After listening to Ning Zhiheng's words, Mrs. Yang began to describe the man's physical characteristics in detail. Ning Zhiheng then took out a piece of white paper and a paintbrush and began to carefully sketch and depict according to Mrs. Yang's description.
Unfortunately, Mrs. Yang did not have a deep impression of the man. Although Ning Zhiheng's painting skills were excellent, the witness's memory of the target's appearance was indeed vague. As a result, it took a long time to draw a portrait of the person, which was not ideal. According to Mrs. Yang, it was only about 70 or 80% similar. However, the height and clothing were more accurate, and the person was about 1.7 meters tall, which was an average height.
After finishing the painting, Ning Zhiheng put down his paper and pen, smiled and said to the Yang couple, "I am very sorry to have bothered you for so long. However, I would like to ask you to keep this a secret and not tell any outsiders, so as not to cause trouble for yourselves."
Since being invited here, Mr. and Mrs. Yang knew that this matter was not simple. After hearing Ning Zhiheng's special instructions, they naturally agreed and promised repeatedly that they would not talk about it to outsiders. Only then did Ning Zhiheng ask Sun Jiacheng to send Mr. and Mrs. Yang back.
Ning Zhiheng pondered carefully in his office. He picked up the portrait in front of him and examined it for a long time. To be honest, this was the most unsatisfactory portrait he had ever drawn.
The person in the portrait is not particularly striking, and their facial features are not very distinctive. This is because the person's appearance is very ordinary, and Mrs. Yang's description is also very unclear. If you were to show such a portrait to your subordinates and ask them to find the person based on it, the success rate would not be very high.
Furthermore, the man's clothes were a tattered short shirt, which is not reliable, as he must have been disguised to gather information. He would never dress like this under normal circumstances, so it has no value.
As for his height, it's the average height of an ordinary man, the kind you see everywhere on the street, and he's nothing special.
The painting turned out poorly this time, and Ning Zhiheng threw the paper on the table in frustration. It seemed he still needed to think of another way to find the man.
Logically, since these people have found his residence, they must have set up surveillance points nearby to observe his movements. However, the area is quite large. How should he proceed?
Drawing out suspicious areas and conducting a large-scale search, as was done last time, is one method, but it is not suitable.
The last arrest was made after confirming that there were people tracking them nearby. By sealing off a block, they were able to capture them all at once.
But this time, there was no specific target, and the area of suspicion was quite large. If we rashly launched a large-scale search, wouldn't we just alert the enemy if we didn't manage to catch them in the net?
My only advantage right now is that the enemy hasn't realized that I'm on guard yet. This allows me to catch them off guard, find their fatal weaknesses, and strike them down decisively.
But if he alerted them and failed to bring them into the search area, making them wary and causing them to lie in wait, it would be difficult to find them again. At that point, wouldn't he have to be on guard against someone targeting him every day? Just thinking about it, with a gun pointed at his head at any moment, gave Ning Zhiheng a terrible headache. Could it be that he would be unable to move an inch? It seemed that he had to find an effective way to find his opponent as soon as possible.
Just then, a knock sounded at the door. Ning Zhiheng called out, "Come in!" and Huo Yueze, the captain of the second action team, entered.
Huo Yueze was overjoyed. Today he was finally promoted to the rank of colonel. When he heard the news, he was stunned for a long time.
After years of hard work and struggle to reach the rank of captain, he unexpectedly joined the Fourth Action Group and in less than three months successfully entered the ranks of field-grade officers, completing the most crucial step in his career.
Huo Yueze was deeply grateful to his team leader, Ning Zhiheng. This young boss was decisive and had a sharp and unique vision. In the past few months, he had made frequent moves and achieved remarkable results. He also praised Huo Yueze in his report, which ultimately helped Huo Yueze succeed.
Huo Yueze stepped forward, stood at attention, gave Ning Zhiheng a standard military salute, and said sincerely, "Team leader, today Yueze's wish has finally come true, and I have been promoted. I am able to achieve this today all thanks to the team leader's cultivation!"
"You flatter me!" Ning Zhiheng laughed heartily, took two quick steps to Huo Yueze, and patted him on the shoulder affectionately. "Yuize, you've worked hard for many years, and you should have been promoted long ago based on your seniority. I was just helping you out a bit. It's all thanks to your own hard work."
Huo Yueze didn't take Ning Zhiheng's polite words seriously. If promotion could be achieved solely based on seniority, would he have remained a captain for so many years? In the end, it was because he followed the right person.
After expressing his gratitude, Ning Zhiheng gestured for Huo Yueze to sit down on the sofa. The two sat facing each other, and Ning Zhiheng asked, "Yueze, you are now a major, so it's a bit of a waste for you to continue as an action team leader. I think Deputy Director Huang will also consider this. After all, rank is one thing, but more importantly, it's about real power. Our Baoding faction's strength in the Military Intelligence Investigation Department is still insufficient. I think Deputy Director Huang will arrange a new position for you in a while. Our time working together won't be long."
Huo Yueze quickly said, "Team leader, I understand, but I still want to learn more from you."
Ning Zhiheng waved his hand and smiled slightly. Huo Yueze's words were just a polite remark. A soldier who doesn't want to be a general isn't a good soldier. Who would be willing to be subordinate to someone else and not want better career prospects?
Huo Yueze's military rank is already high enough for him to seek a position with better career prospects, but these are things that Deputy Director Huang should worry about.
