I had long since lost all trust in Yang Rui, but at this moment Bai Wei also came over and nodded solemnly beside us.
“Those people have indeed disappeared. Nobody knows where they went. We've already searched all the places they could have gone, but there's still no trace of them. Zhao Sihai, what do you think we should do?”
Bai Wei has been doing much better lately than when he first arrived on this deserted island; at least he's not as arrogant anymore. Seeing how serious he is, I no longer have any doubts.
And at that moment, I could see that the anxiety on his face was genuine.
When exactly did they go missing?
Bai Wei sighed and quickly said, "We were all gathered around this campfire, preparing to gather some food and cook something. After all, even if there is a polar night here, people still have to survive, and the most basic thing for survival is to eat. So they were taking turns gathering the seashells they had picked up on the beach. But when we looked up and were about to call our companions who were gathering seaweed, we found that they were gone."
Bai Wei was puzzled. He stood up and called out a few names, but no one answered.
I thought they might have gone to a more distant place to gather food. Anyway, the camp was right here, so even if they went a little further, they wouldn't get lost. So Bai Wei led the others back to the campfire to wait for them to return. He threw the things he had packed into the pot, but even after the pot boiled, they still hadn't returned. That's when I started to get worried.
Now the foreigners are making a fuss too. They told the translator that their people haven't arrived yet either.
We've known for a long time that these foreigners are actually very united; they've always been together.
Remembering their grief and despair when their companions died tragically, I knew these foreigners would never leave the group and go somewhere else.
Moreover, we are surrounded by dangers, and there is no sun. It's safe to say that if we leave this camp, there is a 90% chance of dying.
I don't believe anyone would joke about their own life.
Thinking about it this way, the foreigners became even more anxious.
Yang Rui immediately organized people to search the surrounding area, but after searching around, they found no trace of them, and even their footprints had disappeared.
Xu Wei leaned over and looked at us: "I wonder if they fell into the sea? And were eaten by some strange fish?"
Upon hearing Xu Wei's words, Yang Rui immediately shook his head: "They are all adults. If they really fell into the sea, how could they not make a sound at all? Besides, if it's possible for one person to fall into the sea, how could five people fall in together? Furthermore, the water at this beach is so shallow. Even someone who can't swim would not die silently like that, would they?"
Yang Rui's analysis is very accurate, and I don't believe that these people fell into the sea either.
Even if there are sharks on this beach, I don't believe they could have died so quietly.
Wang Ping's face had turned extremely grim. He cocked his gun and then turned to Bai Wei: "Quickly take a few men and let's go look again."
After hearing this, Bai Wei shook his head: "Don't bother looking anymore. We've already searched every possible place around here, and there's really nothing there."
"But what can we do? We can't just give up looking for people who have disappeared. If we don't look for them after they've vanished from this place, their chances of survival will be even slimmer!"
Yang Rui was very excited. I looked at his face and carefully examined his expression, but I couldn't find anything at all.
Furthermore, I don't believe Yang Rui could be so powerful as to kill so many people without leaving a single clue.
So Yang Rui probably didn't do anything.
Just as we were talking, I suddenly heard a foreign woman behind me scream. Then, the people inside the tent rushed out like madmen, which startled me.
I quickly reached out to protect Wang Xiaoxiao, who was pregnant, and pulled her aside. Only then did I notice that the foreign women were running out of there, yelling and screaming. They were muttering something, but they were speaking so fast that I couldn't understand a word they were saying, and since I don't understand any foreign languages, I couldn't understand them at all.
Standing next to me, Yang Rui's face immediately turned pale after hearing this. He turned around and went to the campfire, picked up the large machete we had made for him, and then immediately shouted to the crowd, "Quick, there are strange vines here, everyone stay away!"
After he finished speaking, almost everyone around him panicked instantly.
Fortunately, we had experienced so many life-and-death situations on this deserted island, so many men immediately formed a circle around the women.
I was still confused, not knowing what was going on, when suddenly the tent we had already set up collapsed, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Wang Xiaoxiao suddenly screamed again, her face turning deathly pale.
I reached out anxiously to help Wang Xiaoxiao, but then I suddenly heard Xu Wei, who was standing not far away, scream. Then I saw Xu Wei's body sway and she fell to the ground.
I tried to grab Wang Xiaoxiao with one hand to pull Xu Wei, but it was too late.
Xu Wei's body seemed to be pulled by something, and she quickly slipped into the woods.
Xiao Qiang, who was standing next to her, reacted very quickly and immediately reached out to grab Xu Wei. However, even this time, Xiao Qiang failed to grab Xu Wei. Xu Wei was quickly dragged to the side of the woods, and the speed was almost within a few seconds.
Xu Wei's screams and her desperate struggles triggered me. I immediately forgot about the large machete that Wang Xiaoxiao had thrown aside and rushed towards Xu Wei, who had already been dragged away.
But the speed was too fast when I was dragging Xu Wei's thing. Even when I used all my strength to rush to the edge, Xu Wei had already been dragged into the woods.
I felt like my head exploded, and after shouting, I quickly chased after Xu Wei.
