Breaking Through The Clouds

Chapter 144

"Hey, Captain Jiang." Qin Chuan smiled, "I suddenly have something I want to talk to you about."

Passing through towering trees and hillsides covered by layers of vegetation, there was a small path leading to Qiju Peak. A convoy of several SUVs gradually appeared at the end of the mountain road and flew up to the mountaintop shrouded in clouds and mist in the distance in just a few moments.

Wang Pengfei was nearly fifty years old, and his figure was on the fat side. There were several layers of messy ivory tourmaline and rosewood prayer beads wrapped around his wrists, and he was twisting them from time to time. This man had probably lived along the coast for a long time and was not used to the severe cold in the deep mountains. Several layers of sweaters and down jackets made him even bulkier and bloated, and one person alone almost occupied the entire row of the back seat, squeezing Old Cai so tightly that he could only cling to the car window.

Jiang Ting sat on the side, his back was habitually straight, and his hands were naturally placed on his overlapping thighs. Wang Pengfei looked him up and down suspiciously, probably feeling that the rumored Queen of Hearts was too thin and simple. After thinking for a long time, he finally coughed and asked with a smile, "Hey, don't you feel cold in such a light suit?"

Jiang Ting replied in neither warm nor cold tone: "I'm a local; I'm used to it."

Wang Pengfei nodded with a smile and then asked tentatively: "This is the deep mountains and forests, and you took the trouble to come and pick me up yourself; why don't you bring a few more people? The King of Spades doesn't feel distressed for his subordinates?"

Old Cai's facial muscles tightened beside him.

Jiang Ting slowly turned his head to look at Wang Pengfei, smiled strangely, and slightly pulled down the front zipper--Wang Pengfei saw a tiny microphone clipped inside his collar, and then he pressed the switch: "Hello, where are we?"

There were a few buzzes on the other end of the communication channel, and the tense voice of "Ghost Seeing Sorrow" came: "The target convoy has just passed the third section of the journey and is heading for the fourth section. It is expected to cross the Qijiu Peak in half an hour; over."

Wang Pengfei's eyes instantly straightened.

"There are the King of Spades' people along the way, who will escort us into Yunzhong village." Jiang Ting said meaningfully: "What one sees is not always true, Boss Wang. I think you should understand this after wandering in the rivers and lakes for so many years."

Wang Pengfei : "......"

Jiang Ting smiled at him, motioning for him to look at the green mountains and forests outside the car window. He didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but now that Wang Pengfei looked at the slightly swaying canopy at the mountain peak, he really felt a little jittery.

Ma Xiang took the mic away from Gong A-Chi's mouth, who was tightly handcuffed, wiped it on his clothes, and gestured OK to the front. Seeing this in the rearview mirror, Yan Xie nodded and reached out to connect to the channel: "Team C11 prepare to follow up; Team C11 prepare to follow up. The target will cross the Qijiu peak in half an hour; over." There was a rustling sound from the channel: "Team C11 is following up! Over."

Yan Xie threw the walkie-talkie back.

This police car, which was temporarily taken from the Forest Police, was repainted in camouflage colors, following the positioning light spot on the navigator representing Jiang Ting, and rumbling through the mountains and forests.

.........

In winter, it got dark too early in the mountainous area. After 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the sky had already darkened.
