Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 368 The storm is rising
At nine o'clock in the morning on January 30, Tian Kecong, director of the Second Criminal Investigation Division of the Municipal Bureau, accompanied by Jin Zhihai, deputy team leader of Group One, and two members of Group One, came to the Public Security Hospital to find Li Yancheng and conducted the first formal interrogation and record of his statement after the incident.

This shooting is now the city's top crime.

Although the manhunt had been stopped, the investigation into the deceased security officer at Taifeng First Chemical Plant had officially begun.

As a party to the shooting case and one of the people who had a clear encounter with the gunman, what Li Yancheng said is crucial.

After the incident last night, Jin Zhihai was called away by the department to do other investigations. Although he heard from others that his good brother was fine, he was still very nervous.

It was not until the director brought him here and saw with his own eyes that the person was indeed fine that he felt relieved.

Li Yancheng recounted in detail the scene he and Director Liu saw at around eight o'clock last night, as well as what happened next, even describing some details clearly.

"Chief Li, are you saying that when the man was retreating, he suddenly turned around and fired a shot while running, and that shot was also very accurate?"

"Yes, I was startled by his shot. I could even see the dust flying up when the bullet hit the wall less than 20 centimeters away from me.

It was this shot that made me retreat back behind the pile of debris and dare not show my head again. After the duty officer from the hospital and our bureau came out, we chased after him together.

The alley was slightly curved, and after he turned the curve, we who were chasing him could no longer see him.

By the time we chased them out of the alley and onto the main road, we had completely lost the target. At that time, I led three people from our Social Affairs Bureau to chase them to the north, while the four duty officers from your bureau's Security Department chased them to the south.

Because it was dark, we suspected that he might hide in a corner, so we didn't chase him fast or far. We only chased him for one block and then returned to the entrance of the alley.

Just then, the comrades from the local police station and the Chengdong Branch arrived, and they drove on to chase the suspect.”

The garbage dump where the clothes, hat and gun were found was at the second intersection to the south. It was discovered around 10 o'clock last night.

But it is estimated that the gunman ran south after coming out of the crime scene, threw away his things here, changed into clothes prepared in advance, and then left.

It is very likely that this person was stopped and searched on the way to escape, but because he had changed his clothes, he was released after registration.

Now, after the incident that night, all the checkpoints set up in the east of the city have been recorded, and middle-aged men around 40 years old have become the key targets of investigation.

"Chief Li, the gunman has not been caught yet. You should be more vigilant and pay attention to safety when you go in and out during this period."

"Thank you Director Tian for the reminder. I will."

"Do you think this gunman is related to Yan Jiaye?"

Director Tian's sudden question made Li Yancheng slightly stunned.

Logically speaking, it should be impossible, but there is no guarantee that it might be someone else from the Yan family. After all, it is very easy for the Yan family to find a trained and experienced gunman.

"Director Tian, ​​I really don't dare to say this casually."

"Chief Li, I know you have mastered a very special interrogation method. Do you think it is necessary to interrogate the Yan family?"

"It depends on the leader's arrangement. I am the person involved in the shooting incident. Judging from the situation at the scene, the gunman was coming for me. Director Tian, ​​you also know that according to regulations, I cannot interfere in this case.

Besides, this is your police case, I have no opinion on how to investigate it or whether to interrogate the Yan family members. "

Although he was already filled with rage, Li Yancheng knew very well what to say and what not to say.

Jin Zhihai, who was in charge of recording, raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and looked at his good brother calmly. They had been playing together since childhood and knew each other's tempers well.

Although he could feel that his childhood friend's personality had changed a lot in the past two years, the overall change was not big.

Looking at that calm face, he could feel that if the gunman appeared in front of his good brother at this moment, he would definitely be torn to pieces.

In fact, he also thought so. He had just dealt with the one the day before yesterday, and another one came last night. He felt a headache for his good brother.

After all, a thief can only steal for a thousand days, but you can't guard against thieves for a thousand days.

If this gunman is not caught quickly, who knows what will happen next. Even though he lost his gun last night, who can say for sure if he has other guns in his hands?

Maybe it was intentional.

It is easy to say "be vigilant" with only four words, and it can be said in a snap, but only the person involved knows how painful it is.

It's mainly psychological pressure.

From today on, Luo Min moved back into the Luo family. Luo Yang sent her to work this morning. Her safety will be the responsibility of Luo Yang for the next period of time.

Li Yancheng is a little conflicted now.

Originally, he wanted to leave the front line, focus on the cancer project, and bide his time for a while.

But after the shooting last night, he changed his mind.

He wanted to fight those criminals to the death at all costs.

He believed that the gunman last night was just an executor, and there must be someone behind the scenes directing him.

He wanted to see which god wanted to kill him.

He planned to have some fun with them to see whether he was just lucky or those people were hiding something.

But whenever he thought of his pregnant wife, his heart would immediately soften.

He could do anything he wanted, but he couldn't, and he had no right to, make his wife and future children go crazy with him.

"Snapped"

Just as he was lost in thought, an arm was placed on his shoulder, waking him up from his thoughts. The owner of the arm was his good brother Jin Zhihai.

The questioning was over, and Director Tian left with the other two people.

Jin Zhihai did not leave. He told their leader and planned to have a good talk with his good brother.

"I know what you're thinking."

Before he could say anything, Jin Zhihai spoke first.

"I personally don't think it's necessary to fight to the death with the mastermind behind the scenes. His purpose may be to do this to you. Dacheng, have you ever thought about this?"

"what?"

"Why would someone be so eager to kill you? The incident the day before yesterday doesn't count. That was for a special reason. He wanted to kill you to save his own son. I feel the reason behind last night's shooting is not that simple."

"You mean to say that the person behind the gunman last night wanted to kill me not because of my special interrogation methods?"

"Yes, I don't think so."

"Why do you think so?" Li Yancheng was a little confused and curious.

"It's just a feeling."

Jin Zhihai didn't say anything in a hurry. Instead, he used a little force on his arms, took Li Yancheng a few steps to the side, then took out a cigarette and lit it for both of them before speaking softly.

"Dacheng, you told me the other day that you were involved in a national medical project. I don't know what your project is about, but it must be very important to be approved by the state.

Is it possible that…”

Although he hadn't finished speaking, his meaning was very clear, and Li Yancheng's eyes widened after hearing what his good brother said.

is it possible?
This is so possible!
If the person who assassinated him really did so for this reason, then the conspiracy behind it would be terrifying.

The deep-seated reason for launching this cancer medical project was, on the one hand, to find a breakthrough in cancer treatment methods, but there was another unknown reason why Director Liu originally established this project.

This unknown is only relative. If the General Hospital can approve it, at least the hospital leaders must know the reason.

Although only half a month has passed, it is obvious to all that the more than ten patients treated by him have been able to prevent further deterioration of their condition.

Many people know about this matter. After all, this project is not confidential.

If patients can live a very good life after his treatment, even if they need frequent acupuncture, it means that his treatment method is feasible.

If nothing unexpected happens, the next step will be for him to provide treatment to that person. If that person continues to be alive and can work normally as if nothing happened, it will really block the way for too many people.

hiss……

Li Yancheng felt a toothache.

Not only does my tooth hurt, my liver hurts too.

If the assassination attempt on him was due to this reason, he really had nowhere to complain.

"Have you thought of something?"

"I don't know" Li Yancheng shook his head.

"What you said is possible, but..."

After hesitating for a moment, he raised his hand and patted Jin Zhihai's arm.

"Brother, there are things I can't say directly."

“I understand. I said all this just to make you consider whether the mastermind behind this might have other intentions and not want to pry into anything.

Sigh... Dacheng, to be honest, I really regret not persuading you and letting you go to the Social Affairs Bureau."

"Haha! Everything is destined by fate. I was seconded here to work as a doctor in the clinic. Who could have thought that it would come to this?

It’s nothing, I feel pretty good, the only thing that worries me is my wife.”

"Where did you let your wife stay these two days?"

"Let's go back to her parents' home first."

"Well, she's pregnant now, so she really needs to be extra careful.

By the way, I have already told my informants to pay attention as well.

Dacheng, if any of them finds the gunman, do you plan to do it yourself or follow the formal procedures? "

"Don't let your imagination run wild. Just follow your normal procedures. This matter has become so serious. It's not as simple as the one the day before yesterday."

“Okay,” Jin Zhihai nodded, “I have an idea now that you put it that way.

That's it, I'll go first. You should be more careful when you go out and come in these two days. Has your department arranged someone to be with you?" "Yes, you can go and do your work. I will pay attention."

"it is good"

……

"Xiaojiu, have you heard about what happened last night?"

"There was such a big commotion last night, and they searched every house. He must have heard about it. That guy is really brave. He even dared to shoot at the gate of the Public Security Hospital. He must have had enough of his life."

Xiaojiu, also known as Zhang Jiufu, was sleeping at home at noon when someone came to tell him that Zhu Yongyang wanted to talk to him about something urgent. He quickly put on his clothes and went to Zhu's house.

As soon as I walked in and hadn't even sat down, I heard his brother Zhu mention what happened last night.

When Xiaojiu heard this, he immediately curled his lips and said.

"I don't know if he has lived long enough, but he has escaped. But even if the monk can escape, the temple cannot. We have to find this guy."

When Zhu Yongyang said this, he was gritting his teeth.

Hearing Brother Zhu's tone, Xiao Jiu was stunned for a moment: "Brother, is this case taken by Brother Jin and his team?"

In his opinion, the only people who could make Brother Zhu pay so much attention to this matter, apart from Brother Jin who had made a greeting, not even the people in the local police station could do so.

"Zhi Hai did say hello." Zhu Yongyang nodded, reached out to pick up a cigarette on the table and threw it to Xiao Jiu, then lit one for himself. After exhaling the cigarette he had inhaled into his mouth, he continued.

"However, this case is no longer a question of who takes it. Didn't you see the commotion last night? Not only Chengdong and Yangchao, but the entire city was mobilized.

What I want to say is, even if Zhihai didn’t say hello, we still have to find that kid from last night.

Do you know why, Xiaojiu?"

"I don't know." Xiao Jiu shook his head honestly and looked at Zhu Yongyang with some curiosity.

He knew that this brother was not the kind of person who liked to meddle in other people's affairs. He must have a reason for saying so.

"Because the man shot Dacheng last night. He wanted to kill Dacheng."

"what?!"

With a swish, Xiaojiu stood up with a look of shock on his face.

"Brother, are you telling the truth?"

"Nonsense, why would I lie to you about this?" Zhu Yongyang glanced at Xiaojiu with his eyes squinted.

"So, go and greet our brothers and tell them what I said. Tell them to keep their eyes open and remember that they are middle-aged men around 40 years old, thin, about 1.7 to 1.75 meters tall, and have received training, especially formal training."

"Special formal training?" Xiao Jiu nodded heavily: "I understand, brother. I will go and inform them now."

"Well, go ahead. Also, tell them clearly that if they see any suspicious persons, they must not alert them."

"clear"

Seeing that Brother Zhu said nothing more, Xiaojiu got up and walked out of the house.

After he left, Zhu Yongyang was not idle either. He sat there and thought for a while before going out. He wanted to go over and say hello to several other people he knew who were in the underworld and could be called brother or grandpa, and ask them to help keep an eye out.

He was grateful to his two old classmates, Jin Zhihai and Li Yancheng. Both of them had helped him before, and it was a very simple kind of help, without them ever expecting him to do anything for them.

He sent rice, noodles and oil to the two families every month. He did it voluntarily because he didn't know how to repay them. Despite this, people never accepted his things for nothing. They always paid him in full and never took advantage of him.

Of course, he had his own reasons for doing so.

The people he deals with the most in his line of work are the police. Jin Zhihai works in the Municipal Bureau and is currently a deputy team leader. If he encounters any problems, he can help him more or less.

The same goes for Li Yancheng.

There is nothing wrong with the interactions between adults being mixed with interests.

Now someone wants to touch Li Yancheng, which means touching one of his trump cards, and he will definitely be angry.

Suddenly, there was a turmoil and people from the police, social security bureau, and the underworld all took action.

……

Let's shift our focus to the gunman for a moment.

At around 8 o'clock in the evening on the 29th, when he ran out of Yinzha Hutong, he turned directly south.

But after turning around and running a few steps, he rode a bicycle that had been prepared here long ago.

When the people chasing him arrived at the entrance of the alley, he had already pedaled his bicycle through the first street intersection heading south.

It was cloudy these two days, there was no moon in the sky, and there were not many lights on the road, and they were dim. In addition, the weather was cold, so there were not many people on the streets.

There is no planning, and many houses on both sides of the road are privately built. They are protruding here and sunken there, and are uneven.

Standing on the side of the road and looking north and south, you can't see very far.

After Li Yancheng and his men chased out of the alley and onto the main road, they could not see any human figures on the north and south sides due to the poor light, so they could only separate hastily, one team on each side.

They were already dozens of meters slower than the gunman, and after he came out he rode his bicycle. It would be strange if they could catch up with him.

When the gunman rode to the second street corner in the south, he pulled out the clothes he had prepared long ago near the garbage dump, threw away his coat and hat along with the pistol, put on another coat, and rode his bike back to his destination.

Because he was well prepared, he jumped out of the police blockade first and waited until he reached his destination. He did not encounter any police along the way, let alone be questioned.

The destination was also where he worked, located at the junction of Chengdong and Wenchong District 2. It belonged to an enamel factory in Wenchong, where he was a boiler worker.

After putting his bicycle away, he walked along the outer wall of the factory to the back, then climbed over the wall to enter the factory. The boiler room where he worked happened to be right here.

When he entered the boiler room, there was a man inside who was adding coal to the boiler with a shovel. Hearing the noise coming from behind him, the man who was adding coal straightened up and turned around.

The gunman who just came in from outside looked almost exactly like the man who was adding coal. They were actually twins.

After seeing who came in, the man who added coal didn't say anything, just nodded, turned around, shoveled up some coal with a shovel and threw a few shovels into the boiler, then put down the shovel and slowly walked to the gunman who was changing into work clothes.

"How about it?"

"I met someone today, but failed."

Upon hearing that he had failed, the person who had just taken out the coal stopped his hand in mid-air.

"What do you mean by failure? Didn't find the opportunity?"

"No, I fired four shots in total."

"After firing four shots, we still failed?" The man who added coal frowned deeply.

"At what distance did you fire the gun?"

"The first three shots were all fired at a distance of more than ten meters." The gunman's brows were tightly furrowed.

On the way back just now, the scenes that happened before kept replaying in his mind.

He couldn't figure out how the young man dodged the first and second shots.

The first shot he fired was actually a test to be precise. After all, it was his first time using that gun and he didn't know much about the gun, so the first shot was just to get a feel for it.

After the first bullet was loaded, he knew what was wrong with the gun, so the second shot that followed was actually fatal.

But what he didn't expect was that the young man seemed to have seen through his disguise and made a prediction the moment he fired, successfully dodged the first two shots, causing his third shot to miss.

The young man shot him back. He saw it clearly. The guy didn't even show his head. He just fired a shot in his direction based on his memory and accurately hit the telephone pole where he was hiding.

The shot did give him a fright and forced him to evacuate quickly.

After listening to the gunman's description, the man who was adding coal opened his mouth so wide that a goose egg could fit in it.

"Brother, do you mean that person discovered your intention in advance?"

“No,” the gunman shook his head. “I don’t think he discovered anything in advance. He just had a premonition, so he took evasive action before I shot.”

"This...he...he has never been to the battlefield, how could he have such a strong premonition?" The man who added coal looked incredulous.

"It's hard to say. Maybe it's innate." The gunman shook his head depressedly.

"Let's not talk about this, Erqiang. Go back quickly. The bicycle is in the old place. Push it home. We won't be able to do anything for a long time.

Today's operation failed, and the Public Security Bureau and the Social Affairs Bureau must be shocked. I estimate that there may not be any opportunities to take action in the next few months. Fortunately, there is no set time over there, so we can wait until this New Year is over before we do anything.

Hey Erqiang, I almost forgot to ask, are you sure the application won't lead to you?"

The Shen Wen mentioned by the gunman is the security officer who died at Taifeng Chemical Factory.

“Sure, didn’t I tell you that he and I have only dealt with each other a few times in the ghost market? Today’s transaction is the first time we have met in the daytime.

If you check his surrounding relationships, you won't be able to find me."

"As long as you are sure, that's all. Now go back. Be careful when you go out so that no one sees you."

"I know, let's go, brother."

"Um"

The gunman breathed a sigh of relief as he watched his brother take off his dirty work clothes, peek at the boiler room door for a while, then waved goodbye.

He raised his hands and rubbed his face hard a few times, as if he was rubbing away all the depression on his face. After putting his hands down, he lit a cigarette for himself, pulled over a small stool and sat down there.

He and his brother had worked hard for half a month on an investigation, but all of it was wasted because of today's failure, which really made him upset.

Now we have to start all over again next time we take action, and the key is that we don’t know when the next time will be.

Moreover, because of this alerting the enemy, the difficulty of the next operation will definitely increase. How could he not be depressed to the point of wanting to vomit blood?
