Detective: From the Police Academy

Chapter 422 Elevator attacked!

The elevator slowly goes up...

When she heard the footsteps behind her, Qiao Xue immediately turned sideways alertly and leaned her back against the left wall of the elevator.

She tilted her head slightly and looked at the two doctors behind her.

The first impression is that it is so clean!
The white doctor's robes these two people were wearing were so clean that there was not a single stain on the cuffs and lapels, and creases could be seen on the sides.

It's just daybreak now, and if you are a doctor on night shift, your clothes are likely to be wrinkled.

Secondly, these two people avoided eye contact and behaved a little strangely. If they were interns, their ages didn’t seem to match.

Just as Qiao Xue was wondering, the elevator arrived at the fifth floor.

With a "ding" sound, the elevator door opened and a middle-aged woman in a blue cleaning suit came in pushing a metal square cart filled with black garbage bags containing medical waste.

The hospital's elevator has a large space, mainly to accommodate stretchers and beds.

When the metal cart pushed in, it immediately split the two men in half.

On the same side as Qiao Xue was the short doctor, with a surveillance camera hanging from the ceiling above his head.

The elevator closed immediately. Qiao Xue looked at the short man and was about to speak when the cell phone in her pocket suddenly rang.

The ringtone broke the silence. Qiao Xue transferred the food bag in her right hand to her left hand, then took out her cell phone from her pocket.

After taking a look at the screen, Qiao Xue answered the call.

At the same time, the cleaning lady looked at the tall doctor on her side and asked, "Doctor, are you making rounds so early?"

"Yes." The tall man answered casually and tilted his head to look at Qiao Xue.

Qiao Xue put the phone to her ear and saw the cleaning lady frowning and asked, "Why haven't I seen you before?"

At this moment, Fang Yonghui's voice rang on the phone: "Sister Qiao, Sun Zhihao died, and there were two gangsters..."

Before he finished speaking and Qiao Xue realized what was going on, the short man on her right suddenly rushed over.

A shining dagger stabbed straight at him.

Qiao Xue's eyes narrowed and she threw the phone at the other person's head.

The phone hit the other person's face, but it did not hinder the short man's actions.

He stabbed at her with a knife. Qiao Xue had nowhere to hide, so she quickly picked up a bunch of black garbage bags from the cart and used them to block herself.

"puff!"

The blade pierced into the garbage bag, making a dull sound.

The cleaning lady was so frightened that she froze on the spot. Before she could react, the mop in her hand was snatched away by the tall man.

The tall man grasped the lower end of the mop and poked hard at the surveillance camera on the ceiling.

The surveillance was immediately turned off.

"Kill her, quickly!" the tall man shouted. Because of the metal garbage truck's obstruction, he was trapped in a blind spot and couldn't get through.

Just as the short man was about to draw out his dagger, Qiao Xue held the garbage bag in both hands, pushed it forward, took a bow step, stretched out her right foot, and kicked hard at the short man's knee.

The short guy got hit with the knee and was pushed into the corner.

He held the knife in his backhand, leaned forward, and stabbed towards Qiao Xue's head.

At the same time, the tall man on the opposite side also stabbed forward with the mop handle in his hand.

Only a few seconds passed before the cleaning lady reacted and started shouting at the top of her lungs while pressing the elevator button: "Murder, murder..."

Qiao Xue dodged backwards and the mop handle missed the target, but the dagger was right in front of her.

She had been forced into a corner, her heart pounding.

"Sun Zhihao died..."

"Sun Zhihao died..."

This was the only thought in her mind, and the blood in her body froze.

But years of training and vigilance had formed memory in her muscles. She lifted the hem of her clothes, pulled out her service pistol, and pulled the safety.

But she knew she was too late. Before she could raise her gun, the other party stabbed her with a knife.

At the critical moment, she hurriedly pulled the metal garbage truck on the side towards her.

The metal garbage truck was dragged in front of her, and the gangster rushing towards her was immediately blocked, and the knife was right in front of Qiao Xue's nose.

She quickly reached out and grabbed the other person's wrist holding the knife, and with her other hand she raised the muzzle of the gun and pointed it at the other person's chest.

"Police! Drop your weapons!"

The short man was clamped and dragged backwards. Qiao Xue held his wrist tightly and refused to let go. When the other party tried to grab the gun, she quickly moved the muzzle of the gun downwards, ready to pull the trigger.

But out of the corner of her eye she saw the tall man in the corner opposite her also raised his gun.

"Put down your gun, or I'll kill you!"

Qiao Xue's blood froze. The other person was holding a police gun.

She was about to speak, but she saw the other party glance at the floors the elevator was going up to. It had already reached the eleventh floor. He turned his head and slightly bent his index finger on the trigger.

Qiao Xue's pupils dilated, and she quickly let go of the short man and squatted down quickly.

"boom!"

Gunshots rang out in the elevator!

The spinning bullet hit the place where Qiao Xue had been standing before. The bullet collided with the metal plate, creating a dazzling spark, and the shrapnel bounced back at an angle, brushing past the cleaning lady's shoulder.

"Murder, murder!" The cleaning lady was so scared that she squatted down and blood immediately gushed out of her shoulder.

Then, with a "ding" sound, the elevator door opened and we arrived at the twelfth floor.

The cleaning lady tumbled and crawled out of the elevator.

The tall man also quickly retreated, keeping the gun raised.

The short man was squeezed inside. When the shooting started, he huddled in the corner and held his head. At this time, seeing the door open, he dragged the garbage truck and tried to run out of the elevator.

At this time, the tall man had retreated to the corridor outside the elevator.

"boom!"

"boom!"

Qiao Xue squatted in the corner in front of the elevator and took the initiative to fire several shots outside.

The tall man dodged to the right and pulled the trigger.

"Bang, bang..."

Because of the angle, he couldn't hit Qiao Xue at all, but bullets poured out without mercy.

"Boom, bang..."

Bullets bounced up and down in the elevator, and the short man was hit instantly, with his waist and thighs hit by the bullets.

"Don't fucking shoot!"

He pushed the garbage truck hard, trying to rush out, but Qiao Xue was holding the legs of the truck tightly, so he couldn't push it at all.

The tall man glanced anxiously to both sides of the corridor, then pointed the gun at the short man.

The short man opened his eyes wide and gasped: "Don't... don't kill me..."

"Bang, bang..."

The bullet instantly hit the short man's chest, his pleading voice stopped abruptly, his body leaned back, and slowly slid down along the metal plate at the back of the car.

"boom!"

The tall man gritted his teeth, a trace of sadness flashed across his eyes, and he fired the last bullet in the gun chamber.

The bullet hit the shorter man in the face, and his head dropped to his shoulders as he slid down onto the metal floor.

The tall man threw the pistol into the elevator, reached out to press the elevator button, and quickly ran deep into the corridor.

The moment the elevator door closed, Qiao Xue let out a long breath. She glanced at the short man's body, then stood up, walked over the garbage truck, and pressed the elevator button hard.

Fortunately, the elevator did not go down. After the door opened, Zhang Yong rushed over. When he saw the scene, he was shocked and took out his gun and wanted to chase someone.

"Sister Qiao, which direction did the criminal run to?"

Qiao Xue's face turned pale, and she hurriedly stopped him, still in shock: "Don't chase me!"

"But……"

Qiao Xue shook her head weakly: "With Director Luo here, he can't get away."

As soon as Zhang Yong saw the scene in front of him, he knew that the criminals should not have run far, so he still wanted to give it a try: "Sister Qiao, we can't let go of the opportunity in front of us!"

Qiao Xue supported herself on her knees, stood up, and glared at him fiercely: "Sun Zhihao has sacrificed himself! His life is his own! Listen to me, don't chase him!"

Zhang Yong was shocked. He ran over when he heard the gunshots. When he heard Qiao Xue's words, he was stunned.

Qiao Xue pushed the garbage truck away and staggered out of the elevator.

Zhang Yong saw blood gushing out of her thighs, waist and abdomen.

"Sister Qiao!" He quickly supported Qiao Xue and turned to look at the nurse station: "Someone come, don't hide, someone is injured, come quickly..."

Qiao Xue panted: "Notify Director Luo, quickly notify Director Luo..."

------------

Qingyang Municipal Bureau, in the conference room.

"There are three years between the [404] and [718] cases. Are these the only two suspicious cases? What role did this group of people play? Aren't there any problems with the murder cases that your Qingyang City Bureau has investigated in recent years?"

Hearing Luo Rui's words, people from the Municipal Bureau, Procuratorate and Court were stunned.

Afterwards, the people from the three departments looked at each other, and an old comrade who was in charge of the procuratorate coughed twice: "Uh, Secretary An, Director Pan, we have something else to do at the unit, so we'll leave first."

A deputy chief judge of the court pushed up the frame of his glasses and looked at Secretary An: "Um... it's not easy for us to interfere in your system's affairs. Should we leave first?"

The two groups of people didn't even look at Luo Rui, they just left with their briefcases.

There is no doubt that they threw this mess to the Qingyang Municipal Bureau. Of course, it is not ruled out that they want to go back quickly, report to their superiors and distance themselves from the matter.

If what Luo Rui said was true, then not only the [404 case] and [718 case] were problematic, but the issues involved were extremely large and could not be handled by a city-level unit.

Secretary An was as stiff as a petrified corpse, and Pan Changfeng's back was covered in cold sweat.

He looked around the meeting room and saw that everyone in it was his own people, so he said to Luo Rui: "Luo... Director Luo, this is just your one-sided statement..."

Upon hearing his words, Luo Rui's anger suddenly rose: "At this point, Director Pan is still stubborn and stubborn? Let me tell you, this group of people are hiding in the dark, constantly committing murders. If we don't catch them, more innocent people will die!"

Pan Changfeng knew he was in the wrong, so he lowered his head and did not answer.

Luo Rui looked at Secretary An and said, "What I mean is, either you report it to the higher-ups, or I will do it. Secretary An, if you go and state it yourself, there is still room for maneuver. If I speak to the higher-ups, the nature of the matter will be different."

He had good intentions, but Secretary An glanced at him coldly: "Even if you find suspicious points, it does not count as evidence. I think we need to hold a meeting for these two cases. We need to discuss the specifics..." Luo Rui's pupils shrank: "Secretary An!"

"Okay." Secretary An raised his hand and forced a smile: "Director Luo, these two cases are internal affairs of our Qingyang City Bureau. Thank you for your help, and I promise that everyone in the city bureau will investigate it thoroughly.

If we can't figure it out, we can ask the provincial department for help. What do you think?"

Pan Changfeng immediately agreed, "Yes, yes, Director Luo, even if it involves other cases, we will also investigate, you don't need to worry, and we will definitely arrest that mysterious woman, it's too much trouble for you to come all the way here.

How about this, we host the party..."

"You want to chase people away?" Luo Rui said bluntly.

Pan Changfeng smiled and looked at the detachment leader Chen Changyi: "Team Leader Chen, take Director Luo and the others to rest, and make better arrangements for their food and lodging."

Luo Rui ignored him and looked at Sun Kang who was standing beside him.

"Director Sun, do you think so too?"

The muscles under Sun Kang's eyes twitched, and a sense of panic arose in his heart.

"Director Sun..." Luo Rui called him again.

Sun Kang came back to his senses and looked at Secretary An and Pan Changfeng: "Secretary An, Director Pan, this case is too big. Our Qingyang City Bureau may not be able to solve it as soon as possible. I think with the assistance of Director Luo, this case can be quickly advanced..."

Before he could finish his words, Luo Rui's cell phone, which he had placed on the conference table, suddenly rang.

But he ignored them and stared at the three people in front of him.

The ringing continued, and at the same time, Cai Xiaojing's cell phone also rang.

Cai Xiaojing picked up the phone and held it to her ear. She only listened to one sentence and then stood up in a hurry. She was so excited that the chair behind her fell to the ground with a loud bang.

Luo Rui turned to look at her: "What's wrong?"

Cai Xiaojing raised her face, her eyes were red, she bit her lip and replied with a hint of tears: "Sun...Sun Zhihao died..."

These words were like a huge rock hitting the calm lake, creating a thousand huge waves!
"What did you say?" Luo Rui suspected that he had heard it wrongly: "Who, who died?"

"Sun Zhihao!" Cai Xiaojing swallowed her saliva and tried hard not to let her tears fall: "He was attacked by gangsters and was killed..."

Sun Kang was completely stunned, as if he couldn't believe what was said.

Sun Zhihao was on a temporary assignment in the provincial department and was the deputy captain of the criminal police team at the Qingyang Municipal Bureau. Everyone in the conference room was familiar with him.

When everyone heard the news, they were shocked.

------------

Municipal People’s Hospital, emergency room.

Fang Yonghui felt dizzy, his face was numb, and his eyes stared dully at Sun Zhihao who was lying on the hospital bed.

Sun Zhihao's head was covered with a white cloth, so his face could not be seen. The bed sheet was stained with scarlet blood. One of his hands was exposed, with his fingers slightly bent.

He stood there for an unknown amount of time before the door of the emergency room was suddenly pushed open.

Luo Rui's figure appeared in front of him, and Fang Yonghui shrank into the corner in fear.

Then, a large group of people filed in. No one made a sound, and only the sound of heavy footsteps could be heard.

Luo Rui originally wanted to walk to the head of the bed, but then he moved his body sideways to let Sun Kang move forward.

Sun Kang stood in front of the bed with a serious expression, not moving at all.

But in the end, he took a deep breath and lifted the white cloth covering Sun Zhihao.

His face was revealed.

His eyes were closed and his expression was painful.

Next was his chest and abdomen. His chest had been stabbed more than a dozen times. The densely packed wounds were shocking to see, and a large amount of black blood clotted on the collar of his shirt.

The muscles on Sun Kang's cheeks twitched and he bit his cheeks tightly.

He wanted to speak, but his throat was blocked by saliva, so he spoke in a hoarse voice: "Smelly boy, you didn't embarrass your father!"

"Old Sun, please accept my condolences." Pan Changfeng stood at the end of the bed and comforted him.

Secretary An also looked solemn: "Director Sun, don't worry, we will definitely bring the murderer who killed your son to justice..."

Sun Kang didn't listen. He covered his son's face with a white cloth and lifted his hands that were hanging by the bed.

At this time, Luo Rui turned around and glared at Fang Yonghui fiercely: "What's going on?"

Fang Yonghui gritted his teeth, spoke with red eyes, and explained the whole story in detail.

"...Director Luo, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have let him chase after him alone. It's my fault. If I were there, this group of people would definitely not dare to do it..."

Luo Rui did not reply, but Sun Kang stared at him closely: "Did my son say anything before... before he died?"

Fang Yonghui nodded quickly: "He left a message for you. He said he is proud of you."

"Really?" Sun Kang smiled and said, "Stinky boy..."

Afterwards, the entire inpatient building was blocked off and a cordon was set up, and Sun Zhihao's body was carried away by the forensic doctor.

The police began to check the inpatient department and did not let anyone go.

The survey personnel are also closely retrieving surveillance footage.

In addition to the attack on Sun Zhihao, Qiao Xue also encountered two murderers, one of whom killed his companion and fled.

The body of the short murderer remained in the elevator. The elevator was out of service and a cordon was set up at the door.

When Luo Rui and his team arrived, the forensic doctor had not yet entered the scene.

After Qiao Xue bandaged her wound, she lay on the hospital bed and recounted in detail what happened to the murderer.

Luo Rui took a look at her wound and saw that it was not a serious injury. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You have worked hard."

Qiao Xue shook her head with tears in her eyes: "I'm sorry, Director Luo, I don't have the ability to catch him..."

"It's okay." Luo Rui comforted, "He can't run away."

Lin Chen cried until her eyes turned red, and asked, "Director Luo, what should we do now?"

"Go to sleep." Luo Rui smiled and said, "Let's all go have a good sleep."

Fang Yonghui swallowed his saliva and said, "Luo Da, if the murderer is not caught, I will not be able to sleep."

"What do you want?"

Without warning, Luo Rui raised his voice and glared at him fiercely. "I'm telling you, whether you can sleep or not, go get some sleep! We can talk about the case after you wake up!"

Fang Yonghui was startled, clenched his fists, lowered his head, and dared not answer.

Luo Rui glanced at Cai Xiaojing and said, "Captain Cai, contact the provincial department and tell Captain Zhu what happened in detail. After that, everyone should go back to sleep."

Zhang Yong immediately asked, "Who is guarding Deng Mowei in the hospital?"

"Leave it to the Qingyang Municipal Bureau!" Luo Rui replied. Before leaving, he turned his head and glanced at everyone: "From now on, no one in our attack team is allowed to stay up late. We must go to work and leave work normally. Even if we encounter an urgent case, even if the king of heaven comes, we must get enough rest. If I see anyone who looks sleepy again, I will tell him to go back to where he came from. I don't welcome such people!"

Seeing him leave, the ward fell into silence.

Fang Yonghui sat in the chair in a daze, his eyes dull.

Lin Chen sat on Qiao Xue's hospital bed with his head lowered.

Chu Yang and Zhang Yong stood aside and looked at each other, but neither spoke.

After Cai Xiaojing contacted the provincial department, she walked in and saw that they were still like this. She said, "Everyone, stop standing there and go back to rest."

Fang Yonghui raised his eyes to look at her: "Captain Cai, I..."

Cai Xiaojing sighed: "Okay, Yonghui, Director Luo didn't blame you, he blamed himself."

Lin Chen sniffed: "What responsibility can Luo Chu have?"

Cai Xiaojing replied: "Since everyone came to Qingyang City Bureau the day before yesterday, they have been working hard for a whole day and night. If Sun Zhihao had rested well, he would not have been so easily...

Don't be so depressed, go back and have a rest."

Chu Yang said shyly, "Captain Cai, Officer Qiao's injury, can you let me stay here?"

Cai Xiaojing nodded and left with Fang Yonghui, Lin Chen and Zhang Yong.

After they left, the ward fell silent for a moment.

Chu Yang sat in the chair, looking towards the door, and didn't speak for a long time.

Qiao Xue lay on the hospital bed and looked at his profile.

"Chu Yang..."

"Hmm?" Chu Yang turned around and smiled.

"Have you ever been in danger?"

Chu Yang thought about it and shook his head: "The most dangerous time was probably when I and the team leader arrested those drug dealers. I was lucky and didn't have face-to-face contact with the criminals.

When we were in the local area, we were still a member of the criminal investigation team. The team leader encountered the most dangers, but he was too strong and the criminals could not defeat him, so everyone called him Luo Yanwang.

Secondly, Team Leader Cai encountered two dangers. If the team leader hadn’t acted quickly enough, she would have almost…

There was also Qi Lei, who was shot to death by a group of thugs. The team leader sent money to his family every month.

"I've encountered this three times." Qiao Xue sighed: "I thought I wasn't afraid of death, but today in the elevator, when I faced the criminals, I was scared..."

Chu Yang nodded: "Everyone would be afraid."

Qiao Xue pursed her lips and looked up at him: "When we have time, let's go to the movies?"

Chu Yang's pupils shrank and his heart suddenly stopped beating.

"Let's watch a comedy, okay?" Qiao Xue smiled.

Chu Yang nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, his palms sweating: "Okay...Okay, we'll watch whatever you like."

"Yeah." Qiao Xue blushed and nodded. To ease the embarrassment, she said, "Go get me some hot water. I'm thirsty..."

"Okay." Chu Yang stood up, not daring to look at her, picked up the kettle from under the cabinet and opened the door.

Two policemen sent by the Municipal Bureau stood outside the door. Chu Yang nodded to them and walked to the end of the corridor.

The corridors were filled with uniformed police officers conducting searches, and hospitalized patients were confined to their wards and not allowed to come out.

When Chu Yang passed by the elevator, he saw that the body in the car had been taken away and the inside of the elevator was covered in blood.

He sighed slightly and walked to the water tank at the end of the corridor.

Here, leaning against the window, the red sun rises slowly in the sky.

Chu Yang was about to fetch some water when he heard a noise coming from behind the water tank near the window.

His expression froze, and he leaned over to look.

I saw Sun Kang standing by the window, his hands propped up on the window sill, his back bent, and he was weeping silently...
