It was already twelve o'clock in the evening when the search and rescue personnel followed the traces and found the house halfway up the mountain. In the night, the cold snow hit their faces, then turned into water droplets that wet their faces, and then condensed into frost in the low temperature that hung on their faces.

After the high-intensity flashlight swept across the yard halfway up the mountain, the search and rescue team quickly slid towards the yard.

The temperature on the top of the mountain was already low, and they encountered cold air and heavy snow during the search, which covered up many traces, which is why they arrived at this time.

The front door was ajar. When the flashlight was shone inside, a spacious courtyard with tiled floor could be seen.

"Is there anyone there?" the rescuers shouted.

There were several calls, each one louder than the last, but there was no response.

A rescue worker said: "Everyone should be asleep at this time, right?"

Rescue workers: "Old people in the countryside don't sleep so early now, I guess there's no one here. The snow is getting heavier, we have to go in to avoid the wind and snow."

"If the elderly in the village don't go to bed early, what else can they do to entertain themselves?" The search and rescue personnel tentatively pushed open the half-open door.

"Because the elderly nowadays use their phones." The companion replied: "Last time, a village suddenly had a mudslide in the middle of the night, but all the elderly in the village were fine. Do you know why?"

"What?"

“Because those elderly people gathered in the spacious areas of the village to watch short videos on their mobile phones.”

“…Why don’t you brush it at home?”

The companion turned around and smiled at the person who asked the question: "Because the signal is bad."

"..."

"There's a chimney on this house, and there's some smoke. It should be the kitchen. Let's go check it out."

Seeing that there were obvious signs of life in the yard, the search and rescue personnel did not dare to rush in. They just stood under the eaves to avoid the snow. However, the weather was getting colder and colder, and it was unbearable to just stand there, so they had to consider the issue of heating.

The kitchen door was also ajar, and when you got closer you could smell the warm air coming from inside.

The search and rescue workers looked at each other and reached out to push the door.

"Oh——"

The warm breath blew over them, making everyone's faces look comfortable.

The flashlight swept around, and as expected, everyone saw You Jinge and the other two sleeping on the pile of firewood.

The search and rescue personnel were delighted and stepped forward quickly.

"Wake up." He pushed Zhen Wei who was on the outside.

After pushing several times, Zhen Wei finally opened his eyes blearily.

"Ah!!" Zhen Wei was blindfolded and faced the search and rescue personnel, she was so frightened that she screamed.

"What happened?"

You Jinge and Zhang Xin were awake in their minds but not in their bodies. They thought they had sat up, but in the eyes of others, they were lying in a pile of firewood, frowning and twisting their brows, their lips moving but not making a sound.

The search and rescue personnel knew at a glance that the two people were frightened, and they rushed forward to massage them to help them wake up.

You Jinge and Zhang Xin slowly opened their eyes and stared at the masked face in front of them, their adrenaline rushing wildly.

Zhang Xin used all his strength to push the man away, and You Jinge used his ability to drill into the other person's mind... Suddenly, she felt a pain in her head, her eyes went black, and her ability was instantly interrupted.

"Etc., etc!"

The search and rescue personnel nearby stepped forward to stop them and shouted: "Don't do it, we are here to save you!"

"What are you doing? Stop!" Zhen Wei on the side felt his head buzzing and didn't hear a word. He only saw those people "beating" You Jinge and Zhang Xin. He was so angry that he turned over and reached out to pull those people.

He was so angry that he pushed the strength of his hands to its full potential. Several search and rescue workers were not paying attention and were directly pulled away by him. They were caught off guard and sat down on the ground with their heavy clothes.

Zhen Wei stood in front of You Jinge and Zhang Xin, looking at the newcomers with an expression as if he wanted to eat them.

Rescue workers: "..."

The curse words almost came out of his mouth.

But when he looked more closely, he found that the eyes and expressions of the three people were still a little vague, and it was obvious that they had not yet fully woken up.

The search and rescue workers suddenly laughed out of anger.

However, I still gave a thumbs up to Zhen Wei's loyalty.

They didn't move forward, but found the kitchen light switch and turned it on.

The sudden dazzling light made You Jinge and the other two close their eyes. Their thoughts slowly returned to their minds, and they could clearly see the words "Rescue Team" written on each other's clothes.

The three of them shrank their heads and smiled awkwardly on their faces.

Hey, it’s our own people. I’m so sorry.

The rescuers saw the expressions on their faces and felt helpless and amused, but they were also genuinely relieved.

These three people are quite lively, it seems that everything is fine.

A rescuer grabbed two handfuls of dry pine needles from the ground and stuffed them into the stove that was about to go out. He blew on them and the fire started again. He added some dry firewood and then pulled down his mask and turned to You Jinge and the other two and said:

"Are you awake?"

"Yeah, yeah!" The three of them nodded obediently.

You Jinge seemed to remember something, her eyes widened, she patted her chest in fear, and apologized repeatedly to the search and rescue personnel whose brains she had just invaded: "I'm so sorry, I thought..."

The other party was wearing a flashlight and had his face covered. She was not clear-headed and could not see the words on his clothes clearly. She thought that this group of people were the criminals who were chasing Hu Tao and Fang Rou.

This guy's brain was almost tangled by her.

The rescue worker sat on the ground, shaking his head. He felt dizzy and nauseous, and for a moment he could not remember anything. However, because his face was covered, his companions did not notice anything unusual and just thought he had been hit hard.

You Jinge felt extremely guilty and didn't care about the pain in his head. He quickly stepped forward to ask about the man's concern, and then used his ability to comfort the other person.

This is a new self-defense ability she has discovered. It can disrupt the opponent's thinking and also calm the opponent's mental frenzy.

After discovering this ability, she even thought about becoming a psychologist or something. She heard that this profession is quite profitable nowadays.

The rescuer asked: "Are you just the three of you?"

Zhang Xin recovered and replied calmly: "We found a friend in the mountains, and he has been sent to the hospital in town by the owner of this courtyard."

You Jinge quickly took out his cell phone to check, and saw Ye Jixiang had sent him a message and photos, saying that Hu Tao and Fang Rou were out of danger.

Seeing this, she was completely relieved and looked up to answer the rescuer, "The person is out of danger and is now in the town hospital, in room five on the second floor of the inpatient department."

Show them the photos again.

The rescuers who received the accurate information immediately passed the message back.

Looking at the three people lying in the firewood pile completely relaxed, the rescuers also showed expressions of admiration to them.

During rescue missions, they had seen many people hurt and exclude others in order to be rescued first, but this was the first time they saw someone risking his life to save a friend.

If You Jinge knew what they were thinking, he would definitely remain silent.

To be honest, she didn't want to come and rescue Hu Tao and Fang Rou in person. She just wanted to provide information to the police. But when she thought about what Boss Xiao Ba seemed to be reminding her of, she hesitated in the car and decided to go.

She remembered that Boss Xiaoba had thought of giving Hu Tao Fang Rou abilities, but they didn't catch them...

Zhen Wei, who was standing by, just breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the person in front of him was not a crisis, but his stomach started to growl.

He turned to You Jinge and said, "Ask Ye Jixiang if we can use the food in the kitchen to make a meal. We will make up for it for them later."

You Jinge was also hungry, so he called to ask.

Ye Jixiang and Ning He naturally agreed, knowing that there were rescue workers on the scene. They said that if there were not enough vegetables, they could go to the vegetable garden nearby to pick them.

The rescue team in front of them came specifically to find the three people. Now that they have found them and it is getting dark, they are not in a hurry to go back after reporting the news. They touch their equally hungry stomachs and decide to stay and have a firewood meal and leave again at dawn tomorrow.

Hu Jianguo felt relieved when he received the news that his daughter was out of danger. He took out his cell phone and called his wife.

As expected, I was scolded, and my heart was relieved even more.

After handing over the tasks at hand to his colleagues and subordinates, he immediately rushed to the hospital where his daughter was.

After being beaten by his wife to vent his anger, he can go home and sleep again.
