Chapter 239 – Transfer

After a long time, or maybe too many people came in the following days."

Li Li took Strong and circled around for a long time, but still couldn't get Strong to break through.

The twenty or so criminal police officers from the Second Squadron also found nothing special.

At this point, it's meaningless to force it.

Huang Qiangming looked at Jiang Yuan and asked, "How about it, any ideas?"

Jiang Yuan shook his head, "No clues."

"Well, let's go down the mountain first."

Huang Qiangming's emotions stabilized.

This search was definitely a big scene. If you count the number of people, tens of thousands of people would be involved over the course of two or three days.

Even if you calculate based on the number of people, the investment in the first few days can be described as involving thousands of people.

This kind of widespread search is the same all over the world. Even in the United States, when a large-scale search is needed, it still requires manpower.

For some well-known cases, there are often records of using several thousand or even tens of thousands of people. Some are police, some are government workers, and more are organized civilians.

In fact, it's very similar to the routine in China.

With such a large area and number of people involved in the search, it's unrealistic to expect to find anything.

Huang Qiangming also had no intention of receiving awards or recognition. He really just came out to help this time.

The thoughts of most of the police officers were similar.

Everyone earnestly completed the assigned areas and then returned to rest and recuperate in Zifeng Town.

This is not the time to stay up late and work hard. It's more beneficial to the case to follow the overall situation.

The temple on the mountaintop can accommodate people, but a group of people can only drive up the mountain at night.

It's even easier to return on the way back.

There are fewer reflective signs on the side of the road, and there are fewer reminders of safe locations, and there are fewer places with lights.

In terms of road safety investment in Zifeng Town, it has been vague and unclear for more than ten years without a comprehensive rectification like Xu Taining's.

Hong Sheng shook the poor Strong outside the car and then saw the lights shining at the corner ahead, saying, "Just put a light on the side of the road, it's very difficult to get lost."

"If it's lost, it's lost. Just consider it a one-time expense."

Long Limin said calmly, "With so few people searching the mountain, it's familiar to them. Reducing the risk is the right thing to do."

Hong Sheng rubbed the dog's head and said, "Xu is as stingy as you."

"What are you? Xu is the one who can ask for funds."

Hong Sheng drove the car cautiously, not daring to speed up.

As they drove, the flow of traffic was intermittent, and the officers who had stopped and started the search task were returning.

"Do you know if anyone else found any clues?"

Huang Qiang asked again.

"Any news?"

Hong Sheng looked at the rearview mirror and asked, "How's Strong?"

"Just rest for a while. It's mainly getting used to going out."

As Huang Qiang spoke, he comforted Strong, "Don't worry, he's very obedient."

Strong whimpered and lay on Huang Qiang's lap, looking a little sickly.

Long Limin sighed, "Let it rest for a day. Take care of the police dog outside the guesthouse. Jiang Yuan County's Bai Zi hasn't arrived on the mountain yet. Tomorrow morning, we'll take Jiang Yuan County's police dog on duty..."

"Woof!"

When Strong heard Bai Zi's name, he stood up straight, raised his head to the roof of the car, and barked softly.

Hong Sheng quickly grabbed his neck and ordered, "Strong, sit!"

"Woof!"

"Sit! Strong."

Huang Qiang gave the command seven times before finally getting Strong to sit back down.

At that time, Strong's eyes were bright and alert, and he no longer looked as sickly as before.

"That guy has an immediate reaction to the name you just mentioned."

Huang Qiang said helplessly, "He looks fine. You guys should be on duty tomorrow."

"Then we'll take both dogs."

Long Limin was more concerned about the dogs. When it comes to solving the case, the criminal police officers are concerned, but I am in charge, and solving the case is the top priority.

Hong Sheng was even more unfamiliar with Long Limin's tough style, only thinking about how to comfort Strong.

At that time, Wang Zhong spoke up, "When we return to the guesthouse now, will we receive a new task when we set off tomorrow?"

"Very likely, the search and investigation at Baqing Temple hasn't been completed yet, even though nothing has been found."

Long Limin heard that Wang Zhong had no ideas and said directly, "What does he want to do?"

"He wants to investigate the place where he was injured last time."

"The tire was punctured this time?"

"Yes, the criminal also took a risk. It's possible that my car was punctured for no reason. You think Stilwell should have made the other party feel threatened at the time. I came here to organize the team to go down the mountain, probably for this reason."Huang Shengmin nodded and said, "I brought several dogs with me at the time, including our Xiao Zhuang and Jiang Yuan County's Bai Zi..."

"Woof woof!"

Xiao Zhuang barked wildly again.

Huang Qiang quickly calmed him down and explained, "Xiao Zhuang is in good health today, and his emotions are stable. Let's use CK instead of the police dog from Jiang Yuan County."

"Alright."

Long Limin also had a real struggle with the dog, snorted, and glanced at Huang Sheng, saying, "He has to think about it. If he really wants to choose a place by himself, we will go to the guesthouse tonight and stay up all night inside. We'll see the situation tomorrow and report back."

"You understand, you want to take a look."

Wang Zhong said.

Huang Shengmin responded with an "En" and opened the walkie-talkie to give orders to the people in front.

For such a private action, there still needs to be some reason. Moreover, with such an operation, the manpower is too scarce. It's best to send Liu Wenkai's team back and continue the mission tomorrow morning, obeying the overall situation and conducting a comprehensive search.

As for Wang Zhong's idea, if Long Limin is willing to consider it, then it's possible.

At the fork in the road on the mountain, the heavy artillery turned sharply and headed towards the main peak.

Huang Shengmin said as he drove, "We are now considered to have left our search area. When we turn back and ask Xu, we need to find a suitable reason."

"Just say that you suddenly lost interest in the investigation. Can you do that?"

"It's better to really have no thoughts when asking Xu."

We are "pawread.com", find us on google.

Long Limin replied with a smile, and after a few turns, they drove for another ten minutes to the location where Huang Qiangming had the accident that day.

Li Li and several other detectives followed in an Iveco.

There were fewer devices and investigation equipment outside the car, and they were quickly unloaded, including batteries, lights, and other items, and they were shining all over the place.

Li Li said as she worked, "The location of the tire puncture should be in the parking lot at the foot of the mountain. It was a random occurrence due to a traffic accident..."

"Let's search first."

Wang Zhong didn't say anything, turned on the investigation light, and started searching quietly.

The area hadn't been searched during the day, so it could be said to be clean, but it was also a mess.

Li Li looked around and asked, "The starting point of Liusu's seven descents should also be here. But the distance is too far now. Even if we find traces of Liusu, where can we go now?"

"If you've looked for traces of Liusu before, then that footprint might not be Liusu's."

Wang Zhong strolled around the area where the accident occurred that day and saw only the traces of their own personnel.

In theory, the suspect must also appear there.

Of course, if they did appear, their traces could be distinguished.

Li Li had never seen Wang Zhong speak so cautiously before, so she kept quiet and obediently held the investigation light, accompanying Wang Zhong to the scene.

Wang Zhong took photos and collected some physical evidence, but the process was very long and tedious.

After finishing there, they returned to the parking lot.

The parking lot at the foot of the mountain was very narrow and had been used to park small cars and coal trucks. It had been empty for more than ten years, and not to mention the overgrown grass, trees had also grown.

On one side of the mountain road, there was no open space that had been cultivated by humans. It was often used by people to ride motorcycles down, or to let cattle and sheep come down and move around in that area.

Because there was no one to manage it, the tire tracks and the traces of the cattle and sheep grazing were all left behind.

Wang Zhong continued to investigate with his head down, still explaining and talking.

Long Limin soon gave up on the idea of communicating. In my opinion, Wang Zhong's proposal to come here to search was a very risky move.At the scene, finding evidence or clues is actually quite common.

Wang Zhong is now looking for clues. With more or less, it may not be very dignified, but I want to talk, and Hong Shengmin will naturally chase after to ask.

A group of people and a dog, shivering and searching in the cold wind between the mountains.

In the middle of the night, someone brought a tent and other things. Long Limin hurriedly set it up and went inside with the dog.

Wang Zhong conducted a few more investigations, and it was not until the weather became really hot that he went outside the tent.

At this point, I had over a hundred mosquito bites all over my body.

"The mosquitoes outside the mountains are really poisonous."

Hong Sheng scratched his arms and legs slowly.

Only then did Long Limin ask, "Any findings?"

"I still think there is, but based on your suggestion, that area should still be the focus of the search," Wang Zhong said.

"It's useful for you to give suggestions now. He needs to talk to Xu," Long Limin said.

Wang Zhong responded with an "Hmm" and said, "Let's take a nap and go find Xu early in the morning."

Long Limin was stunned, "Has he not found it yet, or what's going on? He wants me to search more intensively, but we've been over there several times, and it's hard to miss any blind spots."

Wang Zhong moved his lips and said, "That area is still the least suspicious. Searching there less often has its drawbacks."

"He thinks that Liu is... buried outside?" Long Limin's voice rose as much as possible.

Although there were only two people outside the tent, who knew if there would be a dog passing by to urinate inside the tent.

Wang Zhong was startled by Long Limin's words and quickly said, "It's not to that extent."

"Why is he searching outside? Huang Qiangming will always linger in that area when working on a case," Long Limin paused and continued, "If I think there's no problem over there, and if more manpower is needed, I will let the members of the special task force come over."

Long Limin's reasoning was still very powerful, and it was a political-style reasoning that could only be made based on an understanding of the internal situation of the police station.

Speaking of the outside, Wang Zhong reaffirmed, "Do you think it's better to go directly to Liu, and finding people is also your specialty."

Half of the equipment in my arsenal is not prepared for the dead, and the other half relies on the city and modern technology.

In the wilderness, my role is naturally enhanced.

Long Limin frowned, feeling a bad premonition, and asked, "What does he want to do by going directly to Huang Qiangming now?"

"Do you want to solve that case directly," Wang Zhong said astonishingly.

Even though Long Limin was unfamiliar with Wang Zhong's style of doing things, he was not shocked this time. After a moment of daze, he shouted, "Is he crazy? Solve which case?"

"The case of the tire puncture. But the main thing is the previous murder case," Hong Sheng said, "You all know that Liu followed the line of the reservoir body-hiding case to that place. The car accident with the tire puncture, 14 out of 10, is also a derivative of that case."

"But... there is no evidence," Hong Shengmin said.

"We are still in the investigation stage, and it is not necessary to prove that at this point," Wang Zhong said calmly, "But in such a small area, where people come and go daily, and it's a murder case, and a police car accident, do you think there might be a connection?"

Long Limin remained silent.

Wang Zhong continued, "Liu's disappearance, if it's also related to that murder case, there's a small possibility, and I'm not ruling out the possibility of the murderer being outside. As long as we solve that murder case, Liu's situation will also be clarified."

"You're making it sound intense. First, you said there's a murder case without a body, which is likely to be a hoax. Even if there is such a murder case, it's a 10-year-old unsolved case. It's not that easy to solve," Hong Sheng said.

"Do you agree with what you just said?" Wang Zhong followed Long Limin's words and said, "If we want to solve the case, anyone can say with 100% certainty that they can solve it. Let's take it step by step, as you said, let's start by finding the body."

"What you said..." Hong Shengmin felt that Wang Zhong was just trying to fool people, but his smile did appear, reaching about 55.5 degrees. At this point, Long Limin said, "So, he came here today not to find the body?"

"He was sure when he first came, but now, are you sure that finding the body is more complicated than finding Liu?""Homicide cold cases aren't so easily cracked."

Long Limin muttered to himself again, noticing that Wang Zhong seemed to be moved by his words, and couldn't help but boast about his own assertiveness.

After all, the man had indeed solved quite a number of homicide cold cases.

Counting those cracked by fingerprint detection, the number of cases Wang Zhong had solved might even be fewer than those Long Limin had cracked in his lifetime.

Thinking this way, Long Limin felt a bit sad, but he was an experienced old hand who knew his own level and the capabilities of the county criminal police team. He had also seen these impressive figures solve cases.

Even the legendary "Four Tigers," Long Limin had met them and witnessed their elegance in solving minor cases with ease.

Turning his head to look at Wang Zhong, Long Limin changed his posture and said, "Since Officer Liu came down from the mountain, after such a long time, he might have solved some cases. The clues he found are probably solid, which is why he has delayed until now. He wants to start with the homicide, and there might not even be a body..."

"It's better to have no leads at all than to grasp at straws."

Wang Zhong's explanation was feeble. In reality, he had no judgment yet regarding the possible location of the body.

However, considering that Huang Qiangming's incident did not occur at the foot of that mountain, and the way the car accident happened, plus some details observed today, Wang Zhong had even less reason to remain silent.

First, get the work done; speaking is not always necessary.
