After Xu Da finished speaking, he had already started walking forward. His hands naturally hung down to his trousers, and he didn't look sideways. He walked briskly along the four-meter-wide asphalt road towards the residential area. Looking at him, he looked like an ordinary resident who had just returned home from work. He was natural and casual, but only he knew that he had already calmly observed his surroundings as he walked, but he never made any exaggerated movements of looking around.
Li Rui was slightly behind, about three to four meters away from Xu Da. His eyes were darting around, sometimes looking forward, sometimes looking left and right, but he also did his best to hide it so that outsiders wouldn't notice anything unusual.
After walking into the residential area, the two followed the road signs and walked towards the garbage dump.
Li Rui recalled the clues provided by Ceng Baohua as he walked. She said that when she was kidnapped and got out of the car, her eyes were covered by a hood and she couldn't see anything. She could only use her other senses to feel the environment. At that time, she smelled the fresh fragrance of grass, so she thought that there must be a lawn nearby. But now it seemed that as long as it was in the countryside, where wouldn't there be a lawn? Therefore, this clue had no meaning at all.
He also thought that after Ceng Baohua and Zixuan were taken into a building, they walked more than a hundred steps inside, which meant that the building was very big. Ordinary residential apartments, or even villas, definitely wouldn't have such a long and large space. From this, could it be inferred that if the garbage dump nearby was an ordinary apartment building, then it definitely wouldn't be the place they were looking for?
As he expected, the results of his and Xu Da's first investigation were disappointing.
The two of them found the garbage dump. It was a very large garbage collection point. There were more than a dozen different types of garbage bins. Surrounding the garbage dump were three groups of apartment buildings in the east, west, and north. Looking around, other than the four-story apartment buildings, there were only three-story townhouses.
It was already very late at night, but there were still people coming over from time to time to throw away the garbage.
Li Rui didn't need to judge from other places. Just from the fact that there were so many people gathered here, he knew that the terrorist's nest that imprisoned Zixuan was definitely not here. Otherwise, when the two women were pulled out of the car by the terrorists, they would have been discovered by the local residents. Besides, there was no building that could accommodate a distance of "more than a hundred steps".
There was something wrong with this place!
The two of them were quick and decisive. After knowing that something was wrong here, they immediately turned back to the car and rushed to the next garbage dump.
On the way, Li Rui concluded, "It seems that the place must be deserted. At least it should be far away from the residential area of the county town. There should be at least one building there. The space of the building is very large, so it should be easy to find from a distance. These two points are very eye-catching signs. If we investigate the garbage site again, we should focus on these two points. It should be easy to get rid of the false and retain the true. Stress this to Elaine and the others right away and remind them to pay attention to this. "
Xu Da agreed, turned on the wireless headset, and conveyed this important point to Elaine. As for whether Elaine could understand Yang Xiang, who didn't understand English, it didn't matter. In any case, with Elaine's quality and ability, she could complete the task.
In the next half an hour, the two of them rushed to two garbage sites in a row. They were surprisingly similar to the first garbage site. The two garbage sites were also located in the residential area. Naturally, they were not the targets that the two of them were looking for.
The results of the investigation on Elaine's side were similar. They had already investigated two garbage sites, which were also garbage recycling sites in the residential area. They didn't match the clues provided by Ceng Baohua at all. They were rushing to the third site.
In other words, there were only two garbage sites left out of the seven. If the remaining two didn't meet the conditions, not only did it mean that their previous reasoning was wrong and all of it had to be overturned, they also had to work overtime to check the remaining 34 garbage sites out of the 41. This was undoubtedly a very difficult task, and it was extremely time-consuming.
On the way to the fourth garbage site, which was also the most central one, Li Rui and Xu Da were a little disappointed and nervous. They were disappointed because they had already searched three garbage sites, but they didn't find anything. They were nervous because if the next garbage site was also near the residential area, what should they do? Did they really have to go through the 34 garbage sites that they had eliminated? Was there enough time left to investigate?
The most central garbage site was a little far away. The car was driven by Xu Da on the spacious and deep forest road. The road was very narrow, barely allowing two cars to pass each other. However, the road conditions were very good, unlike the secondary roads in the country. Many of the roads were filled with potholes from the mud trucks that transported gravel and sand.
There were lush forests on both sides of the road. Occasionally, there were a few villas with lights on. Occasionally, they could see a few lakes that reflected the light of the stars and the moon. Along the way, they even saw a herd of deer wandering around the grassland. From time to time, there were warning signs by the roadside to remind drivers to be careful of the herd of deer.
The closer they got to the garbage site, the stranger Li Ruixin felt. He felt his heart beating wildly, as if it was going to jump out of his chest. He looked at Xu Da and said, "I feel that this is the garbage site. Zixuan must be imprisoned here."
Xu Da looked at him in surprise and said, "What do you feel? Is it your sixth sense? "
Li Rui didn't know what to say. After all, he couldn't be sure whether it was because of Bodhisattva's blessings that triggered his sixth sense, or because of the compensation for not finding anything in the previous three garbage sites. He had no choice but to secretly suppress his throbbing emotions and follow the car quickly.
After the car made a sharp turn, the road ahead suddenly opened up. There were no more forests, only a small hill that slowly rose. Looking from afar under the bright and clear moonlight, the hill was about a kilometer away from the sharp turn they had just made. There were dark manors scattered around the hill.
Li Rui suddenly shouted, "Stop the car."
Xu Da seemed to have wanted to stop the car. When he heard Li Rui's voice, he had already stepped on the brakes. The car steadily stopped by the side of the road, then he turned off all the lights.
Xu Da looked at Li Rui and said seriously, "Even if you didn't ask me to stop, I would have stopped anyway."
Li Rui asked, "You can see that something is wrong too?"
Xu Da turned on the car's roof lights, took the garbage distribution map and looked at it. He looked at the GPS and finally pointed at the garbage site in the middle of the map and said, "Based on the distance and direction, the garbage site should be on that hill. There is no residential area there, and the general environment basically matches the two points you just analyzed. I suspect that it's very likely there. "After he finished speaking, he turned off the engine and turned off the car's roof lights.
Li Rui said, "I think so too, that's why I want you to stop the car. Let's observe from a distance first so that we don't alert the enemy." After he finished speaking, he took the infrared telescope, put it in front of his eyes, and looked over after adjusting the focal length.
The scene seen through the telescope was naturally much clearer than what could be seen with the naked eye. Through the high-power infrared telescope, they could see that the background of the scenery in the lens was green. The entrance of the manor on the hill was facing the direction they had come from. The manor was surrounded by light-colored high walls, and there were two buildings inside, one big and one small. The big one was three stories high and looked very long, while the small one was two stories high and was square. It was located inside the entrance, like a gatehouse, and was not particularly eye-catching. On the roof of the big building, there were two satellite receiving antennas in the shape of a large pot, which were particularly eye-catching. The entrance of the manor was closed, and there was not a single trace of light, as if no one lived there.
"Do you see anything?" Suddenly, Xu Da's voice came from the side.
Li Rui nodded, took off the telescope, and handed it to him. He said, "There are only two buildings on the hill, and there is no neighborhood nearby. The large building looks very long, and it should be enough for the two women to walk a hundred steps inside. I feel that there is a ninety percent chance that it's here."
Xu Da did not comment, and looked seriously for a while, and said, "There is not a single light in the manor, as if no one lives there, but in fact, there are infrared anti-radiation alarms installed on the walls, and infrared surveillance cameras under the eaves of the gatehouse at the entrance of the entrance. There are curtains on the windows of several rooms in the building, so it is obvious that someone lives there, and the people inside are very vigilant, or the level of security is very high."
Li Rui secretly admired his careful observation, and shouted, "Isn't this what a terrorist's nest should look like?"
Xu Da said, "We can't be sure yet, let's observe for a while. Anyway, we have an appointment with Helene and the others to check the fourth garbage spot together after a while. They haven't arrived yet, so let's wait for them while observing the manor."
The two of them alternated using the high-powered infrared telescope to observe the movements of the manor. After watching for more than 15 minutes, they found that the manor was very quiet, and there was not a single person in sight.
Li Rui asked Xu Da doubtfully, "Is everyone in the house?"
Xu Da shook his head and said, "I'm not sure, but there is not a single person in the infrared telescope. If there is someone living there, then they must be in the building. "
After he finished speaking, he contacted Helene with his wireless headset and said, "What is the result of your investigation of the third garbage spot? We have already rushed to the garbage spot in the middle and found this very suspected terrorist's nest. If you have nothing to do, hurry over as soon as possible, and we will investigate together. (Beautiful) "
Helene replied, "We are already on the way, ten minutes away from you … The results of our investigation are very bad, now we can only rely on the one you are in. (Beautiful) "
Xu Da said okay, ended the call, and picked up the binoculars again.
After a while, Xu Da put down the binoculars and said, "I see that garbage spot, to the left of the main entrance, there is a trash can there now."
