Chapter 142: Key Intelligence Gained at the Cost of Life
Such a keen sense of smell allowed Ning Yutong to quickly predict where Lao Gui wanted to escape after looking at the scene map transmitted by the special police!
The old ghost's footsteps suddenly paused, and his gold teeth flashed a cunning light in the darkness.
"Policewoman?" He sneered, and instead of stepping back, he took half a step forward.
The distance was too close—close enough for him to see the other person's pupils contract, close enough for him to have a chance to snatch the gun!
His right hand hung naturally to his inner thigh, where a hidden pocket was sewn.
He had practiced this move thousands of times, and it was so fast that even the surveillance camera couldn't capture it clearly.
Ning Yutong's pupils suddenly constricted.
The autopsy report of her fiancé from three years ago suddenly flashed through her mind: [Traces of ricin injection were found on the victim's waist... The toxin paralyzed the nerves, and then he was stabbed eight times...]
In a flash, Lao Gui's "ballpoint pen" was already raised into the air.
The tip of the pen flashed with cold light, and it was about to pierce Ning Yutong's neck——
"Bang!"
The butt of the gun hit the old ghost's wrist with tremendous force, and the sound of the bone breaking was clearly audible.
The metal pen tube fell to the ground with a clang, and a few drops of transparent liquid seeped out from the tip of the pen, corroding into tiny bubbles on the cement floor.
"How do you know?!" The old ghost's face was full of horror as he staggered back.
Ning Yutong didn't give him a chance to breathe. The moment her tactical boots crushed the poison needle, she took a quick step forward and grabbed the old ghost's wrist with her left hand like a clamp.
The old ghost resisted violently and elbowed her in the temple, but she dodged it by turning her head.
The two men fought in close combat in the cramped space, and the metal chains of the handcuffs rattled during the fight.
“Click!”
With the sound of a snap, the old man's arms were tied behind his back and he was pinned to the ground. His face scraped against the rough concrete floor as he heard the policewoman's cold voice echo above him: "Didn't you ask me how I knew your fatal blow?"
At this time, other police officers had arrived in time to provide support, and the two male police officers worked together to control Lao Gui.
Everyone pressed the old ghost very hard, with deep hatred, wishing they could pull out his tendons and skin him alive.
"This information was obtained at the cost of my fiancé's life."
"That poison needle from three years ago," Ning Yutong grabbed the back of the old ghost's collar, forcing him to look up, "and now it has been returned to its original owner."
The old ghost suddenly froze: "Three years ago..."
He suddenly remembered something: "Your fiancé is... Archie?"
The honest young man who always had a smile on his face had blocked the knife for him and helped him pass the checkpoints, but in the end he blocked the back door of the warehouse with his body.
Lao Gui remembered that when he inserted the poison needle into the opponent's waist, Aqi actually smiled: "It's worth it."
"His name is Lin Chang'an." Ning Yutong grabbed the old ghost by the collar, her voice colder than the night wind, "Police number 89..."
Five years ago, Ning Yutong's boyfriend, Lin Chang'an, who was also a drug enforcement officer, used the alias "Aqi" to infiltrate the Laogui criminal group as an undercover agent.
Before the operation, Lin Changan proposed to Ning Yutong, and the two agreed that after the mission of catching Lao Gui was completed, they would apply for transfer from the front line of drug control, transfer to civilian positions and start a family.
With his extraordinary courage and wisdom, Lin Changan quickly gained Lao Gui's trust and became a core member.
However, during the crackdown three years ago, Lin Changan's identity was accidentally exposed due to the leak of Lao Gui's internal protection umbrella.
At the critical moment, while covering his comrades' evacuation, he was shot in the waist by Lao Gui with a special ricin syringe.
This highly toxic poison can instantly paralyze the nerves and cause necrosis of muscle tissue.
After being poisoned, Lin Changan lost his ability to move, but he still blocked the back door of the warehouse. In the end, he was stabbed eight times by the cruel old ghost and died heroically.
"Old ghost, it's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge."
"If you fall into my hands, it's your death."
After Ning Yutong said the last word, the hand holding the gun suddenly began to tremble uncontrollably.
Three years of composure crumbled in that moment. She bit her lower lip tightly, tasting the salty taste of blood. Hot tears streamed down her face, as if to wash away the pain she had endured all those years.
"Old ghost..." Ning Yutong held up the intercom, her voice so fragmented that it barely formed a sentence. "He's been captured alive."
Those three simple words exhausted all her strength.
The night wind blew smoke past, and in a trance she seemed to see the young man in the uniform shirt again, smiling in the sunshine as he put the ring on her hand: "When we catch the old ghost, we will get married."
"You transfer to the Archives Department, I'll apply to be an instructor and have another daughter."
"My daughter should be like you, smart and energetic, but she must not be like me, who looks silly."
......
The walkie-talkie slipped from his fingers and hit the ground with a sharp sound.
Ning Yutong slowly squatted down and hugged her arms tightly.
Under the moonlight, the police badge ring flashed with a cold light - now the old ghost has been caught, but Lin Changan will always remain in that day three years ago.
Xia Lili was still worried when she heard Ning Yutong's report. She noticed Ning Yutong's sobbing.
Commander Gu's steady, powerful voice came over the intercom: "Excellent work! Everyone, immediately cordon off the scene and secure the evidence. The SWAT team will be responsible for the perimeter security, and the technical department will enter immediately to collect evidence. Lao Zhang, notify the procuratorate to intervene in advance."
He paused, his tone filled with relief. "After ten years, this cancer has finally been apprehended. On behalf of the Municipal Party Committee, I thank you all for your dedication. I'll commend you all when I get back!"
Two police officers lifted Lao Gui from the ground, one on each side.
The old ghost's wrists were handcuffed behind his back, but he still tilted his head and grinned at Ning Yutong, his gold teeth flashing coldly in the morning light.
He suddenly lowered his voice and said with a malicious smile, "Officer, do you know where your fiancé's body is now?"
Ning Yutong clenched her fingers suddenly, and her knuckles made a slight "crackling" sound.
She stared at the old ghost, her eyes as sharp as a knife.
"There's an open space southwest of this cement factory, with dozens of cement barrels piled up..." Lao Gui deliberately dragged out his words, watching Ning Yutong's pupils suddenly shrink, and smiled with satisfaction, "Guess which one contains Aqi?"
Ning Yutong's whole body tensed up, her breathing stagnated slightly, but soon she sneered and suppressed her surging emotions.
The old ghost snorted coldly, his tone angry: "I treat Aqi well! I give him money, power, and even adopt him as my godson, wanting to train him to be my successor!"
His voice suddenly rose, filled with twisted anger, "What happened? He was an undercover agent! He deserved to die!"
Ning Yutong stared at him and suddenly smiled, a smile that was bone-chillingly cold.
"Angry?" She approached slowly, her voice as soft as ice. "A person like you deserves to be angry?"
"Lin Chang'an has been lurking for five years, not for your money, not for your power, and certainly not to become your 'successor'."
She spoke each word with great emphasis, "He wants to send scum like you to jail one by one!"
"And you——" Her eyes swept over the old ghost's embarrassed look and said sarcastically:
"He died an honorable death, and you will die a dirty death."
