Raising his binoculars for a lengthy observation, Xiang Weiguo finally lowered them and waved his hand gently.
Gao Yuan and Luo Xingyu followed behind Xiang Weiguo, with the three maintaining a bit of distance between them as they moved forward slowly.
On the fifth day after launching the rescue mission, Gao Yuan and his team arrived at the outskirts of Liu Jiahui Village ahead of schedule, but the set time to actually implement the rescue with Yu Shunzhou was five days later, which meant tomorrow.
However, that didn't hinder the reconnaissance, nor did it prevent the possibility of starting the rescue mission earlier.
It was only near the village that the lay of the land became apparent; to the south of the village lay a small hill, and to the east, a river. To enter the village, one must cross a bridge.
Xiang Weiguo observed the bridge for a long time, and only after confirming there was no one on it did he consent to cross.
