Chapter 1086 Search

They have worked in their respective positions for half their lives and naturally know that this is a heavy responsibility.

What is at stake is the lives and property and peaceful life of millions of people!

Since taking office, Zheng Hexu and Qiao Xuemin have never experienced such a major event.

Although the fugitives escaped due to a disaster caused by force majeure, it was undoubtedly a serious negligence on their part and someone must be held accountable for this accident.

So they acted quickly and deployed police forces urgently.

Under their command, teams of well-trained and well-equipped elite police officers moved quickly through the streets and alleys of the Jinling base like arrows from a bow.

Zheng Hexu and Qiao Xuemin also took part in the investigation personally, with their sharp eyes not missing any possible clues.

Even a tiny trace on the ground or a suspicious stain on the wall can arouse their high alert.

Under the leadership of Qiao Xuemin, the investigators were fully focused, like experienced hunters, carefully analyzing the clues left by the fugitive.

Qiao Xuemin carefully observed and thought about the shape and depth of each footprint, the placement and absence of each object, because he knew very well that these could be the key to solving the mystery.

Zheng Hexu organized and coordinated the forces of all parties, continuously optimizing the search plan, trying to find out the fugitive's escape route and possible hiding place.

Here is the edited version for you:

However, time passed by like a white horse, and the four fugitives still seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth, with no news of them.

Therefore, every quiet arrival of darkness was like a silent nightmare that shrouded the Jinling base.

People's hearts will suddenly tighten, as if being grabbed by an invisible and cold big hand, almost suffocating them.

Every household closed their doors and windows early, before night fell, so tightly that it seemed as if they wanted to completely isolate themselves from the outside world.

Every window was closed tightly, leaving no gap at all, for fear that the tiny gap would become a channel for the devil to quietly invade.

Originally, one could occasionally hear children laughing and vendors hawking their wares on the streets, but now, it is deserted.

The bit of bustle and noise that had finally arrived a few days ago also disappeared without a trace, leaving only deathly silence.

Even in broad daylight with bright sunshine, some people with weak physical strength looked terrified when walking on the road.

Their eyes were full of vigilance, as if danger was lurking in every inch of the air around them.

They couldn't help but look around frequently, their heads turning as fast as rattles, not missing any corner where there might be a threat.

Every stranger passing by, even an unintentional eye contact, may stir up huge waves in their hearts, triggering endless suspicion and panic.

The pedestrians walked hurriedly, like leaves in the wind, flustered and hurried.

Their hearts were filled with extreme fear of unknown dangers, and the vicious faces of the fugitives kept appearing in their minds.

I was afraid that at some unexpected moment, the crazy fugitive would suddenly jump out like a ghost from some dark and unknown corner.

Maybe it's an abandoned house on the street, a deep alley, or even a seemingly quiet corner.

Once it happens, it will be a catastrophic disaster. Life, property, and even everything precious may disappear in an instant.

The lights at night seemed to become dimmer, and the already weak light seemed even paler and weaker under the influence of fear.

The lights flickered in the darkness, like the last struggle of a dying person, and could be ruthlessly swallowed up by the endless darkness at any time.

Under every street light, those shadows seem to hide unknown fears, which makes people terrified.

As the person in charge of handling incidents related to the [Destruction] force, Lu Jingcheng also understood the importance of this incident.

He has been busy these days.

He had just retired from the heavy work of rebuilding his home, and before he had time to catch his breath, he led the members of the Fire Team and immediately plunged into the difficult task of searching for the fugitive.

Every day before dawn, Lu Jingcheng would gather his team members and carefully deploy the search plan for the day.

They shuttled through every corner of the Jinling base, not missing any abandoned houses or remote corners where fugitives might be hiding.

Lu Jingcheng personally led the team to conduct a carpet search of some suspicious hiding places. Even if it was a dark and damp basement, or a warehouse full of debris, they had to check them one by one.

During the day, they endured the scorching sun, their clothes soaked with sweat, but they did not bother to wipe them off, just to not miss any clues.

At night, they continued to grope in the dark with the help of weak lights.

They visited each resident, asking them carefully whether they had seen anyone suspicious.

Lu Jingcheng's sharp eyes were always observing the expressions and reactions of the people around him, trying to capture useful information from them.

The members of the Fiery Team did not dare to slack off at all and carefully recorded every detail.

However, after many days of efforts, they did not find any valuable clues about these fugitives, as if these fugitives had really disappeared from the Jinling base out of thin air.

To be honest, Lu Jingcheng was not surprised by this result.

After all, the scale of the Jinling base is equivalent to that of a small county town, with a population of over 100,000.

Nowadays, it is different from the past. Cameras are installed everywhere, providing monitoring without blind spots.

Searching for fugitives at this time is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and is fraught with difficulties.

Moreover, these fugitives not only possess extraordinary strength, but also have a strong anti-detection awareness.

Since they are hiding, they will act with extreme caution to avoid all possible tracking.

In this case, it would undoubtedly be extremely difficult to find them.

Unless these criminals accidentally reveal their identities at some inadvertent moment, there is little hope of catching them with the existing clues and means.

However, how could this difficulty easily defeat the Fire Team?

They have gone through countless hardships and obstacles and never given up easily.

They are patient enough to wait for their prey to show its weakness.

They are even more determined and will not give up until they achieve their goals!

Lu Jingcheng didn't believe that these people could hide forever.

His past experiences told him that as long as he maintained the current intensity of the search and did not miss any details, he would be able to find the fugitives.

With such a firm belief, Lu Jingcheng and his team members conducted strict searches in the Jinling base day after day.

In this way, the Jinling base, shrouded in this shadow, finally ushered in the arrival of eternal night.
