C81 (2/2)
”Le Le, Mu Er, are you tired? Why don't you go back and rest? ” Yan Yun said gently.
”No need.” The two girls said almost the same thing at the same time, stubbornly raising their small heads.
Yan Yun sighed softly. The two girls hadn't eaten since last night until dawn, so their stomachs must be growling from hunger. Furthermore, they were still walking on the bumpy mountain road, and with their stamina, they were already on the verge of collapse.
But they did not want to leave, so they tried their best to stay. Yan Yun did not have any rights to take them away either, so he could only give them a sly look.
Along the way, even the group of scouts that were in good health were panting from exhaustion, not to mention Mo Le and Lin Muer, Yan Yun had already seen that their delicate and white arms had a few small wounds from the thorns, but they did not say a word, and just silently followed behind, meticulously inspecting the traces left behind.
However, when the few of them met up at the mouth of the sea, they could all see the confusion in each other's eyes, but they could not find any clues, and then all of their gazes landed on Yan Yun, who had seen through all of the bandit's methods before, and maybe he was the only one who could do something.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Yan Yun also felt the pressure, his heart was unsettled, the clues in his mind seemed to have been cut off, but he felt that he had missed something.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Yan Yun's mind, he had finally grasped the loophole, the stone! When the corpses of Chu Yunxi's dead bodyguards were thrown at the bottom of the sea, the bodies of the tied up stones were exposed.
The bandits would definitely be in a hurry when they left. Although the method was very ingenious, if they wanted a rock, they would definitely find what they were looking for. As long as they found a rock, they would be able to find the direction they were heading towards.
”Quick, everyone split up and look for the stone. Let's see where the stone has been moved.”
”What are you looking for?” The scout Jiang Bo asked in confusion.
”If I'm going to tell you to look, then go ahead. Stop spouting so much nonsense.” Yan Yun was anxious in his heart, how could he let him have a good time?
Seeing Yan Yun's current state, no one spoke anymore. Yan Yun went along the vines and gourds, although the methods used by the criminals were strange, they were all found out by him one by one. Seeing him trying to find a rock to move the traces, although they were all suspicious, they did not say anything, and even felt a faint sense of anticipation.
The efficiency of searching separately was still very high. Not long after, Mo Le and Lin Muer's shouts came out.
”Yan Yun, we found it.” The two girls were very excited because they had finally helped.
”Not bad.” smiled as he praised them. The two girls needed encouragement the most, so Yan Yun would naturally not be stingy with his words of not asking for a single cent.
When the two girls' complexions improved slightly, he squatted down to take a closer look. He found that the tracks of the stone being moved were new. From the looks of it, this was the place.
”Everyone, stand here and don't move. Don't destroy the footprints.” After Yan Yun finished speaking, he carefully searched for a few footprints on the ground, and then followed the footprints as he walked towards the shore.
There were no trees here to help them, so the criminals picked up the rocks to walk on, causing the footprints to not shallow. Not long later, Yan Yun arrived at the seaside, raised his head to look at the ocean, picked up the phone and dialed a number, quickly exchanging a few words.
Yan Yun was sure that the criminals would not have gone off to sea in a wrong direction, because if he had not accidentally found the corpses at the bottom of the sea, the footprints left behind when moving the rocks could not even be considered clues. Furthermore, the criminals were in a hurry to leave, it was impossible for the arrangements to be flawless.
The next step was the tracking on the sea. In the face of the vast ocean, Yan Yun was not very confident, but no matter what, he had to give it a try.
Just then, Mo Le's shout came out, it was actually a bandit calling him.
