Zhennanfang said, "How long does it take to go from the town to the village?" Wuga said, "What? Are you talking about walking?" Zhennanfang said, "Yes, walk." Wuga said, "That's far away, it's about three or four hours." Zhennanfang looked at the time, and it was only about five o'clock. He said, "Or don't stay in the town, just go to the village."

Wuga did not expect that the south of the town would propose to rush to the village overnight. He seemed to have no idea how to answer for a moment.

Zhennanfang smiled: "What's wrong? Are you afraid that we can't walk the night road?" Wuga also smiled: "I'm really afraid that you can't walk. That road is not easy to walk, and it's easy to get lost." Zhennanfang said: "It's okay, give it a try."

Gouchang Town looks very deserted. It was only 8 o'clock in the evening. Many shops on the street have closed, and only four or five shops are still open. Xiaohui said, "Find a place to park your car." Wuga said, "Stop at the town middle school, we have to pass there anyway." Zhennanfang stopped the car at the door of a shop. Xiaohui asked, "What are you going to buy?" Zhennanfang said, "Buy some gadgets."

After a while, Zhennanfang came back and carried a small bag of lollipops in his hand. Xiaohui smiled: "How old is the person who still eats lollipops?" Zhennanfang said: "Who stipulates that lollipops can only be eaten by children?" He said, while putting the candy into his travel backpack.

After parking the car at the town middle school, Wuga took them away from the town from a bumpy path and walked towards Huangtian Village. Originally, Xiaohui suggested finding a restaurant in the town to eat something before rushing, but unexpectedly, after missing the meal, the restaurants were already closed, so she had to buy some dry food to satisfy her hunger.

It took not long before I walked, the sky was dark, and there were no stars or moon in the sky. Except for the flashlight, the road was pitch black all around. The road was indeed not easy to walk, with pits and bumps. The most deadly road was paved with sand and stones. Some big stones hurt their feet.

Fortunately, Zhennanfang and Xiaohui were fully prepared, and both were wearing sportswear and sneakers, otherwise the night would be even more difficult. Wuga tried to help Zhennanfang and Xiaohui backpack several times, but they refused. Zhennanfang was because of vigilance. For some reason, he was always not at ease with Wuga. The specific reason he couldn't say was just a feeling. Xiaohui was kind-hearted. She was very good at her. Although the travel bag was not light, it was nothing to her, so she was unwilling to bother Wuga.

The flashlight was prepared in advance by Zhennanfang. Although Zhennanfang was not old, he was very meticulous. He prepared four strong light flashlights, all of which were electric shocks, and also prepared two headlights and two engineer shovels. At that time, Xiaohui laughed at him. It was not like investigating a case, but more like robbing a tomb.

Along the way, Wuga asked about the customs and habits of ethnic minorities in the south. He was particularly concerned about some funeral customs, including cave burials. Wuga spoke very carefully and could see that he was a relatively civilized person. Although his Mandarin was awkward, he still tried hard to communicate with them in his Mandarin.

The journey was very quiet, except for the occasional crow sound, the only sound of wind was left.

After walking for nearly two hours, Xiaohui couldn't help but ask, "Brother Wuga, how far is it?" Wuga said, "There is a mountain in front. Just after you turn it over, it should be another one and a half hours." Wuga's words made Xiaohui see hope, although they couldn't see if there was really a mountain in the distance.

Wuga stopped: "I'm sorry, my stomach feels a little uncomfortable. You guys wait for me here for a while, I'll go and make some convenience, and I'll be back soon." Xiaohui said: "Brother Wuga, it's too dark, please take my flashlight." Wuga hesitated for a moment, took the flashlight handed over by Xiaohui, and walked into the trees on the right.

Zhennanfang took off his backpack, sat on the backpack, peeled a lollipop, and put it in his mouth: "Miss Xiaohui, why not?" Xiaohui shook her head, Zhennanfang took out another flashlight from the bag and handed it to her. This time she took it.

Zhennan looked at the trees on the right. Wuga's flashlight should have been turned off. He didn't take it seriously. If he had been convenient, he wouldn't let the flashlight light on, which would be very uncomfortable, especially when he knew there was a woman nearby. But after waiting for nearly twenty minutes, Zhennanfang felt a little suspicious, and he stood up: "Miss Xiaohui, will Wuga run away?" Xiaohui said: "No, right? No reason?"

Zhennanfang said, "You are waiting here, don't move around, I'll go and see, by the way, don't turn off the flashlight." Xiaohui said, "Let me go with you?" Zhennanfang thought for a while and said, "You'd better wait here. If we are all lost, it will be troublesome." Xiaohui said, "Then be careful." Zhennanfang nodded, "Don't worry, I won't have anything to do, you should be careful too."

Zhennan chased after Wuga in the direction of leaving.

He turned around from time to time and looked at the light emitted by Xiaohui's flashlight. As long as he could see the light, he would not get lost. Zhennan has no backpack and he is much more free to move. He held a flashlight in his left hand and a gun in his right hand. Although he is not very brave, he dare not be careless when facing danger.

The search in Zhennanfang was not smooth. He was not familiar with the forest and did not dare to leave Xiaohui's flashlight. Twenty minutes later, he gave up his search for Wuga. He was not worried that something happened to Wuga, because he knew that Wuga should have dumped him and Xiaohui. Zhennanfang returned to Xiaohui's side. Xiaohui saw Zhennanfang and knew the result. She said, "Did that Wuga leave us and run away?"

Zhennan nodded.

Xiaohui asked, "What should we do now? Go back to the town or continue walking forward?" Zhennanfang said, "Go back." Xiaohui asked, "Why?" Zhennanfang said, "Wuga ran away, which means there must be a problem with the way he led us." Xiaohui said, "You don't ask when you were in the town." Zhennanfang said, "How do you know I didn't ask? I asked the shop owner, and he also said that going to Huangtian Village is to go to the road next to the town middle school."

Xiaohui said, "Since that's right, why don't we continue?" Zhennanfang said, "The problem is that can you guarantee that he did not take us a detour in the middle? Leading in the wrong direction?" Xiaohui didn't say anything, Zhennanfang said, "There is another situation you didn't notice, right?" Xiaohui asked, "What's the situation?" Zhennanfang said, "After walking for more than two hours, we didn't see a family. Is this normal?"

Xiaohui said, "But do you still remember the way back?" Zhennanfang smiled and said, "Of course I remember."

The two had to go back. Zhennanfang didn't really remember the way back, but he actually marked it along the way. Every three or five hundred meters he would pick up a lollipop from the ground. Xiaohui was speechless. She found that she seemed to have no experience in "jianghu" in front of Zhennan. She asked, "Did you have long suspected Wuga?"

Zhen Nanfang said: "At first, I couldn't say I was suspicious, but I felt a little strange. I called him last night. When I told him that it was Uncle Deng who asked me to contact him, he seemed to have forgotten about this matter. He realized it only after I explained the situation. I didn't take it too seriously at that time. Today he should have come to pick us up in the morning, but it was delayed until after four o'clock in the afternoon."

Xiaohui said, "Maybe someone is really stuck?" Zhennanfang said, "Yes, so I didn't really doubt him at that time. When I rushed to Huangtian Village overnight, he hesitated. He didn't seem to want us to arrive in Huangtian Village earlier. Just imagine, since Wuga would rather spend money to employ a private detective to investigate this case, it shows how eager he is to find out the truth in his heart. How could he have such a behavior at this moment?"

Xiaohui was silent. She needed to digest the words of Zhennan. She was a little girl who was not very familiar with the world, and she was not very understanding of some human feelings.

Zhen Nanfang said again: "He came with both hands and didn't even bring a flashlight, which means he had never thought about rushing back overnight. This is very unreasonable. Logically speaking, it should be him who came to Huangtian Village overnight, not us."

Xiaohui nodded: "Is this Wuga fake?" Zhennanfang nodded: "I think it should be." Xiaohui said: "What about Wuga really?" Zhennanfang said: "I don't know, maybe he has died in the third accident!"

Just as a gust of wind blew, Xiaohui couldn't help but feel excited. Zhennanfang asked softly: "Miss Xiaohui, are you scared?" Xiaohui straightened her chest: "Who is scared? I'm not afraid." Although she said this, her eyes still swept around. Xiaohui said: "Southern, since something has happened to Wuga, do they need to pretend to Wuga to meet us? Isn't this exposed themselves for no reason?"

Zhennanfang smiled: "Miss Xiaohui, you have the idea of ​​this. In fact, they should have only one purpose, to prevent us from rushing to Huangtian Village. The call they received last night was completely accidental. I could even conclude that something happened to Wuga must have happened yesterday. They must have done something in Huangtian Village yesterday. Due to time constraints, they had not had time to deal with the aftermath, and they would have used this trick."

Xiaohui was a little puzzled: "But if this is the case, this Wuga can never show up, or call and push it until we come to see us tomorrow, so that it will not be exposed?" Zhennanfang shook his head: "They dare not bet, they are afraid that we can't wait, so they come to the door by themselves. Actually, I had a plan. If Wuga didn't show up before five o'clock, we would come over by ourselves. If it weren't for this Wuga, I think we have arrived in Huangtian Village now!"

Wuga's sudden disappearance put a shadow on the case, but at the same time it also made Zhennan feel that the case is becoming more and more interesting.

Two hours later, the two returned to the town again. It was already past 1:00 a.m., and they did not go to the hotel again, but planned to make do with the night in the car. Zhennan called Shu Yi and roughly explained what he encountered today. Shu Yi did not find any opinion, but just asked them to pay attention to safety.
