After having dinner with the Ning family elders, Jiang Qiao and his wife strolled out and took some things to Song Zhi's house. Cheng Yingli's mother was sick, her third aunt had gone back to her hometown to take care of the elderly, and Song Yuan had gone to the countryside. Relying on these two men would probably be a stretch.
However, to her surprise, there were other people at Song Zhi's house. Chen Fang and Liu Zhanyu were there, and there were snacks on the table. The three of them were drinking together.
"Hey, I've arrived at the perfect time! I brought you some food. What brings you two here? I was just about to look for you. This saves me the trouble. Where are Brother Song and the other two?"
Liu Zhanyu gave a wry smile. "He went to arrest people himself. I don't know if he can find them. The two of us will stay here and wait for his news so we can provide support."
Jiang Qiao, tell me, where could this lone wolf possibly run off to?
Jiang Qiao shook her head. "I'm not a lone wolf, how would I know where he ran? Tell me, where did this lone wolf hide before?"
Speaking of this, Song Zhi got up and brought a map, which he opened on the table. Liu Zhanyu pointed out two places to Jiang Qiao.
"This is the place he lived in before, and this is the place he lived in later. We were just a step too late. Judging from the situation at the house, he left in a hurry, so we don't know where he will hide next."
Jiang Qiao stared at the map, resting her chin on her hand, studying it intently for a long time.
"Good heavens, it's not far from us, at the border of two provinces. This guy is really good at hiding. But since you managed to sneak over there, I don't think he can have gone too far."
People have seen his name and face; you have a portrait of him, right?
Chen Fang nodded. "Yes, but this can't compare to the photo."
Jiang Qiao smiled faintly, "Something is better than nothing. Besides, we should trust the judgment and vigilance of the people around us. Lone Wolf isn't stupid; he should have considered this."
I think he wouldn't go to crowded places, nor would he go to sparsely populated areas.
Chen Fang countered, "Where could he hide? In some remote, uninhabited place? With Lone Wolf like that, how would he survive?"
Ning Hao has been with Jiang Qiao for so many years, so he understands his wife's thoughts to some extent.
"Section Chief Chen, have you ever thought about what 'blind spots under the lamp' means?"
Liu Zhanyu's mind raced, and he slapped his thigh. "Old Chen, hurry up and make a call to have our people check the detention center and prison! Damn it, how could we not have thought of that? Quick, quick, quick—"
Upon hearing this, Chen Fang immediately realized what was going on. He gave Jiang Qiao and his wife a thumbs up, then turned around, grabbed Song Zhijia's phone, and started dialing out one by one.
Song Zhi was stunned by the incredible actions of these people. What was going on? Lone Wolf had escaped to prison, so why did they need to catch him?
Faced with Song Zhi's doubts, Ning Hao explained, "His going in is different from when Sato went in. If Lone Wolf chooses to go in, he must have someone inside to meet him. Otherwise, what do you think? He went in and couldn't come out. Wouldn't that be a joke?"
He's not that stupid; it's most likely not a major mistake, and he can stay in the detention center for a while. As for prison, that's probably unlikely; after all, leaving that place is extremely difficult.
Chen Fang nodded as he made the call, "That's right, that's exactly it."
Jiang Qiao sighed, "That's just our guess. Whether it's true or not, we'll only know when we meet him in person. Hopefully, this guy will do as we expect."
No one could have imagined that Jiang Qiao's words would completely drive Lone Wolf to his doom.
Lone Wolf never expected that his supposedly foolproof plan would be exposed so easily, nor did he expect that his men would arrive so quickly. By the time they tried to notify him, it was too late.
Song Shutian was nearby. After receiving the report from Chen Fang and his team, he carefully analyzed the situation and headed straight for their target.
The lone wolf's accomplice tried to tip him off, but unfortunately, he didn't escape Song Shutian's notice and was taken down immediately.
When Song Shutian saw Lone Wolf curled up asleep on the bed, he was filled with mixed emotions. After so many years, he had finally caught the mastermind behind it all.
Lone Wolf was half asleep, but when he opened his eyes, his hands were already handcuffed. The sight of these people in front of him made him break out in a cold sweat.
Song Shutian's hawk-like eyes were fixed on the other person, and his icy tone made Lone Wolf feel a chill run down his spine.
"Tan Jiachang, Lone Wolf, it's been a long time. Your end has come. Take him away—"
Tan Chia-chang's instinctive reaction was, "I'm not—"
Song Shutian coldly looked at the other party and said, "Whether you are or not is not up to you to decide. When you see your subordinates, you can tell them who you are yourself!"
At this moment, Lone Wolf was like a stray dog, too weak to even walk. He was dragged out by someone. As Song Shutian walked out the door and looked at the starry sky, tears almost welled up in his eyes.
After so many years of relentless pursuit, the person they had been searching for has finally been brought to justice. Their efforts were not in vain, and the blood shed by Jiang Qiao and the others was not shed for nothing.
Song Shutian immediately sent the news of Lone Wolf's arrest to Jiang Qiao.
Jiang Qiao, who was about to rest, couldn't help but burst into tears after seeing his call. She had been fighting against Lone Wolf and her third uncle since she was a teenager, and she had been fighting all this time. Finally, her efforts had not been in vain, and the old man had finally been caught.
When Ning Hao came in after washing up, he saw his wife wiping away tears.
"What's wrong? It's such a joyous day, why are you crying? Who upset you?"
Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "Haozi, Lone Wolf has been arrested. We don't have to live in fear anymore—"
Ning Hao looked at Jiang Qiao in surprise, "Really, they really arrested him?"
Jiang Qiao nodded vigorously with tears in her eyes. "Brother Song just sent a telegram. It's true. To be honest, I don't know how to express my feelings right now. I'm both happy and excited."
Ning Hao pulled Jiang Qiao aside with a serious expression, but what he said was truly embarrassing and infuriating: "That's easy, I'll help you express these feelings—"
I was originally planning to call Song Shutian back, but Ning Hao's actions made me sleep soundly until dawn.
Ning Hao gets up early, and Jiang Qiao has to admire his stamina; the difference between men and women is too obvious.
"You're awake. I've already prepared the food. Get up and eat quickly, we need to catch the train. Your uncle and the others are still waiting for us over there."
Jiang Qiao knew she was in a hurry, and she wasn't a slowpoke anyway. She quickly got ready, had dinner with Ning Hao, and the two of them packed up and set off.
Upon seeing Zhou Baorui again, even Jiang Qiao couldn't help but sigh that time is a cruel mistress. Four years ago, Jing Lan was still quite young, but when they met again, wrinkles had appeared at the corners of her eyes.
