Chen Xincheng then left reluctantly.

Two police cars drove out of the police station gate. Li Dawei, Yang Shu, and others were in a large truck behind them, with a total of seven or eight people on board.

Li Dawei said, "Goodness, so many people are going? How many should we arrest?"

Chen Xincheng said irritably, "One isn't enough?"

Li Dawei exclaimed dramatically, "Does arresting just one person require so many people?"

Chen Xincheng retorted, "Then how many do you want to go? To play the role of a lone hero in a one-on-one fight? To go and fight him to the death?" Everyone burst into laughter.

Li Dawei thought for a moment: "One-on-one is a bit of an exaggeration, how about three against one?"

Chen Xincheng ignored him: "Say less, no one will think you're mute."

Next, Gao Chao introduced the target: "Attention everyone, the suspect's name is Ding Dayong. He has two murders on his hands and is a Class A wanted criminal by the Ministry."

"This job should have been given to the criminal police, but the situation was urgent, so they notified us directly, giving everyone a chance to earn merit. He has a gun, so he'll follow orders! Listen to Chief Li on the way; I'm going to take a nap first."

After finishing his climax, Gao smiled at Li Mu, tilted his head back in his seat, and quickly started snoring.

Li Dawei was still not giving up. He turned to Yang Shu and whispered, "Seven or eight people against one is too exaggerated."

Yang Shu said, "Didn't you hear? The other party is a desperate criminal with two lives on his hands, and he's carrying a gun."

Chen Xincheng nodded to himself when he heard Yang Shu speak.

Li Dawei said, "So what? Two or three can take care of one, right? We can definitely handle him."

Li Mu laughed and said, "You think we police officers are all superheroes? Do you know what the first thing you have to do when you join the police force is to protect yourself? Only by protecting yourself can you have the energy and mindset to protect others."

Li Dawei was speechless. After thinking for a moment, he wanted to say something more.

Just then, Chen Xincheng opened his eyes and scolded Li Dawei, "You're such a troublemaker. Can't you see everyone else is resting?"

Li Dawei whispered, "Everyone should rest, but someone needs to keep watch, right?"

Chen Xincheng said stiffly, "Then just keep up your sentry duties and stop talking so much."

Li Dawei belatedly realized: "Officer Chen, do you have a problem with me?"

Chen Xincheng said bluntly, "I do have a problem with you. From now on, if it's something you need to do, take the lead; if it's not, stay back. Don't go looking for trouble and drag me into it!"

Li Dawei's stubbornness flared up again: "What do you mean it's none of my business? Aren't police officers here to catch bad guys?"

Chen Xincheng was so angry that his face turned ashen: "Shut your mouth! Everyone is resting. Your noise is disturbing everyone. How will we have the energy to arrest people tonight?"

Li Dawei said, "Fine, I won't say it then. What do you think...?"

Li Mu opened his eyes and said, "Say less, we still have a long way to go, take a nap."

……

More than ten minutes later, a police car stopped in front of a farmer's house. The police surrounded the farmer's house before a group of people went up and knocked on the door.

Inside lived an elderly couple in their sixties or seventies. Gao Chao said gently, "Grandpa, this is a routine check-up. Please cooperate."

The two elderly people simply nodded without saying a word.

Li Mu, Chen Xincheng, and Li Dawei acted swiftly, each entering the east and west rooms to search. Li Mu entered the west room and saw the bed in disarray. Without making a sound, he reached out and touched the blankets. Li Dawei did the same, and the two exchanged a glance. The blankets were still warm, indicating that the person had definitely left recently.

Inside the living room, the two elderly people looked somewhat nervous. They took a few steps back with unsteady steps and sat down in front of a cabinet, their bodies trembling.

Yang Shu felt a little sorry for them, so he pulled up a chair and sat down next to them: "Grandpa, Grandma, Ding Dayong has broken the law and cannot escape legal punishment."

"But if he turns himself in, he can be given a lighter sentence. This is his last chance. He shouldn't be so stubborn. You should try to persuade him and work on him."

Chapter 355 Turmoil

Li Mu and Li Dawei came out of the west room and looked around. The room was not small and there was a lot of empty space. The old couple had placed two chairs in front of the wardrobe. The placement of the chairs looked a bit awkward and was obviously meant to hide people.

Not only did the police officers present notice it, but Li Dawei also noticed it.

Only Yang Shu didn't see anything amiss and was still trying to persuade the two elderly people to convince their son to turn himself in.

Li Mu looked at the poplar tree, gave Li Dawei a wink, and Li Dawei nodded in understanding and walked towards the poplar tree.

Li Mu took two steps back without making a sound and went to the west room again. There was a side door leading to the courtyard, but it was locked with a bolt. He walked over and quietly pulled the bolt open, then returned to the main room.

Li Dawei had already pulled Yang Shu outside, saying as they walked, "Yang Shu, come out for a bit, I have something to tell you."

Yang Shu followed him out of the house, puzzled, and asked, "What is it? Why do you have to tell me now?"

Gao Chao glanced at Li Dawei with some surprise, then saw Li Mu come out of the house and shout, "Fall back!"

Yang Shu also sensed that something was wrong, so he stopped asking questions. All the police officers left in an orderly manner. As soon as they left the courtyard, the old lady immediately closed the gate tightly.

Yang Shu looked at the tightly closed gate and asked doubtfully, "Director Gao, could the intelligence be wrong?"

Gao Chao made a shushing gesture, pulled him to the intersection ahead, and then whispered, "That's right, Ding Dayong is at home."

Yang Shu was taken aback: "At home! Where are you?"

Li Dawei interjected, "Where is it? It's in the wardrobe in the back, of course!"

"What?" Yang Shu was taken aback.

Gao Chao patted Yang Shu: "Otherwise, why would Li Dawei tell you to leave? Didn't you realize it?"

Seeing Yang Shu's puzzled look, Gao Chao said, "Li Dawei, you tell me."

Li Dawei immediately perked up and explained, "We checked the west room. The quilt he slept in was still warm. Think about it, there are only three rooms. Besides the wardrobe, where else could someone hide?"

Yang Shu asked in surprise, "Could it be that based on this alone, we can be sure he's in the closet?"

Li Dawei shook his head: "Of course, it's not just what I heard. Think about it, they have a sofa and a bed, why would two elderly people insist on sitting in front of the wardrobe? And putting two bulky chairs in front of the wardrobe, both the placement and the arrangement are quite awkward. Do you think that's reasonable?"

Gao Chao nodded in satisfaction and said, "Li Dawei, you're good! You've done a great job on your first day at the station. Okay, I'll remember you!"

Li Dawei said with some pride, "Thank you, Director Gao!"

Yang Shu felt a little disappointed. He glanced at Li Dawei and then lowered his head.

Li Mu patted him on the shoulder: "Don't be discouraged. Just get more experience and you'll be fine. Actually, your performance just now was quite appropriate. At least it made the suspect's family believe that we really believed the suspect wasn't home and that we were truly back in action, which made the next operation easier!"

Yang Shu said, "Thank you, Director Li."

Chen Xincheng had been observing from the sidelines. He didn't like newcomers being too flamboyant, especially someone like Li Dawei. He also didn't like seeing newcomers get discouraged, so he chimed in, "Yang Shu, don't be discouraged. Like Li said, it's nothing. Police academy students study this in college, so it's normal that they can tell. You're a graduate student from Peking University, but you didn't study this professionally, so it's normal that you don't know much about these miscellaneous things. As long as you go on more missions and see more of it, it'll be no problem at all."

Yang Shu nodded and said to Chen Xincheng, "Brother Chen, I will try my best!"

Li Mu said, "Alright, both newcomers are promising talents. Let's discuss how to proceed."

Gao Chao said, "Li is right. Since the person is at home, our most important task now is to catch him. Let's all share our thoughts."

Li Mu said, "Judging from the way this family hides people in a closet, a place that's easy to spot, they don't seem like the kind of slippery, cunning people who have multiple burrows."

"If we leave like this, the old lady will lock the gate, and I guess she'll just come out."

Gao Chao said, "We've got the same idea. That's simple, we can just rush in and arrest them."

Li Mu nodded and said, "Just now, I unlatched the latch on the west room of their house. This time, we can just climb over the wall and go in without knocking on the main door of the house, so as not to alert them. We can just sneak in through the west room."

Those present had their eyes light up, and Gao Chao exclaimed, "That makes it even easier!"

He then looked at Li Mu and said, "Chief Li, how about we take a few police officers in to arrest him, and have Brother Chen and the two new guys guard outside? This is the only exit of his alley."

Li Mu readily agreed!

Li Dawei was a little anxious: "I want to follow Gao Suo!"

Chen Xincheng glared at him: "What? You think you're something special just because you found some clues, or are you afraid I'll eat you? Enough with the nonsense, just obey orders!"

Li Dawei nodded dejectedly: "Okay!"

So Chen Xincheng, Yang Shu, and Li Dawei stood guard at the intersection. Li Mu and Gao Chao led several police officers to sneak over again.

When they arrived at the courtyard again, one of the officers took two steps back and was about to climb over the wall when Li Mu gestured to him and whispered, "Let me do it. Check the situation first, then open the door."

As he spoke, he lightly leaped up, grabbed the edge of the wall with both hands, and poked half his head out to survey the situation in the yard.

The main hall door was tightly closed, and the courtyard was empty, with nothing in sight.

Only then did she feel relieved. Like a nimble cat, she lightly vaulted over the wall and landed silently. The police officers were somewhat surprised by her swift and decisive movements.

Upon entering the courtyard, Li Mu observed that everything was normal. He quietly walked over and opened the courtyard gate, and the people waiting outside also cautiously entered.

The group crept over quietly and listened through the doors and windows of the main room. They happened to hear the suspect talking to his parents inside.

The group was immediately relieved.

They quietly made their way to the side door of the west room, slowly pulled it open, and the group went inside without a sound.

Inside the main room, Ding Dayong was standing there talking to his parents when Li Mu pounced on him, pinned him to the ground, and cuffed him with a click.

One of the police officers had already opened the door to the main room with quick movements. Li Mu and another police officer, one on each side, pressed Ding Dayong and walked quickly outside.

When Ding Dayong's parents realized what was happening, they immediately started crying and making a scene, trying to rush over, but were stopped by Gao Chao and another police officer. Only after Li Mu escorted Ding Dayong out of the courtyard did the two of them hurriedly follow.

Li Mu and his companion escorted the man out of the alley, followed by Gao Chao and another police officer.

Ding Dayong's parents followed behind, crying.

Suddenly, the old lady stumbled. Yang Shu, who was heading towards the police car under Chen Xincheng's guidance, instinctively wanted to run back to check on her.

Upon seeing this, Gao Chao quickly turned around and shouted, "Yang Shu, what are you doing! Hurry up and follow!"
