I am a super cop

Chapter 2850: Additional Money [Happy New Year]

Comrade Lao Han seemed to be very averse to searching in the snowy forest, which seemed to be a deep concern for him as a local.

Seeing Han Yun's big reaction, Gu Chen nodded silently and said without hesitation: "Then I'll listen to you. You make the arrangements."

"Gu Chen, my attitude was a bit bad just now." Han Yun seemed to realize that his tone was a bit too harsh, so he quickly explained:

"In fact, this is not the first time we have conducted a search in the snowy forest. Previously, a police officer acted rashly and ended up getting lost in the snowy forest, causing an accident."

Taking a deep breath, Han Yun continued to explain: "You don't understand the cold climate here, especially in the forest. Anything can happen."

"What we have to do is to protect ourselves and then find the suspects."

"You are right." After hearing what Han Yun said, Gu Chen also echoed:
"Old Han, just do as you say. I'll listen to you."

"Okay." Seeing that Gu Chen had no objection, Han Yun immediately called the guide Lao Gao over and said:
"Lao Gao, as the forest ranger here, your opinion is very important."

"Okay." Seeing Han Yun's serious expression, the guide Lao Gao also walked up to the crowd and began to observe carefully.

Holding some simple tools in his hands, he began to inspect the branches of the trees.

After observing for a while, he said nothing, just waved to everyone and began to walk deeper into the woods.

Everyone looked at each other, somewhat confused.

But Han Yun waved his hand, signaling everyone to follow quickly.

Everyone, carrying various communication equipment, began walking in the thick snow.

Snow is getting bigger and bigger.

Everyone was soon covered with snow.

Everyone then realized that the footsteps seemed to be getting deeper and deeper.

A police officer complained, "How can we go on this road? Why are we going deeper and deeper? There is no road at all. If we keep going like this, we won't have a way to go back. This is not good."

"What are you talking about?" The guide Lao Gao raised his eyebrows and looked around quickly.

After repeated observation, he began to tie the webbing on the tree, and then complained to the police officer:
"If you can't find the way, look at the signs."

"What if these signs were deliberately destroyed by the suspects? For example, if they untied the ribbons and tied them somewhere else, wouldn't we be doomed?"

Another police officer complained.

Lao Gao said angrily, "Can't you two say something nice? Stop arguing."

After a lot of verbal attacks, he turned around and looked forward. He came to Han Yun with doubts and said:
"Old Han, the situation today is not good. The snow is getting heavier and heavier. It's quite troublesome."

"Just tell me, have those people entered the woods?" Han Yun's focus didn't seem to be on the weather.

Lao Gao hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"That is to say, that group of people are in the woods, right?" Han Yun confirmed again.

Lao Gao nodded silently: "Yes."

"Let's do it and find them." Han Yun was firm this time.

Lao Gao continued to hesitate.

Seeing this, Han Yun hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"You have to pay more."

Lao Gao's answer almost caught Han Yun off guard, and he staggered.

Han Yun said, "Lao Gao, are you obsessed with money? Is money the only thing on your mind?"

"Old Han, you know me well. I have done a lot of good things, but what did I get in the end? Nothing."

"After so many years, I'm still in the forest, and my salary is just that little. I run a small shop and a guesthouse, but that can only supplement my family's income. Even so, I still get criticized for all kinds of things."

With a heavy sigh, Lao Gao couldn't help but sigh: "I finally understand that these days, it's not enough to just talk about dedication. I don't want to be that kind of selfless person now."

"After all, I've experienced so many disappointing things that I've let it go. I just want to make my life better. I serve as a guide for guests and charge a guide fee. I also charge a guide fee for you."

"Of course, I have no problem if your leader doesn't give it to me. Just follow your conscience."

Taking a deep breath, Lao Gao gestured with his hands: "When those tourists got lost in the woods before, was it me who went to find them? When they encountered wild animals, was it me who drove them away?"

"Who will take care of me if I get hurt? Can medical reimbursement solve my future life?"

Shaking his head, Lao Gao also sighed helplessly: "Lao Han, I am different from you. What can you expect from me in this job? I am just an honest man. It is not easy to make a little money."

"Okay, Lao Gao, I understand you. I'll talk to my superiors later. If we can catch the person, I'll give you a bonus. Is that okay?" Han Yun understood Lao Gao.

After all, I was not familiar with this forest ranger before, but after getting to know him, I found that this old Gao only had money in his eyes.

Perhaps life is too difficult, so Han Yun seems unable to refute other people's requests.

After everyone had a brief discussion, Lao Gao slowly said:

"Okay, if you pay me more, I'll take you to continue looking for people. After all, this is a dangerous job and it's not easy to do."

“Also, the risks are huge.”

"Alright, Lao Gao, that's enough. Now help us find these people. They are very dangerous. If they stay in this area for a long time, it will be dangerous for you, Lao Gao."

"Finding them sooner will be good for you and everyone else."

"Okay." Seeing Han Yun said so, Lao Gao began to take out the ribbon and hang it on the tree trunk again.

Everyone looked at each other. Although they were a little speechless, they could understand each other.

You can't let people work for nothing, right? Corresponding material rewards are also necessary. After all, the work of forest rangers is very hard, and everyone has heard of this.

"Go this way. Don't get lost. The plants here all look the same, and there's no signal."

"If we fall behind here, it will be troublesome. Everyone keep up."

Following Lao Gao's shout, everyone followed.

They formed a long snake formation and began to search forward.

I don't know how long we walked, but Lao Gao suddenly stopped, and suddenly made a gesture to everyone to stop moving forward and quickly squat down.

Seeing this, Han Yun quickly whispered to the police officers behind him, "Hold down, everyone, squat down, quickly."

Everyone was at a loss for what to do with this sudden situation. Everyone quickly squatted down and began to look around. Gu Chen quickly approached Lao Gao and asked, "Lao Gao, did you find anything?"

"Yeah." Lao Gao stared straight ahead and then pointed to the left with his finger.

Gu Chen followed Lao Gao's guidance and found some footprints not far away.

But upon closer inspection, these footprints are not human footprints, but rather look like those of wild animals here.

"What kind of animal is this?" Gu Chen asked.

"It's a wild elk." After Lao Gao said this, he also looked around.

Gu Chen asked again: "So, you found the elk?"

"No." Lao Gao shook his head and continued:
"But I heard recently that there are wild Siberian tigers in this area, so everyone better be careful."

"What I fear most now is encountering this thing. The last time I encountered one, it smashed my car window. I almost died at the hands of a wild Siberian tiger that time. I still feel scared when I think about it now."

"Has Lao Gao ever met a wild Siberian tiger?" After hearing what Lao Gao said, Lu Weiwei also became interested.

Lao Gao nodded silently and said without hesitation: "I have been a forest ranger here for many years. I have encountered all kinds of wild animals, including wild Siberian tigers many times."

"The one I encountered was the most ferocious one. It rushed over and smashed my car window. I was so scared that I almost lost my soul. The car was seriously damaged. Fortunately, I hid in the back seat and was not eaten by that guy."

"Later, the guy kept hitting my car, and it was almost deformed. Maybe because the space was too small and the broken glass made the tiger hesitate to attack."

"Finally, its claws hit the horn. The piercing sound frightened the creature, so it gave up the attack and left the vehicle."

With a heavy sigh, Lao Gao also began to breathe heavily, and said unhappily:

"So, why do I ask you to respect nature? Because nature is full of dangers. Don't think we can do whatever we want just because we are two-legged animals."

"In this forest, any wild animal that's slightly larger can kill you."

"Lao Gao, stop scaring people. Look how scared the girl is." Han Yun couldn't help but complain when he saw Lao Gao talking endlessly about his past work.

Then he quickly explained to Lu Weiwei: "Officer Lu, don't be afraid, what he said is true, but we have more people now, and the weapons in our hands are not fire sticks."

"Even if those wild animals want to attack us, they have to think carefully before doing so. You don't have to worry about that."

"Haha, I know." It would have been fine if Han Yun didn't comfort her. After he comforted her like this, she felt even more uneasy.

Officer Wang smiled and said, "Lu Weiwei, don't be nervous. It's okay. The probability they mentioned is really too small."

"Even if we really encounter a wild Siberian tiger, we have more people than you. If it attacks because of our large numbers, won't it have to think twice?"

"Most of the brainless wild animals have become extinct. Only smart wild animals deserve to live."

"Okay, Old Wang, you can shut up now." Hearing what Officer Wang said, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but complain.

Officer Wang chuckled, but suddenly heard Lao Gao's reminder.

"Everyone, pay attention, don't make any noise, squat down, squat down quickly."

It was also at Lao Gao's reminder that everyone quickly squatted down and began to observe the movements around them.

Not long after, a figure suddenly appeared in the distance.

An elk slowly walked out of the woods, and after observing for a while, it moved forward.

Not long after, one or two more elk appeared from the woods behind, followed by more and more wild elk.

These elks actually saw the presence of humans, but they always kept a safe distance from humans.

Seeing that the humans had no intention of harming them, the elk began to walk from left to right among the crowd.

After seeing the last elk leave everyone's sight, Lao Gao breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"The most frightening thing is that these elks run past, because it means that they may be attacked by wild beasts behind them."

"If these elks are running wildly, there might be a wild Siberian tiger following them. Have you seen a Siberian tiger?"

"I have seen it." Seeing Lao Gao say this, Yuan Shasha also said:

"I've seen them in the Siberian Tiger Park. I even fed them strips of meat, but they wouldn't eat no matter how much I called them."

"Haha." Seeing Yuan Shasha say this, Lao Gao also laughed dryly and said:

"The Siberian tigers in the zoo are fed all kinds of food by tourists every day. It's normal for them to be full, and it's also normal for them not to want to eat meat."

"But wild Siberian tigers are different from those in the Siberian Tiger Park. Remember, wild Siberian tigers will eat any prey they catch if they are hungry, including humans."

"Besides, that thing has a very strong attack power. If it hits us with one claw, considering our human physique, it would be illogical not to be knocked unconscious."

"Besides the black box, tigers basically have no natural enemies here."

"But the black box needs to hibernate, so at this time, it is the wild Siberian tigers that dominate the world, so it is always better to be careful."

"Can we continue walking now?" Han Yun asked impatiently.

The old man smiled and said, "Okay, let's go, stop dawdling and get going."

"Who is dithering? Aren't you the one who is dithering?" a police officer complained in a low voice.

Everyone started to move forward, and Lao Gao was also very conscientious and made various marks along the way.

And according to Lao Gao himself, he is quite familiar with this area and he could walk out without relying on markings, but considering that there are many people in the team and he is afraid of accidents, he tied the ribbon.

In addition, when it is snowing and the road is difficult to see clearly, the experience of the veteran forest rangers is particularly important.

Gu Chen also asked Lao Gao as they walked: "Lao Gao, if these people don't know this area well, would they go deep into the forest?"

"No." Lao Gao shook his head and said without hesitation:

"If you don't move around the forest often, you won't know the specific situation inside the forest."

"Because the forest here is quite large, most people don't dare to enter the forest at will."

"And the group of people you are talking about may have mistakenly entered the forest in order to escape pursuit."

"It's possible that they can't get out now, so there's a high probability that they are trapped in the woods and running around."

"Is your analysis reliable?" Han Yun turned his head to look at Lao Gao and said jokingly.

Lao Gao frowned and asked, "What do you think? If you don't believe me, then why did you ask me to be your guide? I can't fool you."
