The next morning, it was the same group of people as yesterday, except that Ah Yi was missing.
After everyone waited for a while, A-Yi arrived late, bringing with her a message: "Miss, Young Master Lin Ning has arrived! He's outside."
She had just arrived when she discovered that Lin Ning was also there, looking for Qiu Hu, so she brought him along.
"Lin Ning? Why is he here?" But then she thought about it and it seemed reasonable. "Let him come over."
Lin Ning followed A Yi in, and only then did she realize there were several other people inside.
"Lin Ning, what brings you here?"
"I went to look for you last night, but you weren't there. I was wondering if you had gone back to Lake Creek Island, so I followed you here!" "Have you found him?"
"No, I'm just about to go look for it," Qiu Hu told him truthfully.
"Okay, can I help? After all, he's my brother."
Just as Qiu Hu was about to agree, Ning Yizhan stopped him and asked, "Is he trustworthy?"
"Yes, they're trustworthy, it's alright." Qiu Hu knew that Lin Ning's family was still trustworthy; otherwise, her parents wouldn't have entrusted Zhao Shi to them in the first place.
Ning Yizhan then remained silent, tacitly allowing him to join the group.
Everyone was fully prepared and ready to go. When they arrived at the tunnel, Lin Ning was surprised. "Go this way?"
“Yes, you don’t have to climb in; you can just wait for us outside,” Ning Yizhan replied.
"No, I was just asking. I can do it." Lin Ning believed he could climb in.
Following yesterday's route, the group arrived at the woods and split into several groups, each armed with a map, to begin their search.
The dense forest and the incessant chirping of birds truly frightened Lin Ning. Lin Ning wanted to follow Qiu Hu, but Ning Yizhan stopped him, saying, "Young Master Lin, we can stay here. You should go and follow someone else!"
"One more person means one more pair of eyes, Mr. Ning, you mind that?"
"I don't mind, besides, finding talent is the most important thing right now."
"..."
Ning Yizhan had already pulled Qiu Hu away, and Lin Ning watched their backs as they walked away silently.
"Why are you saying that? It's fine for him to be with us!"
“I don’t like him, and really, having him around wouldn’t make a difference, plus I don’t really trust him.”
"Why? He's fine. Zhao Shi has always lived in his house and there's never been a problem." Qiu Hu didn't know what he was suspecting.
“He likes you!” Ning Yizhan looked at the oblivious woman in front of him.
"...That can't be!"
"That's him. You have to trust me, it's a man's intuition. Stay away from him from now on," Ning Yizhan advised.
"Okay, okay, whatever you say goes," Qiu Hu said, knowing the situation was right. If he didn't agree soon, Ning Yizhan would probably start nagging.
They continued walking until they reached the sea. "There was nowhere left to go. Where could we possibly be?"
Ning Yizhan observed the surroundings. Further ahead was a cliff. "Have you noticed that there are fewer trees and fewer birdsong here?"
Qiu Hu followed his words and observed, and it was indeed so, but she wondered, "But what does this prove?"
"How about we look around here?" Ning Yizhan suggested.
“Okay,” Qiu Hu followed behind him, asking his own question, “You think it’s around here? Why?”
“Because this place is different from the woods,” he guessed, “so it wouldn’t hurt to look around.”
The view here is expansive, with hardly any weeds, and in front of you is the boundless sea.
In another direction, Qian and Yi were also searching.
"Qian, do you think they'll stay here? They've lived in the forest for so many years with nothing. Won't they turn into cavemen?"
"It can't be that bad. You should hurry up and look for it. Don't waste time and don't miss any places."
Listening to his businesslike tone, A-Yi found him utterly boring, "...A-Qian, why are you like a block of wood every day? Can't you even chat?"
"No time for chatting, business is more important," he said, then headed off into the denser woods. A-Yi, listening to the seemingly endless bird calls, followed closely behind him. "Wait for me! Why does this place feel so eerie!"
Ah Qian then slowed down.
In another direction, Zhou Jue led Chang Tingfeng and Lin Ning, who had just followed.
Zhou Jue, holding the map, said, "This direction leads to the exit, but I have a feeling it won't be this way!"
“I think so too, but just in case, we should still look for him,” Chang Tingfeng agreed with Zhou Jue’s opinion. “I wonder what’s going on with Brother Zhan!”
“They’re so smart, if they have a clue, they’ll definitely find it.” Zhou Jue had complete confidence in his boss.
"Zhou Jue, the boss isn't around, so everyone's licking his boots like this!" He glanced at Lin Ning, who hadn't said a word, and asked, "Hey bro, what brought you here?"
"The person I'm looking for is my younger brother."
"Oh, your brother? He's coming! Hurry up and find him quickly."
Ning Yizhan and Qiu Hu also couldn't find a breakthrough. After searching again and again, the two finally sat down to rest. Only the bottom of the cliff remained unsearched. "Why don't we go down and look for it? That's the only place we haven't searched yet!"
"Below the cliff? Are you sure?" But she felt that her parents' skills didn't seem that good.
How will you know if you don't try?
"OK".
After the two had rested enough, they walked to the edge of the cliff. Ning Yizhan glanced at it and said, "It's quite high, be careful."
Ning Yizhan went down first, and Qiu Hu followed in his footsteps, climbing down the cliff. They were shocked to discover that the bottom of the cliff was very close to the sea; if the wind was strong, they might drown.
As she walked forward, what did she see?
