As Zhao Yu looked at the half-blind dog eating the beef jerky, he suddenly thought of a key question.
If Yang Wentao was hiding in the mine, then … what would he eat?
The mining area was barren and wild. There were very few wild fruits and vegetables, not to mention wild game! This guy couldn't be catching mice in the mine, right?
The day he ran away, he didn't have much money on him, so he couldn't have bought much.
Then …
So many days had passed, what would this guy eat?
Thinking about this, Zhao Yu had a feeling that even if Yang Wentao was hiding in the mining area, he couldn't be too far away from human settlements!
If he wanted to survive, he needed food and water, and he could only get them near towns or villages.
Then …
Zhao Yu turned on his phone and started looking at the map of the mining area that Peng Xin had sent him earlier in the day. He wanted to see which towns and villages were closer to the mining area in Yinpan Mountain.
Unexpectedly, according to the map, Yinpan Town, where he was now, was the closest town to the mining area. On the mountain east of the town, there were many mines!
Tsk tsk …
Interesting …
Zhao Yu thought that if he were Yang Wentao, he would probably choose such a place to escape. He would live in the mine during the day, and come to town at night to look for food and necessities …
"I hear the sound of the waves, standing in the middle of the city. I remember the determination in your tears, from the day you said you were willing … "
Listening to the song on the radio and looking at the half-blind dog, who had already finished eating the beef jerky and was looking at him, Zhao Yu felt that he should search the area carefully tomorrow!
Just as he made up his mind, the system in his head sent an ending notification. This time, Zhao Yu's adventure completion rate was seventy-three percent, and the system rewarded him with something called a signal booster. With this, he could increase the strength of his phone or other signals.
Sigh!
First the air detector, then the invisible GPS, and now a signal booster. "System, are you really worried that I'll get lost?"
Since the adventure was over, Zhao Yu didn't have the mood to think about anything else. He locked the car and went upstairs to sleep.
Before he went to sleep, Liu Xueshan called him, but Zhao Yu didn't pick up. He couldn't be bothered with the lazy Old Liu.
Although the hotel's environment was bad, the exhausted Zhao Yu slept until dawn.
According to his habit, he would smoke as soon as he woke up.
In the end, once the hexagram appeared, Zhao Yu's excitement was ignited!
"Gen Dui hexagram," the System introduced, "Gen Mountain Dui Marsh, there is a marsh between the mountains, the sun is bright and the moon is bright, the things are beautiful and the spirit of heaven, the smell of grinding."
Whoosh …
Seeing that he had gotten the "Gen" hexagram that he had been dreaming of so early in the morning, other than feeling lucky, he also felt that the hexagram that he had gotten that day might have something to do with his previous efforts!
Was it because my investigation was in the right direction that I got the "Gen" hexagram?
Since that's the case, I'll have to work hard on the case today. Maybe … I'll get a big reward! Hehehe …
Thinking of this, Zhao Yu quickly got up and washed up. He ate something in a hurry and started his investigation!
He first investigated the places that he had not been to last night, and then began to investigate the mining area behind the mountain. In order to not let go of any clues, he asked almost everyone he met, even the children who went to school.
Other than that, he also visited many old people and asked them about the situation of the mining area, and personally entered the mining area to search. The mining area was filled with caves of all sizes, like a maze. Zhao Yu did not dare to enter rashly. After investigating the cave entrance, he returned to the small town.
Just like that, Zhao Yu investigated until eight o 'clock at night, but he still did not make any progress.
Seeing that the night had completely enveloped the small town, Zhao Yu, who was unwilling to give up, suddenly had an almost ridiculous idea. He began to think that Yang Wentao was quite good-looking. Could he have found a hair salon girl and was hiding in one of the hair salons?
Should I go to one of those places to look? At the same time … I can also solve my physiological problems?
So, Zhao Yu walked around the small town with this idea in mind.
But Yinpan Town's poverty level was still beyond his imagination. He searched all kinds of shops in the small town. Although there were a few hair salons, they were all proper barber shops. The barbers were either old men or aunties.
As for the bath center, they were all real bathhouses. There was no fun to be had!
Zhao Yu could not help but feel disheartened. The day's adventure was about to end, but he had walked around the entire day and had not found anything!
He did not know if he was going in the wrong direction? Or had he missed something important? If Yang Wentao had really been hiding here, had no one seen him?
Zhao Yu could not think of any good ideas and could only drive back to the hotel.
Just as the car stopped, he saw the blind dog from the night before come out from behind the wall. Aiyo, Zhao Yu did not expect that the dog was not only blind in one eye, but also had a problem with one of its hind legs. It was actually limping!
Also, looking at the dog's skinny appearance, it was probably a stray that often went hungry.
Sigh!
Poor thing …
Zhao Yu sighed and got out of the car.
Although he had only given it food once, when the blind dog saw Zhao Yu, it still ran in front of him. It raised its head and looked at Zhao Yu pitifully. Its only eye was shining with a pitiful look.
The dog did not make a sound and did not block Zhao Yu's way. Zhao Yu saw this, but he could not move. He was wondering if there was anything on him that the dog could eat. At least give it a bite!
But the beef jerky had already been eaten, and he had nothing else to eat.
Zhao Yu looked around and saw that there was a small store next to the hotel that was still lit. He went in and bought a bunch of chicken legs and claws.
"Come … eat, eat …"
Zhao Yu tore open the packaging and started feeding the dog at the entrance of the hotel.
Once the blind dog saw the delicious food, it immediately opened its mouth wide and started chewing.
Zhao Yu also bought a few bottles of beer and squatted next to the blind dog to drink.
The dog ate meat, and the man drank …
As he drank, Zhao Yu could not help but think about the case again. The "Gen-Dui" hexagram had both a job and wealth! This hexagram was good, but why did it not come true?
I've been working hard on the case today, but I feel like I'm missing something. What … what am I missing? I've asked almost everyone in town. Could it be that Yang Wentao really hasn't been here?
Hmm …
Zhao Yu looked at the blind dog and thought of a ridiculous idea as if he was joking. "Yeah, since I've asked everyone in town, then … what about the dogs?
Could the dogs have seen Yang Wentao's real body?
I've heard that dogs have good noses. If I have Yang Wentao's scent, could the dogs help me find him?
Eh?
That's it!
Zhao Yu suddenly remembered that there were many professional police dogs in the police force. If he transferred them over, he might be able to find Yang Wentao!
Right!
Zhao Yu made up his mind and decided to call Peng Xin after finishing the can of beer.
Unexpectedly, before he finished his drink, Zhao Yu came up with another strange idea. Maybe it was because he had drunk too much, but he took out Yang Wentao's photo and handed it to the blind dog.
"Hey, I've already given you good food, you should help me too …" Zhao Yu was dizzy and started talking to the dog. "Let me see … have you seen this person before?"
Unexpectedly, after the photo was handed over, the blind dog actually stopped eating and used its only good eye to look at the photo.
"Woof! Woof! Woof! "
After looking at the photo for two seconds, the blind dog actually started circling around Zhao Yu and barked a few times. Then it dragged its crippled leg to an alley behind the hotel and kept nodding at Zhao Yu. It seemed that he wanted Zhao Yu to go with him!
"Aiyo, damn!
It can't be?
You're kidding … "
