Taking a deep breath, Zhou Nanhai shook his head slightly. Pig Head Rong’s motive could be investigated later. He could also find out the exact situation later. Now, he could only assume that Xu Jiajia had indeed fallen into Pig Head Rong’s hands.
The most important thing now was to save Xu Jiajia safely. As the daughter of a military officer, it was extremely dangerous for Xu Jiajia to fall into the hands of a group of tomb raiders.
“Inform everyone that the operation has been canceled! Tell the investigators to keep an eye on the movements in the Maple Ridge area. If they discover any abnormal movements, report immediately!” He said quickly. “Contact the headquarters immediately.” He looked at Zhou Xiaoxiao. “Ask the SWAT team for help! The rest of you,” he ordered again, “stay where you are and take the time to rest. When the SWAT team arrives, assist according to the request of the SWAT team.”
This time, the police directly adopted a multi-disciplinary strategy and deployed investigators on the top of the mountain near the Burning Mountain and Maple Ridge, so that they could grasp the movements of the Pig Head Rong gang.
Due to the fact that Pig Head Rong and the others were extremely vigilant and were familiar with the forest, much more familiar with it than the police, therefore, the police did not rashly enter the Maple Ridge area at the moment. Instead, they were on standby in their respective directions of attack, waiting for the general attack to begin.
The overall attack time was actually 10 p.m.
The police had only obtained information about the area where Pig Head Rong was, and this information could not be confirmed. In addition, the surrounding environment of Maple Ridge was restricted. The terrain was complicated, the mountain wind was strong and unstable, and the vegetation was dense. This caused many high-tech methods, such as drones, to be unusable. They could only use manpower to investigate.
According to Zhou Nanhai’s calculations, the police could compress the space of Pig Head Rong’s gang step by step and complete the encirclement around two o’clock.
But now, this plan has already failed.
Pig Head Rong had a hostage in his hand, and it was an extremely important hostage. When it came to hostage rescue, ordinary police officers were no longer qualified for such a mission.
After all, it was already an extremely risky operation to let ordinary police officers capture a group of habitual bandits. This was on account of the fact that the other party did not have many people and their weapons were not too
advanced.
If it involved the safety of the hostages, they could only leave it to the SWAT team to deal with it. Before the SWAT team arrived, any alerting of Pig Head Rong’s gang might put Xu Jiajia in danger.
Zhou Xiaoxiao began to contact the headquarters. A moment later, she turned around. “Commander-in-chief, the SWAT team has accepted our request and is gathering. ”
Zhou Nanhai nodded slightly. He closed his eyes and began to rest. However, there was still a question lingering in his heart.
Why did Pig Head Rong kidnap Xu Jiajia?
While Zhou Nanhai was filled with doubts at the foot of the Burning Mountain, Xu Jiajia was also trying to find an answer on Maple Ridge. After she was kidnapped, she was brought all the way to Maple Ridge. During this period, she did not encounter any danger. Pig Head Rong only warned her briefly not to act rashly.
As for Pig Head Rong’s lackeys, they were also obedient. Although they were clearly hostile to her, especially the thin man and burly man who she had beaten up, they still did not go overboard.
It was just that when he tied Xu Jiajia up, the rope was a little tighter.
This was very strange to Xu Jiajia. She knew very well that her father was investigating Pig Head Rong and the other tomb raiders. The two sides could be said to be arch-enemies. Then, the other party’s kidnapping her should be an act of venting his anger.contemporary romance
But from the looks of it, that did not seem to be the case. She was locked in a shallow hole in the ground. Although it was called a hole in the ground, it was actually more like a cellar because this hole was probably used to store certain living supplies. Moreover, according to the surrounding mold smell, it should have been left behind from the past. It was probably the lair of the former bandits.
There were many traces left behind by bandits decades or even hundreds of years ago on Maple Ridge. These things did not have any archeological value, so no one cared. There was a lamp in the hole, but this was useless because Xu Jiajia’s eyes were already covered. Other than seeing a blurry shadow through the cloth, she could not see anything.
She did not act rashly because although she could not see, she could always hear the sound of breathing. Clearly, the other party had also sent someone to guard her.
“Hey,” she said suddenly. “Is anyone there?”
No one answered, but the breathing was still there and paused for a moment. Clearly, the other party was watching her.
“No one is paying attention to me, right? I’m going to shout!” she said provocatively.
Still, no one made a sound.
“Help!” Xu Jiajia’s clear voice suddenly sounded.
“Shut up!” A scolding voice sounded in the cellar. At the same time, heavy footsteps came from above. With a crash, the cover was opened and a cold voice sounded. “What are you shouting for?”
Xu Jiajia was very familiar with these two voices. The person guarding her was obviously the burly underling whose arm she had almost broken. The person who had rushed over when he heard her voice was the leader.
“Miss Xu, you don’t want your mouth to be gagged, right?” The leader’s voice was clearly filled with anger. After all, Xu Jiajia’s voice was indeed a little loud just now. Moreover, the woman’s voice was sharp and could be heard by people from afar..
