Chapter 190: One of the Men Were Captured
Wei Ting and Su Meng took out their phones and scanned their surroundings. They didn’t expect that it would be even wider down there. It didn’t look like it was dug out by hand, but was naturally formed instead.
There was also a gurgling underground river by the side. The water was so clear that one could see the bottom. There was nothing inside except for pebbles, and there was no sound when it flowed.
“There are traces of blood on the ground,” Wei Ting lowered his head and said in a deep voice while looking at the ground.
Hearing Wei Ting’s words, Su Meng also lowered her head to look. Sure enough, there was a small patch of blood where she had just stood. Although it was dry, it could be seen that it had just flowed not long ago.
“Could it be the person who disappeared?” Su Meng had a faint ominous premonition in her heart.
Wei Ting nodded and pointed in a direction. “It should be. Looking at the traces of blood, it should be in that direction.”
The two carefully walked in that direction. After walking for a long time, a light spot appeared in front of them. The closer they got, the brighter the surrounding, and the lower the wall above them. When they arrived at the light spot, Su Meng and Wei Ting were already about to bend their knees and walk out. It was a small hole, and people could climb out by lying down.
“Could he have gone out through this hole?” Su Meng was the first to climb out of the hole. Although there were weeds in front of the hole, they had all fallen down. It was obvious that someone had passed through here.
“Let’s go out and take a look first.” After Su Meng went out, Wei Ting followed closely behind her.
The two looked around. The trees here were lush, and the ground was full of weeds. There was no crop field, so they could tell at a glance that it was the back of the mountain.
“Do you have anything personal to him?” Su Meng turned her head and asked Wei Ting. If she had something that belonged to that person, she could try using the compass to find him.
Wei Ting shook his head. How could he have someone else’s personal belongings?
“If not, it will be a bit difficult. The mountain is so big. It’s impossible for the few of us to find them. We can’t shout loudly, or else we’ll alarm the people in the village. If that’s the case, since you’ve already collected the evidence, we might as well call the police and let them search the mountain.”
Su Meng had no better solution. After thinking for a long time, she could only come up with this solution.
Wei Ting squatted down and studied the direction of the collapse of the weeds. Then, he looked around and continued to look down.
“Did you find anything?” Su Meng asked him in confusion.
“Almost all of the weeds fell in one direction, and many of them were broken. This means that something was dragged out just now. It should be Ren Chi.” Wei Ting carefully looked at every detail. As expected… He saw some blood on the weeds not far from the entrance of the cave.
“Did Ren Chi see something? Did they drag Ren Chi away to silence him?” Su Meng felt more and more uneasy.
Wei Ting’s face was gloomy. Someone actually dared to abduct his people.
The trail was only a few dozen meters away. That person probably thought it was bad to drag people away, so they changed to carrying him on their back or carrying them on their shoulders.
“I’m not sure if it’s a rescue or a kill, but there’s a high probability that it’s malicious.” Wei Ting looked around. Suddenly, he saw something silver out of the corner of his eye.
He picked it up and took a look. It was a silver ring with a few keys hanging on it. There was a bit of blood on it. The keys were different, but they were all new and shiny. It seemed that the clues had finally appeared, but he did not know whose it was.
Su Meng took out the compass and tried to use the key to find the person, but the compass didn’t respond.
“This key is too new. It doesn’t have the aura of its owner. The compass can’t find it,” Su Meng said with a frown.
Wei Ting took back the key and looked at it carefully for a while. Then he said slowly, “Judging from the shape of the key, it shouldn’t be an ordinary lock. Let’s try it with this.”
“Okay, but I don’t know if Ren Chi is safe now. It seems that we can’t call the police blindly. Let’s look for him first.” Su Meng looked into the distance, but unfortunately, she couldn’t see anything.
“Okay.” Wei Ting responded and grabbed Su Meng’s arm and walked out. Originally, he just wanted to help Su Meng investigate the truth of that year. He didn’t want to do anything else. Now it seemed that these people were really bold and dared to do anything. There was no need for him to be polite.
Su Meng felt the anger from Wei Ting’s body, and she felt a little apologetic. After all, Wei Ting wanted to help her investigate the case, so his brother was caught. She had to think of a way.
“We can’t be exposed now. Why don’t we sneak into the village first? Once we see the murderer from this village, we can make him relax, and then we’ll have a chance to find the flaw. Why don’t you listen to me this time?”
“Okay.” Wei Ting didn’t stop. He didn’t even turn his head and directly agreed.
