"It must be hundreds of kilometers! I heard that it was in City Z. After his family picked him up, we also contacted them on their own initiative to ask how Xu Lei is currently recovering. However, I speculate that the situation should not be optimistic, because his family is always unwilling to say anything more, just saying that he is still in a mental hospital for rehabilitation treatment." Lou Yushan said.

Yuan Muye nodded and then asked, "What's going on in the animal group suicide incident mentioned in the information?"

Lou Yushan said, "It's quite weird to say this. There is a deer called Xiaodie in the northern mountainous area. It is a small herbivore. Since there is no threat from natural enemies in the local area, the population of Xiaodie here is very rich. Tourists often see groups of Xiaodie in the mountains eating grass... On the day of the incident, tourists took a picture of their collective suicide with their mobile phones under the cliff. There were about 7 to 8. Basically, they jumped off the cliff without hesitation and all fell to death on the spot!"

Yuan Muye: "Apart from this animal, are there any other animals that commit such collective suicide?"

After hearing this, Lou Yushan nodded and said, "Yes! But that's all our later speculation, because no one saw or photographed the suicide scenes of these animals. However, when our rescue team was searching for the corpses of tourists, they found many animals suspected of being killed after jumping off the cliff and committing suicide!"

Along the way, Yuan Muye and his friends had already learned a rough idea of ​​the matter... They can tell Yuan Muye and the others about the experience that the content in the information and the situation described by Lou Yushan are just appearances, and reality is often more strange and complex than these data.

The car was moving forward, and they rushed to the Jinjunshan Scenic Area before noon. Lou Yushan told them that due to the impact of the suicide incident, the number of tourists who formed a group has dropped sharply in the past few days, but this did not affect the individual tourists who came here. Many tourists who joined the fun also went to Luoxia Peak to check in...

At noon, Lou Yushan invited them to have dinner in the staff cafeteria of the scenic spot management office. He said to Yuan Muye and others a little sorry, "I should have invited you to taste the regional food here... But to be honest, the special snacks sold to tourists in the scenic spot are really not very good, far less delicious than the working meals in our staff restaurants, and are also cleaner and more hygienic."

In fact, it is not necessary to say that this is true. Yuan Muye and the others are also aware that food at tourist attractions is usually sold in one go. After all, no one will frequently visit the same attraction for a bite, so the snacks and restaurant business here basically do not expect any repeat customers.

After lunch, Lou Yushan took them to the guesthouse designated by the Scenic Area Management Office. Although it is nominally a guesthouse, it looks like a four-story building, but the decoration and configuration inside are definitely better than the five-star hotel.

In Lou Yushan's own words, our unit's guesthouse never opens to the public, only entertains leaders from above and VIPs from other provinces who come to inspect...

Yuan Muye asked as soon as he heard this, "Are there any other residents in the guesthouse besides us?"

Lou Yushan smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, you are the only residents in the past two months. Since the frequent suicides occurred, no VIPs from other provinces have come to inspect... In fact, this is also a good thing for our unit. At least we don't have to serve these old men who eat, drink, and play for free!"

After completing the check-in procedures, Lou Yushan sent the room cards to Yuan Muye and the others one by one and said, "Everyone will have a good rest tonight. I will come to pick you up tomorrow morning and go directly to Luoxia Peak... Oh, by the way, if you have any needs, just go to the front desk to tell me!"

After hearing this, Zhuanfeng asked in a deep voice, "The equipment to enter the mountain..."

When Lou Yushan heard this, he quickly said, "Don't worry about this. We are ready. I will bring it with you together when you leave tomorrow morning!"

After Lou Yushan left, Yuan Muye and his friends took the room card to go to the room. Lou Yushan wanted to open a room for each of them, but in the end he was rejected by Zhuanfeng! First, because he didn't want to waste it, and secondly, because he was for safety reasons, so they never slept alone when they went out on the 54th. Even Zeng Nannan often lived in a suite with Zhang Dajun so that they could take care of each other.

After several people returned to the room and put down their luggage, they walked out of the guesthouse again. Yuan Muye and the others wanted to inquire about the people in the scenic area as ordinary tourists, what was the situation of the "suicide incident" they saw?

Unexpectedly, the weather was not good that afternoon. They went out and walked for a while and it started to rain. The few people who did not bring an umbrella could only helplessly trap in a souvenir shop waiting for the rain to stop...

Dajun believed that meeting was fate, so he picked a few souvenirs under the boss's enthusiastic recommendation and prepared to take them back to give them to relatives and friends. It is estimated that the business has not been very good these days. After the business was done, the boss's wife started chatting with them.

"Boss, I've heard that several tourists have died. What happened to you?" Dajun said while eating melon seeds and drinking tea.

The boss lady pretended to be mysterious as soon as she heard this, "How many? Are there more than a dozen?"

As soon as Dajun heard this, he leaned over to the boss's wife and said, "Tell us what's going on? Anyway, today is not good, and I'm idle too..."

The boss's wife didn't hide it after hearing this, and sighed, "Actually, it was nothing at the beginning. There were no one or two people who could not think of it every year in any scenic spot. Who knew that the more people died, the more people... I'm counting, there are already 16 people now!"

Yuan Muye, who was standing beside him, interrupted and asked, "Then do you remember when the first suicide incident happened?"

The boss's wife thought for a while and said, "It must have been before the Chinese New Year. Now I'm quite scared because I've seen the man who committed suicide before he died. He even came to our store to buy a souvenir!"

After hearing this, the few people looked at each other, but no one spoke.

The boss lady said to herself, "You said it's a good person, why can't you think so? Don't look at me doing business in the scenic area all day long, but I've been to Luoxia Peak once. I stood there and looked down and my legs were weak. I really don't know where the tourists who killed themselves got the courage to jump down?!"

"I heard that someone seemed to survive?" Dajun said.
Chapter completed!
