Chapter 311 Restrictions
Chen Ming drives the shuttle boat.
He headed towards the police station where Cheng Xinghe was currently according to the news someone had just sent him.
His mind was thinking about his next move.
This matter is now half clear.
Because so far only Cheng Xinghe has been really involved.
But in fact, the purpose of the person who caused this incident was definitely not Cheng Xinghe.
The simplest truth.
If Cheng Xinghe was really going to be punished, there shouldn't be so much news coming out on the school network, and Cheng Xinghe shouldn't be sent to the solitary room like he was being paraded through the streets before.
These actions of not restraining themselves, just letting the news ferment are revealing.
That means these messages were released deliberately.
And Chen Ming also believed that even if he wasn't there, even if he didn't care at all, Cheng Xinghe would be able to come out of the police station intact.
Someone was using Cheng Xinghe as a target, and then trying to use the opportunity to attract other people's attention.
This other person may be from the Baiquan faction, or it may be Chen Ming himself.
It should be myself.
Chen Ming thought so.
After all, this time is too coincidental.
But what's the point of doing this? What was the purpose of attracting him here?
Where are the people behind the scenes? What does he want to do?
It seemed to be targeting Cheng Xinghe, but in fact, it was targeting Chen Ming. But it was targeted, but it didn't come to him. What was it targeted at?
You will never give up halfway through something, and there should be a next step soon.
Chen Ming should go to the police station first and meet with Cheng Xinghe.
On the way through.
Chen Ming took out his terminal and called He Gu and told him that he would not be able to go to the headquarters of the Psychic Research Institute until at least tomorrow.
Originally, He Gu should be able to wait for him today, but now he definitely can't.
After hanging up the phone.
Chen Ming noticed that Cheng Xinghai beside him lowered his head slightly, his expression still a little nervous and worried.
Although she has been on the battlefield, for middle- and lower-level officers on the battlefield, all they have to face is the simplest life-and-death situation.
What happens here is obviously more complicated.
Chen Ming didn't have much to say, so he could only comfort him: "Don't worry, Cheng Xinghe will be fine."
"Yeah."
The shuttle boat arrived outside the police station a short time later.
Chen Ming strode to the front desk of the police station.
The female receptionist at the front desk immediately asked enthusiastically after seeing Chen Ming's outfit: "Hello, what can I do for you?"
Chen Ming also looked at the receptionist and confirmed that she did not recognize him and was not involved in this matter.
So Chen Ming didn't do anything extra, he just said: "Find someone."
"Is it because I can't be contacted or..."
"It's not that we can't be contacted, it's probably because we were caught here."
The receptionist immediately stopped registering on the computer, looked up at Chen Ming, and asked with some uncertainty: "What did you say?"
"He was caught here. His name is Cheng Xinghe. We want to see him as a family member."
The receptionist suddenly became a little confused.
However, a police officer immediately came behind the front desk and motioned the receptionist to go elsewhere.
The new police officer looked at Chen Ming with an apologetic look and said, "I'm sorry, it's not convenient for us to meet with you, Cheng Xinghe, because he is an important suspect in a serious injury case. It's not convenient for us to disclose the others." Too much.”
He stretched out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling man, and Chen Ming did not become aggressive when he came up. Instead, he followed normal logic and asked: "He is a suspect? What did he do?"
"Right now, it's just a beating that caused serious injuries. The injured are still being treated in the hospital. I can't say more about the specific inconvenience."
"Is there any evidence? Surveillance or something?"
"There is definitely evidence, but it's hard to tell the specifics."
"Even family members can't reveal it?"
"Even with the family members, the most we can do is explain the situation clearly. We really can't say more."
"Even if you just want to see the surveillance?"
"No."
The constant questioning made the police officer a little impatient: "The evidence we have is really not convenient for others to see, and even if it is available, it is impossible to show it to you."
"Yeah."
After finally receiving a clear answer, Chen Ming nodded calmly, turned around and answered the phone.
The people on the other end of the phone from the Baiquan faction were helping Chen Ming.
They relied on the manpower within the police system and gave Chen Ming a temporary investigative authority to participate in this matter according to a legal provision.
That is all criminal cases involving military families and reservists.
The relevant military department can apply for an access authority to supervise the investigation progress of this case to prevent perjury and the like and ensure that there will be no problems,
Generally speaking, this authority will not be too high, but it will be enough to understand the entire case.
Under normal circumstances, this authority will not be granted to people who are related to the person at that time.
However, Cheng Xinghai is indeed a family member, but Chen Ming is not yet.
At least before getting married, Chen Ming was legally an outsider and could fully assume this responsibility.
The people from the faction also told Chen Mingliao the hospital where Hongsheng was at this time.
Monitoring is maintained at all times.
After finishing the phone call with Chen Ming.
The police officer in front of him soon answered a call. During the process of responding, his eyes towards Chen Ming gradually became suspicious.
A few hours later, he put down the phone and said to Chen Ming: "What do you want to do?"
"Like I just said, I want to see the evidence."
"What type of evidence?"
"The most direct kind is monitoring."
The police officer thought about it and said: "We have no surveillance evidence..."
Chen Ming slammed his fist on the table.
He really wanted the psychic fluctuations to spread directly and control the entire police station. He personally searched the entire police station to see if there was any surveillance evidence.
But the psychic power that existed on the entire planet suddenly locked onto him again, apparently sensing the changes in Chen Ming's psychic fluctuations.
"Tsk."
Chen Ming had no choice but to take out a recording pen from his pocket and press the play button.
This is the audio he recorded in the school security room just now.
Everything the student guarding the gate said is contained in this.
Although I usually prefer to use psychic powers in a simple and crude way, there is definitely no shortage of preparations and instructions.
"Do you need me to help you find the person?"
The slap in the face did not make the police officer blush at all.
Faced with Chen Ming's questioning, he seemed to have no consciousness that he had just told a lie. Instead, he said to Chen Ming: "Wait a moment."
After saying that, he turned around, went to the back of the front desk, and picked up the phone.
About ten minutes later.
The student who was guarding the school just now hurried to the police station.
His face showed tension, panic, fear and terror.
Not just to Chen Ming, but also to the police officers in front of him, and to some other people who were not present.
He came to Chen Ming and the police officer, tremblingly, and said after a pause: "Well... I actually don't know anything, but when he threatened me with his status as a senior colonel, I got scared and wanted to hurry up. Make up something to make people leave, what I said before was all false.”
Chen Ming knew that what the student said at this time was the rhetoric taught to him by others. He was just an ordinary student. This was not his problem, but he still had to say: "You'd better think about it clearly."
< br>
But before the student could speak, the police officer next to him stopped Chen Ming and said, "Mr. Chen Ming, even if you do have this authority now, you are still a university student, and you cannot threaten other people in front of us."
Chen Ming snorted coldly and said: "If your reminder is considered a threat, then I have to ask you what do you mean?"
The police officer had a dark face and did not dare to answer Chen Ming for a moment.
Chen Ming didn't want to look at the police officer anymore, so he turned towards the students and hung the colonel's military rank badge on his chest.
"Tell me, what is the real situation?"
"I...I..."
The student who was found had his limbs stiff and did not dare to move at all. His face was full of fear and he could not utter a complete sentence at all.
At most, Chen Ming had frightened him a little before. At that time, the student could still communicate with him fluently.
But now, he is stammering when he speaks, and he must have been threatened by others.
And the presentation of the threat is much more serious.
Chen Ming has already thought of many ways to threaten a student.
Seeing him with tears welling up in his eyes, Chen Ming couldn't bear to say, "Forget it, let's go."
Chen Ming stopped asking the student questions and forced him to give true answers.
He was just an unlucky student who was assigned to guard the door and was threatened by others.
It's really not necessary.
But even after hearing Chen Ming's words, the student did not dare to move at all, and instead looked at the police officer.
The police officer immediately stepped forward and held his shoulders and sent him out of the police station.
After a while, he turned back to Chen Ming and said, "I'll help you find the surveillance camera. Just wait a moment."
"What? Has your conscience discovered it?"
Chen Ming didn't think such a thing could happen in the world.
The police officer did not respond to Chen Ming and disappeared inside the police station.
Let Chen Ming wait outside.
Time flies.
The police officer never came back.
Even though Chen Ming kept urging him, he returned to Chen Ming with empty hands after nearly an hour.
"Sorry, Mr. Chen Ming, the storage device for surveillance evidence is broken."
Now Chen Ming knew why the police officer suddenly had a conscience.
However, he was not angry, but followed the logic of evidence damage and said: "It means the evidence is gone, right?"
"The evidence that Cheng Xinghe was brought in is gone. Can he be released?"
The police officer now looked completely rogue and said, "That still won't work."
Chen Ming laughed and said: "How did Cheng Xinghe get sent to the solitary room? Because the surveillance camera caught him fighting first."
"Why can't you let Cheng Xinghe go? Because the surveillance is broken."
"Is this human language?"
The police officer said with a sullen face: "What I said should be human language, but you don't seem to understand."
Chen Ming was not used to the yin and yang, and surging spiritual energy fluctuations instantly surrounded him.
And just as Chen Ming made a move, the psychic wave that had locked onto Chen Ming when he entered the space station also reacted immediately.
They also wrapped around Chen Ming's body, locking Chen Ming's spiritual energy and preventing this spiritual energy fluctuation from being released. Chen Ming did not relax, but he also did not go further and directly invoke spiritual energy.
Maintained within the original range.
But that psychic energy wave did not accept this result. Instead, it further compressed Chen Ming's mental power inward, oppressed Chen Ming's consciousness, and wanted to force Chen Ming to give up the use of psychic energy.
It seems that even an ordinary level 5 psyker may not be able to withstand this pressure of mental power
But Chen Ming is not an ordinary person, and the quality of his mental power is quite terrifying.
He has relied on various powerful negative-effect ectoplasm stones for training for a long time, and also experienced the half-second experience in the scarlet dimension. The quality of his mental power is absolutely indescribable
Chen Ming can easily withstand even the pressure from a level 6 psychic.
But Cheng Xinghai can't.
She had been following Chen Ming from the beginning. When Chen Ming was targeted by a level 6 psychic, she could also feel the terrifying power from the outside world on Chen Ming.
Even the aftermath of this power made her turn pale. Her current strength was not enough to compete.
Just when Cheng Xinghai was almost unable to bear it any longer, Chen Ming's mental power instantly enveloped Cheng Xinghai, protecting her from the oppression of this unknown mental power that came from somewhere.
As for the others, even if they did not need Chen Ming's protection, they did not feel the effect of this spiritual power at all.
This is what the level 6 psyker is targeting.
Cheng Xinghai felt better immediately, but she immediately looked at Chen Ming nervously.
Although Chen Ming's face showed a relaxed expression, her worries did not diminish.
"Chen Ming..."
Chen Ming waved his hand to her, indicating that he was fine.
He just stood here, resisting the oppression of the psyker.
Three minutes later.
The terminal on Chen Ming suddenly rang, it was an unknown number.
Chen Ming immediately answered the call, and a rich voice asked him: "What are you doing?"
"Check the monitoring, only the monitoring."
"Okay."
The call was hung up.
The limitations of Chen Ming's spiritual energy fluctuations also disappeared.
But Chen Ming could feel that the psychic was paying more attention to the situation here.
At this point, Chen Ming roughly understood the reason why he was invited to the headquarters.
Someone must have been collecting intelligence on his psychic powers, and now it is finally confirmed that his psychic powers can be discovered and blocked when they are first used. As long as you keep paying attention throughout the process, Chen Ming's psychic powers will certainly not be able to be unprepared. gush out.
That's why when he comes, there will be such a level 6 psyker waiting for him, and it will definitely not be psykers like Yan Xiong and Hu Yi who have just entered level 6.
Such psykers remain absolutely wary of Chen Ming.
Of course, this level 6 psyker is not so unreasonable.
He should know what is happening here.
But he obviously had no intention of getting involved.
The people below compete with each other and it has nothing to do with him.
Anyway, he can just watch until something doesn't cross the bottom line.
After the restrictions on his psychic abilities were lifted, Chen Ming finally let out a deep breath.
Feeling comfortable.
He had never felt so good.
How uncomfortable it was to be restricted before, but now how comfortable he feels after the restrictions are lifted.
And he knew that this was just a feeling that the level 6 psyker had in a short period of time after he let go of his restrictions. After the matter was over, restrictions would still continue to come.
Unless he has enough strength to resist, he must abide by the rules set by the stronger one.
He has to become stronger.
Chen Ming had some more insights in his mind.
However, he did not show it, but said to the police officer in front of him who seemed to have noticed something: "Take me to the damaged equipment. Don't tell me that the equipment has turned to dust in just a few hours."
The police officer's expression suddenly became tense.
The order he received was to delay, to delay, to delay with any excuse, to tell any lie, as long as it delayed time.
Anyway, the higher-ups didn't expect to be able to keep Cheng Xinghe, as long as they could delay the situation.
That's what he did.
And just now, he had already deleted and overwritten the data related to the database, and finally destroyed the device.
But in front of Chen Ming's spiritual power, nothing about the mechanical equipment could be concluded.
So he was still a little flustered.
But now he has no other interface to continue delaying.
He could only lead Chen Ming slowly to the inside of the police station.
He said to a damaged data storage device placed on a table in the office: "This is it."
Chen Ming walked into the office, looked back at the police officer who did not avoid it, and said nothing more.
Anyway, this man must know a lot, and he must know things about psykers.
The key to the problem now is whether Chen Ming can restore the device.
Chen Ming has no doubts about whether he can restore this point.
Because his spiritual energy was blessed by dimensional power before.
The effectiveness of Repair Psionics has also been enhanced.
Chen Ming has specially tested it. At least for now, even if the equipment turns to dust, as long as the dust is still there, he can restore the things to their original state.
Even if the data is deleted or overwritten, he can regain all the lost data.
Chen Ming's spiritual energy acted on the device in front of him, and metallic liquid appeared from the void and entangled it.
Within a few seconds, the appearance of the entire device returned to its original appearance.
Chen Ming also easily saw the footage on the surveillance camera.
The impact caused by the power of Cheng Xinghe's punch.
Liao Hongsheng's posture after falling to the ground, a self-protective reaction.
All can prove that it is absolutely impossible for Cheng Xinghe to seriously injure anyone, especially the brain.
This video alone can prove Cheng Xinghe's innocence to a large extent.
If you insist on saying it, there is still an interface. For example, if Liao Hongsheng had some brain disease, Cheng Xinghe punched it out.
But far-fetched reasons cannot be used as evidence of conviction.
Chen Ming can definitely take out the surveillance cameras to prove his innocence.
but.
He didn't do that.
Chen Ming also frowned and placed the storage device that seemed to have been restored to its original state on the table, shaking his head slightly.
If things ended so soon, there were a lot of things he wouldn't be able to do.
He wants to show weakness and make people think that he has indeed not obtained enough evidence, so that the person targeting him can continue with the next step.
Chen Ming turned his head and asked the police officer: "If the surveillance video is broken, what evidence is there to prove that it is Cheng Xinghai?"
The police officer finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this question: "Cheng Xinghe's case is still under investigation. As the only person at the crime scene, he is suspected of committing a major crime, so even if there is not enough evidence, we can still ask him to cooperate with the investigation. ”
"Suspicion of a major crime? That means Cheng Xinghe must be kept here for at least 24 hours no matter what, right?"
The policeman didn't say anything, so he acquiesced.
"Okay, then let me go in and see him. I also have the right to investigate now."
"It's okay to investigate, but if you meet the suspect... only the team leader of our entire case investigation team has this authority."
"There is no one in the bureau now. I don't have the authority to release people, nor do I have the authority to let people in."
This is the rule.
State the rules that must be followed.
Although he gained the identity to participate in this incident through a rule that was beneficial to him.
However, the authority of this identity obtained through rules is not high.
After all, it is impossible for the Legion to let the army completely overwhelm the police station. The police station cannot be just a vassal of the army.
Otherwise, the foundation of all government systems will cease to exist among the chaotic powers.
What Chen Ming now has is the authority of ordinary police officers involved in investigating incidents.
If the team leader only has the authority to find suspects, Chen Ming really can't get around this.
This feeling of limitation is really not good.
Just now, Chen Ming was physically restricted by the psychic fluctuations of the level 6 psyker, and now, he was restricted by the rules again.
Chen Ming had nothing to say about this and could only ask: "When will the team leader come back?"
"I don't know, maybe tomorrow."
"Tomorrow? If a serious crime occurs and someone is not at the police station, does it count as absence from duty?"
"It doesn't count, because he went out to investigate, to investigate on the victim's side."
Chen Ming frowned and asked: "Are you sure?"
"Um... maybe somewhere else, but he must have gone to investigate."
What a pity...
Chen Ming turned his head.
If only this police officer had been more courageous.
There are people from their faction at the hospital, and they can be sure that there is no such team leader in the entire hospital.
If the police officer dared to say where the team leader was, Chen Ming dared to directly use evidence to question the team leader for leaving his post without permission and seizing his authority to do things.
But now... it's a pity.
Chen Ming could only ask for a current investigation report and did not continue to stay in the police station.
When Cheng Xinghai saw Chen Ming coming out, he immediately asked Chen Ming's situation with concern.
Because she was a relative of Cheng Xinghe, she had no investigative authority and could not intervene at all. She could not follow Chen Ming into the police station.
In addition, she has never experienced this type of thing. No matter how smart she is, it will take time to adapt.
Now she could only follow behind Chen Ming, listen and watch silently.
Trying to analyze possible ways of doing things from the clues she could see.
Although Chen Ming was watching at this time, he was still thinking about how to contact Cheng Xinghe.
Anyway, forceful means are absolutely impossible, and the level 6 psyker will not let him do this.
So how to contact Cheng Xinghe?
Chen Ming sat back on a chair near the lounge inside the police station, shaking his legs impatiently and tapping his toes.
The fingers on the armrest were tapping on the metal armrest.
Cheng Xinghai, who had been paying attention to the report in Chen Ming's hand, gradually noticed Chen Ming's small movements.
She seemed to hear some hidden patterns.
Just when she looked up at Chen Ming's face, Chen Ming immediately made a silencing gesture to her.
