The investigator said: "It has been more than four hours since we entered the house. The other handlers had already eaten together and left the house. They were preparing for the return trip at the horse bolting place, but this person has not shown up yet. He may have come out from the other two doors.
, but no report has been received yet.”
Yang Cao said: "Send the message again and ask Huanhu to check this person. It may be a useful clue. In the future, don't let Huanhu do the investigation during daily visits. Try to use peripheral personnel to reduce the number of corals' actions and avoid exposure."
The investigator said: "Yes."
Yang Cao said: "Is it marked on the map?"
The investigator said: "It's marked, let's walk through it ourselves." He handed over a regional map with all the lanes, entrances, exits and paths within the surveillance range marked.
Yang Cao nodded with satisfaction and said, "Not bad. Have you made the character characteristic card?"
The investigator said: "I've been doing the screening since I got back. I just finished it and haven't had time to issue it yet." After saying that, he handed over a handful of small pieces of paper. The small piece of paper was copied on three copies of carbon paper. Yang Cao looked at it quickly.
, it reads: He is eight feet tall, has a short beard, wears an octagonal pointed bamboo hat, has black hair, has a gray burlap jacket on his upper body, and gray burlap trousers on his lower body, has broad shoulders, a thick neck, and a thin waist, and wears hemp shoes on his back.
Wearing a native white cloth baggage.
Yang Cao said: "Very good, send it to all members of the surveillance team immediately to facilitate tracking and identification..."
She was very fond of this scout. There were not many people who could do this boring job so neatly. She asked casually: "What's your name?"
"Report! Trainee commander Zhang Jiabin!"
"Oh, that's a good name. He's not a refugee, right?"
"No," the scout was a little nervous, "I am an immigrant. My hometown is indeed from Guangdong, in Shaoguan."
The two were talking when the observer suddenly said: "Come out."
After Yang Cao heard this, he immediately walked up to the observation platform and moved his eyes to the telescope. In the camera, a strong man stood in front of the small door next to the main entrance. He bowed to the servant who sent him out and said a few words.
talk.
At this time, a police patrol officer carrying a baton passed by on patrol. He passed by the man slowly and looked at the man up and down casually. The man immediately stood aside carefully and respectfully, bowed and lowered his hands and stood by the roadside, watching.
The patrolman slowly left.
Yang Cao observed quietly. The man moved his upper body slightly back when the patrolman appeared, which meant that he unconsciously wanted to stay away from the policeman. Then he turned his chest to face the patrolman. It was the instinct of animals to hide his soft body.
flank, facing the enemy head-on. His legs are slightly spread apart, which is a sign of hostility. A shrew who curses will also cross her waist and spread her legs to show her fierceness. His right heel is slightly raised, and he
While stabilizing one's own balance, the soles of the feet are always ready to use force to escape or attack. This is not a posture of awe and respect, but a posture of vigilance and hostility. A person can control his expression and tone, but it is difficult to restrain his subconscious physiological reactions.
.
Yang Cao took a long breath of relief and said, "This man has a problem, keep an eye on him."
Zhang Jiabin asked: "Shall we let the other two doors support us?"
Yang Cao said: "It's too late. You are on duty here, and at the same time try to call for support immediately. The other two will follow. You will be the main shooter, and he will be the deputy." He pointed to the two investigators standing next to him, and then
He said: "I will provide backup support, and the carriage will follow up when necessary. Let's get started." The constraints of communication capabilities made it difficult for them to fully mobilize manpower to make complete deployment and response to emergencies.
The two scouts nodded and stopped talking, quickly making preparations.
Yang Cao silently raised his head and looked out the window. Too many material, financial and human resources of the Political Security Bureau were involved here. This made Director Zhao feel even more pressure in Lingao. Someone sarcastically said: Is the Political Security Bureau overfunded or will it be overfunded?
They have all invested in the entertainment business of Ziminglou, and even the local tyrants and evil gentry cannot take over. Some people are clamoring to audit the capital flow of the Political Security Bureau. All the noise has been pushed back by Director Zhao. They must stabilize their minds and block out the outside world.
All the storms are coming to a standstill, and anxiety will be the beginning of doom.
On the windowsill, a mantis held a locust between its sickle-shaped tibia and chewed it slowly. The locust struggled in vain until it was completely swallowed. The mantis waved its forelimbs happily. Today is a good day for it.
.
Yang Cao was a little nervous. Tracking tasks often require sufficient preparation in advance. The more information you have, the higher the probability of success. Only by fully understanding the target's appearance, area of activity, work scope, living habits, etc. can you plan the route in advance.
The plan is to quickly recover the cannon when it is lost, and the temporary tracking with few personnel and no support will be difficult to succeed once counter-tracking is encountered, but at this moment, Yangcao has no choice.
Scout No. 1 quietly followed Qiao Yan six or seven meters behind, leaning on the right side of the street and followed slowly. Scout No. 2 followed Scout No. 1 five meters behind. The three of them formed a column, following the flow of people.
Move slowly.
Yang Cao walked on the opposite side of the street, walking in the same direction as Qiao Yan on the left side, forming a triangle with investigators No. 1 and No. 2. Her position was slightly behind Qiao Yan, and she could see Qiao Yan's back.
, and allowed Scout No. 1 to see him sideways with his peripheral vision. Yang Cao gently raised his right hand, curled up his temples, and held up his hairpin, signaling Scout No. 1 to observe the target's appearance in advance. Scout No. 1 immediately
Quickly striding past Qiao Yan, Scout No. 2 followed a few steps to take over the lead position of Scout No. 1.
Investigator No. 1 stopped in front of a fruit stall. When the fruit vendor saw the customer, he immediately smiled and said: "Does this official want pears? I have the best pears in the whole street. They are sweet and juicy.
How much does an official cost?"
Investigator No. 1 plucked at the fruit frame twice and said, "Your pears are not good. They are infested with worms, so they can only be sold at a low price."
The fruit seller immediately became anxious and said: "Officials, please don't talk nonsense. I picked these out one by one. There are worms somewhere."
Investigator No. 1 raised a pear and looked at each other. While they were arguing, Qiao Yan happened to be approaching. Investigator No. 1's hand holding the pear quickly turned to him, pointed at the pear and said: "Look, look.
, there are insects here." At the same time, his eyes swept across Qiao Yan's face along with the pear in his hand. After Qiao Yan and Detective No. 2 passed by one after another, he threw the pear back into the frame and followed Detective No. 2.
The officer turned into a deputy, leaving only the fruit seller behind him complaining dissatisfiedly.
Yang Cao walked a few steps behind and approached Scout No. 1, questioning him with his eyes. Scout No. 1 touched his scarf lightly and shook his head slightly, indicating that he could not see the target's face because of the bamboo hat.
Qiao Yan walked slowly on the street, looking left and right from time to time, and kept looking around. After walking for another moment, Qiao Yan suddenly walked into a car dealership called Yuesheng. Upon seeing this, Yang Cao and the other three people immediately dispersed outside the car dealership.
They each looked around the street corner, hiding their figures behind the facade, keeping their eyes fixed on the front cabinet and the exit of the car dealership, waiting quietly.
This Yuesheng Car Company has recently opened its doors and is engaged in the "Australian car" business. It has learned the Qiwei model. In addition to renting rickshaws, and the driver pays a daily share, it also provides long-distance horse-drawn carriage services, which can go outside the city.
On the dry road from the suburbs to neighboring counties, the fare is calculated based on the trip. Although it is not as comfortable as taking a boat, the speed is much faster than the boat. People with urgent matters often choose horse-drawn carriages.
The rule of this car dealership is to place an order at the front counter and have the car delivered in the backyard. Qiao Yan chatted with the car dispatch manager at the front counter for a while, and then received a duplicate car dispatch order from the front counter. Not long after, a passenger car arrived.
After coming out of the backyard and parking by the door, Qiao Yan boarded the cart, lowered the curtains and curtains, gave a few instructions to the handlebars, flicked the handlebar whip, and the cart slowly pulled away and rolled away.
As soon as Qiao Yan left, Yang Cao quickly walked out of the corner of the street, went directly to the front counter of the carriage shop, and said to the shopkeeper who dispatched the order at the front counter: "This gentleman has invited you, have you seen my husband-in-law coming to hire a car?"
?He is eight feet tall, wearing a bamboo hat, coarse clothes, and has a tall build."
The shopkeeper was stunned and said: "Oh, you are in front and back, you just missed it."
Yang Cao said bitterly: "He has such a stubborn temper. When he came to the city to hand over an errand, I went back to the city with him and my son to stay at my parents' house for a while. During lunch, my father thought that his rough clothes and hats were embarrassing, so he
After saying a few words, he lost his temper and couldn't wait for a moment. He immediately wanted to hire a car to go home. How can anyone in the world have such a donkey temper and leave his wife and children? What will my mother and son do?" After saying this,
He covered his face with a handkerchief and sobbed softly, and then said: "I also hired a car to chase him, but I am a woman who doesn't know the market, but I don't know how much money?"
The shopkeeper said: "Madam, please don't cry. I don't know where you are going. A long-distance car is not cheap! If you just want to catch up with the car, I will send a car now. How much is the fare? I will pay the driver when I catch up. But here first
You need to pay a deposit of twenty cents in advance - I'll make an order with you, and you can just come to me with the order to return it when it's convenient. I won't be short of it."
When Yang Cao heard this, he was surprised and said: "How can you be so expensive? You are bullying me and saying that you don't know the world? I'll take a look." After saying that, he came to grab the registration book. The shopkeeper couldn't do it. After pulling it a few times, he had to point it out to her.
, said: "Don't rob, don't rob, don't tear up the account book, I jumped into the car and horse business, and I am a good old man. If you don't believe me, madam, please see, your husband also rented a car at this price."
Yang Cao glanced at the registration book and immediately felt a little unsure. He said helplessly: "I, I don't have enough money on me. Please wait a moment, sir. I'll get the money and then hire a car."
The shopkeeper said: "Ma'am, please help yourself." He cursed in his heart where did this crazy woman come from, no wonder the man ran away!
Yang Cao walked out of the carriage house, and at this time the carriage from the Political Security Bureau had followed. The No. 2 investigator in front of the door made a signal, and the carriage stopped steadily at the corner in front. Yang Cao ran over quickly, seeing no trace of the carriage.
He stepped onto the cart with a quick step, raised the front curtain and said to the driver: "To Sanxiantai, take the north gate."
