Chapter 12 Chapter Ten Phantom Chase

Everyone was speechless for a moment as they watched the sandstorm storming through the floor-to-ceiling windows. There were short and hurried communications in the hall one after another. "Report, Blue 2 lost its target!" "Report, Blue 19 lost track of the target!" "Report! The wind and sand are too strong, and the snipers can't lock the target position!" It turned out that this was what the other party was waiting for!In a sandstorm like this, all surveillance equipment and snipers are rendered useless. "Don't panic! Rely on infrared detection and wave-phase particle equipment to continue tracking the opponent's movements!" Xu Dongqing ordered decisively.

"Infrared detection is on!" "The particle device is working!" "Infrared detection found that the target moved! Wait! How could this happen!" a staff member exclaimed. Xu Dongqing walked quickly to the front of the 3D display, and saw hundreds of white dots on it moving towards the outside of the airport along with the storm. "The wave phase equipment has been disturbed by strong fluctuations and has failed!" For a time, all tracking devices were disabled. Xu Dongqing stood in the middle of the hall expressionlessly, without saying a word, but his hands were tightly clenched into fists.He had expected in advance that it would be extremely difficult to deal with such a super-psychic combat unit, but he still didn't expect that when he really faced the opponent, he would be completely helpless and let the opponent swagger into the inner city of Beijing under his strict surveillance. .What a disgrace for a police officer!

"Xiao Yao, why do you think infrared monitoring can detect so many heat sources?" Thangka said solemnly. "It's very simple..." Xiao Ya said slowly, "Have you forgotten Mary Alexandra? Her ability is to use super thoughts to rub air to generate high-temperature flames. With her ability, she can make such a Hundreds of thermal virtual images are a breeze." "Then the interference of wave phase particles must be a good thing done by Elvis Presley? This guy's super power is strong sound waves!" Thangka said bitterly. Jiang Zhenchuan said suddenly: "Even if they enter the urban area, with the huge target of twelve of them, they can't completely cover up their tracks. This is our city after all!"

Everyone nodded and understood what he meant.After all, such a strange combination is eye-catching everywhere, and in an extremely densely populated city like Beijing, I am afraid that someone will notice them in less than ten minutes.At that time, they will naturally regain control of the opponent's whereabouts. Xu Dongqing and Xiao Shi didn't say anything.Both of them are deep and wise people, of course they understand that since the other party can cleverly use the sandstorm to escape the surveillance like a net, of course they will not easily expose their traces in the city. "Hey, where's the captain?" Fat Liu asked in surprise.

Everyone looked around, and sure enough, Ban Mingzhuo was no longer in the hall. "The captain has already chased him down..." Jiang Zhenchuan sighed. "Then what are we waiting for!" Thangka said anxiously. "It's useless for us to go!" Xiao Ya said in a rare intense tone, "Our super sense perception is effective in a range of less than 100 meters in such a sandstorm. How can we chase after it? Now, we can only go here Waiting for news from the captain..." As he spoke, he bit his lower lip tightly. The air in the hall was deathly stagnant. Ban Mingzhuo's tall and thin body was moving like a ghost in the sandstorm all over the sky. When he found out that the other party was trying to use the sandstorm to cover up his whereabouts, he had already realized that the measures he had prepared would not be effective.The only way left is to rely on super-sensing for tracking.Even in such a sandstorm, his super-psychic sensing range can reach about 500 meters, and he is confident that the opponent will not escape from his palm.Of course, this is also dangerous. Once the opponent's sensing ability is not inferior to his, it is very likely to find his tracking and attack him.No matter how confident he was, he would never be able to deal with these twelve super-psychic masters, not to mention that there was a "guide" among them whose ability was definitely not inferior to his - John Fodona!

etc?The other party seems to be just one person?Ban Mingzhuo felt a little puzzled, and then came to his senses: Yes, they must be planning to disperse into the urban area, and then regroup at a secret place agreed in advance, so as to avoid being noticed. However, this provides an excellent opportunity for my own tracking. As long as the other party is not a "guide", I have the confidence that I will not be discovered by the other party.I just don't know, which one of the twelve people is the other party?Judging from the sensed weight and breathing, it is certain that the other party is a man.

The figures of the two people were moving forward rapidly in the sandstorm, as fast as an arrow leaving the string, partly relying on their own telekinetic ability, and partly borrowing the power of the sandstorm.In less than ten minutes, downtown Beijing was in sight. Get off the Airport Highway, pass the Sanyuan Bridge, go up Dongzhimen Waixie Street, then Dongzhimen Inner Street, Andingmen East Street... Huh?He stopped?What the hell is this guy doing?Ban Mingzhuo also restrained his figure, closed his eyes, his heart was empty, and his telekinetic induction spread in all directions. Why did the other party stop?Nearby is the rendezvous location?No, it's too close to the airport, it's not safe for them.Well, it's likely that you stopped for personal reasons.Was there anything near here that attracted him?Where is he going?Lama Temple?Confucius Temple?Overseas Chinese Hotel?Wait, what is that place, is... the Capital Library?

Shao Dingzhong slowly closed the file on the table, stretched out his fingers, and massaged his red and swollen eyes due to long hours of work. A young female secretary carefully placed a cup of hot tea on the table. Shao Dingzhong raised his head and glanced at him: "It's Xiao Zhang, really, what are the people in the tea department doing? I need to trouble you to bring me tea, thank you." "The director works so hard, what's the matter if I pour you a cup of tea..." The female secretary blushed. "Silly girl, it's hard work to sit in an office. The real hard-working people in Beijing are the migrant workers from other places. They work hard to earn money and then send it back to their families. The family concept of thousands of years in China is only carried on by these people. It's a pity that the 41st one will be held, and the city will start to clean up again, and many people will lose their jobs like this..." Shao Dingzhong sighed.

"No, the chief is hard work!" The female secretary, Xiao Zhang, said seriously with a blushing face, "You haven't slept for eight hours in total in the past three days. Isn't this hard work?" Shao Dingzhong smiled wryly: "The National Security Bureau manages too many things, such as counterinsurgency, intelligence, law and order, anti-corruption, anti-riot, and anti-terrorism. It's a pity that we are not supposed to take care of them, and we can't take care of what we really want to take care of..." His voice deepened. "It's all under the control of the National Security Bureau!" The female secretary said with air, "So many corrupt officials have been arrested over the years, and everyone knows that it is our National Security Bureau's credit!"

"Oh? Really?" Shao Dingzhong suddenly became interested, turned around and asked the female secretary, "Tell me, we have arrested so many corrupt officials, why are there more and more corrupt officials?" "This..." the female secretary said hesitantly, "It's probably because people nowadays are more courageous than before!" Shao Dingzhong shook his head slowly: "No, it's because the arrest of those corrupt officials is only a temporary solution, but not the root cause. I arrest some corrupt officials as soon as I want, because those people's officials are small, or their roots are not deep enough, and their background is not strong enough. There are also some corrupt officials. , I can’t catch them even if I want to. When others see them, they know that as long as they learn from those people, they will not be afraid of being arrested. So the officials have to find the backstage to make connections. They have a network, one by one, one by one Pulling one, grabbing one will bring out the whole nest. This is what is meant by the so-called pulling one hair and moving the whole body. I have been the head of the National Security Bureau for so many years. Hundreds will be picked up. The number of corrupt officials arrested is close to 500, but of these 500 people, deputy positions account for 85%. Hmph! I'm tired of scratching...!" His eyes suddenly burst into boundless anger.

The female secretary said timidly: "Director, calm down first, there are so many corrupt officials anyway, you should catch them slowly, you can always catch fresh ones..." Shao Dingzhong couldn't help laughing out loud, patted her on the shoulder and said: "That's right, Xiao Zhang, we can always catch fresh ones, maybe right away..." As he spoke, his expression recovered. That confident and calm look. When the female secretary was slapped by him, she immediately blushed and rubbed the corners of her clothes with her hands, looking extremely cute. "By the way, tomorrow is the weekend and the Dragon Boat Festival. Do I have any plans? If not, it's time to go home." Shao Dingzhong asked. The female secretary woke up, took out a palm computer and pressed it a few times: "It's nothing else, but Commander Yu of the Beijing Military Region wants to invite you to play golf..." "Yu Dapao? What did he ask me to do?" Shao Dingzhong frowned, "Okay, I see, you go out first..." The female secretary responded, turned and walked out. "Wait a minute, Xiao Zhang..." Shao Dingzhong suddenly called out.The female secretary stopped in her tracks, waiting for his order. "Old Wu from the logistics department sent a basket of zongzi to Group A, and he said it was from me..." "Understood, Director." The female secretary agreed and turned to leave. Shao Dingzhong rested his chin with both hands, and fell into deep thought: Those guys from Ban Mingzhuo, I don't know what's going on now... Why is it the Capital Library?Ban Mingzhuo had doubts in his heart.Is this guy still a bookworm?It is not found that the members of the Doomsday Judgment have such a hobby.So why?No matter, let's follow up first. With a sigh of relief, he retracted his telekinesis and walked towards the library with big strides. The moment he walked into the lobby of the library, something moved in his heart and he caught something. Hundreds of computer terminals were placed in the spacious and tidy hall. Even in such a sandstorm, there were still many people sitting in front of the terminals wearing induction helmets to search for books or materials online. correct!The other party is likely to use the terminal here to surf the Internet. Could it be Howard Jones, the Internet killer nicknamed "Plague"?No, no, if the other party tried to use the Internet in vain, they would definitely not choose a place like the library to access the Internet.It is likely that it is only because of a temporary reason that the other party has to use the short and dangerous time when he is separated from his companion to go online.Who is it?What will happen? Ban Mingzhuo was thinking deeply, walking slowly in the hall, his leather shoes stepped on the marble floor, making a crisp sound. No? !No members of the Doomsday Inquisition!Is it my own judgment error?But no one left, that is to say, the other party was still in the library, but why did he suddenly disappear?Is the other party invisible?correct!It must be so!The other party is a "millionaire" with the ability to incarnate - Luther Astner!In other words, this famous financial fraudster probably had to operate online in a short period of time because of business needs.From the network of the Capital Library, you can connect to the New York stock market for direct transactions. This guy must be secretly acting alone.If it was really him, what would the other party look like now? Ban Mingzhuo stopped wandering, chose a seat near the gate and sat down.If your judgment is correct, the other party will get up and leave soon, and that will be a critical moment to prove whether your judgment is correct or not. A thin boy stood up and walked towards the door. Ban Mingzhuo lowered his eyes slightly, letting the boy pass by his side. The boy walked to the door and looked at the sandstorm outside, shook his head, and walked back. Another person approached, this time a middle-aged man, he hesitated at the door, then pushed the door and walked out. It seems likely that he came here in a speeding car, so he is not afraid of sandstorms. Within ten minutes, another five or six people passed by Ban Mingzhuo one after another, but he never looked up. When a middle-aged woman in a coat passed by him, a smile finally appeared on the corner of his lips. In the new center of Group A, Walnut watched Kang Yuner draw with wide eyes. What are these paintings?It was a big piece painted in green, and there were two ugly people standing on it, holding sticks in their hands.What is this one?It seems to be a big pillar, thick and black... I can't understand it... It's a pity that I have such a smart head... In the kitchen, Nian Xiaoru was washing rice clumsily.Lu Chanjuan kept pointing at her: "Okay, okay, don't fill up the water, pour it slowly, oops! Look, the rice has been washed away..." "Damn it! This is even more difficult than the homework of Group B! Why are they so disobedient?" Nian Xiaoru stared angrily at the pot of quiet rice. "Didn't you cook by yourself before?" Lu Chanjuan asked with a smile. "Of course I have done it!" Nian Xiaoru proudly said, "I used to cook all the rice at home, but the rice is very clean, so there is no need to wash it..." She scratched her head a little embarrassedly. "These are not ordinary rice, they are glutinous rice. Tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival. I thought that I should let everyone have a good meal..." Lu Chanjuan smiled softly. "Oh, rice dumplings are delicious. I like to eat them with dates. Do we have dates?" Nian Xiaoru asked expectantly. "It's already ready, little glutton!" Lu Chanjuan said, pointing her nose. Thinking of the scene where she was blocked by Lu Chanjuan in the kitchen last night, Nian Xiaoru smiled embarrassingly. "I don't know how Mingzhuo and the others are doing over there..." Lu Chanjuan murmured looking at the sandstorm outside the window. Ban Mingzhuo followed the middle-aged woman out of the library, keeping a distance of about fifty meters from her all the way. He didn't dare to use super-mind ability at such a short distance, otherwise, if the other party found out, all previous efforts would be wasted.And the other party has never used the super power, so it is difficult for him to sense the other party's traces from a long distance.The pursuit thus unfolded under another circumstance. The two of them walked up Andingmen East Street one after the other, and then turned into Beixiao Street, Dongzhimen Inner Street, and Beixinqiao Beijie Road. What is this guy going to do?Why are you going in circles?Did you find yourself?Yes, very likely.In this case, you have to start in advance!Ban Mingzhuo looked around. In the flying sand all over the sky, there were very few pedestrians, not even flying cars. That's right, it's a good time to do it, don't be afraid of hurting innocent people.he thought secretly. The middle-aged woman stopped suddenly in front of Lama Temple, bought a ticket and entered. Ban Mingzhuo also bought a ticket afterwards, and asked while swiping his card: "How many people are there today?" The conductor sighed and said, "With this terrible weather, where did they come from? I think our Beijing is over..." It would be better if no one was there, Ban Mingzhuo breathed a sigh of relief. After passing the archway, I went up the long chariot road.The pines and cypresses on both sides stand proudly in the wind and sand, showing extraordinary spirit. In fact, not only the trees, but even the Zhaotai Gate in front of them and the Ajiacang on the side of the road all showed such a domineering arrogance of gold tiles and glass. Ban Mingzhuo is quite familiar with this place. It is famous all over the country as the largest and best-preserved Lamaism Yellow Sect monastery in Beijing, and also the highest "standard" Buddhist monastery in the country.However, as a member of Group A, he is more concerned about the short history of this place as a "sticky place". In the 33rd year of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Kangxi built a mansion here and bestowed it on his fourth son, Prince Yong, which was called Prince Yong's Mansion.In 1723 AD, Yinzhen took a less than aboveboard approach and became emperor, that is, Emperor Yongzheng of Emperor Shizong of Qing Dynasty.His family moved into the inner courtyard of the palace as usual.In his political activities to eradicate dissidents, his queen's intelligence agency-the "sticky pole" is located here.After Yinzhen became emperor, his palace was the "Qianlong Mansion".In the third year after he succeeded to the throne, he changed half of the palace into a palace, called Lama Temple.The other half was given to Lama Zhangjia Hutuktu as the upper house of the Yellow Sect.In the thirteenth year of Yongzheng, Yongzheng "died" and once parked the coffin here. Therefore, the original green glazed tiles of the main hall of Lama Temple were changed to yellow glazed tiles.And because Emperor Qianhuang was born here, and two emperors came out of Lama Temple, it became a "blessed place for dragons to dive into", so the palace has yellow tiles and red walls, which are the same specifications as the Forbidden City Palace. I never expected to fight against each other in such a place. Although there are no tourists and innocent people will not be hurt, it would be terrible if the cultural relics were destroyed.Ban Mingzhuo secretly frowned.Why did the other party come here?Is it a gathering place?Impossible, and no one can live here, so this is the "battlefield" he chose?Ban Mingzhuo's heart suddenly became vigilant.Since the other party chose this place, there must be a reason.It is very likely that you want to use the environment here to do something, but you don't know how to use it? Walking up the imperial road in the middle of Zhaotai Gate, you can see the patterns of two dragons playing with pearls and longevity characters on the walls on both sides.Ban Mingzhuo smiled wryly in his heart, "Double fortune and longevity"?I hope so! The middle-aged woman passed the Bell and Drum Tower and the Stele Pavilion, and walked slowly into the Hall of Heavenly Kings. Ban Mingzhuo also walked after him. Before entering the palace gate, a strange feeling suddenly rose in my heart. An extremely powerful momentum is coming! For a moment, the flying sand within tens of meters completely stagnated and fell one after another. The other party has activated "Domain"! A slightly fat man in the main hall was smiling from him, his expression was very similar to Maitreya Buddha sitting cross-legged with a smile in the middle of the hall: "It's really hard for you to follow me for so long, Captain Ban Mingzhuo!"
