Chapter 588 Design Escape (02)

After Xiaolu left, she became much quieter, and Si Xuanyi was even a little unaccustomed to this life without Xiaolu. In all fairness, this girl did have a way of taking care of people, she was absolutely meticulous.

However, Xiaolu's departure did make Si Xuanyi heave a sigh of relief. He can give it a go without any worries. Although his current physical condition is very weak, he still does some non-violent exercise. He asked Lin Feng to prepare it for him. He bought two guns, one long and one short, and kept them all loaded by his side in case of emergencies. Now the situation outside is tense, and the Central Command’s massive search is still going on. Anything can happen. Once found here, he will Prepare to fight to the death.

It has been raining for the past few days, and the continuous rainy days make people really upset. The actions of the Central Committee have not been restrained by the rain. In a shop two streets away from Si Xuanyi's hiding place, Han Baohua is sitting in the middle hall watching Looking at the rainy day outside, listening to the reports of his subordinates, the room was full of people, including his subordinates, and some specialties from other places who were temporarily transferred.

"It must be done as soon as possible. At least a general scope must be determined. We can't search blindly like this." Han Baohua said, "Now the higher-ups want to intervene in this matter. The trouble is too big. They want an explanation, so they can't let it go. So thank you for your hard work, brothers."

"We have probably determined this range, it should be within five streets before and after." Someone reported, "We found that he has been to this place several times, and we have also done investigations. He basically never came to this area before, and he has no acquaintances. There is no shop he frequents, let alone on the way he must go home, and he was very cautious when he came here, and our several follow-ups all ended in failure."

"The behavior is indeed abnormal. When was the last time it happened?" Han Baohua asked.
The subordinate replied: "Yesterday, but compared with before, the interval is longer."

Han Baohua nodded: "It may be that he has noticed that we have become more cautious in monitoring him. He must still be in the city, and he has listed this area as the focus, but on the premise of ensuring the blockade of the whole city, we must mobilize manpower. There are many?"

"About 50 people. If we temporarily transfer some people, we can come over one after another, but it may affect the overall situation. There is no guarantee that since the other places are preventive, it may cause defensive loopholes and give the opponent an opportunity; to be honest, this time we Too much manpower has been invested, and coordination with the garrison is very troublesome, so..." said the subordinate.

"Hmm..." Han Baohua nodded, "First block the key streets, the number of people is too small, it is impossible to carry out a blanket search of such a large area, many places here are the private houses of important people with status and status , You can’t break in casually, check off all these places first, and search the rest first, if you don’t find them, then consider these places, how long will it take to complete the investigation and search of this area with the current manpower?”

"This area is too big, with messy buildings, numerous streets, and complicated personnel structure. If everything goes well, it will take about three to five days to complete the search. If you want to do it secretly, it may take longer. .” Said the subordinate.

"As long as we enter this area, the other party will definitely notice it. Secret search is not an option, and we will be discovered sooner or later. It is better to make the noise louder and force them out." Han Baohua thought about it.

"Knock the mountain to shake the tiger? Your move is really clever." The subordinate said flatteringly.

"It's just an idea, you have to think about it carefully, don't just flatter me." Han Baohua sneered, "If it wasn't for your trash, I wouldn't have been sent to the front line to suffer."

In fact, he was quite dissatisfied with the performance of these people.

Han Baohua shook his head and was quite disdainful to the people present. He has always complained about his suspension. Since his wife and children were released, he suddenly found that what he did before seemed meaningless. The biggest gain is Si Xuanyi's confession came at a huge price, almost costing the lives of his wife and children. In fact, he and Si Xuanyi did not have any personal grudges. He got off his horse and done too many things. It can be said with certainty that his goal has been achieved. Now that he holds Si Xuanyi's confession in his hand, he has basically made it so that Si Xuanyi can never go back and can only die in exile. Sylphy has been arrested and brought to justice. In fact, no matter whether he is caught or not, Si Xuanyi will never recover.

Although after going through all kinds of turmoil, he achieved such a great result, Han Baohua couldn't be happy at all. It seemed that these had become dull. Si Xuanyi kept lingering on a sentence in his mind all the time. Go, "If you don't go to the war of resistance and kill the enemy, you will be intriguing and fighting for power all day long, which is not doing your job properly."

Putting aside their opposing identities, Han Baohua actually admired Si Xuanyi's dedication to serving the country and his work attitude. Although it was very stupid to want to stay out of power struggles, it also proved Si Xuanyi's distaste for dark officialdom and his work attitude. The idea of ​​serving the country wholeheartedly, to be honest, Han Baohua once had a similar idea, but how many people in this big dye vat can really stick to their ideals and not sink into it?At least I didn't do it, and I'm still stuck in it. When did my radical desire to serve the country run out?Han Baohua really doesn't know how he became what he is now. Once upon a time, he was also a pure and passionate young man, but now he finds that he has turned into an insidious and cunning spy chief who only targets his own people. Hey... …Thinking about it now, he is really ashamed of the ideals and ambitions of the past, but now it seems that these are meaningless, and it is impossible to stay out of things in this circle.

In fact, Han Baohua did not have much confidence in continuing to lead this search and arrest operation. To be precise, he should have no enthusiasm. He didn't enter the working state at all, and he looked like he had to do it, let alone any enthusiasm.

However, Han Baohua still made a series of necessary deployments and arrangements. Whether he is motivated or not, this job has to be done.

When Han Baohua came back two days ago, the higher-ups asked him to arrest him within a time limit, and had already sent people to monitor Si Xuanyi's men. Recently, it was discovered that Li Siming was here, which aroused the suspicion of the upper-level. It stands to reason that Li Siming had no reason to come to this place. Come on, so the first thing the above thought was that Si Xuanyi might be hiding nearby, so he focused on controlling this area, that is, the spies that Lin Feng saw before were active nearby, and the reappearance of Li Siming yesterday confirmed the judgment of the upper management , So continue to strengthen the search and surveillance in this area, and transfer Han Baohua to supervise this work.

This area is a densely populated area of ​​the whole city, with ups and downs, criss-crossing and criss-crossing streets, and the environment is quite complicated. It takes a lot of manpower and a long time to complete the search of this area. What is even more difficult to deal with is this area. There are many real estates owned by high-ranking officials, dignitaries, merchants, and rich people. Many of these properties are under the name of high-ranking military and political officials. It is the only clue they have about Si Xuanyi's relationship so far, and they must not give up easily.

That night, when Lin Feng came back, he realized that something was wrong with the surrounding area. There were a lot more spies, and the location had begun to move inwards, as if they were slowly moving forward. He used the cover of darkness to pass through the room. Over the ridge to avoid these spies, before returning to the foothold, he climbed up to the second floor of the tallest nearby building, squatting on the top of the building like a sculpture, motionless, through the dense rain curtain, he carefully observed the building under his feet The movement in the community, people passing by occasionally on the street, most of the roadside stalls did not come out because of the rain, the lights in the shops were still flickering, few people came in and out, it was getting late, some shops had already closed, and some spies were Walking slowly on the street, it seems to be looking for suspicious pedestrians, and it seems to be paying attention to the problematic facades on the street. In short, this generation is not living in peace.

After careful observation, Lin Feng came down from upstairs and carefully followed two spies passing by in a hurry. In the darkness, almost no one could notice his existence. Although the two spies were riding bicycles, they couldn't get rid of him. After crossing the streets and alleys, it didn't take long to arrive at Han Baohua's temporary headquarters.

In the main hall there was a big round table full of dishes, Han Baohua sat there alone and poured himself a drink, and there were a few spies standing beside him, and the two people followed by Lin Feng walked in while shaking off the rainwater from their bodies.

Han Baohua glanced at the two of them and poured two glasses of wine casually: "Keep out the cold."

The two looked at each other, thanked them, walked over cautiously, picked up the wine and drank it down, and then put it down politely, not daring to sit down from the beginning to the end.

"How's the situation?" Han Baohua asked while eating the dishes.

"It has been found out that Chen Dazi did get a batch of penicillin and sold it at a high price. For this reason, Li Siming once said hello to him. Our people have already gone to Chen Dazi. I believe he will explain the drug soon. Where to go." A man said, wiping the rain off his face.

"This matter has something to do with Li Siming again..." Han Baohua took a sip of his wine, "How much does this person really know?"

"He probably knows Si Xuanyi's whereabouts. If he is arrested and interrogated, he should be rewarded," said one of his subordinates.

"Is the trouble we caused small? The higher-ups are quite dissatisfied with our previous behavior. Basically, everything we do now is to help us clean up the mess. If we attack Li Siming again, the trouble will really end. Yes, although we have already won staged victories, we still let Si Xuanyi run away after all. This made us not tough enough to speak when we confronted the military command. The military command has completely pushed these things on Si Xuanyi and asked us Hand over this case as soon as possible, and let them handle it as a housework. To be honest, we can't delay it for a few days. We must try our best to track down Si Xuanyi's whereabouts. We don't have time to do other things. Even if we arrest Li Siming, who can guarantee him? Will confess? If he is a diehard like Si Xuanyi, wouldn't our efforts be in vain? Besides, who would dare to take such a big risk? The higher-ups will definitely not agree to do so."

"We are getting help from the garrison coordinator. It is estimated that there will be results soon. If we can get enough manpower, we can turn over this generation in the shortest possible time. No matter how capable Si Xuanyi is, it is impossible. Hiding in the houses of those important officials, his actions have already made everyone avoid him in fear, and no one dares to hide a common criminal."

Han Baohua nodded: "Make arrangements as soon as possible and implement them as soon as possible. The higher-ups don't want to delay too long."

"Yes! Let's go right away." The two immediately turned around and went out pushing the car to hide in the night rain.

Han Baohua looked at the rain outside and continued to drink. After a while, he said again: "Order the second department to check the latest movements of Chen Mazi and the offline of his transactions. Don't arrest him yet, so as not to startle the snake."

"Yes!" Someone immediately went to do it.

Han Baohua shook the jug, unknowingly half a catty of wine had bottomed out, someone immediately brought a jug and filled it up for him.

Han Baohua lit a cigarette: "Map."

Someone hurriedly brought up a map of the city, and Han Baohua smoked a cigarette, looking at the map for a long time without speaking.

Lin Feng saw that there was no point in talking any more, so he retreated quietly. There was a long silence in the middle hall. Han Baohua stared at the map for a long time and then drew a few circles on it. One of them was a large area centered on his current location. , He made some sketches within the delineated area, and in the end there were a few small but very scattered communities left. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

"Is this the area to focus on?" The subordinates didn't understand it very well, and didn't know what the remaining blank spaces were for.

"These places are actually worthless, and the rest are the most suspicious places." Han Baohua took another sip of his wine, "Why haven't people arrived yet?"

"It's already here, and I've been waiting outside." The subordinate said.

"Tell him to come in." Han Baohua put down his glass.

Soon, a man in a raincoat hurried in. It was obvious that he had been standing outside for a long time, his trousers were already splashed with water, and his shoes were completely soaked.

"Sit..." Han Baohua waved and pointed to the seat on one side.

The man hesitated for a moment, took off his raincoat and threw it aside, revealing a pale and young face, which was almost sickly pale, without any blood at all. If Lin Feng left later, he would definitely see that there was already The person I haven't seen for a while, yes, this person is Fang Yuanshan who has disappeared for a long time.

Fang Yuanshan looked at the food and drink on the table and licked his lips: "Just tell me what you want me to do."
