Tiger, I rejected the iron rice bowl.

Chapter 447 Is it illegal for a tiger to sell antiques?

The researcher on duty chimed in, laughing and flattering, "Hehe, you have such sharp eyes, Director! I looked for ages and didn't even notice these!"

Ji Yongjun glanced at him indifferently, but didn't reply, continuing to stare at the surveillance footage.

At the same time, the real-time location trajectory of the camera was retrieved.

Looking at the constantly moving red dot on the map, he turned to the researcher on duty and asked in a deep voice, "What do you think?"

"Why would someone with a secure job deliberately remove the camera and move the equipment around for an extended period of time? Where is he going? What does he want to do?"

Upon hearing this, the researcher on duty immediately suppressed his smile, frowned, and stared at the map trajectory in deep thought. "Hmm, Director..."

A few seconds later, he pointed to an area on the map, "Director, judging from the direction the 'iron rice bowl' is heading, I think he's probably going here!"

"Our base has a very dense network of infrared cameras deployed throughout the 'iron rice bowl' territory!"

"Apart from this steep cliff and the blind spot at the bottom, cameras have been installed in almost all other areas nearby."

"Those with secure jobs are already familiar with all the surveillance locations. If they just find the equipment interesting, they don't need to take it this far. They can just dismantle it, tinker with it, and leave."

"He's very smart; he deliberately disassembled the equipment intact. It wasn't just for fun."

"In my opinion, he must have discovered something and wants to send us images to tip us off!"

He paused, his expression growing increasingly serious, and continued to speculate:

"The only area in the entire region that is not monitored is the cliff area. The fact that he insisted on walking in this direction is enough to show that there is definitely something unusual in this cliff area."

"Director, I suspect... there's a high probability that they found someone over there!"

"Hmm?" Ji Yongjun raised an eyebrow, looking at him with suspicion.

The researcher explained earnestly, "Director, think about it, a secure job is like a Siberian tiger, the king of the forest, with a proud and arrogant nature!"

"There are no wild beasts in the mountains that he can fear, or that would require him to seek our help."

"Besides people, I really can't think of anything else a secure job could be afraid of?"

"For him to go to the trouble of dismantling the equipment to send a message, it must be a problem he can't solve on his own!"

"If he can't solve it, only someone else can bring it to him!"

"Think about it, every time he proactively sought our help before, wasn't it because of someone else?"

"This time will most likely be the same situation!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Yongjun thought about it carefully and suddenly understood.

It seems that's really the case!

Every time Wang Yuyu had previously sought their help, it was because someone had entered the mountains and posed a threat to him!

Is it still the same now?

By analogy, Wang Yuyu's unusual behavior this time is very likely because he discovered someone hiding near the cliff, felt that he could not handle the situation, and came up with the idea of dismantling the camera, taking the equipment to collect evidence and report the incident.

Having figured out the crux of the matter, Ji Yongjun nodded heavily, his face grim: "You're right, that's probably it!"

He stood up, patted the researcher on the shoulder, and quickly instructed, "Keep an eye on the monitors and report any unusual activity immediately. I'm going out for a bit."

"Yes, Director!" The researcher on duty immediately straightened his back and answered loudly.

Ji Yongjun was preoccupied and quickly walked out, taking out his phone and immediately dialing Fan Zhengcheng's number.

After a brief exchange, he quickly returned and asked, "How's it going? Where's the 'iron rice bowl' now?"

The researcher on duty shook his head dejectedly and said sadly, "Director, 'Iron Rice Bowl' has already moved out of the camera's signal coverage area. We can't track his location at all now!"

"Are you a pig?!"

Ji Yongjun, enraged, slapped him on the back of the head and yelled, "Couldn't you have marked the signal coverage area of the equipment on the map if the signal was lost?"

"As soon as he reappears, we can pinpoint his location immediately!"

"Even if they don't show up, we can still narrow down the general area for investigation!"

"You can't even think of this basic operation?"

The researcher on duty rubbed the back of his head, looking aggrieved, and whispered in protest, "Director, I... I don't know how to do this."

Upon hearing this, Ji Yongjun's anger flared even more. He raised his hand as if to strike again, "If you can't do it, why don't you find someone to do it? What's the use of just standing there and watching!"

The researcher quickly turned his head to avoid the slap and swiftly pulled out his phone: "Yes, yes, I'll call someone over right away!"

Ji Yongjun pushed aside his workstation chair, moved a chair over himself, sat down in front of the computer, and carefully reviewed the last footage before the camera lost contact.

Before long, several technicians ran over, and after some fiddling, they determined Wang Yuyu's approximate location!

"Director, based on the equipment's maximum signal coverage, combined with the speed and direction of the 'iron rice bowl' (a nickname for a suspect), he's most likely in that cliff area, and very likely at the bottom!"

"At the top of the cliff, you can barely receive a signal from the edge, but at the bottom of the cliff, it's a complete signal dead zone, and you can't receive anything at all!"

Seemingly afraid that Ji Yongjun wouldn't believe him, he added, "If the 'iron rice bowl' wasn't there, we should have already moved out of the signal blind spot by now!"

Ji Yongjun looked at the computer screen and nodded slightly. "Hmm!"

After a few seconds, he continued:

"Keep an eye on it. If the 'iron rice bowl' guy is tipping us off, he'll definitely show up again, and then we'll know what's going on!"

"Yes!" the group replied in unison, their eyes glued to the computer screen!

On the other side, at the bottom of the cliff, just as Ji Yongjun and the others had guessed, Wang Yuyu was fiddling with a camera, secretly filming the cave!

After photographing the firelight in the cave and the signs of activity at the cave entrance, Wang Yu quietly left!

Walking along the road, Wang Yu tilted her head and thought, "Hmm~ I wonder how wide the signal range of this camera is? Will the research base be able to receive it?"

"What if I don't receive it? Wouldn't all my work have been for nothing?"

"Sigh~ Oh well, I guess I'll just have to make the trip again!"

"Put it back where it was, and it'll definitely receive the signal and transmit the image back!"

"How come I'm so smart?"

Overjoyed, Wang Yuyu hummed a little tune and swaggered through the mountains and forests!

As he walked, he remembered something else!

"What if the police arrive too late and those people get away?"

"I wonder if they have guns?"

"If only there were no guns, I could handle this all by myself!"

"When the time comes, we'll give Tang Li what they dug up; she'll definitely like it, right?"

"By the way, is it illegal for a tiger to sell antiques?"

"Shouldn't they be arresting me instead of me?"
