Chapter 977 Rekindling the Flame



"Yu Pu?"

Li Zhiqun grabbed Cui Yuanfeng's shoulder, his face contorted with rage.

Yu Pu was Ding Mo's absolute confidant. After Deng Zhengming's death, Ding Mo's operational forces were all led by Yu Pu. What did it mean that such a person actually possessed a Browning 1906 micro pistol? This immediately put everyone on edge.

Wu Shicai also asked sternly, "Is it really Yu Pu? I knew it, there's no one else but them!"

Li Zhiqun pressed further, "When and where did you see it?"

Cui Yuanfeng thought for a moment and confirmed, "On the 23rd, which was five days ago, around 3 p.m., because a batch of pistols that had just been issued to our department were not suitable, I went to the equipment department to exchange the guns and collect a batch of bullets. As soon as I entered the room, I saw Yu Pu and Section Chief Pu talking in the office. Their voices were very low, and I didn't hear what they were saying. But I noticed that Yu Pu was playing with a Browning 1906 in his hand. This model of miniature pistol is very rare. I was very curious and thought about borrowing it to play with it. But Yu Pu seemed very nervous and ignored me. He just put the gun away and left, which made me lose face."

Cui Yuanfeng's embellishments only deepened Li Zhiqun's suspicions. He asked in a deep voice, "When you went in, Yu Pu was talking quietly with Pu Liangjun? He was holding a miniature pistol, which means Pu Liangjun also knew that Yu Pu had this gun? Is that right?"

“Yes, Yu Pu was holding a pistol while they were talking. Section Chief Pu must know that. Director, you can ask Section Chief Pu if you don’t believe me. I was a little angry at the time, so I asked Section Chief Pu why Yu Pu went to the Equipment Section. But Section Chief Pu only said that Yu Pu went to chat with him when he had nothing to do. I think I heard... I heard that the two of them have a good personal relationship.”

Upon hearing this, Li Zhiqun's expression turned even uglier. He turned to Yang Jie and ordered, "Go, bring Pu Liangjun here immediately. Don't say anything, just bring him here right now!"

Yang Jie didn't dare to delay and quickly left. For a moment, no one in the room spoke. They knew the weight of this matter. If Yu Pu really did it, Li Zhiqun would definitely take revenge on Ding Mo at all costs. Even if Li Zhiqun's strength was far superior to Ding Mo's, Ding Mo was not without the power to fight back. A fierce internal struggle was inevitable.

Before long, Yang Jie brought Pu Liangjun, who was unaware of the situation, directly over. Pu Liangjun was brought over by Yang Jie without knowing what was going on, and he was naturally surprised and uncertain.

Seeing that Li Zhiqun and the others were all looking at him, Pu Liangjun felt uneasy and quickly bowed to Li Zhiqun.

"Director, you wanted to see me?"

Li Zhiqun's eyes were cold and sharp. He slowly walked up to Pu Liangjun and asked in as calm a tone as possible, "Pu Liangjun, I have a question for you. Do you know that Yu Pu of Juchuan Academy has a Browning 1906 miniature pistol?"

Pu Liangjun had already heard about what happened today. After all, with Chen Jinbao bringing his men to cause trouble at the No. 76 Special Agent Headquarters, almost everyone in the compound knew about it.

Upon hearing Li Zhiqun's question, he guessed that it was probably related to the stabbing of Li Yunqing earlier that day, and hesitated for a moment.

Seeing his hesitation, Wu Shicai could no longer contain himself. He rushed forward and kicked Pu Liangjun, sending him flying sideways and sprawling on his back.

Wu Shicai immediately stepped forward, grabbed Pu Liangjun by the collar, and cursed, "You bastard, how dare you betray your own people and secretly collude with Ding Mo's men! Tell me, what did Yu Pu discuss with you? Does he have that miniature pistol?"

Wu Shicai's sudden attack caught everyone off guard, and Yang Jie and Wu Zhenming quickly stepped forward to pull Wu Shicai away.

Pu Liangjun was jolted awake by the kick. He knew he had to tell the truth, or Li Zhiqun would not let him off the hook. He hurriedly explained, "Yes, Yu Pu does have such a miniature pistol. Director, you have to believe me. I had some dealings with Yu Pu before, but I have never had any dealings with Ding Mo. We have absolutely no connection."

Five days ago, Yu Pu came to see me, but that was to find bullets for his miniature pistol. We didn't have any in stock, so he asked me to order them on the black market. But those bullets are so hard to find; I haven't found any yet!

As expected, Li Zhiqun had no more doubts after seeing that Pu Liangjun had also admitted it. He waved his hand and ordered, "Take him away and confront him when I catch Yu Pu. If he really dares to betray his own people, then deal with him directly."

Pu Liangjun had clearly made it clear that he was in contact with Yu Pu, so Li Zhiqun naturally dared not use him anymore. What if he really was an inside man? Wouldn't that be like raising a tiger to cause trouble?

Watching Yang Jie and his men drag Pu Liangjun away, Luo Xingchao was secretly delighted. All the groundwork he had laid had finally been accomplished. The next step was to solidify Yu Pu's suspicions and continue to instigate infighting between Ding and Li.

Luo Xingchao rolled his eyes and said hesitantly, "Director, now that we've confirmed Yu Pu is a suspect, we can find out everything by checking his whereabouts when the incident happened this morning."

Wu Shicai glared and said fiercely, "What's the point of investigating? It's definitely him. Just arrest him and question him, that's all!"

In fact, everyone already believed that the assassin was Yu Pu. Besides the fact that he was carrying a Browning micro pistol, it was also because Yu Pu was a skilled tactician with exceptional combat abilities, which matched Li Zhiqun's previous analysis.

Sun Xiangde, who was standing to the side, was a cautious man. He said to Li Zhiqun, "Director, Yu Pu's identity is special. If he makes a move, it's tantamount to declaring war on Ding Mo. We should be more careful. We can't assume that just because someone has a miniature pistol, they are the one who assassinated Minister Li. Director Luo is right. It's always good to investigate."
