Li Lin was not sure and finally decided to continue hiding it.
It was at this time that the suspect was pushed out of the operating room by medical staff.
When the stretcher passed by Li Lin, he caught a glimpse of the old ghost's true appearance...thin face, protruding cheekbones, gray hair...
No one could have imagined that this little old man would kill two innocent civilians without blinking an eye.
Seeing that the situation was temporarily stable, the police officers each performed their duties and waited at the main entrance and exit of the hospital. At this time, the corridor gradually became deserted. Wei Shuan walked up to Li Lin with a smile and stretched out his hand to shake Li Lin's hand again.
"County Magistrate Li, have you been to Yunling before? ...Brother, I have really heard of your great name a long time ago, and I have long wanted to make friends with you. How about this, let's go to dinner later and have a good chat. Would you do me the honor?"
Li Lin smiled and declined, "Let's do it another day. I have to go back to Shannan soon. Besides, today is not a good time to drink and chat."
"Brother Li Lin, don't misunderstand. It's just a quick meal. Look...it's getting dark. You have to eat anyway."
After that, Wei Shuan took out his phone and started to make arrangements, "Hello... I'm Wei Shuan... Um, arrange a room, four cold dishes, four hot dishes, and two soups... Yes, we have a distinguished guest, so we must make solid arrangements!"
Li Lin originally wanted to take Zhang Yupei downstairs to have a quick bite, then stay in the hospital for a while before returning to Shannan County. He was about to refuse Wei Shuan's invitation again, but he heard Wei Shuan's tone become serious and mysterious.
He said, "Chief Li, please don't refuse. Having a meal is one thing, but I want to take this opportunity to discuss this case with you... My staff said that they found a mobile phone in the suspect's bag... It was encrypted... We are working hard to crack it, and I believe there will be results soon. I think that this inconspicuous old man actually uses an encrypted phone, so there must be very important information hidden in the phone!"
After saying this, he kept glancing at Li Lin, trying to infer his psychology from the expression on his face.
After observing for a moment, he could not see any disturbance on Li Lin's face.
Li Lin didn't expect that Wei Shuan actually had such an important clue.
He glanced at Wu Xiongfei who was performing surveillance mission not far away... and found that he was concentrating on staring at the suspect Lao Gui's ward.
It seems that Wu Xiongfei did not deliberately conceal the information, but simply did not have the clue.
After all, this is someone else's territory. They have a large number of police officers, so it is reasonable that they can obtain important clues.
But it is also possible that Wei Shuan is being mysterious. He knows that Li Lin cannot refuse anything related to the case...so he uses this as a bargaining chip just to ask Li Lin to talk to him alone.
This trick...is so fucking childish!
If there really is an important clue, even if Wei Shuan doesn't tell you tonight, he must report it to the joint command center of the three locations tomorrow. Does he need to reveal it in advance?
But Wei Shuan was right about one thing: people are made of iron and rice is made of steel, and rice must be eaten. But who to eat with and how to eat it is the choice of Li Lin, not Wei Shuan.
"Director Wei, don't you want to chat? Come on, I'll treat you to a meal in the cafeteria downstairs of the hospital, and we can talk while we eat!"
After saying that, Li Lin smiled calmly and walked straight towards the elevator.
Wei Shuan was still in shock and stood there in a daze, at a loss as to what to do.
Who is he? He is the deputy director of the Yunling City Public Security Bureau, a powerful and well-known figure... and he is asked to eat in the hospital cafeteria?
You must be kidding!
Wei Shuan refused in his heart, he couldn't afford to lose face like this.
But looking at Li Lin's determined back, his body still followed him obediently... He comforted himself that eating was not the purpose anyway, and drinking was not the purpose either. The most important thing was to get closer to Li Lin... It didn't matter whether they were eating lobster and abalone or in a public canteen. What mattered was who they were eating with!
"Hehehe... County Magistrate Li is really down-to-earth. To tell you the truth, I haven't eaten in a public canteen for 10 to 20 years. It's not that I'm aloof, but there are too many people who know me. If I go to the wrong place, I will soon be surrounded by acquaintances and won't be able to eat well!" Wei Shuan laughed, and his words and deeds showed off his strong influence in Yunling City.
Someone else might have been intimidated. I was surprised that Wei Shuan had such a strong network of contacts that he was surrounded by acquaintances even when he was having a meal.
But Li Lin just smiled and said, "Don't worry, Director Wei. We are going to the canteen of the inpatient department. Those who eat there are all patients. Those who are a little bit capable have been hospitalized in the province. Most of those who are hospitalized in this city are ordinary people. I guess few of them know you, the leader of the Municipal Public Security Bureau."
"Oh...it's the inpatient department cafeteria, haha...it's nice..."
Wei Shuan smiled on the surface, but he felt as if he had eaten a fly in his heart. The thought of him eating with a group of ordinary patients was unbearable.
But now that he was here, if he backed down, Li Lin would probably have a bad impression of him. He made up his mind and gritted his teeth to comfort himself, just like a leading cadre going to the grassroots to experience life, eat the people's food and mingle with ordinary people... He would ask someone to take a few photos, go back and ask the news department to write a report, publish it on the intranet, and maybe it would attract the attention of the provincial department and even the leaders of Yanjing.
Eat the people's food and get along with the people...He has a high position and active thinking, but he forgets that he is also a commoner.
