Detective: From the Police Academy

Chapter 261 Waiting for the rabbit
Xingyuan Building, ten o'clock in the evening.

Luo Rui took the elevator and just as he reached the basement on the negative first floor, the reconnaissance car drove up to his feet.

"Team leader!"

Su Mingyuan shouted, holding the steering wheel with both hands and stepping on the accelerator.

Chu Yang, who was sitting in the back seat, opened the car door and Luo Rui immediately jumped in.

"Go to the hospital!"

"I see!"

Su Mingyuan agreed, turned the car around and drove towards the exit.

"Drive faster!" Luo Rui urged.

Chu Yang pursed his lips and said, "Team Leader, I just contacted Yonghui. Team Leader Cai was sent to the emergency room. Don't worry, she should be fine!"

"I hope so."

Luo Rui leaned against the back of the chair and closed his eyes slightly, his heart hanging in the air.

If anything happened to Cai Xiaojing, he would never be able to forgive himself for the rest of his life.

More than two years ago, when I was still a high school student, I was able to apply to the police academy and become a policeman by following Cai Xiaojing's advice.

But now, time is like running water, once it passes, it can never come back.

Life is a process towards death, but people call this life.

Having been a police officer for so long, Luo Rui has faced the danger of death many times, just like more than an hour ago, if Mina had hit him in the head, he would definitely have to see Marx on the spot.

This is the police, and this is the danger the police have to face.

Are you afraid of death? Luo Rui asked himself.

He felt that he was not afraid because there were people he was familiar with in the world and in hell.

Qianjiang City, First People's Hospital.

In the corridor of the emergency room, Fang Yonghui and Yang Bo stood outside the door, pacing back and forth anxiously.

After seeing Luo Rui, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

"Master Luo, Captain Cai has been sent in for half an hour, and the doctor hasn't come out yet."

Luo Rui nodded: "Everyone is tired, you go and rest, I'll be here to guard it."

Everyone shook their heads.

Fang Yonghui leaned against the wall, looked at the people present, and sighed deeply.

"Master Luo, we suffered too much loss while helping the anti-drug team investigate this case. First, Lao Qi died, Lao Tian was seriously injured, and now Captain Cai is also... we are the only ones left..."

"Stop talking!" Yang Bo pulled his sleeve. "If you can't stay idle, come with me to buy food."

Fang Yonghui knew he had said something wrong, so he slapped his mouth and said, "Luo Da, Yang Bo and I are going to buy some midnight snacks."

Luo Rui sat on the bench, leaning back, closing his eyes, with a look of worry on his face.

Chu Yang also immediately said: "Team Leader, I'm going to the car. Director Wei hasn't been notified yet."

"Go ahead." Luo Rui nodded slightly.

Su Mingyuan looked around and followed Chu Yang.

Time passed slowly, and Luo Rui was waiting anxiously.

Chu Yang and his three companions went and came back, buying coffee and instant noodles, but Luo Rui was not in the mood to eat.

The door of the emergency room was not opened until two in the morning.

Luo Rui hurried forward: "Doctor, how is the patient?"

The doctor took off his mask and replied, "Fortunately, she was brought to the hospital in time and we performed hemodialysis on her. We saved her life, but because the dose was a bit high, she will definitely suffer from neurasthenia, irreversible pathological changes in her nerve tissue, hallucinations and schizophrenia symptoms.

Other symptoms may also occur, which require follow-up observation.”

Luo Rui's heart sank to the bottom.

"Can I see her now?"

The doctor shook his head. "The patient is still in intensive care. Besides, we are not sure when she will wake up. It is best not to disturb her. In addition, the two people who brought the patient here just now..."

Fang Yonghui and Yang Bo hurried over.

"Well, please show me your ID again. I need to see your ID number. I have to call the police station and have them verify your identity.

Please understand that when it comes to drugs, our hospital has clear regulations and you must call the police.”

Luo Rui said: "It should be."

Several people took out their ID cards and handed them to the doctor.

The doctor flipped open the document, examined it carefully for a moment, and then handed it back to them.

Luo Rui made a request: "Doctor, can I take a look at the patient from a distance?"

"Okay, come with me."

There is an internal passage from the emergency room to the ICU, so Cai Xiaojing was sent there directly.

Through the glass window on the door, Luo Rui saw Cai Xiaojing wearing an oxygen mask. Her expression seemed a little more stable, but her face was pale.

The doctor looked at their credentials and knew that they were handling the case across regions and that they were all police officers.

It was obvious that something unexpected had happened during the fight between the policemen and the drug addict.

The doctor sighed and consoled her: "Don't worry, we will do our best to take good care of her. You are working for the people, and I would like to say thank you on my own behalf."

Luo Rui nodded. "You're welcome. This is what we should do."

He looked at Fang Yonghui and Yang Bo: "You two stay here, take turns 24 hours a day, and don't let anyone get close to this ward."

Fang Yonghui nodded quickly: "Don't worry, Luo Da, Yang Bo and I will stay with Captain Cai every step of the way."

"Chu Yang, Ming Yuan, let's go, we still have things to do."

……

Qianjiang City, Municipal Public Security Bureau, underground interrogation room of the Narcotics Squad.

Luo Rui walked into the observation room next door. When the panda saw him, he nodded slightly.

"How is the situation now?"

The panda pondered and said nothing.

Finally, she spoke up: "The suspect refused to cooperate. She didn't answer any questions."

Luo Rui understood that more than an hour had passed and there had been no progress in the interrogation.

This can be seen from Panda's expression. She was trying to save Liao Kang's face.

Luo Rui looked towards the interrogation room. Mina was sitting in the interrogation chair with her hands and feet tied up. She tilted her head slightly with her eyes closed, and her expression looked very calm.

Liao Kang and Bangzi led the interrogation. Liao Kang did not sit in the chair, but stood in front of Mina.

He put his hands on his hips and said angrily: "Where is your hideout? Where is the snakehead? I tell you, don't think we can't find it out if you don't tell us..."

Mina remained unmoved, a smile curling up her lips.

Luo Rui looked at Panda: "Do you have any detailed information about this woman?"

"Yes!" Panda picked up a document from the table and handed it to Luo Rui.

“This is what we just found out.”

Name: Mina

Age: 28 years old

Occupation: None
Nationality: Chinese

Home address: No. 221, Fuli Road, Qianjiang City.

His father is Chinese and his mother is a Greek immigrant to Malaysia.

She lived abroad when she was a child, and returned to China with her father when she was in middle school. She has stayed in China ever since. Because she is a mixed-race, tall and good-looking, she worked in modeling and acting for a short period of time after graduating from university.

After reading the information, Luo Rui asked, "Did you search her home?"

Panda nodded: "We have sent someone there."

"Call everyone back!"

"Ah?" The panda was stunned for a moment, at a loss as to what to do.

Luo Rui stared at her, his tone unquestionable: "Didn't you hear me? Call the people back quickly, don't act rashly!"

The panda was startled by his tone: "I'll inform my master first."

"Then please hurry up."

Panda did not use the microphone to notify, but walked directly out of the observation room and knocked on the door of the interrogation room next door.

Liao Kang was already furious, and when he heard the knock on the door, he could no longer control his temper.

"what's up?"

After he opened the door, he saw Panda seemed to be hesitant to speak.

At this time, Luo Rui gave a few instructions to Chu Yang behind him. Chu Yang nodded, and he walked to the camera, staring at the surveillance screen.

After that, Luo Rui walked out of the observation room.

Seeing him, Liao Kang's tone softened a little: "How is Captain Cai doing now?"

"The critical period has passed." Luo Rui held Mina's information in his hand and waved it.

His voice was so loud that Liao Kang wanted to close the door of the interrogation room, but Luo Rui winked at him.

"What I mean is, since we can't pry her open, let's just do it the old way and wait for her to come!"

Hearing this, Liao Kang turned sideways and glanced at the interrogation room out of the corner of his eye.

"Uh... can you tell me more specifically?"

"Mina planned all this, and I doubt the snakehead knew about it. As long as we stay at her house, we will definitely be able to track them down!
Call your people back. We will send someone to quietly stake out No. 211 Fuli Road. I believe that this time, we will be able to catch the snakehead gang in one fell swoop."

Liao Kang was a little hesitant. In the previous two operations, the police suffered heavy losses, and the criminal team suffered the most serious losses.

Qi Lei died, Tian Guanghan was seriously injured and hospitalized, and Cai Xiaojing even had a near-death experience.

Luo Rui’s current proposal is too risky.

Mina alone is so difficult to deal with, let alone the snakehead.

If we hadn't used a large number of police forces to confront them, it would have been difficult to catch this group of people with just the dozen or so people on our side.

Suddenly, he thought of something else: "Mina is an only child. There is no information about her brother's identity in the file. Do you think the snakehead will look for her?"

"We still don't know whether the snakehead is her brother or what the relationship between them is. But now that she won't speak, we have no other options. Liao Kang, why not give it another try?

Believe me, we will definitely catch them this time, and I won’t let them go!”

Liao Kang hesitated for a while, then nodded: "Okay! Luo Rui, for this operation, I will ask my colleagues in Qianjiang City to cooperate with you, and you will make all the arrangements. If... I say if there is any accident, I will bear all the consequences!"

Luo Rui stopped talking and looked into the interrogation room.

Mina's expression changed from calm and composed at the beginning to panic suddenly.

Chu Yang walked out of the observation room and whispered into Luo Rui's ear: "Team Leader, she should have heard your conversation just now. It is just as you said. The snakehead should not be aware of what she did."

Luo Rui nodded slightly. When he was about to look away, Mina's eyes turned from panic to fear.

Luo Rui didn't have any good impression of this woman.

Sending her to hell is the best choice.

……

One o'clock in the morning, No. 211, Fuli Road, Qianjiang City.

This place is located in the suburbs, with few busy roads and not many people living here.

The surrounding area is full of houses on neighboring streets, and the floors are generally not high.

Fuli Road is a slope to the left. At the end of the left side of the road is a river flowing horizontally, and on the high ground on the right side is a park.

The surroundings are very quiet and the greenery is well done. This place is very suitable for running and exercising.

The three-story building where Mina lived was in the middle of the road. At this time, the neighbors on both sides had been persuaded to leave by the police. Liao Kang persuaded them to move to a hotel for a few days, and all the expenses were reimbursed by the police.

The house in front of you is a Japanese-style building, which is very different from the surrounding houses.

Previously, Liao Kang had asked his neighbors and learned that the house was built by a designer hired by Mina's father and the land was purchased.

After her father's job was transferred to Imperial City, he only came back a few times a year, and Mina had been living in the house ever since.

Mina's mother has lived in Malaysia for many years and has her own farm in Malaysia.

Mina must have learned her shooting skills in Malaysia, and Luo Rui found her Malaysian gun license in her bedroom.

It can be imagined that this woman played with guns like a cowboy on her mother's farm, and her shooting skills were excellent.

Luo Rui and Liao Kang walked around the house and found a rifle in the bedroom and a freezer in the basement.

Needless to say, the freezer in the basement was used to freeze Zhang Xun's body.

He stayed in there for three full years.

No wonder the police couldn't find him.

There are still many doubts about Zhang Xun’s murder, but we will have to wait until the snakehead is caught to find out.

There are plainclothes police officers on both sides of Fuli Road, in parks, by the river, and in residential buildings.

Some of them stood in front of the windows, some hid in the cars, and some pretended to be fishermen at night by the river.

If Liao Kang still doubted the feasibility of this action before the action, he is now firm in his idea.

Mina's cell phone didn't have many contacts, but Chu Yang found a number that frequently called on the landline on the first floor.

Liao Kang asked the telecommunications company to find the source of this number.

Moreover, in addition to Mina and her father, there is another bedroom on the second floor that is often used by others.

There are also used toothbrushes and towels in the bathroom.

That is to say, Mina does not live alone, and occasionally someone else lives in this house.

Liao Kang also learned from his neighbors that a foreign man would come and stay for a few days every month.

The neighbors thought the man was Mina's boyfriend, but they didn't see how close the two were.

As for the foreigner’s age, the neighbor couldn’t tell, but foreigners generally look more mature.

As a result, the police officers lying in ambush around became alert.

The second floor.

Chu Yang was monitoring the landline phone. Luo Rui stood by the window and glanced outside.

Liao Kang came over and said, "You should take a rest first. It's so late, the snakehead won't come."

"Go to bed, I can't sleep."

Liao Kang handed him a cigarette and asked, "Are you still thinking about Captain Cai?"

Luo Rui didn't answer, but took the cigarette and lit it with a lighter.

Liao Kang himself did not smoke: "Luo Rui, you have to know that being a drug enforcement officer is very different from doing criminal investigation. We are all prepared to sacrifice at any time. Drug enforcement officers sacrifice themselves every year.

In addition, the families of drug enforcement officers are also in danger.

A few years ago, a couple went on a trip and were shot by a gangster on a motorcycle on the street. Both of them died on the spot. The couple were drug enforcement police. You never know when an accident will happen.

Zhang Xun is like this, Qi Lei is like this, and I am like this too...

You know, there are so many people who want me dead.

I get several calls every year..."

Hearing this, Luo Rui looked at Liao Kang: "What's the call?"

Liao Kang sighed: "This doesn't happen in your criminal investigation department, but our anti-drug detachment receives calls from the detention center every now and then. I caught those drug addicts, but I didn't sentence them to death. After serving a few years in prison, they didn't reform thoroughly and would think of taking revenge on us.

Every time I received a call from the detention center, I was nervous for a few days. Of course, I was not afraid for myself, but for my family. I was worried about my wife and daughter. If something happened to them, how would I hold on? "

Luo Rui nodded slightly. He deeply agreed with this. Otherwise, he would not have gathered his family together and spent money on security measures, asking Nong Shan and Nong Ying to protect his family.

It’s not that the world is unsafe, it’s just that the one in ten thousand chance is something no one can afford to take.

"I haven't slept well these past few days. I'm going to take a nap first."

Luo Rui nodded. After he finished smoking his cigarette, he put out the butt and threw it into the flowerpot on the balcony.

The lights were off in the entire house. Only the computer screens in front of Chu Yang and the two technicians emitted a faint glow.

Luo Rui sat in a recliner in front of the window. He pulled out his service pistol, checked the magazine, then held the gun and placed it on his abdomen.

Time passed slowly, Luo Rui closed his eyes and slowly fell into sleep.

“Dingle bell…Dingle bell…”

The shrill ringing of a telephone suddenly woke Luo Rui up.

He opened his eyes and saw Liao Kang sitting up from the sofa and Panda running in from the next room.

Chu Yang glanced at the number displayed on the landline and said, "It's the number that often calls. Should I answer it or not?"

Liao Kang looked at Luo Rui. This operation was commanded by the other party, so he was not in a position to speak.

But even if I answer the phone now, I'll be exposed immediately.

Luo Rui asked hurriedly: "Can you track the location of the other party's phone?"

Before Chu Yang could answer, a technical detective officer spoke first: "Okay, but it will take time."

"how long?"

"I'm not sure about that, but as long as you answer the phone, I can give you an approximate location. If you want more precision, the shortest call time will be two minutes."

Luo Rui glanced at the time. It was five o'clock in the morning and it was still dark. Suddenly a phone call came in at this time. What was the reason?
"Ding-ling-ling... Ding-ling-ling..." The phone continued to ring.

When the ringing was about to stop, Luo Rui quickly picked up the phone and pressed the hands-free button.

Everyone stared with bated breath, not daring to breathe.

A broken Chinese voice came from the phone: "Nina, pack up your things, we have to leave quickly."

Luo Rui looked at the computer screen next to him. A green dot was flashing on the electronic map, and the map was shrinking continuously.

"Nina, did you hear me? Take your passport and wait at home. I have sent Abin to pick you up. He will be here in five minutes."

"Nina?" The other party shouted again when there was no response.

Suddenly he realized something was wrong and cursed, "F*ck!"

When he was about to hang up the phone, Luo Rui said, "I think you two should not run away. You two brothers and sisters should meet in hell."

Luo Rui made a gesture to Chu Yang, who nodded immediately.

Chu Yang pressed the keyboard with both hands and accessed the background of the nearby traffic monitoring. This time he didn't need to crack it. Before the action, the local transportation bureau had already given him instructions.

What he had to do now was to find out the vehicles still moving on the streets near Fuli Road. Five minutes would be equivalent to a distance of three to five kilometers around.

At this time, the other party heard Luo Rui's voice, was stunned for a few seconds, and then hung up the phone.

Luo Rui quickly took out the walkie-talkie and ordered the police officers who were lying in ambush downstairs to send out cars in all directions to search for suspicious vehicles within three to five kilometers.

Then he looked at the technical detective: "How is it, did you find out?"

"The time is too short. The approximate range is here, south of the suburbs." The technical police pointed to the computer screen, and green dots flashed near the riverside plantation.

Liao Kang said: "Luo Rui, I am familiar with this place. It is not far from here. I will take people there now. If you find any information, let me know immediately!"

"Okay!" Liao Kang ran downstairs with the panda and called the anti-drug detachment of Qianjiang City Public Security Bureau.

For tonight's operation, all these people are on standby at the police station.

Luo Rui looked at the computer in front of Chu Yang: "How is it? Is there any situation?"

"Not found yet."

The two technical detective officers sitting nearby also quickly connected to the Traffic Bureau's backend and searched for surveillance videos at a very fast speed.

Luo Rui stood behind them with a stern expression.

Time passed slowly and his heart was in his throat.

Suddenly, he patted the technical detective on the shoulder and said, "Can you help me check... check which numbers have just answered calls around here!?"

Upon hearing this, the technical detective police understood what Luo Rui meant.

He quickly switched screens and started operating the computer.

A minute later, he said, "There was a phone call at 5:02 in the morning. The call lasted only three seconds."

"Where?"

"The last signal location appeared on Hedong Road, and the signal has disappeared. The other party must have removed the SIM card."

Luo Rui quickly ordered Chu Yang: "Find the surveillance camera on Hedong Road! Act quickly!"

Chu Yang operated the computer very quickly with both hands. "There are sixteen road surveillance cameras on Hedong Road!"

Luo Rui ordered: "Check the vehicles that turned around and returned from Hedong Road three minutes ago!"

"understand!"

Luo Rui quickly took out the intercom and said to Su Mingyuan: "Everyone, please pay attention. The suspect is on Hedong Road. Everyone go to Hedong Road!"

"Received! Team leader, I'm on Hedong Road!"

Not long after, Chu Yang tapped the keyboard vigorously: "Bingo, found it."

Luo Rui immediately looked at his computer.

"This car!" Chu Yang pointed at the screen: "One minute ago, it turned around and left at the traffic light."

The computer screen is showing real-time monitoring, and the current time is 5:06.

Luo Rui only glanced at the car, then took out the intercom and told Su Mingyuan: "Everyone listen, the suspect vehicle is in the middle of Hedong Road, a white Toyota Prado with a license plate number of... Everyone must act quickly and surround this car for me."

"Roger that!"

"understand!"

……

A few seconds later, a shrill siren sounded outside the window, piercing the early morning tranquility.

At this time, it was still dark and many people were still dreaming.

Reports continued to come from the intercom.

"Team leader, we found the trace of the Toyota, now we are ready to block it!"

Luo Rui reminded: "The suspect must be carrying a gun. You must pay attention to safety. After forcing his car to stop, fire a warning shot. Don't get close easily."

Su Mingyuan: "Understood!"

Afterwards, Luo Rui looked at the real-time monitoring screen in front of Chu Yang.

The road was very dark in the early morning, with only the street lamps emitting a grayish-yellow light.

The driver of the Toyota Prado must have driven at full speed on the road after hearing the sirens.

There weren't many vehicles on the road, so it was going very fast.

The surveillance screen kept switching, tracking the whereabouts of the car.

When about to exit Hedong Road, the Toyota Prado ran through the red light, but two cars coming from the left and right, as if they had calculated the time, rushed out at the same time and crashed into the Toyota car together.

The Toyota car wanted to escape, but a Wuling van came from the opposite direction and hit its front at a very fast speed.

The Toyota was caught in the middle, in a dilemma.

Su Mingyuan kicked open the door of the van, took out his gun, and quickly surrounded the group with his men.

He first observed the situation in the car, then pointed the gun at the driver's side window. The police officer who caught up with him took out a sledgehammer, ran to the passenger side window, replaced the hammer, and smashed the window glass with the sledgehammer.

"Be quiet and don't move!"

“Hands on the wheel!”
