Chapter 695: Alarm Bells Ringing
Liu Cheng first let the drone return, to avoid alerting the enemy, and then took out his mobile phone and called Branch Chief Tao.
Qiao Shengli waited for him to finish the call and return, and asked curiously: "Aren't you afraid of kicking an iron plate?"
"What iron plate?" Liu Cheng asked knowingly.
"Building such a high-walled building secretly in such a hidden place, it won't be an ordinary person." Qiao Shengli raised her eyebrows and said: "Could it be the very powerful kind?"
Liu Cheng curled his lips: "I am handling the case normally and openly. It doesn't matter who I encounter."
After saying the righteous words, Liu Cheng lowered his posture a little and said: "Furthermore, my idea is exactly the opposite of yours. This courtyard is built in such a remote place, which doesn't mean it's the very powerful kind you mentioned. It just shows that it cannot see the light. So, let it see the light."
Liu Cheng took a deep breath, turned to look at Jiang Yuan, Su Lei, and others, and said: "Like this, I will send a few people to take the drone around the back to ensure that no one escapes. We will guard the front, and wait for reinforcements to arrive before going up."
Jiang Yuan and others had no opinion.
Only Mu Zhiyang said softly: "Distribute the equipment to everyone. Can you bring me a shield for reinforcements? It's best to have a gun."
"I'll ask, don't think about guns." Liu Cheng looked at Jiang Yuan and others after speaking: "Team Leader Jiang, would you like to go back first?"
"No, I'll wait to scan the scene." Jiang Yuan usually takes good self-protection measures. For example, he basically didn't participate in the autopsy scene with two forensic pathologists. However, self-protection is one thing, and fear and retreat is another.
Fear will lead to mistakes.
Liu Cheng didn't say much, put on handcuffs, police batons, and stun guns, specially checked the law enforcement recorder on his chest, and quickly and briefly assigned tasks.
The mountain road looks close, but it is far to walk, and several people have to act as hidden as possible, so the detour work is not easy. Fortunately, the drone's performance is good, and it can monitor the courtyard from a long distance and help indicate the road.
Jiang Yuan, as a technician, stayed with Zhan Kan, Su Lei, Qiao Shengli, Liu Jinghui, and others.
Mu Zhiyang guarded with a throwing baton, his mind very uneasy, slipping back and forth.
Su Lei soon got tired of watching and greeted Mu Zhiyang to sit down and rest.
Mu Zhiyang shook his head, holding the throwing baton, and said: "No, I can't sit still now. We have too few people. If there are really criminals coming here, it will be very difficult for Pang Da and me to protect a group of people."
"You are all wearing police uniforms, where would criminals come for the police."
"That's why it's dangerous. What if people are just this vicious."
Su Lei said helplessly: "If there are really criminals coming, we will just run. Look at the way Liu Captain and the others walked over, they can't walk very far in an hour. We see people coming, and we can run away."
"We run slower." Mu Zhiyang looked back at Jiang Yuan and said in a low voice: "I can run away, but you may not be able to run away. If I go back alone, Political Commissar Huang will peel my skin."
Qiao Shengli rolled her eyes and said: "Like this, if there are criminals chasing us later, you just guard under that pine tree in front and let us run first."
"What if they bypass me?"
"They won't. That is the only way up the mountain. You just need to guard it. We run up the mountain, then go down the mountain, and there should be a highway. If you are worried, just break for us. As long as you fight to the death, the enemy cannot capture this key point, and others are safe."
Mu Zhiyang's ears rang with alarm bells. This guy, not joking, is really pushing himself to a dead end.
Fortunately, the criminals didn't really come up the mountain.
Reinforcements arrived before dusk at the scene of the case.
A total of more than a dozen police cars, loaded with criminal police from the Guangju Bureau, as well as police officers Tao Lu borrowed from other branches, arrived at the scene. Along with them was a squad, fully armed with live ammunition.
The observation position where Jiang Yuan and others were was the closest and best, so Tao Lu set up the command post here and sent people to search the courtyard in front.
Mu Zhiyang relaxed all of a sudden and couldn't help but say: "Next time I go on such an external mission, I should really be equipped with a gun."
"Don't you find it troublesome?" Tao Lu was a bit surprised. Scenes that require guns are very rare now, but as long as the gun is on the body, the report is indispensable.
Mu Zhiyang sighed: "It should be used when it should be used, don't give me a small smash."
"I'll arrange it for you next time." Tao Lu glanced at Jiang Yuan, feeling a bit worried in his heart.
This is like the 270,000 mu of paddy fields newly bought at home, which is worth spending huge manpower and material resources to build embankments to protect them.
Ahead.
Liu Cheng picked up the walkie-talkie and said in a low voice: "All units in position, is the assault team ready?"
"Ready." The assault team was composed of armed police, holding long guns and shotguns. In the distance, there were two groups of snipers lying down. In terms of domestic configuration, this is already considered top-tier.
It was because Tao Lu trusted Jiang Yuan so much that he could mobilize all parties at the first time.
The person furthest from the police identity at the scene was Qiao Shengli. She regarded the police action as a rare experience, opened her lips slightly, took a breath, and observed with wide eyes.
Liu Cheng asked Tao Lu for instructions again, and after getting permission, he started the countdown:
"Three, two, one... go, go, go..."
Liu Cheng's voice fell quickly, and in the distance, a "thump" sound was heard, and the shouting rose suddenly:
"Police! Police!"
Everyone at the scene became nervous.
Even Mu Zhiyang tightened the muscles on his ears.
Tao Lu also silently clenched his fists, looking ahead, and looking at the drone screen.
Ahead is vast green, and the screen only has the figures of the police.
Liu Cheng rushed into the building with several armed police, and there was no news for a long time.
"No one found. Repeat, no one found!"
When Liu Cheng's voice came again, Tao Lu and Qiao Shengli both breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, fortunately." Qiao Shengli patted her collar lightly.
Tao Lu glanced at her and said: "What's good about this? If you can't find anyone, you have to continue looking for people."
"I'm considering for you. It's impossible that everyone is not afraid of retaliation or something." Qiao Shengli said.
"The more people, the less afraid." Tao Lu's simple sentence. Why did he bring other branch people out this time? Isn't it to expand the scope?
Qiao Shengli was stunned, then laughed: "Sure enough, there are some exquisite things."
"It's not that complicated." Tao Lu waved his hand. He deliberately broke a little, so as not to have people's ideas similar to Qiao Shengli's, but he refused to say more.
Jiang Yuan waited for a while and said: "I'll search the scene."
Mu Zhiyang hurriedly followed.
Several people walked for a while with deep and shallow steps before entering the house.
This is a relatively petite house. The courtyard outside is four or five meters high, and the building inside is only three stories and more than ten meters high. One side leans against the cliff, and the other is built against the mountain, extending a section.
Calculating the area alone, it is estimated to be about 1000 square meters, much larger than ordinary people's houses, but compared to commercial buildings in the city, the area is much smaller.
Jiang Yuan first looked at the surroundings of the house. Various plants had blocked the road, indicating that for at least half a year, or even more than a year, no one had walked inside or outside the house.
No matter how good the house is, it will have problems if no one lives in it for a long time, not to mention this kind of house in the deep mountains. Of course, the building materials and level of the house itself are qualified, so it looks very good from a distance, but it already shows old state when viewed up close.
The failure to discover it in advance was also because the drone just now didn't dare to get too close.
Liu Cheng's expression was clearly a bit regretful.
If he could catch someone, this case would definitely have great progress. Now it is equivalent to catching only an empty nest, and the complexity has risen sharply. To a certain extent, the clues have not been seen, but the smell has already soaked out.
"The construction cost of this house is not low, and it is built against the mountain. It is impossible for the locals to build it." Liu Jinghui followed in and reminded in a low voice beside Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan nodded.
Liu Jinghui said again: "This kind of case must have iron-like evidence."
Jiang Yuan nodded again, and at the same time turned on the "Crime Scene Reconstruction" (temporary +1) skill. He also had a broad-spectrum skill temporary +1 that hadn't moved, and he would see the specific situation of the scene. ===== CHAPTER 696 =====
