Chapter 214: Trapped Beast
"Nothing is impossible! It's me!" Zhou Yi shouted, "I was right there when you called Qian Hongxing the second time! What you said on the phone was right, the police were right next to Qian Hongxing! I heard every word you said clearly!"
This sentence completely dispelled Long Zhiqiang's doubts. Ever since he heard the gunshot at the dock, he had been wondering when the police had targeted him.
From the moment he targeted Qian Hongxing and his son, almost everything was within his plan except for the colleague who suddenly showed up. Why didn't the van explode? Why were Qian Lailai and Su Jun silenced and their bodies buried? Why were the police still able to find them?
Zhou Yi's words made him feel the horror of the police for the first time. It turned out that this little policeman had been there since then.
No wonder I always felt that Hongcheng was a bit evil. It turned out that it was this policeman in front of me who was haunting me.
Zhou Yi knew that his words had worked.
He immediately shouted, "If I can find you, I can also find Fu Baoguo's whereabouts!"
The capital crime that Long Zhiqiang committed is enough for him to be shot ten times.
Conventional negotiations were of no use to him.
Meng Dahai alone is already refusing to cooperate and is ready to die, let alone the main culprit Long Zhiqiang.
So we have to use a chip that can attract his attention.
The bargaining chip can only be Fu Baoguo.
Because on the way here just now, Captain Liu from Luohe called Zhou Yi.
Several important pieces of information are mentioned.
First of all, there is Hao Qiang. He left Luohe in the second year after Yu Changshun was imprisoned. His whereabouts are unknown and he was finally directly defined as a missing person.
Then there was the key woman called "Nana" by Long Zhiqiang. Captain Liu found a person who highly matched the description. Her name was Wang Hongna, who was the same age as Hao Qiang and two years younger than Yu Changshun. The three were neighbors, and Wang Hongna and Hao Qiang were classmates from elementary school to junior high school.
Wang Hongna was also the victim of a murder in 1977.
Two years after Yu Changshun was imprisoned, Wang Hongna's body was found in a river.
After investigation, the police found one of Wang Hongna's shoes stuck in the reeds on the shore more than 200 meters upstream from where her body was found.
Due to the remote location and the fact that footprints of a second person other than Wang Hongna were found on the shore, it was determined that Wang Hongna was murdered.
Subsequent investigations revealed that Wang Hongna was three months pregnant. After investigating Wang Hongna's interpersonal relationships, the police identified one person.
It’s Fu Baoguo.
After interrogation, Fu Baoguo admitted that Wang Hongna's child was his, but he was just playing with Wang Hongna and did not really want to marry her.
However, Fu Baoguo refused to admit that he killed Wang Hongna, but he could not provide a valid alibi.
Finally, Fu Baoguo was sentenced to prison because of sufficient criminal motives.
Zhou Yi knew that criminal investigation in the 1970s was too primitive and the judicial system was imperfect, so it was common for such cases to be hastily concluded.
When Captain Liu explained the situation to him, he had already remembered that he had seen the case file in his previous life. However, to him at that time, that file was almost half a century old, and due to improper storage, it was seriously moldy. He only took a closer look at it when he found it and cleaned it.
At the time, I felt that the case was handled too hastily, but I didn't think much about it.
But when Captain Liu talked about the whole story of the case, Zhou Yi suddenly had a different guess.
There was no such person as Hao Qiang in the original case investigation.
From what Captain Liu learned, it can be seen that Hao Qiang left Luohe in 1976 and has been missing ever since.
Naturally, it is impossible to come into the police's investigation sight.
But leaving doesn't mean you can't come back.
If he had been kicked in the face by Fu Baoguo because of Wang Hongna, then when he came back two years later and found that the woman he loved was pregnant with Fu Baoguo's child, his heart would definitely collapse.
What's more, Yu Changshun was sent to jail for helping him vent his anger.
In his grief and anger, he was very likely to have taken extreme action and killed Wang Hongna.
This also explains why the first crime scene was located in a remote area and had two people's footprints.
Only an acquaintance, and someone with a special relationship, could have invited Wang Hongna to such a place and committed the murder.
Fu Baoguo is just an unlucky scapegoat.
After Hao Qiang killed Wang Hongna, it was impossible for him to stay in the local area and he would definitely escape overnight. In addition, he had no family, so it was almost as if he had never appeared, and no one would think that this matter was related to him.
Killing the woman he once loved with his own hands was the first step for Hao Qiang to become Long Zhiqiang.
Perhaps after becoming Long Zhiqiang, he once secretly returned to Luohe City, but he certainly did not find Fu Baoguo.
Because Captain Liu said that Fu Baoguo's family also suffered a miserable end. After Fu Baoguo went to jail, his father was implicated and investigated.
A deputy mayor who allows his son to do evil and act tyrannically cannot have a clean record himself, so he was soon sent to jail.
Both father and son were imprisoned, and the Fu family became a pariah in Shilin Town, and soon moved away.
What Zhou Yi had just bet on was that Long Zhiqiang didn't know the whereabouts of Fu Baoguo, and in fact it was true.
Because Captain Liu said that Fu Baoguo died of illness in prison two years after he was imprisoned. Since his family could not be contacted, his body was kept in the hospital morgue for a full four months before his family came to take it away for cremation.
Only prisons and hospitals have records of these things. Long Zhiqiang, a criminal who hides in the dark all day long, has no way of finding out.
"Long Zhiqiang! Let the child go, I will be your hostage! I will take you to find Fu Baoguo!" Zhou Yi raised his hands and shouted.
Chen Yan was shocked when he heard this and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Zhou Yi. Zhou Yi responded with a very slight nod.
Chen Yan understood instantly that Long Zhiqiang could no longer be captured alive.
Zhou Yi is willing to risk his own life to buy him a moment to kill Long Zhiqiang.
Because after Long Zhiqiang took the child hostage, he was squatting, holding the child tightly with one hand and pointing a gun at the child's head with the other hand. His body, especially his head, was always hiding behind the child.
Chen Yan was confident in his marksmanship. It would not be difficult to hit Long Zhiqiang, but the difficulty lay in that if he could not kill him instantly with one shot, the hostage would be in danger.
There are only two parts of the body that can be shot to kill someone: the brain and the heart.
Zhou Yi did this to create an opportunity for him, to create a moment when Long Zhiqiang's head was exposed to the muzzle of his gun.
When Zhou Yi nodded weakly to Chen Yan, he saw that Chen Yan's eyes changed. He had seen that look before, the look when he was shooting at the shooting range.
He knew that Chen Yan had understood his intention.
At this moment, they were unable to communicate in any way, and it all depended on the tacit understanding and understanding of both parties.
Zhou Yi put the gun on the roof of the car, indicating that he was not a threat, and then prepared to walk towards Long Zhiqiang.
"Don't move!" Unexpectedly, Long Zhiqiang stared at him with a sinister look and said, "Call Fu Baoguo right now. I want to hear his voice before I believe what you said is true!"
This guy! Too cunning and insidious!
Zhou Yi suddenly discovered that Long Zhiqiang looked at him in a very strange way, not like that of a human.
It looked more like a trapped beast struggling to death, but it still stared at the hunter's throat.
In an instant, Zhou Yi seemed to understand Long Zhiqiang's intention.
He wants to drag himself down with him!
From the moment Chen Yan fired the first shot at the dock, Long Zhiqiang knew that the police would set up a tight net to catch him.
Using Yu Changshun to escape into the mountains is his only way to survive.
He was extremely cautious and tried to continue to play the role of the manipulator in this cat-and-mouse game, attempting to mislead the police in various ways.
But he could not have imagined that a young policeman had been secretly fighting with him from the very beginning, and even dug up his humiliating past that no one in the world knew about except Yu Changshun.
He knew very well that he couldn't escape today and the police would definitely not let him go.
There is only one possibility in the end of the stalemate, that is, you will be exhausted and killed the moment you reveal a flaw!
He and Zhou Yi were both very clear about the result, so Zhou Yi confirmed from the look in his eyes that Long Zhiqiang wanted to drag him down with him.
He has killed too many children, and killing an unrelated passerby child will not satisfy him at all.
Only by killing himself will he feel that his death is worthwhile!
But he didn't shoot now because Chen Yan's gun was pointed at him. As long as the muzzle of his gun left the child's head, he might be shot. After all, it was impossible for an adult to hide behind a five or six-year-old child.
"Okay! But I need to get my phone from the car, is that okay?" Zhou Yi lifted the sides of his open coat to indicate that he didn't have a phone on him.
"Hurry up! I'll give you a minute to call!"
Zhou Yi took two steps forward, bent down and took out his mobile phone from the storage box on the passenger seat.
While taking the mobile phone, Zhou Yi said: Wang Hongna was killed by Hao Qiang.
There was only one person in the car, Yu Changshun.
When Yu Changshun heard this, his mind buzzed and went blank.
The next second, Zhou Yi got out of the car, holding up the phone in his hand.
"Turn on hands-free!" Long Zhiqiang shouted.
Zhou Yi pressed the hands-free button and then dialed a number slowly.
Wu Yongcheng's number.
Just as the waiting tone on his cell phone began to beep, Zhou Yi said, "Long Zhiqiang, Nana said she misses you very much."
Long Zhiqiang sneered: "Bullshit, she's a bitch!"
These words were not just meant for Long Zhiqiang alone.
To Long Zhiqiang, this Nana was Hu Ying.
But to another person, this Nana is Wang Hongna.
When Yu Changshun heard Long Zhiqiang's words, he reacted immediately, his blood boiling and he rushed out of the car.
He yelled, "Hao Qiang!"
His hands were handcuffed behind his back, so when he rushed out of the car, he immediately lost his balance and crashed headfirst onto the asphalt road.
He tried to get up, but he had no support and could only lie on the ground in despair. He turned his head and roared at Long Zhiqiang with blood on his face: "You heartless bastard! You will die a horrible death!"
…
When Wu Yongcheng saw that it was Zhou Yi calling, he immediately pressed the call button.
I didn't even have time to call out.
A gunshot was heard simultaneously on the phone and not far ahead!
