Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 492 Specialization in the art industry

The positioning device used by the National Security Bureau is definitely top-of-the-line... Yu Dazhang is quite confident about it.

Since Li Mingzhao and his team dared to use it, they must be confident that the other side wouldn't discover it.

His only curiosity was whether the positioning device was external or internal.

Twenty minutes later.

Yu Dazhang suddenly spoke up:
"The car is here."

The other three people in the car immediately looked in the direction of Institute 53, but saw nothing.

"Where?" the three asked in unison.

"It's coming soon."

Yu Dazhang explained:

"There was a flash of light over there just now; it must have been the headlights of a vehicle turning and reflecting off here."

A faint light? This was the first time the three of them had ever heard of such a thing.

Besides, is that kind of faint light even detectable by us humans?

It feels like the three of us have gone blind.

Just as they were wondering, a bright light flashed, followed by the sound of a vehicle driving.

They actually came.

The three were no longer surprised, because they now believed Da Zhang's words without a doubt.

It's unscientific, but it's incredibly accurate.

It leaves one with no room for argument.

Soon, the black SUV sped past them, much faster than when it came, as if something was chasing them.

Two seconds later.

"Chasing?"

It was Xiao Yi who asked this question, and he was looking at Yu Dazhang when he asked it.

He was assumed to be the leader of the group, but for some reason, he wanted to ask Yu Dazhang for his opinion at this moment.

"hold on."

Yu Dazhang, however, remained quite calm:

"We need to keep at least a hundred meters apart, unless we don't turn on our headlights."

He wasn't worried at all about losing them.

With a positioning device, the target location can be locked even without them following.

The reason for having them follow us is simply to prevent any unexpected situations from occurring.

For example, signal loss.

If this happens, it means Ying Xuelian has been exposed, and they must rush over immediately and bring her back.

Three more seconds passed.

"That's about enough, keep up."

As soon as Yu Dazhang finished speaking, Xiao Yi immediately started the car and gave chase.

After driving for a while, a three-way intersection appeared ahead.

Before Xiao Yi could even ask, Yu Dazhang spoke first:

"Go left."

ten minutes later.

"Still to the left."

Another five minutes passed.

"Turn right, increase speed, the crane's going a bit too far."

The three people in the car were numb.

From the moment they started their car, they never saw the black SUV in front of them again.

Occasionally, you might see a small red dot hovering in the distance, but it's too far away to make out clearly that it's the taillight of another car.

Another half hour passed.

They received a reminder from Li Mingzhao:
"The target has stopped. Stay hidden and don't get too close."

After ending the call, Xiao Yi asked:
"What should we do? Should we stop?"

Everyone in the car knew that he was asking Yu Dazhang.

"Don't stop."

Yu Dazhang quickly said:
"Don't slow down, just drive normally. Even if you need to stop, make sure you know their location first."

As the eyes of the group, his words are now commands.

The vehicle continued driving, and soon they saw the black SUV on the side of the road. "Don't slow down, just drive past it," Yu Dazhang warned.

Xiao Yi nodded and maintained the car's speed.

As they passed by the SUV, everyone except Xiao Yi, who was driving, saw Ying Xuelian get out of the car.

After driving for a distance, Yu Dazhang spoke again:
"Turn right ahead and find a place to park."

Xiao Yi obeyed and parked the car in front of a restaurant after turning the corner.

"Report the situation."

Yu Dazhang thought for a moment and said:
"The target vehicle was parked at the back door of a bar, which should be their destination."

Xiao Yi took out his phone and couldn't help but ask before dialing:
How did you know it was a bar?

He glanced at the SUV as he passed by, but couldn't see anything special about it.

I didn't see any signs or signs, nor did I see any shop names.

The other two people in the car also looked at Yu Dazhang with questioning eyes, clearly they hadn't noticed either.

"I can hear music coming from inside."

Yu Dazhang explained in a low voice:

"The sound wasn't loud, but it was very clear."

"What a load of bull..." The thought flashed through the minds of the three of them almost simultaneously.

They looked at each other, their faces showing disbelief.

We're not deaf, so why didn't we hear any music?

Besides, there's already noise inside the car when you're driving, so how could you possibly hear sounds from inside the house from that far away?

We acknowledge that you have good eyesight, but surely your hearing can't be better than ours too.

"Even if you hear music, how can you be sure it's a bar?"

Xiao Yi's question is reasonable.

There are many commercial venues that play music, such as KTVs, billiard halls, and cafes. These places will play some songs.

"It contains Casablanca."

Yu Dazhang explained helplessly:

"At this time of day, only bars would play this kind of music."

The three people were stunned again.

It really touched on their blind spots in knowledge.

Do bars have specific songs?

This fat guy seems to know a lot; he must have been to places like this quite often.

Xiao Yi didn't dare to delay. After asking a couple of questions, he immediately contacted Li Mingzhao and explained the situation.

"You can approach, but don't make any rash moves. I haven't received a signal from Ying Xuelian yet."

This is part of the plan.

After Ying Xuelian meets the two agents of the opposing side, she will send a signal to the National Security Bureau, and that is when the operation will truly begin.

After ending the call, Xiao Yi turned the car around and drove towards where the black SUV was parked.

Upon arriving at the location, he didn't drive there, but instead parked the car on the other side of the road.

“They’ve installed surveillance cameras at the back door too.” Xiao Yi looked across the street, his brows furrowing slightly.

Now they can confirm that there is indeed a problem on the other side.

Most businesses don't install surveillance cameras at their back doors because it's unnecessary, unless they're worried about someone sneaking in through the back door.

To put it bluntly, that surveillance camera was meant to protect against the police.

The four waited in the car for a while and found that no one was coming or going through the back door, and there was no news from Li Mingzhao either.

Something's not right... Yu Dazhang couldn't help but ask:
Why not call for backup?

The support he referred to included special police and armed police.

He had previously felt that the National Security Bureau's actions were somewhat reckless, having clashed with the other side several times, yet they had never called for reinforcements even once.

Special police and armed police are also very professional at dealing with these militants; why not use the resources they have?

"When you criminal investigators handle cases and make arrests, do you always call on the special police to do it?" Xiao Yi asked.

This question caught Yu Dazhang off guard.

He instinctively felt this wasn't a compliment, but he didn't want to argue, so he could only tell the truth:
"No, we can handle most situations on our own."

"That's settled then," Xiao Yi replied irritably.
“The guns we have aren’t just for show. Besides, we need to be more specialized in dealing with spies.”

Yu Dazhang could tell that Xiao Yi's "everyone has their own expertise" was referring to something specific.

In other words, the arrival of the armed police is useless; they can't retain those special agents.
