Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1268: Chapter 1269: Feint in the East, Attack in the West

”Report, no finished firearms or ammunition were found.”

”Report, a large amount of cash and gold bars were found...”

”Report...”

Qi Taiguo listened to the reports coming in one by one, but there was no news of a large batch of contraband. His brow furrowed as he saw the person lying under the stairs. With a sharp look in his eyes, he walked over.

The Mouse was still groaning as he clutched his leg. Qi Taiguo came over, grabbed him by the collar: ”Tell me, were you planning to ship tonight? Was it the Loo Family’s goods?”

Mouse’s eyes flickered, and Qi Taiguo caught it, pressing him further: ”Where is that batch of goods?”

”What goods, I don’t know.”

Battalion Commander Jiang approached. He had already investigated outside and found that the items being loaded onto the truck were just some canned goods and toys. Those people claimed the toy guns were also there on consignment; it was simply ridiculous.

”We’ve already got everyone under control, but we haven’t found that batch of goods,” Battalion Commander Jiang said.

They had taken control of the people and busted this factory, but without a large amount of finished goods, just some scattered components—they might get sentenced, but the crime wouldn’t be deemed too severe since the stolen goods weren’t there.

”Speak.” Qi Taiguo punched him, then thought of something and asked, ”Did you capture two people?”

Mouse paused, not saying anything, but Qi Taiguo kept his focus and asked, ”Where are they? Speak, where are they?” He stomped on the spot where Mouse had been shot, grinding mercilessly.

”Dead, they’re all dead!” Mouse howled.

Qi Taiguo’s face grew darker, and he applied more pressure: ”Speak or not!”

Battalion Commander Jiang watched and said, ”Deputy Battalion Commander Qi, he’s a witness!” meaning not to kill him, but he also felt puzzled about who these people were and something felt odd.

At this moment, someone brought over the sorted account book from the ground, handing it to Battalion Commander Jiang. He flipped through it, face changing slightly, and passed it to Qi Taiguo.

Qi Taiguo glanced at it and became more determined. It was the transaction record between this military factory and the Loo Family. With this, even if the Loo Family didn’t go down, they wouldn’t escape unscathed.

”We still need to find that batch of goods...” Battalion Commander Jiang said. To convict thoroughly, they needed to catch them in the act with the evidence.

After all, to catch a thief, you need the stolen goods.

But Qi Taiguo’s mind was on Ning Ge, as he clutched Mouse’s throat: ”Tell me, where are those people? Where are the goods?”

Battalion Commander Jiang’s brow tightened; Deputy Battalion Commander Qi seemed a bit mad!

”Shuishui...” Mouse finally couldn’t endure anymore, and as he was about to faint, said, ”In the water dungeon, don’t know if they’re dead!”

”Where’s the water dungeon?”

”The underground basement.”

”And the goods?”

”Don’t know. We only make them. How they’re transported is their own business!” Mouse saw Qi Taiguo raise his fist and hurriedly shouted: ”They took it two hours ago!”

Battalion Commander Jiang’s face changed; two hours ago, no vehicles had been seen coming or going on the main road.

”Battalion Commander Jiang, we must immediately notify all outposts to seal off all exits of Guicheng and thoroughly check every vehicle,” Qi Taiguo said.

Battalion Commander Jiang nodded.

Qi Taiguo thought for a moment, if the goods were taken hours ago, but Jiang Dafang was notified at four a.m., it was a diversion to mislead them. But if they’re planning long-distance transport, there’s always a risk; momentary confusion is of no use as inspections at checkpoints still carry risk.

But what if they’re not taking the road?

”Where’s the map?” Qi Taiguo got a map of Guicheng and studied it carefully, his eyes narrowing again: ”The waterways, Battalion Commander Jiang, they might be taking the waterways. Notify the navy to assist immediately.”

Battalion Commander Jiang looked at the map he was pointing to, quickly understanding the key points, and swiftly went to make arrangements.
