544: This is Su Yue? ?
Just as they were in a frenzy, Qi Team's phone rang.
He was thinking about where things went wrong and why Su Yue hadn't called yet.
Although his eyes were on the book in his hands, his gaze was somewhat unfocused.
Only when the phone rang did he suddenly snap back to attention.
He immediately pulled out his phone, looked at the contact name on the screen, and answered the call. "
Director Zhang, this is A Qi." The caller was Tang Ping, the deputy director of the TV station.
And A Qi's voice also attracted everyone's attention.
They suddenly looked up at A Qi, who was on the phone.
A Qi's mood was also a little excited at this moment.
What did it mean that Deputy Director Tang Ping was calling him at this time?
Had Su Yue taken the bait?
Tang Ping on the other end said, "Qi Team, the call came."
Hearing this news, A Qi's eyes lit up.
"It really came!"
He continued, feeling a little excited, "Where??"
Tang Ping said, "In Yuexiu District."
"In Yuexiu District?" A Qi immediately nodded and said, "Okay, have you set a time?"
Tang Ping immediately replied, "The time is probably between 7 and 8 PM. The location is in a residential building, just like you said before."
A Qi nodded and then asked, "About when did you make contact?"
Tang Ping said, "Just contacted."
A Qi hummed, "Okay, thank you for your cooperation, Director Zhang. If this case is solved, you'll have made a great contribution!"
Tang Ping chuckled twice, "It's my duty to cooperate with your work..."
Then he changed the subject, "But Qi Team, I always feel something is off. What if it's not Su Yue but a real person looking for relatives? The tone didn't sound like a test..."
A Qi smiled and said, "No matter. Even if it's a real person looking for relatives, it won't alert the snake. Director Zhang, remember what I said, before confirming the capture of the criminal, absolutely do not reveal any related information to anyone!"
Tang Ping on the other end readily agreed, "Don't worry, Qi Team, I know what I'm doing. I hope everything goes smoothly for you."
A Qi was also full of ambition, "I'll take your auspicious words!"
After hanging up the phone, A Qi immediately said, "Call Cui Jia, we're leaving!"
"Call Cui Jia, we're leaving!"
At A Qi's command, everyone quickly stood up, tidied their belongings efficiently, and prepared to head downstairs.
Gao Xiang took out his phone and dialed Cui Jia's number, but the phone rang in the office.
He froze for a moment and looked at A Qi.
A Qi made a decisive decision, "Go to the archives department and see if he's there. If you don't find him, leave him a message, and he can come over when he sees it."
Gao Xiang nodded and hurried towards the archives department on the fourth floor.
Meanwhile, A Qi led the others downstairs, their steps hurried, their objective clear—to arrest Su Yue!
A Qi started the engine, and Gao Xiang's figure suddenly appeared in front of the car.
"Couldn't find Cui Jia?" A Qi asked.
Gao Xiang nodded and said, "When I went, Qi Team said Brother Zhong and Brother Cui had just left the office, it seemed they went to print something, but they weren't in the printing room either."
A Qi pondered for a moment and said, "Never mind if he's not there. Did you leave a message for Cui Jia?"
Gao Xiang replied while getting into the car, "I did. As long as he can see his phone, he will definitely see the message."
"Good," A Qi said decisively, "Then let's go!"
The car drove out of the Taiyang City Bureau gate, initially heading straight for Yuexiu District.
However, in the car, Xiao Ting suddenly raised a question, "Qi Team, I've been feeling lately that there's something wrong with Cui Jia... Could he be Su Yue in disguise?"
A Qi froze for a moment and didn't answer.
But Xiao Ting continued to speak on his own, listing a series of Cui Jia's abnormal behaviors.
Zhu Xiao also frowned in agreement.
Gao Xiang suggested conducting checks, such as having Cui Jia wash his face or checking fingerprints.
But A Qi interrupted him, "That will have to wait until after tonight.
Don't think so much about it now. I said, don't say such things without conclusive evidence."
Although A Qi said this, he had actually begun to suspect in his heart.
After all, Cui Jia did have time outside the office, and he had every opportunity to call that director.
However, now they could only hope that Cui Jia was not Su Yue in disguise.
Otherwise, their plan would be completely exposed and utterly failed!
Despite A Qi denying Xiao Ting and Zhu Xiao's claims, he was actually feeling a bit uneasy inside.
However, a determined light flickered in his eyes.
Because the place he was going now was not the residential building mentioned by Director Zhang, but the Municipal Bureau in Yuexiu District!
As long as Su Yue made that call, he would definitely be arrested! A Qi had no doubt about this!
Everyone in the car was silent. Their car left the Municipal Bureau around 5 PM.
However, more than an hour passed, and the sky had already darkened, but they still hadn't reached Yuexiu District.
Yan Qing looked at the road outside the window and frowned, asking A Qi, "Qi Team... did you take a wrong turn? Yuexiu District isn't in this direction..."
A Qi replied, "No mistake. We are not going to Yuexiu District."
Everyone's hearts skipped a beat, and Gao Xiang was even more astonished.
He asked, completely bewildered, "Then where are we going? Qi Team! What is going on!?"
A Qi just said, "You'll know soon."
Gao Xiang wanted to say something but ultimately didn't.
He just took out his phone, opened the map application, and located their position.
Seeing the display on the map, his expression completely froze.
His heart jolted violently, and there was even a hint of fear in his eyes.
He gritted his teeth and asked in a low voice, "Qi Team... I think you need to give me an explanation. We're still near the Municipal Bureau? Who exactly are you? What is your purpose!?"
Hearing Gao Xiang's words, the others sitting in the car instantly felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar!
Still near the Municipal Bureau!?
What in the world is going on!?
In the car, everyone's mouths were slightly open, the shock in their hearts unspeakable.
A Qi was the soul of the entire Special Task Force, but their car was still near the Municipal Bureau!?

What exactly were they doing during this hour-plus drive?
Were they just driving around near the Municipal Bureau?
"A Qi!"
Gao Xiang could hardly contain his anger, "What are you trying to do? If we delay like this, do you know it's very likely we'll let Su Yue get away? Or are you not A Qi at all? Are you stalling for time?"
Gao Xiang's words were sharp and highly aggressive, as if he would take action the moment the car stopped.
Xiao Ting was a bit confused, but everyone in the car was one of their own, so such a situation shouldn't be happening.
Especially A Qi, he was the backbone of the Special Task Force. If they fell out now, let alone catching Su Yue, the Special Task Force might disband on the spot.
Although he couldn't quite sort out the situation, he still spoke up to persuade, "Gao Xiang, don't rush, maybe Qi Team has a reason..."
"Reason?"
Gao Xiang sat in the passenger seat, staring at A Qi without blinking, "What reason could make us waste an hour?
What have all our efforts over this period been for?
Since someone contacted Yuexiu District, it means he is in Yuexiu District!
Now, even if Su Yue went there, it's all over! Stop the car! Explain things clearly!
No wonder there isn't a single local person in this car. Where are Xiao Xiao and Xiang Haitian?
Why hasn't Cui Jia contacted us yet?
What is your purpose!"
Xiao Ting didn't speak again this time. Although he was willing to believe A Qi, was the person sitting in the driver's seat at this moment still A Qi?
His expression was a bit stiff, and the others were even more so.
Yan Qing, Zhu Xiao, and Yang Hua's faces were full of surprise.
If they wasted time in this place, what was the meaning of their actions?
The Municipal Bureau and the TV station collaborated to produce the "Thousands of Miles to Find Relatives" program.
Although this program was broadcast simultaneously throughout the city, each district had its own variations.
The preparations they had been making during this time were for the filming of this program.
The specific differences were actually very small, but the most fundamental difference lay in the phone numbers and contact addresses left at the end of the program for each district.
Different phone numbers corresponded to different districts.
That is to say, since Su Yue called the number for Yuexiu District, he must have seen the program in Yuexiu District.
Regardless of whether Su Yue would go to that location as agreed at 7 o'clock, they could confirm Su Yue's approximate whereabouts.
This way, the scope of the arrest operation could be quickly narrowed down! This was Lin Liqun's plan!
However, now, A Qi was actually driving around near the Municipal Bureau?
This action almost made them lose everything!
If they didn't go to Yuexiu District, what was the meaning of all their efforts during this time?
Yan Qing also spoke up, "Team... Qi Team... I think it's best to explain."
It was obvious that even saying the words "Qi Team" at this moment, she was hesitant.
If there wasn't a suitable reason, it meant that the person in front of them was very likely Su Yue's accomplice!
"Do you know why Professor Li didn't stay in Taiyang?"
At this moment, A Qi finally spoke.
Hearing his words, everyone's expressions froze, even the angry Gao Xiang was stunned.
But the stiffness on Gao Xiang's face didn't last long, and he immediately said, "Stop beating around the bush! Where do we have time to play guessing games with you now? What is the reason, hurry up and say it!"
Not only did A Qi not get angry, but he smiled instead, "Young people are indeed full of fire. It's almost time now, so I can tell you the result..."
The car continued to drive on the road. It was now rush hour, and the traffic was getting heavier. However, it was very quiet inside the car, and the atmosphere could be described as tense.
The other members of the Special Task Force were waiting for the answer from A Qi's mouth. If his answer was problematic, even if it was A Qi, they would show no mercy!
A Qi continued, "What you know is only the initial part of the plan.
And the real key to this plan is what Professor Li went to do.
He didn't leave Taiyang because of something at the University of Political Science and Law, but to control those phone lines.
Professor Li is still in Taiyang, but he has been staying at the mobile company headquarters during this time.
The phone numbers we provided are not ordinary numbers, but numbers that can confirm the location of the caller within one minute through reverse tracking."
A Qi's words left Gao Xiang speechless.
A Qi continued, "That's right, as long as Su Yue makes a call, his location will be roughly locked."
Gao Xiang was stunned for a long time before speaking, "This is the real plan?"
A Qi nodded, "That's right, this is the real plan, and only I and your teacher know about this plan. Since Su Yue can disguise himself as anyone, there aren't many people we can trust. Even for the colleagues in the team, in order to ensure the smooth execution of the plan, we chose not to let more people know this information."
Gao Xiang was deeply shocked. His teacher's calculations were indeed formidable, far beyond his own.
To be able to even calculate his own people into it...
But he also felt an inexplicable sense of loss, after all, although he was in it, he hadn't realized anything...
This was a feeling of not being trusted.
A Qi watched Gao Xiang fall silent and suddenly said, "Gao Xiang, remember what I said? Don't be defeated. You will say the same to your juniors in the future. The person you are now is the hope for the future. What you are experiencing now is valuable experience for your future. No one can encounter an opponent like Su Yue, but you can."
Gao Xiang lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking. A Qi didn't say anything more.
And Gao Xiang asked again, "If the specific location can be confirmed, then why not proceed directly with the arrest, but instead waste this hour?"
His voice was no longer so confrontational, but his words were still a bit sharp. "Explain it clearly."
The faces of the Special Task Force members were almost out of control. What A Qi had just said had shocked them too much.
Even their own people were treated as pawns. This cold layout made them feel a sense of awe when they recalled Professor Li's weathered face.
His eyes, which seemed to be able to see through everything, made people feel a chill.
Moreover, not only this plan, but the question Gao Xiang just raised plunged these people, who had not yet fully digested the plan, into confusion.
Gao Xiang's thinking was indeed very fast, and he showed no mercy to A Qi.
Even though A Qi had just advised him not to mind, his words were still sharp.
"If the specific location can be confirmed, then why not proceed directly with the arrest, but instead waste this hour?"
He demanded that A Qi "explain it clearly."
Hearing this, A Qi felt that Gao Xiang's thoughts seemed to have changed; he had become much colder.
But A Qi didn't have time to think so much at the moment. Since Gao Xiang asked this question, he naturally had to answer.
"The location can be confirmed, but it's only a planar location. When Professor Li contacted me just now, he said that the phone signal source was in the Municipal Bureau. And it wasn't off-duty yet at that time. If we had proceeded with the arrest then, Su Yue could have easily escaped in the chaos."
Gao Xiang's heart jolted again. The signal source was actually in the Municipal Bureau?
In other words, Su Yue had already infiltrated the Municipal Bureau?
However, the questions were not over yet. Although the plan A Qi mentioned now did bring him considerable shock, the questions that needed to be asked had to be resolved clearly.
Su Yue had escaped too many times because of insufficient details. He had to be cautious until the last moment!
