Chapter 19 - Not Familiar With Each Other (2/2)

Soon, Ye Jian caught up with them. She saw the man who was addressed as Captain Xia and the soldiers, who she thought were chasing the criminals, standing together. Everywhere Captain Xia pointed, one soldier would photograph that spot with a camera.

Xia Jinyuan had heard the rustling of bushes behind him. He was a bit surprised. This girl is wild. She has caught up with us so quickly. He thought.

“I met them a little bit over there. But they are not there now,” pointing at the slope before her, Ye Jian pursed her lips and said. “However, I doubt they will continue going upward.”

Considering that one man was bitten by a snake, he would die if he stayed longer in the mountain.

“That’s right. So we can collect evidence first,” said Xia Jinyuan with a gentle smile. Obviously, he knew what she meant. He tilted his head to look at her.

There were no telephone signals inside the mountain. It was impossible for the people trapped here to send out information or make phone calls for help.

Although Captain Xia was a man with an intimidating presence, when he smiled, he was extraordinarily charming.

Ye Jian had never thought she would be distracted by a man’s look. However, at this moment, she couldn’t help but glance at him one more time.

As the breeze from the mountain stroked her face, she came to herself from the distraction and also noticed a hint of smell.

She held her breath and exhaled lightly. In an instant, her eyes lit up, making them bright and resplendent like diamonds.

Within a few steps, she had arrived beside Xia Jinyuan. She said in a voice that only belonged to teenage girls, “How long will it take for you to collect the evidence? They are not very far. You can chase after them immediately.”

Xia Jinyuan subdued the intimidating gaze in his black eyes and calmly looked at this girl standing inches away from him.

Like before, the perseverance in this girl’s eyes made her words trustworthy.
