Chapter 300 Drill Camp
"Tell me, Chip, what happened to your sister Natalie?" Jane stood in front of this useless man.
“What’s the matter?” Chip looked confused, shaking his head as if he hadn’t yet recovered from the effects of the medicine.
"Which white man did that cousin hook up with in town? The day before yesterday, she said she would bring me food, but she never showed up."
"Pa!"
Jack got so angry that he slapped him back, knocking back the rest of his words.
"Poof!" Chip was thrown directly into the snow, with blood oozing from his mouth and nose. The guy kneeling next to him was so frightened that he quickly moved on the ground with his knees. , move far to the side.
"She said she wanted to see you, but then she never showed up. You just stay in this hell place with peace of mind? Aren't you worried at all?"
Jack grabbed this kid's arm. The collar lifted him up from the ground into the air. The fist in his right hand clenched loudly, but could not fall down. He was worried that he would directly punch this little bastard to death.
"Jack, stop, we still have questions to ask." Jane tried to pull his arm hard, but found that she couldn't do it.
The old sheriff also hurriedly came up to help, but both of them couldn't move Jack's arm even half an inch. In the end, he snorted and let go.
Kip collapsed in the snow like mud, coughing desperately, and finally spit out two bloody teeth.
"The town is at least 20 miles away from here. Did she say how she would get here?"
Probably woken up by Jack's slap, the kid struggled to get up from the ground and saw To the old Sheriff.
"What did he mean? What happened to my sister?"
"What did he mean? What did he mean?"
Seeing that no one spoke, Chip's voice gradually became crying, as if he finally realized something was wrong.
Jack ignored Shabi and walked aside to send a message to Aaliyah and Braxton.
The reservation only has 3G signals. The signal becomes extremely poor when it is a little farther from the population centers, and the efficiency of making phone calls is not as good as text messages.
"What happened to my sister?" Chip's voice had turned into a roar. Jane and the old police chief looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Corey Lambert, who had been silent all this time, suddenly pointed toward the northwest with a low voice.
"I found her raped and dead there. That's why we came to you, child."
"No, no. This is impossible!"
Chip shook his head desperately and looked at the old sheriff. When he saw that he avoided his gaze, he collapsed, banged his head on the ground, and let out a heart-rending cry.
——
The ambulance finally came, and they came to take away the body in the house. Braxton also came with Aaliyah.
Seeing the wretched appearance of her brother, Aaliyah picked up the shovel used to shovel snow behind the house and beat him all over his face. Chip lay on the ground, not even daring to squeak.
Jack did not pay attention to the family interaction between the siblings. Instead, he came to Corey who had been looking into the distance thoughtfully and asked, "Natalie doesn't have a car. What if she wants to come here to see her brother?" , what method do you think she will use? "
"I need a map." Corey stretched out his hand to the old police chief. The other party rolled his eyes and returned to his police car. After a while, he took one. A plastic map spread out on the hood of the car. "This is the location where I found Natalie, near the tree line of the mountains." Corey confirmed a point with his finger, and then drew toward the lower right of the map.
"This is where we are now, and it is also the nearest house, about 4 miles (6.5 kilometers) away."
"There are no buses at night. If she chooses to take a ride, she will probably choose to go to Rand Town. If you don't want to take a special detour, the driver will drop her off here."
His finger fell on a nearby north-south road, "This is the closest, less than two miles, if you walk. It’s barely acceptable.”
“I guess she was kidnapped near the highway, or shortly after getting off the highway, but it has been two days now, and there have been several consecutive snowstorms, even if there are no traces left. , I can’t see anything now.”
Jian’s finger crossed a thin line on the map, “Where does this branch of the road lead to?”
The old sheriff came over and took a look, "That's a drilling rig camp of an energy company in Texas. They built a simple road. There are prefabricated houses for workers to live there, but there won't be anyone there until the end of spring. Now, It’s too cold.”
Jack measured the distance between the drilling machine and where Natalie’s body was found, and found that the distance between the two was at least 6 miles, which was nearly 10 kilometers.
He felt that he had found his target, but it seemed impossible because when he found Natalie, her feet were bare, which meant that she was in a hurry when she ran away and she didn't even have time to put on shoes.
An 18-year-old girl ran barefoot for nearly 10 kilometers in the snow at more than 10 degrees below zero, and finally died of ruptured alveoli instead of freezing to death. This does not sound like something that human beings can do.
Even if he were to come, he would probably have to cast one or two healing spells on himself halfway through.
But Jack thought of what the hunter had said before, "Mr. Lambert, do you remember what you said yesterday when you showed us the body? You said that girl was a tenacious fighter."
Cory suddenly looked up at Jack, his eyes becoming very solemn.
"You also suspect that she is from here"
Jian covered her mouth in disbelief, "But the two sides are at least 6 miles apart!"
Jack did not answer Instead, he looked at the old police chief and asked, “Is there really no one there?”
"There should be some guys in charge of security who look after the expensive equipment in the winter. They are a bunch of drunkards who often go to the town to cause trouble."
The old sheriff looked at the map and his tone became very determined, " It seems that the situation has gradually become clearer, Corey, I want you to go to the drilling camp with us tomorrow. I remember they installed a lot of cameras nearby. "
Corey nodded, and then shook his head. "It's not a good idea to hunt them where wolves gather."
Hearing this, Jack looked thoughtfully at Braxton, who had been staying with his fiancée not far away, and looked at his His posture seemed to be debating whether to break up the fight or help his wife beat his brother-in-law together.
What if a tiger wearing wolf skin is mixed into the wolf pack in advance?
With this thought in his mind, he raised his hand and waved to the other party, "Braxton, I remember you said that you once worked as a safety contractor for a mining company here?"
Not far away Braxton's eyes lit up when he heard this. Ever since he returned to this hellish place, he has been feeling aggrieved. Now it's finally his turn to show off?
