Elaine raised her eyebrows and looked at her with surprise and joy. Then, she looked at Xu Da and asked, "Did she remember something? (Beautiful) "
Xu Da smiled and said, "Yes, it's a very good landmark. I'll have to trouble you to contact a helicopter. (Beautiful) "
Elaine threw him an emotionless look and said, "It's my pleasure." As he spoke, he took out his phone and walked back to the car at the same time.
The four people followed her.
Li Rui said to Xu Da excitedly and proudly, "I knew that I could do something for Zixuan. Sure enough, this trip wasn't in vain."
Xu Da said, "I hope that Bodhisattva will bless us to find the place where Mary fell into the water as soon as possible and find the factory before dark. This way, we will have more time to save Zixuan."
Currently, the small team searching for traces left by Ceng Baohua in the forest was equipped with two helicopters for transportation. It had to be said that helicopters in the United States were the most widely used in the world. In other countries, helicopters were only used in military, police, medical, and a few other fields. However, in the United States, helicopters had already been used in commercial and civilian fields. In the United States, helicopters could be seen flying overhead everywhere. It was not a luxurious move to mobilize two helicopters for a small search operation.
After Elaine made the call, the helicopter closest to the five people immediately took off and flew over at high speed.
A quarter of an hour later, with the help of the helicopter, the five of them found three bamboo bushes in a seventeen-mile area on the opposite side of the river where Ceng Baohua had fallen into the water. Among them, the bamboo bushes closest to Yang Qingqing's house had withered for many days, so it was naturally ruled out. The remaining two bamboo bushes were almost the same in terms of size, thinness, and appearance of the ridges on the opposite side of the river. At least, Ceng Baohua, the person involved, couldn't find any difference, so it could be the place where she had fallen into the water.
Irene thought of a shortcut. She would draw a straight line on the map in the direction of the two bamboo thickets. After passing through the forest in front of her, the path with a large factory beside it would naturally be the path that Ceng Baohua had taken before. And that large factory would be the garbage factory in Ceng Baohua's eyes.
But the problem was that when Ceng Baohua escaped into the forest that day, she didn't go straight north. If there was no obstacle in front of her, she would go straight ahead. But if there were trees or bushes in front of her, she would go around them. In this way, if it was only a few hundred meters, the deviation would not be too big, but if it was a few thousand meters, the deviation would be huge.
Therefore, this shortcut plan was not feasible. They had to walk around to confirm it.
The five of them were divided into two groups, each of them searching a path in the forest. Xu Da and Yi Lian were in one group, while Li Rui, Yang Xiang and Ceng Baohua were in the other group. Irene gave a wireless headset with a GPS function to Li Rui for communication between the two groups.
This type of wireless headset was used exclusively by the FBI. It used satellite transmission to transmit signals, and it could communicate regardless of distance. However, in real life, it was found that this type of wireless headset was not very effective in places where the signal transmission was blocked, such as buildings and underground. This included the dense black forest that they were currently facing. Therefore, it was very likely that the reception would not be smooth, and it would need to be repeated.
Li Rui's group was in charge of searching the path, so they had to get off the helicopter first.
The helicopter circled in the vicinity and finally found an open space in the forest. It flew over and slowly landed on the ground.
After the hatch opened, Irene said to Xu Da, "Give your pistol to them for self-defense. There are ferocious animals in this forest. (Beautiful) "
Xu Da clearly did not expect that Irene would trust her friend so much. She stared at Irene with her eyes wide open and said, "Aren't you worried that they will cause trouble because they don't use it well? (Beautiful) "
Irene smiled and asked in return, "Didn't you say that Yang Xiang is a super agent no less than you? Give her the gun. It's as reassuring as when I lent it to you. (Beautiful) "
Xu Da smacked her lips and said, "Okay, thank you for your trust. I promise that they won't cause any trouble. Of course, if there really is any trouble, our super agent Irene will help to solve it, right? " As she spoke, she took out a pistol and a magazine from somewhere and handed it to Yang Xiang.
Irene smiled and said, "Of course, I will help to solve any trouble. In America, I will take care of you. (Beautiful) "
The moment Yang Xiang took the pistol, her eyes lit up. She played with it for a while and said quickly, "This is the USP .45 pistol produced by the German company HK. It is famous for its small size, high precision, and comfort. Of course, it is even more famous for its price. One USP is enough to buy two Glocks." As he spoke, he pressed down on the magazine in a practiced manner to check the bullets inside. Then, he pushed the magazine back into the magazine and manually reloaded it. He made a standard tactical aiming motion and said, "There's a slot under the barrel for a tactical night vision flashlight?"
Xu Da replied, "It can be used for both a flashlight and a laser sight, but it shouldn't be needed now."
Yang Xiang asked, "You gave me your gun. What are you going to use?" After that, she held the pistol upside down and wanted to hand it back to him.
Xu Da refused and said, "Irene has a gun in her hand, so I don't need it. Don't be scared by what she said. Even if there are ferocious animals in this forest, they are just small animals like dogs and badgers. They won't hurt us. Giving you a gun is just to give you the ability to protect yourselves. Okay, go down. I wish you good luck. "
Yang Xiang said, "I wish you good luck too." After that, she was the first to go down.
Li Rui patted Xu Da's shoulder and was the second to go down. Ceng Baohua was the last to go down.
After the three of them walked to a safe distance, the pilot flew the helicopter to another bamboo forest about four miles away.
Li Rui and the other two watched the helicopter fly away and quickly walked to the opposite bank of the bamboo forest. They wanted to trace Ceng Baohua's footsteps step by step from there.
Yang Xiang walked in the front and was putting the pistol in her trouser pocket. This time, she came to the United States wearing a pair of light beige sweatpants. There was no belt and the pants were very loose, so she couldn't put the pistol there. She could only put it in her trouser pocket.
Li Rui quickly caught up with her and shouted like a country boy who had never seen the world, "Let me see the gun."
Men all liked guns, and most of them were interested in guns since they were children. Li Rui was such a man. Although he had touched a gun before (he had picked it up and wounded the criminal who killed the police and stole the gun), he didn't have the time to play with it. Today, he had the opportunity to see one of the world's most famous guns up close. Naturally, he wanted to take it and have a good look.
Yang Xiang said, "What's so good about a gun? Just go on your way."
Li Rui smiled and said, "Of course it's good. Just let me see it, please."
Yang Xiang was amenable to coaxing but not coercion. She couldn't resist his pleading and gave him a look of disdain. She took out the gun and handed it to him.
Li Rui took it in his hand and felt that it was very heavy. When he looked at it from the side, he felt that the gun wasn't big, but when he held it in his hand, it was a little big. It was much longer and heavier than the domestic six-axis guns he had seen before. Of course, it felt more powerful. He tried to raise it with one hand and aimed. Although he didn't have a target, he felt that with a gun in hand, the world was mine. He felt that even if he was facing a fierce tiger, he still had the power to fight.
Before he had seen enough, Yang Xiang had already reached out and snatched it away. She complained, "Are you here to save the Zixuan or to play with guns?"
Li Rui smiled embarrassedly and said, "I hope this rescue mission doesn't need guns."
Yang Xiang said with a cold expression, "That's not up to you."
The three of them quickly walked to the other side of the bamboo fence and turned to face the forest. Li Rui pointed to the south and asked Ceng Baohua, "Mary, try to recall. Did you run from that direction?"
Ceng Baohua nodded and said, "The environment should be like this. The trees don't grow in any pattern. Occasionally, there will be knee-high bushes. It's hard to find a path. But if you want to talk about the details, I can't remember whether I ran from here or not. "
Li Rui said, "Then there's no other way. We can only make a trip. Let's speed up and try to get out in an hour. "
After he said that, the three of them walked towards the forest in the south.
The United States was vast and sparsely populated. It had already passed the era of industrialization, so environmental protection was very good. Take the highways in the United States for example. Other than the occasional few modern agricultural estates, there was basically no farmland. There were more forests and grasslands, as well as countless lakes and rivers. Any random forest could be a huge forest with a radius of tens or even hundreds of miles. There were all kinds of trees and all kinds of animals in it.
The forest in front of them was very large. The trees in it were as tall as the sky. Many of the trees were so big that three or four people could hug them. Occasionally, they could see deer, wild rabbits, and unknown small animals. As for birds, there were countless of them. They existed in the air, on the ground, and in the trees. They chirped and chirped, so it didn't seem lonely.
