Chapter 438: Someone is missing in the village again? - After the real daughter's mind was read, her personality collapsed
"Someone's missing again?"
Gu Xizhi and the others no longer had the mood to chat.
Let Wang Hua watch the fire here, while Gu Xizhi, Zhang Qi and others walked towards the crowd.
There were five or six adults in front of them who saw them and walked towards them.
Several people have gone missing in the village recently. Everyone remembered that someone had fallen off the cliff, so when they couldn't find the person anywhere else, they all ran to the mountain.
Zhang Qi and his companions had been in the mountains for two days and had already met several people from the village.
People in the village also know them.
When they saw Zhang Qi, one of them said, "Xiao Zhang, did you see a little boy about ten years old on the mountain today?
He was quite white and plump, with a round face, and he was wearing a school uniform. ”
Zhang Qi shook his head: "I didn't see it."
Those people went to look elsewhere in disappointment.
"I heard that the people who got lost in the village were all adults, but I didn't expect that now there are even children."
"And I heard that because several people had gone missing recently, the villagers raised funds to install a lot of surveillance cameras, but I didn't expect that these cameras still couldn't capture anything."
They did not stay in the mountain all the time during these two days. They went down the mountain several times to buy water, drinks and snacks, and to charge their power banks.
I heard a lot of things about the village from the villagers.
Life in the village has indeed improved a lot in recent years, but everyone still retains their previous simplicity.
Just as Li Shuangshuang said before, the villagers in the village usually live in peace, and there are no disputes between people. Everyone thinks that the money can be saved, and there is no point in installing surveillance.
On the contrary, I feel that if surveillance cameras are really installed in the village, they will have no privacy at all.
In the beginning, there were only surveillance cameras at the entrance of the village and a few crowded places in the village.
After these things happened, everyone's ideas were turned upside down.
Almost every alley is now equipped with surveillance cameras.
They even searched the mountains that they rarely went to and several directions at the foot of the mountains.
It can be said that even if a chicken is lost in the village, no matter where the chicken goes, even if it has left the village, it can be checked in the surveillance.
But now a living person is missing, and nothing was found during surveillance.
"I'm afraid these guys are not ordinary criminals. Some of them are geniuses in anti-detection, which allowed them to successfully avoid all cameras when committing crimes.
Or someone who is very good at using computers hacked all the surveillance cameras and implanted some fake images created by AI or other technologies, making it impossible for people to tell that the images are fake with the naked eye. "
"Otherwise, it would be impossible to capture the person so seamlessly."
"These are our conclusions after two days here, but we have no idea what is going on in either of these two areas. All we can do is catch some pheasants here and wait for you to come."
When Zhang Qi and his friends decided to come over, they even naively thought that if they happened to meet the person behind the scenes catching someone, they would definitely be able to capture the person with their skills.
They came here full of confidence, but they didn't expect that they could only vent their strength on the mountain.
"They all called the police, who came several times. I heard there are still a few police officers guarding the village."
"Look, the police are following them. Sister Zhi, if you have any questions, you can go ask him.
But don't hold out any hope. I've talked to the policeman, and they can't find out anything except that a few people are missing in the village. They're not even sure if these people had an accident in the mountains or were kidnapped."
"Even though we all believe that the missing people were taken away, there is no evidence."
"When I followed the villagers to the police station, I heard the police there say that there might be wild animals in the mountains. Maybe someone went up the mountain and encountered a wild animal and had an accident."
Gu Xizhi looked over and saw two people in police uniforms following them.
She did not go forward to disturb them.
She is somewhat self-aware. She is just a child to adults. If she really goes up to them to talk, they probably think she is playing and will say to her, "Little friend, stop playing."
She also believed that Zhang Qi and his team had been here for two days and should have found out everything they could.
Gu Xizhi did not go forward to find the two policemen, but the two policemen came back to find them.
"Open flames are strictly prohibited on the mountain. You guys should put out the fire quickly and then get down the mountain immediately.
Recently, people have heard the sound of wild animals in the mountains. It is dangerous for you to stay here. "
***
Gu Xizhi and his friends packed up their things and returned to Li Shuangshuang's house.
Li Shuangshuang's family has lived in the city in recent years and has not taken good care of the house in the village, so it is still an old house.
Fortunately, they came back to attend the wedding during the National Day and stayed at home for two days, so the house was cleaned up fairly well.
They don't need to spend extra time cleaning.
When Li Shuang's grandparents learned that she had returned and it was time for dinner, they were afraid that she would have nothing to eat, so they brought a lot of food from home for them.
By the way, I asked Li Shuangshuang about Li's father's current situation.
I heard from Li Shuangshuang that Mr. Li's condition is stable now and he is waiting in the ward to recover slowly.
Finally, there was a little smile on their tired faces.
"Grandpa, is there any news about my eldest cousin?"
Grandpa Li sighed: "No."
"It's okay. Sometimes no news is the best news. I'm sure my eldest cousin is safe now."
"Well, you guys eat first. Grandpa will go back home first. If you need anything, come get it at home."
Recently, his son and granddaughter have all had accidents one after another. Grandpa Li, who is over 80 years old, is exhausted and has no energy to take care of Gu Xizhi and the other children.
After telling Li Shuangshuang a few words to come to them if she had any problems, she went back first.
"Li Shuangshuang, what did the police say about the sound of wild animals? Are there wild animals in your village?"
When the police said this to them, Gu Xizhi wanted to ask.
But the police were busy looking for people at that time, and they also had to pack up and go down the mountain, so they forgot about this matter.
Zhang Qi frowned and said, "Probably not. There are only pheasants and rabbits on the mountain. The most poisonous ones are a few snakes. We stayed on the mountain for two nights and didn't hear any sound from wild animals."
"The wild beasts they were talking about were probably from decades ago. Now, except for the northeast, there is no way wild beasts can appear in ordinary mountains."
Wen Nuo was standing nearby, looking puzzled: "Why are there no wild animals now? When I was abroad, I would occasionally see black bears outside the yard."
"Isn't it normal to have wild animals in this sparsely populated mountain?"
