Chapter 288 Major Case: 4 Dead, 3 Injured
Chapter 288 Major Case: 4 Dead, 3 Injured
Qiu Jinkun clutched his neck, the gun in his hand was kicked away by Zuo Dao, his eyes filled with anger and disbelief.
Why did you betray me?
Zuo Dao smiled sinisterly. He was originally Chen Wenxiong's man, and his purpose in being by Qiu Jinkun's side was to monitor him.
"Brother, I really like a line from Hong Kong movies: 'What goes around comes around.'"
With a thud, Qiu Jinkun fell to the ground, his eyes wide open, his body stained with blood.
He died with a heart full of resentment, his eyes wide open in disbelief. Why could Chen Wenxiong, who committed murder and arson, still amass a fortune, while he himself lay dead in the street?
In the underworld, it's all about the big fish eating the small fish; there's no such thing as brotherhood. If there's any danger from the police, killing to silence witnesses is the best way to deal with the problem.
Before long, Qiu Jinkun's body was dragged up the mountain and buried in a large pit. As long as Chen Wenxiong didn't fall, he could only remain a lonely ghost forever.
For a week, Qi Tongwei led a team to investigate with customs officials and arrested some people. After interrogation, they assumed it was smuggling television sets and never considered the possibility of drugs. People on the mainland are not as quick-witted as people in Hong Kong.
Provincial Department.
After a busy week, I can finally steal a moment of leisure. The customs work is almost finished, but unfortunately, we haven't found a single clue about the Hong Kong drug trafficking gangs, except for one escaped man named Huang Sen.
These drug traffickers in Hong Kong use mainland migrant workers to run legitimate businesses and use Hong Kongers who have been illegally immigrated to Hong Kong to traffic drugs—it's a win-win situation.
The joint defense teams in eastern Guangdong would find fault with migrant workers from all over the country even when there was none, but they basically ignored people from Hong Kong, which is why these drug traffickers who smuggled themselves over from Hong Kong were able to escape inspection.
Lan Ying rushed in, "Qi Zhi, something terrible has happened!"
Qi Tongwei felt a headache coming on when he heard this. Couldn't someone get a break? "What's so important?"
Lan Ying clenched her fists, her face filled with anger. "Someone attacked Yonghua Police Station, resulting in four deaths and three injuries. The station chief, Chen Daji, suffered more than a dozen stab wounds. The preliminary assessment is that it was an act of revenge against society."
Qi Tongwei was shocked; this was indeed a major incident, with a police station almost being wiped out.
"It was done by several people."
"According to eyewitness accounts, there was only one person, and he was carrying a knife when he fled."
Qi Tongwei didn't think that a man with a knife stormed into the police station was an act of revenge against society. It was more likely that he was dissatisfied with the police's handling of the problem and wanted to retaliate. After all, there were also cases in later generations where people killed judges because they were dissatisfied with the verdict.
Suddenly the phone rang. It was Li Jitao calling. "Come to my office right away."
"Yes, sir."
"Lan Ying, continue to follow up on the situation."
Qi Tongwei rushed out of the office and attacked the police station, causing serious casualties, which is unacceptable to the police department.
Li Jitao's face was grave and he was very angry. "You know about what happened at Yonghua Police Station, right?"
"Boss, I just found out too."
Li Jitao stood up, a surge of pent-up anger welling up inside him. "Director Ye just gave instructions: you temporarily set aside all your work and notify all police stations and local police stations to find the murderer within three days. Any questions?"
Qi Tongwei roared, "No problem!"
"Go ahead, don't waste time."
"Yes, sir."
After Qi Tongwei left, he immediately called a meeting with his colleagues, mainly to mobilize them. Of course, everyone felt the pain of the police being killed, so there was no need for mobilization.
"Chief Chen, take some men to Yonghua Police Station. I'll go to the hospital with Lan Ying and Wu Dali."
"Yes, Qizhi."
"action"
At this moment, all the police in the city were busy.
Qi Tongwei rushed to the hospital and visited the three injured people. One of them was still unconscious after surgery. He had injured his heart and almost died from a knife wound.
The other two injured people have woken up. One of them had severed tendons in his hand, which will have some impact even after recovery. The other person had five fingers severed, which was a shocking sight.
Qi Tongwei pulled up a stool and sat down beside the hospital bed. "Comrade, I'm Qi Tongwei from the provincial department. Please tell me the details of what happened. Do you know the murderer?"
The two injured men looked somewhat flustered, as if they had something difficult to say.
"know"
Qi Tongwei pressed further, "What was the killer's name?"
Zhang Jian
Lan Ying was taking notes. Qi Tongwei didn't want to think the worst of his colleague, but the situation seemed more complicated than it appeared.
"Director Chen was stabbed more than a dozen times and died a gruesome death. This is clearly an act of revenge. Did he have a conflict with Zhang Jian?"
The two injured men remained silent.
Qi Tongwei understood from their evasive eyes that there was indeed some conflict.
"Comrade, we are all police officers. Everyone is outraged by what happened. I hope you will not hide anything."
"Qi Tongwei, are you even speaking human language?"
Chen Zhihu led his men into the ward. He had already been to Yonghua Police Station. The deceased, Chen Daji, was from Chenjiazhai. He had become the head of the police station by pulling strings.
Qi Tongwei suddenly stood up, furious. "Chen Zhihu, are you out of your mind? I don't want to argue with you, get lost!"
Chen Zhihu certainly couldn't let Qi Tongwei continue asking questions, because he already knew the reason why Zhang Jian attacked the police.
"Qi Tongwei, if you were still a cop, you'd be out here arresting someone, not interrogating your own people."
Qi Tongwei laughed angrily, "Chen Zhihu, shouldn't a professional police officer get to the bottom of things? My colleague is dead, and I'm more heartbroken than you are."
"Qi Tongwei, what do you want to know? Are you saying our colleague violated the law? You clearly have ulterior motives. Search your conscience, isn't that what you're thinking?"
After Chen Zhihu's instigation, the two injured men's eyes clearly turned hostile.
“Officer Qi, I think Captain Chen is right. You should be arresting the murderer now, not interrogating the victim here.”
"Officer Qi, Zhang Jian is a heinous murderer. What's more important than catching him right now?"
Chen Zhihu clapped his hands and sneered, "Qi Tongwei, did you hear that? This is the sentiment of all the police officers. If you want to go against the police in the whole city, you're asking for death."
Lan Ying realized that there must be something fishy going on. From the perspective of all the police officers, the tragedy of four dead and three injured was not important. What mattered was to catch the murderer as soon as possible and sentence him to death.
Worried that Qi Tongwei might act impulsively, she whispered a reminder: "Chief Qi, now is not the time to act rashly."
Qi Tongwei clenched his fist, calmed himself down, and said, "Chen Zhihu, you don't represent all the police officers. I will arrest the murderer, and I will also find out the truth of the matter."
Chen Zhihu laughed heartily, "Qi Tongwei, you really think you're Bao Zheng (a legendary upright official in Chinese history)? If it weren't for some stroke of luck, you would have slunk away long ago. Get lost, your two colleagues need rest and some peace and quiet."
Qi Tongwei let out a sigh of relief. There was no point in saying anything now; once the murderer was caught, the motive for the killing would naturally be clarified.
Let's go.
"Get out of here."
Chen Zhihu raised his middle finger and laughed heartily, finally making Qi Tongwei suffer a setback, which was very satisfying.
