Chapter 3

I trembled and groped down from the bed, squatted down and picked up the magazines left by the young man.

When I looked through it, I realized that the other party had made a discount mark on a page in the journal, and the mark was the title page I made with the magazine I photographed by Lu Zhihang...

Holding the magazine, I sat on the hospital bed and didn't sleep all night

The next morning

After breakfast in the hospital cafeteria, I originally planned to go back to the ward to sleep

After a night of excitement and random thoughts, I felt extremely tired

But when I climbed into the hospital bed and prepared to go to bed, an unexpected guest came to the ward.

Wu Zhongjun, who asked me about Lu Zhihang's interpersonal relationships in the police station, actually brought someone to my ward suddenly. Wu Zhongjun's appearance surprised me. When I saw clearly the person who appeared with Wu Zhongjun, I couldn't help but be stunned.

The person who appeared beside Wu Zhongjun turned out to be Lu Zhihang's comrade-in-arms He Antang

He Antang is not the same soldier as Lu Zhihang and I. He joined the army two years earlier than Lu Zhihang and me.

During the training of recruits, Lu Zhihang and others were recruits, and he was already the leader of the troops.

However, he was not the leader of Lu Zhihang and me, and he didn't have much interaction with us during the recruit company stage.

However, when we were divided into the company, Lu Zhihang and others were assigned to the regiment where he was. He finished the training mission and returned to the regiment headquarters to report, he acted as our regiment chief officer with the regiment headquarters who came to receive the troops.

Because of this reason, he became the first comrades who we recruits were familiar with after they went to the company.

Although he didn't take us directly, he had participated in the training of our soldiers. So after he got in the company, he took good care of our soldiers.

Among his veterans, he is also the one with the closest contact with me and Lu Zhihang, the soldiers.

This close relationship lasted until after we retired

Before I fainted, he was one of the few comrades I notified.

However, in my memory, he went to Xinjiang after he was discharged from the army, and once hunted gold and planted cotton. Later, for some reason, he met the daughter of a cadre in a certain place in the Production and Construction Corps, and eventually became the other party's son-in-law

Among my comrades who deliberately informed me, he is the farthest from my city.

On the phone, he confirmed that he would come over, but in my prediction, he should have arrived last among our comrades. But unexpectedly, before the other comrades came, he was the first to appear in front of me.

After Yan Guang's two brothers arranged by him showed a vigilant and hatred look when they saw someone they didn't know, especially one of them, who was wearing police uniforms, appeared in the ward.

Wu Zhongjun seemed to be unaware of the attitudes of these two people at this moment, with an apology smile on his face.

As soon as He Antang entered the door, he focused all his attention on me, so he naturally ignored the two escorts with fierce expressions.

A Ping... Zhihang has an accident, why are you lying in the hospital now? What is wrong with you and him? After confirming that the patient lying on the hospital bed is me, He Antang walked straight to me with big strides

He reached out and held my arm and shook it. On the one hand, he confirmed my physical condition, but also showed a natural sense of intimacy.

The old squad leader, it’s hard to describe it... When I see my hardcore comrades-in-arms, I am naturally excited.

But when I think of Lu Zhihang, I don’t know how to talk to He Antang.

I'm blaming me. I don't know that Xiao Yan was feeling unwell. I forced him to learn about Lu Zhihang's family and social relations, and ended up fainting at the police station. I don't know how to start talking to He Antang, but I never thought that Wu Zhongjun took the initiative to take the responsibility on his head.

Hearing Wu Zhongjun say this, He Antang turned around and showed a reproachful expression.

I said that the old platoon leader knew that you are now a policeman and it is your job to ask witnesses to understand the situation, but you have done it too much! How can you understand the situation and ask the extent of people fainting?

Old platoon leader? When I heard He Antang say this, I looked at Wu Zhongjun in surprise

Perhaps because he noticed my surprise at this moment, He Antang quickly explained

You don't know? Old Wu and we came out of the same unit and I went to the company, and he was my platoon leader. But when your group of soldiers were sent to the company, he was transferred to the brigade headquarters as a staff officer, so you have never seen him before. When I heard this, I suddenly realized

Wu Zhongjun showed an embarrassing expression

Ah Wu Ah... Xiao Yan came out of our army and I didn't know beforehand. I had known that they were all comrades-in-arms, would you think I would pull him to ask questions at the police station? I must have found time to visit his house directly

Yes, Yes, Yes... He Antang also realized that the three people present now strictly said that they were all comrades from the same army, and it was unnecessary to get involved in some small misunderstandings, so he patted my shoulder gently while immediately reshuffling the situation.

Everyone is not outsiders. I think Aping, you don’t seem to have any big problems. Let’s not talk about this. After that, He Antang pulled a chair casually, sat down next to my bed, and started a conversation with me.

Aping, I already know about Zhihang. On the way here, the old platoon leader also introduced me to me. You tell me, this is the case at Zhihang's home... When I saw me, I showed a confused expression to He Antang's words at this moment.

Wu Zhongjun realized that I was unconscious these two days and didn't know what happened outside, so he quickly took over the conversation.

Let me say this is the case, Xiao Yan Ah... After you fainted, I sent you to the hospital, and then went back to the police station to continue investigating Lu Zhihang's case with colleagues. This morning, the Criminal Investigation Brigade and the comrades involved in the investigation in the institute made a preliminary determination of the case...

Is it true? Are you saying that Zhihang's case was solved? I immediately became happy when I heard Wu Zhongjun say this

I didn't even know how the comrade died accidentally, but when I heard that the case was solved, it means that Lu Zhihang's death came to a conclusion. Thinking about my comrade's spirit in heaven, I would naturally feel relieved.

It's just a general judgment. Strictly speaking, it's not a question of solving the case. But when the suspect is found and then physical evidence such as the murder weapon is found, I think the truth about Lu Zhihang's death will be revealed.

How did Zhihang die? Who killed him? I asked quickly

Wu Zhongjun looked hesitantly at the two escorts who were still staring at him and He Antang at this moment.

I understood what he meant, and quickly used a color on the two of them.

The two brothers agreed and left the ward and closed the door. After Wu Zhongjun calmly told me about the progress of the police station's investigation in the past two days.

Originally... the case has not been solved yet. I shouldn't have revealed the specific inside story to you, but you and I are both comrades-in-arms, and Lu Zhihang, who unfortunately died, is also my comrades-in-arms. So, I thought I should tell you something. When I heard Wu Zhongjun say this, I nodded repeatedly.

Wu Zhongjun noticed my urgent mood at this moment, and Fangcai started to tell the case again and the public security personnel's ideas on solving the case.

Lu Zhihang was stabbed to death with a knife in his home. The results of the investigation did not find that the doors and windows were damaged. Someone broke into the murder. In addition, there were no signs of Lu Zhihang fighting with others and causing death. From the experience of us, it was impossible for him to hurt himself with a knife. So, in the end, we judged that Lu Zhihang should have been assassinated by someone he was familiar with without any defense... Therefore, it should be an acquaintance who committed the murder. Because only acquaintances can enter and exit Lu Zhihang's residence freely, and only acquaintances can commit the murder on him without any defense.

That's why you doubt me when the police station saw me and then interrogated me on the grounds of understanding the situation? At this moment, I understood why Wu Zhongjun suddenly became interested in me after hearing my phone call and pulled me to interrogate me constantly.

It's Ah, and it's also the people in our office who lack communication. I don't know that Xiao Huang has already recorded you. You were in your workplace when the incident occurred. There were sufficient evidence. You don't have the time to commit the crime. You should see the transcripts Xiao Huang and his friends gave you and the certificates given to you by your colleagues. I won't ask you too much, and even temporarily find someone to go to the branch to check your case files. Speaking of this, Wu Zhongjun expressed his apology again on his face.

Wu Zhongjun understood and continued to talk.

Next we started to investigate the friends around Lu Zhihang, but by last night, we had not contacted Lu Zhihang's lover Lin Meimei, she had never returned home, and after Lu Zhihang's death, she had never appeared in her workplace, so...

Speaking of this, all three people in the ward hung their heads unconsciously

Especially He Antang and I, my comrade-in-arms, died unexpectedly, and he and I also had a little thought of fulfilling our comrade-in-arms.

But now the public security organs point the suspicion at the wife of our comrades... This makes us comrades have an embarrassing state of being energetic and having nowhere to do it.

After all, it is difficult for honest officials to settle family affairs. If Lu Zhihang's death was really caused by the family conflict between him and Lin Meimei, how could we comrades have room for intervention.

Moreover, when Lu Zhihang was taking care of his mistress outside, we are all insiders, and the only one who concealed it was Lin Meimei.

If Lin Meimei had hatred against Lu Zhihang and caused murder because of this incident, we comrades would probably be to blame.

This is just our preliminary judgment now! We have also learned some situations from Lin Meimei's workplace. It is said that Lin Meimei may have lovers outside, and her behavior has also seemed to be a bit strange to her colleagues. The business has been handled in a strange way... I guess I felt that the atmosphere in the room was depressing, so Wu Zhongjun quickly continued to speak.

But when he said that Lin Meimei might have a lover outside

He Antang and I were cheering up again

People nowadays think this way. When they may need to take responsibility for something, they will be depressed.

But when you realize that it is not your fault, you will immediately become extremely interested.

If Lin Meimei killed someone to vent her anger because Lu Zhihang maintained his mistress, then it would be difficult for He Antang and I to have a hatred for Lin Meimei.

If Lin Meimei had murdered her husband because she had a new love outside, He Antang and I could stand at the highest point of morality and whip Lin Meimei unscrupulously...

So, now the Criminal Investigation Brigade has begun to search for Lin Meimei's whereabouts throughout the city, and also arranged people to go to her hometown to find people. Before A Wu and I came over, the people from the brigade had already set off. Speaking of this, Wu Zhongjun shook his head.

Alas, in this society nowadays... Although he still says that according to professional habits, Lin Meimei is just a suspect, in my opinion, Wu Zhongjun is afraid that he has confirmed Lin Meimei as the murderer in his heart.

By the way... Lin Meimei didn't know whereabouts, where is Zhihang's son Lu Song? Have you ever been to find him? I remember that the child should be boarding in school. At this moment, I suddenly thought of this family tragedy and a direct relationship person.

That is Lu Zhihang's fifteen-year-old son Lu Song

It seems that he is the ultimate victim of this case and the most harmed victim.

I'm afraid he's with Lin Meimei. Wu Zhongjun's expression is helpless at this moment

We also sent people to the school where Lu Song was located, but we got the news. Not long after the incident, Lin Meimei went to the school to pick Lu Song away. This was also the last place and time for Lin Meimei to appear in our control... When Wu Zhongjun said this, he fell into silence in the ward.

I don't know how long it took, but I was so exhausted that I couldn't help but yawn.

The tranquility in the room was also broken

What's wrong? Aping, didn't sleep well last night? He Antang quickly asked with concern

Well, because of the matter of thinking about Zhihang, I almost didn't fall asleep all night. Of course, I wouldn't tell the two people in front of me about a mysterious young man breaking into my ward last night.

Zhihang's case gave me a natural excuse, so I lie in front of the two without thinking

Ah... Then you should lie down and sleep! In addition to me, Li Feng and Liu Tao seem to have also been to Zhihang's affairs. I will discuss with them and you will rest in the hospital first. I really need to find you. Let's come to the hospital and discuss with you. Can you see this? He Antang immediately told his own arrangements.

Zhihang's hometown has to arrange people to go over... He lives in the city with his family. I remember that his mother is old and in poor health. People from the past should pay attention when informing the news. It is best to find a way to hide it from the elderly... I agreed with He Antang's arrangement, but I still couldn't help but remind him of the issues that need to be paid attention to.

After all, although they are all comrades-in-arms, Lu Zhihang and I live in the same city, we get closer and better at each other's family situation.

I know, I know. He Antang obviously thought I was naughty at this moment, so he got up and pulled Wu Zhongjun and left the ward.

He and Wu left, we were able to lie on the bed with peace of mind.

When I learned about Lu Zhihang's death before, I felt at a loss in the face of the sudden situation.

And now the appearance of He Antang makes me feel somewhat stable and relied.

It was still my comrades who depended on Ah... Zhihang's funeral was handled first. As I thought about it, I fell asleep unconsciously

When I woke up, I looked out the window and found it was dark. After looking at the phone that was charging at the bedside, I realized that I had overslept. This time I actually slept until after six o'clock in the evening.

Hearing a sound in the ward, two brothers arranged by Yan Guang walked in from outside the aisle.

After talking to them for a few words, I realized that the two of them were addicted to smoking and were worried that smoking in the ward would not help me rest, so I went to the aisle to smoke.

In addition, seeing that I was sleeping heavily, I did not disturb my sleep at lunch, but took turns going out to the hospital cafeteria to get some time.

When I talked to the two of them about having dinner, I realized that I was already hungry at this moment

So I got up and discussed the issue of having supper with the two

The food in the hospital canteen was not my taste. The two brothers mentioned that there was a casserole stew restaurant outside the hospital that was very famous, so I decided to go to dinner with them.

Because my body has actually recovered, but due to Yan Guang's kindness, I decided to stay in the hospital for two more days to observe

So the nurse on duty doesn't care if I go out for dinner

Therefore, I walked out of the inpatient department with my two brothers and came from the back door to the alley behind the hospital.

The casserole stew restaurant mentioned by the two brothers is located in this alley

When I arrived at the stew restaurant, I found that the business here was quite prosperous. Many patients and relatives who were hospitalized in the hospital and were not used to the food in the hospital chose to come here for dinner.

Because the alley is narrow, urban management personnel rarely visit here

The hotel owner took advantage of the convenience of the location and placed the tables and chairs directly on the alleys and streets.

When the two of us arrived, there were no empty seats, but after we were sure we were going to have a meal, the boss immediately arranged for the friend to set us up a simple dining table along the street. My two brothers and I dragged three chairs and sat down.

One of the characteristics of the casserole stew restaurant is that the dishes are served quickly. The three of us ordered the dishes. Before the two brothers finished smoking a cigarette, the dishes ordered were served by the waiter like a run-off rack.

I was indeed quite hungry at this moment. When I saw the food coming, I immediately started to eat.

I kept my head stuffed and just sat in the casserole dish. I slapped three bowls of rice before I filled my stomach.

After lunch, the two brothers accompanying each other were not as hungry as me, so they each ordered a bottle of beer, drinking and eating, smoking and chatting.

I was filling my stomach at this moment and asked for a bottle of beer. I was drinking and chatting with the two of them while I was having fun.

The two brothers in front of me are really not very educated, and the content of the chat is nothing more than some grudges and glorious experiences of each other.

After chatting for a few words, I was quite bored, and then stopped talking, just listening to their respective boastings.

But for this reason, I was bored and vaguely felt the gaze from a certain direction monitored.

Or because of my more than ten years of journalism, I have developed an unusual sensitivity without realizing it.

Especially when secretly interviewing and following up certain news clues, this sensitivity can often turn me into danger.

That unique sense of crisis at this moment made me alert

I watched the eyes without showing any expression.

Apart from the tables of customers eating in groups, I did not find any doubts nearby.

But when I expanded Yu Guang's range, I quickly found the source of my nervousness.

The alley is two or thirty meters away from me in the alley. At the door of a small shop, a person wearing sunglasses leaning against the counter of the convenience store pretending to be on his cell phone attracted my attention.

This man is moderately tall, about 1.70 meters away, wearing a loose sports top with his own hat and loose sports pants on his lower body. I can't tell his true body shape

The hat on his robe is covered with sunglasses, so he can't see his appearance clearly

But it is obvious that the line of sight I felt before was radiating from this person's position

After determining the other party's position, I lowered my head, picked up the wine glass and sipped...

Because of my professional relationship, I offended a lot of people at the beginning.

Because of the exposure of the black-hearted food processing chain, I was once slashed in the street; I was also rewarded by the underworld for exposing the scandal of collusion between officials and businessmen; over the past decade, the dangers I have experienced have emerged one after another.

However, thanks to my cousin Yan Guang's reputation in the underworld, the extensive interpersonal relationships of many comrades and the private protection of the group leaders, I finally managed to deal with it.

And the past two years of scrambling in the editorial department has also made me live a rare two-year peaceful life.

At this moment, someone who was secretly following me appeared again, which surprised me quite

Continue to drink and chat... There is someone watching us there... I naturally took out a cigarette from the cigarette box placed by the two brothers on the table, lit it as if nothing had happened, and whispered to remind the two of them.

Although the two brothers are just the gangsters under Yan Guang, they have been in the road for several years with Yan Guang. Moreover, they are not stupid, otherwise Yan Guang would not have arranged for them to accompany me in the hospital.

At this moment, when I heard my low warning, I reacted, but like me, there was no abnormality on the surface, and I still kept talking and laughing.

After two or three minutes, I called the guy to come and check the bill

After paying, I asked the two to leave

When I got up, I noticed from the corner of my eye that the person who was sunglasses also put away his cell phone...

Not as expected

When my two brothers and I walked towards the back door of the hospital in the opposite direction, the man in the sunglasses immediately left the door of the convenience store and followed him from afar

Don't look back, that guy caught us... I didn't say anything, one of the two brothers whispered to remind me and the other person

What to do? Could he follow us? Another person asked me about my opinion

There are three of us who are afraid that he will be a dick! After a while, when he arrives at the hospital, if he dares to follow in, he will turn around at the door and clean up him. The brother who spoke out first made a decision immediately.

In a sense, Yan Guang’s two gangsters’ insights and thinking are far less than mine

But in comparison, these two people have much more experience than me in dealing with the current situation

So when the first person made the decision, I nodded slightly and recognized his decision

It is only 40 meters away from the restaurant to the back door of the hospital.

In a moment, we arrived at the back door

There was originally a guard duty room on the back door, but when the three of us arrived at the door, there was no one in the duty room.

Thinking that it was the meal time, I guess the guard should go to the cafeteria for a meal

Seeing this situation, the two brothers signaled each other and quickly hid their bodies to the left side of the gate, and I continued to move forward.

After walking for about ten steps, I heard a sound coming from behind

I quickly turned around and saw a man in sunglasses being tightly held by a brother from behind, while the other brother reached out and grabbed the man in sunglasses' clothes without hesitation.

Let me go! What are you going to do? The sunglasses man shouted in a hurry

It doesn't matter if this shout is made, my two brothers and I were shocked when we heard the sound.

Because at this moment what the person in the sunglasses made was a woman's voice...

The brother holding the man's clothes with sunglasses reached out and took off his sunglasses

Although the sky was dark at this moment, a beautiful woman's face was still accurately reflected in front of me.

Curved eyebrows, big watery eyes

Melon-shaped face, dimples, and a little black mole on the top of the right eyebrow is quite obvious, but it inadvertently adds to the charm of this woman.

I quickly remembered the appearance of a woman in my mind

I want to ask what you want to do? After the brother in front of the woman found that it was actually a woman who was following him, he signaled the brother behind to let go.

After all, the other party is a woman. Even if you have bad intentions to the three of us, the 3-to-1 ratio, plus the absolute gender advantage

He could judge that the woman in front of him could not pose a threat to the three of us at all

Since it does not constitute a threat, there is no need for the brothers behind to control the other party's actions from the rear.

Moreover, a man hugging a woman tightly from behind may cause misunderstandings by passers-by.

You have been following us from wherever you eat. What do you want to do? The brother in front of the woman asked sternly after his companion let go of his hands.

This road is not yours... Where can I go? Why do you say I will follow you? The beautiful woman is not afraid at all at this moment, and she opens her mouth to retort

Where were we sitting for dinner, where were you pretending to call in the convenience store, but you kept observing us, we checked out and left, you stopped talking immediately, and then followed us and turned into the back door of the hospital. You immediately accelerated and followed in. What do you think your behavior is not a tracking? Also, when is it? You are still wearing a pair of sunglasses, do you think we are fools? Seeing that the brother in front of the woman widened his eyes and was about to give the woman a look, I quickly questioned the woman and walked over to stop him.

After all, this is the back door of the hospital. Although there is no one at this moment, it is possible that someone will pass by soon.

And I don't want to be noticeable if there is any physical conflict with this beautiful woman here
