Chapter 16: Policewoman's Testicles Splattered in the Street
At this critical moment, Shen Zhenzhu caught up with him.
Liang Jianguo instinctively gripped the fruit knife, but Shen Zhenzhu rushed over like a madwoman. Just as he was brandishing the knife, she suddenly slammed to the ground and kicked him hard.
Liang Jianguo lost his balance and staggered, wildly waving a fruit knife in his right hand, startling passersby who screamed and fled.
Shen Zhenzhu grabbed his wrist with one hand, caught him off guard with a series of moves, and finally kicked him down with all her might!
"Ahhhh—"
Liang Jianguo collapsed to the ground in agony, still swinging his knife. Taking advantage of his movement, Shen Zhenzhu seized his wrist again and, with all her might, delivered a powerful downward kick using a martial arts technique!
To eliminate pests, you must eradicate them at their root!
"Aaaaaah—" Liang Jianguo was in excruciating pain, rolling around on the ground like a dying shrimp, clutching his groin and howling in agony!
Despite her broken knee, Chen Zhenzhu was determined to cripple this beast who had harmed the young girl!
"Wow, boss, what's wrong with a policewoman getting her balls blown up in the street?!" Lu Ye happened to be looking for a stationery store when he saw this and jumped out of the car, running and saying.
Liang Jianguo was still rolling on the ground when suddenly a strong force forced his arm behind his back. He turned his head and opened his mouth to bite, but the other person's large hand was firmly gripping his jaw. He knew that his jaw would be broken off in the next second.
He quickly shut up.
哢哒.
The handcuffs were firmly fastened to the wrists.
Gu Yanzheng pressed his elbow against the back of Liang Jianguo's neck, and no matter how much Liang Jianguo struggled, he couldn't get up. He remained in a pathetic position with his hands cuffed behind his back and lying face down on the ground.
Shen Zhenzhu threw the fruit knife on the ground and gasped for breath, her hands supporting her knees.
Damn, that can really run.
Fortunately, she can run faster.
Seeing the crowd growing larger, Lu Ye asked anxiously, "What's going on? Is he harassing a woman? He's bleeding there."
Chen Zhenzhu swallowed hard, her fingertips trembling slightly as she pointed into the distance.
"What do you mean?" Lu Ye asked again.
Gu Yanzheng glanced in the direction of the fruit shop and, as if on cue, asked, "You think he's a suspect in the dismemberment case?"
“…wise…” Shen Zhenzhu gave a thumbs up. She had been holding her breath and teasing Liang Jianguo when she chased after him, and now her throat was burning and she felt particularly uncomfortable.
Her face was as red as a pink rose, and the base of her neck was also pink. She was still not out of breath.
"Walk a few steps before we talk." Gu Yanzheng raised his chin, and Chen Zhenzhu struggled to get up and strolled along the roadside with her hands on her hips.
"Ah!! It hurts... I'm bleeding... I'm bleeding, I'm not a man anymore." Liang Jianguo struggled a few more times, realizing that the police officers who arrested him were very strong, and said painfully, "She's gone crazy, she suddenly kicked me. Take me to the hospital quickly, my manhood is killing me. I still want to get married and have children."
Gu Yanzheng stared down at him coldly and said, "You dare to leave after attacking a police officer with a knife?"
"Hey, why are you arresting people so casually!" Old Huang got off the back of a passerby's motorcycle and said hurriedly, "You can check work permits if you want, but even if someone doesn't have a work permit, they have a letter of introduction, so it's the same!"
"That's right, why are you arresting me!" Liang Jianguo slumped to the roadside in a disheveled state, his crotch wet, handcuffed to the iron railing and unable to move. He turned around and said, "You crippled me, I'm not finished with you... Heh... You just wait!"
Lu Ye interrupted him: "Stop talking nonsense. You run away just because she chased you? You wouldn't be this panicked if you didn't have a criminal record."
Shen Zhenzhu stopped in her tracks and realized that Liang Jianguo was just as she had analyzed; he had a very strong mentality and could still argue even after being arrested.
Liang Jianguo's eyes were filled with panic. Facing Shen Zhenzhu, who was a head shorter than him, he felt a great sense of dread. He kept shouting to himself to bolster his courage, and the adrenaline made him temporarily forget the pain.
Old Huang took out the train ticket he had found, shook it out, and handed it to Chen Zhenzhu, saying, "How could you not run? She needs to catch her train; it's almost time. You've really gotten yourself into big trouble. You're such a bad girl, you're really not suited to be a public servant—"
"The Municipal Public Security Bureau's criminal investigation is in progress. Did I give you permission to interrupt?" Gu Yanzheng frowned and interrupted Lao Huang, saying, "Let her speak!"
Old Huang's face was slapped hard, and he took a step back with a grim expression, glaring at the culprit, Chen Zhenzhu, with his lips tightly pressed together.
“Captain Gu, I’ve made a discovery,” Shen Zhenzhu said. “I smelled a strong stench of blood in the stationery store next to the fruit shop.”
Old Huang snorted coldly. How come he didn't smell it? They're so used to taking on jobs that they even want to do the work of police dogs?
"You suspect it's related to the dismemberment case?"
Regardless of his thoughts, Shen Zhenzhu flattered him, saying, "That's right! Captain Gu is brilliant!"
Her face was still flushed, her eyes brimming with trust, and she met Gu Yanzheng's gaze with unwavering confidence: "I also found traces of blood in the corner of the stairs. His girlfriend, Zhou Feiming, might be an accomplice. Please go and apprehend her immediately!"
Gu Yanzheng rushed to the stationery store, where Zhou Feiming was closing the roller shutter door with a handbag in hand.
“The school is going to close, so I’ll close my shop for a few days too.” She looked pale as she spoke to Cai Duobao and the others beside her.
She turned around and saw the police car parked on the side of the road. Her legs went weak and she knelt down on the ground.
Upon seeing Zhou Feiming arrested, Shen Zhenzhu's knees ached, and she slid out of the Cherokee's back seat. This car has a really high chassis.
The stationery store was crowded and cluttered with items, and the shelves, lined up one after another, contained not only study guides and stationery but also a lot of toys.
Gu Yanzheng glanced at the place where the celebrity cards were stored and was about to go upstairs when Chen Zhenzhu shouted, "Be careful, there's blood here."
Gu Yanzheng lowered his head and carefully examined a dried, blackened mark the size of a red bean in the crevice on the far right of the steps. If not for the reminder, it would easily be mistaken for an ink stain or other dirt.
He gestured, and Lu Ye went up to search around and came back down: "Report, no murder weapon or bloodstains were found."
Gu Yanzheng glanced at Chen Zhenzhu, who said confidently, "I can smell it, it's true!"
Gu Yanzheng took a few steps up and looked at the second-floor living quarters. The bedside lamps, beds, and floors were all very clean. It was hard to imagine that this was a dismemberment scene.
“Boss, it would be troublesome if we arrested the wrong person. Why are we making such a big fuss?” Zhou Chuanxi walked in from the door, with three or four police cars parked behind him.
Lu Ye looked at Shen Zhenzhu with worry. She was lucky last time, but she might not be this lucky this time.
Old Huang squeezed in with the crowd and saw someone bending down to collect a tiny bloodstain on the steps. He thought to himself, "Maybe it was from a child's nosebleed."
Arresting someone based on this? That's more like a joke.
Seeing Shen Zhenzhu and Gu Yanzheng standing side by side at the stairwell, he figured that Shen Zhenzhu had instructed Captain Gu to arrest the wrong person, and with the accidental injury of innocent civilians in the street, she was definitely in deep trouble. She might even lose her job.
"Call Qin An over to examine the bloodstains," Gu Yanzheng told them. "Even if you have to turn the floor upside down, examine every inch of it."
"Yes." Zhou Chuanxi and Lu Ye exchanged a glance, and then went about their respective tasks as instructed.
"Thank you, Captain Gu." Shen Zhenzhu could not hide the joy in her eyes. She knew for sure that the crime scene was upstairs, and as long as the forensic doctor was there, there would definitely be clues.
Old Huang clutched his heart, sighed, and left.
Ma is about to kowtow to the criminal investigation team.
Seemingly sensing his concern, Gu Yanzheng said, "I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong."
Before Lao Huang could even see his expression, Gu Yanzheng started talking to other colleagues.
"Your nose needs to work its magic," Lu Ye said to Chen Zhenzhu, then went out to look for clues and witnesses, muttering to himself, "Where did you hide the murder weapon?"
Fearing she would damage the scene on the second floor, Shen Zhenzhu climbed a few steps and peered around. Sure enough, it was exactly the same as what she had seen in the Heavenly Eye's retrospective.
Cai Jingjing was murdered right next to us, separated by only one wall!
She gritted her teeth as she got down, also wondering where the murder weapon had been hidden. Captain Gu and his team had searched for two days without finding it; perhaps it was hidden in a very secluded place, or perhaps it was simply in the dark.
Ta-ta-ta.
Shen Zhenzhu turned around sharply and saw Zhang Xiaopang fiddling with the toy car's wind-up mechanism at the door: "Don't come in."
Zhang Xiaopang, Grandpa Zhang's grandson, threw two yuan onto the shelf upon hearing this, then pouted and continued twisting the toy car. He was just about to buy a car when he was suddenly chased out by a group of adults—he hadn't paid yet!
Ta-ta-ta.
Ta-ta-ta.
Chen Zhenzhu's eyes lit up. It turned out that the sound she heard in the Heavenly Eye's retrospective was the sound of a toy car!
Could the murder weapon also be hidden nearby?
She remembered that Liang Jianguo stood here and casually picked up something and threw it.
Her gaze slowly moved across the toy shelf, and suddenly she made a discovery.
"Captain Gu!"
Gu Yanzheng waited at the door for Qin An to arrive, and was explaining the key points of the survey to him when he suddenly heard Chen Zhenzhu's shout. Her tone was crisp and clear, with a hint of excitement.
Gu Yanzheng immediately turned away, while Qin An nudged Lu Ye from behind, thinking that this was the only time in his life he could get a woman to call him and leave at a moment's notice.
Gu Yanzheng entered the stationery store and saw Chen Zhenzhu pointing to the top shelf, next to the Transformers, where there was a pile of imitation foam knives and axes, among which a real short axe with a cold gleam was mixed in.
"Forensic Doctor Qin, over here." Gu Yanzheng stepped aside, and Qin An carefully took the short axe from the evidence bag, saying in a low voice, "This matches our judgment of the murder weapon. There's a notch on the blade. There's blood at the joint of the axe handle. I'll have someone take it back for testing immediately."
Lu Ye said incredulously, "This is truly like finding a needle in a haystack without any effort! Pearl, no, Sister Pearl, from now on you are my sister!"
"Stop talking nonsense, take him back for questioning." Gu Yanzheng said to Shen Zhenzhu, "You come back to the criminal investigation team with me first."
She smiled and said, "Okay."
No dimples.
Gu Yanzheng glanced at her quickly and noticed that her knee was bleeding. It seemed to be in a lot of pain, and she could only force a smile.
Zhou Feiming and Liang Jianguo each got into a police car and were taken to the criminal investigation team first.
When Shen Zhenzhu came out, she saw Cai Duobao and his wife kneeling on the ground and crying, and she couldn't help but feel sad.
Their daughter was murdered next door, and they thought she was staying at a classmate's house. This will likely remain a deep scar for them for a long time to come.
Please accept my condolences.
"Thank you... thank you, police officers." Zhao Mei's eyes were bloodshot, and she could no longer shed tears. She clutched Cai Jingjing's school uniform tightly, wishing she could tear them to pieces.
"You'll pay for this! You'll die a horrible death!" Cai Duobao wasn't much better off; he was being held back, otherwise he would have already rushed up and hacked Liang Jianguo and the others to pieces. As he cursed, he couldn't take it anymore and knelt on the ground, sobbing uncontrollably.
Upon arriving at the Fourth Criminal Investigation Team, Shen Zhenzhu was seated on a pine sofa.
The huge office was used only by a few people under Gu Yanzheng. Located on the fifth floor, the window seats offered a panoramic view of the entire police station, and if your eyesight was good, you could even see her desk with its calendar and enamel mug.
"Have some water first." Gu Yanzheng went into the interrogation room as soon as he returned. He was very busy afterward, but you could tell that his steps were much lighter.
Shen Zhenzhu was about to stand up, but before she could, Gu Yanzheng put down his teacup and left in a hurry.
Shen Zhenzhu held the teacup and slowly drank the water. After resting, she could feel a stinging pain like needles.
Shen Zhenzhu couldn't eat anything and was wondering if she should go to the clinic first, otherwise she would really lose too much blood.
Gu Yanzheng strode over from the doorway, carrying a medicine box, and squatted down in front of Shen Zhenzhu: "Sit down."
Chen Zhenzhu sat down carefully.
Gu Yanzheng gestured with his hand, but ultimately didn't have the nerve to roll up his trouser leg: "Roll it up and let me see."
Chen Zhenzhu said shyly, "I can do it myself."
Gu Yanzheng remained silent, quietly taking out gauze and iodine.
Shen Zhenzhu slowly lifted her trouser leg, exposing her knee, with its scabs cracked open, to Gu Yanzheng.
Shen Zhenzhu's knees were in a terrible state, with the bleeding wounds surrounded by pinkish patches, indicating some inflammation.
Thinking about her reckless behavior over the past two days, Gu Yanzheng was moved by her passion for pursuing the truth.
"Bear with it." Gu Yanzheng tried to be as gentle as possible, using tweezers to hold a cotton ball and gently wiping her knee. After disinfecting it, he applied wound medicine and then wrapped it with gauze.
He had never treated a female comrade's wound before. After tidying up and taking a step back, he couldn't help but feel relieved.
Sigh... Shen Zhenzhu breathed a sigh of relief. Her idol personally bandaging her wounds had really made her too nervous.
"Liang Jianguo fainted from severe pain and was taken to the hospital for examination." Gu Yanzheng suddenly spoke up: "I didn't realize you were so agile, and you run so fast. Do you know what Liang Jianguo used to do? He was a long-distance runner."
Shen Zhenzhu really didn't know that, and her astonished expression made Gu Yanzheng unable to help but laugh.
Chen Zhenzhu fanned her knee with her hand: "His long-distance running explosiveness is definitely not as good as mine... I've loved running since I was a child."
"I can see that." Gu Yanzheng nodded, leaning back on the table behind him. "Where did you learn your kung fu? Martial arts?"
Shen Zhenzhu licked her lips, thinking about the grappling and boxing techniques she learned at the police academy; she really didn't know anything about martial arts. She wondered if Captain Gu had asked unintentionally or if he was interrogating her. After all, very few beat cops could disarm a knife bare-handed.
Gu Yanzheng then asked, "Did you learn it at the Children's Palace?"
Fortunately, Shen Zhenzhu was prepared, otherwise she wouldn't have revealed her martial arts skills in front of him: "It was Uncle Lu next door who taught me. He used to be a physical education teacher and knows traditional martial arts. He said that girls should have some self-defense skills. Later, my mother sent me to the Children's Palace to learn dance, not martial arts."
"Then I remembered it wrong." Gu Yanzheng, having received the answer, also spoke up: "Do you remember Zhang Zhigang, the tricycle driver we caught?"
Shen Zhenzhu also wanted to ask him, "The fingerprints on the severed hand?"
“The fingerprints are his,” Gu Yanzheng said. “He sneaked into the stationery store to steal things and found a bag by Liang Jianguo’s bedside. He took it downstairs, opened it, and found a severed hand inside. He was so scared that he threw it outside. Little did he know that it was right by Cai Duobao’s window.”
Shen Zhenzhu suddenly realized!
No wonder Liang Jianguo said "Why is it a woman?" and "Let you steal from me" after knocking Cai Jingjing unconscious. He must have been lying in wait to kill Zhang Zhigang!
"He hesitated to speak because he was afraid Liang Jianguo would retaliate. After all, he was the only petty thief around here. Once he knew that his severed hand had been stolen, Liang Jianguo would definitely come looking for him."
When Zhang Zhigang was told that the person had been caught, he couldn't wait to confess what he had witnessed at the scene.
With witnesses, physical evidence, and the murder weapon all found at the scene, Liang Jianguo deserved to die.
Gu Yanzheng said, "Fortunately, we caught him in time. If Zhao Jianguo had escaped by train, we would have had to go through a lot of trouble to carry out a joint operation in different locations. It would have been difficult and covered a wide area. If things had gone wrong, this bastard might have gotten away. Now all we have left are his and Zhou Feiming's confessions."
"Team Leader Gu is here too." Lu Ye followed Wu Zhongguo in and said in a loud voice, "Old Wu, from now on this is my Sister Pearl."
Wu Zhongguo took a pen from the drawer and was about to leave when he stopped and Chen Zhenzhu nodded: "I've long admired your name."
Lu Ye raised his chin to Shen Zhenzhu and said with pride, "My sister Zhenzhu is especially fierce, she exploded in the street!"
Wow, a bomb? This policewoman is so fierce!
People kept peeking into the corridor, all wanting to see this "egg-bursting hero."
