Chapter 366: Want my life? Or do you want my legs?

In the mountains.

Dark clouds were pressing overhead, strong winds were blowing, and the branches were trembling wildly.

Fang Yonghui held a branch in his hand and carefully explored the path ahead.

It was already seven o'clock in the evening, and everything was pitch black. Fortunately, he and Luo Rui carried flashlights with them, so they were able to move forward.

Two hours have passed since they entered the mountain from the construction site in the southern suburbs. Their current position is in the midline of the ridge, which is the middle zone.

The terrain of Fengshui County is high in the southwest and low in the northeast. The mountains form an arc along the southwest. The mountains are not high, but they are huge, like a sleeping Buddha with an arched back.

"Luo Da, we have to go out quickly, it's going to rain heavily."

"What did you say?" Luo Rui also held a broken branch in his hand, using it as a hiking pole.

At this time, because of the howling wind and the "whirring" sound from the treetops, he could not hear Fang Yonghui's words clearly.

Fang Yonghui stood there, waiting for Luo Rui to approach, and then said loudly: "Luo Da, I said we have to leave quickly, it's going to rain!"

"Okay, then speed up your pace and try to walk along the flat terrain."

"Okay!" Fang Yonghui pointed the flashlight forward, took two steps slowly, and walked forward side by side next to Luo Rui.

"Luo Da, are you inclined to let the five children enter this mountain five years ago?"

Luo Rui nodded: "It's very possible."

"At the beginning, Bureau Shen and Team Xu organized thousands of people to search the mountain. They almost searched the entire mountain, but they couldn't find any clues."

"How many of these thousands of people are policemen, and how many are search teams organized voluntarily by ordinary people? If the murderer is among these people and deliberately misleads the police in their investigation, even a massive search team may not be able to find it. Clues.”

Hearing this, Fang Yonghui immediately said: "Luo Da, do you still doubt Bai Kangyong? I heard that when the search team was set up, Bai Kangyong put in a lot of effort, not only providing personnel and supplies, but also personally leading the search team. People go up the mountain.

Is it possible that he was behind this secretly? ”

Luo Rui pondered: "Not necessarily. There are very few clues in this case, and the burial ground has been damaged. We cannot simply think that Bai Kangyong is involved in the case."

"I think it's him!" Fang Yonghui said with certainty: "There must be something fishy about deliberately destroying the burial site."

This matter is actually very contradictory. If Bai Kangyong is really related to this case, how can he explain that the body was dug up at his construction site? And you even called the police?

If it was really him who did it, it would be impossible for Xiang Ke's body to be seen again.

The only connection between Bai Kangyong and this case is his blood relationship with Xiang Ke.

Luo Rui also wondered whether Xiang Ke's death and the disappearance of other children might be related to Bai Kangyong's relatives?

For example, Bai Xianxian? Or is it Bai Kangyong’s wife Zhang Ru?

Illegitimate children of wealthy people are indeed prone to hostility and persecution from the original spouse's family.

But Luo Rui immediately dismissed this question.

There are two reasons. First, Guo Huilan was bullied by Bai Kangyong and his son. She never told anyone about her pregnancy. Even her husband Xiang Jiajun was kept in the dark. Luo Rui and the others knew about it. At that time, I had already checked with Xiang Jiajun. He had no trace of lying and indeed had no knowledge, which ruled out the suspicion of him committing the crime.

Secondly, after that incident, Guo Huilan did not suffer any more bullying from Bai Kangyong and his son. She was like a toy that had been played with once, so she did not inform the other party of Xiang Ke's existence, nor did she use it as an excuse to ask for money.

In this way, the possibility of Bai Kangyong and his son committing the crime is ruled out.

Luo Rui explained his speculation to Fang Yonghui in detail. After the latter listened, he frowned and said: "Luo Da, I don't think so. I think this case must be more or less related to them."< br>


"Oh? Why do you think so?"

Because of you... Fang Yonghui almost blurted out these words. After all, as soon as Luo Rui arrived in Fengshui County, he immediately had a conflict with the Taihe Group, and humiliated Bai Kangyong several times. His state was just like when he dealt with Gu Zhiliang in Shahe County. The scene is exactly the same.

"Luo Da, you said before about hunting tigers, aren't we ready to prepare?" Fang Yonghui asked.

"What? Are you anxious?"

"That's not true. It's just that I think we should notify the city and provincial departments and deploy personnel. Although this Bai Kangyong is not as vicious as the previous Gu Zhiliang, the water in Fengshui County is very deep. If we don't have external support, we can rely on Shen Bureau I don’t think they can remove the cancer that is Bai Kangyong.”

Fang Yonghui had a deeper reason that he didn't explain.

Killing tigers is very beneficial to them. After cracking down on gangsters and eliminating evil, rewards and achievements will come one after another. If they get soft, this is greater than the credit for solving one or two murder cases.

Who knows, how did Luo Rui come up on the rocket? Yang Bo, a local policeman, is now better than the chief of Wuyuan Police Station. Fang Yonghui, a police academy graduate who knew nothing about anything, followed Luo Rui and increased his police rank several times in just two years. times, second-class merit and third-class merit have been obtained.

Let's talk about Li Nong, the captain of the criminal police brigade was promoted to deputy bureau, and Lu Kangming was transferred from the county bureau to the Linjiang city bureau, all because of Luo Rui's fault.

To put it bluntly, Bai Kangyong's Taihe Group is a stepping stone for promotion.

If the tiger hunt is really successful, Luo Rui will definitely be the captain of the city's detachment by the end of this year, and Fang Yonghui and the others will also become famous. I don't know how many leaders of other city bureaus and county bureaus are reviewing their files and lobbying from all directions. I want to transfer them to important positions in my own unit.

Fang Yonghui firmly believes that one day, sooner or later, after the members of the criminal team are released, everyone will have meritorious service. Not to mention being a criminal police captain, the position of deputy captain is certain.

Everyone is discussing this matter privately. Tian Guanghan, Chu Yang and Su Mingyuan from the Haijiang Branch have already been arranged by the bureau. Once they return, they will be high-ranking officials with generous salaries, and they will be superior to others.

If Luo Rui can one day enter the Criminal Police Corps, then Cai Xiaojing will definitely cross that threshold at the same time, not to mention Lin Chen, who was originally arranged to be gold-plated.

Fang Yonghui and others knew very well how many people had crossed the threshold and wanted to work in the criminal team. Wouldn't it be foolish not to hug Luo Rui's thigh tightly at this time?

Luo Rui sighed and looked at the situation down the mountain. It was already dark, and only the stars in the city dotted the earth.

"Yonghui, you have to know that Bai Kangyong and Gu Zhiliang are two different types of people. Gu Zhiliang is a private smuggler and is also involved with Zhang Jun. The Imperial City headquarters has long made up its mind to destroy their gang.

Bai Kangyong's private ass is definitely not clean, but he hides his tail very deeply. How many days have we been here? We haven’t investigated anything about him yet, so how can we tell the city and provincial department?

What's more, this also involves some people in the county, let alone Shen Huaimin and Xu Chengzhi. If Bai Kangyong is really punished, then both of them will end up slacking off at work and ineffective in doing things. So, what's going on here? The water is very deep and the resistance is relatively high.

Besides, why did we come to Fengshui County? This is a case that was solved five years ago. No clues have been found in this case. If we do other things, won't we be criticized by others?

As for us, we don’t have the time or energy to investigate Bai Kangyong’s criminal facts. ”

"Is there no other way?" Fang Yonghui was a little unwilling.

"Yes!"

"Luo Da, what can we do?"

"Luring the snake out of its hole, it would be fun if Bai Kangyong couldn't hold it in and didn't invite it. People, when they do something bad, they are afraid of ghosts knocking on the door."

"Uh..." Fang Yonghui was stunned and couldn't understand what he said. "How to lead?"

Luo Rui said no more, but said: "Let's go quickly. Go past this mountain pass, and below is Huainan Street. I think the rain is about to fall."

Fang Yonghui had no choice but to say nothing and concentrate on clearing the way ahead.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the treetops above them, blown by the strong wind, looked like ghouls in Harry Potter, looking hideous and terrifying under the dark night sky.

Luo Rui no longer focused on the topic just now, but looked around in the forest with a flashlight.

After wandering around the mountain for two hours, there were only narrow paths available, but they were halfway up the mountain and could not lead to the top of the mountain.

These roads are made by people. There is a lot of rain in summer and autumn, and the mountains and fields are full of fungi. Therefore, the people from the county down the mountain will go into the mountains to collect fungi.

In addition, Luo Rui also saw many animals such as pheasants and rabbits running around in the forest in the mountains. If hunting had not been banned before, these wild animals would have been killed long ago.

Thinking of this, Luo Rui suddenly froze, and a certain guess in his heart became more and more concrete.

If five children were walking down the street and it was the Spring Festival, it would be impossible for them not to be seen by someone, who would definitely be an eyewitness.

Excluding the possibility of being abducted by human traffickers, the possibility of these five children running into the mountains is increasing. After all, passing through the alley in their residential area is the way up the mountain, and it was snowing at the time.

If the snow falls heavily, it can completely cover up the footprints of these children!

There is a mountain behind Huainan Street, and it also leads to the construction site in the southern suburbs.

Xiang Ke was eight years old, the oldest of five children. He was capable of trekking in the mountains, but his body was found at a construction site in the southern suburbs.

Was he killed on the day of his disappearance, or later?

If he was killed during the day on the Spring Festival day of January 23, that would be before the police received the report.

But what if after that? The murderer committed the crime and killed someone while the police were investigating.

There are also two doubts. Why did the murderer take off his clothes when he buried the body? Secondly, why not bury Xiang Ke's body in the mountains instead of choosing a relatively flat wasteland? Finally, the cause of Xiang Ke's death is still unclear. How was he killed?

The most important question is, where are the other four children?

Are they still alive? Or had he died five years ago?

The haze has been shrouding the hearts of every ordinary person in Fengshui County, and it is also a thorn in the heart of the county police.

But Luo Rui didn't hold out hope that the children were still alive.

The possibility of living is very small!

But there is no doubt that Luo Rui always believed that the murderer was in Fengshui County. Whether he was a foreigner or a local, he must be someone living here and someone who knows the geographical environment very well, and there may be more than one murderer.

At this time, Fang Yonghui turned around and saw Luo Rui still frozen in place. He took a few steps back and said, "Luo Da, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, let's go." Luo Rui shook his head to get rid of the distracting thoughts in his mind.

But then, his ears twitched and his expression suddenly froze.

"Yonghui, stop!"

"What?" Fang Yonghui didn't understand, but he heard Luo Rui shout hurriedly: "Turn off the flashlight!"

Luo Rui had turned off the flashlight in his hand and took out a gun from behind.

Fang Yonghui was startled when he saw his action, and immediately extinguished the light source without saying a word.

In the past two years, Fang Yonghui has also experienced big scenes. Ordinary criminal police officers may never encounter a shooting once in their life, but almost all members of the criminal team carry guns, and they have killed several criminals, not to mention the ones they encountered. Big scene.

Fang Yonghui didn't look left or right, and immediately came to Luo Rui's side. The two stood with their backs to each other, and then looked around cautiously.

The location they were on was a relatively flat terrain, with very small distances between trees. It was dark all around, with only the rustling sound coming from the treetops above.

The light suddenly disappeared, and all around were invisible.

Although there was the sound of wind, Luo Rui's ears still heard the sound of feet stepping on dead branches and fallen leaves. "Crunch!"

The sound came from the rear left, in the field they were walking through.

Luo Rui pulled the safety catch of the pistol, holding the flashlight in his left hand, his left arm across his chest, and the gun in his right hand, with his wrist on his left arm.

Fang Yonghui also heard the untimely sound, and quickly pulled the safety catch, imitating Luo Rui's example, and looked ahead. He did not look in Luo Rui's direction, but chose another direction.

There was also a soft sound there. They didn't need to communicate at all. This was definitely not a sound that hares and pheasants could make.

There are people around here!

And they also surrounded them from front to back!

Fang Yonghui swallowed nervously and did not dare to move. Although his position had been exposed, if the enemy and we were unknown, if he moved lightly, he might make the other party take action immediately.

But one thing, he knew very well, the other party probably didn't have a gun in his hand.

If there were guns, these people must have shot them in the back when the flashlight emitted light earlier. Wouldn't it be stupid to let such an obvious living target go?

Furthermore, when they pulled the safety catch of the pistol, there was already a "click" sound. If the other party knew about guns, he should know who he was facing.

At this time, the wind became stronger and stronger, and the rain also fell from the forest.

Even so, both sides did not move or speak, and it seemed that a confrontation was forming.

Five minutes, ten minutes passed...

Luo Rui and Fang Yonghui were soaked to the skin, with rain all over their faces. Fang Yonghui's feet were numb when standing, and the other party didn't move. Just when he started to relax, a man's voice came from the darkness at the rear left.

"Two brothers, to tell you the truth, someone came to us to remove your legs. We followed you two and didn't do anything because we didn't know who you were. Now we understand that the employer wants us. Deal with the police.

We’re not going to do this anymore. Let’s leave now and you don’t want to pursue us, okay? ”

"Is someone buying my life?" Luo Rui smiled, although no one could see his smile.

"No, brother, I'm not killing you, I'm just removing your legs. I've also told you that we won't do this. We'll leave right away, and don't bother with us."
< br>

Hearing this, Luo Rui stood up straight and moved his sore lumbar spine.

"You think I'm stupid! Did you see me carrying a gun and you knew you couldn't defeat us, so you were ready to retreat?"

"Uh..."

"How many of you are there in total?"

"Uh..."

Luo Rui raised his eyebrows: "Stop talking nonsense. Since you know that we are the police, this matter cannot be resolved like this. Do you have a flashlight in your hand? Stand up, show your face, throw all the weapons on the ground, don't Said you didn’t bring it.”

The other party seemed to be thinking. After a long time, the voice replied: "Brother, if not, I will tell you who asked us to do something? But I have a condition, will you let us go? No more pursuing what happened tonight?" Can you agree?”

"Okay!" Luo Rui agreed without thinking at all.

The other party was obviously relieved: "Then it's settled, can't go back on it?"

"Of course, don't you believe what the police say?"

"The man who came to us is named Qian Dashan. He is a broker in the county. He often hangs out in nightclubs in the county. He is easy to recognize. He wears a big gold chain around his neck."

"Qian Dashan?"

"Yes, this is the guy. If you go to a nightclub and ask anyone, you will know him. He is a famous gangster who specializes in helping people to settle things."

"How much did I give you?"

"Eighty thousand."

"That's it?" Luo Rui was startled, thinking to himself, is he worth this price? : "Is this a reward for beggars? Eighty thousand yuan, you are so brave, you dare to accept the order? Who am I? The police? Just for this little money?"

"Uh..."

"Who hired Qian Dashan?"

“I don’t know who Taihe Group is specifically.”

Fang Yonghui was shocked when he heard this answer. Previously, Luo Da had said that he would lure the snake out of its hole, but now the Taihe Group dared to pay for the murder. Now it is sending people from the city and the provincial department. Isn't that justifiable?

What more real evidence is needed? Just this thing alone can pull Bai Kangyong's underwear off.

"I understand, you dare to take this order because you are relying on the power of the Taihe Group." Luo Rui sighed: "But I want to say one thing, such a big sale has changed hands so many times, and only It’s 80,000 yuan, but I think it’s much more than that.”

"I've made things clear to you, let's leave now." The other party ignored the matter and was about to leave.

Luo Rui and Fang Yonghui heard the sound of moving footsteps together.

"Wait a minute." Luo Rui called to several people.

"Do you want to go back on your word?" The other party's voice was filled with anger and hostility.

"What should I tell you, big tall man? You must be dirty and can't help but check. Otherwise, you guys will turn yourself in. Report and merit merit."

"You..."

"Don't you understand? Don't think I don't know who you are? You're a little over two meters tall and your voice doesn't sound like an ordinary person. You bastard was following me at the food stall last night, wasn't it?


Why didn't you know my identity? You already knew I was a policeman at that time. You followed me all the way and never made a move. Are you trying to take advantage of the terrain to do me? Seeing that I carry a gun with me, I feel afraid to take action. It’s not worth the money, right?

Stop being delusional..."

Before Luo Rui finished speaking, he suddenly felt a strong wind coming towards him, but the direction of the wind was behind him, and he heard the sound of "stomp" in his ears.

"Luo Da, be careful!" Fang Yonghui also heard it.

At this moment, they pushed the flashlight button at the same time.

In the extremely dark forest, two rays of light suddenly appeared, shining straight ahead.

In Luo Rui's sight, a huge figure rushed over quickly.

When the opponent started, he didn't use any light. He probably heard his own voice and used his ears to identify the location.

This person looked like a black bear at night, holding a machete in both hands, ready to slash.

Sure enough, this guy was not afraid of the police, but of the gun in his hand.

I was not prepared before taking action. I thought that dealing with the police was no different from dealing with ordinary people. It was too careless.

Luo Rui still had time to think about the other person in his mind. When the person was about to get close, he pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"Bang!"

A shot at close range, the bullet hit the opponent's wrist, causing his knife to fall into the mud.

"Bang!"

Another shot hit the opponent's hip joint, draining his energy of running.

With just two shots, the man fell to his knees on the ground.

Luo Rui took a step forward, raised his foot and kicked him hard in the chest.

At the same time, Fang Yonghui also opened fire.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

Three consecutive gunshots were fired, and the shooting directions were changed, knocking down the two people approaching. The other person was more alert and quickly hid behind a big tree, not daring to show his head.

These four people all held two-foot-long knives in their hands.

Needless to say, this is a life-threatening adventure in the mountains!

The two-meter-tall man was lying on his back in the mud, struggling to get up in the rain. Without saying a word, Luo Rui kicked him in the lower back again.

He has rough skin and thick flesh, and can withstand beatings very well. If his explosive power is not relieved, who knows if he will get dry again.

After a burst of punches and kicks, the tall man was already dying and could not get up.

Luo Rui stopped paying attention to this person. When Fang Yonghui subdued the other two people, he raised his gun and stepped behind the big tree.

"Come out! If you don't come out, will I shoot?"

"Don't shoot, I surrender! I surrender!" The man was frightened, his legs were exposed and he was trembling.

Then, he threw out the machete in his hand, raised his hands, and ducked out from behind the tree.

"How many people do you have?" Luo Rui asked while approaching him without putting down his gun.

"Four...just the four of us..."

"Are you sure?"

"Really, officer, I dare not lie."

"Do you want my life? Or my legs?"

The man was trembling with fear and did not dare to look directly at Luo Rui. He said with trembling lips: "Legs! Just legs, officer, Lao Niu didn't lie."

"No, I don't think so, you just want my life!" Luo Rui sneered and was about to put away the gun when a gunshot suddenly rang in his ears.

"Bang!"

He hurriedly turned around, only to see Fang Yonghui fall down in response...

Thanks to Noah’s Ark and My Name Creation for their building! !

Kneel down and thank you.
