After his impulsiveness, Yu Qian realized that his current situation was extremely bad.
He was a martial artist. Not only had he killed a normal person on the street, but the victim was also a representative of the district. The nature of this case had already risen to the level of provoking the government. The consequences were extremely serious and the Seventeenth Department's interference was inevitable.
Yu Qian's understanding of the Seventeenth Department far exceeded that of an outsider like Qi Ruoxian. On the surface, the Seventeenth Department was just a department attached to the National Security Bureau but in reality, it exercised its own authority. Its members were spread across every city in the country to prevent martial artists from breaking the law.
It was responsible for mediating conflicts between martial artists and investigating cases involving martial artists. It also dealt with some supernatural incidents. It had a very high reputation and deterrence in the jianghu. After all, it represented one of the governing bodies of the country, so some martial artists jokingly called the Seventeenth Department Six Fan School.
Yu Qian's heart was full of regret and hatred. He hated Ding Ning for injuring him, he hated his senior Liu Zhongyu for fleeing in the face of danger, and he hated Gu Fangran for not understanding the situation. Otherwise, he would not have fallen to this state.
Presumably, the Seventeenth Department had already taken over this case? He could not stay here for long.
The slightly tipsy Yu Qian still maintained a clear mind and carefully calculated how he could safely escape from Ninghai. As long as he could leave Ninghai, he should be safe for a short period of time.
After all, this involved a martial artist. The Seventeenth Department could not be like the police who could casually issue a national arrest warrant. They could only have martial artists secretly search for his tracks.
Yu Qian had already made preparations. As soon as he left Ninghai, he would immediately sneak abroad and hide for three to five years. In any case, he had earned a lot of money with Gu Fangran, enough for him to squander abroad for a few years.
Unfortunately, this beautiful plan was shattered into ashes as the anti-theft door was silently opened and Ding Ning walked in with Xiao Nuo with a smile.
"Why you? Are you from the Seventeenth Department? "
Yu Qian sat up dejectedly and very knowingly gave up resisting. He stared at Ding Ning and asked in confusion.
Ding Ning raised his right hand and made a shooting gesture. He said coquettishly, "Sorry, I am a police officer."
"You are a police officer?"
This answer stunned Yu Qian. His skills were enough to join the Seventeenth Department, but he was a police officer? This guy's brain must have been struck by lightning.
"Of course, I'm still a criminal police officer!"
Ding Ning's expression of "I'm a policeman, I'm proud, come and worship me" almost made Yu Qian have a nervous breakdown.
Xiao Nuo was amused by him and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She rolled her eyes at him and said, "You are a policeman. You are awesome, okay? Hurry up and take him back."
"There's no hurry, Yu Qian. Let me ask you, if I have a way to reduce your crime, will you cooperate with me?"
Ding Ning calmly waved his hand, indicating that Xiao Nuo was not in a hurry.
"Cooperate? How? "
Yu Qian looked at Ding Ning with a strange expression. "Why do I feel that this guy is a little stupid? A martial artist with such great skills can be so proud of being an ordinary criminal police officer. It really makes me speechless."
"You've been with Gu Fangran for so long, you should know some of his secrets. As long as you can cooperate with me to find evidence of Gu Fangran's crimes, that will be a great contribution and I can consider your punishment reduced."
Ding Ning said righteously. He had no choice but to talk about cooperation with Yu Qian.
According to the news from Xiaojin, although Old Spear was taken down by Lu Zhan and Cheng Hu, they didn't find evidence of Gu Fangran and his son's crimes.
Compared to catching Yu Qian and solving the murder case, Ding Ning was more concerned about whether he could find evidence of Gu Fangran and his son's crimes and make Jiang Zhongze suffer.
In particular, Gu Tianqi still had evidence against Liu Shasha and Li Xiaoman. Ding Ning must find this "evidence" to avoid future trouble.
Yu Qian's expression changed. A martial artist killing an ordinary person was severely punished. Even if Gu Fangran attacked him first and his sentence would be light, he would still have to spend more than ten years in prison.
If he could cooperate with Ding Ning to find evidence of Gu Fangran and his son's crimes and prove that Gu Fangran deserved to die, maybe he could be released in a few years.
He immediately said in a low voice, "I can cooperate with you, but you must promise to give me a lighter sentence."
"No problem. As long as you can help us find evidence of his crimes, I will definitely plead for leniency for you. The more evidence, the more complete it is. The heavier their crimes are, the lighter your crimes will be. Maybe you will be acquitted and given a Good Citizen Award for helping the people get rid of evil."
Ding Ning didn't care about Xiao Nuo's anxious look and promised solemnly.
Xiao Nuo was so angry that she secretly stamped her feet. No matter how much Gu Fangran deserved to die, it was a fact that Yu Qian killed someone on the street. The impact was extremely bad. Even if his sentence was reduced, it wouldn't be much. Ding Ning was simply talking nonsense and trying to fool Yu Qian.
"Really?" Yu Qian's eyes brightened and he said excitedly.
Ding Ning said seriously, "Of course it's true. But this depends on how much evidence of the Gu father and his son's crimes can be found."
"Okay, I know that Gu Fangran has a secret safe in a villa. Even his own son doesn't know about it. If he really has evidence of his crimes, it must be in that safe."
Seeing the doubt on Ding Ning and Xiao Nuo's faces, he knew that they were wondering why Gu Tianqi didn't know about it but he did.
Yu Qian's face turned red and he said embarrassedly, "To tell you the truth, Gu Fangran's mistress, Liu Yating, told me about it a few days ago."
Xiao Nuo was dumbfounded. She really wanted to ask why Gu Fangran's mistress would tell him such secret information.
Ding Ning, however, had a plan in mind. He smiled ambiguously and said, "Brother Yu is indeed amazing. Then do you know where that villa is?"
Xiao Nuo finally understood and looked at Yu Qian with disdain. This guy was a bodyguard and even hooked up with his employer's mistress. He really wasn't a good person.
Yu Qian's expression was a little unnatural as he scratched his head. "I know. Liu Yating used to be Gu Fangran's favorite. She only found out about this safe when he let it slip one night when he was drunk. Later, Liu Yating fell out of favor and was unwilling to accept it. Seeing that my kung fu was good, she wanted to instigate me to steal Gu Fangran's safe and take her far away. That's why I specially went to check it out."
"That's good. Let's go take a look together now."
Ding Ning's spirits rose. He went forward to grab Yu Qian's hand and shook and pressed hard with both hands.
Yu Qian was shocked and was about to resist when he found that his left arm, which was in so much pain that he couldn't lift it, was no longer hurting. He looked at Ding Ning in surprise.
"All right, you'll be fine after resting for a month. Untie the family of three. Although the male master's bonesetting skills aren't great, he is innocent after all."
Ding Ning said with a smile, but it made Yu Qian's hair stand on end. He didn't know how Ding Ning had found this place and how he knew everything he had done.
Seeing Yu Qian standing there in a daze, Ding Ning glanced at him indifferently. "You should be glad that you didn't do anything to harm this family of three. Otherwise, you would already be a dead man."
Yu Qian's entire body trembled and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. The mistress of this family was very beautiful. If it wasn't for the fact that he was annoyed and his left shoulder hurt so badly that he really didn't want to touch women, the mistress of this family would probably have become his plaything long ago.
He didn't expect that the thoughts he thought were extremely secretive could not be hidden from Ding Ning's eyes. This made him fear Ding Ning and respect him even more.
He hurriedly untied the family of three, not forgetting to explain, "I didn't want to hurt them. I just wanted to borrow their place to hide. I will compensate them."
"That's good. Gu Fangran wanted to kill you first, so I can understand that you killed him on impulse. That's why I'm giving you a chance to redeem yourself. But if you dare to harm innocent people, I will not be merciful."
Ding Ning's tone was indifferent but it contained a strong warning. Yu Qian kept quiet out of fear and secretly rejoiced that he hadn't been blinded by lust. Otherwise, he would probably be a corpse now.
"Yes, I will never kill innocent people in the future."
Yu Qian promised as he took out all the cash he had, about ten thousand yuan, and placed it on the bedside table of the family of three.
Ding Ning nodded in satisfaction. Holding the hand of Xiao Nuo, whose eyes were shining, he walked out first. "There's no time to lose. Let's go."
Yu Qian's eyes flashed. Now that the wound on his left shoulder no longer hurt, should he escape when Ding Ning was not paying attention?
But when he thought of how he could be found by Ding Ning even though he was hiding here, he really had no confidence that he could escape from Ding Ning's palm. The strange thought immediately disappeared.
He obediently closed the door and followed behind Ding Ning and Xiao Nuo. His eyes darted around and no one knew what he was thinking.
"It's this villa. It's heavily guarded inside. Gu Fangran's most loyal subordinates are all stationed here. It's said that they are all equipped with guns and are extremely vigilant. The last time I came, I was discovered as soon as I entered. Luckily, I ran fast. Otherwise, I would have been shot into a sieve."
By the river in the northern suburbs of Ninghai, Yu Qian pointed at a villa with only a few lights on and said softly with lingering fear.
Ding Ning raised his eyebrows. "Do you know where the safety deposit box is exactly?"
"I don't know. Liu Yating only heard Gu Fangran mention it once when he was drunk. He said that his most valuable and precious things are all hidden in Bihai Lantian No. 11 safety deposit box."
Yu Qian looked at Ding Ning with a lack of confidence and said awkwardly.
Hearing that the security guards here had guns, Xiao Nuo immediately said nervously, "Let's apply for a search warrant before coming back."
"No, Gu Fangran and his son are already dead. His loyal subordinates have no one to be loyal to. It's inevitable that they will have disloyal thoughts. If they take the things in the safety deposit box and escape, all our efforts will be in vain. I'll go in to take a look. You guys wait for me here."
Ding Ning said with a determined attitude.
"But …"
Xiao Nuo anxiously wanted to say something but was interrupted by Ding Ning. He said confidently, "Don't worry, they can't do anything to me."
Then he glanced at Yu Qian and said indifferently, "Brother Yu, I'll say the ugly things first. You better cooperate obediently and don't have any other thoughts. Otherwise, I promise you will regret it."
"I don't dare, I don't dare. I definitely won't have any other thoughts."
Yu Qian frantically waved his hands.
Ding Ning's lips curled into a meaningful smile. "That's for the best. Otherwise, it won't look good for everyone."
"I'll go with you?"
Xiao Nuo pressed her pink lips together and said awkwardly.
"No need. I'll be a smaller target if I go alone. Don't worry."
Just as Ding Ning finished speaking, Xiao Nuo suddenly felt that there was something in her hand. Then Ding Ning's voice sounded in her mind again.
"Be careful of Yu Qian. I don't trust him. I've already done something to him. If he does anything strange, crush the bottle in your hand and he will act up."
Xiao Nuo was startled and warned, "Then you must be careful."
"Okay, don't worry. I'm going!"
Just as Ding Ning finished speaking, his figure disappeared like a ghost.
