Chapter 702: Chapter 702: Baby Boy Missing. Part 2 (Fourth Update)

"Grandfather, young mistress, a few of my brothers are also participating in this search and rescue operation. I just communicated with them on the phone, and explained the young master’s lifestyle habits and skills, which I believe will be of great help to their search."

The capable assistants of Tong village were all retired special forces soldiers. They were not only extraordinary in their combat skills but also had exceptional intelligence.

"Hmm!" Master Yan responded lightly.

Zhu Qianying knew he was worried about his son, so she reached out and patted the back of his hand to comfort him, saying,

"As long as the baby boy didn’t encounter any major attacks or injuries, if he just got lost or something, he has the ability to survive in that environment. No need to worry too much."

Zhu Qianying said this not merely to comfort Master Yan, but because it was a fact.

Of course, the premise was that there were no other powerful external attacks or injuries.

Despite being intelligent, the baby boy is only five years old, and his self-protection is extremely low in the face of strong attacks.

"Yes, he must have found a safe place to hide and quietly wait for our rescue!"

Master Yan in return tried to comfort Zhu Qianying. He and Zhu Qianying were well aware that panic and chaos in this situation would only make matters worse.

Therefore, he and Zhu Qianying must remain calm, they must think positively! They should actively look for various coping strategies, as that’s the best approach.

"Grandfather, you and Ying Zi should close your eyes and rest for a while."

Ke Kai made such a suggestion, of course, also out of good intentions.

As no one knows how long the subsequent search and rescue operation would last, taking advantage of now when there is time to rest and save a little energy, is the most correct approach.

Zhu Qianying and Master Yan were emotionally restless and anxious, and by rights, they should not be able to close their eyes.

But with the same idea as Ke Kai, they slightly lowered their seats and closed their eyes in a pretense of sleep.

The scenic area is about two hours’ drive from L City. The helicopter would only take tens of minutes to fly there.

The place where the helicopter was originally scheduled to land was at the mouth of the restricted area. The intention was to meet with the local search and rescue team to exchange information and discuss and adjust the next search and rescue plan.

Before the helicopter found a suitable place to land, Master Yan instructed the pilot.

"Old Fang, don’t land first. Circle a couple of times in the sky and look at the situation."

The pilot was also a veteran special forces soldier. He was brought over by Master Yan with a hefty sum after retirement. He himself had extensive experience in search and rescue, and had no objections to Master Yan’s command.

As he also thought it was extremely important to get a clear picture of the surrounding environment first.

The helicopter circled over an area of ten kilometers around the restricted area a few times. This made Master Yan, Zhu Qianying, and Ke Kai barely able to breathe.

They had seen evidence of cliffs, rapid rivers, unknown caves forming huge invisible whirlpools, and ancient forests hiding various wild animals within that ten-kilometer radius.

Master Yan and Zhu Qianying’s faces became increasingly solemn, and their clasped hands grew tighter.

After two laps in the sky, Master Yan instructed the pilot to meet up with the main search and rescue team.

As soon as Zhu Qianying and Master Yan got off the plane, they caught sight of Ji Yu and Ji Huan, who seemed to be talking to a police officer.

As if they had sensed something, the Ji brothers and the police officer turned their heads together. Upon seeing them, they quickly walked over.

"Director Zhong, what’s the situation now?"

Master Yan didn’t bother with any pleasantries with the Ji brothers. Both parties simply nodded their heads, and he asked about the current search and rescue situation.

"Master Yan, there hasn’t been any discovery so far. We have conducted a thorough search in the area near this entrance, and have not seen any special traces."

This non-clue was, in fact, good news for Zhu Qianying and Master Yan.

This at least proved that there had not been any intense confrontation or disputes at the time.

"Director Zhong, I’ve brought a dog here from my home. This dog has a very good relationship with my son, so you can take it with you and conduct a search."

As Master Yan said this, Ke Kai was already leading Star over.

Director Zhong nodded in approval, "Hmm, good, this is definitely much better than us searching blindly."

The police also brought sniffer dogs, so Director Zhong arranged two teams led by the police dogs and Star to start the search from two different directions.

Master Yan, Zhu Qianying, and the Ji brothers, while Director Zhong was arranging his men, were also discussing on the side how to make the search more effective.

After all, the baby boy was just a child, and even though he had experience living in the wild, it did not mean he was capable of dealing with all the unexpected events that might happen in this dangerous environment.

At this moment, Zhu Qianying and Master Yan were very grateful that they had packed a lot of food for the baby boy a few days ago.

That morning, Zhu Qianying stuffed all the compressed biscuits and sports drinks into the baby boy’s backpack. Although it was a bit heavy, if he hadn’t shared the food, there was enough food for him to survive for two to three days.

"He should not have shared it with others. I also talked to a few of the primary school students recently and based on their statements, the baby boy only gave them some drinks along the way. As for the compressed biscuits, they didn’t like the taste, so no one shared them."

Hearing this, no doubt it was good news among bad news for Zhu Qianying and Master Yan.

"Master Yan, I want to join them in the search..."

"No!" Master Yan adamantly rejected her suggestion, "You have to protect yourself first!"

To the outside world, Zhu Qianying seemed calm, but only she knew her heart was like being cut into pieces by a knife, causing her great pain.

With the fate of her precious son unknown, how could she have the heart to consider her own safety?

"I know, I definitely don’t have the stamina and experience of these search and rescue team members, but I and the baby boy...should have some kind of psychic connection, right...?"

Even if they never had before, she hoped that in this critical juncture, she and her precious son could have some psychic connection.

Master Yan pulled her into his arms and sighed softly.

"Ying’er, I know you’re upset, but you can’t get into trouble. My boy, he’ll be fine too, trust me! You stay here and be good, we’ll go and look for him!"

Master Yan was still trying to convince Zhu Qianying, but how stubborn was Zhu Qianying?

Moreover, she always strongly believed that no one could understand her baby better than she did.

In the end, Master Yan finally gave in to Zhu Qianying, all because under Zhu Qianying’s persuasion, even Director Zhong and the Ji brothers thought it might be better if she participated.

Master Yan finally agreed to let her join, but he insisted that she must be in his team.

To this, Zhu Qianying had no objections. After all, she and Master Yan had a lot of understanding that others did not share.
