After summoning Shi Baocun and several others, Lin Mo introduced the mission situation, and Liu Zhenshan assigned tasks to everyone.
The tracking and surveillance work was still left to Zheng Junshan and his people, while Lin Mo took Shi Baocun to investigate the situation, and Liu Zhenshan stayed in the small courtyard to be responsible for dispatching and other tasks.
As for Yang Haicheng, although they did not harm him along the way, they also knew that he was indeed exhausted, so after returning, they rushed him to his room to rest.
"I'll leave the preliminary work to you this time. I'll take care of your home and handle other chores so that you won't have any worries."
"Yes..." Lin Mo and others responded, and Liu Zhenshan said a few more words before leaving space for Lin Mo and others.
"Old Lin, this information is a bit lacking? Where do you think it is better to start?"
"Well..." Lin Mo pondered for a while and replied: "Let's follow up and investigate first! Try to find out as many things as possible before talking about it.
There are two things that are more important now. One is what they are looking for, and the other is whether these people have any accomplices. Let us both take the same responsibility!"
"Okay..." Zheng Junshan nodded and replied: "I am responsible for finding accomplices. I think these people must have accomplices.
Searching warehouse after warehouse like this is the stupidest way. The other party should have other accomplices who will search through other methods. I will find these people as soon as possible.
But don’t we need to investigate the reason why those people appeared near Commander Liao’s house?”
Lin Mo heard this and explained: "There are too many possibilities for this matter, it may be an accident, it may be a coincidence, of course, the most likely thing is what we thought.
Since we already know it in our minds, there is no need to verify it. Besides, the other party's actions at this time should have little to do with the previous incident. It is difficult to find out the incident at this time.
So what we have to do is to find out what the other party is doing based on their current actions. As for that issue, there is a high probability that we will not have a chance to find out until the arrest is over."
"I understand..." Zheng Junshan nodded, discussed with Lin Mo for a while, and then left.
"Captain Lin, where should we start investigating now?"
After hearing Shi Baocun's words, Lin Mo thought about it in his mind and said: "The troops are divided into two groups. You can take the photos of those people and go to the station to interrogate them to see if you have seen them.
I went to the dock and asked the police to find out the situation. I also asked the owner of the boat to see if I could get any information.
Moreover, after the other party appears around Master Liao's house, there will be a period of time until we find traces of the other party again. Check their previous traces, maybe we can find something. After you check the station, come over and check together."
"Captain Lin, do you think these people have just arrived in Nanjing?"
"Maybe! I'm not sure either. I'll check first and then tell you!"
"Okay..." Shi Baocun responded, followed Lin Mo out of the door, ordered everyone, and quietly left here.
Shi Baocun did not separate from Lin Mo, but followed Lin Mo to find a photo studio. As soon as they entered the door, they were welcomed into a separate room.
Lin Mo took out an envelope, poured out a thick stack of photos, and handed it to the shop owner of the photo studio, who was also a young man in his twenties.
"Shopkeeper, I want five copies. Do you know how to make them?"
The shopkeeper took the photo, nodded, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, sir, I've done things for my Uncle Zhang several times. I know the rules. I won't keep it, won't spread it, and the negatives will be destroyed in front of you."
"That's good, you can help me wash it out as quickly as possible."
"Okay..." the shopkeeper responded, then took the photo and went out.
This young shopkeeper is Zhang Hongxin's distant nephew. Because it is not convenient for Lin Mo and others now to ask the department to help clean the photos, he introduced this place to Lin Mo and others.
After waiting for more than an hour, the shopkeeper came back with seven envelopes and said: "Five are new films, one is the original film, and one is the film. Should the film be destroyed or taken away?
Keep the film, and if you need to develop the same photos next time, it will be much faster and cheaper.”
"Keep it!" Lin Mo took the envelope of the photo and gave three copies to Shi Baocun, then took the envelope of the film and put it away.
"Write down the account first. I may need to trouble you more during this period. I will settle it with you when the matter is completed."
"Okay..." The shopkeeper nodded and said, "Uncle Zhang has given instructions. If you need any, just bring photos and film. I won't ask anything, and the things will not pass through other people's hands. I will do it myself. Don't worry.
That’s fine.”
Lin Mo nodded, took Shi Baocun out of the door, and asked: "Old Shi, this man looks very mature and steady, have you ever dealt with him before?"
"I have been beaten twice. I was not so reliable before. Team Leader Zhang has trained me a few times and my temper has improved a lot. There is no problem. I can trust it."
Hearing what Shi Baocun said, Lin Mo felt relieved. The two walked along the street for a while, then separated and went to their own sides. There was already a car waiting for them.
Lin Mo opened the door and got into the car. There were two people sitting in the car, one was He Changwen who was in charge of driving, and the other was Wang Yinglong.
"Changwen, this car just arrived, how is it? Does it drive smoothly?"
He Changwen heard this, turned around, and replied: "Captain Lin, I'm still a little unfamiliar, but there is no problem in driving. I will get familiar with it as soon as possible."
"Hmm..." Lin Mo nodded, looked at Wang Yinglong on the side, and asked: "Yinglong, who are you planning to follow from Captain and Lao Zheng?"
Wang Yinglong listened and replied: "Captain Lin, Captain Liu San and Xiao Rui have gone on a mission. I have arranged for Dafu to take over, and Captain Zheng has arranged for Wang Youlong to follow."
"Well...that's good. I will arrange it this way in the future until the matter is over."
"Understood..." Wang Yinglong nodded, and the car drove out. Although He Changwen was a little unfamiliar with driving, fortunately, he was safe and there was no major problem.
…………
On the other side, Lin Wenhua also found a courtyard as a base, but it was not a courtyard of a Chinese-style building, but three three-story row buildings, a Z-shaped building, but the side facing the street was the gate.
This place does not belong to Chu Li, Lin Wenhua or the Lin family, but is in the hands of the police station. It was originally intended to be used as a police station, but it was not used because there were better options nearby.
It was previously contracted out by the police station as a company's location. However, the company's business has been booming recently and the space was not large enough, so it moved to a larger place.
There was no need to rent the police station, and there was a group of people watching here. However, because Lin Wenhua took stock of the safe houses he and the department had, and there was no place suitable for his mission, so he intercepted Hu from the police station midway.
.
In addition, there is no shortage of money on hand, and this police station also got a lot of benefits from the last operation. It is eager to cooperate with the Military Intelligence Office again this time. The two sides hit it off and successfully won.
After moving here, Lin Wenhua also hung a company sign at the door, and all the team members moved into a few buildings, hunkered down, and closely monitored the surrounding area.
The style of several buildings is that of a tube building, with a corridor in the middle and rooms on both sides. All team members live in the inner rooms, and the outer rooms are all arranged as observation points and shooting points, and the windows are all sealed with burlap.
It would be difficult for outsiders to sneak in through these windows, because the company that worked here before installed iron mesh on the windows on the first and second floors, with steel bars as thick as a little finger.
On the third floor, the linen cloth in the corner of the window was lifted, and a sniper rifle was placed. A man was looking out of the window through a long scope, and he was making some strange gestures with his hand.
He is Zhao Dagang, who is already twenty-four or five years old. He is the oldest among those left by Lin Mo. He is married and has children.
He had gone to elementary school, two years older than Wang Shoufei, and had excellent grades. However, an accident happened at home when he graduated from elementary school, so he had no choice but to drop out of school to support his family. Over the years, his hunting skills were no worse than those of Wang Shoufei and others.
Because he had a lot of hardships since childhood, he was mature and stable, and his performance in training was very good, so he was assigned to Lin Wenhua by Lin Mo to be responsible for Lin Wenhua's safety.
Zhao Dagang put away his gun, stood up and left the room, knocking on Lin Wenhua's office door.
"Come in..." Lin Wenhua's voice came from the room, and Zhao Dagang opened the door and walked in.
"Dagang, what's wrong? Did you discover something else?" The sniper who noticed the abnormality before was Zhao Dagang.
"Report to the team leader, people outside have sent news, and the eldest young master has sent five more people."
"Have you sent someone again?" Lin Wenhua asked in a strange tone, mixed with confusion and relief.
"That's not right! The phone is connected to mine, and yours is not connected either. The message is not sent through the phone. Dagang, are there any other ways for you to send messages to each other?"
"Yes..." Zhao Dagang nodded and explained: "When we used to hunt, we would use gestures and whistles to convey messages. After training, the young master and Master Liao integrated and developed two sets of gestures and whistles to convey messages.
.
Based on our previous gestures and enriched with some foreign gestures, some relatively simple gestures can be conveyed for silent communication at close range or in aiming equipment.
Whistling uses the mouth or some tools to convey messages with different sounds, different sound lengths, and Morse coding. The message can be transmitted relatively complexly, but it is relatively difficult to master, and it is easy to be exposed or detected by opponents.
The method of transmitting the message just now is gestures. Although the distance is not close, we can still convey simple messages through the sight, so the message transmitted is very simple."
"You have many methods, but they do have certain uses..." Lin Wenhua praised a few words and said: "Since we are here, let's stay!
But don’t let them in, let them find a place to stay around, hide in the dark for the time being, and be on guard quietly!”
"Yes..." Zhao Dagang responded, then retreated, returned to the room where he was just now, lifted a corner of the linen cloth, carried the sniper rifle, and continued to make gestures.
After Zhao Dagang left, Lin Wenhua called Li Dingqiao and asked him to inform the other team members of the news to avoid misunderstandings.
…………
After Lin Mo got on the car, the car drove directly outside a restaurant outside Xiaguan. Several people got out of the car and booked a private room, then quietly waited for Cheng Dalin to come over.
When nothing happened, Lin Mo took out the photo and looked at it carefully to see if he could see any clues from it.
After nearly half an hour, Cheng Dalin hurried over.
"Why did it take so long? Did something happen or an accident happen?"
When Cheng Dalin heard this, he quickly explained: "Sir Lin, nothing happened. I went out to investigate the situation and was delayed for a while."
"Oh? Did you find anything?"
Cheng Dalin felt a little embarrassed after hearing this, but he still replied honestly: "I have found out some of the situation, but I don't know if it will be useful."
After saying that, Cheng Dalin took out a paper bag, handed it to Lin Mo, and explained: "Sir Lin, we think the other party may have found things elsewhere before, so I took it upon myself to take the initiative and quietly take people to check elsewhere.
Unexpectedly, we actually found something. We found out that the other party was probably searching from the docks and warehouses in the south of the city to the north. In it was the situation we asked about and the general route map.
Because the information has not been compiled just now, I thought I would hand it over to Chief Lin once it was finished, which delayed Chief Lin’s time. Please forgive me."
"Don't be so nervous. You are concentrating on doing things for us. This saves us a lot of time. How can I blame you? I am very tolerant of people who are concentrating on doing things for us."
"Yes, yes..." Even though Lin Mo said so, Cheng Dalin still acted cautiously.
"Okay, okay...Lin Wenhua is my brother, and we are all our own, understand? There is no need to act like this, just relax and sit down quickly!"
After hearing Lin Mo's words, Cheng Dalin finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat down.
"By the way, have you eaten?" Lin Mo opened the paper bag, suddenly thought of this, and asked casually.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Eat, eat... gurgling..." Before Cheng Dalin could finish his words, his stomach growled loudly, making Cheng Dalin look embarrassed.
Lin Mo smiled and shook his head, and said to He Changwen who was sitting next to him looking at the photo: "Changwen, go down and order! Let them come in quickly."
"Okay..." After Lin Mo finished speaking, He Changwen nodded, put down the photo, stood up and went out.
Lin Mo pushed the tea snacks in front of him to Cheng Dalin and said: "Let's use some tea snacks to cushion your stomach first! We are all our own people, and I am not that difficult to get along with. You don't need to tolerate me, and you won't eat it. Are you?
no?
By the way...Is there anyone else coming with you? They probably haven't eaten yet! Call them up too!"
"Isn't this... bad? Just let him eat down there..." Cheng Dalin hesitated, obviously still worried.
"Go if I tell you to, don't babble like a girl."
"Yes, yes..." Seeing that Lin Mo was a little impatient, Cheng Dalin hurriedly nodded and went downstairs. After a while, he brought someone back with him and He Changwen.
After waiting for about ten minutes, the food was served by the waiter. However, Cheng Dalin did not let the waiter in. Instead, he took the food himself and asked the waiter to wait at the door.
Lin Mo, who looked at the investigation records, nodded and was very satisfied with Cheng Dalin's performance.
After putting down the notes, Lin Mo also started eating together. Cheng Dalin still acted a little reserved, so he just immersed himself in eating and didn't pick up much food.
On the contrary, the little policeman who came later was able to let go, flying the tip of his chopsticks, wandering among the dishes, piling the bowls high, and even picked up a pile of vegetables for Cheng Dalin.
Cheng Dalin was a little embarrassed at first and stopped the little policeman, but seeing that Lin Mo and others didn't care on their faces, he slowly let go.
