I am a super cop

Chapter 2137 Lurking Confrontation
At the moment when he saw the creases on the branches, Gu Chen actually breathed a sigh of relief.

It can be seen that no matter how thoughtful the other party is, there are times when there is a hundred secrets and a sparse one.

Sometimes reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance are so delicate, a small clue can make a difference.

Details are always the key to success or failure.

Officer Wang felt the cut where the branches were broken, looked at the traces on the ground, and said involuntarily:

"Although the incision is new, the other party must have traveled a long distance, at least the footprints are not obvious."

"Old Wang, if you don't tell me, I almost didn't notice it." After being reminded by Police Officer Wang, Lu Weiwei turned on her strong flashlight and pointed it at the ground in a circle.

It was only then that it was discovered that the darkness made everyone relax their detection of the ground.

Because the snow here is located in the valley, it melts later than other places.

But here, the other party's footprints are looming, and it is still easy to distinguish.

"What does that guy want? Just lying in front of him all the time? Want to avoid our detection?" Officer Wang felt that the other party should mean that.

Lu Weiwei told Police Officer Wang who was following closely behind, "Old Wang, look at Junior Brother Gu later, don't let him fight desperately with him."

Gu Chen didn't reply, but continued to observe the movement ahead.

Gu Chen didn't think too much at the moment, and directly reminded Officer Wang, "Senior Brother Wang, help me take out the thermal imaging night vision device from the backpack."

"Therefore, it is difficult for this attacker to retreat all the way and eliminate footprints all the way, so he relaxed his guard here."

"In this way, doesn't it give us a chance?"

In the process of handling the case, Lu Weiwei has always expressed an optimistic attitude, but in the face of this complicated environment, Lu Weiwei has no idea.

But when Gu Chen walked to a certain location, he suddenly made a gesture of attention in sign language.

So Gu Chen gestured with sign language again, but the other party stayed still.

"Okay, I'll go with you." Hearing this, Police Officer Wang gripped the mechanical baton even tighter.

"I have exhausted enough physical strength for various anti-reconnaissance before."

This is also why, sometimes when the police are chasing criminals, they try not to irritate the other party and drive the other party into a desperate situation.

……

"Ccrunch! Crunch!"

Liu Xing choked up, and said in a low voice, "Officer Gu, could the assailant be hiding somewhere in front?"

"If you die here, it will definitely be worth the loss. That's why the other party decided to give up counter-reconnaissance and began to go all out to rush out of the hinterland of Xiannv Peak."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go." Lu Weiwei couldn't wait.

"And here, the other party no longer cleaned up their footprints, which exposed themselves."

Old comrades always rush to the forefront, which is my practice for many years in the police force.

And this expensive four-eye night vision device also has a thermal imaging function.

So Gu Chen decided to suspend the forward sign language movements, and everyone in the back row understood, and immediately squatted down on the spot, waiting for Gu Chen's further instructions.

Seeing Gu Chen and Police Officer Wang advancing slowly, Lu Weiwei also became anxious.

"How?" Officer Wang asked.

Gu Chen and Police Officer Wang obviously didn't want to push each other into a desperate situation, so they tried not to turn on the flashlight as they moved forward.

The main reason is that in such a dim environment, once the criminals are driven to a dead end, they can do anything.

"Understood." Hearing what Gu Chen said, Police Officer Wang also knew very well the importance of night vision devices for night operations.

"Could it be Chen Li?" Liu Xing, who was squatting in the back row, raised his eyebrows suddenly, feeling nervous.

"I just feel that walking like this is a waste of time. Although I can counter-reconnaissance, it is a question of whether I have the physical strength to get out of the Fairy Peak."

In this way, the flashlight can only ensure that the road ahead can be seen clearly.

Obviously, the other party has realized this.

Gu Chen suddenly fell into doubt.

Lu Weiwei approached Gu Chen and asked softly, "Junior Brother Gu, what did you find?"

So Gu Chen began to observe 360 ​​degrees without any blind spots.

If the distance is relatively short, Gu Chen can use his master-level observation skills to hear some movements of the other party.

"But now, in this valley, it seems that we can make some strange noises of stepping on the snow, which is a bit strange."

So he shook his head and denied, "I've found that heat source right now."

Even if he had to sacrifice, he would stand in front of Gu Chen without hesitation.

Gu Chen didn't think too much, and threw out the mechanical baton directly.

So he opened Gu Chen's backpack and took out a night vision device from inside.

The gangster can be caught again if he escapes, but he only has one life.

Gu Chen hesitated again and again, but also slowly said: "How about, everyone stay here and wait for instructions, Senior Brother Wang and I will go over first to have a look."

This is the equipment that Gu Chen asked to bring before departure.

But if you don't use a flashlight, it is difficult to find the road signs ahead.

"And, judging from the footprints, it should be the footprints of two people."

Seeing that Gu Chen just nodded slightly, he had already started to grope forward.

"From the top of Fairy Peak, all the way to this place, it can be said to be cautious."

"Maybe." Gu Chen doesn't know what the other party is doing now?In particular, it's not clear whether the other party has discovered that his team has tracked him down?
But judging from the movements made by everyone walking, Gu Chen felt that in such a quiet valley, it should be easy to find.

"The opponent's footprints seem to be a bit messy, and..."

However, at this moment, Gu Chen found that the previous footprints began to become messy.

"What the hell is that guy trying to do? This kind of posture, and we can't observe us, so what's the use of the other party wearing night vision goggles?"

Just like that, Gu Chen stayed in place for 3 minutes, but the other party seemed to be motionless, which made Gu Chen very puzzled:

"It can be seen that the other party is retreating while cleaning up his footprints along the way."

Just by the faint moonlight, I started to grope forward.

It is mainly to deal with emergencies encountered in night search.

"How is it? Did you find anything?" Officer Wang continued to ask Gu Chen.

"Indeed." Yuan Shasha also saw that the footprints belonged to two people, and immediately replied, "Judging from the size of the footprints, it should be a man and a woman."

"Is there only one heat source? Are there other heat sources around? After all, the other party may be two people, and there should be an accomplice. They may be lying in ambush nearby. Be careful." Officer Wang continued to remind Gu Chen based on his experience. .

"My God!" Officer Wang couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, "But I have to say, this guy is really capable."

"Look again, what is the other party's posture now?" Officer Wang continued to ask.

Everyone stepped on the snow, making "creaking" noises from time to time.

And now, it's obviously come in handy.

Sometimes even have to let the gangster go, and then seek new opportunities.

The flashlight shined on the footprints on the ground a few times, and Gu Chen said again: "But when we got here, it's obvious that the other party is already exhausted."

"And it was snowing heavily at that time. As long as I erased the traces of my relatively shallow footprints and added the heavy snow cover, the footprints would soon be submerged."

Liu Xing was a little timid, knowing the truth that the more dangerous it was at this time, so he had to hide behind everyone and started to follow the last row of the team.

When everyone saw this, they also showed their police weapons.

Everyone was cautious and started to move forward in a search formation.

Pointing to the position ahead, Gu Chen continued to explain: "Because there are trees in front of us, we can see the opponent's body, but the opponent doesn't seem to be able to see us."

Listening to the discussion of these policemen now, it seems that danger is around the corner.

You can use a flashlight, and it is easy to expose yourself, so that the other party can find that someone is following you.

Police officer Wang is a little bit unclear, but Gu Chen has a master level of observation, even in such a low-light environment, he can barely see the road clearly.

"Is there a tree blocking the line of sight?" Hearing Gu Chen's explanation, Police Officer Wang suddenly became hesitant, and said involuntarily:

Officer Wang next to him immediately squatted down with Gu Chen.

This kind of anxiety seems to have formed a strong sixth sense in the process of handling cases many times.

"Okay." Gu Chen agreed.

"And what?" At this time, Police Officer Wang had also come to the other side of Gu Chen.

"How about we take a detour and see the situation?" Gu Chen suggested.

Gu Chen shook his head: "Not yet, but it's a little strange. Logically speaking, if someone walks in front, they should make the same noise as us."

"Damn it, it looks like it's really here?" Officer Wang became vigilant when he heard this.

"Gu Chen, look again, is there a weapon in the opponent's hand?"

But if someone is found to be stalking, a smart person should find a way to eliminate the footprints and hide himself.

But now, in the entire valley, the silence is a little scary.

"So, in this valley, the opponent is already very tired. It may be that he feels that it is not worthwhile to retreat so overloaded to cover up his traces."

"Yes." Listening to Gu Chen's narration, Lu Weiwei also walked to Gu Chen's side, and couldn't help but echoed:
"The assailant already felt very safe, and he would never have thought that we would track all the way to the road across Fairy Peak."

The front is dark, and everyone is in a deep valley, so the sight is very disadvantaged.

But Liu Xing, who was following behind the crowd, did not dare to interrupt a word.

"The other party may be nearby, and I even smell a bloody smell." Gu Chen said vigilantly.

Otherwise, once the gangster loses control of his emotions, it is easy to fight the police to death, which is the last result that everyone wants to see.

But for the sake of caution, Officer Wang still denied it: "Wait a little longer, wait a few more minutes, if there is no movement from the other party in a few minutes, then let's go over and see the situation."

Lu Weiwei was a little worried and said, "Then Junior Brother Gu, be careful."

At this moment, Gu Chen felt more and more that the other party was not far ahead.

Therefore, Gu Chen lowered the flashlight beam as much as possible, and focused the flashlight beam on one point.

"I know, with me by Gu Chen's side, I won't let him suffer any harm." It feels like Lu Weiwei's words are superfluous.

After gesturing the length with his hand, Officer Wang said again: "The other party can bear such a long distance, which shows that the other party is also thoughtful."

Yuan Shasha crossed her arms and said with some confusion: "This guy is quite cunning. I haven't seen this person's footprints before, but I can see them here. How did he do it before? Could it be that he eliminated himself all the way?" Footprints?"

Officer Wang nodded silently, quickly patted Gu Chen on the shoulder, leaned into Gu Chen's ear and whispered:

"There was one footprint, probably a size 44 shoe, but another footprint, it should have been a size 37."

Gu Chen paused, and continued to use the hardware advantages of the four-eye night vision device to observe the heat source target ahead.

According to Officer Wang's reminder, Gu Chen continued to observe, but at this moment, he found that the heat source seemed to be there all the time, without any movement.

Gu Chen gestured sign language to Police Officer Wang, indicating that a thermal imaging target was found in the direction of everyone's two o'clock.

"The opponent is equipped with four-eye night vision devices. We have actually exposed the target in front of the opponent."

"Yeah, I also have an ominous premonition." Lu Weiwei's heart skipped a beat at the moment, saying that the quieter you are, the closer the danger will be.

"Then according to this progress, we will definitely be able to catch up with the other party very soon. The other party uses anti-reconnaissance behaviors to shuttle through the hinterland of Fairy Girl Peak, and that must be at the expense of speed."

"Just like how we found the injured Zhao Lei before, we didn't find any traces of footprints at the beginning."

What's more, I have children and a family, and Gu Chen hasn't married yet. From this point alone, I have to be at the forefront.

"In this way, the other party can wipe out his own footprints without anyone noticing."

When Gu Chen, with the assistance of Police Officer Wang, put the four-eye night vision device on his head, at this moment, the scene in front of him began to become clear.

"Yes, that's it." Yuan Shasha snapped her fingers and said with a smile:

"So after a short rest here, I used the machete and started chopping the blocked branches with the blade."

Gu Chen squatted on the ground, observing left and right.

But at this moment, there seemed to be no abnormal noise in front of him.

Gu Chen also turned on the master-level observation ability, fully observing the movement around him.

Gu Chen soon discovered that there seemed to be a heat source in the woods not far away.

Logically speaking, at this time, there must be some movement.

But Gu Chen shook his head, denied it and said: "From the position of the other party lying down, it seems that the position of the head does not see us at all."

"I think so." Just as Yuan Shasha finished speaking, Gu Chen also nodded in agreement:
"In my opinion, the attacker was cautious when retreating."

"It's strange, why is this heat source motionless? It's been several minutes, and there is no response at all."

But after turning around in circles for a week, I didn't find that there was any heat source around me.

In this way, the two continued to stay in place and waited for about 5 minutes.

At this moment, Gu Chen felt that the time was right, so he stood up resolutely this time, ready to outflank him from the other side.
