Chapter 342 -179: Target Number 2_2
The beautiful Chinese woman named Xiaolan in Zhuge Liuyun’s room was using a gun that was specially made, it was incredibly expensive, being a one-of-a-kind large-caliber sniper rifle in the world. The bullets for this sniper rifle were also specially made, with warheads containing a unique substance that, when combined with human blood, would produce a strange type of radioactive radiation. Although this radiation is harmless to humans, it could be detected from a great distance by a special instrument.
Therefore, as soon as someone was shot by Xiaolan’s sniper rifle bullet, radioactive radiation would appear in their body, and then Xiaolan could use the special instrument to locate and capture them. This method of capture had been tried and tested, and had never failed; this was also the confidence behind Zhuge Liuyun’s claim to have the strongest capturing capability.
For this operation, Zhuge Liuyun had previously provided the special instrument to the US Forces, allowing them to use it to search for any wounded Destroyer. With that special instrument, as soon as they approached a hit Destroyer, the Destroyer would appear as a bright and conspicuous lightbulb in the darkness, and the search vessel would immediately discover him. However, the search vessels kept moving upstream of the Seine River without finding any abnormalities, let alone seeing the Destroyer himself. They had even reached the spot where the Destroyer was shot and fell into the water without finding any trace of him.
So when this bad news reached the room, everyone was puzzled, and they all looked at Zhuge Liuyun, waiting for his explanation.
Zhuge Liuyun said indifferently, “In my years of a capturing career, I have never encountered such a situation, so I believe it must be that your search personnel have not operated the instrument I provided correctly. I suggest they start over and see if any areas have been overlooked.”
Bolton had some complaints about Zhuge Liuyun’s killing of the Armored Men and smashing their heads without reason, and now that it seemed Zhuge Liuyun might have made a mistake, he was ready to kick him while he was down. However, he suddenly remembered the importance of this task, and after weighing his options, he did not immediately turn against him. Instead, he ordered the search vessels to search downstream of the Seine River again to make sure they find the submerged Destroyer.
Zhuge Liuyun said, “Given this unexpected situation, I must personally go to the scene of the incident to examine it. Having firsthand information of the scene is positively significant for my next steps.”
Robin immediately said, “Mr. Zhuge, I am very interested in the case processing of China, may I join you and learn from it?”
Zhuge Liuyun smiled and said, “Welcome, Mr. Robin! However, it’s not so much about learning. We should exchange more, as this is the way to make progress together.”
Then Zhuge Liuyun and Robin left the room, and at the doorway, they met Xiaolan who had received a phone call and rushed over. Robin thought Xiaolan was Zhuge Liuyun’s colleague and didn’t mind, they briefly introduced themselves and then prepared to head to the crime scene. But at that moment, Bolton, Alain, and some others inside the room came out and asked to join the examination at the crime scene as well, fearing that these two might find something and not tell them. After all, these two were known as the Famous Detectives, with a great reputation, and no one knew what they might discover.
Zhuge Liuyun did not object, so a group of people got into the vehicles and, under the protection of fully armed US soldiers, crossed a large bridge over the Seine River and arrived at the spot where the Armored Man had been killed, five hundred meters ahead.

At this time, the body of the Armored Man had been placed on a military vehicle parked nearby, and the blood traces on the ground had been washed away by the torrential rain. However, next to the railings by the river where the Armored Man had met his end, there was a huge hole, and inside the hole, there was a deformed large-caliber bullet head. This was one of the warheads that flew out of the Armored Man’s body when Xiaolan had shot and killed him. Two soldiers nearby were using tools to remove the bullet head and put it in an evidence bag for action.
On the special instrument provided to the US Forces by Zhuge Liuyun, a bright point could be seen clearly. However, that point indicated the body of the killed Armored Man, and beyond that was darkness. In other words, the instrument was functioning normally and could detect the target, yet they could not find the likewise shot Destroyer.
The sky was still filled with relentless thunder and rain, making it seem like the apocalypse had arrived. Zhuge Liuyun wrapped his raincoat tightly around himself, standing in the gale on the bank where the Destroyer had been shot and fallen into the water. The Destroyer was hit in the middle of the Seine River channel then fell into the water, so the Destroyer left no trace here. However, Zhuge Liuyun had been observing the area with binoculars at the time and saw the bullet penetrate the Destroyer, hit the stones on the river channel, and leave a large hole in them.
Thus, Zhuge Liuyun headed to the spot where the bullet had made the hole in the stone, relying on his memory, but he was somewhat stunned. Because where he remembered a hole should have been, there was nothing, and the piece of stone was intact. Moreover, it looked very old, even covered in moss, fitting perfectly with the other stones around it as if it had always been there.
