Blair turned on the tablet and connected it to the speaker, and soon a piece of primitive jungle music with strong rhythm began to play.

"Woo——" This is the tribe members attracted by the music, except for the warriors who went out, there are many women and children staying in the gathering place.These people are more interested in things beyond the jungle than the relatively more knowledgeable fighters.

And Blair's personality also makes him habitually carry a lot of things that he thinks are very necessary, that are dispensable or even cumbersome in Jim's eyes, and very novel in the eyes of tribe members.

Jim glanced at Blair, who was joking with a few kids, the smartphone with no signal in the jungle had been reduced to a point-and-shoot camera, taking pictures of funny, shy, or curious faces.

"Maybe we should bring more things next time, at least we can develop the pictures we took." These words were said by Blair before going to bed last night.

Jim responded by slapping Blair on the forehead, quieting the restless bunny... oh no, the husky.That's right, even though he knew that Blair's mental body was a wolf, but Blair's personality made him insist that it was just a husky that looked like a wolf.

"I mean, we should leave them something." Blair took the hand off his forehead and looked sideways at Jim. "They always refuse to understand the outside world. I'm not saying that it's bad to keep your own traditions, but it doesn't mean you have to isolate yourself from the world. You can't deny that modern society is not useless."

Jim sighed silently, he didn't want to discuss this with Blair at all.The night is getting darker, and among the primitive tribes without modern recreational activities, apart from falling asleep early, the only thing left to do is the most primitive sport. Jim could have sworn he wasn't eavesdropping, but in the tribe, his instincts as a sentinel were maximized, the whole tribe was under his watch, and Blair was still talking about his anthropology...

Jim's ears moved suddenly, no longer immersed in the memory of last night.Not far away, Blair swayed her body, dancing wildly with the crowd in response to the beat.The music was loud, but it didn't affect Jim's hearing.

The warriors of the Horde returned, taking the captives with them. Jim frowned, then relaxed again.Tribes have tribal rules, and here, tribal rules override the law.Thinking of the embarrassment when someone injured a tribe in the name of developing the rainforest more than ten years ago and was hunted down thousands of miles, and it happened that Fan was in his hands... Jim can only comfort himself by saying that this is Peru, and he is just a The American police have nothing to do with it.

Jim patted Blair on the shoulder and turned off the music. "Our soldiers are back, with the captives."

The cheerful atmosphere disappeared in an instant, and the momentum of the entire tribe changed.Not only to meet the soldiers, but also to intimidate the captives.

So, Isaac's feeling of going out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's den is really not an illusion.

Jim glanced at the outsiders, almost all of them were shot by arrows and collapsed on the ground and were dragged away. There was only one person, although he looked embarrassed and even had shackles on his feet, he was indeed coming.

The leader waved his hand, and soon someone dragged the captives away.Then, he brought Isaac to Jim.

"He said he was hijacked." After the leader finished speaking, he added, "It's an American."

Jim watched the leader leave, he didn't believe that things would be so simple, and he wouldn't make blind judgments...but there was an existence beside him who sometimes assisted and sometimes held back.

"Hey, I'm Blair Sandburg, a detective from the Little Falls Police Department." Blair spoke first, "This is my colleague, Officer Jim Ellison."

Isaac raised his eyebrows, what a coincidence?I needed help, but two policemen jumped out?

As if seeing Isaac's distrust, Blair shrugged, "Sorry, we're here on vacation, and we didn't bring any documents."

After a quick calculation in my heart, Isaac didn't think he was worth being calculated by such a big hand. The current top priority is to know his exact location and get in touch with the outside world as soon as possible.So, he quickly adjusted his position, and said sincerely, "It's me who should say I'm sorry, what happened in the past two days... My name is Issac Costa... Sorry, I'm a bit paranoid." Turning his face, Isaac unabashedly showed his confusion and exhaustion.

"Oh, oh, it's okay." It was still Blair who spoke, "It's normal, and I understand that it's right for the abductee to be vigilant until they're completely sure of their safety."

Isaac gave a cooperative smile that was mixed with anxiety and reassurance.

Jim didn't speak all the time, he stood beside Blair silently observing the so-called victim, always feeling that things were not that simple.It's not that he is careless, it's just that more than 20 years of law enforcement career has taught him not to just look at the surface, otherwise the gutter will capsize sooner or later.Just like when he was kidnapped, he tried his best to appease and help a woman who was also kidnapped and locked up with him, and even tried his best to let her escape first, but it turned out that the woman was just In acting, her kidnapping was also her handiwork.

Jim remembered the attack the leader had mentioned, and a haze flashed in his eyes.The last time he and Blair came to visit was two years ago, and Blair took a lot of photos when they left, but when they came back this time, there were a lot fewer people in the photos. Blair didn't care too much, just thought that the few people left temporarily, Jim asked the leader directly, and was told that there was once a group of well-armed people who went deep into the jungle and had great malice towards the tribesmen, if they weren't familiar with the environment, they would have Their firepower not only lost a few people, but the existence of the tribe was still a question.So this time, when they discovered that there were suspected mercenaries going deep into the jungle again, they chose to act first and used sneak attacks to arrest everyone.If it is a misunderstanding, then all is well. If not, the tribal lynching is not a display.

What Jim is not sure now is whether the victim is a real victim or a game of stealth. After all, even though he behaves the same as ordinary victims, his intuition tells himself that there is an indescribable violation in it. .

"So, can you tell us what happened?" Blair took Isaac aside and sat down.

"I can't tell." Issac's voice was full of doubts and anxiety. He lowered his head and reached out to fiddle with the shackles, "I was driving to work in the morning, and there was a small car accident on the way, and I did it in a hurry. I got into a taxi, and when I woke up, I found that I had been kidnapped."

"Did they say why they kidnapped you?" Jim asked.

Isaac pursed his lips, Eliison was more suspicious than Blair, who was so silly and sweet, and he was wary of himself from the very beginning. "They want to know something from me."

"What is it?"

"I don't know." Isaac shook his head flatly, "I had an accident a few months ago, and the memory of that time disappeared after I woke up."

"Amnesia?" Blair's curiosity was piqued.

"Yeah, I even forgot my family when I woke up." He touched his head, "It's a deep wound, but luckily the hair has grown back." After a while of silence, "Is there a way to contact the outside world? I'm worried about my family."

Jim finally knew where the previous sense of disobedience came from.

Kidnapped people, especially those who have been violently treated, will always be very excited when they are rescued. There are traces of crying, fear, or gratitude.But even though the person in front of him looked confused and powerless from the beginning, his behavior was still very orderly. His calmness could be ignored if he was not discovered. Once he realized it, it was simply the biggest unreasonable thing.

Who gave him this confidence?

He's trying to keep Blair and me off guard. Jim judged like this, head injury, amnesia, kidnapped by unknown person, who would guard against such a person?What is his purpose?What is his relationship with the people who attacked the tribe before?And what is the purpose of the people who entered the jungle this time?

"Simon really has the foresight!" Blair obviously sympathized with Isaac's experience, "Don't worry, we brought a satellite phone, you can contact your family immediately." Patting Isaac on the shoulder, Blair ran to his temporary residence.

When did a satellite phone become a must-have for two police officers? Isaac showed a pleasant smile very cooperatively, followed Blair's figure with his eyes, and silently deepened his guard against these two people in his heart.

As an excellent sentinel whose hearing is so good that he can judge people's emotions by the change of heartbeat, Jim is noncommittal about Issac's duplicity, and he can guarantee that as long as he is still in the jungle, no one will try to play tricks under his eyes.

Isaac, who hadn't opened the door to the new world at this time, didn't know what kind of creature the sentinel was against the sky, so he pretended to be innocent with peace of mind, but he didn't know that his vest had already dropped a layer in front of the person he wanted to guard against.

The author has something to say: Blair and Jim are from the American drama "The Sentinel", a drama in 96, and the origin of the legendary Sentinel guide.There are sentinels and guides in spirit, but there is no mutual attraction in the legend, but the passion between the male sentinel and the female sentinel, almost playing on the beach...
