Police officer Chen Shu.

Chapter 962 A Grasshopper on a Rope

Chen Shu sat on the granite, turning his phone screen off and on again several times before finally putting it back in his pocket.

The only explanation for the phone being blocked is that Zhu Yiba has infiltrated a telecom fraud park equipped with a complete set of signal jamming devices, and Zhu Yiba's target is only Zorosson, which means that Zorosson and Angsorin are currently in the telecom fraud park.

popping.

Chen Chuan tossed aside the nearly used bandages and iodine-soaked cotton balls, letting out a long sigh: "It's alright, not a big problem, but I didn't expect to lose so much blood."

"Yes, it's just a scratch. Thanks." Chen Shu said thank you.

"How could this be a scratch..." Xiao Wang muttered in a low voice, not daring to speak loudly. In his eyes, the two-finger-wide blood groove on Chen Shu's waist, and the flesh rolled up around the edge of the blood groove, was terrifying to look at.

Chen Shu neither looked at him nor paid attention to his own wounds. His eyes remained fixed on a small clearing in the woods to the west. Several things were running through his mind at the same time: Zhu Yiba's current location, how to capture Ang Suoling, the extent of Captain Ma's defection, and Min Lai, who had been deliberately taken away by Captain Ma.

"Minlai, this person is very important." Chen Shu's voice was very soft, as if he were talking to himself. "Company Commander Ma doesn't want us to have too much contact with Minlai, mainly to prevent information leaks. He doesn't expect us to dare... We can't force our way in, or we'll ruin things... We have to find a suitable reason to force Company Commander Ma to take us to see Minlai... We can't arouse his suspicion..."

After quickly reviewing the situation in his mind, Chen Shu called out to Company Commander Ma, who was squatting on the ground giving instructions to his men: "Company Commander Ma, could you come here for a moment? I have something to ask you."

"Okay!"

Company Commander Ma agreed quickly and loudly. He stood up quickly, jogged to Chen Shu's side, bowed slightly, and stood respectfully.

Chen Shu feigned nervousness and asked, "Company Commander Ma, how long has it been since Ang Suling last contacted Min Lai? I remember Min Lai's cell phone and walkie-talkie are with you, right?"

"The walkie-talkie isn't working." Company Commander Ma quickly pulled Minlai's phone out of his pocket. Because he didn't know Minlai's phone password, he couldn't unlock it. "Commander Chen, but I see that the phone screen doesn't show any contact information. Look, there aren't any missed calls."

"What do you usually use to communicate? WeChat, WeChat, or Line? Can we check your records? Also, do you have a command post when you're on operations? Do you report using walkie-talkies? How often are you required to report?" Chen Shu bombarded Company Commander Ma with a series of questions, leaving him completely bewildered.

Seeing that Company Commander Ma's expression was becoming increasingly tense, Chen Shu slowly put pressure on him, saying, "Company Commander Ma, it's already dawn. Min Lai hasn't reported to Ang Suoling since we detained her. I reckon Ang Suoling will call soon, and then we'll all be exposed."

Company Commander Ma's eyes darted around for a moment, then he said with some distress, "What are we going to do? If they find out, we won't be able to escape now! Commander Chen, haven't your embassy personnel arrived yet? When will your armed police arrive? Will they make it in time?"

Hearing this, Chen Shu understood. He knew Company Commander Ma's plan and realized that the other side wanted to use the assistance of the Chinese Embassy and the Armed Police to take down Ang Soling in one fell swoop. Company Commander Ma himself neither wanted to take the initiative nor confront Ang Soling's armed organization head-on.

Company Commander Ma is waiting.

If China and Myanmar can intervene directly, he will reap the benefits. If not, he will seize Chen Shu and others and send them to Aung Soe Ling; he will certainly not suffer any losses.

This is a perfectly normal procedure.

Having basically grasped the situation, Chen Shu slowly said, "Company Commander Ma, don't worry, I've already contacted the embassy. However, it's too early now, and it will take them some time to assemble their troops. Well, it won't be too late; I estimate they should be able to arrive by noon."

Company Commander Ma was conflicted.

First of all, he can't afford to waste time. He could either stick with Chen Shu and the others to the bitter end, or he could switch sides and return to Ang Suoling's side if things turned bad. However, this is conditional: before Ang Suoling finds out, he has the option and the excuse to explain himself.

But once Aung Soe Ling discovers his betrayal, things will become complicated. Chen Shu and the others can run back to China and escape, while he will only have one option left: stay in northern Myanmar and face the bullets.

Chen Shu also cannot afford to delay.

According to his plan, if he intended to infiltrate the enemy's lair and capture the leader first, the first step was to enter the enemy's lair. How to enter? Disguising oneself as one of their own has been the most successful method in China throughout history, and Company Commander Ma's identity would come in handy.

But if this goes too far, who knows if Company Commander Ma will actually take the act seriously and send them packing up and into the tiger's den.

Moreover, Zhu Yiba is currently in the telecom fraud park! Perhaps, the next second, the sound of gunfire, either killing or being killed, will ring out.

Chen Shu was anxious, but he remained outwardly friendly and patiently suggested, "Company Commander Ma, why don't we find a place to rest for a while? We can regroup and set off again when the main force arrives."

Company Commander Ma shook his head repeatedly and said, "Commander Chen, I don't think this is appropriate."

Chen Shu feigned ignorance and asked, "What's wrong with it? Isn't this the safest way?"

"Uh..." Company Commander Ma paused for a long while, as if he had thought of something, and quickly said, "I don't think just waiting like this is a solution. What if that old bastard Ang Suo-ling brings his troops over..."

Chen Shu played hard to get, replying slowly, "That's easy. We'll retreat north now, and they definitely won't be able to catch up."

Company Commander Ma was at a loss for words. He tried to persuade the commander not to waste time, but he couldn't come up with a coherent explanation.

Chen Shu was just as anxious for him. He was prepared to agree to whatever excuse Company Commander Ma came up with, no matter how flimsy it was. But Company Commander Ma opened his mouth for a long time and managed to come up with only half an excuse.

The scene became awkward.

"What are you two thinking? Isn't the most important thing right now to get Min Lai to inform Ang So Ling immediately?"

Chen Chuan squatted to the side, cracking open some sunflower seeds he'd somehow acquired, and analyzed, "Whether they report us and arrest us, or they let us escape, we have to keep the initiative in our own hands. Old Ma, isn't that right?"

Company Commander Ma clapped his hands, saying, "That's exactly the point."

Chen Shu nodded, stood up, and walked down the mountain while agreeing, "That's right, let's go to Min Lai now and get him to give us a reply. No matter what, we'll buy some time."

Chen Chuan and Xiao Wang immediately followed.

Company Commander Ma stood on the granite, feeling that something was amiss, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. With Minlai's walkie-talkie and cell phone tucked into his pocket, he followed Chen Shu and the others down the mountain.
