Siheyuan: Kill Han Qingkui, Tian Zao is entangled with me

Chapter 157: Lure the tiger away from the mountain, Sun Tie was shot
"That won't work. If we go by ourselves, it will be like we are using public funds, and it will be hard to explain."

"You are amazing! Okay, I'll go first."

Coming out of Lou’s Garment Factory, Zheng Chaoyang was humming a little tune, and the two people behind him were half a car length slower than him.

"Many police officers"

"Why are you calling me so polite? Just follow Qilala and call me Master Duo."

"Master Duoduo! Are we really going to Fengze Garden? It's so precious there!"

"So Chaoyang wants to say something about you! We were there to handle a case, and the client's family members were grateful to us and invited us to dinner, so what? We didn't accept any gifts, and we didn't make any excessive demands. What can others say? It's just that the three words Fengze Garden are too shocking. Let me put it this way! Even Director Luo has eaten there. If there is really something wrong, there are tall people above to support us, so it has nothing to do with us!"

Sun Tie nodded as if he understood, and continued pedaling hard to catch up.

When he arrived outside Fengze Garden, Sun Tie was in a dilemma again. He happened to see his former wrestling partner passing by.

"Master Sun, why don't you come to the wrestling arena?"

"You all here? Something happened at home, so I won't be there for the time being. Can you tell the others for me?"

Zheng Chaoyang watched from the side, and Duomen parked his bicycle and came over.

"Are these disciples of yours still colleagues?"

"Some are colleagues, some are apprentices, how do you say it?"

"The Public Security Bureau is hiring people right now. Ask them if they want to change jobs. Regular employees need to be assessed."

"Really? Many of them are just trying to make a living. I'll go ask them later!"

"Didn't Sui Dayong and his orphans get brought to the police station? We were really short of manpower at the time, and they really helped us a lot, so Director Luo made an exception. If they come, they may have to go to the police school for a while, but once they pass the enrollment registration, the school will provide food and accommodation."

At this time Kong San and Qingpi also came over.

"Master Sun, what are you doing?"

"Master Kong, Qingpi is here too!"

"Kong San, we're leaving first!"

Qingpi and other wrestlers who perform for money are not of the same kind as these people. Seeing Zheng Chaoyang and Duomen there, Qingpi would not be there at all.

"Let's go together! Master Sun, goodbye!"

These people are not willing to have much dealings with officials.

"Master Sun, you haven't seen enough, come in!"

Sun Tie sighed, shook his head and followed in.

Qingpi's apprentice witnessed it all and immediately went back to report it.

"Did you see everything clearly? Did Sun Tie really enter Fengze Garden?"

"Master, how could I be wrong? I thought they were going to the North China Theater! What connections do you think Sun Tie has made that he has the money to enter Fengze Garden?"

"Just ask Kong San and you'll know. Aren't they on good terms?"

Kong San just sat down at a street food stall and was confused when asked by the young man.

"I haven't seen him for a long time, how do I know all this? Wasn't it Dayong who just passed by? Dayong, over here!"

"Master Kong! What's the matter?"

"It's time for dinner, why don't you sit down and eat together?"

"I have something else to say! If you have something to say, please tell me!"

"Has Tiedan contacted you recently?"

"Don't even mention it. Sister Zao is upset about this! I won't say anymore. I have something else to do! I'm leaving now!"

Watching Sui Dayong riding away on his bicycle, several people showed playful smiles in their eyes.

"Master, I just saw Dayong enter Fengze Garden!"

"What? What's going on in Fengze Garden today? Anyone can go in? Let's go and take a look!"

But just as the young man entered, the shopkeeper of Fengze Garden came out with a big smile on his face, "Would you like to eat, gentlemen? Please come in!"

"Is there anything good happening at Fengze Garden today?"

"Good news? Oh, is it a good thing that all the tables are booked? There are too many of you, so you may have to wait for a while!"

Qingpi and his disciples returned to the snack stand in shame.

Thinking that Sun Tie and Dayong could both get in, he felt a nameless anger rising up in his heart.

In a private room in Fengze Garden, all the cold dishes have been served.

"Where is Zong Xiangfang?"

"Brother Zheng, Zong Xun said he has a case on hand and can't leave, so he asked me to bring something back for him."

"Fine!"

It seems that the pressure from Zheng Chaoshan is too great for him.

It’s good not to go out for the time being.

"Everyone, take your seats! Isn't this a single portion? Why does this lunch box look familiar to me?"

"This is Uncle Hao's lunch box, and this one was forced upon me by Director Luo."

Sun Tie, who was standing by, was stunned.

Duomen just stood there and laughed.

"Hot food is coming!"

"Don't just stand there, pick up your chopsticks! This is a treat from the family of the person involved in the case. It would be a waste if you don't eat."

Lou Zhenhua was speechless. You don’t even pretend now, right?

"By the way, I asked Master Nan about the fried chicken shop in Nanchizi. Just sprinkling with flour won't work. Foreigners like to dip their chicken in water, which is a dipping sauce. Go back and tell your brother. Find more cooks to mix some sweet and spicy sauce, sweet noodle sauce, spicy sauce, sweet and sour sauce. Yes, Russians and Germans like pickles, so you can put them in."

"We'll have a party at home later and invite you. You can tell him yourself. There are so many things. Are you going to tire me to death?"

"When? I'm a bit busy at the beginning of next month."

"I know. I won't be so stupid as to wait until that day. When the time comes, our whole family will be watching from the Xizhimen Tower."

"Okay then, just be careful then."

"Didn't you catch them all? Is there still danger?"

"How could we catch hundreds of thousands of people? Every day, spies of all sizes come to Xu Zongren's residence to surrender. They are all from his faction."

Lou Zhenhua nodded. He had also heard about this matter.

"So if they hand in their weapons and register, they'll become good people?"

"We can't rule out the possibility that some people are using tricks to pay a portion and keep a portion, and then come back to cause trouble for us."

"I'll take security measures."

Sun Tie was just struggling with the smashed cucumber in front of him.

"Master Duo, don't just focus on eating by yourself. Take care of these two children. They don't even use their chopsticks. How can we finish all this?"

"The hot sauce you gave me last time has increased the return rate of Fengzeyuan. If I don't call to make a reservation now, I may not be able to eat it."

"Where do so many Sichuanese come from in this city? Sichuanese people can't get used to that hot sauce!"

"It's strange, but Wei Qiang always comes here recently, along with his driver."

"There's a driver with a mole here?"

"You know? Yes, I've seen it two or three times."

Zheng Chaoyang felt it necessary to set up a monitoring line here in Fengze Garden.

But after thinking about it, I decided to give up. There would be too many people in Fengze Garden, and I wouldn’t be able to capture any useful audio.

It would be better to just go there and leave Jin Lip in his Sijiu City Chamber of Commerce!
Dayong was more relaxed, and soon his face was covered with grease.

"Brother Tiedan, Sister Zao told me not to talk to you, but I still have something to tell you. Kong San just asked me about you, and I didn't tell him the truth."

"Thank you, Dayong!"

"Are you one of us now?"

"Dayong, I was just about to praise you for being sensible, but my old habit came back. We are police officers, so we must keep our mouths shut!"

"Brother Zheng is right! By the way, Brother Zheng, I see Sister Bai Ling knows how to do the 'dudududu' move. Can you teach me?"

"Want to learn? It depends on whether you have the comprehension ability. Come to my office later to find me."

Sui Dayong was very happy. He understood the principle that having many skills is always a waste.

"Team Leader Zheng, I want to learn too. Although I know a little bit, I'm not very good at it."

"Okay, teaching one is teaching, teaching two is also teaching."

During this time, Suo Qian came in and said hello, "Officer Zheng, I want to apologize for asking you to rent a house last time. It really wasn't me!"

"I understand. Manager Suo, don't worry. I know everything."

"Xiu Lan said there seems to be a vacant house for rent in the courtyard next door, No. 95, but you may have to go to the street government to handle the relevant procedures."

Now that the army has not yet entered the city and the Housing Management Office has not yet been established, many courtyard houses are privately owned.

"Okay, I'll use tea instead of wine to thank Manager Suo for telling me the truth."

"No, no, I'll get busy first!"

Suo Qian knew that his relationship with Zheng Chaoyang was not as close as Dayong's. He had an opportunity in front of him, but he threw it away.

"Team Leader Zheng, it's almost time. I still need to keep an eye on the movements of those houses. I'll leave first!"

"Dayong, pack some dry food for Sun Tie to take with him on the road! For people in our line of work, sleeping outdoors is a common occurrence."

Dayong stood up and started putting buns into the oil paper bag for Sun Tie.

"I'll send it to you!"

Zheng Chaoyang stood up and sent Sun Tie out. Duomen looked at his back with suspicion and continued to eat noodles.

Although the fried noodles from Fengze Garden are not authentic, they taste better the more you eat them.

"Team Leader Zheng, what are you doing?"

"Come in and put this vest on."

"How can I wear yours when I have my own?"

"Put it on! I'm not discussing this with you, I'm giving you an order! You're out on the field, facing criminals directly. I only have one request, come back alive! Don't alert the criminals!"

Sun Tie was not stupid. He took the vest and pinched the material. This vest was different from the underwear he understood to be worn underneath.

He thought of the clothes he had seen at Lou's Garment Factory just now, and wore them inside as advised.

"Okay, go ahead! I still say the same thing, if you find anything wrong, call for support immediately. Don't go deep into the enemy alone. The enemy you face is far more dangerous than you know!"

"Yes, Team Leader Zheng! I promise to complete the task! I used to..."

"It's all in the past. As a Communist Party member, the organization wants to investigate you, which means that your work is not done carefully enough. Don't complain! Go!"

Sun Tie's nose felt sore. At this moment, looking back on the past, he realized that he was particularly childish.

He thought of Gao Zhiyuan's face. There is no harm without comparison.

The winner is clear! Back in the private room, Dayong and Duomen were already exhausted and fell down.

Even if you are tired of eating, you are still a talent.

"There are still so many left. Dayong, Duoye, pack them all up and take them back! Pour out everything in Hao Pingchuan's lunch box and stuff these in. He doesn't care about this! Send these to Bai Ling. Do you understand?"

"You are such a stingy person. I have already arranged Comrade Bai Ling's share for you."

As he was talking, Suo Qian came again, carrying two food boxes in his hands.

"Look at you, you've exceeded your quota again. Okay, okay, okay, I won't be polite with you. When I was undercover, I should have come to you for free food and drinks."

"Fortunately you didn't come, otherwise the Japanese devils and the secret service would have invited me to have tea!"

Several people burst into laughter.

"Boss, the kitchen exhaust fan is broken, and it's smoky outside. You should leave first!"

"What's going on? Have you called for maintenance?"

"The other party said that the Chinese New Year is coming soon and he can't spare the time, and he can only come after the New Year."

"Isn't this nonsense? That's not what I said when I bought their machine! Go, call the steel mill. What are you doing?"

"Manager Suo, please get the other diners away first. I'll go check in the kitchen!"

The entire corridor to the kitchen, which was originally a distance of about ten steps, suddenly became difficult.

"Chaoyang, stop it!"

"Don't worry about it. I can't eat your meal for free. I'll do you a favor!"

I finally found the direction of the kitchen, and saw something burning on several stoves inside.

Zheng Chaoyang first went over and moved the wok on the stove aside, turned off the stove, and then began to take out the universal tool box +4 from the space.

With all the necessary tools in hand, they opened the exhaust machine's casing and started maintenance.

"Ahem, officer Zheng, are you in there?"

"I'm here, don't come in! I just turned off the stove, evacuate everyone first!"

"Oh, well, you too. Ahem!"

Zheng Chaoyang felt that the sudden large amount of smoke backflow might be caused by a blockage in the external equipment.

But there should have been signs of congestion long ago; it couldn't have appeared all of a sudden.

He put down the work in his hands, walked out of the kitchen, and then met Lou Zhenhua and Duomen and others in the lobby.

"Forget about it if it can't be repaired. I'll urge that family to fix it later. Do they really think that my Lou family is made of clay?"

"Don't talk yet. Where does the exhaust pipe in the back kitchen lead to? Take me there quickly!"

"I know, Officer Zheng, please follow me!"

Suo Qian is still quite responsible, and he knows the huge territory of Fengze Garden very well.

"You seem very familiar with this place!"

"To be honest, I often came here when I was a kid. The emperors of the Qing Dynasty liked to hold banquets here. Isn't this familiar to you?"

The two men came to the exhaust area in the back kitchen and saw at a glance that the not-too-thick exhaust pipe was blocked by something.

"What's going on?"

"Go get a ladder, and call the people at the Fifth District Police Station and have them send someone over immediately!"

Why is it the Outer Fifth District Branch?

Zheng Chaoyang deliberately wanted to involve Qin Defu in this case.

As long as you are busy, you will not be able to take care of Zheng Qiang.

Once Zheng Qiang is straightened out, the reverse process will be smooth.

"Okay, I'll go right away. Do I need to call the police?"

"Can't you see this is man-made? I said it was fine in the front, but suddenly it was blocked."

Suo Qian called a few men over and carried a wooden ladder over.

"Put it here, put it here! What are you doing?"

"Go up and take a look at the scene. Don't you have to make some preparations? Don't come up. You'll destroy the scene later."

Lin Zheng and his team from the Fifth District Police Station arrived at the scene very quickly. After they inquired about the situation, someone came over here.

"Zheng Chaoyang, what are you doing? Who told you to go up there? You are destroying the scene, do you know that?"

"Who are you grinning at? I asked them to call the police because this is the jurisdiction of the Outer Fifth District Police Station. Do you really think that we can't solve the case without you? If you have the time, there are a lot of scattered traces on the ground. Find someone to take pictures and collect them! What are you looking at? If you can't investigate the case, go back and find Director Lin!"

As soon as Ye Dapeng saw Zheng Chaoyang, he became furious.

Not only did nothing happen after the beating he did last time, but I was also blamed and transferred directly to the Jiaodaokou Police Station.

If Lin Zheng hadn't given him the order this time, he would not have been qualified to come to the scene.

"I remember correctly, your Jiaodaokou Police Station's jurisdiction is not here, right? But you, what qualifications do you have to shout here? Stop him, if he dares to destroy the scene, I will file a complaint with the higher-ups!"

This made Ye Dapeng very angry.

I originally thought that I would be the first to arrive at the scene, solve the case, and take credit for it from Director Lin. Maybe I would even have a chance to return to the Fifth District Police Station. I didn't expect to meet my enemy Zheng Chaoyang here.

"Zheng Chaoyang, what are you doing? You have no rights."

"I have the power. No matter what, I have it all. The Municipal Bureau is handling the case. All irrelevant personnel must step back! Master Duo, call the bureau for support!"

"Got it!"

He gave the lunch box in his hand to Dayong early in the morning and sent it back to the bureau first. He knew that Zheng Chaoyang did not get along with the group in the Fifth District Bureau, and if he was seen, people would gossip about him.

He actually figured it out.

When Lin Zheng followed Qin Defu, he happened to meet Duomen who was leaving on a bicycle.

Qin Defu naturally knew a lot of things, and whispered a few words in Lin Zheng's ear.

"Why are they here? What happened? Comrade Zheng Chaoyang, why did you climb so high?"

"Can't you see I'm collecting evidence? Is this how you usually handle cases in the Outer District 5 Police Station? Where are the people collecting evidence? I've been waiting for so long. If it suddenly rains or too many people destroy the scene, you won't take any protective measures, right?"

Bai Ling: You seem to be stealing my lines, but I have no evidence.

Not long after, Duomen came back on a bicycle, followed suit, put tape on the soles of his shoes, and started looking for traces.

"Manager Suo, has anyone suspicious come to Fengze Garden just now?"

"If we talk about suspicious people, they are probably Qingpi's group. They originally wanted to come in for dinner and asked some weird questions."

"What are you asking?"

"They want to know if Fengzeyuan is holding any activities today? We have a lot of people eating here every day."

In order not to offend either side, Suo Qian answered some questions from the Fifth District Police Station in a circumstantial manner and did not mention a single word about Zheng Chaoyang and his friends having dinner here.

Bai Ling and the others arrived quickly, and were also confused when they saw Lin Zheng and the others.

"Comrade Bai Ling, there are some footprints here, here, and there. This shows that the person walking there had very strong muscles and walked very hard, so the shoe prints are very clear."

Following Duomen's instructions, Bai Ling took out the Zeiss camera and started taking pictures to collect evidence.

"Bai Ling, can you come up?"

"Why not?"

Handing the box in her hand to Duomen beside her, Bai Ling climbed up the wooden ladder to the top.

"Be careful, don't guess those shoe prints."

"Shoe prints? Where are the shoe prints?"

"Look carefully at those mossy areas, you can see that there is a spot where the tip of a shoe is left."

A series of crackling sounds were heard, and Bai Ling walked to the position next to Zheng Chaoyang.

"There is still a lot of moss in these fillings, and these tiles are very damp. When he was looking for the blockage, he stayed here for a long time. If you try to collect evidence here, you may collect fingerprints."

Zheng Chaoyang was like feeding her. There were dialog boxes everywhere, which he shrunk down, leaving only those places that were particularly easy to overlook.

The collected powder was brushed on the position pointed by Zheng Chaoyang, and half a thumbprint appeared.

Another clicking sound was heard.

"Director, let them continue."

"Ye Dapeng, what's wrong with you? Who asked you to come?"

"not me."

Originally, Zheng Chaoyang and the others were not present. If you were here, Lin Zheng would not say a word and no one would gossip about you.

But this is Meishikou, not your place of business, and you are no longer a member of the branch.

He even had a conflict with his comrades from the Municipal Bureau here.

"Why don't you let me go back?"

Qin Defu shook his head. How could such a fool gain such great trust?
If all Communists were like this, it would be easy to do good to them, but unfortunately they are not.

The two on the roof are so smart that it's scary.

There was nothing wrong with Fengzeyuan. Since they had discovered the case, it would be reasonable for them to ask the police station to come and check the scene.

But how could you bypass the branch office and find people from the municipal bureau?

"Director Lin, I'd like to trouble you to invite those Qingpi people back to question them!"

"Team Leader Zheng, why do you think Qingpi and the others are suspicious?"

"Master Duo, please explain this to Director Lin!"

Duomen told Lin Zheng about his observations, saying that those traces were likely to appear in people of certain professions, but not in ordinary people.

"Chief Qin, take your men to the overpass and bring back Qingpi and the others!"

"Yes, Director!"

"Director Lin, the branch should be equipped with evidence collection personnel, right? This time, our city bureau will hand over a copy of the evidence collection materials to you. I hope you can do it yourself next time."

Bai Ling spoke to Lin Zheng bluntly, took the box handed to her by Duomen, and put the collected evidence in it.

When I arrived at the entrance of Fengze Garden, I saw Sun Tie, sweating profusely, lying on his bicycle.

"What's wrong? What's wrong with you?"

"Team Leader Zheng, Team Leader Bai, I found traces of Zheng Qiang and his gang!"

After saying this, he fainted.

Only then did Bai Ling notice the bullet holes behind him, there seemed to be several of them.

"He's been shot!"

Zheng Chaoyang checked Sun Tie’s injuries immediately. Fortunately, all the bullets were hit on the vest. One of the bullets was stuck in the area near the vest and shoulder blade, causing some abrasions.

"Master Duo, call the police station and surround that compound! I'll take him to the hospital!"

Without Zheng Chaoyang's instructions, Bai Ling had already called for a car to come over, and several people lifted Sun Tie onto the back seat.
