Chapter 131: Chapter 92 Conclusion, Encounter, Police, Exposure
On the other side, under Qian Yi’s lead, a large group of police officers conducted a grid search near the lookout point.
At this moment, an officer jogged over to Qian Yi’s side.
"What is it?"
"Reporting to Captain Qian, our team discovered two bodies to the west."
"Two bodies?"
Qian Yi raised an eyebrow and felt a sudden jolt in his heart. He thought, could they be children trafficked by foreign organizations?
He quickly signaled the officer to lead the way and asked, "Are they children?"
"No, they are two adult bodies."
Upon hearing this, Qian Yi breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they weren’t children... Bodies... could they be members of the foreign organization?
But why would they die here?
What happened?
Filled with doubt,
he followed the officer and soon examined the two bodies.
"Electrocuted again?"
"Struck by lightning?"
Not only Qian Yi, but the surrounding officers also had the same initial reaction upon seeing the two bodies.
Thunderstorm, deep in the woods, bodies showing signs of electrocution...
All elements combined.
The previous case led by Zou Huaide’s human trafficker ring instantly flashed in their minds.
Wasn’t this the same scenario?
The only difference was...
Lin Beichen!
Qian Yi and the other officers did not know that Lin Beichen was also here.
Because of this,
comparing the situation here and at Wuling Mountain,
they became even more convinced...
Whether it was these two bodies here or the dozen bodies at Wuling Mountain, they all were struck by lightning and died accidentally.
Even though it sounded far-fetched.
But...
They could only attribute this to these people’s heinous acts and retribution.
Meanwhile, all the speculations and doubts about Lin Beichen...
gradually vanished from their minds.
"Identify these two bodies as soon as possible."
Qian Yi said to the forensic team that came along, and continued, "I believe these two bodies are very likely members of the foreign organization. Their presence here suggests the foreign organization members have fled into the mountains and are hiding there. Leave the scene investigation to the forensic team, the rest of you, continue the search with me!"
"Yes!"
The officers immediately sprung into action.
...
As they continued their mountain search,
at the entrance of a cave,
the atmosphere was tense.
"Swish swish—"
Heavy rain poured, and other than the white noise of the rain, nothing else could be heard.
After shouting, Hu Nodun didn’t get any response, but he didn’t lower his guard. His nerves were tense, eyes scanning around the cave entrance carefully.
Meanwhile, hearing Hu Nodun’s shout, Yahan’s already frazzled mind short-circuited completely.
"Hu Nodun, what are you saying?"
Yahan looked at Hu Nodun in confusion and asked, "What does Lin Beichen have to do with this? How could he possibly be here?"
Then, he glanced outside the cave entrance.
It was empty.
He continued, "Are you..."
"Shut up!"
Hu Nodun was already disturbed by the current situation, and he couldn’t tolerate Yahan’s constant questioning that denied his judgment.
However, he didn’t have time to teach Yahan a lesson. Instead, he stubbornly continued to probe, shouting loudly, "Alright, you won’t come out, huh..."
"Three!"
The countdown echoed in the empty surroundings.
Through the sound of rain,
it clearly reached Lin Beichen, hidden in the dark.
At this moment, Lin Beichen’s brows were tightly furrowed, his face dark as ink, cursing his slip-up!
According to his original plan,
Alek’s phone was placed at the entrance of the cave, and given the distance from the entrance, he could handle anyone walking out from the cave.
One person comes out, he kills one.
Two come out, he kills two.
If all come out,
Though he might not be able to kill them instantly, the distance between the phone and the entrance was enough for him to launch a second attack.
But what he didn’t expect was...
One person came out. To be sure, fearing any mistakes, he waited a while. Just as that person was about to pick up the phone, he made his move.
What he didn’t anticipate was...
Another person came out!
And he hadn’t even walked out fully, just staying inside the cave entrance, leaving him unable to attack again to remedy the situation.
"How could someone come out so long after?"
"Was it a coincidence?"
"Or had they sensed something and acted deliberately?"
Lin Beichen didn’t dwell on this question. After all, he had more pressing matters to consider—
Did the enemy really confirm it was him?
Considering the distance during his strike, the darkness, and the rain curtain, Lin Beichen didn’t believe the person at the cave entrance could see him clearly.
Perhaps they only suspected it was him?
Or threatened him with his parents...
Was it just a bluff?
A thought flashed in his mind.
But the next moment,
he dismissed it.
Nevertheless...
He couldn’t afford to gamble!
What’s next?
How to break out of this situation...
As Lin Beichen’s mind raced, Hu Nodun’s voice rang out again in his ears.
"Two!!"
Stay calm!
You must remain calm!
Hearing this, Lin Beichen’s mind was in turmoil, but he maintained clarity in his thoughts.
And at this moment.
Suddenly!
A flash of inspiration struck him.
The kidnappers’ goal...
wasn’t to kill him!
But to capture him alive!
Realizing this, Lin Beichen’s mind cleared, and his eyes grew brighter.
