Chapter 727: How Many More Days Can You Hold Out?

If there is a hidden camera inside the room, one that cannot be seen with the naked eye, turning on the phone's video function will reveal a flashing red dot.

Although not every camera can be detected this way, the vast majority cannot escape this trick.

Yu Dazhang did not want any slip-ups at this stage.

As for checking the room, it wasn't that he suspected the hotel of tampering inside; in fact, many of those hidden cameras are placed by guests themselves.

There are even people who specialize in this line of work, filming indecent content to sell to certain websites for profit.

With two officers stationed inside the room, Yu Dazhang and Captain Hua and the others left.

"I booked two extra rooms, right next door to this one."

Captain Hua produced two more keycards:

"One double room and one triple room — we can use them as our rest area."

Really reliable work... Yu Dazhang nodded in satisfaction.

Zhang Jiangke could sleep in peace, but the officers tasked with guarding him could not afford the slightest slack — they would have to take turns on watch.

Moreover, to prevent the guards from becoming overly fatigued, at least three shifts had to be arranged.

After a quick discussion among the three of them, one shift of officers would be assigned to stand guard during the day.

But after ten at night, the human body's biological clock easily brings on drowsiness, so the watch personnel needed to be rotated more frequently.

A handover every two hours, to ensure the guards remained in a clear-headed state at all times.

Over the next few days, a nationwide crackdown on human traffickers was launched.

More often than not, that's just how it goes — catching one person drags out a whole string of them.

Especially this time: the ones Yu Dazhang's side had caught were all veteran traffickers, and the connections within their circles alone were enough to keep criminal police across the country busy.

Even over in Songhai, Lv Zhongxin had even called Yu Dazhang to ask when he could rejoin the team.

Clearly, the First Brigade had also joined in this crackdown.

Naturally, Yu Dazhang couldn't go back — he had more important things to do.

These past few days, they had been running on rotating shifts, and Yu Dazhang himself had stayed at the hotel the entire time, never leaving for a step.

But he wasn't just sitting around waiting, either.

During this period, through his continuous interrogation of Zhang Jiangke, he obtained a great deal of key information.

Almost every day, veteran traffickers were brought onto the police's radar.

You have to understand, Zhang Jiangke was no ordinary trafficker.

The lowest-level people he dealt with were second-hand dealers like Zhang Qian.

The low-level small fry who personally took part in abductions couldn't even catch his eye.

The fifth day since checking into the hotel.

The members of the task force were all gradually growing restless.

Even Captain Xu and Captain Hua were no exception — the two of them had now started sighing and lamenting from time to time.

"If we keep catching people at this rate, Gu Ding Wen definitely won't dare show his face."

In the next-door room, Captain Xu complained to Yu Dazhang:

"Just waiting like this isn't a solution — for all we know, the other party has already fled abroad by now."

His worry was not without reason — after all, Gu Ding Wen had met Zhang Jiangke over in Old Burma, which meant he also had certain connections and a network over there.

And fleeing to Old Burma wasn't difficult.

As long as one had the right channels and was willing to spend the money, there would be people who specialized in smuggling him across.

One very important reason telecom fraud in northern Myanmar has run so rampant is that smuggling across the border is relatively easy.

"Do you have another way?" Yu Dazhang countered.
