The dog "Laifu" twitched his nose extremely cautiously from the beginning, and his small nostrils trembled slightly, as if searching for some mysterious information in the air.

Its eyes were focused and serious, carefully distinguishing the surrounding atmosphere. It looked like an experienced scout carrying out a crucial mission.

The air around them seemed frozen as Lai Fu absorbed every subtle change in scent. His body tensed slightly, a testament to his heightened alertness. His earnest demeanor filled one with anticipation for his next discovery.

Soon, Lai Fu seemed to sense something unusual. His tail swayed joyfully like a flag in the wind, his excitement as if he had discovered a treasure.

Then, like an arrow from a bow, Lai Fu darted off, following that distinct scent. His swiftness and speed were astonishing. That scent seemed to become the direction he was determined to pursue, guiding him ever forward.

Yu Hai and Zhao Lin looked at each other when they saw Lai Fu's actions. Their eyes were full of surprise. What on earth had this dog discovered that made him so excited?

"It was discovered so quickly? This dog's nose is so sharp!" Yu Hai couldn't help but sigh, with a hint of disbelief in his voice.

Afterwards, Yu Hai hurriedly pulled Zhao Lin up and followed closely behind Lai Fu. Their pace was hurried, fearing that they would lose this important clue accidentally.

As Zhao Lin ran at full speed, he would occasionally look back to check on Tong Qisheng. He saw Tong Qisheng following behind him at a leisurely pace, a faint smile on his face. That smile seemed to embody a calmness and confidence that made him feel at ease.

Zhao Lin's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly felt as if he had encountered a golden opportunity. His heartbeat quickened, and his breathing became rapid.

So, he quickened his pace and came to Tong Qisheng's side. Zhao Lin grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, scratched his head shyly, and said, "Brother Tong, I want to join your team."

His eyes were full of anticipation and desire, as if this decision was the result of careful consideration.

Tong Qisheng glanced at him, as if he had anticipated his words. His lips curled up slightly, revealing a reassuring smile. "No problem, I agree. Director Gao actually told me earlier that he wanted me to bring you into Guoan. With such a great opportunity right before your eyes, you'd be a fool not to seize it."

When Zhao Lin heard this, he was immediately overjoyed.

A bright smile spread across his face, and it seemed as if the whole world had become brighter. "Thank you, Brother Tong! I will definitely do my best!"

Tong Qisheng waved his hand. "Don't be too happy yet. We are different from other members of the National Security Bureau. We are mainly investigating moles in secret, so we need a reasonable work identity as a cover. As for you, you can continue to work in the Criminal Investigation Team. This will make it more convenient for us to carry out our work."

Yu Hai listened from the side and smiled as he put his arm around Zhao Lin's shoulders. "How about it, are you excited? This is just the beginning. Think about all the cases we handled in Kyoto. This is nothing."

At this moment, the dog Lai Fu in front of them turned into an alley. Everyone hurriedly followed him, fearing that they would miss any important clues.

Lai Fu squatted at the gate of a small courtyard, staring intently at the direction of the intersection.

Seeing its owner's father following, it suddenly jumped onto the wall, its movements as agile as a nimble leopard.

It skillfully removed the bolt from the door, as if it was something it did often.

Yu Hai wanted to touch Lai Fu's head to show his appreciation, but Lai Fu easily dodged him, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes.

Yu Hai opened his hands helplessly and muttered softly, "This head is so precious, I won't even let you touch it."

Lai Fu rolled his eyes at him, as if to say, "I'm working, don't bother me!" Then, he turned and ran towards the backyard. Everyone followed closely behind, their hearts filled with curiosity and anticipation.

Finally, Laifu stopped at the entrance of a cellar in a hidden corner without saying a word. It stood there quietly, as if waiting for the next instruction from its master.

Zhao Lin ran to the entrance of the cellar and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration: "Wow, this dog is really extraordinary. It's so quiet. It's a powerful character. It can even find such a hidden cellar."

Tong Qisheng lifted the wooden board covering the entrance to the cellar and frowned as he said, "It's got a mechanism. Why does it feel like the mechanism in an ancient tomb? Why is it designed this way?"

"Haizi, go to the intersection to pick up the others. Don't let them get lost here and waste time." Tong Qisheng ordered decisively.

Yu Hai nodded, turned and ran towards the intersection.

After Tong Qisheng gave the order, he followed Lai Fu into the cellar first, and Zhao Lin hurriedly followed.

A damp smell filled the tunnel. Zhao Lin quickly pulled a flashlight from his backpack and switched it on. A bright beam instantly illuminated the dim passage ahead.

Tong Qisheng couldn't help but laugh as he watched Zhao Lin's skilled manipulations. "Hey, Linzi, you've been a police officer for quite some time now. You've got all the tools you need. You even carry a flashlight with you at all times, in your bag."

There was a hint of sarcasm in Tong Qisheng's words, but more of it was recognition of Zhao Lin.

Zhao Lin also chuckled twice and explained, "This is just in case. Who knows when it might come in handy?"

After saying this, he continued to shine his flashlight ahead and walked forward cautiously. Tong Qisheng followed closely behind him, their footsteps echoing in the tunnel.

The two followed the dog all the way and finally crawled out of the tunnel.

As soon as he emerged from the tunnel, Tong Qisheng exclaimed in surprise, "This... this place seems so familiar! Oh, isn't this the mountain behind the 'Retirement Home'? The military camp is at the foot of the mountain in front, and Tianshui Village is in the valley behind."

Zhao Lin panted and nodded, saying, "That's right. This is such a coincidence that we ended up right here in your unit. And this place is quite hidden. When was this tunnel built?"

"Laifu" was calling happily in front, as if urging Tong Qisheng and Zhao Lin to catch up with it quickly.

It turned around a few times, chasing its tail for a while, which was very cute. Then it continued to run forward.

After a long while, Yu Hai and the others came out of the tunnel.

As soon as he came out, he shouted, "No way, 'Lai Fu' wouldn't take us directly back to its hometown, right? Isn't this the front mountain of Tianshui Village?" There was a hint of surprise and confusion in Yu Hai's voice.

Tong Qisheng glanced thoughtfully at the nearby retirement home, then turned to Director Xiang and said, "Director Xiang, quickly find a way to get your family out. We need to have a good talk."

Director Xiang looked at Tong Qisheng in surprise. He didn't understand how Tong Qisheng knew Director Xiang was his relative. His heart was filled with doubts, but he nodded and prepared to contact Director Xiang.

Yu Hai rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully: "This dog led us all the way, could it be that he wanted to take us to the 'Retirement Home'? Didn't Captain Wu clean up there twice before?" Yu Hai's words were full of doubts and thoughts.

Tong Qisheng frowned upon hearing this. He said worriedly, "Think about the situation in Kyoto. How many high-ranking officials have been bribed and corrupted? What about the 'Retirement Home'? The people living there are human beings too. They have their own selfish desires, emotions, and desires."

Shang Yongming continued, "Even if we can find the murderer who killed Tang Liu, it won't be easy to dig out the person behind it."

Old Cai glanced at Shang Yongming and interrupted, "Are you worried that the murderer will be silenced?"

Everyone was silent for a moment, a tense atmosphere in the air, and then they followed Lai Fu into the woods.

In the woods, the trees are tall and dense, and the sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves, forming golden spots of light.

Not long after they left, they came across the body of a man who had just been killed. The body was lying on the ground, bleeding from the wounds on its body, and the surrounding land was stained dark red.

After seeing this, Zhao Lin couldn't help but sigh, "This speed is too fast! We just caught up with him, and he was already silenced. He didn't even have a chance to breathe!"

Tong Qisheng walked forward and carefully examined the body. His expression became more serious. "It seems our opponents are very cunning. They don't want us to find any clues."

Yu Hai looked at the corpse and said with gritted teeth, "These guys are so despicable, pure scum. We must make them pay the price!"
