Chapter 10 On the Road

A disaster occurred at the archaeological site and archaeologists were trapped. After the news program, the TV station also made a special report on the incident, and reporters rushed to the scene to broadcast live.

Emergency rescue has already been launched, but the whereabouts of the missing persons have not yet been found.

Mei Qian even saw an acquaintance in the picture, Captain Yang, who didn't speak very politely.

This news naturally attracted the attention of the entire prison cell, and no one mentioned the topic of kung fu again.

Some people were discussing how to save themselves in the face of such a mountain disaster. One of the roommates used to be a firefighter, which really spread a lot of knowledge, and everyone felt that it benefited a lot.

Then I felt sad because I knew that in the event of a disaster like a mountain collapse, the trapped people would be in danger.

Regardless of whether they are criminals or ordinary people, there are only a few who completely lose their humanity, and everyone still has some sympathy.

Mei Qian was also sighing. He didn't know if this incident had anything to do with the archaeological team, but it was just a sigh. Because even if he accepted the "invitation" from the archaeological team, what a criminal said had little weight. Furthermore, he did

it can not be helped.

However, it seems that some people don't think so.

"Tell me, what kind of on-the-spot identification can be done in a case where the evidence is not enough to determine the case?"

On the third day of the Xinglin Mountain collapse accident, while sitting in the escort car, Mei Qian looked coldly at Zhang Yu across from him: "I have always believed in the fairness of the law, and I also trusted you, but you let me down."

"You are doing something special, and we can't do anything if the higher-ups ask for it." Zhang Yu's face flashed a little unnaturally, and he explained: "This is not a necessary procedure, everything needs evidence. We will not force you when you get there.

, it’s all up to you to make your own decision.” Immediately, he returned to his smiling posture: “Since we are all out, let’s relax!”

Mei Qian looked at the two special police officers with guns guarding the back door, and asked in a low voice: "I said I don't know how to practice Feng Shui anymore, so what's the use of going there?"

"Do you still remember Captain Yang you met before?" Zhang Yu also lowered his voice: "Although he is the deputy captain, he is actually in charge of the entire excavation work. The captain is just in name, but there has been no progress. He later invited

Famous domestic archaeological experts and tomb robbers were brought in, but it had no effect."

Having said this, Zhang Yu paused for a moment and then emphasized his tone: "It is said that pulling you out this time is the result of negotiations between the Xia State Archaeological Bureau and the Police Department." He made a cryptic expression and immediately changed the subject: "I guess.

It’s noon when we arrive at the border of Dongshan. Do you want something to eat? I’ll treat you."

There has been no progress for more than twenty days? Hearing this, Mei Qian suddenly remembered the scenes on the news a few days ago. Different from the high-spirited and arrogant first time, Captain Yang seen on TV was dejected and dejected when questioned by reporters.

, quite lackluster.

[Captain Yang’s background is definitely not simple. Maybe the collapse this time is related to his poor command. This is treating me as the last life-saving straw. 】

Knowing that it was extremely rare for Zhang Yu to tell him so much, he did not dwell on this aspect and instead asked: "When will my case be concluded? If not, you can get me bail pending trial."

"Sorry, I have discipline, but I really can't say that." Zhang Yu shook his head, thought for a while, released Mei Qian's hands on the railing, opened the handcuffs on one side, and handcuffed them to the side of the seat, then handed over a cigarette: "

Don’t worry, we will never wrongly accuse a good person.”

"I won't let a bad guy go." Li Chen, who was playing with the camera at the side, interrupted.

"Well said." Zhang Yu glanced at his apprentice who had been acting as his record-keeper and praised.

"Your police salary is not low, right? Can't you get some good cigarettes to smoke? You're too hot-headed." Mei Qian said with disgust, but stretched out his hand and lit the cigarette with the fire of the other party's lighter.

"You have to save that little money to marry a wife!" Li Chen suddenly muttered again.

Staring at his apprentice, Zhang Yu said angrily: "Unlike a great writer like you, I haven't paid off my mortgage yet, so I have to save some money."

"That's right, the houses in Xiadu are really too expensive." Mei Qian also lamented that not only the house prices were high, but the rents were also high. When he first came here, even with compensation, he had a really hard time.

Now I'm finally getting through it, eh! It would be better if this unfortunate thing didn't happen.

His seat had no armrests, but was very long, like a sofa with the backrest removed. He turned around, put his legs on it, and then leaned against the cold iron railing, which was quite comfortable.

Zhang Yu sighed slightly when he saw him looking at ease.

In fact, by this time, he himself was already skeptical about whether Mei Qian was actually involved in a crime. Judging from the other party's words and deeds when facing the police, it did not look like he had done anything wrong.

The key point of the case lies in the trajectory of Mei Qian's actions four years ago, but the other party has "amnesia" and cannot provide any clues. And the ancient tombs are all located in wild mountains and barren mountains, and it is difficult to find witnesses.

He participated in the investigation of the case from beginning to end. Their task force was busy for more than four months, traveling to more than ten provinces, cities and regions. Working overtime became the norm, but they could not find any tangible evidence of the other party's crime.

However, the public opinion caused by this case is too great, and it is under the supervision of the Ministry. The pressure on their case-handling agencies is also very high, and they cannot give up easily. They can only be cautious and cautious. The final outcome can only depend on the remaining time.

There is no breakthrough.

--------------------------

Modern expressways extend in all directions, making transportation very convenient.

When we arrived at a service area in Dongshan, we were just in time for lunch.

There was a police car and a prison car. A total of nine people sat around a table. Each person had a bowl of braised noodles. In the middle were four side dishes and two large bottles of Coke.

It didn't seem to cost much, but Zhang Yu still asked the boss for the invoice, and he would probably reimburse it when he got home.

Probably feeling embarrassed, he went out and bought two packs of good cigarettes and distributed them in the car.

However, Mei Qian was not in high spirits. He sat back in his seat and smoked in a daze. Others also understood, especially Li Chen, who looked at him with some sympathy.

This high-speed train comes and goes, so there are many people in the service area taking a rest and eating. Although Mei Qian knows that he is very popular now, he really didn't expect to meet "fans" taking pictures while eating.

Sitting back in the car, Mei Qian glanced at the mobile phone screen that Li Chen had specially put in front of her. Not to mention, they had added beauty effects to make her look much more handsome than she actually was. Of course, the background sound was not just the miserable erhu.

alright……

[Pfft! It’s really that Mei Qian. I still have the video of him singing. I didn’t expect to change his hairstyle. 】

[This erhu suits him quite well. I wonder if he picked up soap in prison...]

[It’s over, this is someone who came out to identify the scene, right? Is the ending of his book "Doya" hopeless? 】

[If it is a general tomb robbing, it can last up to ten years, including stealing and selling cultural relics. If the circumstances are serious, it may last forever...]

[Don’t be afraid, at least it’s not the death penalty. There is still hope in this life. 】

Mei Qian: "..."

Thank you very much.

------------------

Not long after the car started again, Mei Qian suddenly found that his popularity began to rise significantly again. No need to think about it, it must be thanks to those fans.

After getting off the expressway, we first walked a section of cement road, and then it was a pure dirt road. It was extremely muddy and bumpy. The car was swaying all over the place and it was naturally much slower. It was in the evening that we finally arrived at our destination - Xinglin Mountain.

Under the illumination of searchlights, the surroundings looked like a large construction site, with troops on guard outside. Archaeologists and search and rescue personnel in rescue suits were busy, coming and going. You could even see the TV station's interview vehicle parked on the mountain road.

"What's the situation?" Zhang Yu grabbed a middle-aged man wearing glasses: "Didn't you say that the rescue work is over and all the missing people have been found?"

"Oh, there was another earthquake this afternoon, and Professor Mao and his daughter from Xiadu disappeared again!"

Zhang Yu let go of the other party, frowned and took out his mobile phone.

"Leader, there was another earthquake in Xinglin Mountain, and people are missing again. I applied to take the suspect back. It's too dangerous here."

"Well, okay, then I'll tell the other party."

After he hung up the phone, he told the person behind him: "Be sure to pay attention to safety later."

After saying this, he thought for a while, squatted down and removed the chain from Mei Qian's feet, took off one of the handcuffs, and handcuffed the other person to himself.

Then he led everyone towards the tent in front.

Sure enough, from a distance, I saw the distressed Captain Yang, who was yelling something to a group of rescue workers. Because the surroundings were so chaotic, I couldn't make out what he was saying.

As soon as the other party waved his hand, everyone ran away.

When he turned around, he happened to see Zhang Yu and Mei Qian. A hint of joy flashed on his face, and he trotted over: "Mr. Mei, I finally waited for you..."

He didn't say anything. Zhang Yu's arm on the side suddenly exerted force, pulling Mei Qian back a step, and went up to him: "I'm sorry, Captain Yang, our police have an obligation to ensure the personal safety of the suspect. It's too dangerous for you here. We

The captain has given us permission to return immediately."

Captain Yang showed a trace of embarrassment on his face: "In this case, I will call again to ask in detail. Can you wait a moment?"

Zhang Yu hesitated for a moment and could only nod.

So, several people stood there, waiting for each other to communicate with their superiors.

"This is really contrived. If Yang hadn't insisted on blasting it, I'm afraid so many things wouldn't have happened."

"If you ask me, this excavation should be stopped. He insists on finding the ancient tomb. How many accidents have there been?"

"Hey, I heard that he has always wanted to take another step forward. How big an achievement is the Tomb of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period? He is willing to give up?"

"It's good this time. Professor Mao is missing. He can't find the ancient tomb anymore. Let's see who can survive."

Listening to the low conversation between two archaeological team members not far away, Mei Qian and Zhang Yu couldn't help but look at each other.

[It seems that the previous guess was correct, I am really Captain Yang’s last life-saving straw...]

Mei Qian was thinking to himself when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a female reporter passing by with a cameraman. He quickly turned his head to the side, not wanting the other party to pay attention to him.

Although it's a bit unkind to say this, once something happened here, his popularity rose. If it appeared in the news, it might even skyrocket even more.

But after what happened in the service area, he had no intention of riding on the popularity anymore. He didn't want to be the target of ridicule on the Internet, even if this kind of thing was unavoidable...
