At six in the morning, Zhao Yu woke up from his sleeping bag.
His sleep could only be described as miserable.
It was too cold!
Even though he had a house to protect him and a sleeping bag to keep him warm, Zhao Yu still felt a piercing cold!
Actually, the temperature outside was not below zero degrees Celsius, but Zhao Yu felt extremely cold for some reason.
At this moment, when he woke up in the morning and looked outside through the steamy window, he finally understood where his coldness came from!
It turned out that the coldness did not come from his body, but from his heart.
When he stared at the vast wasteland outside the window, his loneliness was magnified infinitely, making him feel cold.
At that moment, Bian Dong, who was sleeping in the same room as Zhao Yu, was still snoring in his sleeping bag. The young man was not a field agent, so he rarely suffered like this.
Phew …
Zhao Yu calmed himself down, and the first thing he did was to check his system interface.
Although it had been more than a day, the three words "Kun Gen Li" were still firmly occupying the hexagram area.
Unknowingly, when Zhao Yu looked at the three words carefully, he suddenly felt a sense of malevolence.
Tsk tsk …
What's going on?
Is it because it feels that something is wrong?
That's right …
Zhao Yu thought for a while and quickly figured out the answer. That's right, the reason why he felt that the hexagram was malevolent was because he was worried that something bad would happen to the missing exploration team!
Once the Kun hexagram appeared, someone would definitely die!
This was the conclusion of Zhao Yu's long-term experience. So, as time passed, he became more and more worried about the safety of the missing exploration team members.
He had promised Division Chief Jiao that he would try his best to save the hostages and his brother-in-law, Chu Peng, but … the case in front of him was obviously not as simple as he had imagined.
The night before, it was cold, so Zhao Yu was unable to survey the outside of the base, so he had to check every exploration team member's room.
It was indeed as described in the report. Except for the missing people, everything in the room was normal, as if they had really disappeared into thin air.
So many people, where did they go?
Oh ah …
Zhao Yu crawled out of his sleeping bag and stretched. Then, without eating or washing up, he put on his down jacket and went outside to survey the scene.
In the early morning of the plateau, the cold wind was still blowing.
Zhao Yu walked around and found that the ground was made of hard gravel. It was hard to leave any marks on such a terrain.
Along the way, he did find some tire pressure marks, but those marks were not very obvious and could not be used for evidence.
Moreover, since the incident, vehicles from many departments had passed by here, and the exploration team also had their own vehicles. Therefore, the probability of finding the whereabouts of the missing people was very low.
During this time, Zhao Yu also tried to use his own footprint recognition device, but it ended in failure.
"There must be a car!" Just as Zhao Yu was examining the traces, the female Tarstan officer named Anna suddenly appeared. She smiled sweetly and said to Zhao Yu, "Detective China, you're up early! How did you sleep last night? "
"Very bad," Zhao Yu replied. He then raised his head and asked, "What did you just say? What car? "
"I say, if criminals want to kidnap 12 people, they must have a suitable means of transportation!" Anna said. "It's a pity that we can't tell where their car came from or where it went!"
As she spoke, Zhao Yu noticed that Anna was holding a stack of documents in her hand.
"These are the work logs of the exploration team, as well as some other documents," Anna quickly explained. "I'm worried that there might be other reasons for the disappearance!"
"Yes, I've thought about this," Zhao Yu said. "Maybe it's not polite to say this, but to be honest, I think you should investigate the two Tarstan security guards.
"The kidnapping case was so clean, so it's very likely that they were working together!"
"I've already thought of that," Ana said bluntly. "I've already sent people to investigate, but … I'll also tell you the truth. Those two people were transferred from the Border Defense Department. They're the kind of people who have good ideas and can be trusted.
"Their wives and children are in Tashpian, the capital of Tarstan. I believe that they won't betray us so easily!
"But …" Ah Na still smiled sweetly and said, "I'll tell you the truth again. I also think that there may be people among the hostages with bad intentions.
That's why I got their work logs! "
"Are you serious? Do you think that they were doing geological prospecting and found some treasure? Then … "Zhao Yu shook his head." Your imagination is too rich! "
"I also hope that I'm the one with the rich imagination!" Ah Na curled her lips and said, "Because if I'm right, then these 12 people are really doomed!"
Hearing this, Zhao Yu's heart skipped a beat, and the ominous clouds in his heart rose again.
"So …" Zhao Yu said, pointing to the documents. "Did you find anything?"
"I haven't read it yet!" Anna said frankly. "Besides, my Chinese is still a little weak, so let my assistant read it!
Ah Na suddenly thought of something, then pointed to the direction of the camp and said, "You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Come with me to eat some of our lamb. I'm sure you'll like it! "
"Hey!" Zhao Yu grinned. "Aren't you tired of eating lamb so early in the morning?"
"Don't worry, there's lamb soup and steamed bread!"
"Oh, that's more like it …" Then, the two of them walked towards the camp. Zhao Yu could not help but say, "There's something I have to remind you. If it was really done by a mole, it could be from the food and drinking water. I encountered a similar case last time!"
"That's not necessary," Anna said. "Yesterday, Officer Lu sent someone to test it. There's nothing wrong with the food and water!"
"Oh, there's something else …" Zhao Yu said. "Have you checked all the personal belongings of the missing people? Especially their phones and computers, maybe there's something wrong with them? "
"We've checked all of them," Anna replied. "We checked everyone's phone numbers, emails, and chat records. There's nothing wrong with them!
From what I see, the biggest hope now is that the military has found something! Of course, "she pointed to the documents in her hand." And these work logs! "
…
Twenty minutes later, a bowl of steaming lamb soup went down Zhao Yu's stomach, making him feel very comfortable. The chill that had accumulated in his heart seemed to have dissipated.
"Police Officer Zhao, this is the map that you wanted. Come and have a look!" Then, Anna spread out a huge map in front of Zhao Yu and said, "This is the base of the exploration team. Within a radius of 100 kilometers, there are a total of 46 villages, five small cities, and two big cities.
Now, our military is focusing on searching those villages and small cities, while the two big cities have been handed over to the local police.
"But, let's be honest," Anna said, shaking her head. "If I were the kidnapper, I would never hide in such a place!"
She then added, "Either you go further, or you find a hidden cave and hide in it. That would be the most appropriate way!"
"I'm not exaggerating, but there are at least 100,000 caves on the Tauz Plateau!"
"Mm … These two big cities … Mm …" Zhao Yu looked at the map seriously and asked, "The one on the left seems to be the border of the country, right?"
"Yes," Anna replied, nodding. "Outside the border is Wakriya, an unaffiliated region. It's not a country!"
"Oh … It's Wakriya!" Zhao Yu suddenly realized. "No wonder those English letters look so familiar! Sigh … "
Zhao Yu didn't know what he was thinking, but when he heard the name Wakriya, he seemed to be touched by something.
However, at that moment, Lu Kaixuan suddenly walked in quickly from the outside. As soon as he entered the room, he knocked on the door anxiously and said to Zhao Yu and Anna,
