Chapter Thirty-eight Where is Dad going?

My heart sank first. The stranger has appeared. I want to confront him head-on and confront him!

Then, my heart full of tension and anxiety suddenly relaxed again-

The hand was afraid that I would fall again, so he immediately grabbed my wrist, pulled me forward, and hugged me gently!

He was a very familiar person. He knew how scared I was when I was running alone on this mountain. He freed up a hand to stroke my hair.

I breathed a sigh of relief, raised my head slightly, and saw the outline of his face with the flashlight falling to the ground and the hazy moonlight:

"Lin...Doctor Lin!"

"Um."

My heart was immediately completely occupied by ecstasy. Dr. Lin, who had been behind for a long time, actually came back by himself! How is this possible?! Or at a critical time when I need him so much?!

"Why are you here? Where have you been?" If he hadn't pressed me, I would have jumped up now!

"I came here, a very far away."

His answer was still so brief and calm, but in my ears, the words of Big Iceberg were already full of humanity, especially since there was an incredible relationship between him and me. My heart... is so comfortable!

A gust of wind blew, and a slight friction sound came from the leaves. I came back to my senses from the joy of reunion after a long time, looked at the grass behind me, and then looked at the somewhat unreal Doctor Lin, who appeared rashly, and asked strangely: "How did you find me just now?"

“‘sos’.”

The lanterns I learned and sold from Mr. Dong did indeed play a certain role, but I attracted my own people, but also strangers.

The stranger who was following me just now was not Dr. Lin, and the direction they appeared was not as good as the number.

I grabbed Dr. Lin's hand and turned around, and became alert. This person should be still nearby us!

Dr. Lin immediately saw my nervousness. He glanced around and asked in a low voice: "Where are the others?"

"I'm lost, there's a person I don't know hiding nearby!"

Dr. Lin blocked me with a searchlight with a more divergent light, illuminating the grass that I couldn't see clearly before - there was still nothing.

When I had Dr. Lin, I immediately became bolder and turned on the flashlight and shone it towards those shadowy places - no discovery was made!

The hairs on the back of my neck could not feel anyone's eyes at this moment. Could it be that the illusion I had on the way was really my illusion? Was the movement I heard was emitted by the mountain wind? Or was it that at the time when I met with Dr. Lin just now, the stranger ran away when he saw that the situation was not good.

At this time, the moon can already provide lighting for the mountains at night. The mountain wind makes the fog thinner and my field of vision becomes wider.

After a few minutes of searching, it is confirmed that there are only two people in the nearby area, Dr. Lin and I.

Although I was still a little uneasy, at least I had a companion. Moreover, Dr. Lin took out my dear fn-57 from the backpack behind me! These guns, ammunition and other things were hidden in our suitcases in the Qingmei Sister Hotel. Everyone drove from Beijing to Shaoxing so far. One of the reasons was that it was easier to carry weapons.

A day ago, when everyone followed the scissors into the mountain to find the legendary Si family, no one expected that they would stay for so long after they came in. We all thought that if we could negotiate, we would negotiate, and if we could not reach an agreement, we would leave and discuss it again! Who would have thought that everyone would not even have the opportunity to go down the mountain, so they would be lost in the cliffs in the mountains!

The little prince had previously considered that the Si family would probably check our luggage and determine our identity, so he didn't bring any guns, ammunition, mobile phones, etc. to the mountain.

Now that Dr. Lin can bring back all the things we left behind, this means that he has met Sister Qingmei and he knows everything he should know in the early stage.

Although the shooting skills are not very good, with the pistol on my body, I feel a lot more confident. The situation is very urgent, and my teammates are still in a state of uncertainty in life and death. I don’t have time to reconcile with Dr. Lin, so I can only hurriedly repeat the strange situation of the five people in the team missing one by one to him.

Originally, I wanted to go down the mountain to find a helper, but now this helper is delivered to my door, and it is my own. This is really God helping me!

Dr. Lin listened carefully as he walked. He raised his eyebrows slightly several times, and his calm expression was a little surprised. The twists and turns of this story were really a bit too bizarre. It would take him a long time to digest it after listening.

I followed the knot tied on the ground and easily returned to the original path. The closer I got to the cliff, the more anxious I felt, and my speech became faster. When I saw the cliff mouth was right in front, my voice was hoarse!

"So, that 'Ghost Road Leader' pointed to the cliff, the third brother of the Si family went down, and then the rest of the team were also below now?"

"Yes, that's the case! Master Dong asked me to wait until dawn, but I really couldn't stay alone, and I didn't dare to climb down by myself..." I nodded. Although it was a bit confusing, fortunately, Dr. Lin's idea was very clear.

"Are you afraid of this?" Dr. Lin checked the three ropes and asked me inexplicably.

"I'm afraid... Of course I'm afraid!" I think everyone is so familiar with each other, and I'm still the little dad and brother-in-law. I'm not embarrassed in front of him, and answered honestly. "I've been scared to tears! This place is old and mysterious, and it seems that there are still many ghosts! If Master Dong and the others hadn't taken me to the mountain, I would have run back to Yu Village long ago!"

Dr. Lin thought for a while and took out the remaining rope from the backpack left by Master Dong: "I'm going down too. If you're really scared, wait until dawn."

I felt very disappointed all of a sudden. I came again. Why did everyone in the team say such things to me? I am not a logistics company!

When I thought of the erratic stranger in the mountains and the situation I had just encountered before Dr. Lin in the dark, I was cruel and snatched the rope from his hand and said, "I will never stay here alone. If you go, I will go too!"

Dr. Lin squatted down and tightened his trousers. He didn't seem to be surprised at my answer. He naturally found the rope head and began to tie up the fourth and fifth ropes that fell into the cliff.

Sure enough, will the last two people in the team disappear together?

After everything was ready, Dr. Lin checked the place where he could use it with flashlight, and he lowered his heel to the edge of the cliff without much hesitation.

I almost didn't keep up with his speed, and I was so busy that I tied the descent device and stood side by side with him.

From this position, you can clearly feel that the wet and cold mist was blowing upwards under the cliff, just like an oversized refrigeration air conditioner installed below, which made me unable to stop shaking.

It’s too late to regret it now. Dr. Lin made a gesture of “ok” and leaned back, then fell into the first step in the cliff.

I had to bite the bullet and follow. His movements were done in one go, unlike my repeated struggles and hesitation, and they were particularly quick and straightforward. Although I knew that his usual style was like this, why did he have so few questions?

He fell behind for so long before he came back. From the ten minutes of the story just now, he could only know the general process of a matter. As a team member who was about to integrate into this incident, he must have had many doubts! If it were me, I would have asked curiously, how could I make such a decisive decision after listening to the story so calmly?

I think he seems to be much less curious about Yuling than us, as if he already knows many things, and I always feel that he knows more than us, the parties involved!

The initial descent process must be attentive and careful, because we need to adapt to the sudden suspension of our bodies, and our previous companions disappeared here without warning. We have to be wary of whether there will be any man-eating beasts rushing out here.

But after a few minutes I relaxed my vigilance, because no matter how it looked, it was just an ordinary cliff: cracked cracks, weathered gravel, tenaciously growing saplings and insects. But if you want to say that detail is dangerous, it is really impossible to see.

"Doctor Lin, what did you do in the past few weeks? Why didn't you contact us?" I couldn't hold back my doubts and began to ask him.

"I said that I went to a far place and sent someone."

"Sister Xiaoya? How is she doing now? Is the child in my belly cleaned up?" When I thought of this pitiful and sad woman, I felt very uncomfortable, and I only dared to say her name carefully.

"I have no idea!"

Don’t know? Dr. Lin’s answer surprised me. His always plain tone was filled with anger. It was indeed because of what happened to her that he delayed his return trip!

"Why don't you know? Shouldn't you take her to abortion, treat her, and then meet her father?"

"Well, I just handed over Xiaoya to her father. Since then, I have never seen her again."

The way Dr. Lin expressed this sentence made me feel a little strange. What does it mean, "I have never seen her again since then?" Things will not be that simple. After the Arctic, Gao Xiaoya was already a responsibility for him. Could it be that he just handed it over to her father and then took off the burden in his heart?
