005. Director Qi, with his uncanny agility, successfully broke through and escaped! (Please give flowers and add to your favorites!)
Torrential rain.
A cool breeze blew through the mountains at midnight, and it was still a bit cold. Most of the people who went into the mountains to search went to their tents to take shelter from the rain and rest.
Hou Liangping was not sleepy at all. He took an umbrella and went outside.
He glanced up at the dim night, a cold glint in his eyes.
Qi Tongwei was his senior, and he had initially felt a little sympathy for Qi Tongwei, but now his heart was filled with anger and hatred.
It was all because of Qi Tongwei's resistance to arrest that they had suffered so much these past few days!
"Director Hou?"
Just as he was pondering a thousand thoughts, Zhao Donglai walked over with an umbrella.
Hou Liangping looked back, somewhat surprised.
"Director Zhao, it's raining so hard in the middle of the night, and it's so cold outside. Why don't you go back to your tent to rest?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Donglai chuckled softly.
"Didn't you rest either?"
Hou Liangping gave a wry smile.
Qi Tongwei has not been caught yet. As the director of the anti-corruption bureau, he is under too much pressure and has no mind to sleep!
not to mention……
“Director Zhao, I have a feeling that Qi Tongwei might take advantage of the heavy rain and the cover of night to break through and go down the mountain tonight. I think we should take precautions, otherwise, he might really escape.”
Hou Liangping said in a deep voice.
Zhao Donglai nodded slightly.
“I think the same way you do. Based on my years of experience in handling cases, what you said is very likely. So I have increased manpower and are guarding the only way down the mountain to ensure that not even a fly can get out.”
"Qi Tongwei thinks he can escape right under our noses? Not so easy!"
The cat-and-mouse game that had been going on for several days left the head of the Public Security Bureau very frustrated and seething with anger.
Now, capturing Qi Tongwei has become an obsession for him!
Hou Liangping's eyes lit up.
He had been somewhat worried that Qi Tongwei might take advantage of the situation to escape, but now he felt a little more at ease.
He knew Zhao Donglai's abilities, and with his meticulous arrangements, there shouldn't be any problems.
However, for some reason, he still felt uneasy.
He hesitated for a moment, then said to Zhao Dong.
"Director Zhao, I'm still a little worried. I can't sleep anyway, so why don't we go and keep an eye on things ourselves?"
Zhao Donglai nodded in agreement.
"it is good."
……
A mountain path.
Less than three kilometers from the main search camp at the foot of the mountain, Qi Tongwei stopped and released his divine sense, taking in all the movements at the main camp.
When he saw Hou Liangping and Zhao Donglai braving the heavy rain to guard the only exit from the mountain, he was surprised.
He hadn't expected that even with the rain pouring down, they would still be so persistent!
He couldn't help but admire the stubbornness of these two!
Although it was somewhat beyond his expectations, it didn't have much impact on him because most people were resting and had let their guard down during the heavy rain.
With only a few people guarding the exit, they posed no threat to him whatsoever.
Having made up his mind, Qi Tongwei no longer hesitated and continued his rapid ascent. (IX)
……ridge
Exit.
To avoid alerting the enemy, Hou Liangping and Zhao Donglai ordered all their men to turn off their lights, and they waited quietly in the darkness.
At first, they were highly focused and dared not be careless in the slightest. However, after more than an hour without any movement, even Hou Liangping began to feel listless.
After all, he had barely slept for the past three days, and now with such heavy rain, a wave of drowsiness washed over him, and his mind began to wander.
However, he resisted the urge to sleep and continued to stay there.
His intuition told him that Qi Tongwei would most likely escape tonight. As the director of the anti-corruption bureau, he was in charge of Qi Tongwei's case; if Qi Tongwei escaped, he would be held responsible!
He can't afford to lose face like this!
Zhao Donglai was in no better shape than him. Although he was trying to stay alert, the prolonged period of intense concentration had left him physically exhausted.
As for the others who are guarding this place, they are all dragging their tired bodies to persevere.
Unbeknownst to them, their every move was being observed by Qi Tongwei.
……
Behind a large tree not far from the exit, Qi Tongwei hid and observed for a while. He was now very close to the exit.
Even in the darkness of night, without using his divine sense, he could clearly see Hou Liangping and Zhao Donglai's faces from this distance.
There were many pebbles nearby; if he wanted to make a move, he could easily kill them silently and instantly.
But he didn't want to cause trouble!
Killing these people would do him no good!
After all, this country is not just powerful, and it is not arrogant enough to think it can confront another country!
Anyway, once he escaped to northern Myanmar, where the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and the sea is wide and fish can leap freely, that would be his true stage.
For now, let's just be patient.
Seeing that everyone was listless and relaxed, a glint of light flashed in Qi Tongwei's eyes.
It's now!
Taking advantage of everyone's relaxed vigilance, he no longer hesitated, increased his speed to the maximum, and quickly rushed towards the exit.
call!
A gust of cold wind blew by, and Hou Liangping suddenly shivered. He rubbed his eyes, realizing that for a moment he had felt a dark shadow flash past him.
"Director Hou, what's wrong?"
Zhao Donglai noticed Hou Liangping's unusual behavior and asked him with concern.
Hou Liangping glanced at Zhao Donglai and said with a frown. ⑨
"Director Zhao, did you see a dark figure pass by us just now?"
A shadowy figure?
He looked around with some confusion, then shook his head with a wry smile. ④
"Director Hou, are you too tired? Did your eyes go blurry just now? There was no movement here at all, so where did that dark figure come from?"
Hou Liangping was still somewhat uneasy, so he asked several more of his colleagues. ⑤
But their answer was the same as Zhao Donglai's. ⑥
No! ④
There must have been something wrong just now!
Amidst the puzzled expressions of the crowd, Hou Liangping suddenly turned around and chased after the direction in which the dark figure had just passed.
"Hou Ju!"
Upon seeing this, Zhao Donglai called out, but Hou Liangping ignored him and continued chasing after them.
He was all too familiar with that feeling; he had to verify it himself to be at ease.
In no time at all, Hou Liangping had disappeared.
Zhao Donglai was a little worried, so he quickly sent a few people to protect Hou Liangping.
……
Down the mountain.
Qi Tongwei also noticed Hou Liangping chasing in this direction through his divine sense.
He was somewhat surprised!
Hou Liangping was just an ordinary person, how could he have discovered him?
This Hou Liangping is really something!

006. Hou Liangping and Zhao Donglai were shocked. How could Qi Tongwei escape when surrounded by thousands of people? (6th update, please give flowers and collect)
However, Qi Tongwei quickly figured out the problem.
According to his memories, Qi Tongwei and Hou Liangping were fellow apprentices, and they often met and were very familiar with each other.
Although he was moving very fast, the aura he left behind must have been felt by Hou Liangping. It was a familiar feeling, which is why he chased after him.
Once he understood this, it was no wonder he felt this way.
Hou Liangping was ultimately just an ordinary person. Even with his keen intuition, that was all. To him, a demon cultivator, G posed no significant threat whatsoever.
After running for a while, he stopped and began to observe Hou Liangping with his divine sense.
There is still a considerable distance between them, and he doesn't need to worry about Hou Liangping catching up with him.
……
A mountain path.
Hou Liangping ran several hundred meters, panting heavily, but found no one around. In addition, it was raining heavily, so any traces on the ground would be washed away in an instant.
Having gained nothing, he could only stand there, panting heavily, his brow furrowed.
At this moment, Zhao Donglai finally arrived.
"Director Hou, it's the middle of the night, and it's raining so hard. Besides, we're in the mountains. It's not safe for you to run so fast by yourself. By the way, what are you doing here?"
Zhao Donglai asked curiously.
"nothing."
Hou Liangping shook his head slightly.
"Everyone has worked hard. Go back and rest. We'll head into the mountains as soon as the rain stops."
Having gained nothing, I had no choice but to return.
However, for some reason, the unease in his heart lingered and he couldn't shake it off.
Seeing that Hou Liangping refused to speak, Zhao Donglai did not ask any further questions.
He and Hou Liangping belong to two different systems, and the other party has a very deep background, so it's best not to offend him.
……
When Qi Tongwei saw Hou Liangping and the others turn back, a smile appeared in his eyes.
Ultimately, we are only mortals.
He shook his head slightly, dismissing the matter, and turned to continue his rapid southward journey.
His destination was the southern border! 4
Because he needed to get to northern Myanmar, he had to find a way to cross the border.
With his current cultivation level, he doesn't yet possess the ability to fly or teleport, so he can only reach the border first and then figure out a solution.
