Police intervention, 24-year-old Shandong man Huashan has been missing for 6 days! Suspected of going down the mountain alone late at night, lady | Huashan | Shandong
"He originally called his girlfriend to go to Huashan to play, but because his girlfriend suddenly had something to do at work, he ended up going alone."
On July 16th, Ms. Yu from Cao County, Heze, Shandong Province, sought help from the Xiaoxiang Morning Post Chenyi Help reporter. Her 24-year-old son, Lan Kai, was lost in the Huashan Scenic Area on July 11th.
On the morning of July 10th, Lan Kai took the K125 train from the nearby Shangqiu Station in Henan and arrived at Huashan Station in Weinan, Shaanxi on the evening of the 10th. I started climbing Huashan at around 3am on the 11th and appeared in the surveillance footage on the south side of Huashan East Peak at 10:49 pm on July 11th. Since then, there has been no trace

On July 14th, the fourth day after Lan Kai lost contact, Ms. Yu and her family arrived at the Huashan Scenic Area. "The first thing we did when we arrived was to check the surveillance footage and find the trace of our son," they said
Ms. Yu restored some of Lan Kai's movements before he lost contact through surveillance footage. At 4:36 pm on July 11th, I saw Lan Kai's figure on the front slope of a hotel in Dongfeng, Huashan. After 5:8 pm, Lan Kai checked in at the hotel. At 10:19 pm, Lan Kai came out of the restaurant carrying a backpack. "He asked the waiter how to get down the mountain," Ms. Yu said.
The last time I saw Lan Kai in the surveillance footage was at 10:49 pm that night. Half an hour after leaving the restaurant, Lan Kai's figure appeared in a camera surveillance screen on the south side of Dongfeng. After that, the surveillance screen could no longer find Lan Kai's figure. Ms. Yu said, "He stood there for a while and then left."
According to the chat records, since arriving at Huashan Station on the evening of July 10th, Lan Kai has been chatting with his girlfriend. Lan Kai stated that he would first find an hourly room and "go buy tickets after resting". At 3am on July 11th, Lan Kai woke up and set off for Mount Hua. At 3:48 am, Lan Kai took a photo of the entrance to Mount Hua for his girlfriend and started climbing Mount Hua. On the 11th, Lan Kai, who had been climbing the mountain, took many landscape photos along the way and shared them with his girlfriend. The last time he replied to his girlfriend was at 7:58 pm.

On the 12th, my girlfriend sent several messages to Lan Kai but did not receive a reply. She called her phone and the other party kept it turned off. From the 12th to the 13th, family and friends repeatedly dialed Lan Kai's phone, but it remained turned off. Mr. Qin, a friend of Lan Kai, introduced, "We reported to the local public security bureau in Huashan, and his family also reported to the police in Caoxian." On the evening of the 13th, Ms. Yu and her family drove from Caoxian, Shandong, until they arrived at the Huashan scenic area on the morning of the 14th. The trajectory of Lan Kai's actions was sorted out from the surveillance footage.
Scenic Area Response:
Family members have reported to the police and are cooperating with their investigation
Ms. Yu introduced that Lan Kai has been living with her family in Cao County and has a sunny and outgoing personality. On the 11th, she took photos of every tourist attraction and shared them with her girlfriend. Lan Kai's friend Mr. Qin introduced, "About a week before this, he had told us that he wanted to go to Huashan to play and planned to go to Shenzhen after returning from Huashan, but he hasn't returned since then."

On July 16th, the staff of the hotel where Lan Kai had previously checked in at Huashan Dongfeng confirmed to Chenyi Help reporter that Lan Kai did indeed check in at 5:08pm on the 11th. The hotel's accommodation format is similar to that of a youth travel agency, where purchasing a berth for check-in and checking out do not require any procedures, so passengers leave on their own. Often, passengers leave the hotel in the middle of the night to watch the sunrise without paying attention to how Lan Kai left.
The staff also explained that there are often people passing by on the south side of Dongfeng, but very few people come down the mountain. The Huashan Trail is narrow, and tourists who come to Huashan for sightseeing mostly walk up the mountain and take the cableway down the mountain. Due to the closure of the cableway at 8 pm in the Huashan scenic area, very few people go down the mountain at night. "Of course, there are also very few tourists who walk down the mountain."
Chen Yi helped the reporter call the rescue team of Huashan Scenic Area to inquire about the progress of the search and rescue. The staff said, "The specific situation still needs to be asked to the police. The family has already called the police, and we are also cooperating with the police."
The police officer responsible for handling this case responded, "We have a policy that individuals are not allowed to be interviewed. You can contact the Political Department of the Huayin Public Security Bureau." As of the time of publication, the reporter had repeatedly called the Huayin Public Security Bureau but was unable to reach them. Ms. Yu told Chenyi to help
