Different World Card Master: Change the World with Cards

42: searchMeanwhile, after seeing Xu Bai off, Meng Zhong continued to arrange for the next person to be questioned.

If you’re going to put on a show, you have to go all the way. If they stopped halfway through the questioning, even a ghost would know where the information came from.

He arranged for his own people to conduct the questioning, partly to keep all the intelligence in his own hands, and partly to let others know that he suspected an internal spy, and wondered if the spy would reveal any clues.

Because the team patrolling that street today was held up by something, and it just so happened that the incident occurred at that time, it was hard not to suspect collusion with someone inside.

”Boss, which team do you suspect?”

Hearing Wang Wenlong, his teammate of many years, ask, Meng Zhong smiled.

”It’s either the Second Team or the Fourth Team.”

”Oh, no wonder this afternoon you assigned one team to run errands and notify, and another team to escort the eyewitness.”

”Yes, both of these tasks involve acting together. Even if there’s betrayal, an entire team wouldn’t betray. But there’s one thing I didn’t expect—”

”You mean Mr. Xu, right?”

”Yes, I really didn’t expect anyone to see a suspicious person.”

”Who would have thought that an ordinary person eating barbecue would pay attention to others? And when something happened upfront, most people would be focused on the robbers, that’s much more exciting! Who would pay attention to people nearby?”

”Yes, and two more points: first, he is a Card Maker with superb drawing skills, helping us draw a portrait; second, he observed others without being noticed, which means the robbers won’t escape in a hurry but will hide in a place according to their original plan.”

”Yes, we just need to search carefully, and we should find them very soon.”

”Hmm, Wenlong, our chance to achieve great merit has come.”

The two looked at each other and smiled...

”Li Yong, have you found anything?”

”Not yet, Captain.”

”Liu Lishi, have you found anything?”

”No, Captain.”

”Wait a moment.” Ruan Cong stopped his teammates and fell into deep thought.

Where would the robbers hide?

First, the possibility of ordinary people is still relatively small, because the search efforts are extensive, and there’s nowhere to store the stolen goods.

So, they must be hiding in a rich family’s home or an official location.

Right, these items are quite valuable, but truly wealthy families wouldn’t risk it for such a small amount of money, and their security isn’t to be trifled with, making it difficult to infiltrate.

That leaves only declining families and official places as the most likely possibilities.

”Let’s go search the Wang family and the Shen family.”

Ruan Cong confirmed the search locations. As for official places, he didn’t have the authority, so he would leave that to the general captain; he believed the boss would have arranged for people to search there from the start.

Having confirmed their destination, the three walked quickly...

”Stop!” Ruan Cong held down the woman beneath him, shouting at the man running ahead.

Of course, the other party didn’t stop. They were only temporary companions; when disaster struck, it was every man for himself. One less person meant more for him.

Unfortunately, before he could climb over the wall, he was tackled by Liu Lishi, who had been lying in wait.

He struggled fiercely, but the person on top of him was too strong, and he couldn’t break free.

Liu Lishi saw that the other party was still struggling, so he dislocated the person’s arm and handcuffed him.

Returning to the Wang family with the person, everyone in the Wang family was already handcuffed by Li Yong. It was fortunate they had cardss, otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to bring so many handcuffs.
