The Informal Tomb Raiding Diary: She is the occupant of the tomb! Chapter 436 - 327: Clues Pointing3

Huang Zaijiang shook his head, "There’s no sign of a struggle in the house, and the captain has identified the footprints. There’s no trace of outsiders entering the stone house, who would they follow?"

I couldn’t be bothered to reason, saying whatever ca to mind, "They know us, if they followed us, there’s no need to leave any marks, right?"

"Yes, it must be a hallucination; the hallucination they saw was us," Mike said.

"Where would the hallucination take them? If their hallucination is us, then where would it go?" Huang Zaijiang looked at the untouched rope, "Shouldn’t it co back here?"

Chen Qinghan lifted her gaze toward the city center, and Huang Zaijiang imdiately understood, "Yeah, maybe they were taken to the city center if the hallucination told them it’s safe there..."

Little Red went in the direction of the patient, also toward the city center. It looks like our retreat plan is finished.

Our group returned to the stone house once again, with Mike and Chen Qinghan searching for clues outside the stone house, since the heavy rain might have washed away the evidence.

But they continued their serious search, as Wang Le didn’t have a tracker, and finding him relied on primitive thods.

The streets scrubbed by rainwater were without footprints, but Chen Qinghan found half a shoe print at the doorway of a house beside the street.

Following the shoe print, he found more footprints inside the house, and in the corner, discovered Wang Le’s water bottle.

The bottle’s position was especially concealed; there was a stone bench in the corner, and the bottle was behind the bench, as if it had been deliberately hidden.

It still had half a bottle of water, so it couldn’t have been abandoned because it was empty.

"What does this an? Why did he hide the water?" Huang Zaijiang wondered.

He said Wang Le isn’t stingy, since we saved Gu, surely there would be water to share, food to eat together.

"Could it be that he discovered sothing wrong with Gu?" Huang Zaijiang trusted his teammate more, so the suspicion naturally fell on the recently acquainted Gu.

"Perhaps affected by the hallucination." Mike said.

From the house where Chen Qinghan found the footprints, the city center light could be directly seen, aning Wang Le and Gu were indeed moving toward the city center.

And it was before the heavy rain had fallen, Chen Qinghan had checked half the footprint at the door; the other half had been washed out by rainwater.

This footprint was left before the rain, the house’s door led directly to the ’light’ center.

But the more obvious the clues, the more serious Chen Qinghan’s expression beca; he said those ’people’ in the city were trying every ans to lure us to the light source.

The more this happens, the less we should go; clearly it’s a banquet of deception.

"You suspect that foreigner wants to trick us into going there?" Huang Zaijiang looked at Chen Qinghan.

"Yes."

"What benefit does it give him?"

"Regardless of the benefit to him, it’s definitely no good to us," Doctor Du said.

"But Wang Le..." Huang Zaijiang hesitated, looking at Chen Qinghan as if afraid he would say to abandon Wang Le.

"I’m worried, it’s not about whether we want to leave now, but whether they will let us leave," Chen Qinghan’s words weighed like a stone, carrying a heavy sensation.

"What happens if we insist on leaving?" Mike asked.

"You wouldn’t want to know." Chen Qinghan squinted, scrutinizing the surrounding houses and streets; his gaze was a bit strange, but I couldn’t pinpoint what was odd, his current view of the environnt was different from just before.

"Let’s go back now, grab that guy, I can get him to open up," Mike’s ’guy’ probably referred to the cowboy hat.

"No way, you two might end up prying each other," I waved my hands repeatedly, hoping he’d abandon this unrealistic idea.

If everything is a conspiracy to draw us to the city center, the cowboy hat is the executor of the plot, then he and the Evil Spirit surely reached an agreent, might have made so deal, like Wuyong, who exchanged life for longevity, living for thousands of years without dying.

Such ’beings’, ordinary people cannot compare; I now feel the cowboy hat and Mike’s fight was just to confuse us, making us think he’s a normal person.

Faced with a dilemma’s mont, Mike surprisingly fell silent, saying the decision should be left to Chen Qinghan, whether to advance or retreat, it’s up to the captain.

Mike said he only hoped I could stay outside, just in case they couldn’t get out, I’d go back to report.

Having just joined the new team, how could I act differently? Originally, Chen Qinghan and I were a ’workplace romance’, easy to attract gossip, at this crucial mont, I absolutely couldn’t enjoy special treatnt.

So I was the first to oppose his proposal, expressing my intention to follow Chen Qinghan to the end.

"Ah! At what ti is it now, and we’re being fed rations?"
