Chapter 256 The Trace of Disappearance

Meng Zhe smirked and said, "It must have been eaten by wolves!"

"That's even more impossible. There haven't been wild wolves in the Nanshan Scenic Area for more than ten years!" Deng Kai said affirmatively.

Song Jiang couldn't believe it when he heard this, "A big living person can't disappear out of thin air, right?"

Unexpectedly, Deng Kai said in a deep voice, "It's not just people... When Li Jiao returned to the scene of the incident, even their car was gone! Anyway, the police are unreliable now, why don't you call Gu Hao? How about taking another trip to Nanshan with me?!"

Deng Kai thought that Song Jiang would agree, but he shook his head and said, "I think this matter should be handled by the police, and we should not intervene rashly..."

"It's just... there are too many nosy things in this world, how can I take care of everything?" Meng Zhe said with a look of excitement.

Seeing this, Deng Kai knew that it would be impossible to deal with Meng Zhe, so he quickly added to him, "There is a commission... yes! There is a commission! Fifty thousand a day!" After he finished speaking, he still didn't forget to look around at the book The dismal business in the restaurant, and then said sincerely, "If I were the two of you, I would find a way to earn some extra money to subsidize the business here."

As soon as Meng Zhe heard that he was rich, his attitude changed immediately, and he said with a smile, "Okay, call Gu Hao, and leave after lunch..."

Song Jiang suddenly smiled helplessly, "It's already dark when we set off in the afternoon, isn't it easier to find someone during the day?"

But Meng Zhe waved his hand and said, "If we can find the police during the day, we should. Since the person disappeared at night, we can only go there at night..."

Afterwards, Deng Kai drove Song Jiang and Meng Zhe to Gu Hao's house to pick him up, but this guy was even more unrealistic. He didn't need Deng Kai to say anything, and asked directly on the phone, "Is there a commission?"

Deng Kai sighed after hearing this, "We have known each other for so long, why are you still such a philistine? If you ask me for help, I will definitely agree without saying a word, and never mention a word of money!"

Unexpectedly, Gu Hao immediately replied, "Can someone with a net worth of hundreds of thousands compare with someone with a net worth of billions? If the two of us switch bank accounts, I can be so arrogant to you!"

Deng Kai will never be Gu Hao's opponent when it comes to verbal fights, so he has no choice but to shut up obediently and stop talking nonsense... After the three of them picked up Gu Hao, Meng Zhe let Deng Kai Call Zhou Shiwu's wife and ask her to send over the exact location of the incident.

After hearing this, Song Jiang asked Meng Zhe, "Why didn't you take that Li Jiao with you? Wouldn't it be more convenient to find him this way?"

Meng Zhe shook his head quickly when he heard it, and said, "Bring a woman up the mountain at night, and you'll be looking for a fart if you're surprised! Just ask her to send the location!"

Song Jiang also felt that what Meng Zhe said made sense. Taking Li Jiao up the mountain after dark might not be helpful, and it might scare her, and when the time came, they would inevitably have to dig into the woods and take Li Jiao with her. She was indeed a little insecure.

Not long after, Li Jiao sent the exact location of the accident to Deng Kai's mobile phone. Song Jiang took a look and found that there was indeed a homestay not far from the location of the accident. If Brother Wu went down the mountain to ask for help that night, the first choice should be That's it... So the group immediately drove to the mountain courtyard at the entrance of Nanshan Scenic Area.

When the few people arrived, it was completely dark, so the four of them chatted with the owner of the hotel in the name of staying at the hotel...

Song Jiang first glanced at the check-in registration form at the front desk, and then said casually, "Boss, how is the business this year? Are there many guests?"

The boss shook his head helplessly when he heard this and said, "It's far worse than the previous years. Now there are fewer out-of-town tourists. How much money can local tourists earn? Besides, there are not many local tourists staying in homestays. Just bring a tent and you can play in the mountains for a few days..."

Song Jiang smiled and said, "That's right...Actually, we wanted to take a tent and spend the night in the mountains, but I heard that the mountains are not very safe at night, so we decided to stay in a homestay." .”

"Nanshan is not safe? I've never heard of it... Besides, what's so unsafe here? There aren't even any wild animals on Nanshan." The owner of the homestay said while registering the check-in information of several people.

Seeing this, Gu Hao continued to ask, "By the way, boss, have you heard what happened on Nanshan a few days ago?"

Unexpectedly, the owner of the homestay was more curious than them, and asked quickly, "What happened?"

"I heard that there is a champagne-colored Volvo, and it disappeared with the car!" Gu Hao kindly reminded.

Unexpectedly, the owner of the homestay shook his head and said, "There is such a thing? Why haven't I heard of it?"

Deng Kai on the side was surprised when he heard this, "Impossible, the family members have called the police, so the police didn't come to your place to investigate?"

The owner of the homestay still looked blank and said, "No! The place where my front door is facing the road is indeed equipped with surveillance cameras. If the police come to investigate, they must first ask me to check the surveillance cameras. Even if they didn't come to check the surveillance cameras immediately, but As long as there is a police car passing by, I can still see it at a glance, and I haven't seen a police car going up the mountain these days!"

Song Jiang and the others were confused by what the owner of the homestay said. Deng Kai even confirmed the exact location of the incident to Li Jiao again, but Li Jiao sent a message clearly stating that it was the place she sent the location...

Afterwards, Song Jiang and the others asked for a suite. After all, they didn't really come to live in a homestay, so it was more convenient to live in a suite. After discussing briefly in the room for a while, they drove to the place where the incident Li Jiao mentioned.

Unexpectedly, not long after they left, Li Jiao sent another message saying that there were small trees broken by their car and brake marks on the ground where the incident happened. Li Jiao went around the place where Li Jiao sent her to locate the location several times, but she couldn't find the broken tree or the brake marks on the ground.

Song Jiang glanced at the dark forest outside the window and said, "These traces are naturally clear during the day, but now it's too dark outside, and I can't see anything clearly."

But Meng Zhe shook his head and said, "No, the places we passed just now don't have the traces she mentioned at all..."

Deng Kai thought for a while and said, "It's been raining in the mountains for the past two days. Could the brake marks have been washed away by the rain?"

"What about the broken tree? It can't be the one that grows again, right?" Gu Hao said a little funny.

After hearing this, Song Jiang said, "Maybe it was cut off by someone? After the tree is broken, it will definitely not survive. If it falls on the side of the road, it will easily cause a safety hazard. It may be handled by the staff of the scenic spot."
