Chapter 190 We Have Found Something 836 Turning the creature onto its back, Calista discovered the source of the blood. The deer had been injured, but the wound wasn't deep. It was a crossbow injury.

In this area, many of the less fortunate crafted their own crossbows. The weapons were fairly effective mainly because the materials were easy to find. They were sufficient for hunting small animals.

"Rupert, what do your dad use for hunting?" Calista smiled at the boy.

Rupert quickly explained in detail. “Dad uses a crossbow he made himself. Most of the men here use the same. They also set traps. But Dad said, to avoid disputes, he purposely made his arrowheads cross- shaped, not triangular." "Such a good boy." Calista murmured, looking down at the cross-shaped wound on the deer. How lucky that I stumbled upon this evidence just when I needed it. This deer is proof that the boy's father has been here. And since they're just ordinary people, to have been able to hit such a nimble deer, it must have been distracted. Perhaps it was cating or drinking....

Following the shot, the boy's father realized that his crossbow had done little damage to the deer. It could also have been due to his exhaustion at the time, leaving him with insufficient strength and resulting in a shallow wound.

If he was tired, it must have been late in the day. He would likely have chosen to descend the mountain, given that his wife and child were waiting for him. However, on his way back, he might have fallen into skind of trap or stumbled upon something....

In this region, there are no large beasts, yet he has been missing for three days. As a seasoned hunter, he should be well- acquainted with things like traps. The only plausible explanation is that he stumbled upon a mysterious location and, unluckily, got trapped there, or perhaps even died there.

After carefully analyzing the situation and feeling confident that nothing had been overlooked, Calista asked, "Rupert, is there any water source nearby?" Rupert pondered for a moment. "Yes, there is a small lake." Calista's eyes lit up. “Take us there. There might be sclues." Rupert nodded, and the group, carrying the deer, headed toward the lake.

The elongated lake was quite clean, with beautiful aquatic plants flourishing beneath its surface. Judging from various footprints along the shore, it seemed like a common watering hole for both humans and animals. Rupert's father had likely chere to quench his thirst and happened upon a deer.

"Search around this area and see if there are any clues. Be thorough in your search." "Got it." Everyone she brought with her knew what she was looking for. They began to search meticulously around every inch of the area..

Rupert pouted, tugging at Calista's sleeve.

"My dad's going to be all right, isn't he?" His father had been missing for three to four days. To say he wasn't scared would be a lie, but deep down, he was always clinging to a sliver of hope, praying that nothing unfortunate had happened.

1/3 Chapter 190 We Have Found Something Calista didn't want to deceive him. Based on her judgment, if someone disappeared without a trace for three to four days, especially under these circumstances, the likelihood of them being dead was quite high.

Rupert seemed to have guessed her thoughts. He lowered his head, his eyes suddenly brimming with unshed tears. When they were searching for his father carlier, he had been the most anxious. He had endured an eight to nine-hour journey without uttering a single word, all with the hope of seeing his father alive.

"When Dad left, he toldto take good care of Mom and promised he would bring back meat. But... I don't want meat. I want Dad to cback...” search the FindNøvelWebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

He cried silently, not daring to let his voice grow louder, as if he feared others would be annoyed and he would lose his worth.

Calista listened to his sobs, sighing deeply after a long while. She drew him into her embrace, seemingly uncomfortable with others' proximity, yet she refrained from pushing him away.

"Don't cry... If something happens to your dad, I'll take you with me." Calista feared that Rupert's mother might not make it through and he would be left behind.

"No... I'm not leaving." Rupert suddenly pushed Calista, his face filled with fear. "I need to protect my mom...

Calista didn't blhim. At that moment, a message cfrom Derek.

"Ms. Calista, we've found something." Calista swept aside her melancholy emotions and put on a straight face again. She led Rupert and the others as they moved toward the location where Derek had been.

This was a dense forest, where a thick layer of leaves had accumulated on the ground. The rotting leaves underneath addecha slight musty smell to the air. With no shrubbery around, the area was devoid of small animals, making it even more secluded than other places. On the ground, there was a subtle depression. When Calista arrived, Derek used a stick to clear the area, revealing a cave that sloped downward. "Ms. Calista, there are signs of someone having slipped here. They must have fallen." "Dad?" Rupert was startled, wanting to move closer, but Levi held him back.

"Two of you stay here. The rest of you cdown with me. Keep a close eye on the child."

Although Rupert was anxious, he knew that his interference at this moment would only cause chads. As he watched Calista and the others fully equipped and ready to depart, he suddenly spoke to Calista with urgency. "Dad's bald. If you happen to see him....." "If he's there, I will bring him out." After she finished speaking, she followed Levi down.

The slope was incredibly steep. Given om the leak of the K Virus, they each meticulously checked their protective NO suits hidden beneath their clothing before descending, their gas masks firmly in place. 2/3 12:55 Fri, 31 May Mt.
