Wang Meng's family lives in the core CBD of the capital, not far from here.
That's why Chen Rou could faintly hear police sirens outside the window after she hung up the phone.
Ah Yuan always wakes up early. He went to bed early yesterday, so of course he woke up even earlier today. He was hungry and was having his morning milk.
The little guy was sullen and seemed to feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
He could be considered grumpy when he wakes up; he'll only nurse when Chen Rou holds him, and if the nanny tries to pick him up, he'll whine, "Aww~"
The baby is unhappy today and won't let anyone touch him except his mother.
Because she lived in an apartment building with an elevator, although it wasn't very high, she could still see the surroundings. Hearing the police sirens getting louder and louder, Chen Rou got up to see if she could see anything through the window. She wondered if several police cars had arrived, if they were just taking people away without arrest, or if a search team had come. In her experience, taking people away without arrest was just a formality, and they could be released afterward.
But if there are still officers from the investigation department, it proves that the higher-ups attach great importance to and are paying close attention to this case.
However, because of the buildings blocking the view, she could only see that a section of the road was blocked in the distance and that traffic police were directing traffic, but she could not see the actual situation on site.
Although it wasn't the first place to be bustling with activity, Chen Rou guessed that the authorities were probably serious today, searching documents and even safes. Moreover, Wang Meng was truly daring, because he actually resisted the law and escaped.
In the future, criminals will generally admit defeat when the police come to their door, but not these days. This is mainly because surveillance is not as advanced, and files are all paper-based, making them easy to forge, and the cost of escaping is relatively low.
Moreover, Wang Meng was very familiar with the public security system. As soon as he saw someone from the evidence department wearing white gloves, he knew something was wrong. His identity was fake, and his old identity was linked to a murder case. Of course, he would run away when the police were arresting people early in the morning.
As long as he can escape, with his sister around, it's like meat rotting in a pot. At worst, he can go to another place to hide for a while before coming back. Even if it's someone else, he'll still be the number one boss in Beijing.
But of course, if the higher-ups really take action, how could he possibly escape?
Chen Rou deduced that he was planning to flee by observing the number of traffic police and public security officers and plainclothes officers at the intersection.
They knew he couldn't escape, because at the intersection of the street next to the restaurant, there was a plainclothes officer in a black jacket every two meters. When they received the news that the suspect was trying to escape, everyone was watching every possible intersection or gap in the wall that the suspect might be trying to escape from. Everyone was watching.
About seven or eight minutes later, after receiving news that the arrests had been completed, the plainclothes officers headed towards the crime scene. There were forty or fifty people on just one street, meaning that no fewer than three hundred people participated in the arrests today.
That also means that not only the public security police, but also the armed police were mobilized.
Under normal circumstances, those captured in such a display of force would definitely be punished severely.
Ah Yuan had just finished feeding and let go of the nipple when he saw seven or eight police cars rushing past downstairs.
He looked at his mother and said, "Oh?"
Chen Rou spoke to her son in Mandarin: "That's a policeman, catching bad guys, the police catch bad guys."
A-Yuan didn't understand this, but he really liked the little colored lights that spun around on the police car, because his sister had the same thing on the toy gun she gave him. It would go "biubiu" and make a "woo-woo" sound when you pressed it.
A-Yuan pushed the baby bottle aside and pointed to the door: "Hey, Mang-Mang, Jiao-jiejie."
The girl's house is going to be in complete chaos today; he still wants to go see her.
Chen Rou was coaxing her son when Song Yuanchao came in. She then said to A Yuan, "Take a bath and brush your teeth first, then you can play."
He then said to Song Yuanchao, "I think the search didn't take long, so there probably wasn't much stuff found?"
Upon hearing the alarm, Song Yuanchao went downstairs. He walked through the park, found a suitable spot to watch the scene.
He explained, "It's not that there aren't many, it's that there are too many. And because a large number of firearms have been discovered, we've only sealed off the area so far. We haven't yet inspected or registered the evidence. Armed police and a special investigation team will be here soon."
Chen Rou said that although there were seven or eight police cars, they were all small cars.
She thought that in this era, although Wang Meng was capable, he couldn't compare to the future underworld boss.
It seems she underestimated his status. Possessing firearms, having the cooperation of the armed police, and the special task force established at the time—this package was provided to big shots like Cheung Tze-keung, Pak Po-shan, and Cheung Chun. He certainly had a worthwhile life.
Sure enough, as Song Yuanchao spoke, truckloads of armed police sped past.
What we just ate was an appetizer; the main course is about to begin.
Chen Rou then asked Song Yuanchao, "How fiercely is Wang Meng resisting? Does he have a wife? What about his children?"
When Wang Meng was first arrested, he was actually quite cooperative. When he came out of his home, he was chatting and laughing with the police. After all, most of the police who came to arrest him had been friends with him before, so he probably just went through the motions.
But who could have imagined that his sister and brother-in-law would suddenly become unresponsive? The police, wearing white gloves and carrying an evidence box, were about to enter his house.
After all, he was a soldier, and he had even been to the battlefield. He was handcuffed, but he ran away as fast as he could.
But he was a scoundrel in the army and had no experience in running away. After running only a few steps, he tripped over his own feet and fell flat on his face.
Although the capital city, unlike Hong Kong, doesn't have ubiquitous reporters sending back reports from the front lines, the spread and development of an event in the capital can be faster and more vivid than in Hong Kong.
After all, the capital city not only has old men who can hang themselves in trees at any time, but also old ladies whose eloquence is even better than that of storytellers.
The next day, when Chen Rou took A Yuan to the park, the news she heard was already secondhand and thirdhand, embellished and old news. But of course, as long as the older women talked about it, many people would still gather around to listen.
