“Yes, yes, this person is very easy to talk to, has a very good temper, and looks like a scholar!” another coachman chimed in.
The remaining driver was in the same situation and nodded repeatedly.
"Do you remember where you got on and where you got off? Point them out to me one by one!" Ning Zhiheng said.
The drivers immediately began to explain the situation, saying that they had all come to pick up Dong Chengjie near the entrance of Liushu Hutong, but the drop-off point was different!
Finally, Ning Zhiheng summarized on paper that the drop-off points were: five times at the intersection of Gulou Street, twice at Erdaoqiao, once at Xinhekou, once at the moat, and so on!
Looking at the statistics, Ning Zhiheng said, "The place where Dong Chengjie got off the bus most often is the intersection of Gulou Street. I think it's a place he frequents, and his cover-up work is very likely in this area! Let's go take a look!"
Half an hour later, Ning Zhiheng and his group arrived at the intersection of Gulou Street.
Seeing the endless stream of pedestrians and vehicles, and the congested streets, everyone was in a bit of a predicament. This Dong Chengjie was too cunning. As long as he got off at this location, he would soon disappear into the crowd, making it too difficult to track him down!
The intersection of Gulou Street is a major traffic junction, with roads leading in all directions, making it impossible to determine which direction to pursue the investigation.
Ning Zhiheng was also having a headache. He looked back at the three rickshaw pullers and said to Liu Yong, "There's no other way. Now we can only resort to the clumsy method of staking out. Find some of your rickshaw pullers, no more than ten at most. Too many people will be too conspicuous!"
"Choose someone quick-witted, someone who can remember the likeness in the photo. Have them stake out here, and assign someone to every intersection. Cast a wide net; you're specifically in charge of this!"
Liu Yong quickly accepted the order. This wasn't the first time he'd done something like this. Last time, he had followed Ning Zhiheng and organized his rickshaw pullers to follow Lin Mucheng for more than ten days, contributing a lot. He was experienced this time!
"I'll go back and select people right away. Are you satisfied with the people we used last time?" Liu Yong asked for instructions.
“Good, those guys did a good job last time, they are experienced. These three must be selected. They have a clearer understanding of Dong Chengjie and can recognize him more quickly!” Ning Zhiheng said, pointing to the three rickshaw pullers.
He then added, "Teach your men more. If they spot the target, don't alert him. Just follow him from a distance. Report back to me immediately when you find his location! Give a generous reward to the first person to discover Dong Chengjie!"
Liu Yong quickly nodded in agreement!
Ning Zhiheng then asked Liu Datong, "You also need to keep a close eye on the news on the streets. You and Liu Yong cannot slack off. We have no other leads right now, so we can only start from these two directions. It all depends on you two!"
Liu Datong quickly replied, "Commander Ning, don't worry, I've already deployed all my men! I absolutely dare not slack off in the slightest!"
