Chapter 5441 Jungle Search 2

"Makes sense." Quickly nodded.

"Check to see what traces are nearby. Stepping on broken branches or fallen grass. There are more than a dozen of them, and it is impossible for them to leave no traces." Lin Rui squatted down to examine it carefully.

Other mercenaries were also searching nearby for suspicious clues.

"There's a discovery here." Sausage waved to them and whispered, "There's half a footprint here."

"Looking at the marks on these shoes, they are combat boots. Judging from the texture of the sole, they are Panama soles suitable for jungle combat. It seems that Nightingale and the others were well prepared to enter the jungle." Lin Rui touched the shoes on the ground with his hand. print.

"Keep looking, we will definitely find more traces left by them." Lin Rui beckoned the brothers to follow.

I searched for the direction of the footprints and continued to explore. He was right, and soon they found more clues.

Including some footprints covered by dead leaves, and some burned ashes. It's just that these ashes have been covered with mud, and it is difficult to find them without careful observation.

"It seems that they camped here. They lit the campfire. But they were very cautious and cleaned up all traces when they left." Lin Rui looked around alertly, "From this range, it should be Nightingale and her group.

There are scratches on the tree over there, but it shouldn't be caused by some beast. More like someone climbed a tree.

It should be that when they were in the camp, the personnel responsible for vigilance stepped on the trunk and climbed the tree to expand the warning area. "

He quickly stepped forward and touched the soil sticking to the tree with his hand, "The soil is already dry. Under such humid conditions, if the soil is completely dry in the shade, it will take at least several days.

I estimate that these traces were left a week ago or even earlier. "

"Yes, according to the weather forecast, it rained last week. The timing was right after they entered the jungle.

Cameroon has a humid climate, and it gets even more humid after entering the jungle. In addition to the rain, I am afraid everyone is wet.

That's why they camp here. Dry your clothes over a campfire and get back on the road. Because wet clothes attract more insects, and wet clothes can induce various skin infections. " Yelena nodded.

"This also shows that they are still far away from the terrorists' camp, otherwise they would not be able to take risks to start a fire. The light and smoke from the bonfire are the easiest targets to expose." Lin Rui pointed to the front, "They should be in that direction."

"But there are no footprints leading there. How do you know they're going there?" Sergey asked.

"The reason is very simple, that direction points to the location marked on their document." Lin Rui pointed to the front, "Let's continue to move forward."

The whole team followed along. Soon they found more traces. Because the road ahead was very difficult to walk, they had to use a machete to clear the way, and they also found vines that had been cut down.

A vine that has been cut by a knife, even in such an environment, is unlikely to fully recover within a week, and will always leave traces of the cut.

The woods were huge, and they followed their footprints. After two days of tracing. Finally came to the back of a boulder.

All traces are gone here.

After searching for a long time, the mercenaries were a little frustrated.

"It doesn't look like I've found anything else." The black mamba came over, "I checked it twice with my brethren. It seems that all traces started here and disappeared. No footprints, no discards, and no Something deliberately hidden."

"A team of more than a dozen people, it's impossible to say that it's gone, you can look for it carefully." Butler couldn't help but said.

Lin Rui thought for a while and replied, "I know why they didn't leave any evidence. It's still because of the rain, and this is a low place, because the precipitation is too heavy, the water flowing from a high place left them behind. All traces were washed away.

There are all traces of water scouring here. These traces of sediment were obviously washed away by a lot of rain. They must have thought of this, so they were wading.

When the torrential rain continued to fall, the flash floods that came down from the heights washed the place clean. "

As a result, these mercenaries were a little disappointed.

The whereabouts of Nightingale and the intelligence team could not be found, so it seemed that the search could only continue.

But as Lin Rui said. The area has been washed by flash floods, and any traces are clean. There was no trace of Nightingale and the intelligence team to be found.

Lin Rui and the team discussed with each other and decided to follow the coordinates marked on the tablet.

If Nightingale and the others went in that direction, then if they continued to follow them, they would find their traces again.

After more than three hours, they got closer and closer to the coordinates marked on the electronic map. At the same time, more traces of clutter were found.

"Boss has footprints here, and here too. There are cigarette butts over there." Khan whispered.

Lin Rui walked over and leaned over to take a look. Sure enough, a series of footprints and a few cigarette butts were found.

Lin Rui's expression changed slightly, "We have to get out of here. This is the area where terrorists in the Holy Land are active."

"How is this possible? We are still several kilometers away from the location marked on the drawing." Sergey couldn't help but said.

"It is true that we are still several kilometers away from the location marked on the electronic map. But I can confirm that this place is an area where terrorists often operate.

If we want to get close to the camp of the Holy Land terrorist group without being detected, it is better to find another way. "Lin Rui shook his head.

"You mean, it is very likely that this is one of their outposts~www.wuxiahere.com~ or a temporary station or something." The actuary asked.

Lin Rui nodded, "These shoe prints here are not consistent with the shoe prints left by the intelligence team. They overlap each other, and there is not much grass around. This shows that there are often terrorists coming and going in this location.

Therefore, it is very likely that this is an outpost where they carry out vigilance. We haven't encountered the enemy yet, but it is clear that if we continue, we could easily encounter a large group of terrorists. "

"Damn it." Sergey shook his head. "Can't we just kill them and ask them about Nightingale's whereabouts? I think that's a good idea."

"First, you don't know how many enemies there are. Second, you don't know if the enemy is watching you. Third, you can't predict whether they will sound the alarm.

Another point is that we cannot yet determine whether the Nightingale has fallen into their hands. If you ask such a reckless question, you are directly showing your cards to the enemy.

Just listen to the boss. "The actuary tapped Kishi on the shoulder.
