The path is very narrow, basically only allowing your feet to walk on it, and there are thorns on both sides, Xie Xiaoshuai's clothes make a stinging sound from time to time, and a new set of clothes has become strips.

Walking out of the thorny road, there is a stream ahead, and the footprints become obvious when they come here, probably because the other party thinks it is very safe here, so they don't even bother to clean up the traces.

The Sandfox team stayed overnight with the vultures, and they had a relaxed mission and were free to spend their time. Xie Xiaoshuai contacted the transport crew and asked them to drive the plane to the vulture's airfield for resupply, and arranged accommodation for them by the way.

Early the next morning, Xie Xiaoshuai went home to visit his mother, Sun Houqun, and informed his mother about his work transfer. After that, he rejected his mother's request to stay at home for lunch and ran towards Lu Xue's work unit.

This time it was the armed police sergeant who stood guard at the gate again, he knew Xie Xiaoshuai, but out of his job duties, he still asked Xie Xiaoshuai to show his ID and register. When he saw Xie Xiaoshuai's officer certificate with the rank of major, his eyes were about to pop out, he was still a captain last time, and it didn't take long for him to become a major. The sergeant returned the military ID card to Xie Xiaoshuai and let him in directly, and the registration was omitted, because there were two words on the name of the unit on the officer ID: top secret.

When he came to the door of Lu Xue's office, Xie Xiaoshuai knocked on the door, but no one answered inside. Xie Xiaoshuai waited outside the door for a long time, and there was no movement in Lu Xue's office, he stopped a male policeman passing by, and asked politely: "Hello, do you know where Lu Xue went?" ”

"Is there anything you're looking for her?" The policeman was polite.

"I'm his boyfriend, and I've been waiting here for a long time and haven't seen her."

"Oh, it's you! Captain Xie famously, admired for a long time. It's a real pleasure to meet you today! The policeman laughed and stretched out his right hand.

After shaking hands, Xie Xiaoshuai said embarrassedly: "It's notorious, it makes you laugh." ”

"You can't say that, Lu Xue is a flower in our provincial hall, a goddess in the minds of many people. As soon as you Captain Xie made a move, he picked this flower, how many people were heartbroken. The policeman teased.

"Don't laugh at me, can you tell me where Lu Xue is?" Xie Xiaoshuai sneered.

"Oh, sorry, that's a big deal. By the way, yesterday there was a serious prisoner who escaped from prison and escaped into the mountains, and she seems to have gone to the scene to interview, you can give her a call. The policeman smiled, and left to do his own business.

Xie Xiaoshuai lined his forehead, he usually didn't use the phone much at all, and he actually forgot about this. However, when he went out, he forgot to bring his mobile phone in the bedroom of the Operations Department, Xie Xiaoshuai pushed open the door of Lu Xue's office next door, and used the landline to dial Lu Xue's mobile phone, but a female voice came from the phone saying that it was turned off.

Xie Xiaoshuai was puzzled, it stands to reason that Lu Xue doesn't need to turn off her mobile phone when she goes to work, is something wrong? Xie Xiaoshuai put down the phone, ran outside, and stopped a taxi.

"Master, do you know that there was a fugitive escaping from prison yesterday?" Xie Xiaoshuai asked.

"You know, it's been on the radio. Now the armed police and the public security are organizing a search of the mountains to hunt down the fugitives. The master smiled.

"Alright, please send me there, thank you." Xie Xiaoshuai was slightly anxious.

"What are you doing there, young man? There's nothing fun there, young people nowadays, I really don't understand you, they always like to have some excitement. The master persuaded.

Seeing that the master had misunderstood, Xie Xiaoshuai shook his documents in front of his eyes and said, "Master, hurry up, I really have something urgent." ”

"Oh, comrade of the People's Liberation Army, okay, I'll send you there." After the master finished speaking, he increased the throttle and rushed forward.

Taxis are interspersed left and right in the city, and the master's skills are very superb, except for a few traffic lights with a slight pause, smoothly drive out of the city, walking on the provincial road into the mountain.

After going up to the provincial highway, many checkpoints were set up along the way, and the armed police and public security sent a large number of large patrols. The taxi was stopped several times for inspection, but many people knew Xie Xiaoshuai's old face, which allowed him to enter the center smoothly.

The last checkpoint prohibits all civilian vehicles, and Xie Xiaoshuai can only enter on foot. More armed police and public security patrols here, and the guards are tighter.

Zhao Ming led a team to search in the mountains all morning, but he didn't even see a single bird feather, and he was so angry that he scolded his mother. After handing over the follow-up task of searching the mountain to the colleagues who came to accept it, he went down the mountain. As soon as he arrived at the foot of the mountain, he happened to see Xie Xiaoshuai looking around outside the cordon, Zhao Ming hurriedly ran forward and saluted: "Hello instructor." ”

Xie Xiaoshuai nodded in return: "Have you seen Lu Xue?" ”

"Report to the instructor, I didn't see it, we arrived here early this morning. She's in with another group of people, and it's almost time to come down, so you can wait. Zhao Ming replied.

The guard next to Zhao Mingchao nodded and motioned for Xie Xiaoshuai to enter, and the man hurriedly pulled up the cordon.

Xie Xiaoshuai waited anxiously outside the headquarters, and about ten minutes later, another search team returned, but there was no trace of Lu Xue.

Zhao Ming stepped forward with interest and asked his colleagues about Lu Xue's whereabouts, but after hearing what his colleagues said, his face became darker and darker.

"What's going on?" Xie Xiaoshuai asked Zhao Ming, who walked up to him.

"They said that Lu Xue has been following them since she entered the mountain, and nothing has happened, but two hours ago, Lu Xue, who was following them, suddenly disappeared, and they have been looking for Lu Xue, and nothing has been found so far." Zhao Ming said timidly.

Xie Xiaoshuai's heart lifted up at once, and he was always calm and calm, his face was full of anxiety at this time, but after experiencing so many things, Xie Xiaoshuai's mind had already grown up and quickly calmed down.

"Do you have any information on the fugitive?" Xie Xiaoshuai asked.

"Yes, the fugitive's name is Li Bo, male, 34 years old. Retired soldier of the special forces, the original unit is unknown. The reason for imprisonment was that he had a verbal altercation with someone after drinking, and beat two people to death, and was sentenced to life imprisonment. "Zhao Ming is very familiar with the information of prisoners.

"Find me a set of training uniforms, and I'll go find Lu Xue myself." Xie Xiaoshuai commanded.

"It's not in order." Zhao Ming is embarrassed.

"Forget it, I'll go." Xie Xiaoshuai turned around and walked towards the mountain.

"Stop, no one else is allowed to enter." Xie Xiaoshuai was stopped by the guards at the foot of the mountain.

"Get out of the way and let him in." Zhao Ming shouted loudly, ran behind Xie Xiaoshuai, and stuck a 9mm pistol behind him while no one was paying attention.

Entering the jungle, Xie Xiaoshuai was interspersed around, and he was quite embarrassed at this time because he was wearing civilian clothes and travel shoes when he went out. His clothes were torn in several places, and his white travel shoes were covered with mud, and he didn't care about Lu Xue's safety at all.

Xie Xiaoshuai, who was on the move, suddenly found a subtle footprint, and although the concealment technique was clever, it left a trace of flaw. Xie Xiaoshuai took out the 9mm pistol pinned to his waist with his backhand, pulled the bolt to load the bullet.

According to the path of the footprints, it can be seen that the person should have been hiding in all directions, and later another footprint appeared, which was the mark left by the police boot. The footprints of the police boots were deep and shallow, and Xie Xiaoshuai deduced that he should have been dragged along. The footprints are very shallow, and if you don't have enough experience in jungle warfare, you really can't find them. On the other hand, for Xie Xiaoshuai, this person's methods can only be said to be average, and they have not yet reached the level where they can completely erase traces.

The footprints disappeared when they came to a bush, Xie Xiaoshuai picked up the grass and found that there was a very hidden path here, which was completely covered by the grass. The fugitive was familiar with the terrain here, and it was no wonder that the large number of police officers could not even smell his breath. As for the police dog, if the people who come out of the special forces can't even hide from the police dogs, then he is really in the special forces for nothing.
