Run Sheng asked, "Could there be wild animals around here?"
Xue Liangliang shook his head, "Team Leader Ma specifically inquired locals beforehand, and there are no signs of wild animals in the vicinity. Besides, even if it were wild beasts, they couldn't just carry off three grown men at once. Even if the animal decided to eat them on the spot, it would leave behind a lot of traces."
At that moment, lights flickered in Morse code from afar.
Xue Liangliang waved his hand, "Let's go over there and check it out."
Nearby squads gathered towards the source of the light signals.
Upon arriving, beneath a large boulder, everyone found a hat and a climbing stick broken into two pieces, confirmed to belong to the missing team members.
Holding a flashlight, Xue Liangliang carefully examined the ground, then he lay on his side into the boulder, placing his climbing stick horizontally, wedging it between the ground and the edge of the rock.
