Chapter 419: Tracking
Afterwards, the more Xiang Shaofan thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, so he called Xu Lei over to ask what was going on.
Xu Lei joined the army earlier than Wang Zhengxiao, and he was the person who stayed by Kong Tianyuan's side for the longest time, if he wanted to know some unknown secrets, he could just find him directly.
Xu Lei soon came to the monitoring room, and Xiang Shaofan also showed him the video he had just taken, and Xu Lei was immediately shocked when he saw this person's figure.
"Why is he here, this person hasn't shown up for many years!" Xu Lei said in surprise.
I haven't shown up for many years? It seems that this person appeared at the banquet today with other plans.
"What official position did he hold before, when did he retire from the army, and how old is he?"
Xu Lei pondered for a moment, and said with a little hesitation: "If I remember correctly, this person was the commander of the Second Military Region a few years ago, and then resigned because he had a serious illness, it was five years ago, he is almost sixty years old now, his name is Meng Lin, and that's all I know." ”
Xiang Shaofan nodded, since Wang Zhengxiao had already gone to track down this person, he could rest assured and go to the banquet to accompany the guests first.
In the night, Wang Zhengxiao walked deep and shallow in that dark alley, and he didn't understand why he couldn't catch up with the old man. The young body, in this narrow alley, always feel that he can't take a step, if an old man walks here, I'm afraid it will be difficult to move an inch.
After tracking for about ten minutes, Wang Zhengxiao still didn't see the old man, and he continued to grope forward, hoping to get some clues.
Fortunately, this alley is a road, and if there are some forks in the middle, it will be even more impossible for him to catch up with the people in front of him.
After a period of difficult exploration, Wang Zhengxiao saw a burst of lights in front of him.
When she came to the downtown area, Wang Zhengxiao looked up at the flashing lights on the high-rise buildings and felt that the goal was already very slim.
Disappointed, Wang Zhengxiao suddenly saw the person he was looking for, he was walking out of a fast food restaurant, and then walked around the street in the opposite direction to himself.
This old guy seems to be deliberately teasing himself, so many roads are not taken, but he wants to go in the farthest direction from himself, could it be that he knows that someone will follow him behind him?
Wang Zhengxiao quickly ruled out this idea, and he only tracked him after he had traveled for a while, during which even if the old man looked back, he would not find any clues.
Wang Zhengxiao continued to speed up the pace to catch up, but the old man walked forward quickly as if he had stepped on the hot wheels under his feet, as if he wanted to get rid of Wang Zhengxiao.
After chasing for a while, Wang Zhengxiao found that he was getting farther and farther away from the city, and the road ahead was a section of the road from the city to the suburbs, which could become a barren mountain and a wild mountain, if a young girl walked here alone at night, she would either be hijacked by a pervert, or she would encounter some strange things.
Legends about horror are always common, although Wang Zhengxiao is a special soldier, but walking alone in this desolate night is also terrifying.
The old man in front of him looked calm, not afraid of the surrounding scenery at all, and kept walking forward unhurriedly.
My good man, what the hell is this old man going to do? Aren't you afraid of getting lost at night?
The deeper she went, the more Wang Zhengxiao didn't want to continue tracking, and the shadows of wild animals that appeared in the grass on the side of the road, accompanied by the bleak owl calls, made people feel creepy.
Finally, near a suburban village, the old man turned a corner and walked into a village that was still somewhat inhabited.
What is this old man doing in the village? Wang Zhengxiao knows that he is not following an ordinary person, at least he is still an old figure of the military region, and even if he stays, there are family houses specially arranged for them by the military region.
It would be even more strange, if it was to visit relatives, he could have taken a car specially prepared for old officers in the Shanghai Military Region, and it was also convenient to come to this place, but this old man was walking alone, could it be that he had this special hobby?
No matter how much it was, Wang Zhengxiao continued to track forward, and followed him into the village.
This village is called Huaxi Village, it is an old village near Kyoto, in recent years, the city has developed rapidly, and most of the people in the village have gone out to work, so the whole village is particularly desolate, except for the elderly and young # children, there are almost no young adults living in the village.
Could it be that this old officer really came to visit one of his relatives? Wang Zhengxiao felt that Xiang Shaofan must have been too worried, and he groped from house to house, hoping to find the old man's whereabouts.
There was silence all around, and it was impossible to hear the sound of any family opening the door and shouting, as if Wang Zhengxiao was the only one who came here.
Suddenly there was a cold war, Wang Zhengxiao glanced back at the road he came, and always felt a little terrifying.
Wang Zhengxiao always felt that something was wrong, he continued to walk a few steps forward, and after feeling that it was impossible to find the figure of the old man, he planned to return the same way and report to Xiang Shaofan about his investigation.
Although he couldn't see the last of the old officer, he was at least sure that the man was in this village now, and as for what he was doing, he couldn't open the door from door to door and ask, right?
After thinking for a while, Wang Zhengxiao was ready to turn back the way he came, but after a few back-and-forth in the alley of this village, he saw the same scene.
Could it be that he was lost? Wang Zhengxiao looked back at the gloomy path, then at the closed door in front of him, and decided to knock on the door to ask the fellow countryman what was going on.
"Don't do anything, are you looking for me?" An equally gloomy voice came, and Wang Zhengxiao turned his head nervously to look at the old soldier.
He was wearing an khaki military uniform, and the badges on his shoulders were a bit old, but it was clear that he was an old military commander.
"Senior, why did you come here in the middle of the night?" asked Wang Zhengxiao, trying to restrain the fear in his heart.
"Hehe, these things shouldn't be in your hands, but you just want to get involved in this kind of idle matter, since it's not Xiang Shaofan, let's take you under the knife first!" Many black figures suddenly appeared behind the old man, their whole bodies were covered in black masks, only the eyes were two dazzling ruby colors, and they didn't look like ordinary people at all.
According to his own inference, Wang Zhengxiao vaguely felt that this group of people should be the legendary ancient warriors.
"Who the hell are you!" Wang Zhengxiao mustered up the courage to take out a pistol from his waist and pointed it at the old man, and asked sharply.
"Don't you know who I am? Haha, these soldiers behind me are my most loyal guards, if you can shoot me today, my soldiers will level you all over China!
The old man's voice was a little hollow, but also with a sense of fear, as if it came from a distant place, Wang Zhengxiao only felt that he was dizzy in front of his eyes, and he lost consciousness directly.
In this way, he never returned to the hotel, nor to the military district.
Xiang Shaofan, who had been busy taking care of the old officer, didn't care about Wang Zhengxiao's whereabouts that night, and he only knew that he would sleep with his head covered after returning home, until Xu Lei mentioned it to him the next day.
At noon on the second day, Xu Lei hurriedly ran to Xiang Shaofan's room and knocked on the door.
It was Kong Mengyi who opened the door, and she also made a "shhhh
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, the situation is urgent, we can't delay it any longer, Wang Zhengxiao didn't come back last night, I searched all over the way from the hotel and the military region, but I didn't find him, I heard the brother who guarded the door yesterday said that the last person Wang Zhengxiao met last night was Shaofan, I wanted to ask Shaofan where he went last night. Xu Lei said a lot in one breath, holding his knees with his hands and panting.
Hearing this, Kong Mengyi hurriedly woke up Xiang Shaofan, who was still asleep, and wiped his face with a wet towel.
Xiang Shaofan, who was a little sober, rubbed his face with his hand and turned his head to look at Xu Lei.
He didn't know what Xu Lei was looking for him, he drank too much last night, and some things were not kept in mind, and it was already a miracle that he could wake up at noon today.
"Shaofan, Wang Zhengxiao went out to run errands last night, and he hasn't returned for a long time, we don't know what he went to do, I heard that the last person he met was you, I don't know if you know about his situation?" Xu Lei said anxiously.
"Wang Zhengxiao, what did he go out to do?" Xiang Shaofan thought about it carefully, but he didn't have a clue.
"Oh, how can I say it, you should have mentioned someone to me last night, I think the thing you asked Wang Zhengxiao to go out to do is related to him. After speaking, Xu Lei also deliberately took out Xiang Shaofan's mobile phone from the side of the bed and found last night's video to show him.
Xiang Shaofan watched the video, and suddenly slapped his head and said: "I know, I found that the old man was suspicious last night, so I asked Wang Zhengxiao to follow him, what's the matter, hasn't he come back yet?" Xiang Shaofan said in surprise.
"Yes, he hasn't come back to this day, I sent out all the brothers, searched in the military area and near the hotel, but I couldn't find him, so I hurriedly ran over to ask you!" Xu Lei's forehead was sweating.
Xiang Shaofan sat up from the bed with a wit, hurriedly got dressed and drove to the hotel last night.
From the monitoring room, Xiang Shaofan was sure that Wang Zhengxiao never came back after walking to the remote alley, until noon today.
Could it be that a big living person can still be kidnapped? Xiang Shaofan felt incredible, this huge capital is full of military handles, how could Wang Zhengxiao, a special soldier, encounter any accidents?
