Fire Chief vs. Surgeon: A Tale of Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 780 Nobody at the Bottom of the Cliff
The man finally realized something was wrong:
"Captain Jiang and those two doctors are..."
The teammates beside him were even more anxious than Jiang Ye:
"The female doctor surnamed Lu you mentioned is our sister-in-law!"
No wonder!
"Tell us quickly, where did the disappearance occur? We’ll go search right away!"
The young man finally came to his senses:
"Oh, I heard it’s in the middle section of Niubei Mountain, ah, it’s hard to explain clearly, I’ll take you there."
To this, Jiang Ye and his team naturally had no objections.
"Xiao Mao, you stay behind with a few people to take care of the professors."
Xiao Mao actually wanted to go out search more, but since the captain had ordered, he could only agree:
"Yes!"
A dozen people followed him hurriedly.
This dark mountain path was really not easy to walk on.
From time to time, they would also encounter villagers who had already gone out to search.
Jiang Ye and his team were certainly much more planned than the villagers, basically not blindly searching.
With such a vast mountain, blindly searching, even deploying two thousand people might not yield results.
Still, it required a plan and a purpose.
When they reached where the village leader first tumbled off the cliff, everyone stopped.
"Captain Jiang?"
"Let’s plan first."
"Yes."
Professional matters still required professional handling.
The contingency plan Jiang Ye and his team came up with, was as precise as if they had witnessed the person falling off.
After the planning, the team members began to closely observe the rolling traces at the scene.
But those traces could only be seen for about two meters, any further and they would have to secure safety ropes to descend down the cliff.
Jiang Ye had already started searching through his backpack, and quickly found a rope:
"I’ll go down."
The team members were very worried:
"Captain Jiang, let us go down instead."
Everyone knew that people are more likely to make mistakes when extremely worried.
This was a cliff, not some flat ground, if something went wrong, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"No need, I’ll go down, leave a few people here, the rest continue searching."
Talking about severity, this place was definitely more dangerous; after all, someone had fallen down for so long, who knew what the situation below was.
Thinking about it, his own wife was not foolish, it was just a disappearance, she definitely wasn’t in any danger.
So, he could only let his team members continue the search.
The team members instantly stood straight:
"Yes!"
Jiang Ye was already preparing to descend the cliff, his gaze deeply glanced at the team members:
"Go."
He didn’t say much more.
In times like these, saying too much only added pressure on everyone.
Watching the team members walk away, Jiang Ye closed his eyes.
"Captain Jiang?"
"You guys just guard above, I’ll go down first."
"Understood."
Jiang Ye’s movements were as fast and fierce as anything.
He swiftly made it down, sliding down while gripping his body.
Keep in mind, this was a cliff, not some training tower at a unit.
But, someone was not afraid at all, just straight down.
That truly frightened the people above, who held their breath.
Yet, they didn’t dare shout loudly, fearing they might startle him.
Ah....
Jiang Ye had now reached the bottom, but found nothing.
With the rain that had fallen so long, even if there had been any traces earlier, they were mostly destroyed by now.
But the fact was, the person did not fall to the very bottom, so naturally, there would be no so-called traces.
After the village leader rolled down the cliff, he wasn’t foolish, he definitely tried to save himself.
So, he started to roll to the side halfway down, which naturally also increased the friction area, slowing the speed of the fall.
