Chen Zihao frowned: "What's going on? Is there someone else hiding nearby?"
Ding Xiaoyu clenched her fist: "We must find out all of this. We can't let others control our destiny."
The passengers began to question each other, speculating about who had saved the driver.
Soon, the atmosphere in the cabin became even more tense and terrifying.
The older hunter sighed: "We must unite now."
Who saved the driver isn't important; what's important is that we now face even more unknowns.
Chu Tian nodded: "You're right about 2.8. We must be strong and work together to overcome the current difficulties."
Chen Zihao glanced at the rain outside the window: "It's still raining heavily outside, we can't risk going out. Let's rest here for a while and set off again when the rain stops."
Everyone agreed. They all returned to their seats, trying their best to relax.
However, the doubts and fears in people's hearts could not be dispelled.
Chapter 552 Find the Mastermind
That night, everyone gathered around the campfire in the hut, trying to dispel the gloomy atmosphere.
Ding Xiaoyu quietly walked up to Chu Tian and whispered, "Chu Tian, I think the driver is acting strangely. Could you keep an eye on him?"
Chu Tian turned his head to look at the driver sitting next to him. His face was pale and his eyes were unfocused.
Chu Tian nodded, indicating that he would be careful.
For the next few hours, Chu Tian kept an eye on the driver.
He noticed that the driver kept rummaging in his pockets, as if searching for something.
As night falls, the starry sky shines brightly.
The group chatted around the campfire, trying to distract themselves.
The driver suddenly stood up, his voice trembling: "I need to go outside to take care of some personal matters."
Chu Tian keenly noticed this anomaly and quickly followed.
He hid in the darkness, watching the driver's every move intently.
The driver took out a small communicator from the corner.
He glanced around nervously to make sure no one was watching him, then began to speak quietly: "What else do you want? I've already done it, why are you still bothering me?"
A deep voice came through the communicator: You will soon know the answer. Now, follow our instructions, and everything will fall into place.
The driver sighed helplessly: Okay, I will do as you ask.
The voice on the communicator mocked: "Don't try to resist, or you and your family will pay the price."
Chu Tian clenched his fists in anger, secretly determined to expose this conspiracy.
After finishing the call, the driver anxiously looked around to make sure he hadn't been spotted, then went back to the cabin.
A few minutes after the driver left, Chu Tian returned to the cabin.
He found Ding Xiaoyu and told her what had just happened.
After discussing it, the two decided to keep it a secret for the time being and observe how things developed.
The next morning, Chu Tian and Ding Xiaoyu called Chen Zihao and the older hunter aside and told them what they had discovered the night before.
The group decided to take action to expose the conspiracy.
They exchanged opinions and felt that the incident was not just about their bus, but might be related to a larger conspiracy.
They decided to sneak into the nearby forest before nightfall to find the mysterious watcher.
A deep green permeates the forest, and sunlight filters through the dense foliage, casting dappled shadows among the trees.
The wind whispers through the treetops.
The three carefully made their way through the trees, trying not to make a sound.
Chu Tian whispered to Ding Xiaoyu and Chen Zihao, "We'll split up, but stay in touch. If we find anything, notify the others immediately."
Chen Zihao nodded: "060 Okay, we must be careful and not let that guy find us."
Ding Xiaoyu agreed, and the three of them then went into the forest in different directions.
Chu Tian walked along a path, his eyes scanning his surroundings, trying to find any possible clues.
The air in the forest was fresh and cool, and the tree trunks were covered with moss.
The occasional calls of birds in the distance did not lessen their tension at all.
Chen Zihao arrived at an open space and observed some traces of what appeared to be human activity on the ground, such as some trampled grass.
He shone his flashlight around, but found nothing suspicious.
Chapter 553 New Discovery
Ding Xiaoyu then explored along a winding stream.
The babbling brook flowed gently past her feet, carrying away some of her tension.
She couldn't help but pick up a leaf from the water, watching the current carry it away, and her heart was filled with emotion.
As night deepened, the forest grew increasingly dark.
Chu Tian suddenly heard Chen Zihao's voice coming through the earpiece: "I found a hiding place in the northeast direction, which looks like it has been inhabited."
"Come over here right away, let's investigate together."
Chu Tian and Ding Xiaoyu immediately changed direction and headed towards Chen Zihao's location.
A moment later, the three met up in the northeast corner of the forest.
Chen Zihao pointed to a small wooden house in front of him and said, "I just found this place, and it feels a bit strange."
Let's ask around and see if we can find any clues.
The three of them cautiously approached the small wooden cabin, which looked quite old, with faded and dilapidated planks.
The area was overgrown with weeds, indicating that no one had been here for a long time.
Chu Tian took out a flashlight and carefully looked around, trying to find any suspicious signs.
Ding Xiaoyu walked to the window of the wooden house and peered inside.
The room was filled with some old furniture, and newspapers and bottles were scattered on the floor. A musty smell wafted through the air.
Chen Zihao walked to the other side of the wooden house and found a small door that was half-open.
He gestured for Chu Tian and Ding Xiaoyu to come over. The three of them mustered their courage, carefully pushed open the door, and went inside.
The space behind the door was not large; it was clearly a small, temporary room.
Besides a worn-out bed, there was a table in the room with a radio and some odds and ends on it.
There was also a simple shelf in the corner with some food and water on it.
A musty, stale smell filled the air, making one's skin crawl.
Chu Tian frowned and said, "It seems that this place has indeed been inhabited."
However, we need more evidence to confirm that this person is the mastermind we are looking for.
Ding Xiaoyu picked up a piece of paper from the table, on which some complex patterns and symbols were drawn.
She asked疑惑地问道, "What do these mean? Should we take them with us? They might be useful."
Chen Zihao glanced at the contents of the paper and said, "Perhaps these are the methods that guy uses to control people. If we take these with us, we might be able to find a way to break the spell."
The three packed their belongings and prepared to leave the cabin.
Just as they were about to push open the door to leave, they found that the door was locked.
The other end of the lock is inside the room.
Chu Tian frowned and said, "What's going on? It was definitely open when I came in."
Chen Zihao was also surprised: "Could it be that someone was secretly following us, and when they found out we were here, they locked the door?"
Ding Xiaoyu looked around in fear: "What should we do (the king)? Are we just going to be trapped here like this?"
Chu Tian looked at the locked door, pondered for a moment, and said, "Don't panic. The key now is to find a way to open this door."
Perhaps we can look around the house for any tools we can use to pick the lock.
The three began searching the house for tools to pick the lock, but the house was too small and there weren't many things they could use.
Chen Zihao found an iron rod in a corner.
