He ran away.
The traitorous prince, Qin Chuan, had miraculously deceived the judgment of the attending doctor and the surveillance of all the plainclothes officers. Taking advantage of the short gap between the guards, he successfully broke free from the handcuffs and escaped through the window, disappearing without a trace.
It took less than half an hour for Director Lu to urgently deploy surveillance after learning of the situation. However, the heavenly dragnet did not catch this cunning shark. From the hospital bed to the handcuffs on the window sill, his DNA was all over the outside wall. The surveillance cameras worked hard for two days, but in the end, they only found half of his blurry back at the exit of a highway, and his hand raised behind him in the wind.
That gesture seemed to be a farewell.
No one knew why Qin Chuan chose to escape that day. Perhaps it was because he had finally recuperated to the point where he could move, or perhaps it was because the guards had indeed been negligent when changing shifts that day. No one could figure out Qin Chuan's unpredictable good and evil. However, Director Lu said, "It could also be because he has been waiting for you."
Yan Ji, "Huh?"
"What are you talking about? Think about it. When we were talking in front of his hospital bed that day, he was actually awake the whole time and heard every word. When we left, he immediately got up and ran away. How do you think this can be explained?"
"…" Yan Ji was speechless for a moment. Director Lu sighed, "Since you don't want to go to jail, why did you lose your mind in the first place?"
Director Lu stood in front of the office window. The wolfberry chrysanthemum rock sugar tea rippled in the enamel tea pot, emitting spirals of steam. A thin layer of white mist condensed on his reading glasses. He just stared at the busy street in the distance, his eyes flashing with a faint light. After a while, he sighed again.
"Qin Chuan is a person with a righteous and loyal personality. It's my fault for not fulfilling my responsibility to guide him. When Old Yue left, I had suspected him. At that time, it was still not too late to rein in the horse at the edge of the cliff. However, he was too easy to show to the outside world. There was never a time when he was fixed, and he was always changing … "
"I'm old, I'm old!" Director Lu finally concluded self-deprecatingly.
Yan Ji wanted to say something to comfort him, but he did not know what to say. Director Lu turned around and walked to the front of the large desk. He quickly signed the notice of assistance in the investigation and raised the wanted poster in front of him. He sighed with emotion and narrowed his eyes.
"… I will bring him back," Yan Ji finally said in a low voice.
Director Lu nodded. Both of them were looking at the arrest warrant. Qin Chuan's handsome face was smiling back at them.
"Waiting for you?" Jiang Stops leaned against the headboard of the bed and closed the book "The Significance of DNA Methylation in Forensic Practice by Gou LI". He laughed and said, "Why would I wait for you? Your relationship with Chief Lu is too rich. Qin Haodong's escape was definitely not planned by him alone. It's very likely that he had an accomplice. The reason why he chose that day was that the time was just right. How could there be so much nonsense? "
Yang Mei was sitting on the sofa in the single VIP ward, drinking seafood soup. It was delicious and she nodded her head. She was not familiar with Qin Chuan, but Qin Chuan had once cut her brother Jiang's face. Therefore, he was ranked third in her little book of grudges. The fourth was the head waiter of the Gongzhou nightclub who had stolen her diamond necklace. The fifth was the owner of the KTV next door to the Nightless Palace who was competing with her for business.
As for the first and second place, they were already dead.
"Look at you, you're still drinking, still drinking!" Yan Ji scolded her, "I asked someone to make this for your brother Jiang to nourish his body. Why are you drinking it all?! Look at you, you've gained weight in the past two months. You don't even wash your hair or put on makeup. Do you still want to get married in the future? "
Jiang Stops was about to speak up to defend Yang Mei. When he heard the word "marriage", he immediately felt a sense of urgency and stared at Yang Mei reproachfully.
"Why would I want to get married?" Yang Mei wiped her mouth and said coldly, "I'm fine living alone. I can earn money to buy a bag, a house, and jewelry. I can go to a big meal and yoga class with Han Xiaomei on weekends. What's better than that?"
"Although, but …" Yan Ji did not give up.
Yang Mei's next sentence made him speechless, "No buts. The profit of the Nightless Palace is three times a year. I have plenty of money!"
Yan Ji, who knew the benefits of being rich, had to admit that these words were very confident.
Jiang Stops smiled and shook his head helplessly. He opened Director Gou's latest work (signed version) again and asked casually, "Has the notice of assisting in the investigation been released?"
"It has been released long ago. If not, would I wait until the New Year?" Yan Ji sighed and said, "But according to the latest development, he may have already escaped from S Province. The hope of catching him in a short period of time is quite slim."
Jiang Stops said, "I think he may have gone abroad."
"Gone abroad?"
Jiang Stops turned a page and pursed his lips. "Qin Chuan is a person who doesn't do things to the extreme. He likes to use someone else to do his dirty work. He likes to leave a backup plan. When he was loyal to the King Of Spades, he secretly expressed his goodwill to Wang Xingye. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left a flaw in the civilian surveillance system, which led to him being caught by Director Lu. Other than Wang Xingye, who can't do anything right, I think he has other contacts. He may have already prepared more than one backup plan for himself. "
Yan Ji was deep in thought. Jiang Stops continued, "I think you should have seen this point long ago. The difference between Qin Chuan and ordinary people is that the good and evil in his personality is fluctuating. The reason why Wen Shao began to lure him into the water more than ten years ago was not only because he was the only son that Yue Guangping owed a lot to, but also because he smelled a side of Qin Chuan that was similar to his — they both liked the feeling of controlling evil in their hands. When Qin Chuan deliberately asked Aje for the 92-grade police gun in front of me, he pointed the gun at Aje's head and pretended to hit him. He didn't care that Aje was already suspicious, because he enjoyed the thrill of pulling chestnuts out of the fire in people's hearts. Compared to Wen Shao, Qin Chuan only has an additional curse in his heart. "
"If possible, it's best to bring him to justice as soon as possible." Jiang Stops paused and concluded, "Otherwise, I'm afraid that he may gradually evolve into the second King Of Spades under the influence of external forces."
Would Qin Chuan walk on that path of no return?
No one could say for sure, but Yan Ji felt that there was more to Qin Chuan than the King Of Spades than just the curse in his heart, there was something else.
However, this could only be known when he caught Qin Chuan with his own hands.
Jiang Stops's case had not been settled yet. Director Lu said that it was because the Provincial Directorate of S City had been wrangling with the Gongzhou Municipal Bureau. Ever since Deputy Bureau Chief Hu came to give his statement, Jiang Stops had been interrogated several times. Every time he came out, he felt more nervous. However, since he couldn't wait for the results, he gradually calmed down. He told Yan Ji that he wasn't afraid even if he was sentenced to a few years in prison. He said that he would bring Gou LI's latest book and the Prajna Paramita Sutra to the detention center. When he was released, he would be a multi-talented knife polishing master.
Yan Ji smiled bitterly and said, "I can't do anything else, but I'll definitely help you get medical parole. Don't worry."
