"Okay. ”

Xu Fan nodded, and immediately walked out of the conference room with Zhang Shicun.

All the way downstairs, soon, I saw a jeep driving this way not far away.

After approaching the two men, the jeep stopped with a brake.

"Get in the car. ”

It can be seen that all the people sitting in the car are Zhang Shicun's comrades-in-arms.

Obviously, like Xu Fan, they don't want to see Zhang Shicun take on these alone.

After Zhang Shicun and Xu Fan got into the car, the jeep drove again and drove directly out of the military region.

There is a short distance from the headquarters of the military region to the border area where the Thorn Squad had an accident.

It would be past seven o'clock, and by the time the group arrived at their destination, it was already about nine-thirty p.m.

The jeep had already driven into the mountain forest, and the mountain forest was extremely dark at night, and a group of people were just relying on the high-beam car to distinguish the road conditions ahead.

Fortunately, this group of people are all experienced special soldiers, otherwise, in this environment, they would have overturned.

Stumbling, the jeep soon stopped.

From the location marked on the map, it can be seen that this will reach the point where the Thorn Squad lost contact that day.

"Get out of the car. ”

When he arrived at his destination, it was time to start investigating the situation, Xu Fan said hello, led the way, and jumped out of the jeep directly.

Stepping on the muddy ground where fallen leaves were piled up, Xu Fan squinted and looked around.

This area is a dense forest with no human footprint on the border, and it will be night and even more silent.

The chirping of insects and birds, plus the howl of beasts rippling in the distance from time to time, is all there is.

Xu Fan spread his divine sense, so he walked around and began to search for clues.

This dense forest area may seem ordinary, but in fact, it is the border connecting China and Myanmar.

Often, drug dealers want to cross through here and enter the territory of China.

Thorn Squad patrols here to stop this.

Now that the entire team is missing, but it is not the killer of the drug dealer, Xu Fan can't help but wonder what the group of them saw and caused such a big disaster.

"This ......"

Xu Fan walked in front of a big tree, and his fingers swept over the trunk of the tree, an extremely deep scratch.

The scratch almost cut off the nearly 100-year-old tree, and the cut was as smooth as a mirror, and it was definitely not caused by a bullet.

The internal strength is released externally, which once again confirms Xu Fan's previous thoughts.

The enemies encountered by the Thorn Squad were at least masters of the Innate Realm.

Following the direction of the scratch, Xu Fan would spread his divine sense and search forward.

Seven days have passed since the incident, and most of the evidence, such as footprints, is difficult to detect.

Not to mention, in order to cut off the clues, the other party also specially cleaned up the traces before leaving.

"Brother Xu Fan, it's really hard to find clues around here......

Zhang Shicun turned on a flashlight and walked over to Xu Fan.

It's really not that he discourages his enthusiasm, and in this neighborhood, he has searched ten times.

Everything that can be discovered, has already been discovered.

However, these clues left behind did not have much effect.

It's impossible to deduce who did the work on the Thorn Squad.

"Don't worry, there's always something missing. ”

Regarding Zhang Shicun's frustration, Xu Fan was not infected in any way, so he smiled slightly and walked forward.

"This?"

Zhang Shicun stood behind, and when he saw Xu Fan walking to the front, he directly pinched up a fallen leaf.

Can the leaves still be able to see the doorway?

The incomprehension in his heart made Zhang Shicun follow curiously.

"Brother Xu Fan, who are you?"

I couldn't figure out what Xu Fan was doing, Zhang Shicun asked curiously.

"Look at this leaf. ”

Xu Fan smiled, and handed the leaf in his hand to the other party.

"This ......"

Zhang Shicun took the leaf, and when he saw the situation above, his head swelled badly.

On the leaves, a small hole is scalded......

This is obviously burned by smoking, and even a little cigarette ash can be seen on it.

There are countless fallen leaves on the ground, what kind of ability did Xu Fan rely on to find such a fallen leaf?

This ability to investigate the details made Zhang Shicun feel admired and ashamed.

If Xu Fan hadn't come over, I'm afraid I wouldn't have found these leaves in my life.

Immediately after, Xu Fan found a few more leaves, which, like the previous ones, were all burned by cigarettes.

Zhang Shicun took these leaves and looked at Xu Fan.

What do these leaves say?

Xu Fan looked at Zhang Shicun and explained: "Although it was only one person who worked with the Thorn Squad, judging from the current situation, there must be more than one person. ”

This is where the incident took place, when they collided with the Thorn Squad, and a battle soon ensued.

Only one of them was sent, and the others were supposed to be waiting where they were.

Waiting impatiently, someone started smoking.

In order not to leave any clues, they even disposed of the cigarette butts on the ground afterwards.

But these leaves scattered by the wind were mixed with many fallen leaves, and they were in a hurry to evacuate, so naturally they had no time to deal with them.

Listening to Xu Fan's explanation, Zhang Shicun's scalp was numb.

That guy single-handedly took out the entire Thorn Squad, and now he has accomplices, so how difficult does this have to be?

"Don't worry, his accomplices, the strength shouldn't be too strong. ”

Looking at Zhang Shicun's sad look, Xu Fan comforted him.

If they were really all masters of the innate realm, it would be impossible for the Thorn Squad to escape that far.

"And this, you see. ”

It seemed that he had discovered something again, and seeing Xu Fan walking forward, Zhang Shicun hurriedly followed.

It can be seen that there is a mark on a big tree.

The marks weren't deep, and they looked like they had been whipped out.

"This ......"

Zhang Shicun recalled that he should have discovered this at the beginning.

But this trace doesn't explain the problem at all.

“......”

Xu Fan looked at Zhang Shicun's depressed look and couldn't help but shake his head.

"This is a whip, right?"

"Well, you shouldn't be wrong. ”

Hearing Xu Fan's inquiry, Zhang Shicun nodded in confirmation.

At this time, Xu Fan pointed to the traces of the whip and said, "Obviously, this whip was originally intended to whip people, but it landed on the tree after letting it dodge." ”

"This trace, you deduce, how tall is the person who was pumped?"

"This ......"

Zhang Shicun looked at the marks on the trunk of the tree, twisted his eyebrows and thought about it.

The height of the mark on the trunk of the tree is very low, and Zhang Shicun will simulate the action of whipping, and soon came up with the answer.

"Less than 1.5 meters, or even less......"

Hearing Zhang Shicun's answer, Xu Fan nodded.

"If it's your own, why use the whip?"

"This ......"

Another question came out, Zhang Shicun turned his head around, and said speculatively: "Could it be that their group of people is not companions, but escorting a group of people?"

"If you're so short, is it a child?"
