Chapter 406: You can still intercept him
So, he took a deep breath, stiffened his scalp, and decided to give an answer that did not contradict the facts, but also minimized the negative impact: "Originally, our operation was carried out by four people, including an armed police comrade carrying an automatic rifle. ”
His words were calm and powerful, trying to distract the other person from it.
"It's just ......" he deliberately paused here, as if he was considering how to phrase it, while Liu Yutian impatiently asked, "Just what?" Say it! ”
Zhou Yunzhen hesitated slightly, the expression on his face changed several times in an instant, and the wisdom and experience in his heart collided with sparks at this moment.
He had an idea and quickly came up with a logical and acceptable reason: "It's just that in the middle of the trip, the assistant instructor who was in charge of the command suddenly fell ill and the pain was unbearable, and we had to stop the emergency to let him rest. ”
"Due to the extremely fast speed of the vehicle, his condition became more and more serious, and he vomited incessantly, and he could not continue to travel with him."
"Out of concern for his health and safety, and to ensure that the mission can be carried out smoothly, I had to arrange for the driver and the armed police comrade to stay behind to take care of him."
"And myself, I drove after the fleeing vehicle that was picking up the criminals."
Liu Yutian looked anxious, his eyebrows were tightly locked, and he asked Zhou Yunzhen in a hurried tone: "Then why don't you bring the guns of the armed police force?" ”
"You know, their automatic rifles are powerful, accurate and efficient, and they are undoubtedly the best choice for tracking down fugitives in the dark jungle."
After Zhou Yunzhen heard this, an embarrassed smile appeared on his face, and his eyes flashed with a hint of helplessness, "Alas, Team Liu, I thought about it like this at the time, in this dark night, deep in the mountains and old forests, I was afraid of being attacked by those unpredictable and erratic beasts. ”
"The people they left behind can at least deal with the dangers that may come suddenly if they have an automatic rifle in hand and can provide enough firepower for self-defense."
"After all, this is the domain of nature, and no one knows what will happen in the next moment."
Liu Yutian did not stop because of this, he looked directly at Zhou Yunzhen with sharp eyes, and asked again: "Then, why didn't you carry the pistol of the deputy instructor?" ”
"It's a small and portable pistol, so it can be very useful in an emergency."
Zhou Yunzhen seemed a little speechless, he hesitated for a moment, and responded with an embarrassed face: "The situation at that time was extremely urgent and urgent. ”
"I had to chase after me on horseback, and in a panic, I was negligent for a moment, and I forgot about it for a while. I forgot about the pistol. ”
Liu Yutian was obviously skeptical about this answer, he looked directly at Zhou Yunzhen, and asked rhetorically: "You even remembered the relatively bulky automatic rifle just now, how could you forget the more portable pistol?" ”
Seeing this, Zhou Yunzhen's face changed slightly, and he took a deep breath, his solemn expression was like a dark cloudy sky.
He said slowly: "I may have been overly nervous and anxious, and at that moment, I felt as if I had been detached from all perception by an invisible force, and my brain seemed to suddenly fall into a chaotic storm, and I lost consciousness of everything around me in an instant. ”
"It was as if my memory had been short-circuited, causing me to ignore the presence of the pistol in my confusion."
"Losing consciousness in an instant" does sound far-fetched, after all, for ordinary people, such an experience is quite rare, and it is difficult to understand and accept it with conventional logic.
It can be a true portrayal of an unexpected situation, or it can be a clever excuse.
The balance in Liu Yutian's heart swayed between belief and doubt, which made Liu Yutian unable to find an exact rebuttal for a while, and fell into deep thought, and finally could only swallow the doubts that came to his mouth temporarily.
Zhou Yunzhen took a deep breath and looked at Liu Yutian with firm eyes, his words were full of urgency and undoubted determination: "You should have completely grasped the current situation, right?" ”
"Our immediate priority is to pursue that cunning fugitive swiftly and with precision."
Liu Yutian was expressionless, his eyes were as cold as ice, and he asked rhetorically: "Where is the fugitive you said you are now?" Where is it? ”
Zhou Yunzhen couldn't help but aggravate his anxiety, and fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, "Didn't I say it just now?" He's escaped. ”
"Every minute counts at the moment, and we're doing everything we can, racing against the clock, and maybe stopping him."
At this time, Zhao Bensong also joined the conversation, his face was no less anxious than Zhou Yunzhen, his eyebrows were tightly locked, and his eyes were burning with fighting spirit: "What are you hesitating about!" Without further ado, we must act now and launch the pursuit! ”
He suddenly seemed to remember some key information, and slapped his thigh, his tone was quick and affirmative, "I remember, when we entered this mountainous area, there was a Mercedes-Benz SUV that rushed past us, and the abnormal behavior of that car was probably related to the fugitives. ”
Liu Yutian stared at Zhou Yunzhen with blazing eyes, and his tone was mixed with a trace of undoubted seriousness and anxiety.
He frowned and asked, "Zhou Yunzhen, at the moment when you hit that off-road vehicle without hesitation, do you really have a chance to see the facial features of everyone in the car clearly in that kind of black light blind and extremely poor vision?" ”
"I mean, the fugitive we've been tracking for a long time, is he among them?"
Zhou Yunzhen's face was slightly embarrassed when he heard this, he shook his head slightly, and responded in a deep voice: "In the dark night, coupled with the chaos when the impact occurred, I really failed to capture the specific appearance of the people in the car. ”
"I aimed at the rear of their vehicle and struck it with the intention of temporarily incapacitating it."
"However, after a brief stall, the black Mercedes SUV quickly regained power, like a frightened fish that slipped through the net, and disappeared into the night at an eye-popping speed."
Liu Yutian's face became more and more grim after hearing this, and his eyebrows showed deep thought and dissatisfaction, and he asked Zhou Yunzhen word by word: "You mean to say that at such a critical moment, you didn't even see the appearance of the people in the car, so what clues did you base on to be so sure that this car was in response to the leopard print?" ”
"How can you be sure that the cunning fugitive who is as cunning as a fox must be in this speeding off-road vehicle?"
"Although your actions are decisive and courageous, in the absence of such key information, we cannot just speculate that the car is the vehicle that received the leopard print, let alone the fugitive himself must be in the car."
"What we need is conclusive evidence and rigorous logical reasoning, not blind speculation and assumptions."
