The group then walked together toward the two stacks of straw.

Sure enough, the situation was discovered very quickly.

Beneath two tall stacks of straw, they saw signs that someone had been there.

It's now obvious that while the militia were conducting a thorough search in the mountains behind the village, the enemy was hiding right under their noses.

this……

Su He and the others exchanged glances, unsure of what to say.

This is what they mean by "blind spot under the lamp"!

It seems this prisoner is quite capable.

After figuring it out, Su He and his group went to the captain of the local militia team to get more information.

At this time, the militia was a semi-official organization with great power in the local area, but it could only govern the local villages. Its main responsibilities were to strengthen the village's armed forces and manage the behavior of some villagers.

Sometimes the militia even has the right to handle petty theft in the village, and they will only go to the police station if they can't handle it themselves.

The militia captain they found this time was the veteran they mentioned before.

After hearing their purpose, he explained the arrangements they had made over the past few days.

Su He discovered that they had recently made arrangements in various villages nearby, and even in those families they thought might be targeted, traps had been set up in advance, with people secretly watching them.

Even so, the criminals still managed to commit the crime right under their noses.

Hearing this, Su He and the others did not look too good.

Afterwards, they contacted the local police station and carefully inquired about the appearance of the perpetrator as described by the victim.

According to the victim, the perpetrator was tall and had a fierce appearance. He always appeared naked and would disappear quickly after he finished.

Afterwards, Su He and the others also saw the portrait drawn by the police station based on the victim's description.

After reading it, the group exchanged glances.

"Are you sure someone really looks like that?" Su He asked hesitantly.

Hu Xing was also somewhat skeptical. "These are almost identical to the door gods we used to have in my hometown! Are they really that scary?"

Others were also skeptical, saying, "If someone really looks like that, wouldn't they be easily recognized?"

When the police officer at the local police station heard what they said, he said helplessly, "But all the victims said the same thing. When we showed them the drawing, they were so scared that they covered their eyes. It's probably true."

Su He frowned slightly upon hearing this.

"Have all the victims been asked?"

The police officer at the local police station shook his head. "No, many victims are unwilling to come forward because they feel ashamed. In fact, we suspect that the number of cases may be far more than this, but some people have chosen to keep quiet."

Su He and the others fell silent after hearing this.

After learning about it, they went back.

However, once back in the office, everyone started to worry.

"We have absolutely no clue. The police station has investigated everything they could and made all the necessary arrangements. So how can we possibly investigate further?"

Qi Yang thought for a moment and said, "The scope of the crimes is too large and there is no pattern to it. We can't make arrangements in advance. I think we should hand it over to the local militia team, just like the police station did. After all, they are locals and can keep an eye on things at any time."

Su He nodded. "Let's leave it at that for now. We can only wait for the criminal to reappear. But we can't completely ignore it. We need to carefully review the cases we reported earlier and see if there are any similarities."

"good"

...

However, for a long time afterward, Su He and his team made no progress, and the perpetrator did not commit any more crimes. Just then, a new case came up in the team, so they put this case aside and went to work on the new case.
