The Devil in the World (20)

Feng Shaomin took out his walkie-talkie and contacted Han Changlin, but he didn't expect that Han Changlin had just returned to the police station. After explaining the situation, Han Changlin was very excited and immediately asked Tang Xiaochuan to apply for a search warrant from the bureau.

Yao Renjun was taken back to the police station. Tang Xiaochuan had already applied for a search warrant and gathered several police officers. Three police cars were ready to go to the Seattle club.

In the parking lot, the Han team tried to contact Lu He, but failed. He wanted to invite Lu He to join the operation. After all, this operation was very critical. The Seattle club might be a place where "talents are hidden", but the police force was a little insufficient.

Moreover, Director Liu is not here today, and the temporary work has been assigned to Lu He. This operation is not a simple one anyway, so it is best to inform him.

He asked, "Where is Lu He? He is not in the bureau. Is there a secret operation?"

A criminal police officer said: "Team Han, we just came back from patrol and heard some news that the road team also seems to have dispatched police."

At this time, Information Coordinator Lin Mingjia ran over and said breathlessly: "Captain Han, you just asked someone to let me check the information of the Seattle club. The team Lu is going to the Seattle club. The general manager of the club is Jia Longhui..." Lin Mingjia briefly introduced the club information.

Meng Siqi was slightly stunned. How come Lu He also went to the Seattle Club? Could it be that the Ruan Mengying case was also related to the Seattle Club? It seemed that Lu He and they had the same destination.

Han Changlin immediately put away his walkie-talkie and shouted, "Go to Seattle, join Lu He, and take a shortcut!"

Three police cars blared their sirens, echoing in the sky above Jinyang, and sped towards Binjiang Avenue, on the other side of the Sujiang Lighthouse in Jinyang city.

Soon, sirens sounded on the city avenues. Buses, taxis, private cars, trucks, etc. all cooperated and gave way. Soon the second team arrived at Binjiang Avenue.

From a distance, Meng Siqi saw from the car window the red and blue lights of more than a dozen police cars flashing on another road, and the sirens blaring through the sky.

The dozen or so cars seemed to have received orders from Lu He and immediately surrounded the entire building of the Seattle Club. The criminal police, fully armed and holding guns, blocked all the exits of the club in an orderly manner.

The second team's police car drove to the side of the first team's police car, and Han Changlin got out first. Meng Siqi followed suit, and the first thing she saw when she got out of the car was the crane under the red and blue lights.

He held a gun in his hand and stared at the gate of the Seattle Club with a sharp gaze. Luo Xiaoguo reminded Lu He that the second team had joined the team.

When Han Changlin walked towards him, Lu He turned his head slightly. At that moment, his eyes passed in front of Han Changlin and met Meng Siqi face to face.

They had never met in such an emergency arrest process, but Meng Siqi had a familiar feeling, as if they had just met after thirty years of smoke, war, and vicissitudes. It was a very difficult process, so much so that Meng Siqi felt that Lu He had been standing here, waiting here, waiting for hope.

Red and blue lights alternated on Meng Siqi's face. Lu He couldn't help but look at her again. That feeling made him a little dazed. He suddenly felt a sudden and heavy feeling hitting his heart, making him feel a little sad. He may have known Meng Siqi very long ago, very long ago, so long that he even forgot the time.

He suddenly recalled all of this, and realized that he was standing here not only to solve the unsolved case, but also to prove himself. He was trying to find her and his memory with her.

But Lu He realized that he couldn't think too much at this moment. After staring for a few seconds, he turned around and decided to launch a comprehensive search.

“Bang!”

Before Lu He could react, a black shadow fell from a high altitude and hit the concrete floor, blood splattered on the spot.

"Someone jumped from the building!" a criminal police officer shouted, and Lu He looked in that direction.

Meng Siqi watched helplessly as a figure fell from a great height. She immediately followed Han Changlin and rushed up. On the cold concrete floor, a man in a black suit was lying on the ground with his brain bursting and blood flowing around his head.

Although she had seen many murder scenes, she was still shocked when she saw this scene.

In just a few seconds, a living life disappears. The process is so simple, and the result is so violent.

She didn't know who he was, she could only tell that he was probably a middle-aged man, but he was probably closely related to this large-scale arrest operation. At least the first thing that came to her mind was that he committed suicide out of fear of crime.

Before the arrest even began, someone committed suicide out of fear of crime, which shows that the Seattle club may be hiding huge dangers and crimes.

Luo Xiaoguo shouted, "Cai Shuangxi, contact the forensic doctor as soon as possible. Everyone, please stop and provide protection at the scene."

"Captain Lu," Han Changlin walked up to Lu He. Lu He turned around. Their faces were calm. Han Changlin said, "We found that the missing female workers in the textile factory have a lot to do with the Seattle club."

Lu He didn't seem surprised and nodded.

Han Changlin said: "You came here first, so you should be in charge of the command."

"Okay, then the Korean troops will listen to my orders."

Lu He finished speaking, took the loudspeaker from Liang Yunfeng, and said loudly: "Everyone listen up, five groups will move, search the eighth floor to the basement in groups, group one will search the seventh and eighth floors, group two will search the fifth and sixth floors, group three will search the third and fourth floors, group four will search the first and second floors, and team two will be the fifth group, search the basement!"

Suddenly at this moment, there was a loud bang, and the sound of glass exploding came with a bang. Meng Siqi felt a sharp pain in his eardrums. At the side window on the third floor of the club, a motorcycle flew out, passed the police car, and flew to the road. With thick white smoke and the roar of the exhaust pipe, it sped away.

Meng Siqi saw clearly that it was a man wearing a white motorcycle uniform and a white helmet, moving like a puff of white smoke, at an astonishing speed.

She saw Lu He quickly raise his gun and aim at the white helmet.

Lu He aimed his gun at the back of the white helmet, but he did not fire.

The motorcycle had already rushed into the crowd of onlookers, and the area was in a mess. Lu He knew that he couldn't just open fire without any evidence from the club, and he had to consider the safety of the pedestrians.

But the White Helmet must be a crucial figure in the club, perhaps Jia Longhui, and he must not let him escape.

"Han, you are in charge here!"

Lu He reacted faster than anyone else. He strode to the perimeter of the police car, grabbed a traffic patrol motorcycle, stepped on the accelerator and started chasing after them.

Luo Xiaoguo grabbed a man in a hurry, "Lin Tao, hurry up and catch up with the team, don't get into trouble!"

Driving in this city is indeed inconvenient, so Lin Tao borrowed a traffic patrol motorcycle and chased after them.

Meng Siqi felt panicky. He didn't know how Lu He's pursuit would go this time, but since this was not the Hong Zhuang serial murder case, he should be fine.

Han Changlin knew that this was a sudden incident, but there had to be a commander here. He took the loudspeaker and shouted orders: "Stay in the same group, don't be distracted, and search every corner of the club! All members of the second team, follow me to search the basement! Action--"

All the criminal police rushed into the building in an orderly manner. Meng Siqi followed the pace of the second team and rushed down from the stairs on the first floor.

The stairs were dark, but the footsteps were as rapid as drumbeats. Soon, all five members of Team 2 rushed into the basement door. Han Changlin whispered in front of them, "Everyone, don't let go of your weapons. Be careful."

After running a short dark corridor, they stopped in front of a big door. This door was a metal door with a security lock. Han Changlin pointed his gun at the lock and fired it. The loud noise echoed in the corridor and the lock was broken. Tang Xiaochuan and Han Changlin pushed the door open together and rushed in like lightning, shouting, "Police!"

It looked like an underground garage inside, with dim light. Han Changlin raised his flashlight and shone it around. Soon, everyone's flashlights illuminated the garage. The garage was not large, with a few luxury motorcycles parked sparsely inside. It should not be the club's public parking lot, but a special motorcycle parking lot for department staff.

"Is there a door there?" Zhao Leiting shouted.

The group ran over and found it was an elevator door. Zhao Leiting pressed the elevator button, Han Changlin signaled to hide, and everyone moved to both sides of the elevator door. The elevator door clicked open, and there was no one inside.

Feng Shaomin said: "The man in the white helmet must have taken this elevator to the third floor and left."

"This should be a motorcycle parking garage." said Han Changlin.

"It's strange that the building is so big but the basement is so small." Feng Shaomin said puzzledly.

"Maybe it hasn't been developed yet?" Tang Xiaochuan said.

"No," Han Changlin said, "Everyone, look for another door in the garage. Be careful."

The group moved again. Meng Siqi looked in one direction with a flashlight. There was nothing special here, just a fire-fighting device. She was just curious because this fire-fighting device was much larger than ordinary ones.

Han Changlin shone his flashlight in her direction, "Did Xiao Meng find anything?"

There are multiple fire extinguishers stored in the glass door of this fire-fighting device. It may be for special purposes. It is larger than normal fire-fighting devices, which is also reasonable.

She turned and shook her head at the Korean team.

"Okay, everyone go to the ground and assist other groups." Han Changlin gave the order.

Meng Siqi walked to the middle, and as she walked, she suddenly felt something was wrong. Why were there so many fire extinguishers placed here? Even if there was a fire in the garage, there would not be a need for so many fire extinguishers, and if there was a fire on the ground, it would be impossible to run so far to find a fire extinguisher.

She turned around abruptly, walked quickly back to the fire-fighting equipment, and shone the flashlight around. She suddenly discovered that there was a lens the size of a playing card embedded in the side of the protruding fire-fighting equipment. For people of this era, it might be easy to mistake it for a logo, but Meng Siqi's first reaction was that this was the place to swipe the magnetic card.

This indicates that there is a problem with the fire-fighting equipment.

She was about to tell the Korean team when she saw them all coming over. Zhao Leiting asked curiously, "Siqi, did you find anything?"

"Team Korea, this is a lock," Meng Siqi pointed at the lens and said, "This is an electronic lock."

"Lock?" Zhao Leiting looked at it carefully. "Such an advanced lock?"

"Xiao Meng has a sharp eye. Everyone step back, if it is a lock, it can be opened." Han Changlin walked closer, raised his gun, aimed at the lens and fired with a "bang".

I saw the lens suddenly pierced, sparks flew, and there was a short circuit inside, making a crackling sound. After a few seconds, the entire fire-fighting device clicked and opened.

It was like a thick door opening automatically.

Everyone opened their eyes wide. There was light inside, as if there was a larger space.

Zhao Leiting looked at Meng Siqi and gave her a thumbs up. Han Changlin and the others also praised her with their eyes, but no one spoke at this time.

Han Changlin held up a gun and signaled everyone with his eyes to be careful. Meng Siqi followed at the back, and Yu Guan entered the fake fire door.

Inside was a new passage with bright light and a fluorescent lamp on the top. The group walked forward carefully. At the end, there was a metal door with the same lens lock. Han Changlin broke it with another shot.

The door opened.

Tang Xiaochuan and Han Changlin pushed open the door at the same time, rushed in like lightning, and shouted loudly: "Police!"

The light from inside shone out, and Meng Siqi could feel how strong the light was. She held the gun tightly and followed in. The second team had already searched the house, but there was no one inside.

Meng Siqi looked over and saw a room as big as a small badminton hall, in a mess. They must have just received the news and the people inside fled in a hurry. Although it was a mess, Meng Siqi could feel that this place was like a processing factory. Many small machines that she had never seen before were placed on the table, and there was also a large amount of white powder.

Feng Shaomin picked up the powder on the table and smelled it, and was shocked: "Captain Han, something is wrong, this is drugs."

"Drugs?" Han Changlin was startled, then twirled the powder on the table, and suddenly cursed, "Damn, this is a drug processing factory, so damn arrogant!"

Feng Shaomin said urgently: "Everyone must pay attention to safety, they may be hiding in the dark, and the drugs may also be hidden." He glanced at Meng Siqi, "Xiao Meng, follow me."

Because the place is so large and there are many tables, boxes and machines, there is no way to know if there are any Tibetans inside. If drugs are involved, they are usually desperate criminals who might sneak up on you and shoot you.

Meng Siqi immediately held her breath and followed Feng Shaomin, watching Han Changlin, Tang Xiaochuan and Zhao Leiting rushing to the front and exploring inside.

Han Changlin gave an order into the intercom: "I am Han Changlin. A drug processing factory was found in the basement. The enemy may have guns. Everyone, please be safe!"

"Team Korea, I don't think the signal can get out from here," Feng Shaomin reminded.

The figures of the second team continued to move forward, but they would stop at every step and take cover next to tables or boxes.

Just as Han Changlin stood up and moved forward again, he heard a series of loud "bang bang bang" noises, and loud sparks appeared on the metal machine beside Han Changlin and on the table above Tang Xiaochuan's head.

"Fuck!" Han Changlin hid just in time, "Hide!"

The bullet whizzed past Meng Siqi's ear. At that moment, Feng Shaomin pressed down her shoulders. She squatted beside a box, still in shock. Tension had surged through her body, and her heart seemed to be stuck in her throat, gripping her.

But her hand holding the pistol did not tremble at all. She already had good psychological qualities. Even though it was the first time she faced a vicious and extremely cruel murderer, she felt that she could deal with it calmly.

"There's more than one person." Feng Shaomin whispered to Han Changlin who was not far away.

Han Changlin whispered, "Old Feng, we can only confirm three criminals at the moment, two at the ten o'clock position, and one at the one o'clock position. Why don't we do it the same way as before. Xiaochuan, Lei Ting, you cover us!"

Feng Shaomin nodded. He certainly understood the meaning of the old-fashioned actions.

"Xiao Meng," Feng Shaomin warned, "stay here..."

Meng Siqi also understood immediately that Han Changlin's order only involved the actions of four people, a total of five people, so she was naturally excluded. She tried to say, "Master, I will follow you."

"Follow orders...stay here and be careful of anyone attacking you from behind." Feng Shaomin glanced at her and said nothing more.

As if they had a great understanding, Han Changlin ran to the left, Feng Shaomin ran to the right, and Tang Xiaochuan and Zhao Leiting followed closely behind.

As Zhao Lei Ting ran, he heard the heavy breathing in his heart. He knew that this operation could not afford to make mistakes, because if there was a mistake, their second team would be one man less!

He hopes that the second team will always be the most complete!

Suddenly, he saw a black figure rising from the top of a box in the distance, and the muzzle of the gun was immediately aimed at Han Changlin.

"Han..." Zhao Leiting was about to raise his gun to cover.

Only "bang bang bang" was heard, and sparks flew where the black figure appeared, and Tang Xiaochuan provided cover.

In the smoke and dust, Han Changlin rushed over like lightning and fired "bang bang bang" at the figure.

Zhao Lei Ting sighed and said, "There are two more."

At this moment, Zhao Leiting suddenly saw someone coming out from the right, and Han Changlin had no time to hide.

Before he could react, he heard another gunshot. The second gangster's heart was instantly pierced by a bullet, and blood splattered everywhere. It was Feng Shaomin's decisive shooting technique.

"Korean troops!" Zhao Leiting shouted. This time he was extremely decisive. He fired several shots at a certain place, sparks flying, and there was a gangster hiding behind the machine in the front left.

"Cover!" Han Changlin shouted and rushed over quickly. Unexpectedly, the gangster suddenly rushed out and shot him.

Han Changlin punched the gangster and knocked his pistol down, but the gangster did not give up and stabbed Han Changlin fiercely. Han Changlin was unable to dodge and his arm was cut. At this time, the gangster rolled over, picked up the gun and aimed it at Han Changlin.

"Bang!" Han Changlin was faster than him and shot him through the chest.

The criminal finally fell to the ground, blood all over the floor.

Meng Siqi kept her pistol in hand and looked over there. She saw them running over like the wind. Before she could react, "Help, help, help..." A series of gunshots and sparks flew, echoing in the enclosed space of the basement, deafening.

Her heart seemed to jump out of her throat and her breathing stopped. She didn't want anything to happen to anyone, but she didn't dare to disobey orders and went forward to see what was going on.

At this time, Han Changlin's voice came from far away, "Done!"

Zhao Lei Ting's excited voice was also heard: "Korean team, you are awesome, you beat them both!"

Feng Shaomin said: "Is your arm okay?"

"It's just a little bit broken! Damn, it's still a little bruised. Don't let your guard down, check it out again."

She finally took a breath, and just as she was about to stand up to gather her thoughts, a figure suddenly flashed in from the doorway. His arms were raised, and the shadow on the wall showed that he was holding a gun in his hand.

Meng Siqi never expected that Feng Shaomin's guess would become true. Maybe he was just comforting her and asked her to wait here, but how could she have expected that there was really someone hiding in the dark behind him.

Meng Siqi was worried that the other party would see him, so she secretly pulled her thighs back a little, hid beside the box, and tried to shrink herself as much as possible. She couldn't make any sound, otherwise she would be exposed and the other party would definitely shoot her.

The man finally showed half of his figure. He raised his pistol and aimed forward. Meng Siqi could see that the direction he was aiming at was the direction where the Korean troops were standing.

If he fired the gun, she would regret it for the rest of her life, but the gun in her hand was getting hotter and hotter, as if she had no control over it.

She has received gun training, and I still remember that it was Lu He who trained her the first time. Lu He said that every action with a gun is related to the sense of mission in your heart.

But what's wrong with her now?

The training lasted for a week, and she did perform well, hitting a target in the wild with live ammunition herself. However, it was a static target with no living bull's eye. Even though the bullet exploded, for her it was just a behavioral act of pulling the trigger.

Now she was facing a living person, a vicious and extremely evil criminal, who also had a weapon in his hand. If she couldn't shoot him in time, if she couldn't stop his actions, perhaps all of this would become an everlasting tragedy.

She tried to raise the gun and aimed it forward, but her palms were burning and her fingers seemed to have lost strength.

"Meng Siqi!"

"I hope you will continue to make just choices and let the flowers of justice bloom freely!"

"Siqi, you did a great job. You deserve a perfect score from me."

"The truth is endless, and our job as criminal police is to explore the truest truth buried deep in the abyss."

The voice that Lu He had once heard in her ears suddenly rang in her ears again quickly and repeatedly.

"Bang!" Meng Siqi pulled the trigger!

At the door, a bright blood flower appeared on the center of the gangster's forehead, and he fell down immediately.

Feng Shaomin turned his head suddenly, as if he had received a great shock. He ran over and lay down beside Meng Siqi, his face full of panic. He desperately touched her shoulders and forehead, and then touched her arms, "Are you okay? Are you okay?"

Meng Siqi had never seen Feng Shaomin so panicked before. This didn't seem like him. He looked like someone who had lost a loved one. She couldn't help but feel a little distressed. "Master, I'm fine. I killed a gangster!"

Tang Xiaochuan and Zhao Leiting rushed to the door quickly to check the condition of the gangster who had been killed and the condition of the door.

Feng Shaomin loosened his hand, but his fingers were still trembling slightly, and his eyes were filled with turbid tears. "It's okay, it's okay. Master, I'm sorry for what happened just now. Don't blame Master."

Meng Siqi knew why he said sorry. He only touched her head and arm, and he must have wanted to confirm whether she was injured.

She finally understood how good the master was to her and how he was afraid that she would get hurt. She said with emotion, "Master, I'm really fine. I will listen to you in everything from now on."

"Okay, get up quickly. You performed very well today. Master is proud of you!"
