glanced at Cao Mianmian, who was still curled up in the corner of the bed without the slightest reaction, and asked, "Mr. Cao, we came here this time because we have something to ask Miss Cao, I don't know if it's inconvenient?" ”

Father Cao looked at his haggard and trance-like daughter distressedly, sighed, and nodded silently.

Officer Chen walked over to the bed and whispered, "Miss Cao." ”

Cao Mianmian's empty eyes finally had a hint of agility, and he slowly raised his head to look at Officer Chen.

"Sorry to bother again." Officer Chen said apologetically.

Cao Mianmian still looked at him with a blank expression.

Officer Chen continued: "That's right, according to the information you provided, we organized a search and rescue team to rush to Ghost Face Mountain, and entered the mountainside from the place where you went down to carry out search and rescue work. But ......"

Officer Chen paused, seemed a little embarrassed, looked back at the two professors and Major Li, sighed before continuing: "But due to some special reasons, the search and rescue work cannot be carried out smoothly. So we're here to ask for your help. ”

Cao Mianmian silently withdrew her gaze and lowered her head again, still not responding.

"Ahem, ahem." Professor Liao coughed dryly twice, signaled to Officer Chen's next words, and after receiving Officer Chen's response, he stepped forward and said, "Miss Cao, we are here this time to find out about the situation in the cave. And the exit you found...... If you can, I hope you can help us find that exit...... Miss Cao? ”

Professor Liao was halfway through his words, and found that Cao Mianmian had been looking at the sheets directly, and there was no reaction from beginning to end, so he couldn't help but call her. But Cao Mianmian still didn't respond, as if he couldn't hear his voice at all.

Professor Liao felt helpless and looked at Professor Zhao for help. Professor Zhao, a professor of archaeology, thought for a moment and said, "Miss Cao, I heard that you found an ancient tomb in the cave, didn't you?" ”

"Tomb ......" Cao Mianmian muttered, his eyes were confused, as if he remembered something. It was a long time before she looked up at Professor Zhao and nodded her head slightly.

Professor Liao couldn't help but smile bitterly, he didn't respond to her for a long time, why did Professor Zhao respond as soon as he mentioned the tomb?

Professor Zhao said, "Did you see that tomb with your own eyes?" ”

After that, there was another silence in the ward. Everyone looked at Cao Mianmian quietly, and waited for a long time before seeing Cao Mianmian gently shake his head twice.

Professor Zhao frowned and said, "You didn't see the tomb?" ”

Cao Mianmian shook his head again.

Professor Zhao frowned and said, "Can you make it clearer?" I don't quite understand what you mean. ”

Cao Mianmian slowly raised her head to look at Professor Zhao, and there was nothing called soul in her empty eyes, as if only a numb body was still gasping here.

Cao Mianmian's numb eyes quickly withdrew from Professor Zhao, and he looked at the sheets again, hugging his knees in silence.

Just when Professor Zhao was waiting a little impatiently, Cao Mianmian said a word at the right time, although her voice was very soft, so light that it was almost inaudible, but everyone in this room heard it clearly. I only heard her mutter: "Xiao Zhi said...... It turned out that we had been in the tomb all along. When she said this, Cao Mianmian's eyes moved slightly, and she seemed to have a trace of smart light. I couldn't help but think of Xiao Zhi's hysterical appearance at that time, how helpless and desperate he was at that time. Cao Mianmian could only silently watch, watch, and panic, but he couldn't give him any help. On the contrary, it was Xiao Zhi, even in such a desperate predicament, he still gritted his teeth and insisted on taking her and Zhu Xiao through the last stretch of the road. And then...... It's like a moth to a fire that turns to ashes, and no trace of him can be found.

Thinking of Xiao Zhi's final ending, Cao Mianmian's eyes unconsciously became more moist.

That fool, who has already escaped, why did he run back again?

Cao Mianmian lowered her head and bit her lip tightly, so tight that she was about to bite her lips and teeth. The pain in the lips is heart-wrenching, but it is far less than the pain in the heart. That invisible heart, as if a piece had been cut off by a knife, was heart-rending and painful, so painful that people couldn't breathe.

Xiao Zhi is a fool......

Incorrigible stupid!

Hey, I found the previous chapter, and the name of the city of Cheng (ouch) was automatically turned into two letters of CD. Is there such a function as automatic modification at the starting point now? Terrible.
