Is there really a hole?

On the cliff, Shen Ting and others heard the voices of the team members below and were surprised and happy.

No one expected that the discovery would be made so quickly.

Soon, the rappelling team member said again on the intercom:

“Although the cave entrance is hidden, it looks quite large. Now it looks like it’s more than half a person’s height.

I'm only about ten meters away from the cave entrance."

Shen Ting quickly reminded:

"be safe.

If the cave is really related to the missing case, there may be a trap near the entrance.

The three players around here, cheer up."

"good!"

"receive!"

"Know!"

The other team members on the cliff were nervous and excited.

"I didn't expect to find something new so soon."

"Although it took a while, the search went quite smoothly."

Xiong Beibei looked at Shen Ting's expression and said happily:

“It looks like it’s settled.

It happened to be within the suspected area identified by Captain Shen, and it was also a well-hidden cliff cave.

It must be related to this disappearance case."

The other police officers around also nodded.

They briefly scanned the area circled by Shen Ting in the afternoon.

Most of the more conspicuous areas have been checked, but nothing has been found, so the place involved in the case can only be a relatively hidden place.

And the cliff cave is obviously such a place.

Team Leader Shen's eyesight is still as good as ever!

Just at this moment!

The voice of the rappelling team came again from the intercom:

“Team Leader Shen, I’ve entered this cliff cave.

There is indeed space inside, and it’s quite large!”

Listening to the voice on the intercom, Shen Ting's face showed no joy, but a slight frown.

Because it went so smoothly!

According to his speculation, if that place was really the location involved in the crime, it should not be so easy for outsiders to enter.

He immediately looked at the tablet, which showed the camera footage carried by the rappelling team.

The space in this cliff cave is indeed not small.

Moreover, it is obviously not naturally formed.

There are many traces of artificial excavation inside.

More importantly, there are traces of human life.

There are earthen stoves made of loess, black charcoal left over from burning, weathered and rotten firewood and wooden frames.

Even the water containers were broken clay jars.

Chen Ting also found the source of the unusual sound that Xu Xinyi had discovered.

In a corner of the cliff cave, there is a black pot with its bottom facing upwards.

There was rainwater dripping from the top of the cave from time to time, just dripping onto the bottom of the pot, making a sound.

"This cave is very spacious. If we squeeze in, eight or ten people should be able to live here."

“However, it looks like no one has lived here or visited here for a long time.

The earthen stove inside was covered with dust."

“And there’s nothing modern here, so this cave must be quite ancient.

It must be a place where people in ancient times took refuge and hid."

"The key point is, there doesn't seem to be any clues related to this disappearance in the cave."

Xiong Beibei stared at the tablet screen with wide eyes:

"Did you find the wrong place this time?"

He twisted Shen Ting's arm, then winked and said:

"Hey, that's rare!

Even our great Detective Shen has his moments of failure."

Xu Xinyi, who was standing next to him, was obviously also a little surprised by the scene in the cave.

After all, she was the one who discovered this clue in the first place.

She was naturally a little biased, hoping to find clues in it.

In particular, when the rappelling team found a cave on the cliff, she really thought they had found a clue.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a false alarm in the end.

The members of the task force were somewhat disappointed with their findings in the cliff cave.

However, the rappelling team's surprised voice suddenly rang out from the intercom:

“Hey, there seems to be a passage here.

Team leader, I want to go inside and take a look."

Everyone on the cliff turned their heads to look at the tablet again.

In the camera, in the innermost corner of the cave, there is a small path extending into the distance.

It is very narrow and a person can barely pass through by leaning sideways.

And it’s dark and twisty!

A strong flashlight can only barely illuminate the corner two or three meters away.

"You can go in and take a look."

Shen Ting said on the intercom:

"But please be careful and put your own safety first."

"good!"

"Don't worry, Team Leader!"

The four people in the cliff cave entered the narrow passage.

Even through the video, Shen Ting and others could feel that the passage was indeed tortuous.

Basically, you have to turn in different directions within one or two meters.

Moreover, some places are extremely narrow, and you have to lean sideways, tighten your stomach, and squeeze hard to barely get through.

The area above the passage is basically opaque, with some areas being high and some being low.

Occasionally, there is rain, which seems to seep in from the gaps and drip from the sky.

It took us half an hour to move slowly in the long passage.

The four people who came down by rope were all a little anxious.

They were basically certain that this passage, like the cliff cave outside, was mostly naturally formed, with only some local areas appearing to have been artificially excavated.

The key is!

Several people judged that the passage was unlikely to be the location involved in the case.

Their original idea was that the passage might not be long and lead to some spacious area.

But at the moment, that's clearly unlikely.

Because the passage is too long, we still haven't found the end.

Furthermore, many places are too narrow and are not suitable for transporting corpses or items involved in the case.

The only advantage is its concealment.
