Qin Yuan held his hand and told him not to move.
"Wait, don't spray! It will affect my sense of smell. I can smell fire smoke in the air."
The soldiers at the back thought this guy was joking. The air humidity was so high now that even the military dogs they brought had lost their sense of smell and there was no way to look for it. Qin Yuan said that he wanted to smell the smoke.
Qin Yuan stood in front of the speedboat, and then smelled the smell in the air carefully. As long as the distance was not too far, his system had been upgraded and he could distinguish the smell within one to two kilometers.
The people behind were all watching the joke, because they thought this was impossible. The humidity in the air was too high now, and they couldn't smell anything but the smell of rain.
But Qin Yuan suddenly made a gesture and asked them to go to the branch on the left.
"Captain Qin, I remember they already searched yesterday. Is it a waste of time for us to go there now?"
The soldier behind was a little dissatisfied. He raised doubts. He couldn't just let everyone run away in vain with just one word. Everyone was running around in a mess at this late night without any clue.
"Just do as I say, no problem."
The soldier could only follow Qin Yuan's instructions and control the speedboat to head towards the branch on the left. After driving like this for more than ten minutes, Qin Yuan asked him to go to the right again.
Because it was night, although everyone had lights on, they were circling seven or eight times in the river branching here. The soldiers behind were also a little impatient.
"Captain Qin, can you figure out the direction first? I feel like you are playing tricks on us."
In fact, Qin Yuan cannot be blamed for this. Now that the wind direction has completely changed, it is actually more difficult to smell the smell. He can smell the smell in all directions, and he can only rely on simple smells to search for it, so he can only keep trying.
The secretary told the soldiers behind him not to talk and to just follow Qin Yuan's arrangements. They walked like this for more than 20 minutes. Qin Yuan asked them to stop at the edge, and several people jumped down. Sure enough, they found footprints on the shore.
The secretary was also very happy. He finally found a clue. He quickly got the walkie-talkie and asked others to come here quickly to meet up.
I kept walking in the direction of the footprints, but strangely, when I reached the deepest point, I only saw a pile of burned ashes, and no one else was found.
They shouldn't be able to move easily at this late night. Qin Yuan squatted down and touched the warmth of the ashes. They had been away for at least an hour. No wonder he couldn't find his direction just now and could only smell the faint smell of fire smoke. .
The soldiers behind him did not dare to say anything more, because this move was so powerful that they could find clues in this situation, although they did not find anyone.
Others also began to search in this area. After a while, a soldier found some bandages, but there were no other clues.
Qin Yuan felt that the matter was not that simple. He looked at the secretary next to him and said, "In this area, would you like to check if there are any criminals entrenched here?"
The secretary nodded, "Are you saying you're worried about them being hijacked by those armed men?"
"I can't say it was a hijacking. You see there are no signs of fighting around. It seems that they left voluntarily. Moreover, the sound of our speedboat was relatively loud just now. I guess they should be able to hear it around."
