On the phone, Li Jing said firmly,
I think this is worth following up on. Our people learned that Yuan Juncheng had a close relationship with Tian Zheng when he was in Yuning, and even lived in his home at several points in time. There were also rumors among his relatives that his grandfather used to have an eminent position. It was said that he was a senior officer of the general office of the Japanese Kwantung Army. At the time of the joint investigation in the northeast, Tian Zheng’s grandfather and father were put into prison because they were suspected of being spies, but were later released because there was no evidence.


Oh?
Zhao Yu slowed down the car and frowned.
Tell me about the missing sons. Why are they missing?


Tian Zheng had two sons,
Li Jing replied.
One is Tian Shengli and the other is Tian Shengguo. They were reported missing half a year ago. The police have placed a case on file for investigation, but they haven’t found them yet.


Half a year ago? Isn’t that the time when the first expert was killed?
Zhao Yu asked, shocked.

If one son was missing, we could maybe consider it as an accident. But both of them are missing,
Li Jing said.
This is not a matter of coincidence. So, we need to follow up on it.


Yes.
Zhao Yu nodded.
So, do you want me to go to Yuning?
During the conversation, Cui Lizhu extended five fingers to Zhao Yu, which meant that they were 50 kilometers away from Yuning.

No,
Li Jing suddenly said.
Actually, I’m calling you because we have found traces of the two sons. They are in Linshe now.


Zhao Yu was surprised.
You are saying that you’ve found them?
he asked.

Yes,
she replied.
I am going to send what we’ve found to your cell phone. Someone transferred around 8000 yuan from Tian Shengli’s bank card.


What? Bank card? 8000 yuan?
Zhao Yu frowned, suddenly feeling a little confused.

The money was transferred from the Daqingzhuang hardware store in Linshe 20 minutes ago. The video surveillance in the hardware store is not connected to the Internet, but we caught a blue truck on nearby cameras,
she explained. Zhao Yu’s cell phone rang. Li Jing had sent him a video. In order to watch the video clearly, Zhao Yu parked the car on the side of the road.

It shows that there are two men in the truck,
Li Jing said.
Their appearance is very similar to Tian Shengli and Tian Shengguo. Zhao Yu, we have sent our people to check this out. You are now the closest to that hardware store. So…


I understand. I’m heading to the store now. Can you track down the car?
Zhao Yu said seriously.

No problem,
Li Jing said.
The suspects came out of the hardware store and went west along the provincial highway. We are applying for the camera footage from each intersection and will provide you with a real-time location of the truck later. Be careful. Xiao Hang and I are on our way.
After that, Li Jing hung up.

If the two brothers are really related to our case, why would Li Jing share this information with us?
Cui Lizhu asked doubtfully.
Boss, you must be careful. This is not like that crazy woman.
What Cui Lizhu said was exactly the reason for Zhao Yu’s confusion. He couldn’t believe that Li Jing was the first to inform him of such an important clue.

Cui Lizhu looked at the Jeep following closely behind them and said,
Their people are with us. Why did she call you for that? I don’t believe that she really wants to help us. Although you shared the investigation papers with her, I don’t think that woman would be so kind as to repay you.

Zhao Yu restarted the car.
Maybe she has to?


What do you mean?
Cui Lizhu didn’t understand.

She has only one team of her men here, and they are tasked with keeping a close eye on us. If they go and chase the suspects, they can’t protect us. So, Li Jing wants us to go after the suspects so that her people can go with us.

Cui Lizhu still had doubts.
Boss, what’s the saying? Refrain from hurting others, yet guard against those trying to hurt you? Be quick when you find the suspects later. Don’t let the Secret Service take the credit for your hard work.


Whoever wants the credit can take it.
Zhao Yu’s mind felt tangled now. He felt that something was not right. However, the suspects were not caught yet, so he could not tell what was wrong exactly.
Cui Lizhu looked out of the window.
It’s not even five. Why is it so dark right now?


It’s not dark. It’s cloudy.
Zhao Yu also looked out of the window and said,
it’s going to rain.


Interesting! It rained a lot along our way.
Cui Lizhu was talking to herself. Zhao Yu’s cell phone rang again. He took it and saw a real-time location that Li Jing had sent him. He immediately clicked the location to compare it with his own. Unexpectedly, Cui Lizhu suddenly hit Zhao Yu’s seat and yelled,
Boss, boss, look! That car!

What? Zhao Yu looked up quickly and saw a car coming. It was a blue truck. He was shocked. He didn’t see many blue trucks in this county. Zhao Yu quickly slowed down and stared at the truck. When it passed by, he saw that there were two men sitting in the front. Both of them were wearing hats, almost the same as in the video sent by Li Jing.

Zhao J239B7,
Cui Lizhu said, loudly reading the license plate number to Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu quickly checked the video. It was the same license plate number as in the video. That’s the car. It’s them. For a moment, Zhao Yu felt so excited that he thought his blood was boiling. He immediately turned around at an intersection and chased the blue truck. After Zhao Yu turned around, the Jeep behind him took a sharp turn and continued to follow Zhao Yu’s car. It started to rain lightly.
Cui Lizhu couldn’t believe that the blue car appeared right after they received the information from Li Jing.
I can’t believe that we are so lucky. Boss, stop the jeep behind you. Don’t let them steal your credit,
she said to Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu touched his gun, then stepped on the accelerator to speed up.
Of course. You don’t need to remind me of this.
As the rain grew intense, Zhao Yu flipped his wipers to the fastest mode to sweep all of the rain off the window. The sky was gloomy. The dark sky was like a huge black pot covering the earth. He felt like he was unable to breathe and felt quite depressed.
The truck in front of Zhao Yu didn’t seem to notice that someone was on their trail. It kept a slow speed. After a minute, Zhao Yu caught up with the people in the truck and stopped them. Unexpectedly, at that moment, Zhao Yu’s cell phone rang again. Although it was an unknown number, Zhao Yu knew who was calling.

Zhao Yu, slow down. You keep up with them. Don’t confront them now,
Li Jing said seriously.

Oh?
Zhao Yu was a little surprised.
Why?
he asked.

Why?
Li Jing said seriously.
We found their shopping list in the hardware store. They bought an internal combustion cleaver, two diamond air picks, and several electric hammers, all of which are used to dig rocks. You tell me what they are going to do.

Hearing this, Zhao Yu was really excited. They are going to dig for the treasure?
