When his superior retired, Li Lin, as his secretary, was implicated and demoted to an indefinite secondment as deputy township head in a remote rural town.
With no backing, Li Lin's polit...
Li Lin chased for a few hundred meters and stopped again.
How can we chase the kidnapper if we only know the direction he fled, but we don’t know where he finally went?
Blindly searching will only waste precious time and miss the best time to save people!
He calmed down for two seconds, then took out his cell phone and called Sun Huaide, briefly telling him how Li Lan was kidnapped.
"Brother Sun, I need your help!"
"I will contact my friends at the Public Security Bureau right now. They will do their best to search and rescue Li Lan, and will notify you as soon as there is any news!"
After hanging up the phone, he opened the map on his phone and speculated on the kidnappers' escape route.
The surveillance footage from the teahouse showed that the kidnapper turned right as soon as he left the house without any hesitation.
The direction in which the car disappeared was also due west...
West? Li Lin quickly adjusted the map.
The area within five kilometers to the west is all commercial and downtown, and there is a police booth at every other intersection.
There is no way the kidnappers would hide in a downtown area knowing that they have been exposed.
Because there were numerous surveillance cameras there, and with an unconscious person in tow, he had nowhere to hide!
Five kilometers away is the suburbs, where there are many abandoned factories and unfinished buildings.
The most important thing is that there is little surveillance on the road, and the highway intersection is also there!
Whether the kidnappers want to hide or want to escape using the highway, the suburbs are the perfect choice!
After thinking this through, Li Lin no longer hesitated. He turned the steering wheel and drove into the main lane, ignoring the traffic lights and speeding towards the suburbs.
Speeding all the way!
The traffic police at the intersection were dumbfounded when they saw the speeding car. They quickly took out their walkie-talkies to call the front desk to intercept it, and then they rode their motorcycles to chase after it.
Not long after, a large group of traffic police came after Li Lin...
Li Lin didn't have time to think about all these things, so he called Long Gang again and asked him to find someone to help retrieve the surveillance footage along the way.
When Long Gang heard the urgency of the matter, he agreed immediately.
Soon, Li Lin received a call from the Provincial Public Security Department.
The other party did not seem to want to verify Li Lin's identity and asked directly, "Where are you now?"
"Near the elevated road west of Hanjiang Avenue."
"How can I assist you?"
"Check Han A*****'s movements after he came out of the Spring Tea House."
"Wait a minute... We found out that the place where it appeared most recently was in Xijiao Meihao Community... It was an unfinished community. The car drove in, turned around, and then came out again. Our people are rushing to that place..."
"Thank you very much!"
Beautiful neighborhood! This was exactly where Li Lin speculated that the kidnappers might appear.
Li Lin no longer hesitated and continued to accelerate. Twenty minutes later, he arrived at the gate of the unfinished community.
The tall main gate of the community is overgrown with weeds...
Several fresh tire tracks are particularly eye-catching.
Apart from a few temporary houses, there are no other vendors nearby, which means there is no surveillance to access.
Looking at the direction in which the tire tracks on the ground left, Li Lin opened the map on his phone again.
The map shows that the highway entrance is about one kilometer ahead...
If the robbers got on the highway with Li Lan as a hostage, it would be difficult for the police to intercept them considering Li Lan's safety!
But...there are surveillance cameras everywhere on the highway. Once the kidnappers drive onto the highway, they are walking into a trap!
Judging from the methods used by the kidnapper at the Spring Teahouse, he is undoubtedly a repeat offender and should have strong anti-detection capabilities.
So why did he expose himself to the police?
What exactly does he want to do?
Li Lin fell into deep thought... He couldn't help but look back at the large area of unfinished buildings behind him, like a beautiful community in a dead city...
At this time, a large number of traffic police who were chasing Li Lin arrived.
They took out their batons and ordered Li Lin to squat with his head in his hands...
Li Lin was still thinking, holding his head with his hands and leaning against the car door.
"Are you crazy? Driving dangerously in a crowded city! Wait for the sentencing!"
As they spoke, two traffic policemen stepped forward and prepared to handcuff Li Lin.
A light suddenly flashed in Li Lin's eyes.
He pushed away the traffic policeman who was about to torture him, "Wait a minute! I figured it out!"
"Are you sick? Come back to the bureau and tell me what you have in mind!"
The traffic police was startled by Li Lin's inexplicable behavior and almost dropped the baton in his hand.
It was at this time that the provincial and departmental leaders swarmed in with a large number of police officers!
The traffic police looked at Li Lin in horror at the grand scene, then slowly retreated and kept a safe distance from him.
This person looks a little silly, could he be some unforgivable criminal?
Otherwise, why would so many police be dispatched to arrest him?
The traffic police looked tense and kept a close eye on Li Lin's every move, not daring to act rashly.
At this time, a middle-aged man in a white uniform walked out of the middle police car first.
After he got out of the car, all the police officers got out one after another and followed closely behind him.
Only those with the rank of third-level police inspector and above are qualified to wear the white uniform.
In other words, the man in front of him was at least at the deputy director level or above.
Seeing this important person coming, a group of traffic policemen tactfully stood on both sides and saluted in unison.
The man in the white shirt walked straight up to Li Lin without smiling.
"Comrade Li Lin, just leave this to us. Our police officers will escort you back."
The man looked at Li Lin with a cold gaze and a commanding tone.
"Comrade police, I want to ask you, how do you plan to rescue Minister Li? Do you have any clues?" Li Lin asked seriously.
There was a hint of surprise in the man's eyes. Usually, once they took over a case, no matter who it was, they would not question it in person.
"Our people have found the suspect's vehicle on the highway. It is currently heading towards Pingyang. It can be said that he can't escape even if he had wings. Don't worry!" The man said in a deep voice without showing a trace of impatience.
I thought that telling Li Lin this would dispel Li Lin's doubts, and he would leave obediently and wait for news.
Unexpectedly, Li Lin still asked in a cold voice, "Have you ever thought about what if the person in the car is not a criminal suspect?"
Hmm? The man's gaze towards Li Lin gradually solidified...
At this time, a police officer behind him stood up and said, "We have compared the surveillance footage, and the person driving the car is undoubtedly the suspect!"
Li Lin shook his head. "Are you sure Minister Li is in the car?"
This? Everyone was unable to answer this question and looked at each other in bewilderment.
Li Lin was a little annoyed! Every minute of delay would threaten Li Lan's life.
He ignored the surprised looks of the policemen and resolutely walked towards the beautiful community behind him...
Everyone was dumbfounded!
Damn! Who is this person? How dare he talk to our deputy director like this?
The traffic police were stunned.
The man hesitated for two seconds, and finally waved his hand, ordering all the accompanying police officers to follow Li Lin's footsteps.
