Cicada Moving

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the city in the distance seems to be swallowed up, leaving only a few outlines looming in the wind and rain.

The speeding car stopped suddenly downstairs of Renxin Hospital. Song Minghao, who was soaked all over, jumped out of the car and ran into the building. After a while, he appeared in front of Zuo Zhong.

Holding the umbrella brought by the little agent above his head, Song Minghao made a report in a hurry, the content of which was related to the murderer's whereabouts after leaving the scene.

“Deputy Officer, within thirty minutes of the incident, witnesses within a two-kilometer radius of the safe house discovered a total of 17 strangers, including 1 Category A contact, 4 Category B contacts, and 12 Category C contacts.

Through our tracing and investigation, there is no problem with the Category A contact target. Two Category B contacts have been found, and the background is very clean. The remaining two people can also be identified today.

 The focus is on type C contact. Based on the testimony of witnesses, we have ruled out most people as suspects, but the movement trajectories of five people have obvious anti-stalking characteristics.

With the scene as the center of the circle, within 1.5 kilometers, the walking speed of these people is much higher than that of normal people, and then the speed suddenly decreases, and they appear many times at the same point.

 In previous cases, our blockade range was exactly 1.5 kilometers. The other party obviously did this to get out of the blockade as quickly as possible and then get rid of the pursuers behind them.

This incident proves that the enemy is very familiar with the military command. I suggest that the distance of the blockade be randomly determined in the future to prevent people who are interested in taking advantage of this to escape capture. This is the relevant file, please review it. "

Song Minghao finished speaking in one breath, wiped his wet right hand with a towel, and took out a few documents from his arms and presented them to Zuo Zhong.

The Category A contact, Category B contact and Category C contact he mentioned are a standard for classifying the degree of contact within the military.

Category A means that the witness has had close physical contact and verbal communication with the target.

Category B means that there is only verbal communication between the two, and the witness can identify the target's appearance.

 Category C: The witness has neither physical contact nor verbal communication with the target, and has only seen the general appearance of the target.

Although the progress of the investigation was limited, Zuo Zhong still nodded and expressed satisfaction. It was quite difficult for the second office to find so many clues in such a short period of time.

 Because their opponents this time are not ordinary people. They must have carefully planned in advance and are not easy to track.

From this we can also see that once the state machine gets serious, no matter how you hide it, even if you are a professional agent, you will still be invisible to countless pairs of eyes.

 Zuo Zhong thought as he took the file in Song Minghao's hand and flipped through it. Above were the investigation records related to the five suspects.

For example, where a person passed by at a certain time, the clothes he wore at that time, the way he walked, his movements, whether he had any abnormal behavior, etc., there are no other clues other than that.

These five suspects were very cunning and only walked in crowded places. The trackers traced them for a certain distance and then lost track of each other.

Moving his eyes away from the file, Zuo Zhong looked at Song Minghao: "Did the witness who was closest to the suspect smell anything?"

Back in Jinling, the Secret Service had solved a case with the help of scent. He wanted to give it a try, but he also knew that there was little hope.

As expected, Song Minghao shook his head and said no. Thinking about it, who would care about the smell of a passerby if there is no special reason.

 “How well the line to the truck burning scene was traced.”

Zuo Zhong handed the file to the little agent and asked casually.

 “Still investigating.”

Song Minghao bent down slightly and said: "According to the report from the Shancheng Police Station, it can be determined that the two Renault trucks were lost by a certain grain store six hours before the incident, that is, at noon yesterday.

I personally investigated this matter and found that the driver, team manager and even the 53 people in the grain store were not suspicious. I also saw the scene of the theft and found that the thief left no fingerprints, footprints or other traces.

People near the car burning site told us that after the truck caught fire, they saw many people running from the scene toward the city. These people should be the enemies who were evacuating from the safe house in the car.

Tracing their whereabouts showed that they were the same as the enemies who left the safe house on foot. They all quickly left the safe house and began to follow them after leaving the blockade. During this period, there were signs of changing clothes and transportation.

There is one difference. Not only did three people fail to take the time to escape, but they stayed in public for a short time, thus revealing their appearance. "

 Zuo Zhong listened in his ears and walked into Ling Sanping's office. Ling Sanping and Gu Qi were drinking tea. When they saw him and Song Minghao coming in, they quickly stood up and said hello.

 “Vice seat.”

“Well, sit down, we are all our own people, no need to be polite.”

Zuo Zhong greeted Song Minghao casually and motioned for Song Minghao to continue, while he tilted his head to introduce the situation to Gu Qi next to him.

Song Minghao took a sip of hot tea, and there was a trace of blood on his face that was blue from the cold. Although the temperature in the mountain city was not low in August, it still felt uncomfortable when the rain poured on his body and the wind blew. He took a breath and held it with both hands. Teacup said slowly.

"Based on the ignition time of the car burning scene and the speed of the enemy's escape, we locked in three guests who met the investigation conditions in a restaurant 2 kilometers away from the scene.     According to the description of the clerk, the three suspects were all male, aged He is about 25 years old, no more than 1.6 meters tall, with thick arms and strong muscles. He looks like a professional soldier, but his skin is very white.

 After entering the store, one of them ordered a few dishes using a wooden sign with the name of the dish on the wall. He did not order any wine. The three of them ate for half an hour and finally left separately without talking to each other.

When I came, the brothers were investigating them, but there were not many clues, only a few simulated portraits. I am going to report the results to you and the director after I find out. "

Zuo Zhong frowned. He was a professional soldier but his skin was very fair. Going to eat on the way to escape sounded a bit strange.

 The latter can be explained by the enemy observing the movements of the pursuers, but the former is very contradictory.

Soldiers are inevitably exposed to wind and sun, even civilian personnel such as staff officers are no exception. Therefore, the skin of people in the military is generally darker.

  In any case, he has never seen any professional soldier with a pretty face. Even if they are born like this, the probability of three of them appearing at once is not high.

Could it be that the other party had been hiding indoors or underground for a long time and could not get sunlight, so that was why his skin color was like this? Zuo Zhong quickly thought of several possibilities.

Also, why did the suspect run to the hotel so arrogantly? Observing the government’s response can be done in a safe place, and there is no need to reveal his appearance.

 Simulating portraits really depends on luck. Sometimes it works, and sometimes the target can't even recognize it when standing next to the portrait.

  But what if?

Aren’t the enemies afraid of being recognized?

All kinds of doubts and speculations kept popping up in his mind. Zuo Zhong realized how difficult the enemy was. Even if the opponent had a hammer in the east and a stick in the west, there seemed to be a lot of clues, but there were only a few that could be used, and they were full of interference factors. .

Ling Sanping listened for a long time to figure out what happened, and asked Gu Qi with some confusion why he didn't search the city with the simulated portrait.

Gu Qi smiled bitterly, shook his head and replied: "Dr. Ling, you don't know, the commission only gave three days. Once the three days are over, the blockade must be lifted, and now the first day is about to pass.

With such a tight time schedule, we cannot investigate the residents in the city one by one. We must first find the suspect's general activity area before we can trace him. "

I don’t know if he was pretending to be stupid or taking the opportunity to get information. After hearing this, Ling Sanping showed the same expression and stopped talking while holding the tea cup.

It was not an option to wait here. After discussing with Gu Qi and Song Minghao, Zuo Zhong decided to go find Wu Chunyang to see the progress there.

Paper and disguised identities are the two most valuable clues at present. No matter which one has a breakthrough, it means that they are one step closer to the enemy and the code book.

The three of them walked out of the hospital under the **** of a group of secret agents, got in a car and quickly headed to Wu Chunyang's temporary headquarters, a small blue brick building in the center of the city.

Working here, if the frontline investigators gain anything, the support staff will arrive as quickly as possible to avoid delaying the fighter plane.

As soon as the convoy arrived downstairs, Wu Chunyang stood at the door and welcomed the three people in after receiving the news. Without saying much, he started to report directly.

“The report shows that there are 852 shops selling various types of paper in the city. Excluding shops that specialize in selling straw paper, yellow paper, and oil paper that are inconvenient to write on, there are still 381 shops.

Since there were too many targets, I asked Lao Bai’s senior police officers and spies to secretly monitor these places and monitor all customers.

For individual guests who are more suspected, the secret agent will notify us and our people will follow them closely to maximize the efficiency of the investigation.

As for the paper sales in the store in the past three days, capable personnel from the first department are in charge, and no suspicious targets have been found so far.

 The buyers that have been identified so far are all students, clerks, teachers, and low-level officials, with clear backgrounds and clean past experiences. "

Zuo Zhong understood why Wu Chunyang allowed spies and police officers to participate in the investigation of the case. There are 381 stores. Even if one person is left in one store, it would take more than 300 people. There are definitely not enough people in one store.

And Bai Wenzhi's skills are not weak. He has been the director of the Shancheng Police Department for more than a year, and the skills of his police officers have improved a lot. Tracking and stalking may not be enough, but staying at the station is not a big problem.

After thinking about it, he asked about the investigation status of the disguised identity: "How is Wu Jingzhong's situation? There are so many young and middle-aged people, even if they disguise their identities or live in scattered places, it should not be difficult to investigate."

There is a reason Zuo Zhong said this. The population of the mountain city and the people who fled are large, but most of them exist in the form of families. Single men are very conspicuous, and there are only a few places to hide.

"Deputy Chairman, Lao Wu sent back the news before. He has checked all the factories, schools, military camps, and docks in the city, and found nothing yet."

Wu Chunyang looked helpless. The name Juntong was very useful. The military and many groups were very cooperative when they heard that Juntong came to investigate the case.

But Wu Jingzhong and the others didn't even find the enemy's shadow. Instead, they hunted rabbits and caught a large group of sneaky robbers and bandits, which added a lot of achievements to Bai Wenzhi.

Looking at Wu Chunyang's deflated look, Zuo Zhong chuckled twice, then raised his head and looked outside the door. Several spies were escorting a gangster-looking man towards this side.

"Let me go, let me go, I didn't steal anything, I didn't steal anything!" The prisoner's face was full of panic, and he kept shouting that he was wronged.
