“Got it!” Bai Muchuan took a deep breath and commanded Quan Shaoteng. “Take your men to continue to search. Send another team of people to chase after the direction of where the car tracks lead to. Do report if there’s anything!”
Quan Shaoteng could not feel his emotion and was slightly worried. “Roger…” After a pause, he added, “Little Bai, we need not lose heart. We’re hot on that fellow’s heels, that’s also a victory, right?”
Bai Muchuan said, “Who told you that I’ve lost heart?”
Quan Shaoteng replied, “… No one.”
Bai Muchuan said, “Then speed up!”
When Quan Shaoteng heard that his tone sounded relaxed, he made fun of him. “Aye, I’m already faster than you. Why are you chasing me? Don’t be unreasonable…”
Dduu… Dduu…
He hadn’t even replied and Bai Muchuan had already ended the call.
The mood was heavy. He was not trying to crack a joke at all.
There seemed to be a huge boulder pressing on him. As long as they weren’t found, he wouldn’t be able to relax.
It was no surprise that Ye Lun would play hide-and-seek with them. If a cunning hare had three caves, Ye Lun would be the crafty fox that had eight or ten caves…
For a long time, no one spoke inside the car. The atmosphere was dead silent.
A while later, Quan Shaoteng sent a set of coordinates and said that he had found the spot…
A pity though, there really was no one there.
When Bai Muchuan arrived at the location, he already saw Quan Shaoteng’s car which was parked outside.
Bai Muchuan got off the car and entered the place, gun in hand.
“Quan Laowu!”
A figure appeared from the shadows. “I’m here!”
Bai Muchuan took a look at him. “Go guard outside.”
Quan Shaoteng was puzzled. “Why?”
Bai Muchuan said, “I need to check out the scene and you’ll pay attention in case the enemy decides to counterattack!”
D*rn! He really treated him as the security guard?
Quan Shaoteng frowned at him and went out.
When he saw Lu Jianming, he turned for a glance at Bai Muchuan…
That was Ye Lun’s secret hideout. He had been hiding in a village on a mountain which was rather far away. With the city now covered with electronic surveillance cameras, remote mountain villages were the easiest places to hide. In places like this, the adults were mostly working in the cities, leaving only the elderly and children staying behind at the village. This was one of the most defenseless groups in the country. With poor traffic and poor supervision of government officials, it was fertile ground for criminals to hide.
There was hardly anyone living in that village. The houses could be separated by two or three miles. The land was deserted and the houses were vacant. One could rent them from the villagers with little money.
Ye Lun rented a two-storey house with five to six rooms. From outside, it was no different from the ordinary farmhouses.
Bai Muchuan wore his gloves and went upstairs. In no time, he saw the tiny dark room which was used to lock Xiang Wan up.
It was damp, dark and without a window. The condition was so bad, it could send chills to anyone who saw it…
He just stood there, took a deep breath, his head seemed to hurt and he felt that his heart had gone cold.
He didn’t dare to think how Xiang Wan had survived for the past few days.
He didn’t want to think about it.
Not at the tiny bit.
For if he did, he might collapse!
Bai Muchuan coughed and gritted his teeth. “Ding Yifan!”
Ding Yifan quickly came in. “Captain Bai, I’m here.”
“Ask them to search carefully!” Bai Muchuan said, “I don’t believe that he didn’t leave anything behind…”
They had been staying there for days. It was impossible for them to not leave behind any trace.
Moreover, Ye Lun had brought Xiang Wan and Cheng Zheng along when he left in a hurry!
After a careful search, besides finding the traces that Xiang Wan and Cheng Zheng had been there, they also found the traces of Ye Lun and his men. They found the surveillance equipment that Ye Lun used to monitor Xiang Wan. There were some leftover images. They did not know if it was because they had no time to destroy that or had intentionally left them for Bai Muchuan. The leftover footage consisted of some intermittent scenes without beginning or end. There was no sound and showed several scenes of Ye Lun and Xiang Wan together which they didn’t know how that might have ended…
Also, there were some scenes that showed Xiang Wan and Cheng Zheng talking in the tiny dark room.
“Captain Bai…”
Salimu was shocked and worried so he quickly stopped the device.
“Let’s not look at them anymore.”
“Just continue!” Bai Muchuan grunted. “He left it here deliberately for me. Why shouldn’t I watch it?”
Salimu turned for a glance to check if there was any outsider before heaving in relief as there was no one else there.
“Don’t take it to heart. That b*stard left all these behind to anger you… He’s up to no good.”
Bai Muchuan was expressionless.
No matter what, at the very least, he saw Xiang Wan and Cheng Zheng.
They were alive.
“Captain Bai!” Ding Yifan walked into the room. “Director Lu is here.”
When Bai Muchuan heard that, he stopped the device and turned around. “Director Lu.”
Lu Jianming was an alert man. He had seen the device in one look. “Any findings?”
Bai Muchuan coughed gently and shook his head. “Nope.”
Lu Jianming pointed at the device. “There’s nothing inside?”
Bai Muchuan shook his head. “It’s of no use. When he left, he must have meddled with it.”
After that, he instructed Salimu, “Take it back as evidence!”
“Yes, sir!” Salimu quickly packed it away in an evidence bag.
Lu Jianming’s eyes shifted slightly, but he didn’t continue asking. Instead, he walked around the room where they assumed that Ye Lun had been staying. “This fellow left so fast as if he knew we’re after him. It’s too strange…”
What did he mean?
Bai Muchuan seemed grim. “Be rest assured Director Lu, no matter where he goes, I’ll get him!”
Lu Jianming nodded his head as he looked at him with a smile and nodded again.
His behavior…
Salimu wasn’t able to understand that. “Boss, I’ll go back with this to see if I can recover it…”
“Mm!” Bai Muchuan waved his hand.
At this time, Quan Shaoteng came in and took a glance at Lu Jianming. “There’s news from our men,” he said in a low tone.
Bai Muchuan looked up. “What did they say?”
“They followed the tire tracks and found that there is only one way out of the mountain, which is the Shile Expressway. The Intelligence team got in touch with the Traffic department and found two suspicious cars that got off the highway at the first exit of Shile Expressway. They continued driving on the road. At the moment, the Intelligence Team is still searching for them and has asked for assistance from any police officers who might be along the way…”
“Alright!”
Bai Muchuan pointed at the entrance.
“Gather everyone and chase after them!”
“Roger!”
