Chapter 1479: It's Gone Again
A distance of 15 kilometers is nothing in normal times. But in a bumpy valley, it's a different story.
The Secret Service team drove cautiously for two hours before approaching the armed village that Yuri had mentioned.
Who knows, just when everyone parked the car in a secret area, ready to go to find out the situation. Pu Jiayou suddenly received a message from Chief Li Jing.
"Detective Zhao," after reading the information, Pu Jiayou hurriedly introduced to Zhao Yu, "After the accident of the exploration team, the local police have carefully investigated the images of cars captured at nearby intersections.
"Since the initial focus was all on large vehicles, the preliminary investigation was biased and no suspicious vehicles were found.
"However, when we focused on the hot air balloon, the local police also shifted the focus of their investigation to ordinary vehicles that could be carrying the hot air balloon!"
"That's right!" Zhao Yu nodded, "The hot air balloon goes with the wind, it is impossible for the gangsters to go in a hot air balloon, and they will return in a hot air balloon after kidnapping people!"
"Beforehand, they must have driven the balloon to the exploration team's camp in a car and assembled it on the spot. After tying up someone, you have to take back the shelf and the like. ”
"Two hot air balloons that can carry at least 10 people can't be done by one or two ordinary cars!, so ......," Pu Jiayou said, pointing to his satellite phone, "the local police have adopted the most primitive method, they have checked all the vehicles that can be caught in the video one by one!"
As a result, a total of 10 suspicious vehicles were found, which were either unregistered or had disappeared. ......" he handed the photo on his phone to Zhao Yu, "It's all here!"
Zhao Yu browsed through and found that these vehicles were all pickup trucks.
He knows that because of its location on the plateau, many of its residents depend on animal husbandry for their livelihoods. So when choosing to buy a car, pickups are the first choice. It can carry people, goods and livestock.
"Although there is a checkpoint in the valley of Yilmaz," Pu Jiayou said, "but because the valley in that area is relatively open and the terrain is complicated, there are still many small roads that can bypass the checkpoint......!"
"So, after so many days, the car carrying the hot air balloon may have returned to its destination!" Zhao Yu said.
"That's right!" Pu Jiayou shrugged, "In the eyes of the locals, cars are very valuable belongings that will not be easily abandoned!"
"Oh...... In other words......" Gao Ya pointed straight ahead, "If we can find the vehicle in the photo from the village in front, we can determine the whereabouts of the exploration team?"
"It's not that simple!" Yang Feng said, "The Ukrainian just said that the village has built fortifications, and our drones are gone, so it's not so easy to get in!"
"But I think ......," said Gao Ya with a blink of his eyes, shrewdly, "it is precisely because they are full of armed fortifications that they are even more ghostly!
"Besides, I've already checked the information," said Gao Ya, "and there is indeed a village on the map, but it's a small village that is negligible, half smaller than the nameless town we saw before!"
"Indeed!" Yang Feng nodded in agreement, "There are so many armed forces that suddenly appeared, there are indeed ghosts!
"Don't talk so early!" Pu Jiayou said cautiously, "Now that Vakria and Talstan are all soldiers, it is very likely that those armed forces are in political purpose!"
"So...... Let's stop talking on paper!" Captain Pu resolutely pointed ahead, "Let's go to the front first and see the situation!"
So, everyone parked the car in a hidden corner, with Wu Diqiu and the injured Guanying left behind, while the others were fully armed and walked along the grass on the side of the road towards the target.
In order to obtain detailed information, they had no choice but to escort the arms dealer Yuri with them. Before that, they had already gotten the arms dealer's box of weapons through Yuri.
There are the latest mass-produced weapons in Russia, most of them are rifles, submachine guns and grenades.
According to Yuri, their contract also includes a lot of heavy weapons. It's just that due to the inconvenience of carrying, I just brought a sample of the picture and didn't bring the real guy over.
In this way, under Yuri's leadership, everyone came to the target village smoothly. As a result, when they looked ahead, everyone couldn't help frowning, and they all felt the seriousness of the situation.
What kind of village is this? It's a fortress!
But in the opposite place of the valley, a small city tower about three meters high appeared, and the city tower was full of people with loaded guns patrolling back and forth.
"Damn," seeing this situation, Gao Ya couldn't help but curse in a low voice, and said to Yuri, "What kind of eyes do you have? Where are these villagers, they are clearly soldiers!"
Gao Ya reminded him like this, and everyone understood. Indeed, those who carried rifles and bullets on their backs, although they were dressed very shabby and their clothes were not uniform, should have been formally trained to look at the way they carried guns.
"Gao Ya, can you tell which faction it is?" asked Pu Jiayou.
"I can't be sure," said Gao Ya, "according to the original sources of Vakria, this part of the valley is under the jurisdiction of the Sakru!
"However, the Banner and the Kashmir Gang are also active in this area, and without accurate information, it is not good! The only thing I can be sure of is that," Gao Ya said, "these people are definitely not the regular army of Vacria! At least, there are no tanks in sight!"
"Captain," at this time, Tang Long, who was in charge of the reconnaissance mission, came back from the front and reported, "No, the obstacles near the village have been artificially removed, and we can't approach it at all!"
"Wow!" he gestured with his hands, "the whole valley has been stopped by them!"
"Well......" Pu Jiayou thought for a moment and said, "In this case, then we can only wait for the night to act!" Tang Long ......" he pointed to the cliff on the right side and asked Tang Long, "You can see the situation in the city there, can you climb up?" I said ...... at night."
"No problem!" Tang Long nodded, "Don't worry!"
"Okay, then wait for the evening...... Well...... Hmm......" Who knows, Pu Jiayou was talking, but suddenly found that there was one person missing from the team, and couldn't help frowning, and asked, "Everyone, where is Zhao Yu? Why is there no shadow of our great detective?"
"This ......" Everyone looked at each other, and sure enough, there was no trace of Zhao Yu.
"Damn!" Pu Jiayou scolded indignantly, "Who did I let watch him before? Why is this guy so ......?"
"Captain, captain...... Look at ......" As a result, before Pu Jiayou could finish speaking, Gao Ya suddenly saw a figure jumping down from the cliff on the right.
Immediately afterwards, as the figure approached quickly, people saw that the person was Zhao Yu! Zhao Yu was also holding a telescope in his hand.
"Wouldn't it?" Tang Long looked at the steep cliff and exclaimed, "Can he fly?"
"Captain Pu!" Not long after, Zhao Yu appeared in front of everyone, and said to Pu Jiayou very excitedly, "I finally understand, what the hell is going on!" As he spoke, he pointed to the city tower in front of him, "Hurry up and apply for support from Captain Li!!!"
