Chapter 264: Changing Face in Danger
(October 23) countdown to the 68th day
What happened at the North Bridge had clearly told Yao Xiaoyi that the Eye of the Night had already taken action, and it was extremely difficult to pass through the only four bridges that connected the outside world.
Under the cover of night, Yao Xiaoyi lurked near the bridgehead of Nanqiao, secretly exploring the truth and reality. Half an hour later, she confirmed the guess in her heart, the two suspicious men who appeared at the head of the bridge were actually secretly monitoring the people and vehicles passing through the bridge, especially the people and vehicles in the direction of the city, and the signs of loosening in and out were very obvious.
From where she was hiding, she could see a section of the moat. She first noticed an assault boat, identical in appearance she had captured from the killer who had been killed by the arrow, and due to its remoteness, it was impossible to tell if it was the Eye of the Night's assault boat. After a little more observation, she noticed that an assault boat of the same shape would appear on that section of the river in less than ten minutes.
It is already the early morning of the 23rd, and the appearance of assault boats on the river is itself very suspicious. The assault boat appeared in view once at short intervals, and it was obvious that it was on patrol duty. Who is it and why is it patrolling the river in the early hours of the morning? Thinking of the suspicious people appearing at the bridge, Yao Xiaoyi easily made a judgment that it was the Eye of the Night that was in action, with the purpose of blocking the river and the bridge.
Whereabouts exposed?
Yao Xiaoyi was shocked, if he guessed that it belonged, the intention of the killer could not be more obvious, this was the intention to cut off all his retreats and trap himself in this lonely city.
She didn't have time to think about what went wrong, which aroused the suspicion of the other party, and the top priority was to find a hiding place quickly.
Hotel? Absolutely not. She believes that the killers will soon launch an investigation of guesthouses, hotels and other places.
She hid in the shadows, took out her mobile phone and searched for a map of Qingshui Town, carving the town's main streets and buildings into her brain. She set up a tiny video camera near the hiding point and wirelessly connected to her phone.
She then got up and left the hiding place, dodging the cameras on the street, and picking the alleys to quickly walk through the night.
Yao Xiaoyi searched for the map that had just been stored in her brain as she walked, and soon dodged into an expected public toilet. It is absolutely impossible for a public toilet to have surveillance cameras, which is why she uses the public toilet as her first temporary hiding place.
Yao Xiaoyi got into a partition room in the men's bathroom, plugged in the latch, and monitored the footage taken by the camera she had just left along the way through her mobile phone video.
As expected, footage from a camera installed in the opposite side of a hotel showed two men in black entering the hotel, and despite their best efforts to disguise it, the silhouette of the weapon under the cover of their wide coat was recognized by Yao Xiaoyi. Half an hour later, two men walked out of the three-storey hotel and disappeared into the frame in a hurry.
Yao Xiaoyi switched the video, and the footage captured by the camera near the hiding place just now surprised her. In the picture, an off-road vehicle stopped at the head of the bridge, and several men in black walked down, dressed no different from the two men who had just entered the hotel. One of the men stepped forward and exchanged a few words with the man in charge of the interrogation at the bridge. Later, the man immediately looked around the bridge, and then stopped his gaze on the place where Yao Xiaoyi had just hidden.
Seeing that the man was stunned for a while, his hand suddenly pointed in that direction, and led the men who had just gotten out of the car to the hiding place.
What did they find? Yao Xiaoyi hurriedly operated the mobile phone, remotely adjusted the camera shooting angle, and recorded the actions of these people. I saw that these people came to the hiding place she had just been hiding without mistake. It was a bush, and hiding in the grass behind the bush, you could clearly observe the movement of the bridge. Perhaps it was this excellent location that caught the attention of one of the men.
Several men checked the traces that Yao Xiaoyi had just left, and one of them got up and said something through the headset, apparently reporting the suspicions he had just discovered.
Yao Xiaoyi's heart tightened, and she understood two terrible problems, the first is that the manpower dispatched by the Eye of the Night exceeded her imagination, guarding bridges, patrolling the river, inspecting hotels and hotels, and driving off-road vehicles to patrol the streets, so that in this way, this small Qingshui Town has at least gathered dozens of killers.
In addition, it took Yao Xiaoyi forty-five minutes to reach this public toilet from the hiding point at the bridgehead, because she had to install cameras along the way and avoid possible cameras, she took a lot of detours, so that the public toilet was less than two kilometers away from the bridgehead in a straight line, which means that the killer should soon lock on to the area of less than two kilometers, and then carry out a carpet search of the locked area.
This public toilet is not safe either!
Yao Xiaoyi's mind moved, and he was about to evacuate, when the mobile phone came to the monitoring screen with a prompt of new movements, quickly switched the screen, and the whole person immediately stood in the partition.
Outside the public toilet, two men in black appeared, walking towards the public toilet!
Yao Xiaoyi instantly regained her composure and quickly planned a countermeasure. She quickly got out of the partition room and came to the back of the door of the men's bathroom, so that no one could find it at the first time, and the bow and arrow were already in hand.
After a while, footsteps came from the door of the public toilet. The footsteps stopped slightly, and one left and one right looked at the door of the men's and women's toilets.
Yao Xiaoyi held her breath and aimed her bow and arrow in the direction of the entrance to the men's toilet.
A man in black appeared. He was looking into the men's toilet with his feet in his eyes, and at the same time, he entered the men's toilet without stopping, and then turned his face halfway, intending to cast his gaze to a closer position. Then, when he saw Yao Xiaoyi, his face was shocked, and he subconsciously pulled out his gun.
But he was only halfway there.
Yao Xiaoyi's actions were half a second ahead of him, and the arrow from the string accurately hit the center of his eyebrows.
The man didn't snort, his movements immediately froze, and his body sank immediately.
Yao Xiaoyi rushed forward quickly, holding the body of the man who was about to fall, so as not to make a noise and attract the attention of the man who entered the women's toilet next door.
Putting down the corpse that had just died, Yao Xiaoyi peeled off the corpse's coat and put it on herself, and then transferred the corpse to the partition. She took half a minute to observe the facial features of the deceased, and while quickly applying makeup in the man's appearance, she moved to the wall-mounted urinal trough, so that her back was right to the door of the men's bathroom.
"Nothing to discover, right?"
There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, followed by a man asking.
There is no doubt that it is the man in black next door who has completed the investigation.
Yao Xiaoyi still turned her back to the door, mumbled indistinctly, shrugged her shoulders, and spread her hands, so that the man at the door looked at her back, as if she was looking at a man urinating in the urine.
"Hold on, suspect that the target is in the nearest area." The man at the door said.
Yao Xiaoyi didn't turn around, and subconsciously waved her hand behind her back, indicating that she knew. Then, she heard the footsteps of the man walking outside the door of the public toilet.
