Chapter 114: The Disappearance (II)

That night, after dinner, Luo Yue took Xie Tao and Zhu Nanzhen to his tent to discuss matters. It turned out that just before dinner, Luo Yue received news that the Red Lotus Sect's army had captured Lu'an Prefecture.

Lu'an Prefecture is located directly south of Yingzhou Prefecture, about 70 kilometers away from Hefei. Originally, Lu'an Prefecture also belonged to the rule of Luzhou Prefecture, and in the 2nd year of Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty (1724), it was promoted to Zhili Prefecture and directly under the jurisdiction of Anhui Province. The Red Lotus Sect's army captured Lu'an Prefecture, of course, in preparation for an attack on Luzhou Prefecture.

Of course, Luo Yue can't wait for the Red Lotus Sect's army to come to Luzhou Mansion, it is certain to lead the army to take the initiative, although the Red Lotus Sect's army claims to have more than 100,000, but in Luo Yue's opinion, they are all rabble, and there is no need to be afraid, and Shanghai has also sent 1 regiment of army reinforcements, which will arrive the day after tomorrow at the latest, so Luo Yue is not worried about the battle with the Red Lotus Sect army, but is still a little relieved about the safety of the camp.

It has been three days since the petition action launched by the infiltrated personnel of the Red Lotus Sect, and the interrogation and punishment of the captives have basically been completed, it can be said that the camp has been cleaned up, even if there is still a little fishing that slips through the net, it will not have any impact on the overall situation, and in these three days, the People's Army has also strengthened supervision outside the camp, and closely monitored the contact points, hoping to find out the Red Lotus Sect personnel who responded outside, otherwise it will always be a disaster, but unfortunately, in these three days, nothing was found, and the Red Lotus Sect personnel who responded outside seemed to be aware of the news, so there was no movement at all。

This also made Luo Yue always feel a little unrelieved in his heart. Because it is too easy to clean up the hidden personnel of the Red Lotus Sect, all the difficulties that were originally expected are gone, but it makes people feel that the smooth is abnormal, if the Red Lotus Sect personnel who are receiving outside can also be cleared up, Luo Yue can still feel at ease, but now the Red Lotus Sect personnel who are responding outside seem to have disappeared, of course Luo Yue can't rest assured, and now he is about to send troops to meet the Red Lotus Sect's army, so he naturally has to explain to Xie Tao and Zhu Nanzhen.

However, Xie Tao and Zhu Nanzhen didn't think there was anything abnormal, Xie Tao said: "General Luo, I think the Red Lotus Sect personnel who responded outside should have been withdrawn, and the undercover agents in Bijing's camp have been cleared by us, and the people who responded outside have no focus, and they are afraid of being exposed, so it is also a matter of love to evacuate all, so you can rest assured to meet the Red Lotus Sect's army, don't worry about the camp." ”

Luo Yue thought about it for a while, Xie Tao's statement was not unreasonable, after all, there was no basis for his worries, and the Red Lotus Sect's army was pressing, and it really couldn't be ignored, and there were Xie Tao and Zhu Nanzhen in the camp, and there was also a battalion of garrison troops in the camp, and there was also a security team in the camp, as long as you were careful, there would be nothing wrong, not to mention that in another 2 or 3 days, the reinforcements from Shanghai would arrive, and at that time, you could leave a part of the camp and strengthen the guards of the camp, so you could ensure everything, so she also nodded and said: " Okay, I'll lead the army to set off tomorrow, you can worry more about things in the camp, although we have cleared the Red Lotus Sect's lurkers, but we can't be careless, after I lead the army to leave, we must also be careful. ”

Zhu Nanzhen nodded and said, "Don't worry, we understand, after you lead the army to set off, all the guards in the camp will remain the same, and it is absolutely guaranteed that it will be fine." ”

In fact, Luo Yue can also see that the attitude of the two is somewhat perfunctory, but when it comes to this step, it is not good to say anything more, and once he leads the army away, it is impossible to maintain the vigilance intensity in the camp, after all, he took away more than half of the army, fortunately, it is only 2 or 3 days, and when the reinforcements from Shanghai arrive, the situation should be much better.

At this moment, I saw that the curtain of the tent was lifted, and Gu Liyuan came in from outside the tent and said, "Several leaders, something a little suspicious happened today, so I came to report it to several leaders." ”

Luo Yue was stunned and said, "What's the matter?"

Gu Liyuan said: "I checked the camp tonight and found that a person was missing. ”

Xie Tao frowned and said, "It's not a big deal to go missing, there have been people missing in the camp before, is there anything suspicious about this?"

Although the camp is very tightly managed, there are now more than 100,000 people living in the camp, and they are all victims from all over the world, so there are occasional disappearances, and there have been five disappearances in the camp before, and the results are unknown, but nothing happened. Xie Tao and Zhu Nanzhen didn't take it too seriously, and now that someone is missing in the camp, Xie Tao and Zhu Nanzhen don't think there's anything suspicious.

However, Luo Yue didn't think the same as they thought, although it was said that the disappearance incident was really not a big deal in such a large camp, but it happened at this point in time, it was a little intriguing, after all, the camp had just cleared the Red Lotus Sect's latent personnel, and the disappearance incident at this time could not help but make Luo Yue think about whether there would be any connection between the two things. Therefore, it is not too much to say that it is a suspicious incident, so he asked, "Who is missing, is there anything suspicious?"

Gu Liyuan said: "The missing person's name is Wang Qiang, judging from the information, there is nothing suspicious, and it has been 2 months since he entered the camp since the quarantine time, and his performance in the camp is normal, and he has not done anything out of the ordinary." ”

Zhu Nanzhen said: "Then what's suspicious?"

Gu Liyuan said: "At the beginning, we just thought it was just an ordinary disappearance, but the five disappearances that occurred in the camp before actually happened outside the camp, that is, when they were working outside the camp, and they all disappeared during the day. But Wang Qiang has no work outside the camp today, and according to the victims who lived in the same tent with him, he was still in the tent before dinner, and he was not seen when he returned from dinner, so he must have disappeared from the camp during dinner time. ”

At this time, Xie Tao also heard a little way, and said, "You mean that he escaped from the camp during the time period of dinner?"

Gu Liyuan said: "This is just a possibility, but if someone plans to escape from the camp, it is indeed a good time to eat dinner, because at this time, the guards in the camp are the most lax, and the attention of others is also on eating, which is more chaotic." ”

Luo Yue said: "This can be regarded as a suspicious point, are there any other suspicious points?"

Gu Liyuan said: "It is precisely because of this suspicion that we conducted a detailed investigation of this Wang Qiang and found an important situation, just this morning, he went to another camp to visit a person during the activity time, and according to the visit records of the camp, his uncle was called Wang Zhong. During these two months, he visited Wang Zhong a total of 5 times. ”

Xie Tao was stunned for a moment, and said, "His uncle who went to visit another camp, there is nothing wrong with this!"

On the other side, Zhu Nanzhen had already understood, and said, "How could he and his uncle be in different camps?"

The division of camps for the victims in the camp is based on the principle of scattering and distributing the same village and township, so as to prevent people from the same village and township from forming a small group in the camp, but if they are relatives, they will still be divided into a camp, so Zhu Nanzhen discovered the problem as soon as he heard that Wang Qiang and Wang Zhong's uncle and nephew were not assigned to a camp.

Xie Tao said: "Could it be that they made a mistake when they divided the camp at the beginning, or that their uncles and nephews are actually just related to the same clan, not the kind of kinship that is close to the bloodline." ”

Gu Liyuan said: "There is also this situation that Chief Xie said, and we thought the same way at the time, but in order to confirm it, we still went to check Wang Zhong's information, and it turned out that there was really a problem with this investigation." ”

Xie Tao immediately said, "What's the problem?"

Gu Liyuan said: "In the information filled in by the two of them when they entered the camp, they filled in different places of residence, not the same village, and in the column of relatives, they did not fill in each other. ”

Xie Tao said: "Even if it is not the same village, it does not mean that there is a problem, maybe the two are indeed uncles and nephews, but they do not live in the same village, and this situation is also true." And if the two people did not enter the camp in the same batch, they would not know that the other party also came in, so in the column of relatives, the names of the other party were not filled. ”

Gu Liyuan said: "There are also such situations, but when we checked again, we found that there were only these two people in the village names filled in by the two people, which means that the two villages where the two are located have only one survivor." Therefore, no one has been able to prove the authenticity of the two men. ”

Xie Tao said: "It's nothing, some villages are all dead, and it's not impossible that there is only one survivor left." It doesn't mean that their identity is fake. ”

Zhu Nanzhen said: "I didn't say that their identities were fake, but no one could prove it, and if the identities of these two people were true, there would be too many coincidences, and you should count how many coincidences there are, so it is not wrong to say that this matter is suspicious." ”

At this time, Luo Yue suddenly said: "Now Wang Zhong is still in the camp, have you asked him?" ”

Gu Liyuan said: "This is not yet. ”

Xie Tao said: "Yes, why don't you ask Wang Zhong?"

Gu Liyuan said: "Sure enough, there is really a problem with this matter, so if we go to ask Wang Zhong, it is to startle the snake, so we did not alarm Wang Zhong for the time being, and only arranged manpower to monitor him closely." ”

Luo Yue nodded and said, "Very good, you guys are doing a good job." ”

Zhu Nanzhen said: "Then what should we do now?

Xie Tao said: "I think even if there is a problem, it will not be a big deal, if this uncle and nephew really have a problem, then Wang Qiang may have sneaked out of the camp and looked for the Red Lotus Sect outside the camp, if there is no problem, it is an ordinary disappearance, in short, we can investigate slowly, but the top priority now is that the army of the Red Lotus Sect is pressuring, so General Luo still leads the army to attack, and the investigation will be left to us." ”

Luo Yue thought for a while, and nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it." ”
