1995, Starting as a Criminal Investigation Expert

During the daytime, most people are at work or farming, so there aren't many people in the village.

Ning Hualin huddled in the corner, staring intently at the back door of Zheng Cheng's house, his hands sweating with nervousness.

The suspect is armed.

Just then, the back door suddenly opened.

Ning Hualin, like a cat with its fur standing on end, instantly pressed himself against the wall and cautiously peeked out.

The woman I had seen before reappeared.

She was carrying a rather large, black handbag. After leaving the house, she looked around warily, or rather nervously.

Ning Hualin pressed himself against the wall, his heart pounding, but he didn't act rashly.

His target is Zheng Cheng.

However, I was still worried that there might be some evidence in the bag that the woman might want to destroy.

He stared intently at the back door, watching the woman carrying a bag, looking around, and walking down a side path.

Before they had taken two steps, without any warning, two crisp gunshots rang out in quick succession, one after the other.

"what!"

The woman screamed and ran away with her bag.

The moment the gunshot rang out, Ning Hualin instinctively ducked his head and pressed himself against the wall, thinking that Zheng Cheng was hiding in the shadows and secretly shooting at him.

He gripped the pistol, his heart pounding in his chest.

The gunshots stopped. Ning Hualin gritted his teeth and mustered his courage to peek out.

I didn't see anyone.

The woman ran away in fright after hearing the gunshot.

The back door was still open.

Ning Hualin dared not move, only peeking out half an eye, staring intently at the back door.

There has been no movement.

Then, just a dozen seconds after the gunshot, a figure came running quickly from diagonally in front of him.

"who!"

Ning Hualin jolted awake, instinctively turning his gun around and shouting in a low voice.

It was Sun Lifei, gripping his gun, who strode over quickly. He ducked behind a large tree, peering around nervously, panting heavily, and anxiously asked where everyone was.

"No, I didn't see it," Ning Hualin said hurriedly.

Sun Lifei was taken aback and hurriedly asked who fired the shot.

After being shot twice, he assumed Zheng Cheng had escaped through the back door and was engaged in a gunfight with Ning Hualin, so he rushed over to provide support.

Ning Hualin quickly shook his head, saying that he did not fire the shot.

"broken!"

Sun Lifei suddenly realized what was happening and turned to run towards the main entrance.

A diversionary tactic!

Zheng Cheng must have calculated it correctly. Apart from Tan Guoxiong, the technician, there were only two of them, and they would definitely guard the goal from the front and the back.

So he fired two shots at the back door to create the illusion of a gunfight.

Those at the front gate will definitely run to the back gate to provide support.

At that moment, there was no one at the front door, which gave him the perfect opportunity to escape.

Sun Lifei's heart pounded wildly.

The main gate leads to the road outside, and there's a fear that Zheng Cheng might run out and bump into Tan Guoxiong again.

Not to mention that Tan Guoxiong is just a technical police officer, and he is new to the job with little experience. He probably hasn't even fired a gun much. If something really happens, he will regret it for the rest of his life.

Sun Lifeng ran incredibly fast.

People on either side had already been alerted and went out to check the situation.

Sure enough, the main gate, which was originally tightly closed, is now open.

"Oh shit!"

Sun Lifei cursed and ran headlong into the road.

I'm afraid of hearing gunshots again.

He ran straight to the road. On the other side of the road, next to the tricycle, Tan Guoxiong was guarding. He was startled when he saw Sun Lifei rush out and instinctively pointed his gun at them.

"Old Sun, did they fire the gun?"

Tan Guoxiong asked anxiously, as he vaguely heard what sounded like gunshots.

Ning Hualin followed, panting heavily as he ran.

Sun Lifei looked around and hurriedly asked, "Didn't you see Zheng Cheng run out?"

Tan Guoxiong shook his head.

He's been keeping watch here; if Zheng Cheng comes out, he'll definitely see him.

"Grass!"

Sun Lifei stamped his foot in frustration and hurriedly called Ning Hualin to run back.

Something feels off. Where did this person go?

The two of them hurriedly ran back.

Coming from the road, the straight-line distance to Zheng Cheng's house is probably only fifty meters.

The houses were scattered around the area, with various narrow paths, so Zheng Cheng could have taken the opportunity to escape through one of these paths.

He grabbed a gun and rushed into Zheng Cheng's house.

Sure enough, no one was there.

Ning Hualin's expression was not good. Despite having guards in front and behind him, the other party still managed to escape.

"Old Sun, you go east, I'll go west, let's chase them."

He took off running and rushed outside.

Sun Lifei followed, but stopped abruptly just as he reached the door.

Ning Hualin also suddenly turned his head.

He faintly heard gunshots again, several more. Although they were muffled and probably far away, he was familiar with the sound of gunfire and could confirm that it was gunfire.

The key point is that it came from the direction of the back door.

"Damn it, what's going on!" Ning Hualin was completely confused. Who fired the shot this time?

Without saying a word, Sun Lifei turned around and ran out the back door.

After a slight hesitation, he plunged into one of the narrow paths.

The two ran for several dozen meters and soon saw a fork in the road ahead, where people were peeking around.

When Sun Lifei rushed out and saw what was happening, his heart clenched painfully.

Just a few meters away, a person was lying on the ground, with blood spreading rapidly beneath him.

The person wasn't quite dead yet; their eyes were wide open and their body was twitching.

But it was the woman beside Zheng Cheng.

"Oh shit!"

Ning Hualin cursed and scratched his head anxiously, asking the people next to him if they had seen the murderer.

"It looks like they went that way." Someone pointed north.

Sun Lifei cursed under his breath and took off after him.

But this area is full of old houses, and the narrow roads lead in all directions. Before long, they were already at a loss as to where to go next.

……

Today, Li Shu went with Lin Wanping to Qingming Bridge, which is only a few kilometers away from here.

When they arrived at the scene, colleagues were already on duty at the intersection, checking passing vehicles.

The car stopped, and Li Shu immediately spotted Tan Guoxiong by the roadside. He quickly jumped out of the car and went to greet him.

Are you alright?

Li Shu pulled Tan Guoxiong around, looking him up and down.

The caller said they had matched the suspect and found him, but the suspect escaped and even fired a shot, resulting in a death.

Since it wasn't clear who had died, Li Shu assumed that Tan Guoxiong and the others had been injured, and his heart pounded the whole way.

"I'm fine."

Tan Guoxiong hurriedly waved his hand, then said with a frustrated expression, "Li Shu, that person got away, and we haven't caught him yet."

He looked frustrated, regretting that he hadn't been able to help.

Li Shudao said, "Alright, if you run away, just catch you again. As long as nothing bad happens to you, that's fine."

Xu Qiang had already arrived not far away.

Ning Hualin called the Municipal Public Security Bureau immediately, so they arrived even faster.

"Chief Xu, it's all my fault!" Sun Lifei's eyes reddened with resentment.

Not only did they let Zheng Cheng escape, they also made him kill someone.

Looking back on the whole process, he realized that he had been completely fooled by Zheng Cheng and had been completely played.

"Alright, it's none of your business."

Xu Qiang patted him on the shoulder and quickly called to Xiao Rui to arrange the blockade and search plan.

From the time he received the call to the time he drove over with his men, it took about fifteen minutes.

Tian Yu arrived even faster, in less than ten minutes.

In other words, after Zheng Cheng devised his escape plan and killed his female lover, he probably only had a few minutes to escape.

However, there is still a time lag before everyone arrives, understands the situation, and arranges a lockdown.

Therefore, Xu Qiang estimated that once the people dispersed and the initial blockade was established, Zheng Cheng should have had ten to twenty minutes to escape.

There are eyewitnesses who saw Zheng Cheng walking.

There were no reports of anyone having their bicycle or motorcycle stolen.

In that time, Zheng Cheng, who was walking, shouldn't have been able to run very far.

Xu Qiang believed that as long as the blockade was expanded, they could contain the people.

On the other side, Li Shu pulled Tan Guoxiong aside and asked him about the whole process.

"Goodness, they've even started using the Thirty-Six Stratagems."

Li Shu was startled.

Judging from the description, Zheng Cheng orchestrated a feint, a mix of truth and deception.

Moreover, he has a particularly deep mind.

He fired two shots first, drawing the people at the front door to the back door.

However, he did not take the opportunity to leave through the front door, but instead stayed at the back door.

He must have calculated it correctly; once the people from the front and back gates met, they would immediately guess his scheme to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

Instinctively, they would run towards the front door, since that's where the road is and the best evacuation route.

As a result, they fell into his trap again.

He still escaped through the back door, and took the opportunity to kill his female lover to prevent future trouble.

This guy's IQ is definitely not low.

Colleagues providing support kept arriving, and even the armed police came.

In conjunction with the City Games, in accordance with the security plan, mobile patrols by armed police have been deployed in key areas throughout the city.

Shortly after, Han Jianjun arrived with a police dog.
