Similarly, the Indians, Surgi, Hughes, and the others were questioned by the police.
The crime rate in the United States was among the highest in the world, and the elites of the state police were not to be trifled with. After investigating the scene, they determined the nature of the case: internal and external collusion.
Arizona's management of the national park was very strict. Although the area was large, it was blocked by walls all the way. If a machine wanted to enter, it could only go through a few main gates.
Every main gate was guarded by security personnel, and the ore excavator was not a small tool. It could not be hidden and brought in, so it could only be installed in the truck.
Therefore, the police determined that without staff or security personnel to receive it, the machine could not enter the park.
Considering this, Li Du's suspicion was very small. Although he drove the pickup truck into the park, there were records of the search every time.
The records showed that there was no suspicious item on his pickup truck, and his identity was clean.
In the evening, the state police left after the interrogation. In the park's office, the man with the ponytail slammed the table and lost his temper. "F * ck, these idiots, what do they mean? They think we committed the crime ourselves? Are they looking for trouble for themselves? "
Surgi was very calm and said, "Bonner, my friend, be quiet. This is the job of the police. Since we called the police, we should support them."
The man with the ponytail was very dissatisfied and said angrily, "But you heard them. They talked to us in the tone of interrogating criminals. They think we are the criminals!"
Surgi said, "Just let them be suspicious. They will do their job, and we will do ours. Let's go and patrol the park before we get off work."
The two of them got into the electric car, and the car quickly drove into the park.
When the car passed by the ore hut, Surgi looked at Li Du, who was picking up stones in the field, and his face was very gloomy.
Li Du also saw him and even sent the little bug over.
Therefore, Surgi's gloomy face was clearly seen by Li Du. Surgi himself thought that his expression would not be noticed by Li Du from afar.
The car did not stop there and continued to drive forward, entering the territory of Hughes and his party.
The state police were interrogating Hughes and his party at the moment. Seeing this, Surgi stopped the car.
The man with the ponytail asked, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing," Surgi said. "I have to ask Hughes later what the state police said to them. I think these b * stards might not be very friendly to us."
The man with the ponytail said unhappily, "Definitely not friendly, a bunch of b * stards who only know how to take taxpayers' money!"
The man with the ponytail said unhappily, "Definitely not, a bunch of b * stards who only know how to take taxpayers' money!"
After the state police left, Surgi got out and walked over to Hughes.
Hughes came up to him and said in a low voice, "Why are you here? Didn't you see that the blue dogs have not gone far? "
Surgi said coldly, "I came here to have a chat with you. Will the police care about that?"
Hughes shrugged. "Who knows? Don't talk to me like that. I didn't say anything just now. These blue-skinned dogs won't be able to get any information from me. "
Surgi stared at him with cold eyes and said, "I hope so. Otherwise, you know that not only will I deal with you, but that old fox Owen will also deal with you. He is much more ruthless than I am!"
Hughes, "Hughes," Hughes, "Hughes," Hughes, "said,," Hughes, "Hughes, of Hughes, What are you doing here? "
Surgi said, "What else can I do? I'm here to make sure our goods are fine! "
Hughes said confidently, "There's definitely no problem. I took them out as you instructed and hid them at the top of the Tabach tree. No one will ever find them."
The Tabach tree was the name of the huge petrified tree he used to hide the gems. It was given by the Native Americans who used to live there, and it meant 'the tree where the gods lived.'
Surgi said, "I hope so. Let's go check it out tonight. You do things too carelessly. I keep feeling that there's a problem somewhere."
Hughes rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction and said, "I do things too carelessly? D * mmit, you can't find a guy more reliable than me! "
After casually walking around the park and making sure there were no problems, Surgi and the man with the ponytail parted ways.
After work, Surgi first went to eat a fragrant meal of curry beef rice, then took advantage of the night to look for Hughes again.
Hughes picked up the drone and said with a frown, "I think it's best for us not to have too much contact at this time. Those blue-skinned dogs from Phoenix are definitely watching us."
"They've already gotten off work," Surgi said impatiently. "Do you think they would be so devoted to their job that they would work day and night? Cut the crap and go check it out. If there's no problem, I'll leave. We really need to have less contact. "
Hughes said, "You just don't trust me and insist on hiding them in the damn park. If it were up to me, we should bring them out."
Surgi sneered, "Bring them out? If you run away with the gems, who the f * ck am I going to look for? "
That was the problem. Surgi was actually an Indian immigrant. He had been working in the Petrified Forest National Park ever since he came to America.
Not only did the Chinese encounter racial discrimination, but the Indians as well.
Surgi had also encountered a lot of discrimination in his work and life. Later, he was too lazy to come into contact with the outside world and stayed in the national park.
This time, he teamed up with Hughes to illegally use a machine to dig for gems. He planned to make a killing, then leave Winslow and the national park and find a town where the Indians lived.
After digging out the gems, Hughes tried his best to send them out.
However, Surgi was not familiar with the environment outside the park, and Hughes was not a decent person. If he ran away with the gems, there would be nothing he could do.
The scariest thing was that Hughes would turn the tables on him and anonymously report him to the police, throwing him into jail to be the scapegoat. That would be the end of him.
Therefore, ever since he found the gems, he refused to let Hughes take them away and insisted on keeping them in the national park.
During that time, he kept a close eye on Hughes. As long as Hughes could not run away, the gems could not run away.
Hughes, on the other hand, had no intention of running away. On the way, he comforted Surgi with this. "We'll continue to work together in the future. We'll work together once a year. After five years, we can retire and go to Hawaii to have fun."
Surgi looked around vigilantly and casually said, "It's already so dangerous to do it once, and you want to do it five times? Hmph! "
They soon arrived at the Petrified Forest and found the tallest Tabach tree. Hughes operated on his laptop for a while and then released the drone.
There was a small light installed at the bottom of the drone. After switching it on, the light would be very strong, ensuring that the camera could be used as usual.
