Chapter 17: Red Buggy

Hu Mingsheng hurried over as promised. In Liu Xiaodong's room, after greeting them for a few words, Officer Hu took out a magnifying glass and carefully observed the wire.

"You found this?" Putting down the magnifying glass, Hu Mingsheng looked up at Liu Xiaodong.

"Yes!"

Hu Mingsheng's gaze moved to the inconspicuous broken wire: "May I ask what you do?" ”

"He's a journalist, a magazine reporter!" Guo Yingxin replied.

Hu Mingsheng looked up at Liu Xiaodong again, with a smile on his face: "This clue is very important!" Thank you. ”

Hu Mingsheng carefully inquired about the process by which they found the wire, and finally put it in his handbag and said goodbye to them. Liu Xiaodong and Guo Yixin sent Hu Mingsheng to the door of the hotel.

Hu Mingsheng said: "We will immediately send this wire for identification...... Also, you must pay attention to safety and go back as soon as possible. ”

"Officer Hu, is there any progress in this case now?" Guo Yixin asked.

Hu Mingsheng thought for a while and said: "How to say, the investigation is gradually advancing, but there is no substantial breakthrough yet. During this time, we are concentrating on the investigation of suspicious vehicles and places around Lop Nur, and it will take some time. He said, walking towards the Santana police car parked on the side of the road.

Liu Xiaodong plans to spend a day in town tomorrow and interview random people who are based in the town. But Guo Yixin made Liu Xiaodong change his plans.

At half past eleven o'clock in the evening, Liu Xiaodong fell asleep in a daze while lying on the bed, and the TV was not turned off. The mobile phone rang suddenly, he moved slowly, and picked up the phone with sleepy eyes, and saw that it was Guo Yixin calling.

"Xiaodong, have you slept?"

Liu Xiaodong yawned: "Alas, I accidentally fell asleep!" ”

"That's right, I'm going to go to the site again tomorrow!"

"What did you say?" Liu Xiaodong suddenly fell asleep. You know, it takes two days to go back and forth there!

"It's hard to say on the phone, I'll come to you......"

A few minutes later, Guo Yixin knocked on Liu Xiaodong's door. Her long hair was a little messy, and she looked like she had just gotten out of bed.

Before Liu Xiaodong could ask what was going on, Guo Yixin asked, "Will you go with me?" ”

"Hehe, if you really want to go, I'll definitely accompany you! But we've just come back, so why do we have to go again? "Liu Xiaodong really has nothing to do with this female classmate, I don't know what strange thoughts she has.

"We should get that battery back! …… It's the No. 5 battery that Master Wang found, and it's likely that it's also old! Guo Yixin sat on the stool at the window.

"It's possible...... But just to get the battery back! Is it possible that you can't find it? Liu Xiaodong sat on the bed.

"You think, the break of that wire is not neat at all, it doesn't look like it was cut by a sharp blade or something, so could it have been blown up? Could that battery also be related to the explosion? You have to try it and bring it back to the police for identification! ”

"I've thought about this too, but these are only theoretical possibilities......"

"I've come here, and sometimes I think my instincts are terrifying, for example, before this time, I felt that I had to come and see, and you found an important clue! Do you think that works? You call Wang Zhong to me, and I will ask him to come over tomorrow, and the wages for these two days will be counted as my ......."

"I have public funds, how can I use your money!"

Liu Xiaodong feels that women believe in intuition and men believe in logic, both are things arranged by God, and there is no reason to talk about it.

At half past three in the afternoon of the next day, the black free light reappeared at the panda Yadan.

Thankfully, it didn't take much effort for them to find the No. 5 battery. Liu Xiaodong took the battery and carefully observed it for a long time, but found no traces of aging.

"If you cut open this battery, you might be able to find out if it's an old battery by inspecting the contents of it!" Guo Ying took the battery and stared, "If it's a new battery, then this is another clue." ”

Liu Xiaodong smiled: "Makes sense! He had only just thought of it.

Liu Xiaodong asked Wang Zhong to drive around the neighborhood to take a look at the surrounding environment.

Although Wang Zhong didn't know what Liu Xiaodong was going to see, he felt that this move would definitely be useful. Since yesterday, he has begun to admire Liu Xiaodong's observation.

They began to observe in circles from the south, and Liu Xiaodong found that this area of several kilometers is basically flat terrain, except for about two kilometers west of the panda Yadan, there is a depression.

Just as they were about to finish a circle, Guo Yixin suddenly said: "Look over there, is there a car coming!"

Liu Xiaodong fixed his eyes and vaguely saw a red car in the distance.

"Who is this? Isn't the police coming! Guo Yixin rolled down the window and put her hands on the pergola to look into the distance.

"Brother Wang, stop the car!" Liu Xiaodong shouted.

Wang Zhong paused abruptly and asked, "What's the problem?"

Liu Xiaodong looked around: "Let's just stay here and see what this car wants to do?" ”

Wang Zhong looked at Liu Xiaodong suspiciously: "What do you mean...... Could they be bad guys? ”

"I don't know, let's see!"

"I don't think the most rampant murderer will go to the same place to commit another crime, right? So short a time. Wang Zhong said.

Liu Xiaodong thought for a while: "I can't say it, it's just that when the situation is unclear, it is always good to be in the dark!" ”

The atmosphere was a little tense all of a sudden, the three of them didn't speak again, three pairs of eyes were staring at the red car, it was driving this way, getting closer and closer, it could be seen that it was an off-road vehicle!

"Did you bring your shock flashlight?" Wang Zhong asked Liu Xiaodong.

Liu Xiaodong nodded, and then shook his head again: "No, and it doesn't have an electric shock......

"The back box had what we needed!" Before the words fell, Wang Zhong got out of the car, took out something from the trunk and quickly got into the car. He had a shovel in his hand.

"Ordnance Shovel! …… This thing can dig holes when the wheels are trapped, and you can defend yourself when it is critical. Wang Zhong patted the shovel and said.

"The car seems to have stopped!" Guo Yixin whispered.

Sure enough, the red SUV was parked not far away, and if they went any further, they could all see its license plate.

There were two people in the car, what seemed to be two men, who also seemed to be looking at them. More than ten seconds later, the red SUV suddenly made a sharp turn to the right and drove away.

Liu Xiaodong said decisively to Wang Zhong: "Hurry up and catch up and see their license plates clearly!" ”

Wang Zhong kicked the accelerator and the car rushed out.

"Brother Wang, hurry up!" Liu Xiaodong stared at the car without blinking.

The red buggy also began to accelerate, and after a while, only a red dot remained in the desert background.

"Brother Xiaodong, no! That car has more horsepower than us, and it can't catch up! Wang Zhong let go of the accelerator.

"Forget it......" Liu Xiaodong shook his head.

Wang Zhong slowly stopped the car: "Brother, I also think there is something wrong with this car!" ”

Guo Yixin, who was in the back seat, leaned forward and asked Liu Xiaodong: "What do you think is wrong with this car?" ”
