The Hunter's Path: Starting as a constable, ascend to the Old Ones.

The next morning.

Lu Ming killed Cao Charlie and others last night, and after reporting the incident to the police, he went to the police station to handle a series of follow-up matters.

Because Lu Ming used a clever trick to switch the gun, he directly confirmed that Cao Charlie and his group were guilty of assaulting the police with a gun. The gangsters present did not know that Cao Charlie was holding a fake gun, and when giving their statements, they all testified that Cao Charlie was pointing the gun at Lu Ming at the time.

Therefore, they indirectly proved that Lu Ming's actions were in self-defense.

Moreover, since Cao Charlie was Zhu Tao's strategist, and Lu Ming had personally arrested Zhu Tao, and in the eyes of outsiders, he had infiltrated the situation to "turn" Shalena into a faction, persuading her to appear in court as a prosecution witness, which ultimately led to Zhu Tao being sent to prison.

Therefore, it is perfectly logical for Zhu Tao to take revenge on Lu Ming after being released on bail.

Lu Ming gave a statement at the police station and was then granted permission to leave. He went home, had a good night's sleep, and returned to the police station the next day feeling refreshed.

He had just stepped into the Major Crimes Unit when he suddenly heard Tang Zhen shout excitedly:

"I don't believe Inspector Chan would be that kind of person!"

"I worked with Ka-Kui for many years and I know him best. He would never kill his own man."

Jin Dazui has unwavering trust in Chen Jiaju.

"Yes, Inspector Chan is usually quite impulsive, but he's also very loyal and righteous. He doesn't seem like the type to kill Inspector Man. Could there be some hidden story behind this?"

The female police officer who worked in the same serious crime unit agreed with what Jin Dazui said.

"Could it be that Zhu Tao framed Inspector Chen? Last night, Inspector Lu was ambushed by Zhu Tao's strategist, Cao Charlie, on his way home. Now Inspector Chen is in trouble too. Isn't this too much of a coincidence?"

The colleagues in the Major Crimes Unit were buzzing with discussion, turning the usually serious unit into a noisy marketplace.

Wen Jianren was shot dead!?

Lu Ming's gaze sharpened. It had been some time since he last saw Wen Jianren, and he never expected to learn of his death again.

Thinking about this, he felt a pang of remorse, realizing he had wasted a life.

He had his eye on Wen Jianren's head a long time ago, but someone else snatched it away.

You murderer, you deserve to die!

"Ah Ming, you're finally here. Something terrible has happened. Inspector Man has been shot and killed, and Ka Kui has been identified as the murderer..."

"The commissioner is preparing to issue an arrest warrant, what should we do?"

"Where did Ka-Kui go? We can't get in touch with him no matter what we do."

When Jin Dazui and the others saw Lu Ming, their eyes lit up immediately. They rushed over and started talking all at once about Chen Jiaju's crime. Apparently, someone had reported early that morning that Wen Jianren's body had been found in the countryside of Rose Village in Tai Po District. After the forensic examination, three bullets were found in Wen Jianren's fatal wound. After forensic examination, it was found that all three bullets were fired from Chen Jiaju's service pistol.

At that very moment, they were unable to contact anyone at the entire police station.

All the evidence pointed to Chan Ka-kui, who had "committed the crime and fled."

Although his colleagues in the Serious Crimes Unit did not believe that Chan Ka-kui was a murderer, according to normal procedures, Chan Ka-kui had already been classified as a criminal suspect. At the same time, the police station was preparing to issue an arrest warrant, intending to arrest Chan Ka-kui as soon as possible and find out the truth of the whole matter.

Looking at his colleagues who had gathered around, Lu Ming immediately stated his position, "I believe that Jiaju is not that kind of person. There may be some unknown circumstances involved."

"Inspector Lu, the chief wants to see you."

Just then, a female civilian police officer from the director's office came over to inform Lu Ming.

"I'll be right there."

Lu Ming nodded to the other officers from the Major Crimes Unit, then followed the policewoman. He guessed that the chief had probably called him because of the shooting of Wen Jianren by Chen Jiaju.

……

"Reporting to the Director, PC9848 is here to report."

Lu Ming entered and saluted the director. He glanced at the director and Uncle Biao, both of whom had dark faces. It seemed that Chen Jiaju's matter had brought them considerable trouble.

Shooting one's own colleague is a cardinal sin for police officers.

Once Chan Ka-kui is convicted of this crime, not only will he be in trouble, but the Central Police Station will also be implicated.

The chief placed his fingers interlaced on the table, sighed, and said, "Ah Ming, I have some heavy news to tell you: Officer Wen Jianren has died in the line of duty."

"I had already heard when I came in that Mr. Man had always taken good care of me, but I never expected things to happen so suddenly."

A trace of sadness flashed in Lu Ming's eyes. The white heads, why didn't they belong to him?

The director glanced at Lu Ming, hesitated, and finally coughed, "Uncle Biao, you should tell A-Ming the details!"

Uncle Biao looked like he'd been tricked. Everyone in the Major Crimes Unit knew that Wen Jianren valued Lu Ming highly. Lu Ming had always been highly regarded in Wen Jianren's team, and the two had always been considered to have a very close relationship.

Now that Wen Jianren has died at the hands of Chen Jiaju, how should Lu Ming view this matter?

Uncle Biao sighed in distress, "Officer Wen Jianren was shot three times in the chest. After comparison by the bullet wound identification department, it can be confirmed that all three bullets were fired from Jiaju's service weapon. The key issue now is that we can't contact Jiaju and don't know what happened at the time."

Contact?

I bet Chan Ka-kui is fast asleep somewhere right now!

Lu Ming thought to himself, according to the plot he knew, Zhu Tao used Wen Jianren's death to frame Chen Jiaju in the movie, causing Chen Jiaju to lose his reputation and almost go to jail.

The scene before me is so similar.

Lu Ming had reason to believe that this was a conspiracy orchestrated by Zhu Tao, and that Chen Jiaju was being framed.

Thinking of this, he checked the red dot in his mind related to Chen Jiaju, and his pupils shrank as the red dot representing Chen Jiaju disappeared.

He had just re-tagged Chen Jiaju before leaving get off work yesterday, and it hasn't even been a day yet, so it's impossible for it to disappear on its own.

That leaves only two possibilities.

The first possibility is that Chan Ka-kui is dead, so the mark simply disappeared.

The second possibility is that Chen Jiaju's current location is beyond his perception range.

Tai Po...

He realized that the accident occurred in the remote Tai Po district, which was far from Central and therefore beyond his comprehension.

When the director and Uncle Biao saw Lu Ming lost in thought, they mistakenly thought that Lu Ming was saddened by Wen Jianren's sacrifice. The two exchanged a glance, realizing that the two were indeed very close.

The director cleared his throat. "Ah Ming, none of us wanted this to happen, but it has already happened, and all we can do is try to fix it. Don't worry, I've already issued arrest warrants to all departments. I'll notify you immediately if there's any news."

"Yes, yes, yes, our police station's duty is to not let any criminal go unpunished. Although Ka-Kui is a veteran of our Major Crimes Unit, the law applies to everyone, and we will arrest him without hesitation."

Uncle Biao looked righteous and awe-inspiring.

Looking at the two people in front of him, who were singing in unison, Lu Ming sensed a lot of scheming in them. After a moment's thought, he wondered if these two would mistakenly think that he was grateful to Wen Jianren for giving him important responsibilities.

Please, all he ever wanted was Wen Jianren's life!
