Little Hei ran very fast, but Xia Ruofei, Guo Zhan, and Tian Feilong were all battle-hardened special warfare elites, so they could still easily keep up.
Liang Qiming's laboratory was located in the corner of the campus. Not many people passed by here, so no one noticed the strange scene of three people running wildly after a dog.
However, Little Hei stopped after running for about two hundred meters. It kept sniffing in place, as if it was hesitant and unsure of which direction to go.
Tian Feilong was slightly out of breath, with a trace of disappointment on his face, and said, "The police dog sent by the special police yesterday also lost its target at about this position. Well … Little Hei chased more than ten meters than the police dog yesterday."
Xia Ruofei said calmly, "It's possible that the group used some method to cover up their smell, but don't worry, they can't completely cover it up, especially since the smell of chemical reagents on Professor Liang is very strong. Little Hei is still working hard!"
Guo Zhan nodded and said, "Blood Wolf, whether we can find useful clues or not depends on Little Hei …"
The three of them stared at Little Hei's movements closely. They saw Little Hei hesitate for about half a minute, and then it finally determined a direction and continued to run forward.
However, this time it was not as sure as it was at the back door of the laboratory. Its running speed was a bit slower, and it stopped from time to time to sniff to determine the direction.
Xia Ruofei and the other two followed Little Hei closely, stopping all the way. Little Hei's speed was getting slower and slower, and it was obvious that its smell was gradually fading.
During this period, it also changed directions several times. It felt that the group's route was irregular, and sometimes they even went back for a short distance.
After walking forward for more than a hundred meters, Little Hei stopped.
In front of it was a manhole cover. It sniffed around the manhole cover for a long time, walked around the manhole cover a few times, and whispered at the manhole cover.
Xia Ruofei, Guo Zhan, and Tian Feilong looked at each other and said, "Wolf King, it seems that the group entered the sewer from here yesterday."
Tian Feilong nodded and said, "The possibility is very high. There are many surveillance cameras in the campus, including a few at the school gate, but none of them captured the whereabouts of this group of people. Other than going underground, I can't think of any other way!"
After that, Tian Feilong came to the manhole cover and squatted down. After carefully examining it for a while, he looked up and said, "It should be right! This manhole cover has obviously been opened and put back in recently. It doesn't match the old traces! "
Tian Feilong was also an expert in traceology. After the manhole cover was opened, even if it was carefully put back, it couldn't be exactly the same as before. Even if there was a slight deviation, there would be traces left behind.
"Go! Let's go down and continue tracking! "Xia Ruofei said without hesitation.
Guo Zhan reached out to stop him and said, "Blood Wolf, let me call the other comrades first. It's too dangerous to go down rashly!"
Tian Feilong was puzzled and asked, "Captain, it's been almost 20 hours. Why are those people still hiding in the sewers? That's impossible, right? "
Guo Zhan said seriously, "It's not impossible. We can't fight unprepared! Yesterday's lesson was deep enough. I don't want any more comrades to bleed and sacrifice themselves! "
It seemed that the sacrifice of the old Captain Luo had a great impact on Guo Zhan. In the eyes of Xia Ruofei and Tian Feilong, Guo Zhan was a little too cautious.
Xia Ruofei thought for a moment and said, "Feilong, what Wolf King said makes sense. The most dangerous place is the safest. It's possible that this group of people took advantage of our psychological blind spots and hid in some corner of the campus in the first few days … "
When Guo Zhan heard that Xia Ruofei also agreed with his point of view, he nodded and was ready to take out his confidential mobile phone to contact the other team members.
However, Xia Ruofei changed the topic at this time and continued, "Wolf King, I don't think this matter can be delayed. The possibility that those people are still hiding in the sewers exists, but it's very small. We can't delay the opportunity because of a small probability. Besides, we came prepared this time. We won't be caught off guard like yesterday. What do you think? "
After saying that, Xia Ruofei looked at Guo Zhan quietly and waited for him to make a decision.
Now that Xia Ruofei had been temporarily recalled to the army, he still had the official document in his arms! From a legal point of view, Xia Ruofei had now regained his status as a soldier. Taking a step back, if Xia Ruofei met with misfortune during this mission, it would be considered as an active soldier who had sacrificed himself in battle. The military flag could be raised at the memorial service and there was no doubt that he would be awarded the title of a revolutionary martyr.
However, since he had regained his status as a corporal of the Lone Wolf Commandos, he naturally had to accept the leadership of the Lone Wolf Commandos' supreme commander, Guo Zhan. If Guo Zhan insisted on not going down the sewers, Xia Ruofei could not disobey his orders.
Guo Zhan stared at the manhole cover, his expression changing. He was obviously weighing Xia Ruofei's suggestion. Xia Ruofei and Tian Feilong stood quietly at the side, not disturbing Guo Zhan's thoughts.
After a while, Guo Zhan nodded and said, "Okay! Let's go down first! But now that we have a new clue, the other comrades must hurry over. I'll contact them first, then we'll go down the sewers! "
"Understood!" Xia Ruofei nodded heavily.
Soon, Guo Zhan contacted the other commandos who were on standby through a secret phone and told them to hurry over to Tri-Mountain University.
Then, the three of them prepared to open the manhole cover and enter the sewers.
Xia Ruofei walked to the side of the manhole cover and Tian Feilong immediately came over to help. The workers had special tools to open the manhole cover. It was easy to lift it up by hooking the holes on the manhole cover. Now that they did not have any tools, even if they were much stronger than ordinary people, it would not be easy to open the manhole cover without any force.
However, Xia Ruofei waved his hand to indicate that there was no need.
He squatted down and used his fingers to grab a small gap at the edge of the manhole cover. He pushed it to the opposite side to make the gap as big as possible. Then, he put his fingers in and lifted the manhole cover with a little force.
Next, it was easy with a force point. Xia Ruofei grabbed the manhole cover with one hand and lifted it up easily. It was as if he was holding a ball of cotton wool in his hand.
Guo Zhan looked at Xia Ruofei with surprise. He thought to himself that not only did this kid not deteriorate after retiring from the army, but his strength seemed to have increased by a lot!
Xia Ruofei patted Little Hei's head and said, "Little Hei, continue to track the scent after we go down. But there might be enemies inside. Remember not to make any noise!"
Little Hei had already developed intelligence, so he immediately nodded after hearing that.
Guo Zhan and Tian Feilong watched from the side and couldn't help but feel amazed. It was really not easy to train a dog to be as intelligent as Little Hei!
After Xia Ruofei finished speaking, he reached out and hugged Little Hei, ready to go down into the sewer.
Guo Zhan saw this and shouted, "Blood Wolf, wait a minute! There may be danger down there. I'll take the lead! "
This was also the tradition of the Huaxia army. When there was danger, the commander would always take the lead.
Xia Ruofei said, "Wolf King, after we go down, we mainly rely on Little Hei to track. He only listens to me, so I have to be at the front."
This reason was very good, and Guo Zhan couldn't refute it. After thinking for a while, he took out a pistol from his waist and handed it to Xia Ruofei. He said, "The main equipment is in the hands of other comrades. Take this gun and use it!"
It was naturally the most dangerous to be at the front. Guo Zhan also gave the only weapon he carried with him to Xia Ruofei.
After Xia Ruofei took the pistol, Guo Zhan took off his coat and prepared to give the bulletproof vest inside to Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei quickly waved his hand and said, "Captain, there's no need for the bulletproof vest! You can wear it yourself! "
After that, Xia Ruofei put away the pistol and sat down at the mouth of the sewer. He held Little Hei in one hand and grabbed the edge of the ladder with the other hand. He nimbly got into the sewer.
Xia Ruofei was very confident in his current strength. Even if he was caught off guard, his extraordinary reaction speed would definitely allow him to avoid danger in time. However, Guo Zhan and the others wearing bulletproof vests were equivalent to an additional layer of protection, so he firmly refused to accept the bulletproof vest.
Guo Zhan pulled but failed. Xia Ruofei had already gotten into the sewer. He didn't dare to neglect and quickly went into the sewer with Tian Feilong.
Tian Feilong, who was the last, didn't forget to move the manhole cover that Xia Ruofei had put aside to prevent teachers and students from accidentally falling in when passing by.
There was a very unpleasant smell in the sewer. Xia Ruofei frowned slightly and reached into his bag. In fact, he took out a dozen disposable masks from the Ring-Tu space. He took three of them and put them on. The smell was slightly reduced.
He gave the rest of the masks to Guo Zhan and Tian Feilong.
Guo Zhan said with some surprise, "Blood Wolf, the equipment is quite complete!"
Xia Ruofei grinned and didn't explain much.
As for Little Hei, he could only endure it. First of all, there was no mask suitable for him. In addition, Xia Ruofei still needed him to track the smell! How could he cover his nose?
There was a layer of shallow sewage in the sewer, which was very disgusting to step on. However, for Xia Ruofei and the others, they had experienced much worse environments many times. This situation was simply a piece of cake.
However, Little Hei had always lived in the picturesque Ring-Tu space with rich spiritual energy. When he entered the sewer, especially when his feet stepped in the sewage, he was very uncomfortable at first. After a while, he reluctantly walked forward.
Guo Zhan and Tian Feilong were both equipped with multi-functional combat watches, which could achieve a simple air monitoring function. If the air quality in the sewer seriously threatened their lives, the watches would immediately vibrate and alert.
The stench in the sewer was very strong, which also caused a great disturbance to Little Hei's sense of direction.
He sniffed and hesitated for a while before choosing a direction to go.
The sewer was accessible in all directions. Without Little Hei leading the way, Xia Ruofei and the others would not have been able to find the route of the group.
Little Hei walked in front, and Xia Ruofei and the others followed closely.
The three people consciously lightened their footsteps. Xia Ruofei and Tian Feilong also tightly held the loaded pistols in their hands, paying attention to the situation in front of them.
In such a dark and narrow environment, once they encountered the enemy, the situation would be very dangerous. Even if the other party shot randomly, it was likely that they would be hit by a stray bullet.
They didn't even use a flashlight. They just stuck a small fluorescent sticker on Xia Ruofei's back and pushed forward one by one.
Xia Ruofei's eyesight was very good, and he quickly adapted to the environment of the sewer. Therefore, he could easily follow Little Hei without needing a light. This made Guo Zhan and Tian Feilong secretly surprised. They felt that after Xia Ruofei retired from the army, he seemed to have become more capable in all aspects.
Little Hei walked and stopped. When he was uncertain, he would turn back and judge the direction again at the fork.
The three people moved forward about seven to eight hundred meters in the sewer.
The members of the special forces were usually very sensitive to direction. Although they had turned around a few times in the dark, they could still roughly determine that they were about five hundred meters southwest of the laboratory building.
Finally, Little Hei came to a place and stopped. He softly whimpered a few times at Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei saw at a glance that there was a vertical passage where Little Hei stopped. There was a ladder installed on the inner wall. It was obviously a sewer.
Xia Ruofei quickly asked softly, "Little Hei, you mean … that group of people went up from this well?"
Little Hei immediately nodded.
Guo Zhan and Tian Feilong quickly followed. Now that they were basically sure that the group of people were not hiding in the sewer, Tian Feilong immediately turned on his flashlight and checked the area near the exit.
Soon, Tian Feilong shouted, "Captain, Squad Leader Xia, Little Hei's judgment should be correct. There are footprints on the inner wall, and they should have been left recently."
Xia Ruofei also went over to take a look. He nodded and said, "If I'm not wrong, Professor Liang deliberately left them behind."
Guo Zhan and Tian Feilong nodded at the same time. That group of people was able to sneak into Huaxia and kidnap Liang Qiming right under Lone Wolf's nose. They were definitely the top special forces experts in their country. Naturally, it was impossible for them to leave such obvious footprints on the inner wall just by going up the ladder.
The only possibility was that Professor Liang Qiming took advantage of the dark environment and pretended to step on air when they were not paying attention. That was why he left half a footprint on the inner wall.
"Let's go up!" Guo Zhan said.
Then he took the lead and stepped on the ladder. Now that they did not need Little Hei to lead the way, and they did not know if there were unknown dangers outside, he took the lead.
Xia Ruofei did not fight with him. He waited at the bottom of the well with Tian Feilong.
After Guo Zhan climbed up, he used his strength to open a gap in the manhole cover. He carefully observed it for a while, then pushed the manhole cover open and quickly climbed up.
After a while, Guo Zhan poked his head in and gestured to Xia Ruofei and Tian Feilong that it was safe.
Xia Ruofei immediately carried Little Hei up the ladder, and Tian Feilong followed closely behind.
Soon, the three of them came to the surface. Xia Ruofei quickly observed the surrounding environment.
This sewer was located on a quiet path by the forest, far away from the teaching buildings and laboratories. Usually, not many people would pass by here.
Xia Ruofei patted Little Hei's head and asked, "Little Hei, can you still track that smell?"
Little Hei sniffed carefully, then barked twice at Xia Ruofei and continued to run into the small forest.
There's hope! Xia Ruofei's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly followed along with Guo Zhan and Tian Feilong.
This small forest was not big, and Little Hei quickly passed through it. As soon as Xia Ruofei and the other two came out of the forest, they saw a building in front of them.
"Cafeteria?" Tian Feilong could not help but mutter to himself.
It turned out that after coming up from the sewer and passing through this small forest, they would arrive at the Second Cafeteria of the old campus of Sanshan University.
Little Hei's tracking stopped at an open space on the side of the Second Cafeteria, and then it completely lost the smell. No matter how hard it tried, it could not find the direction.
Was the trail broken again? Xia Ruofei frowned and thought hard.
