In a cave in the forest by the roadside.
No one spoke.
Or rather, no one was willing to talk.
Yan Zhen dialed Jiang Ting's number and walked out of the cave.
This time, Song Chengyi did not get angry or shout. He was very quiet, and his expression did not change much.
Just like that, he randomly found a rock and sat down.
Then, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and put one in his mouth. Then, he took out a lighter.
Crack, crack.
The lighter rang, but it could no longer be lit because of the rain.
His fingers began to tremble. He gripped the lighter tightly, but he did not say a word.
When the surrounding inspectors saw this scene, they only felt a slight astringent in their throats, and their hearts were filled with panic.
They seemed to be unable to help. They could only grit their teeth and continue to persevere.
If he gave up, there would be no chance to catch Su Chen.
At the same time.
Beijiang City's Punishment Division.
Jiang Ting also received Yan Zhen's call. She picked up almost immediately as soon as the phone rang.
"Hey, Captain Yan, how's the situation? Have you found any traces of Su Chen?”
Her voice was very anxious.
Every minute and every second was extremely precious.
If they had caught up to the bus earlier, none of this would have happened.
Three seconds later.
Yan Zhen's voice came from the other end of the phone. His tone was filled with unwillingness and a little hoarse.
"Su Chen's whereabouts have disappeared."
His words were like a bomb exploding in his ears.
Jiang Ting and the rest of the inspectors in the command room felt their heads buzz as if they couldn't hear anything.
Su Chen ran away?
Was he dreaming?
How was that possible? Even if he had gotten off the car earlier, where could he have escaped to?!
Just as everyone was about to suffocate.
"According to the current situation, he should still be within our encirclement."”
"However, the area of the forest nearby is extremely vast, and it is very difficult to search. I hope to provide a large number of police support.”
Hearing this, Jiang Ting and the surrounding inspectors heaved a sigh of relief.
It turned out that Su Chen had only escaped into the forest. If that was the case, there was still a chance.
However, according to the map, the area of the forest was indeed not small. It was indeed very difficult to conduct a comprehensive search.
Jiang Ting did not hesitate and immediately replied,"Captain Yan, don't worry. This time, Beijiang City's headquarters has joined forces with all the branches.”
"I'll immediately inform the headquarters to seal off the entire forest.”
After saying that, Yan Zhen replied on the other end of the phone and hung up.
Du du du…
The busy tone of the phone rang clearly in everyone's ears.
None of them had expected that Yan Zhen would not be able to find any traces of Su Chen in the forest.
It could be said that the only way to find Su Chen was to search the forest with all of them.
At this moment.
All the inspectors present had a heavy expression on their faces. Many of them walked around uneasily, not knowing what to do.
He couldn't help but have the same feeling.
Su Chen seemed to be getting further and further away from them.
At this moment.
Beside him, some inspectors who knew Yan Zhen well also spoke.
"Sigh, Captain Yan is a new official. I didn't expect to be defeated in front of Su Chen on his first time. His tone doesn't sound right.”
"Yeah, I've never heard of Su Chen being so cunning when Yan Zhen couldn't find any trace of the fugitive.!”
"I guess Captain Yan was confused after being schemed against by Su Chen in the car."
"That's right. Logically speaking, even if Su Chen hid in the forest, he wouldn't be able to escape Captain Yan's tracking.”
"Su Chen seems to be unexpected every time. I can't figure out what he's doing at all. Sigh, why would such a person become a fugitive!”
……
Many of them beat their chests and stomped their feet, wishing they could arrest Su Chen immediately.
However, they seemed to be constantly approaching Su Chen, but they could not even touch the corner of his clothes.
This could be said to be a form of despair.
On the other side,
Within the Beijiang City Criminal Investigation Bureau
In the Director General's office.
Secretary Zhou Wenpu and Li Likai waited quietly.
In addition, there were also some criminal investigation inspectors from the headquarters and the branch secretaries from the various branches.
This time, apart from the headquarters, even the other large and small branches had mobilized a lot of police forces.
It could be said that he was going all out and holding his breath to completely arrest Su Chen.
However, until now, there was still no news from the front line.
The passing of time made everyone in the office very uneasy.
Zhou Wenpu picked up a cup of tea on the table and was about to drink it when his mouth turned sour.
"Old Zhou, stop drinking. This is already the fifth cup.”
Li Likai, who was sitting opposite him, couldn't help but say.
He knew that his old colleague, Zhou Wenpu, would drink water non-stop whenever he was nervous.
That was why when they worked together, everyone called him Water Buffalo.
Hearing this, Zhou Wenpu finally put down his teacup and said in a serious tone,""This time, with such a big commotion, if we don't catch Su Chen, not to mention me, even you guys, who can keep their face?”
After he finished speaking, he seemed to be unable to hold it in any longer. He reached out and picked up the tea on the table again. After drinking it in one gulp, his body relaxed a lot.
The people around, including Li Likai, also looked solemn.
After all, this concerned the honor and dignity of Beijiang City's Punishment Division. This was enough to show the importance of capturing Su Chen.
Just as everyone was silent.
The phone rang, and the inspector in charge of answering the call quickly picked up the receiver.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the inspector, but they saw that the inspector's face had become nervous.
Ten seconds later, he looked at Zhou Wenpu with trembling eyes and said.
"Director General, Yan Zhen is requesting backup. Su Chen is hiding in the deep mountains and forests by the roadside.”
One sentence.
With a swoosh.
Zhou Wenpu immediately stood up." What?!”
His heart beat violently a few times because this was also the first time Yan Zhen had asked him for help.
Su Chen had actually forced Yan Zhen to this point!
He immediately understood the seriousness of the matter.
Even if the forest was surrounded by the Punishment Division, Su Chen was not a fool. Once he found any loopholes in the blockade, he could escape.
Therefore, everyone had to be on high alert.
It seemed that the decision to send reinforcements was indeed correct. Su Chen was worth such a hunting lineup.
Thinking of this…
He immediately said to everyone in the office,"This is the most critical moment. Immediately arrange for an absolute lockdown to seal off that forest!”
"Remember, it's sealed. There must be no loopholes.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
"Yes, sir!"
The inspectors, including some of the branch secretaries, stood up and saluted at the same time.
Immediately after, the office door was opened and hurried footsteps could be heard.
No one dared to delay for even a second. Their eyes were incomparably nervous.
After all, Su Chen was the strongest person among them to hunt down and investigate. Even Yan Zhen was fooled by him.
This pursuit was unprecedentedly tense.
At the same time.
Many of the inspection vehicles that were heading toward Su Chen's alighting point turned around and began to follow the latest instructions to surround all the exits of the forest.
Many of the inspectors who were already in place had already begun to enter the forest to search while ensuring that the outer perimeter was sealed.
Amongst them.
He Fengnian, who was known as the Divine Detective Inspector, also received the latest news from Zhou Wenpu.
"You still lost him?"
He Fengnian narrowed his eyes. He knew that once Su Chen analyzed Yan Zhen's personality, he would definitely be able to find a loophole in his thinking.
Then, he only needed to use these loopholes to easily get rid of Yan Zhen.
This was the scariest part about Su Chen.
He Fengnian could see this in Su Chen's book. All the characters were described according to the characters in reality.
A person's personality, psychology, and the reasons for his actions could all be described perfectly.
Take Jiang Ting for example. If she had read the book's description of herself, she probably wouldn't have realized it.
Su Chen knew her better than she did, just like how most people could not objectively say what kind of person they were.
This was the reason why Jiang Ting could not catch Su Chen.
Thinking of this, He Fengnian took out a piece of chewing gum and threw it into his mouth to chew.
According to the information provided by Yan Zhen.
Su Chen was definitely with the robbers and was taking advantage of their grasp of the surrounding situation.
Moreover, it was very likely that he was no longer in that forest!
That was because the robbers were obviously a group of habitual criminals. How could they not leave a way out for themselves?
So...
There must be a hidden path that could lead them out of the forest.
Moreover, this group of robbers did not appear out of thin air. Their stronghold was definitely nearby.
"Are there any villages near the forest, or places where people can live?”
He Fengnian asked the inspector in the driver's seat beside him.
He had never been to Beijiang before, so he didn't know much about this place.
Hearing this, the inspector frowned and thought for a moment before saying,"That area is too remote. No one lives there.”
"However, in recent years, someone has been opening a mine there, near that forest.”
When He Fengnian heard that there was a mine, his eyes lit up and he immediately said,"To the mine."
"Su Chen and the robbers are probably there.”
If they rushed over now, it might even be too late. They had to hurry.
Everyone in the carriage hesitated.
However, he still followed his instructions and adjusted his direction, speeding towards the mine.
Then, He Fengnian immediately sent out his speculation.
For a moment.
Whether it was the Director General, Jiang Ting, or Yan Zhen and Song Chengyi who were still searching in the forest, their eyes moved.
They also understood.
If they found the robbers, they would find Su Chen.
Therefore, they all rushed to the nearest mine in a frenzy.
At this moment.
On the dirt road about 500 meters away from the mine.
The five robbers in raincoats walked leisurely while chatting.
"I really didn't expect that guy to not lie to us. The Punishment Division really did make a big move.”
The burly man couldn't help but say.
Hearing this, the others nodded. The square-faced robber narrowed his slender eyes and said,"Ignore him. This place is probably not safe. We'll leave immediately after we come back to get our things.”
After saying that, he couldn't help but quicken his pace.
At this moment, someone pointed at one of the robbers wearing gold-rimmed glasses and said,"Aiya, Little Six, why are you still wearing these broken glasses? I'm so uncomfortable looking at you.”
"That's right, throw it away quickly. We're robbers, so stop pretending to be cultured.”
"What do you know? Although I am a robber, I am also a cultured robber.”
Just as the few of them were in a mess.
The sound of a speeding car suddenly came from behind.
When they turned around, their expressions changed drastically and they ran away.
Police cars!
However, the police car was obviously faster and rushed over.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The car door opened, and a group of inspectors roared.
"Don't move!"
"Who dares to run again!"
Two warning gunshots rang out.
In an instant.
The surroundings were deathly silent.
All the robbers trembled violently, as if they were frozen in place and did not dare to move.
He Fengnian had rushed over to check on them.
He held the gun in his hand and swept his gaze over. His gaze immediately fell on the robber wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
Seeing this scene.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
According to the information provided by Yan Zhen, Su Chen was wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a black windbreaker.
This time, he finally caught Su Chen.
However, looking at the robber's trembling legs in fear, he was in an extremely sorry state.
He Fengnian raised his eyebrows and felt that something was wrong.
However, when he heard that Su Chen had an almost perfect acting ability, he relaxed a little.
This guy's acting skills were not bad. He could still act so well at this time.
