"There's no need to look at the cars!" Zhao Yu drew a simple sketch on the sand, then pointed to a corner and said, "The hot air balloons have not been collected yet. They are placed in the corner of the wall! It's so obvious! "
"Wow! There really are hot air balloons! "Hearing this, everyone was shocked. But the observant Gao Ya still saw the problem. She pointed to the cliff that Zhao Yu had just climbed up and asked, "How did you see the bottom of the wall from up there? Could it be … "
"You're right!" Zhao Yu nodded and admitted. "I have X-ray vision!"
"…"
Everyone was speechless. Gao Ya clutched her chest awkwardly.
"Junior, can you let me finish my sentence first?" Tang Long didn't care about the X-ray Vision. He asked anxiously, "Detective Zhao, you just said that you know what's going on. What's going on?"
"Oil! If I'm not wrong, the reason why the exploration team disappeared was because of oil! " Zhao Yu rolled up his sleeves and pointed to the depths of the camp on the sketch. "There's a long row of sheds there, and there are several black oil pits under the sheds. That stuff is most likely oil!"
"Wait …" Gao Ya suddenly raised her arm. "Since there are sheds, how did you see what's under the sheds?"
"This …" Zhao Yu was stunned.
"Are you stupid?" Tang Long glanced at Gao Ya and said seriously, "Didn't he say that Detective Zhao is nearsighted? Godly Detective Zhao is nearsighted, oh no, X-ray vision! "
"…"
Tang Long's words made the atmosphere even more awkward.
"You mean …" Pu Jiayou pondered over Zhao Yu's words and guessed, "These people kidnapped the exploration team for oil? Isn't this a bit of a joke? "
"Yeah, for what?" Gao Ya spread out her hands and retorted, "To let the exploration team assess the amount of oil they have stored?"
"Maybe … maybe it's oil refinery?" Zhao Yu frowned and said, "I saw a lot of machinery and equipment under another huge shed. Some places were even on fire. From the looks of it, they were refining oil!"
"Crazy, crazy!" Gao Ya waved her hand again. "That's a geological exploration team, looking for mineral deposits. How could it be oil refinery?
"Also, how can you refine oil next to an oil pit? Detective Zhao, is there a side effect of your X-ray vision? "
"Mm … Alright!" Zhao Yu shook his head. "Did you know that I climbed very high just now? There are gaps in the roofs of those wooden sheds, so I can still see the situation inside clearly! "
"Wait," Gao Ya interrupted Zhao Yu again. "If there's a gap, why would you need a roof? Won't it still leak when it rains? "
"It doesn't even rain once a year in this damned place!" Tang Long was about to explode. He complained to Gao Ya, "Junior Sister, can't you just let me talk nicely?"
"They didn't build the shed to keep out the rain," Zhao Yu said. "They probably didn't want people outside to see them!
"I don't know much about the environment here, but I can't think of anything else other than oil!" Zhao Yu said.
Gao Ya, who was familiar with the local culture and environment, couldn't help but say, "There are indeed many oil wells in the upper reaches of the Xiaya Valley, including the one in Kazakhstan!"
"Detective Zhao," Captain Pu Jiayou said. He immediately asked Zhao Yu, "Since you can see under the shed, then … Did you see the people we are looking for?"
Hearing this, the crowd finally stopped their discussion and shifted their attention to Zhao Yu's face.
Zhao Yu nodded seriously and said, "I saw them. At least I can confirm that there are three East Asians next to the equipment!"
"Huh?!" Everyone exclaimed. Captain Pu quickly asked, "Are you sure that they are the missing exploration team members?"
"Their faces are very dark …" Zhao Yu shook his head and said, "Their faces are too dirty and covered in oil! I can't be sure from so far away! "
"What else is there to be sure about?" Yang Feng, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said, "Hot air balloon, oil, local armed forces, East Asians … Captain, should we quickly report to Officer Li?"
"Mm … But …" Pu Jiayou picked up the satellite phone and said awkwardly, "Our information is not very comprehensive. Even if we report it, the higher-ups won't take any action!
"At least … We have to be sure that those Chinese people are the missing exploration team members!"
"And …" Gao Ya bit her lip and said, "We have to know which faction these people belong to, so that the higher-ups can deal with the problem!"
"Mm … What if …" Zhao Yu suddenly said seriously, "What if we go in directly and talk to them?"
What the …
Gao Ya almost bit her tongue. She immediately gave Zhao Yu a thumbs up and said, "Detective Zhao, you really live up to your reputation. No one else has such guts, right?"
"No way!" Pu Jiayou felt that Zhao Yu wasn't joking, so he immediately said, "Since they dared to kidnap our exploration team members, it means that they are prepared! If we go in and negotiate, they will never admit to it! "
"Captain is right!" Yang Feng nodded. "Only with concrete evidence can we have the capital to negotiate! I think we should wait until nightfall and let Tang Long climb up to a higher place to confirm the information! "
"Mm!" Pu Jiayou agreed. He picked up the satellite phone and said, "But no matter what, I have to report the situation to the higher-ups first and see if Officer Li has any ideas."
Then, Pu Jiayou dodged the rock and went to the side to make the call.
"Detective Zhao," Tang Long asked Zhao Yu curiously, "your climbing skills are much better than mine! Can you teach me later? "
"I can't!" Zhao Yu spread out his palms and said seriously, "I know the Gecko Skill, but you don't!"
What the …
All the team members fell to the ground in an instant.
In fact, Zhao Yu wasn't lying. In order to climb up the cliff, he did use the Invisible Suction Cup.
However, when he climbed up the cliff, he just wanted to put on an act for others to see. The secret weapon he really relied on was his invisible drone!
The cliff was too far away from the village. Even if he could climb up, he wouldn't be able to see what was going on inside.
Although the Invisible Drone was a special device and was relatively precious, Zhao Yu had no choice but to give it up in order to get information as soon as possible.
Therefore, what he had just described to everyone was what he had seen in the video footage sent back by the drone.
Anyway, the Invisible Drone was invisible, so no one could see it. Naturally, he didn't have to worry about being discovered by the enemy. In order to get a clearer look, he even controlled the drone to fly directly into the tent.
The only fly in the ointment was that the suspicious East Asians' faces were indeed covered with oil, so he couldn't see their original appearance.
Because they weren't face to face, Zhao Yu couldn't use devices like facial recognition devices to identify them. Therefore, he couldn't be sure that the East Asians were the missing exploration team members.
He could only feel that the East Asians were being coerced and not working out of their own will. So, in a sense, it was very likely that they were the abducted exploration team members.
Of course, Zhao Yu wasn't worried about confirming the information.
This was because, although his devices weren't very useful in combat, they were more than enough for investigation.
