Once they were alarmed, the consequences were self-evident.
Zhou Nanhai sighed softly. Captain Wang’s words had hit the nail on the head. The terrain of Maple Ridge was north to south. The north was directly connected to the dense forest, and the south was close to the city. If they could not compress the battle in this area, regardless of whether this group of tomb raiders ran south or north, it would bring greater trouble to the SWAT team.
After a moment of silence, Zhou Nanhai thought for a moment and said, “How about this? We’ll mobilize the drones to investigate at a low altitude first. Since we could not enter the mountain, we would first set up an aerial control outside. Coincidentally, there were a few suspected hiding places here. They were close to the outside of the mountain, so the drone should be able to capture them.
“We have to ensure that we could figure out the location of the criminal as much as possible without the criminal noticing. At the very least, we have to figure out the situation at the edge of Maple Ridge.
“This way, although some of the hiding places are blocked by the dense forest and the drones can’t enter, at least we can eliminate a few of these choices.
There was no other way at the moment. Captain Wang nodded helplessly. Soon, a special SWAT drone slowly rose into the sky under careful control. It melted into the night and flew towards the sky above Maple Ridge.
Due to this special drone, its appearance was covered in extremely easy to hide paint. Moreover, on a night with extremely low visibility, it could indeed be imperceptible. Soon, the SWAT team members sent the screen connected to the drone to the computer screen.
This way, all the SWAT team members in the car could see the footage of the drone in real time through the computer screen. The actual situation was almost the same as marked on the map. There were only three hiding places that were exposed in sight.
The drone did not encounter any bottlenecks during this period of time. Soon, it investigated the three hiding places. The SWAT team quickly eliminated the possibility of these three hiding places. This also meant that the drone reconnaissance method did not bring them a huge breakthrough.
Although he had eliminated three hiding places, there were still many hiding places hidden in the dense forest. The drones could not pass through at all. The dense forest was in the sky, and their vision would be greatly blocked.contemporary romance
Moreover, considering that the other party’s criminal gang was very professional, they would definitely be involved in many hidden sentry posts. The drone might expose the secret operation of the SWAT team. In that case, the gains would not make up for the losses.
Zhou Nanhai frowned.
If Xu Jiajia was really kidnapped, it meant that the current situation was urgent. At the very least, if Xu Jiajia was really in the mountains, every second she delayed would increase the risk for the operation. If a girl stayed in the hands of the vicious criminals for another second, she would also face a life-and-death crisis.
The police could not take the risk. But now, the SWAT team was all trapped at the foot of Maple Ridge. As they could not determine the location of the criminals, the raid could not be deployed.
Sizzle… Sizzle…
At this moment, a disturbing sound came from the police internal communicator on Zhou Nanhai’s waist.
Faced with such a bottleneck, Zhou Nanhai was already annoyed enough. The sudden appearance of this voice naturally interrupted his thoughts, preventing him from thinking of an effective plan in a short period of time.
However, the signal within the line was quickly picked up and Zhou Xiaoxiao’s voice came. “Report, the investigator at the south of the mountain reported that he found a hiding place that suddenly lit up with a weak light.”
“What?” Zhou Nanhai and Captain Wang looked at each other in confusion. This situation was not within their expectations. According to the police’s previous investigation, this criminal gang could be said to be very professional. Logically speaking, they would never make such a mistake.
Regarding this sudden news, Zhou Nanhai confirmed it repeatedly. However, Zhou Xiaoxiao’s tone was also very firm as she repeatedly stated the accuracy of the information. For a moment, Captain Wang could not figure out the other party’s plan. “Something’s not right. They’ve always been cautious. Why did they suddenly light up? It just so happens that we can’t confirm their location.
No matter how I think about it, it’s a little too coincidental, right?”
Zhou Nanhai nodded in agreement. “That’s right. It’s indeed very strange. We have been here for more than an hour. With our current understanding of Maple Ridge and the distribution of all the hiding places, it was not easy to find them. However, under such circumstances, they inexplicably turned on the lights. Isn’t this clearly telling us that they’re hiding there?”
“You mean this is a conspiracy?” Captain Wang looked at Zhou Nanhai cautiously and asked.
Zhou Nanhai thought for a moment before saying, “It’s hard to say. If it’s a conspiracy, there’s something that doesn’t make sense. Originally, the tomb raiders could have left without anyone knowing after stealing the national treasure. Why did they kidnap Xu Jiajia? We have no answer to this question.
“Even now, we still can’t be sure if Xu Jiajia is really in their hands. They clearly had the advantage, so why did they rashly expose their location now? Wouldn’t it increase their risk? These tomb raiders were well-trained. How could they make such a mistake one after another? This doesn’t make sense. It’s a little too strange..”
