Usually, the people from the Northwest treated guests very politely. But now that the people they wanted to arrest were all people that Wang Yun had gone to great lengths to find, there was no need for them to be so polite at all.
Therefore, all the people who were brought back by Ren Xiaosu's team basically could not escape the fate of being badly battered and bruised.
The spy who still had one molar left was considered lucky. He was smart enough to reveal the location of the poison sac in advance. Some of them would rather die than say it, but seven or eight of their teeth were pulled out on the spot.
The other spy who would rather die than say it was dumbfounded. He looked at the people from the Northwest who were pulling out his tooth and thought, 'Didn't that girl say we were going to pull out the molar? Why are you pulling out the front teeth too?'
By the time they caught the eighth person in a row, the men from the Northwest were already very familiar with the process. There was no need for Yang Xiaojin to do it again. A group of people rushed up and pinned the man down to start pulling out his teeth.
In the end, after pulling out four molars, they still could not find the poison sac. Yang Xiaojin came over and lifted the man's chin to have a look. "Oh, this person doesn't have a poison sac."
This time, even the men from the Northwest were stunned. "How can it not be?"
The middle-aged man who was pinned down was on the verge of crying. "I'm telling you, I'm the director of the Logistics Division in Luoyang City. How dare you treat me like this!"
Yang Xiaojin raised her eyebrows. "Bring him back first."
She checked the information Wang Yun had given them. After this person passed through two of the surveillance's blind spots, he had an extra gift box in his hand …
At this moment, Yang Xiaojin could roughly guess that this person might really not be a spy but an official in Luoyang City who had taken bribes …
But even if the other party was not a spy, they might not necessarily have caught the wrong person. That was because this time, Ren Xiaosu was not only looking for spies, but also those who had let the spies into Luoyang City.
With so many spies coming in, the only way they could have done it was if they had corrupted the officials in Luoyang City.
Moreover, the problem was that Ren Xiaosu felt they might be able to find some clues from these officials, such as who had sent spies into Luoyang City, who they were, and so on.
He must be able to find some clues.
Slowly, Ren Xiaosu and the others encountered some difficulties in their operation. Some people heard the news and hid in the dark.
When Ren Xiaosu realized that this was happening, he became a little anxious and sped up the arrest.
But very quickly, he heaved a sigh of relief. The flyers they had sent out had begun to work. When they were arresting target number 37, the target had left his residence in advance. In less than two hours, a couple came to report that the house they had rented out a long time ago had been vacant. The tenant seemed to be one of the people in the flyer.
Ren Xiaosu went to capture him, and it turned out that he was the target they were looking for …
It had to be said that a city looked very big, but when everyone was helping you, the city seemed very small. It was so small that the criminals had nowhere to hide.
In one day, Ren Xiaosu led a team to arrest 72 people, 31 of whom were killed by the Hugging Bugs during the arrest process.
Luo Lan detained the remaining 41 people separately in the basement under the villa and began interrogating them.
It had to be said that Luo Lan and Zhou Qi were very good at interrogating people. Under their torture, some people could not withstand the pressure and confessed very quickly.
However, the Luoyang City officials confessed that they had accepted bribes to let people into Luoyang City, but they really did not know who had bribed them and which force wanted to send people in.
When this group of people came in, they offered a higher price than usual and asked them not to ask too many questions.
Moreover, the other party had always been secretive, so no one knew who they were. They all took the initiative to approach them. Sometimes, they would call home in the middle of the night and threaten and intimidate them to complete the transaction.
Ren Xiaosu got someone to check their phone records and found them. Unfortunately, it was useless.
The transactions between these people had all been made through the same phone number, and the coordinates were located in a house.
However, the people in that house had already been killed by the Hugging Bugs while Ren Xiaosu and the others were in the process of arresting them.
Of the 41 people arrested, half were local officials in Luoyang City, while the other half were spies or informants from the Zhou Clan, the Kong Clan, the Pyro Company, and the Wang Clan. Moreover, they did not know about Jiang Xu's assassination.
What surprised Ren Xiaosu was that there were actually spies from the Zhou Clan among them. Why were they not killed?
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu had already regarded the Zhou Clan as an imaginary enemy. That was because he felt that only the Zhou Clan would do this according to the logic he had unearthed.
But from the looks of it, the Zhou Clan's spies were not in cahoots with the people killed by the Hugging Bugs.
Zhou Qi explained from the side, "That's very normal. The people who assassinated Jiang Xu are obviously more elite. They're all the best soldiers in the military, and it's very likely that there's an independent commander above them who's independent of the Zhou Clan's intelligence network. It's best not to let even our own people know about the assassination of Jiang Xu. After all, who knows if there are people from other consortiums in our organization? If word gets out, we'll be condemned by everyone, so we have to be careful. "
Luo Lan nodded. "The commander of the operation is most likely the person who can control the Hugging Bugs to silence them."
The interrogation came to a standstill for a while. It was not that the arrestees did not want to speak, but that they still had not caught the most important person. The information they obtained could not identify which organization had assassinated Jiang Xu either.
Ren Xiaosu relayed the news back to the Northwest. Wang Yun's analysis was still ongoing, and Ren Xiaosu's arrest operation was also continuing.
The only small interlude was that in the afternoon, Wang Yun received a new arrest target.
When Ren Xiaosu saw the photo, he was stunned. Wasn't that the director of the Public Order Division?
He might not know the others, but he had chatted with the director of the Public Order Division for more than an hour, so how could he not recognize him?
Ren Xiaosu recognized it at a glance. There was no need for the crowd to identify it.
On the same day, the director of the Public Order Division, who was rumored to be highly regarded by the new owner of Luoyang City, Ren Xiaosu, was arrested and brought back to the villa.
However, this guy's situation was similar to that of the other officials. He was also released after receiving payment, and there was nothing special about him.
At this moment, Wang Yun was in the conference room of Stronghold 144's garrison camp. He had been working for more than four days and had less than three hours of rest a day. He was starting to look tired.
Analyzing the surveillance footage was exhausting to begin with. After four days, Wang Yun's eyes were sunken and he kept drinking tea to refresh himself.
Next to him, Big Bluff could not take it anymore and tried to persuade him to take a break. However, Wang Yun insisted on not resting. "I haven't watched the other half of the footage. How can I rest at a time like this?"
Big Bluff said, "It doesn't matter if you sleep for a few hours."
Wang Yun firmly rejected the suggestion of taking a break. "No, Young Marshal is still waiting for me!"
