Chapter 863
"There might be one or two who slipped through the net and hid quietly on the side while you were beating people."
"And while you were there to pick us up, they took the person away."
Captain Liu thought of this possibility, and Cai Renzhao also realized this situation.
"The village chief is seriously injured and probably can't run far."
"We have so many people. Why don't we leave a few people to guard the place while the others search around."
While in the car, Cai Renzhao had already told Captain Liu about his physical appearance and current injuries.
"I also think that the village chief is so seriously injured that he can't get far even if someone carries him!"
"The four of you stay here to guard these people, and try to pry open their mouths."
"Everyone else, follow me. We'll conduct a thorough search of the surrounding area. Even if we have to dig deep underground, we'll find this cunning village chief!"
Under the leadership of Captain Liu, the soldiers immediately took up their duties.
The remaining four soldiers fished out four villagers who were tied together.
They placed the four men in four different corners and then interrogated them separately.
The reason for separating them is that their statements need to be compared after the interrogation.
Then we can filter out who is lying and who is telling the truth.
The soldiers have received professional training and do these things in an orderly manner.
Captain Liu and Cai Renzhao each led a team to conduct a carpet search around the bridge tunnel.
The town was not very big, and they had enough manpower, so they searched the entire town in just two hours.
However, strangely, after searching the entire village, the village chief was nowhere to be found.
Logically speaking, the village chief was seriously injured and it would be easy for him to leave traces on the ground when he left. It would be impossible for him to disappear without a trace like he did now.
Cai Renzhao brought his men back, but Captain Liu was still searching the town unwillingly.
Cai Renzhao came to the river and suddenly saw the place where the village chief was tied up before. There was a shallow mark on the shore.
He walked there quickly, looked around, and soon he was sure.
"The village chief was taken away by water. There are still traces of him being dragged here."
"We'll search downstream and should find something soon."
After hearing what Cai Renzhao said, the soldiers hurried to the shore to take a look.
The mark is very shallow and not obvious on the surface.
And in their perception, injured people would not choose to travel by water.
But I didn't expect that the village chief would do the opposite in order to survive.
He ignored his injuries and insisted on taking the water route.
In this way, no matter how hard they searched in the town, they would not be able to find him.
I have to say that this village chief is quite capable as he is able to organize so many people and develop the beggar village to its current scale.
His logical thinking is different from that of ordinary people, and he always has all kinds of strange ideas.
It is precisely because he does not play by the rules that he has been able to get to where he is today.
The reason why he had not been discovered before was entirely because he had a quick mind and took the initiative to avoid risks again and again.
If he hadn't angered Lin Wanxin and Cai Cai Renzhao this time, he probably could have continued to be active for several more years and wouldn't have been discovered so soon.
"Let's go, they can't get far. Let's follow this road downstream and we should find them soon."
Cai Renzhao made a prompt decision and immediately led his soldiers to search along the river bank.
Because they had wasted a lot of time searching in the town before, they walked a long way along the river bank without seeing anyone.
When the soldiers saw this, they had some doubts about his decision.
However, despite their doubts, the soldiers in the army all have a spirit of obedience, and since the leader has not said they want to go back, it is impossible for anyone to act on their own.
