The next day, Ye Huanyan took Chen Yin up the mountain from the South Gate Pier and began to conduct a thorough search.
Gu Liu assigned 20 people to her, all of whom were usually trained security guards of the villa. Compared to the professional bodyguards outside, they were no worse.
"Brother Gu Liu said that there are wild boars in the mountain, so he asked me to be careful."
"Don't worry. Before the wild boar gets close to you, those people will beat it down. You can carry the wild boar back to eat it tonight."
Ye Huanyan held a special scanner in her hand and pushed aside the very lush grass while answering Chen Yin's various questions casually.
It was Chen Yin's first time coming to the Four Seasons Villa, so she was inevitably curious. Due to the low pressure, she didn't talk much.
Ye Huanyan didn't want her to be worried with her, so she always maintained a calm look in front of her, as if Gu Sinian's disappearance in the villa was just a normal thing.
And all the people in the villa behaved the same in front of Ji Xiaoyue.
In order to comfort Ji Xiaoyue, when they came out in the morning, Wen Yi even told a lie. She said that the island was big, so it wasn't a big deal to be trapped in the mountain every few days. It was just that Gu Sinian wasn't a child, so this kind of thing was relatively rare. She also said that the longest time Gu Sinian was trapped in the mountain when he was a child was a week, and nothing happened to him.
She didn't know how much Ji Xiaoyue understood, but when they separated in front of the gate, Ye Huanyan still felt that she was absent-minded.
Chen Yin stood on the hillside and looked into the distance. "It's been so cold recently. The wild boars and the like should be hibernating."
"There are volcanoes nearby, and there are many hot springs below. The season here is not the same as outside, and some places haven't reached the time of hibernation yet."
"Didn't they say that the West Gate doesn't go out to sea? Why is there a boat docked there? "
Chen Yin shaded her eyes with her hand. Her eyesight had always been better than others. Looking down from the hillside, she saw a small boat on the beach at the west gate, rocking in the waves.
She didn't hear a response for a long time. She turned around and didn't know when Ye Huanyan had left with the rest of the group.
Chen Yin shouted anxiously, "Wait for me!"
He hurriedly chased after her. In the cave of the West Coast, the cold air was oppressive, and the sound of water dripping could be heard continuously.
The clanking sound of the iron chains reverberated in the cave, the sound was deafening.
Gu Sinian's mouth was taped, but he still had amazing strength.
After the men in black were pushed and staggered, one of them got up from the ground while gasping for breath. "Where's the medicine you brought? Give him an injection. "
"Miss said not to hurt him."
"It's just an injection. It won't get in the way. He won't be addicted. If he behaves, we can get him safely away."
Another man hesitated for a long time. He glanced at the man who was still struggling in the water prison and finally nodded.
"Okay, go ahead."
After a muffled groan, Gu Sinian fell into a state of confusion. The strength in his limbs was almost instantly depleted. He could only be carried out of the cave by two men and transported to a speedboat.
The speedboat parted the sea in the night, and the waves crashed as it moved towards the small island in the distance.
After a whole day of searching, they didn't find a single clue.
Gu Liu looked at the map that was almost filled with pentagrams, and his face was full of worry. "There's only the West Coast left to search."
Ye Huanyan glanced at the only blank area on the map, the West Coast, and frowned.
"Why aren't we searching the West Coast?"
Chen Yin's voice suddenly interrupted.
Ye Huanyan was slightly stunned. He remembered that when they talked about the West Coast last night, Chen Yin wasn't present. He patiently explained, "There's only one gatekeeper, Danna. The beach is undeveloped. There's no sand, only muddy roads. The hillside is full of bushes. It's difficult to go in or out, so my brother has no reason to go there."
"No one?"
Chen Yin touched his chin thoughtfully. "But I saw a boat on the beach in the afternoon on the hillside. It seemed to be a speedboat. Is it Danna's boat?"
Ye Huanyan's face stiffened. "What did you say?"
Seeing that everyone's eyes suddenly fell on her, Chen Ying was so scared that her eyes narrowed. "What … what's wrong? I … did I say something wrong? "
Danna was in her eighties this year. How could she drive a speedboat?
There was indeed something wrong with the West Coast.
When Ye Huanyan and Ji Xiaoyue arrived, Gu Liu had already found the hidden cave. On the walls of the cave, there were candles that had just been extinguished. The wax was still warm.
"Young Master stayed here before."
Gu Liu handed a gun in his hand to Ji Xiaoyue.
Ji Xiaoyue exclaimed, "It's Si Nian's gun."
Standing at the entrance of the cave, it was already brightly lit by the people who had rushed over. Gu Ling was also among them. After looking around outside, he walked into the cave.
Gu Liu squatted down to check the footprints on the road leading to the beach.
"They should have just left in the evening. The footprints are still very fresh. If it's past high tide, you won't be able to see them."
"Why is there a cave here?"
Ye Huanyan looked at the dilapidated iron door in disbelief.
"It should have been left here by the previous owner."
Gu Ling walked out of the cave, a trace of worry on his weathered face. "This is a water prison. It should be a place used to imprison slaves. I don't know how many generations of owners there were, but this place was abandoned. The West Coast has been a place where slaves lived for hundreds of years. It's located in a remote area. When I bought this island back then, I had the intention to develop the West Coast. But at that time, you were coincidentally in the country and were taken away from the hospital. After that, I didn't have the mood to do anything and just left it abandoned."
"…"
"Someone took advantage of this opportunity."
Gu Ling's tone was full of frustration.
Ye Huanyan quickly comforted him. "Dad, this isn't your fault. We still don't know who trapped my brother here. If someone really wanted to, they would have dug out a cave even if there wasn't one."
"Sir, we've brought Danna here."
As they spoke, Gu Liu's men had already escorted an old lady to the entrance of the cave. They pushed her very roughly onto the muddy beach. The old lady let out a muffled groan and lay motionless on the ground.
"When we arrived, she was erasing the footage on the beach. Only the footage of those people leaving with Young Master was saved."
"Danna, why did you do this?"
Gu Ling stood in front of him with a gloomy expression. "What are you unhappy about? Why did you harm my son? "
Danna was an old lady with a head of silver hair. She trembled as she raised her head and stared at Gu Ling for a long time. "Ptui …"
Suddenly, he spat at Gu Heng. His eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed in fluent English, "Gu Heng, you're a piece of trash. It's not just your son. I want to see your wife, your daughter, and your daughter-in-law die with my own eyes. After they die, they'll go to hell just like you."
