"What happened?" Lin Hong stood beside Chen Xing. Her eyes fell on the office building opposite. A group of people had already gathered under the office building. It could be inferred that it was the scene of the incident.
"I don't know." Chen Xing shook his head. Although he didn't know what happened, a gunshot was not a trivial matter. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so surprised. While answering Lin Hong, Chen Xing had already picked up his mobile phone and called He Yijun. "Yijun, there was a gunshot on Nanzheng Road. The police from the Public Security Bureau should have been dispatched. Come and have a look and understand the situation."
"Mayor Chen, I'm on my way. I happen to be on duty at night. I just received a report that there was a gunshot on Nanzheng Road. I don't dare to delay and am on my way." He Yijun replied. He was surprised that Chen Xing would call him first. "Mayor Chen, where are you?"
"Well, I happen to be here now." Chen Xing nodded. "Come and understand the situation first and report to me later."
"Okay, Mayor Chen, don't worry. I'll report to you as soon as I have any news." He Yijun replied hurriedly.
Lin Hong listened quietly to Chen Xing's phone call. When Chen Xing finished the phone call, Lin Hong wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. Seeing Chen Xing looking at him, Lin Hong said in surprise, "Mayor Chen, we were just discussing whether there was anyone following you. Now there is a gunshot under our eyes. Do you think these two things are related?"
"Huh?" Chen Xing looked at Lin Hong in surprise and then shook his head. "Miss Lin, I think you are too nervous. I think this is more of a coincidence. The gunshot happened on the opposite side. Besides, if someone really follows you, it's a different matter, unless there are two groups of people following you and the two groups have a conflict." Chen Xing's last words were undoubtedly a joke.
"I'm just saying it casually. It's ridiculous for me to suddenly have this idea." Lin Hong smiled bitterly. Although she said it, she couldn't give a reason to doubt it. After all, these two things were unrelated. It was just an idea that came to her mind.
This kind of gunshot case was rare in Nanzhou City. Chen Xing said without reason.
It was rare, at least in this downtown area. Lin Hong nodded. In fact, there were many crimes that happened in dark corners, no matter how bloody they were. Lin Hong had seen a lot of dark corners. She also knew how chaotic some corners of this society were. Only by becoming rich and powerful could she not be bullied. This was also why she was so unscrupulous in her pursuit of money and power.
The two of them were silent for a while, their gazes fixed on the opposite side. The sound of the alarm was getting clearer. The speed of the police was quite fast. The first to arrive should be from the nearby street police station. Lin Hong looked at the opposite side, but her thoughts weren't always on this. After standing there for a long time, Lin Hong suddenly said, "Li Haocheng is probably running around in circles abroad right now. He wants to come back early, but he's worried that it will arouse suspicion. However, he doesn't come back. Zhang Qingyang's case is worrying him a lot. When the people in the ministry were investigating Zheng Guangfu, he wasn't this anxious. Now that something happened to Zhang Qingyang, he couldn't sit still. There must be a deep connection between him and Zhang Qingyang, some of which even I don't know.
It's normal for them to have a close relationship. It would be abnormal if they didn't. " Chen Xing smiled. At first, Li Haocheng went abroad for an investigation in high spirits. But after a few days, Li Haocheng's intestines turned green with regret.
I don't know if Li Haocheng will suspect me. When Zhang Qingyang was in trouble, he also called me, but his tone was normal. He just asked me what happened these days. He was worried about Zhang Qingyang's case. Lin Hong said, "Although Li Haocheng is abroad, he must have a lot of information channels. It's easy for him to find out what happened these days. I don't know why he asked me.
You have an unusual relationship with him, so it's normal for him to think of you. " Chen Xing comforted Lin Hong. He could feel that Lin Hong wasn't in a good state of mind. He was paranoid, and his nerves were tense.
While the two of them were talking, the police had surrounded the crime scene in the office building across the street. The ambulance arrived at the same time as the police. The cordon was pulled up, and the man in the car was still there. After the shooting, the middle-aged man wanted to leave the scene. However, he didn't leave. He didn't even get out of the car. It seemed he was frightened by the sudden scene. The bullet grazed his cheek when he turned his head. It looked dangerous, but he didn't suffer any serious injuries. After the ambulance arrived, the doctor checked him and confirmed that he only had a superficial wound. The doctor who examined him exclaimed that he was lucky, but he still suggested that he go to the hospital for a head CT scan.
I'm from the Provincial Department. When the police came over to interrogate the middle-aged man's identity, the middle-aged man also showed his ID. His identity directly stunned the interrogating police. After that, the interrogating police didn't take down the transcript. They were all brothers in the same system, so there might be some hidden secrets. The policeman simply closed the transcript book and reported the situation to He Yijun.
When He Yijun came over, he kept looking at the middle-aged man. He said with concern, "Brother, are you okay?
I'm fine. I'm lucky. The bullet grazed my skin. " The middle-aged man squeezed a smile. No matter how calm he was, he couldn't act like he was fine after such an incident.
It's good that you're okay. He Yijun nodded and said, "We're from the same system, so I won't ask any useless questions. You're the person involved, so I want to hear your opinion first."
I was also puzzled. I was sitting in the car when the man came over and knocked on the window. I saw that he was wearing a pair of sunglasses to cover half of his face. Out of professional vigilance, I opened the window a little. I didn't expect that the man would pull out his gun and shoot me. If I hadn't instinctively tilted my face, I'm not sure if the bullet would have pierced through my face or not. "
The middle-aged man was still scared when he talked about this incident. However, his many years as a police officer had given him better mental fortitude and calmness in the face of danger. At this moment, the middle-aged man calmly recalled the scene at that time. From my observation, the man's movements from picking up the gun to firing the gun were smooth and smooth. He was definitely an expert with guns.
Then, the middle-aged man angrily pounded his fist. "Unfortunately, I didn't bring my gun tonight. When I saw him leave, I didn't dare to chase after him. I was worried about his gun.
It's right that you didn't chase after him. Although it's important to catch him, your safety is the first priority. You should ensure your own safety first. " He Yijun said, "Right, why did you come here tonight?"
"Oh, I wanted to buy some tea leaves. A friend of mine recommended this tea shop. I've run out of tea leaves at home, so I decided to come here tonight to buy some. I borrowed my friend's car to come here." The middle-aged man pointed at the tea shop on the first floor of the office building.
This incident is really strange. " He Yijun looked at the middle-aged man. He didn't see anything strange on the man's face when he said that. He just asked, "Have you offended anyone recently or in the past?
I don't remember anyone. " The middle-aged man thought for a moment and shook his head. He had thought about it carefully just now. As a policeman, it was inevitable for him to encounter some vicious criminals when he was handling a case. Some of them had accomplices, and after they were caught, they often threatened that their accomplices would take revenge. However, these kinds of words were not too important to police officers. They had heard a lot of threats, but usually, no one really dared to come to them for revenge.
Of course, this kind of thing had happened before, but the middle-aged man hadn't encountered it himself. Thinking back to the cases he had handled recently, he had arrested a lot of criminals, but he had never encountered anyone who dared to say such ruthless words. According to his personal judgment, it shouldn't be related to the cases he had handled in the past, so the middle-aged man was also confused.
"It seems that I can only investigate slowly." He Yijun frowned. The middle-aged man didn't provide too much useful information. At present, he could only preliminarily rule out that it was revenge. However, the middle-aged man was also a police officer. Who would dare to shoot him, and choose to do so in such a downtown area?
"This is the only way. Later, our Provincial Department may also intervene in the investigation. At that time, I hope that your Municipal Bureau will cooperate." The middle-aged man said.
"That's for sure. Our Municipal Bureau will definitely actively cooperate with you." He Yijun nodded his head.
Next to him, the police officers from the street police station who arrived first were carrying out a detailed inspection of the scene with the criminal investigation experts from the Municipal Bureau. The car that the middle-aged man was in became the focus of the inspection. An expert was comparing the bullet marks on both sides of the glass with the bullet holes on the glass window.
He Yijun and the middle-aged man stood aside and didn't make a sound to disturb them. Professional identification required professionals. Criminal investigation experts could find some suspicious points from some subtle details, which was not something that ordinary people could do.
The middle-aged man stayed at the scene for a while and then left. His car was temporarily left behind. He Yijun also asked about the middle-aged man's identity. He was an ordinary police officer from the Provincial Department's Criminal Police Corps. His name was Zhang Yu. He didn't hold any position. He Yijun secretly thought that it was no wonder he didn't know him. He knew many of the leaders of the Provincial Department's Criminal Police Corps, but he didn't know him. He didn't hold any position.
Zhang Yu left. He Yijun still stayed at the crime scene. A criminal investigation expert from the Municipal Bureau walked towards He Yijun. He had been studying the possible position of the shooter with another person and compared it with the bullet hole on the other side of the car window, which was not really broken. They were trying to reconstruct the situation at the time of the crime.
The criminal investigation expert came up with two conclusions, one of which was particularly shocking. He walked to He Yijun's side and told him his speculation. Yijun, based on the situation of the wounded person, I have come up with two conclusions. The criminal investigation expert was a veteran expert from the Municipal Bureau. At the same time, he was also a part-time professor of Criminal Identification Science and Technology at the Municipal Police Academy. He was also qualified to call He Yijun by his name. Speaking of which, He Yijun had attended his classes when he was studying at the Municipal Police Academy. Tonight's shooting case had shocked even a veteran like him.
He rushed to the scene as soon as he received the call.
As the criminal investigation expert spoke, he motioned for He Yijun to follow him to the car where Zhang Yu was sitting. He stood at a position next to the car door, not even the length of an adult's arm away from the car door. He then said to He Yijun,
"At that time, the shooter should be standing at this position, at most half a meter away from the driver's seat. Under such circumstances, he fired two shots. The first shot, the bullet just grazed the skin of the wounded person's cheek. The second shot didn't hit the wounded person, but directly hit the opposite car door. Compared to the first shot, the second shot was much worse. We can explain that the shooter didn't hit the target with the first shot, so he panicked and fired the second shot. However, because of his nervousness, the second shot was much worse than the first.
"Elder Sun, what's the second situation? He Yijun respectfully called him Elder Sun. Just now, the criminal investigation expert said there were two scenarios. He Yijun was not in a hurry to express his opinion on the first scenario.
The second scenario is a bold inference of mine. You can listen to it for now. As the criminal investigation expert spoke, he stared at the car attentively, as if he was replaying the scene in his mind. I suspect that the shooter didn't want to kill the people in the car at all, but I don't know why he shot at the people in the car. First of all, he was standing outside the car, less than a meter away from the driver's seat. The people in the car happened to be from the public security system. When they saw the shooter's strange appearance, they became vigilant and opened the car window only a little bit.
At this point, the criminal investigation expert paused and gestured with two fingers at the car window that was opened. It was about a little bit thicker than two fingers of an adult. The gap wasn't big at all. Because of this, the criminal investigation expert made a bold inference. He continued, "Look, the gap in the car window isn't big. If the shooter isn't someone who holds a gun all year round and shoots in that kind of situation, it's very likely that he would miss and hit the car window directly. However, the two shots that the shooter fired not only accurately went through the gap in the car window, the first shot even grazed the cheeks of the people in the car when the angle was slanted. Although the second shot deviated a lot, it still went through the gap very accurately.
Therefore, I'm guessing that the shooter is an expert shooter. Not only is he very steady with the gun, but his mental fortitude is also very good. Most importantly, his shooting skills are very accurate. Whether or not he could hurt the people in the car seemed to be under his control. The first shot seemed to almost kill the people in the car, but it was very likely that it was just a 'joke.' As for the second shot, it was just a random shot.
The criminal investigation expert explained as he demonstrated. What he wanted to tell He Yijun was undoubtedly the problem of the position and angle. At this moment, He Yijun was standing on the side, and he also raised his hand to demonstrate the position of the shooter. Because the shooter was standing outside, and the people in the car were sitting, the shooter was shooting from a higher position. The gap in the car window wasn't big, so the shooter's two shots accurately went through the gap in the glass. This conclusion completely contradicted Elder Sun's first conclusion. Elder Sun's first conclusion was that the shooter panicked and wasn't steady with the gun, so the two shots didn't hit the people in the car at such a close distance. However, this conclusion wasn't easy to explain. At this moment, He Yijun also looked solemn and couldn't make a judgment.
Elder Sun, do you think it's possible that the shooter used the gun to shoot through the gap in the car window? But because the shooter panicked and had poor mental fortitude, the two shots didn't hit the people in the car at such a close distance. He Yijun said.
No, that's impossible. The criminal investigation expert shook his head. He was still holding a magnifying glass and a special strong flashlight, which he used to illuminate the edge of the glass. He said, "I've looked carefully just now, and we can rule out the possibility that the shooter didn't use the gun to point at the gap in the glass, because there isn't any trace on the glass here. I think the shooter fired from a distance.
Elder Sun, after listening to what you said, I'm confused. The first possibility sounds reasonable, but from what you said, you seem to be more inclined to the second inference? He Yijun said with a wry smile.
The first possibility sounds more reliable, and the second is just a bold inference based on my many years of experience. I don't dare to jump to a conclusion, so I'm just letting you listen to it for the time being. As for how to solve the specific case, it's up to you to make a judgment. The criminal investigation expert said.
He Yijun nodded thoughtfully. He stared at the car and fell into deep thought.
After leaving the scene, Zhang Yu took a taxi and left. He walked to a deserted alley and looked around to make sure no one was around. Then he took out his mobile phone and dialed a nameless number. The mark on his mobile phone was only 'No.1'. When the call was connected, Zhang Yu respectfully called 'Boss'.
What's the situation? On the other end of the phone, a dignified voice came through, with a natural bureaucratic tone.
Boss, I was shot just now, but luckily escaped. Zhang Yu reported his situation in time.
Shot? Why, the shooting at Nanzheng Road has something to do with you? The voice of the person on the other end of the phone changed a little. It could be heard that the person was also a little shocked.
Well, I was following Lin Hong. When I was watching downstairs, a stranger came to my car. If I hadn't been vigilant, I would have become a corpse now. Zhang Yu was very calm at this moment, but he was really frightened just now.
Are you hurt? The person on the other end of the phone said a word of concern, but there was not much emotion in his voice.
Fortunately, it's not a big deal. Zhang Yu shook his head. Boss, Lin Hong went to his club tonight, but I later saw Mayor Chen's car coming. I guess Lin Hong might be meeting Mayor Chen at his club.
Chen Xing? The voice on the other end of the phone fluctuated again. Obviously, this news surprised him.
Well, because of the sudden shooting, I couldn't keep watch until the end. Now the Nanzhou Municipal Bureau is at the scene, so I left first. As Zhang Yu spoke, his eyes glowed in the dark night, looking around vigilantly. Boss, should we continue to monitor Lin Hong?
Continue, of course, continue. The person on the other end of the phone said without any doubt. He paused for a moment and then said, "But you also have to pay attention to your own safety. These two days, you followed Lin Hong, did she notice you?
No, she couldn't have noticed. But the bodyguard she hired is quite skilled. I was almost discovered several times, but I'm sure he didn't dare to confirm whether someone was following me or not. " Zhang Yu said confidently.
If you say so, then the other party is likely to be suspicious. Do you think the person who shot you is Lin Hong's man? The person on the other end of the phone suddenly asked.
This … this shouldn't be possible. Zhang Yu was shocked. On his way out, he had been thinking about who wanted to kill him. He went through the criminals he recently encountered and the cases he was still investigating, but he couldn't think of anyone who would want to harm him. At this moment, the 'boss' on the other end of the phone suddenly pointed at Lin Hong, even he was shocked.
Anything is possible, but no matter what, this incident also sounded the alarm. When you monitor Lin Hong, you have to be more careful and pay attention to your own safety. Also, find a chance to search Lin Hong's house. The person on the other end of the phone said, "As for tonight's shooting, I will ask someone to urge the Nanzhou Municipal Bureau to solve the case as soon as possible. The Provincial Department will also send people to assist in the investigation.
