    Looking ahead, Hugo noticed pieces of clothing tied to branches at intervals, serving as markers.

    Feeling hopeful, Hugo followed the markers, with the extras trailing behind him. It was clear these signs

    were left intentionally.

    After searching for most of the night, they finally saw a glimmer of hope. The extras felt less exhausted

    and couldn’t help butment, “Anyone unfamiliar with this ce would get lost. Leaving these markers,

    whether for oneself or others, is a smart move!”

    Hugo didn’t respond, his focus entirely on finding Fourth.

    “Fourth!” he called out as he continued searching.

    But there was no answer.

    Undeterred, Hugo pressed on, following the trail of markers.

    He was convinced that Fourth was waiting for him!

    Meanwhile, Scarlett, along with First and Second, used the tracker to find the location. However, after

    searching the area, they couldn’t find Fourth.

    “Fourth!”

    “Fourth!”

    First and Second called out as they searched.

    Scarlett scanned the surroundings. Since the tracker indicated this was the spot, Fourth had to be here.

    But where could she be?

    At that moment, not far away, Second nced up, “Hey, there are two caves over there. I’ll go check them

    i“/iAlright!” iSecond /iinodded /iand was about to leave when First spoke up, “Second, be careful!”

    “Got it!” Second replied and started climbing up.

    Watching him climb safely, First followed suit, using the same footholds.

    However, after searching the caves, neither of them found anything. When they emerged, they exchanged disappointed looks and shook their heads.

    “Let’s head down,” First suggested.

    Second nodded.

    So, they carefully began their descent.

    But as they were climbing down, Second’s foot slipped, and he tumbled down.

    “Second!” First shouted.

    Scarlett heard the shout and turned around. Seeing Second rolling down, she immediately ran over.

    “Second!” Scarlett rushed to him, her worried expression quickly scanning over him. “Are you okay? Did

    you hurt yourself anywhere?”

    Second had some minor scrapes on his face and arms. He just frowned a little and shook his head dismissively. “Scarlett, I’m fine, don’t worry. It’s just that Fourth isn’t up there!”

    He sounded a bit disappointed.

    “It’s okay. Even if she’s not here, Fourth must be waiting for us somewhere!” Scarlett said reassuringly.

    Second nodded in agreement.

    Just then, First came down and rushed over to Second. “Hey, are you alright?”

    “I’m fine. I just slipped and fell, no big deal!” Second replied.

    “Let me see!” First leaned in, examining the scratches on Second’s face with a furrowed brow. “You’re

    hurt!”

    “It’s just a small scratch, nothing serious!”

    “No way, why don’t you head back up? Scarlett and I can keep looking here,” First suggested.

    “Going back up would take too much time and effort. I’d rather stay here with you guys. Besides, it’s just a

    scratch, really not a big deal!” Second insisted.

    “But…”

    At that moment, Second, sitting on the ground, seemed to feel something under his hand. He picked it up

    and looked at it.

    All three of them froze.

    Second nced at what he was wearing on his hand, then at what First had on his wrist, and finally looked

    at Scarlett in surprise.

    “Scarlett, it’s Fourth’s watch!”

    Scarlett took the watch and examined it carefully. There were no bloodstains or any signs of damage.

    She felt a wave of relief wash over her.

    Looking around, her ieyes /isparkled with hope. “Fourth’s watch is here, which means she was here. If we

    keep searching, we’ll definitely find her!”

    Second nodded firmly.

    “Come on, get up!” Scarlett helped him to his feet.

    “I’m fine, Scarlett!” Second got up quickly, but the sudden movement pulled at his shoulder, causing him to

    gasp in pain.

    “What happened?” Scarlett asked with concern.

    “It’s nothing, just moved too quickly!” Second replied hastily.

    “Did you hurt your shoulder?” First asked.

    “Not a chance!” Second quickly said, avoiding First’s attempt to check him. “Scarlett, let’s focus on finding

    Fourth!”

    Scarlett looked at him, knowing that despite her worries, they had to keep searching.

    Looking around, “Let’s search in that direction!”

    First nodded and was about to move when he suddenly noticed something.

    “Wait, Scarlett!” he called out, heading forward.

    Scarlett and Second watched him and followed.

    First untied a strip of fabric from a branch and turned to Scarlett. “Scarlett, isn’t this from the clothes

    Fourth was wearing?”

    Scarlett took it and examined it, then nodded. “Yes, it’s the same fabric from the outfit Fourth wore at the

    studio entrance that day!”

    First looked ahead and noticed that every few steps, more fabric strips were tied to mark the way.

    “Scarlett, look, there’s imore /iahead!” First pointed out.

    So, they followed the markers. Although they were spaced out, they could always spot the next one.

    “These must be signs Fourth left for us!” Second said excitedly.

    Scarlett felt a bit of relief seeing the markers. At least when Fourth left these, she was safe. There were no signs of a struggle or any tracks indicating a chase, which meant she did this in apletely safe

    situation.

    “Scarlett, let’s go. As long as we follow the markers, we’ll find Fourth!” First said, looking at Scarlett.

    Scarlett’s eyes finally showed a glimmer of hope. She nodded firmly, “Yes, let’s go.”

    And so, the three of them continued forward.

    Meanwhile, inside the cave, Fourth was leaning against a rock. She thought she heard noises outside and

    tried to open her eyes, but she was too tired, hungry, sleepy, and cold. Her whole body felt ufortable,

    and her eyelids seemed to be fighting each other, refusing to open ino /imatter ihow /ihard she tried.

    Scarlett, Daddy, Brother…

    Fourth murmured softly…

    Deep down, she kept telling herself that she had to wake up, she had to.

    Just then, a helicopter came swooping in, its loud noise and swirling wind jolting Fourth awake from her

    slumber.

    Fourth opened her eyes and looked outside. The sun had risen, casting light into the cave. She was sitting

    on the ground, wanting to stand up, but she had no strength left.

    Watching the helicopter hover outside, Fourth tried to call out, but her lips moved without making a sound.

    In the end, she watched helplessly as the helicopter hovered at the cave entrance for a moment before flying away…

    Fourth knew that the people on the helicopter hadn’t spotted her.

    “Daddy… Scarlett!” she murmured, tears of helplessness streaming down her face.
