Liu Changhe slowly pushed open the car door and got out steadily. He first exchanged greetings and pleasantries with several familiar county leaders with a serious yet warm expression.
Immediately afterwards, he turned around quickly, his expression serious and focused, and began to direct the police officers present.
He waved his hands forcefully, issuing continuous instructions: "We must strengthen security! Absolutely no unauthorized personnel are allowed to set foot on the scene!"
Upon receiving the order, the police officers immediately sprang into action. Working closely together, they formed a solid defensive line, firmly keeping the reporters who had come seeking information outside the cordon.
However, these reporters, having waited so long for the protagonist of the incident to appear, were naturally not going to give up easily.
Although they couldn't get into the scene, they still refused to give up. They raised their cameras and recording equipment, which were like long lenses, and surged towards Liu Changhe, quickly surrounding him.
Faced with this sudden turn of events, Liu Changhe remained calm and composed.
He straightened his back, his sharp and determined gaze sweeping over the reporters around him.
At this moment, numerous reporters rushed forward, thrusting their microphones at Liu Changhe and bombarding him with questions.
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Liu Changhe, the Public Security Bureau Chief of Shang County? What are your views on this serious case that has occurred in our county?"
"Dear Director Liu, what is the current progress of the investigation into this case? Has the police launched an effective operation to apprehend the perpetrators?"
"Hello, Director Liu, I'm a reporter from our county TV station. I've heard that this is the first serious crime in our county, and that one of the perpetrators was reportedly shot dead on the spot. Is this true?"
A barrage of questions came flooding in, leaving one overwhelmed and unsure where to even begin answering.
Faced with this chaotic situation, Liu Changhe shook his head helplessly, then decisively waved his hand and shouted loudly.
"Please be quiet, everyone!"
His loud and authoritative voice instantly pierced through the noise, gradually calming the previously chaotic scene.
After everyone quieted down, Liu Changhe cleared his throat and continued speaking.
"Friends, the police are still conducting an intensive investigation into the serious and heinous criminal murder case that occurred last night."
As the case has not yet been fully solved, and in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, it is indeed inconvenient to disclose too many specific details to the media at this stage.
However, please rest assured that we will definitely choose an appropriate time to hold a special press conference, and everyone is welcome to come and participate in the reporting.
We hope everyone can be patient until then.
After a brief pause, Liu Changhe surveyed his surroundings, his gaze firm and composed. Then, he lowered his voice and added.
"Furthermore, I would like to make a solemn statement here, which is also the only information I can disclose to everyone at this time—in this operation, we did not kill the criminal suspect, but only seriously injured him."
Therefore, please do not believe rumors or spread misinformation, so as not to cause unnecessary damage to the image of the public security organs.
It is worth mentioning that, after emergency treatment by medical staff, the suspect has regained consciousness and has begun to be interrogated.
I believe that it won't be long before the whole case comes to light and the truth is revealed to the world.
Just then, as if he had suddenly thought of something, Liu Changhe abruptly stopped himself from saying what was about to come out.
He knew that appropriately revealing some key information to these journalists could effectively promote the widespread dissemination of the news.
However, if one is too outspoken and tells them everything one knows without reservation, it may lead to a series of unpredictable negative consequences.
It should be noted that these reporters are best at making unfounded accusations and taking things out of context.
Even if I only say a few extra words, who knows how they will eventually distort those words?
Liu Changhe's purpose in coming here was very clear: to do exactly what Xiao Weiguo had instructed him to do—to make an example of someone and startle them.
Therefore, the few words I just said are enough, and there is really no need to elaborate further.
Just at this critical moment, Hu Haidong led the last batch of urgently dispatched police officers to the scene.
Hu Haidong strode up to Liu Changhe, stood at attention, gave a standard salute, and then reported loudly.
"Reporting to Director Liu, all available personnel have arrived at their designated locations. Please issue your next instructions, Director Liu!"
Liu Changhe nodded slightly in approval, and then gave Hu Haidong his instructions.
"Assemble everyone immediately. I will deploy the next action plan."
"Yes!" Hu Haidong responded with a strong voice, then turned around nimbly and ran towards the police officers who had just arrived at the scene to organize everyone to quickly assemble.
Liu Changhe stood quietly in place, showing no intention of avoiding the numerous reporters and onlookers present.
After everyone—including three or four hundred police officers and members of the special operations team—had all assembled, the atmosphere at the scene was solemn and serious.
Liu Changhe walked up to the front of the crowd with a tall and steady figure, his firm gaze sweeping over the faces of everyone.
Liu Changhe adjusted his posture slightly, cleared his slightly hoarse voice, and then shouted loudly in a loud and authoritative voice.
"Comrades! Just last night, a criminal case of extremely heinous nature and with a very significant impact occurred in our city!"
Right inside this apartment building, more than twenty vicious criminals, armed with short-barreled shotguns, were brazenly committing crimes in broad daylight!
Their atrocities resulted in the tragic deaths of many innocent people, and many others suffered varying degrees of harm.
These criminals are so arrogant and lawless; it's an outright provocation against all of us police officers!
It is an outrageous trampling on the moral bottom line of the general public!
Faced with this situation, we must go all out, spare no effort, use every means at our disposal, and rack our brains to come up with all feasible solutions to bring this group of heartless criminals to justice and make them face the full force of the law!
Otherwise, we would be unworthy of the sacred police uniform we wear, and we would be letting down the people's high expectations and full trust in us!
Everyone agrees, isn't that the truth?
Liu Changhe's speech was extremely inspiring, and the police officers below were all filled with indignation.
"yes!"
Everyone responded loudly in unison.
Liu Changhe nodded in satisfaction and continued.
"Alright, now I will arrange the next steps. All personnel involved in the case, please proceed according to the plan."
