Early in the morning, Yang Mo was awakened by Chen Jue's scream. He frowned and shouted: "What are you making a fuss about? I didn't know there was a patient next to me!"
At this time, Chen Jue looked shocked and said in a panic: "The map... the map is missing!"
"What!" Yang Mo realized that something was good, and ran forward in three steps and two steps at a time. He saw that the package had been turned around in a mess. He counted it carefully and found that nothing was missing, except for the old yellowed map. Gone.
"How do I see that!" Yang Mo was angry and loudly blamed Chen Juelai: "Did he steal that thing from his father! If he is discovered, he will be dead!"
Chen Jue also looked apologetic and apologized repeatedly, "I can't make a mistake, I can't make a mistake! He originally thought that the people in the town were simple and there would be no thieves, and he carefully put the map in his backpack before going to bed. How could I know if it was stolen inside?"
"Wait!" Yang Mo realized something was right, tilted his head and said, "Why did the thief just steal the map? He just stole the map, obviously he wanted to stop them from finding Longnu Pond, and there is one person who knows their purpose..."
"Lao Bao!" Chen Jue finally came to his senses, stood up and walked out, "Go find him and beg him to come back!"
"Save it!" Yang Mo said from the side, "Mr. Bao obviously doesn't want them to find Longnvtan. Do I think he will give it to me?"
"What should we do?" Chen Jue walked back and forth anxiously. Yang Mo felt dizzy and felt his head hurt again.
Yang Mo was also anxious. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't come up with an idea. He had better say: "Please don't... let's talk to Mr. Bao?"
"Okay! Go find him now!" Chen Jue seriously denied that he meant what he said. He grabbed his raincoat and ran out. By the time Yang Mo came to his senses, he had already run away.
"That man is so stupid!" Yang Mo scolded: "He said he was going to talk, but he didn't do it now. If I wait for him to come back and talk, I will die! Do I know where he is now?"
It was useless to say that now. Yang Mo chased him to the door with his legs and feet, and saw the heavy rain in the sky, but Chen Jue's figure was nowhere to be seen. He himself was injured, how could he dare to get wet in the rain again. Yang Mo looked at the door for a while, thinking that Chen Jue might be back soon, so he went to lie down. Little did he know at this time that Chen Jue was about to encounter the most unforgettable experience in his life, and they almost never saw each other again.
In the heavy rain, Chen Jue ran far away before he remembered that he didn't know where Mr. Bao was now. He hesitated whether to go back, but when he thought that he would be laughed at by Yang Mo when he went back, he finally gritted his teeth and continued walking east. Seeing that he was about to walk to the other end of the town, Chen Jue recalled what Mr. Bao said last night and guessed that Mr. Bao was taking care of Granny Jiang, so he walked to the hut at the outermost part of the town.
When he walked to the door of the hut, Chen Jue didn't see Mr. Bao, but an old woman's face suddenly appeared in the window. Chen Jue was startled at first, and then realized that it was the Granny Jiang mentioned yesterday. When Granny Jiang saw Chen Jue, she was stunned and murmured: "Isn't it really weird? Two outsiders came to the town."
Chen Jue heard that Granny Jiang's shut-up tone was not as crazy as Yang Mo and Mr. Bao said, so she asked carefully: "Are you Granny Jiang?"
Grandma Jiang perked up when she heard this and said in surprise: "I recognize him? Then I won't let him out soon?"
Chen Jue refused in embarrassment: "If Mr. Bao locked you up there, he wouldn't treat you well. He can't..."
"Is it good for him?" Granny Jiang laughed strangely, and the laughter was unspeakably harsh and unpleasant. "He asked if it was for his own good that he should be released instead of trapping him there to die!"
Chen Jue didn't want to argue with Granny Jiang on that topic, so she asked, "Do you know where Mr. Bao went?"
Granny Jiang repeated her old trick and asked Chen Jue to move her legs: "I will come closer and he will tell me."
Chen Jue had heard about Yang Mo's mistake for a long time, but he took a few steps back. Seeing this, Granny Jiang knew that the wrong party was on guard, so she put forward a condition: "I will let him out, and he will take me to find him!"
Feeling that Granny Jiang had a treacherous personality, Chen Jue did not dare to agree to the wrong party's conditions, so she asked Yuanji to go away, "If he doesn't want to go find him by yourself."
Granny Jiang became impatient and shouted loudly to Chen Jue, which made him step up and soon walked into the forest.
Chen Jue didn't know how far he had walked. When Zingdong came back, he could no longer hear Granny Jiang's voice. It was then that he realized that he had walked into the mountains. The woods were shivering in the storm, and he could hear the sound of rising waves in his ears.
"Wrong!" Chen Jue suddenly recalled yesterday's story and murmured: "Mr. Bao said that the residents of the town make a living by fishing, so it must not be far from the sea. And the map marked it, Dragon Girl Is the pond on the seaside or on the mountain... He probably knows the location of the town, which means that the Dragon Girl Pond is on that mountain!"
Thinking of that, Chen Jue became excited and walked quickly in the direction indicated by the map based on his memory. The original purpose had long been forgotten. It has to be said that Chen Jue is worthy of being regarded as a top student at Yanqing University. His memory is surprisingly good, and with some luck, he actually found the path leading to Longnu Pond.
Chen Jue walked along the path in the mountain, and saw that the trees in front of him became sparse, and it seemed like it was flat land. He climbed on a small slope and looked east, and the Dragon Girl Pond finally appeared in front of him in the rain. Chen Jue was so happy that he accidentally fell eastward. When he climbed up the slope again and looked forward, he found that something had changed in the Dragon Girl Pond.
Everything that happened in the Dragon Girl Pond made Chen Jue's eyes widen, and his expression became indescribably horrified. He tiptoed up the slope and ran towards the original road. Perhaps he was running too hastily, but Chen Jue lost his footing and fell again, then rolled all the way to Shandong. Chen Jue wanted to stop his falling. As he turned around, he saw a cliff in front of him.
The screams were drowned out by the heavy rain, and it was as if nothing had happened.
The sky was gloomy, and Yang Mo was resting alone in his room. The sound of rain hitting the window sill sounded extremely boring, like hypnotic music. Yang Mo had been awakened by Chen Jue before, but now that there was no one around, he felt sleepy again. He yawned and fell asleep again.
Guo An was lying on the sofa in the office, snoring like thunder. After being on duty all morning, and having not had a good rest before, even if he was extremely determined, he couldn't hold on any longer, so he simply fell asleep in the duty room. He didn't know how long he had slept. Guo An smacked his lips, as if he felt thirsty. He closed his eyes and touched the table next to him. After groping for a while, Guo An felt something good and opened his eyes suddenly.
In the field of vision is not the empty duty room, but a beautiful-faced, petite woman—Pang Jiaojiao!
Pang Jiaojiao was holding Dongba and walking beside the sofa. Her face seemed a little unhappy. Following her gaze, she saw that the ball of her leg was placed on Pang Jiaojiao's thigh. Guo An was a little confused, but he thought those legs looked familiar.
"How long will I be ready to touch you?" Pang Jiaojiao said coldly.
That sentence made Guo An wake up completely. He stood up and said awkwardly: "Sorry... he... he fell asleep."
"Coal-coal system."
When Guo An heard those words, he suspected that he was in a dream. Pang Jiaojiao had always been unforgiving, so why did he forgive so readily that time. He looked over at Pang Jiaojiao and found that his counterpart was also staring at him, with an indescribable emotion in his eyes. Guo An frowned, touched his face and asked, "Is there something on his face?"
Pang Jiaojiao shook her head and continued to watch without shutting up. Guo An felt uncomfortable all over and stood up, moving his muscles to avoid Pang Jiaojiao's gaze. But even though he was carrying Pang Jiaojiao wrongly, Guo An still felt like two sets of eyes piercing his back like needlepoints.
Guo An finally couldn't stand it anymore, turned around and asked, "I... have something to do with him?"
"No!" Pang Jiaojiao looked away, thought for a moment, and then looked at Guo An, "It counts."
Guo Yianchao felt that the woman in front of him was unfathomable, so he asked patiently: "What's the matter?"
Pang Jiaojiao glanced outside the door to make sure no one was there, then lowered her voice and said, "That unsolved case twenty years ago..."
When Guo An heard the first few words, he couldn't help but hold his breath.
