Now that You Haoyu has been confirmed to be nearby, all Du You needs to do is to conduct a blanket search. Search every suspicious place.
The only places where people can be locked up are large and small warehouses standing on the banks of the river.
Some were locked, others were wide open. However, those rusty padlocks basically have no effect on Du You.
He broke into one place, didn't find the target, and then went to the next place.
And no matter how fast Du You is, this place has a vast territory, and there are several small rooms hidden in each warehouse. Half an hour later, still nothing.
Du You slowed down a little. After not finding any clues for such a long time, he couldn't help but wonder if he had missed something.
The next building is almost the most eye-catching place on the river bank.
It's ridiculously big, covering hundreds of square meters. The door was closed, but unlocked, and kicked open.
The two-meter-high gate opened in response to the sound, and swung open to both sides, making a creaking sound.
Perhaps it has been unused for many years, and as soon as the door is opened, a layer of dry dust blows in the face.
Du You walked in without changing his face.
The warehouse is very dark, there are not even windows to avoid direct sunlight. This may have previously been a place for storing fresh fish, with cooling equipment mounted on the ceiling. However, due to disrepair for a long time, it is no longer able to operate.
The only light is the moonlight that squeezes in through the open door. And even so, it was still dark.
The ground is thick with dust. Every time Du You walked, he made a shoe print.
There are many abandoned containers piled up in the spacious warehouse, which can't be seen at a glance. The surroundings are very quiet, the darkness is floating and sinking, only the sound of leather shoes stepping on the ground can be heard.
Then disappear. Everything returns to silence.
Du You stopped.
Are you not here? Not feeling popular.
Not intending to waste time, he turned around and walked outside. But at this moment, the body suddenly stopped.
There were footsteps outside, and someone was approaching.
Not Lane, because the rhythm of walking and light and heavy sounds are not similar.
The footsteps were getting closer. Then, a black figure stood still outside the door and looked in from the side of the door.
Five fingers wearing black leather gloves held onto the edge of the door, his light maroon eyes and hair curled up in the night, a little dim.
The man frowned.
"Here you are, brother."
Ryan watched Du You disappear in front of his eyes, and couldn't help being stunned for a few seconds. But he quickly shook his head and regained his composure.
Although there is no way to protect the daughter-in-law, but for the sake of efficiency. Perhaps it would be quicker to split up.
Since the daughter-in-law went to the west just now, he will search the east. If you can help your daughter-in-law find that person, you might even get a reward!
Although it was night, it did not delay Ryan from daydreaming.
After several announcements, he already had a certain understanding of the common sense of this world.
Searching is what the police should do.
Ryan stood at attention and saluted:
"Interpol Ryan, number 000. Now heading east, we must search for the hostages before midnight."
He raised his right hand: "Let's go!"
Then, it turned into a beast again, and rushed out like white lightning.
Now, it is more appropriate to call it a police dog than a policeman.
In the huge warehouse, there is still a lot of dust that cannot be dispersed.
Du You looked at the man standing at the door without any surprise on his face. Instead, as usual, expressionless: "Where is he?"
Qin Ge tilted his head: "Is this the first question?"
Du You walked towards the young man: "There is not much time left. Tell me the location, I have to teleport you all away."
Qin Ge didn't move, nor did he answer. It wasn't until Du You walked up to him that he smiled and said, "Aren't you curious about the reason?"
The reason is clear.
Even Du You already understood by this time.
"Even if you do this kind of thing, I won't go back with you."
You Haoyu was never the main cause. The reason why he doesn't want to go back to the last days has nothing to do with other people. It's just because he is cowardly and doesn't want to face the world full of blood and death.
Qin Ge was silent for a while, then said, "I know."
After a while, he showed a smile: "Brother, play a game with me at the end."
Du You didn't want to play.
Besides, now is not the time to play games.
He fixedly looked at the young man, then looked away and passed by.
He didn't take a few steps, but he heard a voice behind him: "There are still less than three hours."
Du You paused.
"Before zero o'clock, if those people can't be sent away, they will be sucked into the black hole." Qin Ge said, "Is that so."
Although it was confirming, it was not in a questioning tone.
"Without my help, there is absolutely no way for my brother to find him before midnight."
Qin Ge turned around and looked at Du You: "This game, if you win, I will tell you his position."
Du You turned around and looked at Qin Ge as well.
The two looked at each other. On the one hand, he was as quiet as a deep pool, but his eyes were full of emotions; on the other hand, he seemed to be smiling, but his smile was extremely cold.
Du You: "What game?"
Seeing his agreement, Qin Ge's expression became a little weird, but it was fleeting, as if it was just an illusion.
"hide and seek."
Qin Ge said, "It's a game I often played before. It's just that this time, my brother is the ghost."
When I was in the laboratory, apart from daily tests and physical examinations, there were basically no recreational activities.
For Du You, his greatest pleasure at that time was two things.
One is to sneak into the library and read the ancient world books collected by the teachers. The other thing is meditation.
As for the hide-and-seek that Qin Ge was talking about... It was not so much a game as it was because his younger brother was too pestering and disturbed his entertainment, so he made up such a reason to delay the other party's actions.
He hides from his younger brother, who is always looking for him.
But this time, Qin Ge wanted him to be a ghost.
Du You was speechless for a while, then replied: "Okay."
Hearing this, Qin Ge smiled: "Give me a time limit. If it takes too long, my brother may get impatient."
As he spoke, he raised his index finger and made a "1" gesture.
"10 minutes."
"If you can find me within 10 minutes, I'll give you the location of the man. If not..."
Qin Ge put down his hands: "Unless my brother wants to kill me, I won't say anything."
Du You: "..."
Du You: "I will find you."
Qin Ge was noncommittal, and smiled lightly: "Then brother, let's start counting down."
10 seconds countdown.
Du You turned his back and closed his eyes.
He knew Qin Ge's ability. Before zombification, the opponent's ability may be stronger than him. But not necessarily nowadays.
No matter how fast Qin Ge was, he couldn't beat him. The only problem is that it is impossible to determine the location of the other party.
However, ten seconds. The distance he can move within this time frame is limited, all he has to do is to search all the buildings within a few miles—within ten minutes.
The ten second countdown ends.
Du You opened his eyes.
There was no one around. The huge warehouse door was still shaking. Because it was moving too fast, a gust of wind blew up.
There is no one in the warehouse. And after turning his back just now, he felt the direction of movement—to the left.
Du You turned around and faced to the left. Then, Shunbu stepped out.
After these ten seconds, if Qin Ge still planned to move, he would definitely make a noise. If it is stationary, the range will not exceed a radius of one kilometer.
The mud on the banks of the river has become very wet due to the long-term beating of the waves. Easily leave footprints.
It's just that some marks could be seen on the ground at first, but they disappeared completely after that, probably because the other party had done some processing.
After a while, Du You stepped on the mud with his right foot, and slammed on the brakes to stop.
It's over.
Coming in this direction, I didn't see the shadow of the target. Maybe it changed direction halfway.
"..."
He closed his eyes again and felt the changes in the surrounding environment with his hearing.
Taotao white waves surged forward one after another, singing loudly; the air flowed in the night, forming a gust of wind, which brought the leaves to rub and rustle.
Then, the sound of the door opening. Almost inaudible.
Du You opened his eyes suddenly, and quickly moved towards the direction of the door ringing.
Under the high-speed movement, the surrounding scenery became a mass of black, as if several horizontal lines were drawn backwards.
Then, Du You stopped in front of a small warehouse.
The door was ajar and shook slightly. Because someone went in not long ago.
Du You walked in, and the space inside was very narrow compared to the big warehouse just now. A dim oil lamp hung above the head, and the dark light filled the entire space.
Can't hear breathing.
The skylight was wide open, and one could see the endless blackness of the sky.
There are many empty shelves in the room, and there are a lot of sundries in a mess. Du You glanced at it, but found nothing special. Seeing no one here, he was about to go out, when he caught a glimpse of a black unknown object from the corner of his eye, he suddenly paused.
Then, turn around and walk over.
That thing was piled up with other sundries in the warehouse, very inconspicuous. But Du You still recognized its owner.
——The extremely familiar black mask and peaked cap are just so lonely on the shelf.
He picked up these two things. I can't feel the temperature, it should have been a long time since I took it off.
If these two things are here, is You Haoyu also nearby
However, when I came here just now, I almost searched all the places. There should be no one else here.
Du You was about to put down the two things when he saw something fall from the hat. With a click, it fell lightly to the floor.
When I picked it up, I found it was a square object painted white.
Du You has lived in this world for a year, so of course he also recognizes what it is.
U disk.
Another glance at the sundries piled up on the folder, it is full of daily necessities and garbage. Logically speaking, this kind of electronic product shouldn't exist in this kind of place, let alone in You Haoyu's hat.
Did Qin Ge do it
Du You looked up at the skylight. He jumped up, grabbed the window sill with one hand, and was about to climb up, but accidentally knocked something down on the way. Before the thing fell, he reached out and hooked it in time.
This time without the system reminding him, he immediately realized what was in his hand.
Camera.
The appearance and model are exactly the same as those installed in your own home.
With no emotion on Du You's face, he crushed the camera with his bare hands and threw it on the ground. Then climb up to the roof.
There was also a layer of dust covering the roof. Therefore, when someone came up, the traces of being brushed off were particularly obvious.
At least one thing is certain, Qin Ge has been here. And didn't go too long, still around here.
Now, the specific coordinates are further narrowed down.
Du You jumped off the roof and searched for the nearest building.
A third of the ten minutes have passed.
Du You walked into one of the abandoned warehouses and couldn't help but pause.
Unlike other places where sundries are piled up everywhere, this place is very tidy, like a place where fishermen usually rest. Although it is not clean, but there are tables and stools, and a wooden bed.
There's even a laptop on the plank bed—out of place with the rest.
The screen light is dimmed.
Originally, there should be no delay, but Du You still walked over when he remembered the USB flash drive and camera in his hand. Crouch down and press the power button.
The screen lit up immediately, and it was just in a dormant state. There is no combination lock.
There are six different pictures displayed on the screen, reflecting different corners of the river bank. And every ten seconds, these pictures will be updated once, and then changed to other places.
Du You even saw a white shadow inside. Ryan didn't stay where he was, but ran around the buildings. The speed is too fast, and the white shadow is fleeting.
However, the location of Qin Ge or You Haoyu was not reflected.
Du You looked at it for a while, but didn't see why. Take out the U disk and insert it into the port.
In the next second, a pop-up window popped up in the center of the screen, asking whether to open the folder.
Du You operated the mouse and clicked in, and found a video inside. Look at the screenshot and it's pitch black.
Click on the video, the length is only 20 seconds.
—The palm in front of the camera moved away, and the person in the center of the frame was captured.
The man is sitting on a chair with his arms bound behind the back of the chair and his ankles clinging to the feet of the chair, tied with rope. Mouth covered with tape.
He lowered his head and wore a peaked cap. Appears to have lost consciousness.
Although the face cannot be seen, the light in the picture is also very dark. But it can be recognized that this person is You Haoyu.
Just looking at the exposed skin, there was no injury.
At this time, the camera seemed to be adjusted in angle, and then looked at an unusually handsome face.
After the man fixed the camera, he entered the screen and walked behind the young man.
Then, he gently placed the hands in black leather gloves on the shoulders of the person in front of him.
Du You frowned.
Suddenly, the lens was soaked in blood splashed out. But even though most of the picture is blurred, the cruel scene behind it can still be seen clearly.
The system turned pale with shock: [What's going on! ?]
Isn't Qin Ge going to play hide-and-seek with the host? The reward is to tell You Haoyu where it is. But watching this video, You Haoyu probably died completely, so what's the use of telling the location
20 seconds is over quickly.
The scene stopped at the moment when the chair rolled over and fell to the ground. The peaked cap fell off, stained with blood, rolled under the camera, and disappeared.
After a while, the screen turned black again.
Du You: "..."
He closed the computer.
