The heavy rain grew fiercer. Seeing it was getting dark soon.

The captain feared that rescue would be even more difficult after dark, so he gritted his teeth and decided to risk going up the mountain.

Tobias followed the rescue team with a dark face, full of resentment.

The search dog led the way, sniffing around with its head down.

Soon, it stopped and barked in front of a cluster of bushes.

A team member pushed aside the wet branches and picked up a foil wrapper from the muddy ground.

"Captain, we found something!" Everyone immediately gathered around.

It was a wrapper dirtied by muddy water, but the brand logo on it could still be vaguely seen.

It was an expensive imported condom brand.

Before I could react, Tobias excitedly called out.

"This is Andrew's!"

He snatched the wrapper and examined it from all angles.

"That's right! It's this brand! Damn, so expensive. I asked him to buy me some and he refused, but he's generous when it comes to using them himself!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, he realized what he had said and quickly shut up.

But it was too late. Everyone's eyes became meaningful.

Missing, adventure, deep mountains, Lover's Valley, condoms...

When these words were combined together, even an idiot would know what had happened.

The rescue captain's face became extremely ugly. He glared at Tobias and said in a low voice, "Keep searching!"

The search dog pulled the rescue personnel step by step in one direction, and at the end of that direction was a pile of dirt and stones.

Could this be the cave the sparrow mentioned? Were they about to be rescued?

At this critical moment, the sparrow suddenly flew over and let out a sharp screech.

[Collapse! Water is flooding in! Half the cave entrance is blocked by mud and rocks!]

[They can't get out! Oh! The man is using a rock to smash at the crack, but it's useless!]

My heart jumped violently.

No, I couldn't let them be discovered now!

Half blocked meant there was still a chance to rescue them!

Tobias also saw where the search dog was pointing. Like he'd been injected with adrenaline, he excitedly shouted.

"Found them! They must be down there!"

He yelled at the rescue team, "Quick! Andrew must be inside!"

I watched as several team members with shovels had already rushed over.
