Chapter 500 Finding the Murderer
The EOD personnel wore explosion-proof suits weighing more than 50 kilograms and slowly walked to the front of the car carrying portable X-ray machines and other tools.
The trunk had been opened a long time ago. After detection, he ruled out the possibility of timed and remote-controlled detonation.
Carefully, he stretched out his hands and gently took it out, placing it in an open area far away from the car.
Everyone at the scene, including Li Yuanlang, held their breath and looked directly at the EOD personnel.
I saw him lying on the ground and observing carefully. It was an explosive device packed in a cooking oil barrel.
It was molded with cement and repeatedly wrapped with tape, with wires vaguely exposed.
He used EOD scissors to carefully peel off a hole, and combined with the X-ray machine detection, he determined that the detonation method was a pull-type detonation.
That is to say, during the movement and disposal process, if it explodes, the positive and negative electrodes of the battery will collide and explode if the device is connected with a little force.
This person raised his head and took a few deep breaths, making up his final determination and cheering himself up.
Everyone at the scene had their hearts in their throats, and many people's palms were sweaty, even though it was winter.
Then, I saw this man holding the EOD scissors to clamp the wire, one, two, three, cut it off!
There was a "click" and the wire was cut.
call……
The moment the wires were cut, many people covered their eyes and ears, not daring to look.
As the wires were cut, the explosion did not sound. Explosion, explosion, the device stood quietly on the ground without moving at all.
However, the EOD personnel did not leave immediately. Instead, they carefully inspected the explosive device and found that there were many steel balls filled in it. Once an explosion occurred, the lethality would be doubled.
What a risk!
When he slowly stood up and extended a thumbs up in the direction of Li Yuanlang and the others, Li Yuanlang excitedly took the lead in clapping.
Then, the people around him, as well as those watching the excitement, and the people upstairs nearby also gave him warm applause that lasted for a long time.
It is a celebration of applause for the bravery of this EOD personnel and for the safe EOD.
When the man took off his explosion-proof suit, Li Yuanlang was the first to step forward and hold the man's hand tightly with both hands. He could feel that his palms were full of sweat.
"Thank you for your bravery. On behalf of the county committee and county government, I thank you. You are great and you have worked hard." Li Yuanlang was very excited and shook his hand repeatedly, and then let go after a long time.
Successful detonation is equivalent to firing the first shot of victory.
Li Yuanlang rushed to the scene of the arrest in Xishan without stopping, in the conference room of the water purification plant at the foot of Xishan.
Political Commissar Gao Gao and Deputy Director Hu Zhaojun of the County Public Security Bureau are directing the search operation here.
This was the first time that Hu Zhaojun met Li Yuanlang, but the circumstances were special and he didn't exchange much greetings.
Gao Gao reported to Li Yuanlang, Han Mingguo and Li Benqing that in addition to the police officers on duty at home, the county public security bureau had all available police forces in place and was dragging a net from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain to find the murderer Chen Zheng.
It's just that it's dark now, which makes the search very difficult.
Li Yuanlang asked the height: "Is there any sign that Chen Zheng has entered the mountain?"
Gao Gao replied: "The surveillance at the intersection near Xishan captured the appearance of Chen Zheng. This was the last time we saw him. From this, we can judge that Chen Zheng must have run into the mountains."
Hu Zhaojun, who was beside him, said: "The time shown by the surveillance was an hour ago. What if he deliberately avoided surveillance and did not go to the mountains? I think this possibility exists."
"Deputy Director Hu, do you think Chen Zheng is not on the mountain?" Li Benqing asked coldly, frowning.
"I only said it was possible, not certain." Hu Zhaojun told the truth.
Gao Gao curled his lips and said, "What's the point of speaking out without you? Don't analyze blindly, disrupt the leader's thinking, make wrong judgments, and delay the best opportunity to arrest. Can you bear this responsibility?"
"you……"
"Okay, please stop saying a few words." Li Yuanlang frowned and stopped their argument.
He folded his arms and analyzed: "Let's change our thinking. Is Chen Zheng only taking revenge on Yan Wei this time?"
Hu Zhaojun took over and said: "As far as we know, Chen Zheng once said that Yan Wei is the culprit, and a vice president of Weishun Real Estate Company is also his sworn enemy. Because it was this person who gave the idea to prevent Yan Wei from
Wei settled the money for Chen Zheng."
After Li Yuanlang listened, he lit a cigarette and smoked while walking back and forth in the conference room, thinking hard.
At this moment, someone came in and reported that a platoon of soldiers from the city's armed police force had arrived.
Li Yuanlang took everyone out, met with the leader of the armed police force, and introduced the search situation.
The team leader was a major. He came here on orders from his superiors and accepted Li Yuanlang's command and dispatch.
Li Yuanlang was polite and called the major in. There were Han Mingguo and the leaders of the Public Security Bureau headed by Li Benqing.
Several people stood in front of the map of Daiding County. Li Yuanlang took a puff of cigarette and said to himself: "If Chen Zheng ran into the mountains and the cold weather would freeze him to death, would he do that?
"
Faced with Li Yuanlang's question, Han Mingguo nodded in agreement, "There is no place for shelter in the mountains of Xishan. Chen is a native of Daiding County. He should know this."
"Won't he run somewhere else?" Gao interjected.
Hu Zhaojun shook his head and said with certainty: "We have set up roadblocks at all the intersections entering and exiting the mountain, making it difficult for him to fly."
Li Yuanlang continued to ponder, and suddenly his eyes lit up. He quickly walked to the map, pointed to a place and asked everyone, "Look, this is the Daiding County Funeral Home. Yan Wei's body is parked there. The people from Weishun Company are still there."
The vice president must be there too. Do you think Chen Zheng will go there to seek revenge from the vice president?"
Gao Gao responded immediately: "We also have police deployed at the funeral home. Will Chen Zheng throw himself into a trap?"
"You don't understand what I mean." Li Yuanlang frowned, "Of course he won't walk in arrogantly. Will he observe in secret, or just hang around the funeral parlor?"
Hu Zhaojun immediately realized: "You mean to expand the search scope in the funeral home?"
"Yes." Li Yuanlang nodded approvingly.
The major of the armed police understood this and immediately asked for orders. He led the platoon of armed police soldiers to the funeral parlor immediately.
"Deputy Director Hu, please also deploy some police forces to cooperate with the armed police comrades." Li Yuanlang gave the order to Hu Zhaojun.
"Yes." Hu Zhaojun saluted Li Yuanlang, turned around and left with the major.
As Li Yuanlang expected, less than ten minutes after the two left, Li Benqing received a call. Someone reported that a man who looked like Chen Zheng was found near an abandoned small house opposite the funeral home.
Since the Public Security Bureau has previously issued a reward notice through the media, if anyone discovers that Chen Zheng's report is meritorious, he will receive a reward ranging from 20,000 to 50,000.
At this moment, several more calls came in, all reporting clues about Chen Zheng's whereabouts.
This further strengthened the fact that Li Yuanlang's judgment was correct.
As expected, Chen Zheng was not in Xishan, but was operating within five miles of the funeral home.
Therefore, Li Yuanlang redeployed all the police forces in Xishan to the area around the funeral home, and sent out unmanned aerial vehicles with lights to search within this area.
This will put a lot of pressure on Chen Zheng and make him feel that there is no way to escape and surrendering is the only option.
At the same time, Li Yuanlang also moved the headquarters to the office building of the funeral home.
Time passed little by little, and the manhunt was also carried out in an intense and orderly manner.
Li Yuanlang was so anxious that he didn't even eat dinner. He sat in the curator's office, smoking one cigarette after another.
Lei Zhen's side was also having a hard time.
After Zhao Gongda, Mayor Shi Kan called to inquire about the progress of the case.
Although the municipal party committee secretary and the mayor did not give him a time limit to solve the case, they were so concerned that they suddenly increased the pressure on Lei Zhen.
After all, Chen Zheng had a gun on him, and no one knew whether it exploded or not. His existence was very dangerous, and Lei Zhen even gave the Public Security Bureau an order not to capture him alive and kill him on the spot.
Wang Zhongqiu never left Li Yuanlang's side, bringing snacks and milk from time to time, and persuading Li Yuanlang to take a bite to avoid starving him.
Li Yuanlang waved his hand, "I won't drink any more milk during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Make me a cup of coffee to refresh myself."
"The county magistrate..."
"Go ahead, if you don't have coffee, strong tea will do."
Not long after, Wang Zhongqiu brought a cup of steaming coffee to Li Yuanlang.
Li Yuanlang stirred it with a small spoon and asked, "Please help me analyze it. What will Chen Zheng do at this time?"
Chapter completed!
