Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Searching the mountain and participating in the city-wide arrest campaign

The incident happened suddenly, and Chen Da's order was urgent, so Qiu Jiang and his group had no idea what was going on and hurriedly followed him out.

Although the rain had stopped yesterday, the road was still wet. When several people stepped on the muddy road, their feet were immediately covered with mud, adding extra weight.

For fear of delaying the mission, they didn't even bother to stamp their feet to shake off the mud before getting on the car, but jumped on it in one step.

Chen Da did not explain to them, drove away from the police station, and anxiously reported to the other side with the walkie-talkie.

"Anlu District has dispatched six people, currently heading along Binhe Road towards Nanshan Prison. Please give us your instructions, please give us your instructions—"

After the noisy crackling sound from the intercom, a voice speaking at a very fast speed came.

"City Bureau, upon arrival, please follow the east tunnel up the mountain. Keep a close eye on your surroundings and report any signs of danger immediately."

"Got it, got it."

After hanging up the intercom, Chen Da quickly changed gears and stepped on the accelerator harder. The dilapidated van roared desperately on the road and rushed out like an arrow in an instant.

Qiu Jiang and the others were caught off guard and were thrown hard onto the back of the car. Their backs hurt instantly and their heads were dizzy. Especially when they saw the scenery passing by quickly outside, they felt waves of vomiting coming over them.

The five of them couldn't tell who was worse off. Everyone had their teeth grimaced, obviously having been tortured to death.

Originally, Li Qiushan and the others thought that no matter how miserable they were, at least they were not the last one. After all, the new girl in their department might have been scared to tears.

However, when they got used to it a little bit and turned their heads to look over, they saw Qiu Jiang holding onto the window hook with one hand and tightly grasping the back of the seat with the other, with her legs spread apart to maintain stability. Although her face was a little pale, she did not lose control of her expression like them, and she sat much more steadily than them.

For a moment, the four of them felt a little pain on their faces. They gritted their teeth and adjusted their posture, trying hard to look as if they were not affected at all.

At this time, at the last red light intersection entering the tunnel, Chen Da's wish to rush forward was dashed, and he braked suddenly in frustration.

At the same time, they were thrown forward violently and bounced back. Everyone either hit the back of the chair or the glass. For a moment, they couldn't tell which part of their chest or back was hurting so much that they just wanted to curse.

On the other hand, although Qiu Jiang was also in a mess, she was still able to turn the situation around in the shortest time. Looking at the distorted faces of others, she didn't even have to think about her own expression.

I can't even beat a little girl.

"Fuck, that's embarrassing."

The four of them felt a burning pain on their faces and were so embarrassed that they didn't dare to complain to Chen Da. They quietly moved their bodies to appear normal.

At this moment, the red light turned into yellow, and then turned into a refreshing green. Chen Da, with sharp eyes, sprinted two seconds before the light changed, successfully making them feel the push on the back again. Fortunately, this time they had some experience and were not as miserable as before.

When they gritted their teeth and reached their destination, they saw that there were quite a few police cars parked around. Not only did many brothers from their Anlu District and other districts near Nanshan of the Municipal Bureau come, but there were even many armed police.

At this moment, everyone had their guns loaded. Some rushed directly into the woods of Nanshan, while others drove police cars quickly along the mountain road.

This battle...

Even though they didn't know what had happened, they guessed that this was a big deal, and a sense of foreboding hung over everyone's heart.

In fact, their premonition was correct. After Chen Da briefly explained the situation to them, their brains were about to explode.

"What?! Prison break???"

After hearing them repeat themselves, the furrows between Chen Da's brows deepened. He emphasized again and again, "On the way to transport the thirteen prisoners, they seized guns and attacked the police. Three police officers were shot dead and two were seriously injured. They later fled to Nanshan. Five have been apprehended so far, and eight are still roaming the mountains. We must recapture them as soon as possible to prevent them from fleeing to other cities. It will be difficult to find them then."

"Others will be sent out after they arrive at the station, but we must take charge now and not let the situation escalate, understand? -"

Chen Da knew how difficult this task was, but there was no other way. He had to move forward no matter how difficult it was.

Wang Ziyi and the others were horrified, but they still responded loudly.

"clear--"

Among these powerful voices, a delicate voice was particularly obvious. When Chen Da saw her, he was obviously annoyed. He didn't notice her before coming, so he was deeply entangled at this moment.

"Qiu Jiang, if you are afraid, just stay at the foot of the mountain and help set up the cordon." He spoke without much hesitation.

"I'm not afraid—" Qiu Jiang's dark eyes sparkled in the car. Her voice was firm and persistent as she pleaded loudly, "Captain Chen, I request to move with everyone. Please approve—"

After all, she was just a trainee police officer. He had not thought highly of her before, so he had not paid much attention to her. Therefore, he did not know her shooting performance in the police academy. Moreover, real combat was different from the training in the police academy, so it was not the time for her to go on the battlefield immediately. However, he was quite satisfied with her spirit.

"Chen Feng, the four of you follow me out of the car."

The car door slammed several times, making a lingering wailing sound, and five people got out of the car one after another.

Qiu Jiang watched them walk away nervously, afraid that she would be left behind, so she followed them and stood by the car. If she hadn't seen Chen Da contact the Municipal Bureau and immediately return after leaving the four people behind, she would probably have followed them.

"Get in the car--" Chen Da ordered.

"yes--"

Qiu Jiang smiled and quickly jumped into the car. Then Chen Da suddenly started the car. The wheels rubbed violently against the wet mud, splashing countless mud spots. Amidst continuous roars, they quickly rushed up the dirt road in the mountains and then drove away.

During the driving interval, Chen Da was still keeping an eye on all sides, which really affected his efficiency. He directly issued instructions, "I'll be on the left, you'll be on the right. Look carefully. If you spot anyone, tell them immediately."

"yes--"

Qiu Jiang strictly followed the order, glancing to the right without blinking the entire time, unwilling to miss any suspicious movement.

Nanshan Highway and dirt roads are intertwined and extend in all directions. Police from different groups can only act separately to ensure that there is no possibility of criminals escaping from any direction.

The road that Chen Da and his team were responsible for was the most likely route for the prisoners to escape to the mountain, but no one knew which road the prisoners took afterwards. They could only grope along this road to find out. As for other roads that they could not take into account, they had to leave it entirely to their colleagues. Fortunately, everyone had walkie-talkies and could exchange information at any time.

"A person has been spotted fleeing eastwards from the land temple on the mountainside. Requesting support, requesting support."

"We'll be there soon, we'll be there soon." Chen Da quickly drove into a rugged intersection. The car swayed from side to side and its speed increased a lot.

Qiu Jiang didn't have much experience riding in a car. It was fine when she was driving on the road just now, but now the car was shaking like the trembling legs of a woman in her seventies or eighties. She finally couldn't control her nausea. She could only grit her teeth and endure the churning in her throat, strictly carrying out her observation task.

Nanshan is a mountainous area with an excellent ecological environment, shaded by lush green trees. Although most trees have lost their leaves due to the cold weather, the branches are still there, crisscrossing and intertwining, and there are also many lush plants that easily block the view.

In such an environment, it is very easy for a person to hide. If Qiu Jiang did not have good eyesight and was not familiar with the movements in the mountains because he often went in and out of the woods, he would probably not have noticed the figure that blended in with the withered plants.

"Captain Chen, there's something unusual two hundred meters to the right."

Qiu Jiang reported the situation decisively.

Chen Da's eyes quickly turned to the location she mentioned, and sure enough, he could clearly see something moving quickly over there. After a simple prediction, he immediately drove into the overgrown bushes.

The closer you get, the more obvious the other person's striped prison uniform becomes.

Chen Da immediately reported the situation to others, and at the same time he increased his speed a bit, trying his best to get closer to the man. The branches hit the car body fiercely, and the harsh sound attracted the man's attention.

He became even more panicked and ran without knowing where to go. He was tripped by branches several times, but he hurriedly got up and continued running.

This thorny road not only blocked Chen Da and his team, but also obviously hindered the prisoners' movements. However, after all, they were driving a car, and the gap in strength between them and their feet was too great.

As they stepped on the accelerator desperately, the distance between the two sides kept getting closer and closer, until the car's tire burst with a violent creak, and this good situation came to an abrupt end.

"Fuck, they're really bad at the right time. I'll chase them, you find a place to hide." He cursed, gave a simple instruction, and jumped out of the car without hesitation to chase after them.

"Captain Chen—"

Qiu Jiang shouted, and clearly saw the other person's figure getting farther and farther away from her, and she couldn't suppress her anxiety in her heart.

After about three or five minutes, she witnessed the strength of the old detective. She saw Chen Da picked up a piece of something that was not sure whether it was a stone or a piece of mud, and threw it forward with quick eyes and hands.

“Ahhhh—”

The man screamed and fell to the ground. Chen Da took the opportunity to catch up with him and stomped on him hard. A shrill and creepy scream came from under his feet. However, Chen Da had no sympathy at all. He fiercely turned the man's hand away and gave him a pair of silver handcuffs.

Seeing that everything was settled, Qiu Jiang clenched his fists and slashed them twice. His face couldn't help but relax and he showed a big sweet smile.

"Captain Chen, Li..."

Qiu Jiang had just finished boasting when he suddenly looked towards the hillside. He discerned the man's movements and immediately shouted, "There's a gun, be careful!!!"

“Pah pah pah——”

The continuous sound of gunfire broke through the air and tore his eardrums. Chen Da nimbly lay on the ground, rolled to the side, hid in the pit and carefully observed the movement.

Suddenly, the branches of the bushes beside him were knocked down by bullets one after another. Fortunately, he dodged in time and missed the bullets. However, the captured prisoner was not so lucky. He rolled on the ground and howled.

"Leg, leg, my leg is injured, help me, help me--"

He cried and shouted. The man on the mountain fired the gun and immediately ran away faster than a monkey. Chen Da had no time to chase him. He could only watch him run away without a trace.

“Oh no!”

He struggled to climb out of the pit and was about to chase the person when he saw a blurry shadow passing by not far away. He was shocked and confused, not sure if the figure was the person he thought, so he quickly turned his head to look at the car.

At this time, there was no one to be seen near the car. Instead, a police car from another team arrived, and many colleagues got off, but the person he was looking for was nowhere to be seen.

Chen Da suddenly panicked and looked towards the hillside with bloodshot eyes.

"Qiu Jiang——"
