There weren't any obstacles on the road, and from a distance, Chu Guodong could see a group of people standing on the street. As they drew near, the three cars came to a stop.
"Mr. Chu, why have you come back?"
As soon as the car stopped, a crowd of villagers hurried to the front of the car. Chu Guodong rolled down the window, and a middle-aged man quickly approached to ask.
"We have a bit of a situation and need to return to Liancheng Base," Chu Guodong said, especially mindful of the villagers and the family members of those who might be missing. He didn't want to alarm them by saying he suspected there were problems with Liancheng Base.
Zhao Rui, who was driving the car with Chu Guodong, turned his head and said, "Folks, don't worry, we will remember to help look for your missing people."
Chu Guodong nodded to show that he certainly wouldn't forget and would inform them as soon as there was any news.
