Guo Zhenyu carefully entered the homes of the villagers with a saber in one hand and a gun in the other.

Just like before, there was no one at this place. Guo Zhenyu turned on the flashlight on his pistol and slowly searched the house.

Just like that, Guo Zhenyu looked around half the village, but still came up empty-handed. When he looked at this place, Guo Zhenyu could not help but feel a little bit relieved.

He rummaged through all the houses in the village, only to find a bunch of keys. The keys were wrapped in insulating tape, and on them, the words "Office" were written.

A mark indicating the purpose of a room.

Since the system could no longer contact him, Guo Zhenyu could only rely on himself to look for directions. Fortunately, this place was not big, and during the day, Guo Zhenyu would wait until nightfall to search for targets in the forest.

The village was in the southeastern part of the forest farm. To get to the forest farm, there was only one road that was big enough for a car.

But for Guo Zhenyu, this was not a difficult task.

Since there was no one here to bother him, he decided to just park his car and fly over.

Guo Zhenyu tried to summon his wings as he usually would, but he found that he was unable to do so.

This surprised Guo Zhenyu. Ever since he was able to control the wings skillfully, nothing like this had happened.

And now that An Na was not by her side, even if she wanted to find someone to ask, he could not do anything.

Guo Zhenyu tried a dozen times and was finally sure that his wings could no longer be opened. In other words, he could only obediently follow the path.

Guo Zhenyu had no choice but to take out his Harley 48 from his space bag. After getting on the motorcycle, Guo Zhenyu quickly left the village along with the roar of the engine.

Not far away, some creatures were awakened by the sound of his engine. They sat up from the ground and stared blankly at the source of the sound.

After a moment, he stood up and walked towards the source of the voice.

After about 20 minutes of riding, Guo Zhenyu arrived at the office building.

He parked by the side of the road, turned off the engine, and got out of the car.

There were indeed a lot of keys, from the field leader's office to the filing cabinet, each of them had a key.

However, what bothered him was that on the keys, there were a few lowercase letters, each with the words "w".

"x"

"e."

"I …"

"A!"

"n"

"I …"

And the "i" on the key to the warehouse at the back of the office.

It seemed to be written in reverse, which made people feel weird when they saw it.

Guo Zhenyu saw the strangeness of the keys and took them out.

Guo Zhenyu suddenly thought of those terrifying games. However, the main character in the games was himself, and with so many tools, he felt like he was hanging himself, so he wasn't afraid of playing the terrifying games.

Guo Zhenyu first took the one with "w" written on it.

The key to field leader's office went upstairs to field leader's office. After opening the office, he found that it was messy with blood splattered all around and there was a rotten stench coming from the house.

Guo Zhenyu endured the nauseous smell and searched for clues on field leader's desk.

Guo Zhenyu searched for a long time, but he couldn't find any clues at all. On field leader's desk, there was only a pile of documents, such as the rate of harvest from the forest and the condition of the trees.

What made Guo Zhenyu curious was that the date written on it was November 27, 1994.

Looking at the date, just a few days before the smuggler ship fell to the ground.

Guo Zhenyu was curious, why would this place have documents from decades ago?

Although he was puzzled, Guo Zhenyu still silently left the room, then went to the accounting room at the side, using that hand to write "E".

The key to the accounting room opened.

"Creak."

The door of the accounting room made a sound that made one's teeth ache. In this quiet night in the mountain forest, the sound came from far away.

When the financial room door was opened, Guo Zhenyu found a few dried corpses within. Judging from their clothes, they were indeed the employees of this forest farm.

Among them, there was a female corpse dressed in formal clothing, and the remaining two male corpse dressed in labour protection clothing.

Those corpses were leaning against the wall, almost all of them maintaining a powerless posture as they leaned against the wall. Both of their hands were covering their stomachs, but from the looks of it, they seemed to have starved to death.

However, there were no signs of the door being locked, which surprised Guo Zhenyu.

Why would these guys want to starve to death here instead of going out?

Was it fear of this place?

Adding on the bloodstains found in field leader's office earlier, Guo Zhenyu was even more sure that there was something up ahead.

Judging from the time when the materials were placed on the table, this was something that happened decades ago. Who knows if the things that killed them still existed.

However, this also served as a reminder to Guo Zhenyu that this damned place had existed for so many years.

What made Guo Zhenyu feel slightly gratified was that he found a map of the forestry office in this place.

There were a total of eight rooms in the two-storey office. Other than the toilet, each room had a key.

Other than the field leader's office and treasury, which had already been searched, there were two other staff bedrooms, a reception room, a chore room, and a conference room.

Guo Zhenyu held the keys in his hand, thought for a moment, then turned around and went downstairs to check the employees' bedrooms, two bedrooms, a man and a woman.

When Guo Zhenyu looked through the information previously, he also saw that the personnel organization was very simple. Other than the field leader and the three forest guards, there were only two external staff members left — an accountant and an official.

It happened to be a man and a woman, so they were given two rooms to stay in.

Judging from the body that had been found upstairs, the body of the clerk and the other ranger were still missing.

If there were a total of six people in the forest, other than the accountant who had confirmed the corpses and the two forest guards, as well as field leader who was still in a mess as if they were dead, there were still two other people who had not been found. Guo Zhenyu's intuition told him that they would not disappear for no reason like the villagers.

The corpses on the ground were evidence.
