Kang Enpei's voice in the microphone was high: "Teacher Xing, I only returned to the institute at noon today, I saw the note you wrote, and I will call you immediately, thank you for your support to our work, your friend said that he knows the clues of illegal logging and arson cases, where is this friend now." ”

Xing Yi thought about it, but continued with the original plan, and said, "This friend, his whereabouts are always floating, and I haven't seen him since I came back." ”

"Then you can find a way to help us get in touch, and we'll make an appointment to meet."

"It should be fine, but I'm interested in this case, let me ask first, have you checked, how many trees have been cut down?"

"We've looked at the stumps, and there are probably more than 130 of them."

"How big are those trees?"

"It's not small, the roots are more than twenty centimeters in diameter."

"Then each tree must weigh more than 100 pounds."

"More than that, it should be more than two hundred pounds."

"Can one person carry it?"

"Enough. Surely there is more than one person. ”

"How big is the arson?"

"The whole half of the slope is forty or fifty acres."

"How many ignitions are there?"

"This, this matter has been ignored, thank you for the reminder, go back and check it out."

"How many trees have you lost in sight?"

"There was not a single tree left on the site, and they were all transported away."

"Aren't there any forest guards?"

"Yes, he's on leave."

"Why are you taking a leave of absence?"

"Someone in the family is sick."

"Is the tree farm close to the river?"

"The upper reaches of the Wooden Bow River are nearby. At this point, we also thought that the wood was most likely transported from the water. ”

"If it's carried down the river, there will always be discoveries along the way."

"So far, we haven't heard anything about it."

"Is it okay to think that those trees are hidden in the middle of the road?"

"How to hide? There are so many trees, they stand out from the crowd. ”

"Director Kang, I won't say much, when my friend said this, I also discussed it with him, and I have his views and my views on these questions for your reference."

"Thank you and your friends so much, could you please hurry up and take a moment?"

"I'm afraid I'll have to wait for two or three days, my friend is in business, always running outside, and he doesn't like to bring a mobile phone when he buys it."

"It doesn't matter, I'll just hear from you."

After dinner, I walked around the neighborhood for a while, while continuing to think, perfecting the next step in my mind to connect with Director Kang, and without seeing the so-called friend, I didn't want to make Director Kang suspicious, and smoothly advanced in his hands and successfully cracked.

When it was dark, there was a way, and when I returned to my room, I took out a small notebook and wrote it down.

The little book had a wrinkled corner, so I flattened it to wipe it, and by the way, I took a look at the first thing I remembered, which was the child who was abducted and trafficked.

He exhaled a sigh, he had originally planned, as long as the work was arranged, he would go to Zhumatai Village, and see that the plan was to be adjusted. The child's parents, grandparents, and grandparents were suffering, thinking that the heat was burning down their backs, and decided to leave early the next day.

In the morning, it took three hours to take the farm bus to Niujiaying Township, stayed in the township, ate lunch, took the bouncing car, bumped for two hours, and arrived at Baishiyan Ferry in the lower reaches of the Mugong River at three o'clock in the afternoon.

The river is not wide, only fifty or sixty meters to the eye, but the river is very turbid, the waves are rolling, but the boat boss has his feet open, and stands on the bow like a fork, one on the left and one on the right. The boat does not go straight, but goes diagonally along the current, and the depth of the water can be calculated from the length of the pole, which is more than five meters, and there should be no mud and sand or pebbles under the water. After tens of millions of years of erosion, such a stone is left with the core, which is a strange stone that people worship.

The river is roaring next to the boat, no one can tell what is under the water, the river is deep and weird, the boat overturns, people fall, there is no life, the moment of life, like a drop of water, disappears in an instant.

The boat boss has been on the water all the year round, and has established a deep friendship with the river, the river is very docile at his feet, and when the boat reaches the middle of the river, the boat boss slurps his beak and lets the whistle chase the birds that pass by on the water. It wasn't until the boat docked that the two men boldly stretched their necks to exhale and wash their sweaty arms in the water.

I got off the boat and walked along a tributary for thirty minutes, and I saw the village.

Thirty or forty slate houses, high and low on the edge of the ditch, all the houses are planted with corn, because the land is fertile, the corn seedlings are stout, the leaves are green, and the heads of people are almost high, and there are one or two on the top of the head, and there are young yellow flower spikes.

The sun was skewed and was about to slide down the slope, Xing Yi thought to himself, it seems that he is going to live in the village tonight, so it's okay to stay with the Zhao family for a while, be a psychiatrist, and provide them with good psychological comfort. The slate room is breathable, and when you look up at night, you can see the stars from the gaps, which is also unique.

"Hey! Hold it. A roar shook his mind.

The person who jumped out of the slash raised a scythe in his hand, his eyes staring at Xing Yi.

Xing Yi was taken aback, and if he looked closely, he was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old guy wearing a blue vest with the word youth printed in the middle, it seemed that he was not the kind of gangster who blocked the road and did bad things, but a young man working in the field.

Xing Yi moved the bag from the back to the front, patted the bag, let him hear the sound of paper, indicating that there were no dangerous goods in it, and took the initiative to approach him.

Although the young man was holding his scythe, his body was retreating, and he suddenly turned his head and shouted: "There is a spy on this!" ”

"Agent?"

Xing Yi was taken aback, and subconsciously looked left and right, what was going on? How to speak? Do you think passers-by are spies?

Could it be that something is happening in the village? Xing Yi hurriedly spread his hands, shook his palms towards him and said, "Don't be nervous, I'm from the county, I just came from the river, and I came to your village to find someone." ”

"Looking for someone in our village? All right. ”

Another rough voice sounded, and three people jumped out of the cornfield behind them, all with guys in their hands, either sickles or hoes, and together with the people who shouted just now, they surrounded Xing Yi.

The leader was in his early thirties, tall, but very strong, shirtless, with bulging black and red muscles, taut, and a pair of eyes that were puffing out and staring at him.

This situation came too suddenly, and Xing Yi hadn't experienced it yet. Why is this so? Xing Yi hurriedly took the initiative to explain: "Is it called Zhumatai here?" ”

The strong man said: "What is Niu Tai Ma Tai, let's talk about it first, you are here to spy on intelligence." ”

If you are so nervous about the living people, something must have happened in the village, Xing Yi calmed down, and he must communicate with them slowly to understand what the situation is.

"I don't know what you mean, I'm really here to find someone, I want to find someone named Zhao Fuming, and another person named Zhao Xinzhen, may I ask where they live, please show me the way, okay?"

Several people looked at each other, and then they all looked at the strong man who spoke.

The strong man said categorically: "No, no one is allowed to enter the village." ”

Two people walked towards Xing Yi, raised their hands, and made a gesture to drive him away.
