Jumping out of the taxi, Xiao Yi quickened his pace and tightly pursued the van ahead. The road had narrowed and there were fewer vehicles around. If he continued to follow by taxi, he would have been too obvious, and the target would definitely have noticed. Without hesitation, he made a snap decision to follow on foot.
Moreover, he had a strong feeling that the suspects would not go much further from here. One of their hideouts had to be nearby.
Indeed, after slowly moving forward, turning a corner, and passing two streets, the van gradually came to a stop in front of a village house. A man jumped out from the driver's seat, glanced around, then knocked on the house's door.
Soon, the big door of the village house opened, and a man stuck his head out, chatting and laughing with the man who had knocked. After their brief exchange, the man who had knocked got back into the vehicle and drove the van into the village house.
