Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 379 I'm the meat bun, aren't I?
"I disagree!"

The Chinese team refused, saying:
"There are too many uncontrollable factors. If we knowingly send police officers into danger, that would be dereliction of duty."

This operation was indeed somewhat dangerous for Zhang Sen.

The risk began the moment the other party took you away.

The other party will definitely search Zhang Sen, so he can't bring weapons or communication devices, and his mobile phone will also be taken away.

In other words, Zhang Sen will be out of contact.

This was not an undercover mission at all.

To put it bluntly, Zhang Sen was just bait, bait that was willingly sent into the other party's trap.

"Of course I know there are risks," Yu Dazhang said with a helpless expression.

"But we have to do it; there is no other choice."

Seeing that the Chinese team seemed to want to argue, he quickly waved his hand and continued to explain:

"Luring out the other party is only the first step; the subsequent tracking is the most crucial and important step."

“Think about it, if Zhang Sen easily slips away from them, would they dare to go back to their hideout? In that case, wouldn’t we become the ones who give them a warning?”

Yu Dazhang paused, then emphasized:
“They are long-term stakeouts, and any slight movement will alert them, let alone a living person running away right in front of them.”

"Therefore, there can be no unexpected events or changes in the process."

He slowed his speech slightly and continued:

"Moreover, they will only return to that underground prison after they have successfully captured the person."

“I’m more worried about Zhang Sen’s safety than you are. He came with me, so it’s my responsibility to bring him back safely.”

Neither of them mentioned arresting the people directly, because they knew that arresting these people would be pointless.

Just like hidden sentries and "feet," even if you catch them, the clues will go cold.

After these people arrest the mentally disabled, there will definitely be a transfer process, the purpose of which is to separate the various links.

Therefore, Yu Dazhang's plan this time was to secretly follow them.

This way, even if the other party completes the transfer, they can continue to follow them.

After finalizing the plan last night, Yu Dazhang spoke privately with Zhang Sen and explained the pros and cons.

He also made it clear that if anyone didn't want to go, they could say so now, and he would never force them.

"Throwing a meat bun at a dog." Comrade Zhang Sen was actually quite clever:

"I'm just like that meat bun."

But he immediately made his stance clear:

"The duty lies."

In the end, Team Hua had no choice but to agree to Yu Dazhang's action plan.

Now that Yu Dazhang is the team leader and has decision-making power, he has to keep his opinions to himself.

Moreover, the importance of this operation is self-evident; any unexpected event could lead to the failure of the entire plan.

And this is the only chance you'll get.

Once the rescue operation in N province is over, Zhang Chao and his group will definitely go into hiding, scattered across various provinces. Those responsible for arresting them will also go into hiding.

One p.m.

Hua led his team to drive seven private cars to the vicinity of the train station.

These vehicles were borrowed from the local police; they all had local license plates and were of different models, so parking them together wouldn't attract attention.

Half an hour later, at the exit.

People who had just gotten off the train walked out of the station exit one after another.

Several groups of people were already waiting there.

"Want a ride? Get in and we'll leave right away, taking you straight home."

"Hey handsome, need a room? Nice environment, Wi-Fi, 24-hour hot water."

"My home offers temporary rest areas at cheap prices, starting from two hours."

Various solicitations poured out of their mouths, creating a continuous cacophony.

This is a unique sight at the train station.

The endless stream of people did not stop; they continued to bustle about.

After most of the crowd had emerged, a somewhat rustic-looking young man walked out of the passage. He wore baggy clothes, black cloth shoes, and his hair was slightly disheveled.

Once outside, he didn't rush to follow the crowd out, but instead stood still and looked around.

He looked like he was visiting the city for the first time, his face full of curiosity and doubt.

"Hey handsome, need a ride?" a young man approached.

"Ah, I, I don't take the car."

The young man was Zhang Sen. He looked very nervous, which caused him to stutter a little and his eyes to dart around.

Faced with a stranger's advances, he clearly didn't know how to handle it, so he instinctively wanted to refuse.

"The price isn't expensive, where are you going?" the young man continued to ask enthusiastically.

Zhang Sen thought about it for a moment, but ultimately shook his head and refused:
"no need."

After he finished speaking, he didn't linger, but followed the last few people who came out and walked forward.

The young man who had struck up a conversation with him earlier stopped bothering him and instead turned his attention to a woman holding a child.

Zhang Sen followed the crowd to the roadside, and when he saw the traffic on the road, his brows furrowed slightly.

It was as if these vehicles were causing him some kind of distress or unease.

At this moment, no matter how you look at it, you can see the bewilderment and helplessness he displayed.

His body was somewhat stiff, as if he didn't know how to deal with the situation at hand.

After standing for a moment, he went to the bus stop next to him and looked up at the bus stop sign standing there.

During this process, he subconsciously moved the backpack that was slung across his body to his chest and then hugged it tightly.

His cautious demeanor seemed prudent, but in reality, it was quite clumsy, as if he were terrified that someone might do something to him.

But it was precisely this demeanor that created a stark contrast with the natural and relaxed people around him.

About two minutes after he started watching, a man's voice suddenly sounded beside him:

Are you checking into a hotel?

Zhang Sen turned his head and saw a young man of similar age standing beside him with a faint smile on his face.

Two men were also standing beside the young man, who were also staring at Zhang Sen and sizing him up.

"No, no." As Zhang Sen spoke, he raised his hand and gestured in front of his chest:

"Not staying at the hotel."

"So you need to take a car?" the young man continued.
"The bus only stops at the station, it doesn't take you to your specific destination. Where are you going?"

Zhang Sen tightened his grip on his backpack, a look of struggle and hesitation flashing in his eyes.

"No," he refused again.
"Before I left home, my mom told me not to get into a stranger's car, and she also made me ride in a big vehicle, the kind where a lot of people are crammed together."

As he spoke, he raised his finger and pointed to the bus that had just stopped at the station, seemingly trying to explain to the young man opposite him.

"Then they gave me coins, saying I could just put them in the bus and get off at my destination, so I went out, and then..."

Upon hearing this, the young man looked at the two people beside him with a questioning look in his eyes.

The two of them nodded in unison.

"Alright, that's enough."

The young man interrupted him, taking a step forward and grabbing Zhang Sen's arm.

"Let's go, we'll take it to you."

Before Zhang Sen could struggle, another person came over, grabbed his neck, and dragged him away from the bus stop.

"However, then, my mom also said..." Zhang Sen continued talking, trying to explain further.

“We know, we know.” The two people said as they pulled him forward quickly.

They looked like three very close friends, talking about something with their arms around each other's shoulders.

The other person jogged and turned into an alley ahead.

A short while later, a minivan drove out of the alley.

At that moment, Yu Dazhang, in an SUV across from the train station, could see everything clearly through the car window.

Seeing Zhang Sen being pushed into the van, he immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and quickly gave the order:

"Attention, Group Four, target is to your southeast, vehicle type is minivan, license plate number is 粤AH..."
