Without responding to Gong Daoyang's suggestion, Du Heng continued to look around and then gazed up into the distance.
"What are you looking for?"
"Gong, we're missing someone. Yu just told me there were six people. But we only have these three here, plus the two he's with—that's only five. We're still short one person."
Gong Daoyang followed Du Heng's gaze and began to search as well, instructing others to look further ahead. Despite searching an area of almost fifty meters, there were still no traces.
The spot where the tricycle had tumbled down was a nearly vertical cliff, almost thirty meters high, with absolutely no footholds. In such terrain, it was even more improbable that someone tumbling down with the vehicle could have gotten snagged on anything.
The search proving fruitless, Gong Daoyang frowned and said, "Maybe your man got it wrong. After all, sitting in the tricycle's carriage, no one could clearly see exactly how many people there were."
