The first one caught by Chen Xiao and Xiao Qing was actually the duo of Xu Ershao and Jin Buhuan...
Xu Ershao's hiding method was very creative. He actually prepared a piece of cloth, and one side of the cloth was painted with a layer of blue-black, just like the color of the mountain rocks. In such a dark wilderness, with only the faint light of a flashlight, Mr. Xu squatted at the foot of the hillside wearing this piece of cloth, his body curled up into a ball - if you didn't look carefully, you might have thought it was just a patch on the roadside. Just a rock.
However, Xiao Qing's keen ears and eyes were able to identify Xu Ershao at a glance.
"Okay, okay, I give up!" Xu Ershao threw the cloth aside angrily.
He was indeed very depressed... He originally wanted to be in a group with Baicai - such a piece of cloth was also prepared. The cloth was not big, and it was just enough for two people to barely cover themselves. In this way, if they wanted to hide, the two of them would be able to hide. They have to squeeze together tightly... Hehe, plus the moon is dark and the wind is high, a man and a woman are squeezed under a piece of cloth, then...
What a pity, what a pity! !
Xu Ershao was annoyed and even stepped hard on the cloth.
"Yi? Where is Jin Buhuan?" Chen Xiao looked at Xu Ershao and said with a smile: "You can't commit a foul. According to the rules of the game, two companions in a group cannot be too far apart."
Xu Ershao touched his chin and smiled furtively.
"Hmph, there's no need to look for it, the other one is here too." Xiao Qing said lightly, walked to a nearby tree, and suddenly raised her legs, using a whirlwind to sweep away the fallen leaves...
boom!
The whole tree suddenly shook violently under Xiao Qing's leg! Then, with a plop, a black shadow fell from the tree trunk and hit the grass.
Jin Buhuan screamed in pain, stumbled up, rubbed his waist, and shouted: "Xiao Qing, don't be so cruel."
Then he glared at Xu Ershao: "It's all you! I said that piece of rag was useless, you had to cover it and squat on the roadside! Look, if you hadn't been discovered first, they wouldn't have guessed that I was nearby. !”
Xu Ershao stared back: "Bah! Do you think I am willing to team up with you? Alas, I have been preparing for this opportunity for a long time..."
The second group caught were Yaya and Baicai.
Baicai was very honest and didn't use his invisibility ability, and the two girls were very uncreative and hid in a pile of grass.
As a result, Chen Xiao walked all the way and just shouted deliberately: "I heard from Xiao Xu that there may be snakes in the grass on this island."
As a result, Baicai screamed in the distance and jumped out of the grass.
Yaya, on the other hand, still had some unfinished thoughts. She looked at Chen Xiao with a confused expression: "Ah? Is this the end?"
At this moment, less than twenty minutes have passed, which is half of the allotted time, but two-thirds of the task has been completed. In the end, only Monica and Lu Xiaoxiao are left.
However, the result was unexpected...
Twenty minutes later, Chen Xiao and Xiao Qing walked through almost the entire forest, but could not find a single person!
Even the bottom of the hillside was carefully checked, and Chen Xiao even went to the lake to circle around.
But Lu Xiaoxiao and Monica were hiding somewhere.
"Yi, I didn't expect that these two women are the best at hiding." Xu Ershao scratched his scalp and laughed: "Okay, the time has come. Even if Chen Xiao and Xiao Qing lose this time, those two girls Call out and we can play the next round of the game." He was thinking about how he could be grouped with Baicai in the next round as he wished.
But the problem arises.
Lu Xiaoxiao and Monica never showed up!
"Call." Jin Buhuan said, as if he wanted to start the next round as soon as possible.
Xu Ershao took out his mobile phone, but after dialing the number... He frowned: "Yi? Why is it turned off?"
"Shut down your phone? Have both of you turned off your phone?" Chen Xiao frowned.
"Listen." Second Young Master Xu handed the phone to Chen Xiao. Sure enough, after calling twice more, both Lu Xiaoxiao and Monica turned off their phones.
Everyone felt vaguely uneasy, but Xu Ershao still smiled and said: "Maybe the two women are very cunning, and they are worried that when they are hiding, Chen Xiao and Xiao Qing will call - as soon as the phone rings, their location will be exposed."
After a pause, he smiled and said: "A few of us spread out and shouted loudly everywhere, saying that the game was over. They heard it and came back naturally."
No one objected, and soon the six young people went in different directions, some to the woods, some to the lake, and some to the surroundings of the villa.
From far and near, everyone shouted.
But after another twenty minutes, everyone returned to the place one after another - Lu Xiaoxiao and Monica still didn't come back!
Now, even the most optimistic Mr. Xu became a little nervous.
"Is there going to be any accident?" Baicai was a little worried. Although I don't really like Second Young Master Xu surrounding Monica with his attentiveness, but... after all, there is no hatred towards each other.
"Is there any tree hole or hole in the ground on this island? Could the two girls accidentally fall in?" Jin Buhuan thought of a possibility.
"But if you fall into a hole, you will call for help." Xu Ershao's expression became serious: "Moreover, this place has been developed by the company, and if there are any dangerous caves, they will be filled up. .”
"..." Everyone looked at each other, but Chen Xiao said in a deep voice: "Look! Keep looking!"
He was the first to pick up a flashlight and ran quickly into the depths of the woods again.
Xu Ershao was also a little nervous, so he called the staff on the island.
There are eleven staff members on the island: a manager, six waiters, a plumber, a staff member responsible for driving the yacht, and two security guards.
As soon as they heard that Mr. Xu's good friend was lost on the island, everyone was very nervous. Everyone took out flashlights and began to search the island like a dragnet.
This island is not big, and the straight-line distance from the east to the west of the island does not take more than twenty-five minutes to walk. If you run, you can cross it in ten minutes.
But a group of people searched for a full hour, and when it was almost twelve o'clock in the evening, there was still no trace!
It was as if Lu Xiaoxiao and Monica disappeared from the island out of thin air!
Everyone gathered again on the lawn next to the villa. At Chen Xiao's suggestion, everyone explained the route they were looking for...
"Wait a minute..." Chen Xiao suddenly frowned: "Where is Xiao Jin? What if the gold is not exchanged?"
When he spoke like this, everyone suddenly realized that in the chaotic scene, no one even noticed that one person was missing!
The gold is not exchanged, and it is gone! !
In an instant, the scene suddenly became silent! Everyone's face looked a little weird.
At twelve o'clock in the evening, at this time, a dark cloud came quietly from the sky and slowly blocked the moonlight. The night wind blew gently, and there was a rustling sound of leaves being blown in the woods.
Everyone stood together, you looked at me, I looked at you, everyone's face was a little weird, and their eyes showed more or less uneasiness!
"Is there a map of the island?" Chen Xiao looked at the manager: "When it was first developed, there must have been drawings, right?"
The manager was already sweating: "Yes! There is a drawing... in my office, I'll get it!"
The manager turned and ran towards the villa area. Chen Xiao turned to look at the boatman again: "Have you seen it on the dock? Where is the yacht? Are people hiding on the yacht secretly?"
"No." The boatman was very sure: "I've seen the yacht, and it's not very big. If someone is hiding, you can definitely see it... Moreover, we've been calling for a long time, even if they hide in the yacht, they can't. There is no reason not to speak out..."
"Chen Xiao, did you accidentally fall into the lake?" Baicai thought of a possibility.
"No way." Xu Ershao replied: "The lakeshore around here is shoal, and the water is very shallow. Unless it is more than ten meters away from the shore, the water can reach the depth of a person's waist... There is no reason for them to take a dip just for a game. Into the water.”
At this time, Xu Ershao had already dialed Jin Buhuan's number, but after a moment, he put down the phone and looked a little ugly: "Xiao Jin's phone... is also turned off!"
Shut down
Chen Xiao, Xiao Qing and others all looked gloomy.
Because before setting off to look for Monica Lu Xiaoxiao, everyone made an agreement to keep their mobile phones switched on! And they also checked the battery levels of their respective mobile phones!
At this time, there was no reason for Xiao Jin to turn off his phone!
"Chen Xiao... I have an uneasy feeling." Xiao Qing quietly pulled Chen Xiao's clothes.
Chen Xiao's heart moved and he glanced at Xiao Qing.
In fact, he also had a vague premonition in his heart - this premonition seemed to be similar to the previous times when he was in danger. His heart was heavy, and he always felt as if something was going to happen, and there seemed to be some danger quietly lurking. nearby!
