I Just Want To Retire Quietly

Chapter 98: Confrontation (I)

Views:

The opponent was too cautious and the investigation got stuck again here.

The atmosphere in the special power team was very depressing. They had special powers and had been trained by the country for so many years, but they could do nothing and had to watch two of their comrades lose their lives.

The cause of death could not be determined, and their bodies were frozen and could not be buried. Because the cause of death was unknown, Guo Ji'an was not even able to inform their families of the deaths of the two fighters.

Minister Yu was very annoyed and had been working non-stop for two days. Xu Mingyu almost lived in the Public Security Bureau of City B, keeping an eye on the progress of the case at all times.

At this moment, everyone is working hard, but the special ability team can only stay in the base and can't do anything.

After walking out of the freezer, Tan Yan suddenly said, "I want to go out for a walk."

Xu Mingyu and Minister Yu were not there. The person in charge of the superpower team was a young soldier named Gu Ming, who was also an insider. He immediately objected, "No, Minister Yu said that if the other party's goal is really superpowers, you may be attacked."

Hearing his words, Tan Yan actually smiled: "That's just right."

"Calm down," Gu Ming said, "You are very important to the country, nothing can happen to you!"

"No," Tan Yan said seriously, "I am not such an important person now. My successor has appeared. I should be able to act freely, right?"

Liang Xian grabbed Tan Yan's arm: "Don't be impulsive."

"I'm not impulsive," Tan Yan looked into Liang Xian's eyes, "Two days have passed, and there has been no news from the three psychics and Zhang Hua. In another 20 hours, the golden 72 hours for rescue will be over, and we may lose a soldier forever. You always say that I am irreplaceable, so nothing can happen to me. But now that I have you, I am just an ordinary psychic, no different from Zhang Hua."

"We have already lost four psychics and two excellent fighters, and the organization wants to minimize the losses!" Gu Ming was so anxious that he was about to jump up and down.

"Don't be impatient, just listen to me carefully."

Tan Yan looked at the anxious and sad expressions of the superpower team and said, "I didn't just go out and try my luck recklessly, but I thought it over carefully.

These past two days I have been thinking about why six living people disappeared without leaving any trace. Xiao Cui checked all the cameras in the city, but found nothing; Minister Yu commissioned the B City Public Security Bureau to check all taxis, online car-hailing cars and private sports car drivers in B City, and everyone's answer was the same, they had never seen them; Xu Mingyu also investigated all the records of lost cars and major truck drivers, but found nothing. Why do you think this happened? "

If they knew, the superpower team wouldn't be so depressed.

The public security department of City B, the National Security Bureau and the armed police force were all dispatched, but they couldn't find the six people. Why

Logically speaking, this is impossible in modern society. At the very least, the four people who were still alive should have eaten and bought things, so how could there be no trace at all

Although Tan Yan's knowledge of quantum mechanics is average, he has been engaged in criminal investigation for many years and is quite experienced in this area.

"I made many assumptions, such as they escaped from City B, or hid in some hidden place, but none of them were correct, because these two bodies also appeared out of thin air."

Everyone present had studied criminal investigation, and many had interned at the Public Security Bureau. Everyone understood what Tan Yan was saying, but it was impossible that this incident had happened right under everyone's noses.

"Since it cannot be explained by existing knowledge, there is only one answer."

As Tan Yan spoke, he put his hands on his face. Everyone noticed that his appearance was changing little by little. In less than a minute, Tan Yan changed from a young man to a fifty-nine-year-old Tan Yan.

The members of the superpower team had only seen this face in information, and this was the first time they met the elderly Tan Yan face to face.

"If the speculation about reverse time travel is true, then there is a high possibility that they have changed their appearance or simply made themselves invisible," Tan Yan said. "With such an ability, we won't be able to find them."

He placed his hand on Liang Xian's palm, and after releasing it, Tan Yan pressed it on the wall: "You can test this fingerprint, it's not mine, it's Liang Xian's."

"Even fingerprints can be changed..." Gu Ming murmured, "If the other party really has this ability, then we will not be able to find him even if we turn City B upside down."

"So we need bait," Tan Yan pointed at himself, "a bait that can fight with the other party and come back at any time."

He pointed at the deer again, and everyone understood what he meant.

It might be dangerous for Tan Yan to go out, but the danger is actually what they want. They can lure out the enemy, and with Tan Yan's strength, there is no way he can be defeated by one move. Moreover, he has the ability to teleport, so even if there is real danger, he can return to the base immediately.

"I should go." Liang Xian said.

"No," Tan Yan shook his head. "This is very dangerous. This is not an operation that can be used for training. You are the future pillar of the motherland, and as a senior like me, of course I have to pave the way for the younger generation."

"No, you..."

Tan Yan covered Liang Xian's mouth to stop him from speaking.

Liang Xian looked at Tan Yan, his eyes full of worry.

He tried desperately to absorb the crystal cores and increase his strength, but the result was still the same.

"I agree with this plan," Qiao Zhixue, who had run to the freezer at some point, said, "But Tan Yan also needs to take some protective measures. He needs to bring weapons and tracking and monitoring equipment. I will apply to Minister Yu for you."

"Thank you." said Tan Yan.

After listening to Tan Yan's analysis, Minister Yu quickly agreed with his opinion.

In this situation, it is better to take the initiative than to sit and wait for death.

Liang Xian applied to act together with Tan Yan, but was rejected.

Tan Yan was driving an ordinary Volkswagen provided by the organization. The car was specially modified and equipped with enough weapons.

He first drove to the residence of the fire-type superpower, which was where Zhang Hua and the fire-type superpower disappeared at the same time. Zhang Hua was an earth-type superpower, so there would be some clues left behind, but ordinary policemen without superpowers might not find them.

The fire-type mutant was a delivery boy before entering the "void". On the day of traveling through time, he had just quit his job and wanted to go back to his hometown. It's not easy to drift in Beijing, so instead of hanging around here, he might as well go home and find a way out.

This ordinary migrant worker named Zhao Tianming gained superpowers by accident. When he heard that Aunt Yang was given two houses after being hired by the superpower team, he wanted to join the team very much.

But based on his performance in the zombie world, Zhao Tianming is an impulsive, disobedient and quite conceited person. No matter how special his abilities are, the superpower team will not want such a person. What's more, the fire ability is not that special. Zhao Tianming's current level is not even as good as a incendiary bomb.

Zhao Tianming refused to accept the result. After receiving the money from Guo Ji'an (compensation for mental damage in the other world), he used the money to rent a house in the suburbs of City B. He wandered around every day and had the intention of using his superpowers at the slightest disagreement. This gave the tracking team a headache, and finally the members of the interest group who had just awakened their superpowers came to monitor him.

Minister Yu also said that if he showed any signs of using his supernatural powers again, he would be arrested for intentional injury and leaking state secrets.

Before Zhang Hua had the chance to arrest Zhao Tianming legitimately, the two men disappeared.

The neighborhood where Zhao Tianming lived was very messy, and there were no rules for parking. Tan Yan parked the car in a place that would not affect traffic, downstairs from Zhao Tianming's residence.

In order to facilitate tracking, Zhang Hua lived downstairs from Zhao Tianming, so he could hear every sound clearly. The two single apartments have been blocked by the police, but Tan Yan can enter.

He entered Zhang Hua's room. The room was very clean. Years of military management had made Zhang Hua pay great attention to housekeeping. The quilt was folded into squares and neatly placed on the bed. The clean white sheets did not have a single wrinkle.

The investigation report of the Public Security Bureau of City B mentioned that there were no signs of outsiders entering the room, and the footprints on the ground and the fingerprints in the room all pointed to the victim walking out of the room on his own. They turned the house upside down, but found nothing.

Tan Yan walked around the room several times and finally his eyes fell on the wall in front of the door.

After all, it was an old house, and no matter how clean it was, the walls were not white. There were some black handprints on the wall near the door because of constant opening and closing of the door. The police also checked the fingerprints and found that they were left by Zhang Hua himself.

Tan Yan looked at these unclear fingerprints and imagined that Zhang Hua had stood in front of the door and scratched the wall beside the door with his hand.

This child has earth-related abilities...

Tan Yan reached out and lifted the white paint on the outside of the wall.

This is an old house, with a layer of cement on the outside and rows of bricks inside. Tan Yan was quite strong and tore off the outer layer of cement in one go.

There were some indeterminate dents on several bricks under the cement. After looking at them for a while, Tan Yan tore off all the cement on that half of the wall.

I saw someone writing on the bricks with his finger: Help, I can't control myself.

There is also a big arrow on the brick, which seems to point people in the direction.

Tan Yan took out his cell phone, took a photo and sent it to Minister Yu, then walked out of the room and headed in the direction of the arrow.

Zhang Hua struggled desperately in the room, but could not control his hands and feet. He could only use his supernatural powers to leave clues deep in the wall.

A kid who is only a junior in college must feel helpless and scared when encountering such a surreal thing.

As Tan Yan walked, he looked carefully at the nearby walls. At this moment, his consciousness was unprecedentedly strong, and he didn't need to use his eyes to see. His consciousness could scan every corner of the 100-meter radius like a scanner, without any error.

After walking about a thousand meters, Tan Yan found fingerprints on an outer wall that were the same as the ones on Zhang Hua's indoor wall. The fingerprints were very light and faint, as if they were just a touch.

If we don't use professional instruments for comparison, we will not be able to find that the fingerprints here are the same as those on the wall next to the door.

But Tan Yan, whose consciousness was unprecedentedly strong, saw it at a glance.

He used his fingers to peel away the outer layer of white ash and saw another arrow.

Tan Yan parked the car in the community and walked along the arrows. After about an hour, he found a very ordinary billiard hall.

There were still fingerprints on the door of the billiard hall, but this time they were deeper than before. Zhang Hua seemed to have pinched the door frame of the billiard hall with his fingers, so hard that his fingers pressed into it, leaving a small dent.

Ignoring the messages that Minister Yu kept sending him asking him to wait for reinforcements, Tan Yan walked straight into the billiard hall.

The author has something to say: I know it’s very little, but I’m finally not stuck!

I just realized what I was stuck on, I was stuck on the criminal investigation plot!!!

I can’t solve the case, so I definitely can’t write it!

This time, Lao Tan took action himself and finally got over this hurdle_(:3∠)_

There should be no problem updating at 2 p.m. tomorrow, believe me, I love you all (づ ̄3 ̄)づ╭?~
