Chapter 477 Chase
Cross street.

Lin Chen looked at the lamb skewers sizzling on the stove and couldn't help swallowing.

The boss, wearing dirty work gloves, turned over a large bunch of lamb skewers and sprinkled some cumin powder.

He placed the mutton skewers on the stove and pressed them down to squeeze out the excess fat and water.

Then, the boss put a handful of lamb skewers into a paper bag. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and handed it to Lin Chen who was looking at him eagerly.

"Okay, here you go."

"How much?" Lin Chen took out his wallet and took out a fifty-yuan bill.

"Thirty-eight," the boss replied.

Lin Chen handed over the money and impatiently took out a skewer of meat. He used his teeth to tear off the fingernail-sized pieces of meat from the bamboo sticks.

"So hot..."

Lin Chen's mouth was watering. After chewing for a few times, her eyes lit up: "It's delicious. Boss, your cooking skills are great."

The boss took out some change from his waist bag and handed it to her, smiling: "Welcome to come again next time."

"I may not have the chance to come here next time."

Lin Chen put the change into his pocket and walked to Luo Rui: "Here, lamb skewers."

Luo Rui was holding a paper bowl in his hand, which contained the newly bought wolftooth potatoes, sprinkled with chopped watercress.

"Is the zheergen delicious?" Lin Chen picked up the bamboo skewer in his bowl, stuck a piece of potato in it, and put it into his mouth.

"Ugh... This smells so bad." Lin Chen quickly spit out the potato and curled his lips.

Luo Rui glanced at her: "Are you polite?"

"It tastes terrible. I don't understand why anyone would like to eat this."

Luo Rui ignored her and went to greet Li Pinghai who was walking towards him.

"Mr. Luo." Li Pinghai was holding a walkie-talkie in his hand, with several people following him.

Luo Rui nodded: "Everyone hasn't had dinner yet, right? Ask people to take turns to eat something. As long as the main traffic routes are guarded, Liang Yi can't escape."

Li Pinghai looked at the mutton skewers in Lin Chen's hand, swallowed his saliva, and smiled: "It's okay, we are used to it. Let's search for a while and let them take turns to rest."

Seeing the other party looking at the mutton skewers in his hand, Lin Chen handed them over distressedly: "Captain Li, how about you try some too?"

Li Pinghai chuckled: "Then I won't be polite."

He reached out and took two skewers, bit them with his teeth, and rolled the whole skewer of mutton into his mouth.

Lin Chen looked at his subordinates behind him: "What about you guys, do you want to eat?"

"Thank you, Officer Lin."

"Thank you."

Several people gathered around, and after a moment, the bag in Lin Chen's hand was empty.

Lin Chen was like a fat kid whose candy was taken away from him, with a dull expression and unable to cry.

She turned silently and looked at the boss behind the stove.

The boss chuckled and said, "Look, this opportunity comes so quickly. Do you want me to grill a few more skewers for you?"

"Another fifty skewers!" Lin Chen gritted his teeth and made a huge investment.

The boss was surprised: "Can you eat so much?"

"What else?" Lin Chen curled his lips.

Li Pinghai felt a little embarrassed when he heard this. He took out his wallet and paid first: "Grill some more eggplants and corns that you can hold in your hands and eat."

"Okay!" The boss smiled and quickly called his wife who was stringing food on skewers.

Soon, the long and narrow oven was filled with skewers of meat and the aroma was fragrant.

Lin Chen watched the skewers of meat turn golden.

The boss was very observant and knew that the girl was very hungry, so he handed her two skewers of lamb that he had just grilled.

At this moment, a shout suddenly came from the walkie-talkie in Li Pinghai's hand.

"No. 105 Wutong Lane, two criminals found, armed with guns, resisting arrest!"

"The criminal was driving a Jialing motorcycle without a license plate and carrying two packages!"

"Send someone here quickly!"

"quick!"

Upon hearing this, Li Pinghai was shocked and stunned for several seconds.

Two criminals? With guns? What's going on?
Before he could react, Luo Rui had already run forward.

Li Pinghai and his men hurriedly caught up, feeling very nervous.

Luo Rui snatched the intercom from his hand and ordered the police officers who were searching around: "Add more personnel to block all the main roads outside Wutong Lane!

Police officers who are not wearing bulletproof vests and are not holding weapons should not rush to block the suspects. If they see suspects, they should report their location immediately and not fight them head-on.

Luo Rui turned to look at Li Pinghai who was running side by side with him and said, "Notify the SWAT team and ask them to come over for support."

"Okay!" Li Pinghai swallowed his saliva, took out his cell phone, and made a call while running.

At this time, Lin Chen hurriedly shouted to the barbecue owner: "I'll come back later!"

The boss was stunned. He also heard the voice on the intercom just now.

He hurriedly shouted to his wife who was serving customers: "Something bad has happened, let's close the stall!"

A moment later, a group of people ran down the slope.

About a dozen police officers gathered in front of the double iron doors.

"What's going on?" Luo Rui looked at the old policeman leaning against the wall.

The old policeman panted and pointed to the open yard: “A few minutes ago, when we were checking, we found a suspicious person in here.

We were about to report it, but they tried to escape on their motorcycles. We were about to stop them, but one of them pulled out a gun.”

Luo Rui asked: "Is anyone injured?"

The old policeman shook his head: "It was a close call."

"How tall are these two men?"

"I didn't see it very clearly."

Li Pinghai immediately interrupted, "Could it be the group of people who broke into the funeral home and destroyed the corpses?"

Luo Rui didn't say anything. Just as he was about to walk into the yard, a burst of noise came from the intercom.

Then, three or four criminal police officers shouted on the intercom: "No. 86 Wutong Lane, there was an exchange of fire, someone was injured, call an ambulance quickly."

"We stopped two criminals, and they abandoned the car and fled in different places."

Immediately afterwards, the sound of "bang, bang..." gunfire came from the walkie-talkie.

Luo Rui drew the pistol from his waist and ran down the slope.

Soon, they ran to No. 86. Five or six flashlights were shining on the houses on both sides. One of the detectives, wearing a black jacket, ran very quickly to the alley opposite.

Luo Rui had left Lin Chen and the others behind, and he followed the criminal police into the alley.

The criminal police held a gun in one hand and a flashlight in the other, shining it forward.

I found a dead end ahead, with a three-meter-high wall blocking the way.

A figure has climbed up the wall.

The detective paused and raised his gun.

"Stop, don't move!"

Before he finished speaking...

"boom!"

The sound of gunfire behind him startled him. He turned around and saw that Luo Rui had already passed him and ran under the wall in three or two steps.

He pushed one foot on the left wall and climbed up with both hands.

After he jumped onto the top of the wall, he jumped down without hesitation.

Behind the wall is an old leisure park, and in the front is a basketball court.

A figure carrying a sack of burlap was running under the basketball board.

This person was Lao Er. As he ran, he looked back and saw someone chasing him. He cursed, "Fuck you!"

He raised his hand and fired blindly.

"boom!"

"Den!"

Sparks flashed from the muzzle of the gun, and the bullet hit the upright pole under the backboard, making a crisp sound.

Luo Rui happened to run under the backboard. If he had been a step slower, the shrapnel would have penetrated his right brain.

The second brother ran behind the fitness equipment in the park. He looked back again and saw that the person chasing him was only twenty meters away from him.

Knowing he couldn't escape, he simply turned around, raised his gun and started shooting.

"Bang, bang!"

"Come on, let's see whether you kill me or I kill you! Damn it!"

He pulled the trigger three times in a row, but the man opposite him appeared on his left side, only about ten meters away.

Just as he was about to move the gun over, he saw a spark flash from the other party's gun muzzle.

"boom!"

The bullet whizzed in and hit his shoulder where he was holding the gun.

"Your mother..."

"boom!"

Another bullet came and hit his wrist, and the gun in his hand fell to the ground.

"I'll fuck you to death!"

The second brother knelt on the ground and tried to pick up the gun.

"boom!"

"boom!"

Two gunshots rang out at the same time, and Luo Rui quickly hid beside the space walker.

He fired his gun and hit the ground where the gun had fallen.

But a bullet came from the three o'clock direction and hit the gangster directly in the temple.

The second brother fell to the ground all of a sudden, his body twitching continuously.

Luo Rui quickly looked towards the three o'clock direction and saw a figure standing on the steps, jumping down.

There was a long row of green plants under the steps. The man had just stepped down and was about to run towards the double iron gates of the park on the right.

On the slope behind him, a halo of more than a dozen flashlights lit up.

Seven or eight criminal police officers rushed down quickly.

As the youngest one ran towards the iron gate, Luo Rui raised his hand and shot him, but missed.

The youngest one had already rushed to the park entrance, but then he paused and immediately retreated.

Flashlights were lit outside the double iron doors, and Li Pinghai led his men to block the gate.

Seeing that he was cornered, the youngest one threw away the woven bag slung across his shoulder, took two steps forward, held the gun with one hand, and pulled the trigger.

"Damn it, if we're going to die, let's die together! I'm not afraid of you guys!"

"Bang, bang..."

Luo Rui saw someone on the slope firing back, and he shouted, "Catch him alive!"

Hearing his voice, the youngest brother moved the gun towards him and continued to pull the trigger.

Luo Rui lay on the ground and tried to hit his legs.

Before he could fire his gun, he saw the man fall face first to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, on the slope, at the park entrance, two groups of people quickly surrounded them.

Dozens of flashlights were waving around, and then all the lights gathered together and shone on the fallen gangster.

Luo Rui got up, holding the gun in his hand, and walked forward. The crowd automatically parted, and he saw the man fell forward, with blood all over his neck.

"Who the hell fired the gun?" Luo Rui glanced at everyone.

Li Pinghai hurriedly said: "He committed suicide."

Luo Rui took a look at the pistol that fell on the ground. He squatted down, turned the gangster's body over, and saw that there was a bloody hole in the man's chin and his nose was broken.

The bullet must have entered through the lower jaw and ripped off the entire nasal cavity.

Luo Rui touched the criminal's neck, looked up and said to Li Pinghai: "Call an ambulance quickly, he is not dead yet!"

"You won't die in this way?"

Li Pinghai was shocked and quickly called two policemen to carry the criminal out and prepare to send him to the hospital.

Luo Rui shouted, "Wait a moment, search him!"

A moment later, a criminal policeman took out a wallet and a mobile phone from the criminal's trouser pocket.

There was only some change in the wallet, no ID card, and the phone was an old-fashioned one with a screen that couldn't be turned on, so a technical detective officer had to unlock it.

The second gangster was shot in the temple and was dead.

The man didn't even have a cell phone in his pocket except for some cash.

Li Pinghai asked someone to bring the packages carried by the two criminals and put them on the ground.

One criminal police officer squatted down and opened the woven bag, while another criminal police officer untied the sackcloth bag and poured out the contents.

"Damn, he was reluctant to put down his bag until he died. It turned out that it was full of money!" Li Pinghai was quite surprised: "Could this be the money in the mattress?"

Luo Rui nodded: "Let's count."

The police opened the bag and found that the ten thousand yuan and one hundred yuan bills were tied together with rubber bands.

After counting for a while, several policemen looked up and said, "There are 203 bundles in total, estimated to be around two million."

"The amount is wrong, more than half is missing!" Luo Rui looked at Li Pinghai and said, "Let's go to the yard we were in. These two criminals are here to look for the money. Liang Yi is still missing and may have been persecuted. We have to find him quickly."

"Row!"

Just as a few people were about to leave, the cell phone that Luo Rui had earlier given to the criminal police suddenly rang.

Luo Rui was stunned, squinted his eyes slightly, and quickly took the phone.

He said to the police officer next to him: "Write down the number and send it to the technical investigation. Ask them to check this number and see where the call is from."

Li Pinghai asked, "Do you want to answer it?"

Luo Rui shook his head: "Liang Yi may be in the hands of the other party. We answered the call. If the other party knew that his two men failed, Liang Yi would be in danger."

The phone rang for a minute and then hung up.

after an hour.

The original owner of the house that Liang Yi rented, who was also the landlord, was called over by the police.

This was a middle-aged woman in her fifties. When she saw the yard full of policemen, she trembled with fear.

Lin Chen asked: "Auntie, don't be nervous, it's none of your business. Let me ask you, who did you rent the house to?"

"A young man from out of town?"

"What does he look like?"

"Not very tall, but pretty thin."

"Do you have a copy of his ID?"

The aunt shook her head: "I don't want it."

Lin Chen took out Liang Yi's photo and handed it to her: "Is it him?"

"Yes, it's him!" The aunt nodded quickly.

"What date did you rent it to him?"

"What date was it?" The aunt tilted her head: "It seems to be a week ago."

"Does he live alone? Or with two people?"

"He's the only one."

“How many suitcases did you bring?”

The aunt shook her head: "He didn't bring a suitcase. He came empty-handed."

There were several tables under the eaves of the yard, where technical detectives called in from the Municipal Bureau were operating computers.

After a while, he shouted to Luo Rui, who was checking the broken flower pots on the ground, "Boss Luo, the phone is on."

Luo Rui stood up, and the other party immediately said: "The number in this phone is a black card, and the number that called in an hour ago was also a black card.

And tonight, the other party called this phone three times.

The first time was at 5:30 p.m. and the second time was at 7:10 p.m..”

"Seven twenty?" Chu Yang pondered, "At this time, we are just checking the residents around here."

Luo Rui asked: "What about before this?"

"Except for today's call records, all previous calls on this phone have been deleted, and there is not a single number stored in the address book."

Previously, the criminal police who were involved in the arrest, upon hearing this, hurriedly walked away, fearing to face Luo Yanwang's wrath.

If the criminals could speak, they wouldn't be so passive now.

The forensic doctors and on-site investigators were busy in the park, taking statements from the criminal police who participated in the arrest and inspecting the scene.

Everyone is already aware of the entire pursuit process.

The taller gangster was hit by two bullets, both of which were fired by Luo Yanwang.

The wounds were on the criminal's shoulder and thigh.

In order to silence him, the shorter gangster shot his companion in the temple.

Afterwards, facing the criminal police's pursuit, the other party fired back.

Until there was only one bullet left in the gun chamber, the man chose to end his life.

Although the person was not dead, he was unable to explain the case.

If the criminal police's pursuit had not been so urgent at that time, the remaining criminal would not have been forced into such a desperate situation.

At this time, Luo Rui's face turned pale and he said nothing.

Li Pinghai looked at his face and whispered, "Boss Luo, the video team is retrieving the surveillance footage from Wutong Lane. Maybe they can find some useful clues."

Luo Rui didn't say anything. After thinking for a while, he picked up the criminal's old-fashioned mobile phone from the table and said thoughtfully: "The other party should call again. Let's think about how we should deal with it?"

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

Shangpo Town, a food stall in the town center.

Guo Lexuan lifted the glass curtain and let Jin Jiahui in before she followed her in.

"Boss lady, give me a chicken pot and two bowls of rice."

"Okay, chicken hotpot for two. Do you like spicy food?"

"Slightly spicy." Guo Lexuan sat down in the chair tiredly: "By the way, add more crystal powder."

"Okay." The proprietress ran into the kitchen and asked the chef to start cooking.

It was past mealtime and there were not many diners in the food stall, only the two of them.

Jin Jiahui picked up the teapot on the table and poured water into the teacup in front of Guo Lexuan's table.

"Xiaoxuan, thank you for your hard work. Actually, you don't have to accompany me. I can do it alone."

Guo Lexuan sighed: "Can you do it? If I weren't here, you wouldn't be able to finish your work tomorrow."

Jin Jiahui smiled and said, "Do you think I'm stupid? I don't know how to ask the city bureau for help?"

Guo Lexuan took a sip of tea and said, "Look at the people in the Municipal Bureau. Who will care about you? Once Mr. Luo leaves, you will have a hard time."

Jin Jiahui said nothing. She took out a map from her pocket and began to mark the locations where samples had been extracted.

Soon, the chicken pot was served, and the two of them ate it with rice.

Guo Lexuan said as she ate, "Should we rush back to the city or just find a hotel to stay in town?"

Jin Jiahui swallowed a mouthful of rice and said, "Let's find a hotel. We have to continue working at dawn, otherwise, we won't be able to finish it tomorrow. Besides, it will take a long time to take the samples to the physical evidence center for testing."

Guo Lexuan took the map from her desk and asked as she flipped through it, "Where else have we not taken samples from?"

"I marked it. The red circle is where it is."

"Ah, there are still thirteen places?" Guo Lexuan complained: "Senior Sister, aren't your targets too dense? It's a waste of time to extract every hundred meters."

Jin Jiahui replied: "The hydrological conditions in each section of the river are different. Without a detailed examination, it is impossible to determine where the three victims fell into the water."

Guo Lexuan sighed: "Can the Evidence Center give you a discount? Don't pay for it yourself again."

She pointed at the nearest red circle with the end of her chopsticks: "Senior sister, where is this?"

Jin Jiahui took a look and said: "In the old fishing village of Shangpo Town, several decades ago, the villagers of this village made a living by the Longchuan River. Later, because the Longchuan River was too polluted and this village was located upstream, all the domestic garbage was dumped into the river.

In 97, the village was flooded by a flood. Due to these factors, the villagers moved to the town. "

"Then let's go here tomorrow and extract the samples from below. It will be faster."

"Okay." Jin Jiahui responded, "Hurry up and eat, then find a hotel and rest early."

"Hmm." Guo Lexuan seemed to have thought of something, she raised her head and said, "Then we have to get two rooms. I don't want to live in the same room with you."

Jin Jiahui smiled bitterly and said, "The Municipal Bureau may not reimburse us. Can we get a double room and sleep separately?"

"That's fine." Guo Lexuan smiled.

At this time, the glass curtain at the door was lifted, and a middle-aged man wearing a fisherman's hat entered the room.

The lady boss behind the counter stood up and called out, "Old Yang, how was your harvest today?"

The middle-aged man raised the fish bucket in his hand and said, "Air Force."

"Not really?" The lady boss said with a smile, "You can't even catch any fish. Could it be that all the fish in Longchuan River have gone to the East China Sea?"

"No way, I'm just unlucky today."

"Okay, what do you want to eat today?"

"Still the same as before," replied Old Yang, as he placed the bucket and fishing gear he was carrying at the door.

As soon as he stood up, his eyes met Guo Lexuan's.

Guo Lexuan frowned, remembered who he was, and then smiled: "Uncle, we meet again."

Old Yang's face froze, and he replied, "What a coincidence. Hello."

After saying that, he walked inside, found a seat, and sat down facing the two women.

Guo Lexuan turned around and continued to chat with Jin Jiahui.

Soon, the chef from the kitchen brought out a bowl of noodles, placed it on Lao Yang's table, and handed him a head of garlic.

"How have you been these days?" the chef asked.

Old Yang pulled out his chopsticks and said vaguely, "It's still the same."

The chef sat down next to him and said, "Old Yang, I heard from the people in the town that the city is planning to develop our old fishing village and create a tourist attraction. It will also make Shangpo Town prosperous and reap some benefits. Is this true?"

"I don't know." Lao Yang slurped his noodles and didn't want to pay attention to him.

But the woman who had greeted him earlier was looking over at this moment.

“Are you from the old fishing village?”

Lao Yang avoided his gaze, but the chef replied: "Our hometown is right there. The old fishing village has been abandoned for a long time."

Guo Lexuan nodded and turned back.

At this moment, Lao Yang felt the cell phone in his trouser pocket vibrate twice.

He quickly put down his chopsticks and stood up: "I'm going to the bathroom."

He walked towards the kitchen and took out his cell phone.

A text message appeared in front of him: [Fishing Village, come quickly! ]

Looking at the number from which the text message came, his hands trembled slightly...
