When Chen Xing arrived at the First City Hospital, Lin Hong was still in the emergency room. Outside the emergency room, besides Yan Jun, there were two policemen in police uniforms. They were from the Municipal Bureau. Except for the three of them, there was no one else. The two policemen hurriedly greeted Mayor Chen respectfully. Chen Xing nodded slightly. He was not surprised to see Yan Jun guarding here, but he faintly felt that something was wrong. After a while, Chen Xing realized that there was not even a family member of Lin Hong outside the emergency room.
Where were Lin Hong's family members? Chen Xing turned to ask Yan Jun in surprise.
I don't know. This is the bag she carries with her. Just now, I took a look. There is no phone number of her parents or any siblings in it. I wanted to call Miss Lin's family, but I couldn't. It was rare for Yan Jun to say such a long word. He looked a little strange. The signature for the operation just now was signed by him in the name of Lin Hong's family member.
Oh. Chen Xing nodded. He had been in contact with Lin Hong many times, but he only had a little understanding of Lin Hong. He really didn't know much about Lin Hong's family.
Not delving further into this matter, Chen Xing began to care about Lin Hong's situation. Did the doctor say anything?
No. Since she was pushed into the emergency room, no doctor or nurse came out. Even if he wanted to ask, he couldn't. However, when he was in the ambulance just now, the doctor in the ambulance said that the situation was not very bad, and there was a high chance that she could be saved. In fact, there was one thing he didn't say. When he was in the ambulance, the doctor in the ambulance praised him, saying that it was lucky that someone knew how to bandage the wound in time, which had the effect of preventing excessive blood loss. If she could be saved in the end, it might have played a key role because of this. And it was all Yan Jun's credit. It was just that Yan Jun and Chen Xing wouldn't say this.
I don't think she is an unlucky person. I hope she can survive this. Chen Xing sighed. This was his sincere hope. Although Lin Hong had nothing to do with him, and after several contacts, Chen Xing also knew that Lin Hong was a ruthless woman. Such a person was definitely not a good person. But after all, Lin Hong had helped him. Even if the relationship between them was more because of the exchange of interests, Chen Xing really didn't want Lin Hong to die like this.
This kind of injury sometimes depended on the patient's physical fitness and personal willpower. Some people could break through the gate of Hell, but some could not. Yan Jun said expressionlessly.
Chen Xing was used to the cool-looking bodyguard hired by Lin Hong. He turned his head and looked at the door of the emergency room. Chen Xing sighed. The murderer had left freely, but Lin Hong was still struggling with death. Just now, the Public Security Bureau had reported the situation. They didn't find the gunman in the building. Even after consulting the building's surveillance records, there was still no trace of the gunman. Obviously, the mysterious gunman had made thorough preparations. As for whether there was anyone to help him, it was still unknown. Another situation at that time was that as soon as the gunshot was fired, the policemen from the Provincial Department rushed to the building. When Chen Xing learned that the man was called Zhang Yushi, his heart also thumped. The Provincial Department seemed to keep a close eye on Lin Hong.
Mayor Chen. A familiar voice came from behind. Chen Xing didn't need to turn his head to know that it was He Yijun coming.
Why are you here? Chen Xing looked at He Yijun and said.
Mayor, you should know that Zhang Yu was at the scene at that time. He Yijun glanced at Yan Jun and whispered to Chen Xing.
Yes, I know. Did you find anything?
Nothing for the time being. I just feel strange. Zhang Yu just took the man away from our Municipal Bureau. In a blink of an eye, he followed Lin Hong. It's really strange. He Yijun said, "Oh, by the way, I just learned that the owner of the car is Zhang Yu's friend. After the first shooting incident last night, Zhang Yu left his car at the scene, so he borrowed another car from his friend to follow Lin Hong. He was shot for the second time outside the villa. Zhang Yu was afraid that the police would rush to see him, so he quickly left the scene.
From what you said, there is not much difference from the previous speculation. You still think that Zhang Yu is trying to hide something. " Chen Xing frowned and said.
Yes, Zhang Yu must be hiding something. And he doesn't want our Municipal Bureau to investigate his friend. That's why he appeared in the Municipal Bureau in time when I brought his friend back to ask about the bullet hole in the car. He also brought the documents from the Provincial Department. This is surprising enough. " He Yijun said.
Just investigate this secretly. Don't make it public, lest it causes any misunderstanding. Chen Xing said.
At this moment, the door of the emergency room opened and the doctor inside came out. Chen Xing's expression changed and he walked up to him. Doctor, how is the lady inside?
Fortunately, her body is very weak, but her vital signs are stable. In short, her life is not in danger. The doctor was wearing a mask and was wiping his sweat. He didn't notice the mayor, Chen Xing.
Good, good. Chen Xing breathed a sigh of relief. He was happy for Lin Hong. At least he survived.
Chen Xing was talking to a doctor. The two policemen from the Municipal Bureau also walked to the other doctor. They were here to take the bullet. The bullet was taken out after the operation. They wanted to take it back for investigation.
The doctor left. Lin Hong was also pushed out of the emergency room by the nurse. His face was very pale. It was because of the weakness caused by the loss of blood. Chen Xing didn't know when Lin Hong would wake up. He looked back at Yan Jun. Are you going to stay here to take care of her?
Yes, as long as the contract is not terminated, I have to protect Miss Lin 24 hours a day. Yan Jun said.
Okay, then you stay here to take care of her. If she wakes up, give me a call. Chen Xing said to the other party.
Leaving the hospital with He Yijun, Chen Xing asked while walking, "Are you sure who the shooter is aiming at?"
"There is not enough evidence to determine who the shooter is aiming at. After the bullet is taken back for testing, we can compare it with the two shooting cases last night. If it is the same, then it can be proved that the shooter is aiming at Lin Hong. But I personally think that it is unlikely that the shooter is aiming at you, Mayor Chen. We found the position of the shooter on the top floor opposite. According to the position of Mayor Chen and Miss Lin, as well as the angle of the shooter's position, the shooter should not have missed so much. So it is more likely that the shooter is aiming at Lin Hong." He Yijun said his opinion.
"I hope so. Otherwise, Lin Hong will suffer for me, and I will feel sorry." Chen Xing said with a wry smile. Thinking of the heavy little diary in his pocket, which recorded Li Haocheng's violations of the law and discipline, Chen Xing was very grateful to Lin Hong. If this little diary was put to good use, it was enough for him to shake the current situation of the municipal politics in Nanzhou. Chen Xing could maximize his own interests through this, and Li Haocheng was destined to become a victim. Politics was so cruel. If there was anything to blame, it could only be blamed that Li Haocheng had the handle in the hands of others.
At this time, Chen Xing's mobile phone rang. It was Chang Shengjun calling. In the past two days, Chang Shengjun seemed to have disappeared and had not contacted him. Chen Xing knew that Chang Shengjun was busy with the case, so he was not in a hurry to call him to ask about the progress of the case, which would put pressure on Chang Shengjun. Now that Chang Shengjun took the initiative to call him, Chen Xing hurriedly picked up.
"Mayor Chen, do you have time now? I want to sit with you." On the other end of the phone, Chang Shengjun said.
"Sit with me? If you have the leisure to sit with me, then I will definitely have time. " Chen Xing said with a smile. "I am outside now. You set a place, and I will go directly."
After the simple conversation, Chen Xing and He Yijun parted at the gate of the hospital. He Yijun went back to the police station, and Chen Xing went to meet Chang Shengjun. The investigation team in the team was a surprise force temporarily controlled by Chen Xing.
Chen Xing came to an ordinary milk tea shop mentioned by Chang Shengjun. Chang Shengjun was drinking a cup of hot milk tea, which was no different from ordinary people. People who did not know him would not imagine that this man, who looked like an uncle next door, was actually a fierce general of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security, who had once made many vicious criminals tremble with fear.
The milk tea shop was not small. Chang Shengjun sat in the last corner, and there was no one around. Chen Xing walked over. Seeing that Chen Xing had arrived, Chang Shengjun was about to stand up. Chen Xing hurriedly pressed his hand, motioning Chang Shengjun to sit down.
"How about it? With the cooperation of the Provincial Department and the Municipal Bureau, it is much faster to handle the case, right?" Chen Xing sat down and said with a smile.
Theoretically, it should be so, but it was not the case. Chang Shengjun whispered to Chen Xing, and his eyes swept around vigilantly, which was a habitual action.
"Oh? What do you mean? " Chen Xing looked at Chang Shengjun in confusion.
"Mayor Chen, I always feel that there is a hand secretly obstructing us from handling the case. I don't know whether the problem lies with the Provincial Department or the Municipal Bureau, but my intuition tells me that there must be a problem." Chang Shengjun's face was solemn. Although there was no substantial evidence, he dared to say such a thing, which was based on years of experience and intuition.
"How could there be a problem?" Chen Xing was very surprised. "Shengjun, in the Municipal Bureau, Lu Ming is in charge of assisting you in handling the case. He was transferred here from Hai City by me, and he can be regarded as my old subordinate. He is absolutely trustworthy. With him watching over the Municipal Bureau, there should be no problem. As for the Provincial Department, at first, Lu Ming was responsible for coordinating and cooperating with you in handling the case. However, Lu Ming was temporarily appointed as the Deputy Director of the Municipal Bureau, and Chief Captain Hou Jianqiang was in charge. This is the arrangement made by Deputy Governor Guan, so there shouldn't be any problem."
"This …" Chang Shengjun was speechless for a moment by Chen Xing's words. After hesitating for a moment, Chang Shengjun boldly asked, "Mayor Chen, is the arrangement made by Deputy Governor Guan reliable?"
"Shengjun, you may not know, but Deputy Governor Guan attaches great importance to this case. The arrangement he made must have been carefully considered. Let me tell you the truth, Deputy Governor Guan and I have a little personal friendship, so he supported me to the end this time. I was able to get Lu Ming from the Provincial Department to the Municipal Bureau as the Deputy Director because of his help. Otherwise, with so many eyes in the city watching me, it would not be so easy for me to do anything."
"I see." Hearing Chen Xing's explanation, Chang Shengjun was also lost in thought. He believed that his judgment was right. The task force of the Provincial Department and the Municipal Bureau must have a problem with one of them, or even both of them. However, Chang Shengjun and his subordinates were, after all, outsiders. Facing these experienced local departments, they couldn't find any clues at all, which made Chang Shengjun very distressed.
Mayor Chen, Zheng Guangfu has been in business for more than ten years since he made his fortune. We don't know what kind of interest network he has woven and how many officials are involved in it. I'm afraid no one can imagine this before the case is really investigated. Therefore, even if he is dead now, the officials who were related to him when he was alive certainly don't want the case to be investigated further. "These people may put pressure on the Provincial Department and the Municipal Bureau through various relationships. When it comes to the specific case, they are like an invisible wall, creating invisible obstacles for us. What's more terrible is that I suspect that there are senior leaders in the Provincial Department and the Municipal Bureau involved in Zheng Guangfu's case. They may support the investigation on the surface, but secretly set up obstacles. However, they are in the dark while we are in the light, so we can't detect them at all, which is very disadvantageous to us." Chang Shengjun said.
"What you said makes sense." Chen Xing frowned. It would be abnormal if there were no obstacles in the investigation of Zheng Guangfu's case. However, now that Jinhui had expressed his support, Chen Xing originally thought that the case would be much smoother, but Chang Shengjun said another situation.
Both of them fell into silence. Chang Shengjun came to talk to Chen Xing about this situation because he wanted to see if he could get more support from Chen Xing. Chen Xing's words also let Chang Shengjun know that Chen Xing was also not easy. Although he had the title of mayor, he was still restricted by others in everything he did. It was not very satisfactory.
Far away in New York.
In the early morning of late autumn, it was already a little cold. Li Haocheng had a long dream. In the dream, Li Haocheng dreamed that he was entangled with a woman. Li Haocheng did not know who the woman was, but he knew that it was someone he was very familiar with. The woman was very good at serving people. Li Haocheng was very comfortable being served by the woman, and then he ruthlessly violated the woman as if he had gone crazy. Li Haocheng was very excited, excited that he had never been, and he did not know fatigue. At the moment when he felt that he was about to reach the peak, Li Haocheng suddenly woke up and sat up in a cold sweat.
"Damn it, it turned out to be a dream." Li Haocheng wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. At the last moment, he dreamt that he was pushed off the cliff by the woman, and he died at the most comfortable moment. After that, he was scared awake. Rubbing his temples, Li Haocheng thought to himself that he was scared awake even in a dream. He was becoming more and more useless. Now, every time he finished with a woman, he felt his body getting more and more tired. It was a world of difference from when he was young.
After waking up, he no longer felt sleepy. Li Haocheng looked at Lin Qing, who was still sleeping soundly beside him. He carefully got off the bed and stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling glass window, looking at New York in the middle of the night. It was so prosperous and intoxicating. It was like the power in his hands, standing at a high place, enjoying the luxury of life.
Li Haocheng was in a daze. He thought back to the dream just now. Li Haocheng couldn't remember what the woman looked like no matter how hard he tried. He only knew that she was someone he was very familiar with, but he couldn't see her face clearly no matter how hard he tried. Her face seemed to be covered by a layer of fog. Li Haocheng tried his best to clear the fog and see her clearly, but he always failed.
"Damn it, what's the meaning of having this kind of dream? Being pushed off the cliff by a woman? Am I going to die under a peony flower? Am I going to be dissolute even if I become a ghost? It's really weird recently. I often have this kind of inauspicious dream." Li Haocheng cursed. When there was no one else around, Li Haocheng would usually curse. As a government official, he didn't necessarily have good manners.
After standing there for a while, Li Haocheng remembered that he still had missed a call. Just now, when he was having sex with Lin Qing, a call came in. Li Haocheng directly threw his phone to the side. After he was done, he fell asleep in exhaustion. He didn't have time to look at his phone at all.
He walked to the side of the sofa and felt around for a while before taking out his phone from the corner of the sofa. Li Haocheng looked at the number. It was the director of the Municipal Government, Huang Yonggang. The other party was his confidant. He had gone overseas for an inspection, and Huang Yonggang was equivalent to his informant in the country.
"Mayor, why didn't you answer the phone just now? Lin Hong is in trouble. He was shot in the back." Huang Yonggang said on the other end of the phone.
"What did you say? Li Haocheng's voice suddenly became louder. He didn't realize it at all. He just took his phone away and looked at the time. It was three o 'clock in the morning in New York. Then, it should be three o' clock in the afternoon in Nanzhou City. Li Haocheng said anxiously. When did this happen?
It was about three or four hours ago when I called you. Huang Yonggang said.
A few hours ago? Li Haocheng muttered to himself. His expression was a little sluggish. It wasn't because he was sad, but because he was shocked.
On the bed, Lin Qing woke up and opened her eyes. Her bright eyes were like a blade, flashing a cold light in the dark room. She glanced in the direction of Li Haocheng, then closed her eyes again.
"Mayor, there's another situation. Lin Hong was shot after coming out of the hotel with Chen Xing." Huang Yonggang said again.
