Having made the decision, the young man began making the necessary arrangements.

To get to Taiwan, you first have to go to the southern provinces.

So he lingered at the train station, unable to buy a train ticket because he didn't have a letter of introduction.

So he needs to get a train ticket first.

Finally, he selected a cadre who was going to the southern province to make purchases. He lured the man to a secluded spot outside the station, killed him, obtained his identity and ticket, and then boarded the train.

Meanwhile, in Beijing, after the researchers and soldiers went missing, a vigorous search was launched. Then, an eyewitness said that he saw several people hurrying around in the vicinity that day, which seemed very suspicious.

So the police began to search for these people based on the eyewitness accounts.

Originally, because the young man had managed to get his brothers to hide in time, and now there are no surveillance cameras, it's difficult for the police to find them.

But just then, one of his brothers got the money and couldn't wait to spend it. As a result, he got into a fight with someone in the department store because he didn't have a ticket, and was then recognized by one of the witnesses.

The person immediately reported it to the police, and the man was arrested very quickly.

After being arrested, the man thought that their murder had been discovered, so he took the initiative to say that he did not do it and that he was only doing it on the orders of his boss.

The police immediately asked him what he had done.

This man was somewhat clever; when the police asked him this question, he guessed that they probably didn't know much, so he simply told them about the robbery and didn't mention the murder.

They said they snatched the man's bag when he wasn't looking, and then, fearing they would be caught, they knocked him unconscious and threw him far away.

The police were initially skeptical, but the guy had a great attitude. He kept giving the same answer after being asked several times, and he even acted very scared. He explained the details of the process very clearly, and his goal was to get a reduced sentence.

Seeing how cowardly he was, the police didn't think he was the type to kill, so they genuinely assumed that they had robbed the researchers and then abandoned them. The soldiers who were protecting him, after rescuing the researchers and not seeing him, assumed he was missing and went out to look for him.

As for why the two of them eventually disappeared, they didn't know, but they suspected that they might have encountered enemy agents.

Therefore, we need to continue the investigation. In addition, we need to find the boss he mentioned immediately. After all, according to him, the research data was stolen by them and is still in the boss's hands, so we need to catch that person as soon as possible.

Therefore, the police began arresting people based on the physical descriptions provided by witnesses and the arrested person.

But by then the young man had already boarded the train, making him difficult to catch.

Later, based on the information from the previous person, they caught a petty hoodlum who had returned to his hometown.

However, since they had already exchanged statements when they separated and knew that they would all die if they revealed the murder, this thug only talked about the robbery when he was arrested, and the process was basically the same as the previous person's.

Therefore, the police completely believed what they said.

However, in order to divert attention and to express their remorse to the police, the second thug arrested also mentioned that their leader, a young man, had casually asked about the situation in Nan Province before they parted ways, possibly indicating that they were going there.

The police officer took the conversation very seriously and said, "Then ask him if there's any other information."

However, the thugs all said they didn't know.

In fact, he didn't say this because he wanted the police to catch him. After all, in his mind, their boss was very powerful and smart, and he figured he had probably already run far away and would definitely not be caught.
