Animal Detective

Chapter 152 Air Raid Shelter

Jiang Wengang walked beside Shen Xin, holding a flashlight.

DouDou is very clever. When there is only one road, she will speed up and then stop at the fork in the road to confirm the direction.

This shortens the time.

The air-raid shelter was built decades ago and has long been abandoned.

It is a long road, with sections built of standard concrete and sections that are still under construction.

Then there are various rooms for storing supplies.

It is said that the air-raid shelters cover the entire Lishan Mountain, and are interconnected in all directions, making them comparable to a maze.

There are also numbers on the wall.

Some are the original ones, and some were made up by adventure enthusiasts later.

There are guides made by professionals online, in case people get lost inside.

DouDou hadn't lost the source of the scent. After turning two corners and chasing for about two hundred meters, Jiang Wengang suddenly shouted, "Who's there?"

Shen Xin instinctively reached for his gun.

Then they heard footsteps and saw light at the bend ahead.

The next moment, a man and a woman appeared.

I was startled to see such a large group of people.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Wengang asked in a deep voice.

The young boy nearly dropped his flashlight, saying, "We...we came here to explore, what's wrong?"

Shen Xin was speechless to himself. Coming to explore an air-raid shelter so late at night, they must have a lot of free time.

"Get out of here quickly," Jiang Wengang waved his hand.

The young boy saw the police dog vest on the knight and guessed who they were. He nodded and quickly made way for them.

A minor incident occurred, but DouDou continued her investigation.

As DouDou turned onto a side road, judging from the markings on the wall, they had entered a remote area.

After walking along this passage for almost a hundred meters, passing through a room storing supplies, we finally arrived at the end.

The ground was still dry, but there were many scattered footprints.

You can still see trash.

Over the years, almost every air-raid shelter, except for some difficult-to-access areas, has been explored.

DouDou barked at Shen Xin.

【here】

Shen Xin heard her thoughts.

"Team Leader Chen, Team Leader Jiang, this should be the place."

The two men stepped forward and nodded slightly.

This place is remote, making it a good place for trading.

“Then let’s continue.” Jiang Wengang didn’t waste any words and brought over a small bag of samples.

Behind them, Chen Guo led the knight, looking at him with a resentful expression.

This time, I couldn't help at all.

Li Jiahui led Qiuqiu forward and reminded him, "Shen Xin, don't let Doudou get too close, it's not good. Police dogs have a very sensitive sense of smell, just let them sniff the scent up close."

She demonstrated by opening the sealed bag and fanning the air above the opening with her hand, about ten centimeters away from the ball's nose.

She only stopped after Qiuqiu barked a warning.

After she finished, Qiuqiu started sniffing around rapidly in place.

Air raid shelters are relatively enclosed environments, which are also more suitable for preserving odors.

Before Shen Xin had even finished sniffing, Qiuqiu had already set off.

Chen Guanglin led his men to follow, while Jiang Wengang stayed behind to wait for Shen Xin.

"Did you understand the smell? Remember this scent," Shen Xin instructed.

DouDou barked.

Remembered

She sniffed around and immediately took action, following the direction they had come from.

Its speed is not much slower than that of the ball.

Soon, we were back at the place where we first turned the corner.

The ball stopped here and spun around in place.

It must have been interfered with.

Because Zhu Tianshun brought the money over, and after the transaction, he took the drugs and left.

The supplier, however, brought the drugs, possibly through a different route.

This is a crossroads; the direction Zhu Tianshun came from is on the right.

DouDou also stopped here, clearly having also smelled the scent from a different direction.

[It's available here]

[It's available here]

Shen Xin heard two thoughts. Looking at the direction Dou Dou's head was pointing, he immediately knew to take the right path.

"This way."

Shen Xinyi pulled Dou Dou and walked to the passage on the other side.

Li Jiahui was startled and, without asking any questions, immediately grabbed Qiuqiu and chased after them.

"Shen Xin, is it correct?" Chen Guanglin asked.

"will not."

Shen Xin explained the reason, and Dou Dou looked in two directions. The direction that was ruled out was the direction of the player above.

Li Jiahui nodded secretly.

She felt that not only was DouDou's sense of smell amazing and her tracking ability fast, but she also had a kind of telepathic connection with Shen Xin. She could express her thoughts, and Shen Xin could immediately understand her thoughts.

This kind of relationship requires close interaction.

But she knew that DouDou and Shen Xin hadn't known each other for very long.

That can only be explained by the fact that Shen Xin is more likely to get close to small animals.

DouDou kept running, but the scent source never stopped.

"Captain Jiang, this should be the exit for Tianyue Tower, right?" Shen Xin said as he ran.

The exit of Meicha Road is located southwest of Lishan Mountain.

There is also an exit on the north side of Lishan Mountain, behind the Tianyuelou Hotel, which is also a common entrance for explorers.

Jiang Wengang nodded, watching Dou Dou run around, and couldn't help but say, "Shen Xin, you've trained Dou Dou very well."

They are even more effective than the police dogs at the police dog base.

Sure enough, the customer above exited through the Tianyue Building exit.

The entrance here was originally sealed off by a cement wall, but later a large hole was deliberately smashed in, allowing people to enter and exit normally.

After exiting, the path remained a gravel mountain road.

Walk down less than 100 meters, and you'll see Tianyue Building on your right, right next to Rongyang Road.

After emerging from the air-raid shelter into an open environment, and with almost three days having passed, DouDou's tracking speed immediately slowed down.

But the source of the odor hasn't been lost yet.

But Qiuqiu was already exhausted. After crawling out of the air-raid shelter, it was completely bewildered and just kept spinning in place.

Li Jiahui sighed and had no choice but to follow with Qiuqiu in her hand.

DouDou slowly chased after Rongyang Road to the intersection, where it stopped and prepared to cross the road.

Without hesitation, Jiang Wengang immediately called Li Teng to stop the car and then crossed the road.

Upon reaching the other side, DouDou must have lost its scent source.

Rongyang Road is busy with traffic, and it's been almost three days. There are still sanitation trucks cleaning it, so it's normal for odor sources to be discarded.

Furthermore, it's uncertain whether the previous owner walked or had transportation.

Chen Guanglin looked up to look for surveillance footage, but even if he found it, it would be difficult to filter it out in a short time.

The timeframe is three hours, and the supplier might arrive earlier.

People come and go, and you can't tell who they are, so there's no way to filter them.

Shen Xin then thought of Li Jiahui's method: if the source of the odor is lost, expand the range.

The question now is whether to go left or right.

"Captain Jiang, if we assume the suspect lives nearby, which side would he choose?" Shen Xin asked.

Let's make a bold guess: the suspect didn't use any vehicle, lived nearby, and then walked or rode an electric scooter to make the transaction.

Because this is a very good and convenient trading location.

The other party doesn't only have Zhu Tianshun as a downstream client.

Jiang Wengang looked around, frowned and thought for a moment, then pointed to the left, which was the west.

“Ahead lies Huibei Village, with a vegetable market and old residential areas. It’s crowded and diverse, making it easy to hide,” Jiang Wengang analyzed.

For drug dealers, hiding in a rural village is unrealistic; it only makes them more conspicuous.

The more crowded the place, the easier it is for them to hide.

Shen Xin nodded, agreeing with her own thoughts.

"Let's go then."

Without hesitation, Chen Guanglin gave a call, and the group immediately headed towards Huibei Village.

Walk about 400 meters to the intersection of Huibei Village. Across the street is a shopping mall called Lebaihui, which is a popular destination for residents of the surrounding area.

Then, as they approached the intersection, DouDou suddenly barked.

She detected the scent.

Then DouDou turned onto the pedestrian path from the fork in the flower bed in front of her.

The area on the right actually belongs to Huibei Village.

It's similar to Yongsheng New Village; it's old, dilapidated, and has a complicated environment. For example, any side road between the surrounding shops could be an entrance.

Moreover, the earlier bold speculation proved correct: the suspect chose to live nearby to facilitate the transaction.
