The squad soldiers on site exchanged glances. 'Forty-eight hours ago? That was the day before yesterday, wasn't it? Then who were the three people who greeted us before?'
Chen Chuan said to the orderly behind him, "Wake everyone up, then re-examine this entire place."
The orderly saluted, slung his rifle over his back, and jogged toward the barracks.
Yuan Qiuyuan and Qin Qingque arrived immediately. Yuan Qiuyuan looked at the three corpses and let out a soft whistle. He looked up and asked, "Captain, is this an anomaly?"
"It's hard to say right now."
Chen Chuan didn't rush to judgment. He hadn't sensed any sign of his Second Self fading, which meant either there was another cause, or the anomaly wasn't severe.
Once everyone was awake, they searched the rest stop from top to bottom one more time, confirming there was no one else present besides the three bodies.
