The police officer who went to verify the information quickly returned. He glanced at Yu Pu with a strange look, walked to Tang Dongting's side, and whispered a few words in his ear.
Kang Dongting glanced at his subordinate, then turned to look at Yu Pu before approaching him again. This time, the smile on his face was not as natural as before.
"Instructor Yu, shall we talk inside?"
After saying that, Kang Dongting gestured for him to enter. At that moment, the police officers around him also moved closer to Yu Pu. If Yu Pu made any unusual moves, they would rush over and subdue him.
Yu Pu knew that the police station's answer must have aroused Kang Dongting's suspicion, and he could only hope that they would believe everything he said.
Yu Pu didn't say much. He got up and followed Kang Dongting out of the conference room and into a private office. Several police officers stood guard beside Yu Pu, afraid that he might suddenly cause trouble.
Kang Dongting was still very polite to Yu Pu, after all, Ding Mo, who was behind Yu Pu, was also his superior, Zhou Fushan, the Minister of Police.
Kang Dongting coughed lightly, carefully considered his words, and began to ask, "Instructor Yu, the police station said that you went to their office to handle official business related to recruiting trainees, but they didn't call you at all. You just came by yourself, said a few words to the officer on duty, and left."
Yu Pu could only nod and explain, "That's right. I received a call at nine o'clock this morning, asking me to come over for official business, but when I arrived, I found that there was no such thing. I don't know what happened."
Kang Dongting thought for a moment, then said, "We will verify this through the telephone exchange, but that will take some time. I would like to check whether Instructor Yu is carrying any weapons. Please cooperate!"
Upon hearing that Kang Dongting wanted to search him, Yu Pu's face darkened. He said unhappily, "Director Kang, this is going too far! I am Minister Ding's man; you should show some leniency!"
Kang Dongting spread his hands and explained in a low voice, "Instructor Yu, let me explain. The person who was assassinated today was Li Yunqing, the leader of the Green Gang. I don't need to explain his identity, do I? If you don't let me check now, then the people from No. 76 will have to check later. They don't have my patience. It's better for everyone to stay calm. What do you think?"
Kang Dongting certainly knew what had happened at the No. 76 Special Agent Headquarters. Director Ding Mo had been completely ousted from No. 76 by Deputy Director Li Zhiqun. Yu Pu was Ding Mo's man, and if he were really handed over to No. 76, he would definitely suffer the consequences!
"Instructor Yu, while Director Li hasn't taken over yet and I can still make the decision, I'll give you a chance to prove your innocence. You'd better seize it!"
Yu Pu had no choice but to nod in agreement. Tang Dongting gave him face by not having his men do the search but instead searching himself.
Kang Dongting searched very thoroughly, finding several items on Yu Pu's person: a pen, a pack of cigarettes, a box of matches, a wallet, a set of keys, and finally, the Browning micro pistol.
Kang Dongting's pupils contracted as he looked at the miniature pistol. He held it in his hand and asked Yu Pu, "Instructor Yu, a Browning 1906, that's a fine gun, very rare! Is it really yours?"
Yu Pu was extremely fond of this gun. This miniature pistol was originally designed for special agents, a weapon that agents could carry with them to deal with emergencies. So, ever since he got it, Yu Pu had always carried it with him.
Yu Pu looked at Kang Dongting and asked questions, but he wasn't worried. He was even secretly glad that he was carrying such a rare miniature pistol, because this kind of pistol needs to be equipped with special alloy bullets. Even if Li Yunqing was shot, it couldn't be because of such bullets. He could explain it clearly.
"Of course it's mine!"
Upon hearing Yu Pu's confirmation, Kang Dongting didn't ask any more questions. He carefully checked the gun case and, as expected, there were only three bullets inside.
He looked up at Yu Pu again, let out a soft breath, and after a moment of contemplation, said again, "Instructor Yu, you know that today's situation is very special. I need to report to Minister Zhou. I will keep this gun for you temporarily. Once the case is clear, I will definitely return it to you!"
Yu Pu frowned, looked at Kang Dongting, and finally nodded in agreement. Anyway, he wasn't afraid that Kang Dongting would take the bullet; he just wanted to get away today!
Just then, the door to the room suddenly opened, and a person pushed the door open and entered. It was Ding Mo, the Minister of Social Affairs.
After receiving Yang Hong's distress call, he was naturally shocked. Li Yunqing had been assassinated, and Yu Pu was trapped in the city hall building, even having to call for help. Coupled with Yang Hong's narration, everything that had happened was crystal clear to Ding Mo. He knew that he absolutely could not let Yu Pu fall into Li Zhiqun's hands. Otherwise, once the case was confirmed, Li Zhiqun would definitely retaliate without hesitation, and the conflict that had just subsided for two days would erupt again, and this time it would be extremely difficult to resolve peacefully!
So he rushed over as quickly as possible, determined to bring Yu Pu back and try to mitigate the negative impact of the incident.
As soon as Ding Mo entered the room, all the police officers were stunned. Ding Mo took a few steps forward, stood in front of Yu Pu, glared at him with an extremely stern look, and then turned to Kang Dongting, saying directly, "Director Kang, may I talk to you?"
After speaking, he glanced at the other police officers in the room. Ding Mo's sudden appearance surprised Kang Dongting. He hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not want to offend Ding Mo, so he waved his hand. The other police officers had no choice but to leave and close the door from the outside. Only Kang Dongting, Ding Mo, and Yu Pu remained in the room.
