Chapter 1106 - A Strange Feeling

“I remember…” Zhao Yu was driving carefully while he spoke. “In Yuan Juncheng’s work logs, there was a description of Yishan Fortress. During the period of the Manchukuo government, Yishan Fortress was always regarded as the gateway to the whole Feng Ping area. Yuan Juncheng had once suspected that there were other supporting fortifications on the front of Yishan Fortress. So, he did research in this area but found nothing.”

“Front? But…” Cui Lizhu looked at the map displayed on the phone and said, “we are now at the back of Yishan Fortress, not the front…”

“Yes,” Zhao Yu said. “The back of Yishan Fortress is all cliffs. It was not a strategic area during the war. So, neither Yuan Juncheng’s team nor the other experts had conducted any large-scale searches here. But…”

Cui Lizhu snapped her fingers and said, “But you think that this is a trick of the Japanese. They deliberately built a fortress in a place of no strategic value, which not only achieved unexpected good results in the war but also became an excellent hiding spot for the treasure. Wow…” She wiped her hands and became very excited. “I’m looking forward to what will happen next. Do you think we can find the treasure? The treasure that has been missing for more than 80 years is going to see the light again? God bless me, please let my boss solve this case, so that my big house…”

Just as Cui Lizhu was murmuring to herself, the blue truck in front of them drove into a deeper area of the mountain. Because of the rugged road and the overloaded heavy tools on the truck, the truck gradually slowed down.

Zhao Yu didn’t dare to get too close to the truck. He also slowed down and kept a distance.

The heavy rain showed no sign of stopping. As Zhao Yu drove deeper into the mountain there were dangerous cliffs on both sides of the road.

After around 20 minutes, it became more and more difficult for Zhao Yu to drive.

Finally, after the truck went through a forest, it stopped beside a steep cliff.

Fortunately, there was a shelter in the forest. Zhao Yu and the Secret Service agents stopped their cars immediately behind the shelter. Then they used binoculars to observe the truck.

Boom! At that moment, the thunder boomed in the sky overhead. Zhao Yu was starting to grow uneasy.

“They are out.” Although Cui Lizhu wasn’t using binoculars, she had good eyesight and saw the two people getting out of the truck.

They were both wearing raincoats. They quickly got out of the blue truck, then together they carried a huge machine out of the car and began to tie ropes from the cliff to the machine.

The heavy rain made it difficult for Zhao Yu to see exactly what they were doing.

It seemed as though they wanted to carry the heavy machine up the cliff.

A few minutes later, one of them climbed up the cliff with the help of ropes. Zhao Yu noticed that there was a small cave at the top of the cliff.

After a while, the heavy machine began to slowly move towards the cave.

Cui Lizhu lightly pushed Zhao Yu and asked, “Boss, what are you waiting for? They are climbing up to the clifftop. We must arrest them.”

Zhao Yu frowned and said, “Don’t. After they go into the cave, they will not be able to run away. Don’t forget the murders of the experts. We’d better be careful. It’s likely that there are more people than just them.”

“You should contact Li Jing and ask for support,” Cui Lizhu said.

“Well…” Zhao Yu picked up his phone, but his eyes were still staring into the distance. The two men were transporting a larger machine into the cave. Later, they began to carry other machines and equipment from the car to the cave.

Bang. As Zhao Yu was about to call Li Jing, his car door was opened from the outside. A cold wind blew in, and a woman in a black windbreaker quickly got into his car.

When Zhao Yu looked back, he and Cui Lizhu were shocked to see that the woman was Li Jing.

“You…” Zhao Yu stared at her. “How did you get here?” he asked.

Li Jing dusted the water drops off her long hair and said calmly, “When I called you, I was almost in Linshe. You drove so slowly that I caught up easily. Group leader Zhao, what’s the situation now?”

“They are carrying the machines and tools they bought in the hardware store up to the cave.” Zhao Yu handed the binoculars to Li Jing. Although he had issues with this woman, at the moment, Zhao Yu could put his mind at rest a little now that she was there.

“Are you sure about their identities? Are those two the Tian brothers?” Li Jing asked as she observed the two men.

“No, they wear hats. We can’t see their faces clearly,” Zhao Yu replied honestly. “But you can see how they tie the machines, which suggests that they might be in the same field as the two brothers.”

“Yes. it’s highly likely that they are the Tian brothers,” Li said. “Even if they are not, they used the Tian brothers’ bank card, and they must have something to do with their disappearance.”

“Then… We now…” Zhao Yu took a look at Li Jing.

“Don’t startle them,” she said. “Don’t forget about the murder of the experts. It’s likely there are not just these two people.”

“Well…” Cui Lizhu was surprised. What Li Jing said was almost the same as what Zhao Yu had told her earlier.

“In that case…” Zhao Yu said cautiously, “let’s call more people over.”

Li Jing pointed behind her. “You don’t need to worry about that. I have enough people with me to protect you guys.”

“No, that’s not what I mean,” Zhao Yu said. “Captain Li, it’s better to be careful. Think about it, they should be aware that the police can trace the bank card that they used to them. We have to be careful.”

“I know.” Li Jing watched the truck in the distance and said, “but we can’t be sure yet. The Tian brothers must have something to do with the experts’ murder. So, we must follow them into the cave and see what the two men are planning to do.”

“They used the bank card because they have no money. And going into the cave doesn’t mean that they are looking for the treasure.” Li Jing put down her binoculars and said, “The rain is pouring down. I don’t want to bother my colleagues for support before I am sure that they are the two people we want.”

“To be honest, I don’t believe that the treasure would be hidden in such a place. According to what we found, all of the mountains in Linshe had been searched by remote sensors. Even if the treasure really exists, it can’t be buried here,” Li Jing said coldly.

Hearing this, Zhao Yu looked at the mobile map and found that the cliff where the two men were working was only about six kilometers away from Yishan Fortress, and they were in the same mountain range.

Zhao Yu felt the same as Li Jing. He didn’t think that the treasure would be buried here. However, when he thought of his Kun Gen hexagram, he got a strange feeling.

“All right, they have entered the cave. Let’s go and have a look. Group leader Zhao, if you still have concerns, you can stand by to await my news,” Li Jing told Zhao Yu. “Let’s keep in touch the whole time.” After Li Jing finished speaking, she opened the door and get out of the car without waiting for Zhao Yu to respond.

Cui Lizhu clapped Zhao Yu on the back. “Boss, this is a flagrant provocation. You are the crazy detective. How can you let her humiliate you in front of her people?”
