Looking down from the hillside, a village and smoke could be vaguely seen in the distance, separated by the grey-green forest and ice-ribbon-like streams. That was the old village that Old Zhang had mentioned, and it was also the last high-risk village that the police could infiltrate in the surrounding area.
In the past half a month, the investigation team led by the provincial public security department, implemented by the Jianning City Public Security Bureau, and coordinated by the public security agencies of the counties near Yaoshan had sent several batches of people into the mountains. They were scattered in various villages to search for traces and visit them one by one, trying to get clues from the local people about the presence of suspicious people.
Searching for traces and visits was one of the most boring and important methods of criminal investigation. A large number of police officers were scattered in hundreds of villages scattered in the mountains. Every day, they would travel mechanically and ask questions. At the same time, to avoid attracting the attention of drug dealers, all motorized vehicles were not allowed to enter the key areas. They had to travel by foot.
But what made everyone even more anxious was that there had been no progress in the search for the underground drug manufacturing factory.
A few days ago, an informant under the command of the provincial public security department of S Province, who was also the representative of the drug dealer Wang Pengfei, had sent back a precious clue from the drug den on the mountain. The transaction would be carried out in the underground factory, and the factory's address was within 60 to 80 kilometers of Yunzhong Village. With this, the search area, which was like searching for a needle in a haystack, was narrowed down to a limited area. But time was running out, and it was too late to search through the night.
Fortunately, yesterday, while the various leaders were anxiously looking forward to it, Old Cai once again sent out the most important piece of information. The Jiang Stops had extracted a small bag of soil from the gap between the tires of the King Of Spades's car.
The bag of soil samples was sent to the Forestry Research Institute for analysis. The test results showed different layers of soil and leaf quality, indicating that the car had driven into a redwood forest near a swamp many times in the past half a month.
The redwood forest was 60 to 80 kilometers away from Yunzhong Village, which was close to a swamp terrain. The comprehensive topography allowed the task force to successfully delineate the final crime scene area. The village, called the old village, was most likely to provide a foothold and a transit station for drug dealers.
Yan Ji personally took on the task of investigating this high-risk village.
In the end, Yan Xun checked everyone's communication devices before letting them go. Old Zhang led Ma Xiang and Han Xiaomei into the forest along the steep slope. Yan Ji stood beside the car and watched them go. He only looked away when the three figures turned into black dots the size of soybeans.
Deputy Bureau Chief Wei's voice could be heard from the car's communicator. "Reporting the situation from the periphery of the village. Reporting the situation from the periphery of the village. Have you reached the transit point? Please reply, please reply! "
Yan Ji took off his walkie-talkie. "Alright, I heard you. The two brats have already set off with Old Zhang and the others. If anything happens, contact us at any time. "
Deputy Bureau Chief Wei said angrily, "Alright, hurry up! Be careful! "
Yan Ji agreed and threw the walkie-talkie back into the car.
The village was surrounded by mountains on all sides. As far as the eye could see, there were layers upon layers of rocks. It was like the legendary Sichuan paradise that was isolated from the rest of the world.
However, at this moment, everyone knew how many terrible crimes and life-threatening dangers were hidden in this "paradise".
Before Yan Ji left Jianning, almost everyone tried to stop him. Even Director Lu talked to him a few times, trying to persuade him to withdraw from this major anti-drug operation. Others didn't know, but Director Lu knew very well what motivated him to go to the frontline. He simply made it very clear: Jiang Stops risked his life to embark on this road with almost no return. It was not only for revenge, but also for his loved ones to be safe in the rear. If something happened to Yan Ji on the frontline, how would the organization explain it to Jiang Stops?
Sorry, you were risking your life in the enemy's ambush, and we sent your target to the frontline to kill him?
What's more, Yan Ji was the only son of his family. Although the Yan family usually had the attitude of donating their useless son to the country, if something really happened to him, wouldn't his father rush to the door of the Provincial Party Committee with a rope and hang himself?
Director Lu wasn't the only one who tried to persuade him. Even Director Liu called to persuade him. Several parties took turns to bombard him, but Yan Ji was like a stone, refusing to turn back. In the end, it was Madam Ceng Cuicui who made the final decision. "You can be a thief for a thousand days, but you can't guard against a thief for a thousand days. Since you said that there are drug dealers who want to kill him, let Yan Ji make the first move and kill the drug dealer. Won't this be over? "
"Let him go," Madam Ceng Cuicui said to Director Liu. "No matter how useless my son is, he won't be scared to hide at home by drug dealers. He's not that useless!"
At this point, Yan Ji was finally allowed to follow the first police car from Jianning to Yaoshan.
Yan Ji looked around the mountains. It was so quiet that he couldn't even hear the birds. He lit a cigarette and looked at the snowy peak in the distance. He narrowed his eyes.
No matter what lies ahead, I will be crushed to pieces if I take a step forward. All the sins and hatred will be ended by you and me.
I'm coming to pick you up, Jiang Stops.

"50 yuan, 50 yuan and you'll take it … No, no, the last time someone from the county came, it was 55 yuan! Selling it to you for 50 yuan is our New Year's Eve. Next year, we'll go up the mountain to collect wood … "
"If you don't want to sell it, then don't sell it! Not even 50 yuan! "Old Zhang put his hands in his sleeves and angrily said to Ma Xiang," We're not buying from them, let's go! "
Ma Xiang stepped on his faux leather shoes that made squeaking sounds when he walked. Han Xiaomei carried her LV Chanel handbag and followed Old Zhang out of the yard amidst the angry squeaks of the villagers. They were almost bitten by the big white goose.
"Come back! Come back! "The villagers changed their minds." 48 yuan it is! Aiya! This mushroom is so expensive to keep! "
Old Zhang glanced at Ma Xiang and saw him nodding slightly. So he turned around and went back to take out the money amidst the villagers' complaints.
"You lied to me. When did someone from the county come and take 55 yuan? How can people come to this place? "
"How can there be no one? How can there be no one? "
Old Zhang counted the money with his saliva. "When did this happen?"
"Two months ago!"
