When it is inconvenient to find the LAPD and Bureau of Investigation, the reporter's channel seems to be more convenient.
Although Dora was a little angry that Zhang Pin hung up the phone on her at first and didn't want to have anything to do with her, so when Zhang Pin called in the early morning, she verbally chose to fight back, but after all, she had something to ask for, so
In fact, he moves very quickly physically.
Before the police arrived, she rushed over first.
"Ah, you were ambushed."
When Dora arrived, Zhang Pin had already gotten out of the car.
He had stayed in the car to prove his identity as a victim.
After he made the call, the police already knew about it, so there was no need for him to continue suffering in the car.
In fact, Zhang Pin had already taken advantage of the opportunity to observe the surroundings while waiting for others. The first thing he saw was that a guy sitting in the car that crashed into him was dead.
Then there was originally a camera not far from the intersection, but now it has been destroyed.
Judging from these circumstances, Zhang Pin did not understand that he was ambushed in advance.
Regarding the fact that these guys dared to ambush him, Sir Zhang still admired their courage.
"Hey, expert!"
Zhang Pin looked at Dora with some surprise.
As a professional, of course it was nothing for him to see that he was ambushed, but Dora was able to make a quick judgment when he first arrived. Sir Zhang even couldn't help but wonder whether the other party was an insider, or even this time.
His own fellow guy.
However, this suspicion was quickly rejected by Sir Zhang himself.
Because he felt no hostility from Dora.
It sounds a bit mysterious, but Zhang Pin is still confident enough in this feeling.
Moreover, after he collided with the car, if those people really came to kill him, they should not have left a message to threaten him to stop talking nonsense, but should have shot directly at the car.
After all, it was inconvenient for him to hide in the car at that time, so it was the best opportunity.
Although if the other party had fired at that time, Zhang Pin would not have been shot to death by them directly. On the contrary, those guys would have been killed by Zhang Pin because they did not run away in time.
But no matter what, for those uninformed guys at that time, if they really wanted to kill people, that was the best opportunity.
Since the other party did not fire any more guns at that time, it means that this ambush was just a temporary move.
Zhang Pin estimated that the guy who exploded the house saw him appearing there, and then saw him taking a detour and made a judgment about his route.
"Of course, my eyes are amazing. If not, how do you think I could be recruited by Fox and stand out from so many competitors?"
Dora seemed a little dissatisfied with Zhang Pin's doubts, so she wrinkled her nose and immediately praised herself.
But what Dora said is also true. The fact that she was able to apply for the job of Fox TV host without any background is a proof of her strength.
In a big company like that, there are naturally a lot of struggles in daily life. If you don't have enough eyesight, you may have been trampled to death long ago.
Of course there is a reason why Dora behaves like this in front of Zhang Pin.
She obviously wants to show her worth.
Seeing that Zhang Pin had no intention of answering, Dora immediately changed the topic: "Tell me, why are you calling me out so late? It can't be that you lack someone to warm your bed."
"I like talking to smart people, but I don't like sleeping with smart people."
Zhang Pin was also not surprised that Dora could guess that he had something to do with her. Just as Dora said, when he called her over in the middle of the night, he must have something to look for. Otherwise, he couldn't be just idle and bored.
"But let's wait until the police handle this matter before we talk about it."
While Zhang Pin and Dora Dora were communicating, the LAPD who received the alarm finally arrived belatedly.
It stands to reason that since the attack on the Secretary of Defense occurred today, the LAPD should have placed the entire city under martial law.
However, because the identity of the perpetrator of this attack had long been determined, and because an important figure was attacked, the police focused most of their efforts on protecting key figures and places.
On the contrary, the police will focus on people like Zhang Pin who call the police temporarily. After all, the trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain is the favorite method of some criminals who think they are smart.
But no matter what, Zhang Pin's identity is here. When they heard that he was attacked, the police could not ignore it, so after ensuring that it was safe, the police still sent personnel to check.
Because Zhang Pin was not prepared to use the LAPD's channels, he would not take the opportunity to invite him to participate in the case of the attack on the Maoist Defense Minister.
So they just asked the police to register, and after confirming that Zhang Pin was really attacked, he got into Dora's car and left the scene.
"Do you know the man who died in the car just now?"
After getting in the car, Zhang Pin was silent for a few minutes before suddenly speaking.
The reason why Zhang Pin remained silent was that he couldn't help but wonder if he had guessed one thing wrong, that is, whether Dora was one of the participants in tonight's action against him.
And he had this suspicion, of course, because after the police arrived, when they went to check on the driver who collided with Zhang Pin and died in the car, Dora acted as if she knew the other person.
Although Dora did not express his position on the spot, Zhang Pin's observation ability was very strong, so he was sure that he was not wrong.
But after thinking about it, Zhang Pin still felt that something was not right.
After all, although Dora showed that she recognized the driver, she did not hide it.
If she was really a participant or an insider, it stands to reason that her first reaction when seeing the driver would be to pretend that she didn't know him.
Zhang Pin didn't understand the reason for Dora's behavior, so he simply asked.
Dora: "Of course, you don't know his identity?"
As a result, when Dora heard Zhang Pin's inquiry, she asked Zhang Pin in return.
Zhang Pin: "From what you say, I should know that person, right?"
Zhang Pin suddenly became confused when he heard Dora's words.
Dora: "Shouldn't it be?"
Dora asked again.
Zhang Pin: "Whether it should be or not, this is not the point. The point is, can you introduce the identity of that guy? I also want to know the reason why they are looking for me."
After hearing what Dora said, Zhang Pin also reacted. It seemed that there was some information asymmetry between the two parties.
He didn't pretend to understand, but asked directly.
"That guy is one of Santos' cadres."
Dora also found that Zhang Pin seemed to really not know the driver who collided with her, so she opened her mouth to explain to Zhang Pin.
"Don't tell me you don't know Santos?"
Dora said and took a special look at Zhang Pin.
Zhang Pin chose to remain silent at this time.
Of course it was impossible for him not to know Santos, after all, he had killed that guy last night.
"No, I heard that Santos has been killed. Is that guy here to avenge his boss?"
Zhang Pin made some suspicious guesses. It wouldn't be a surprise if Santos' cadres came to help the boss take revenge.
Yesterday, another Santos subordinate, Johnny, led someone to find Chen Houde to trouble him. Zhang Pin happened to meet him, so he easily killed him.
In order to prevent the trouble from spreading, the smaller ones appeared and the bigger ones emerged, so Sir Zhang took the initiative to kill the boss, Santos.
However, after he succeeded, he happened to meet Ajie who had the same idea, so he gave the other person the reputation of killing Santos.
As a result, Zhang Pin was blocked by another Santos cadre on the road tonight, and the other party even hit him with a car.
This time, Zhang Pin was completely out of control.
At first he was a little surprised as to why Santos' men knew that he was the real murderer of his boss.
Secondly, he was equally surprised that the other party could block him under such circumstances.
Not to mention three, when there was a car accident just now, there was obviously another car, and the guy in that car warned him not to talk nonsense.
If the first and second surprises can still be explained.
For example, Ajie, whom he met last night, recognized himself, and then he was captured by Santos' men, so that the other party knew his identity.
Or maybe he missed something when he cut off the surveillance of Santos' villa last night, or Santos installed some cameras that he didn't notice, and then the cameras captured him.
Although his actions last night were disguised, maybe the other party saw through it.
Although these may be unlikely, they can basically be explained clearly.
As for the fact that the other party was able to block him, it is easy to explain. Maybe there is a mole in the LAPD who revealed his whereabouts, or the other party has been sending people to follow him.
But the third one, the other car that appeared after the car accident, and the person in the car who threatened him, Zhang Pin really couldn't figure it out.
"It's strange. They have the wrongdoer and the debtor, so they shouldn't come to me."
Zhang Pin was speechless for a moment.
Judging from these low-possibility situations, he highly doubted whether there might be any misunderstanding or coincidence.
"By the way, please help me find out quickly. There was an explosion in the villa area about five minutes down the road tonight. Let's see who the owner of that villa is."
Compared to the previous speculations, Zhang Pin was still more inclined to believe that this attack was probably related to the explosion he encountered a few minutes ago.
Dora: "It seems you really don't know?"
After hearing Zhang Pin's inquiry, Dora looked very regretful.
Zhang Pin: "I met a friend before, and he always liked to make such gestures and speak awkwardly. Later, his problem disappeared completely. Do you know how to solve it?"
In response to Dora's successive Riddler actions, Zhang Pin spoke calmly.
"How is it good?"
Dora heard his words and asked curiously.
Zhang Pin: "It's very simple. Once someone cut off his tongue. Later he became very good at sign language. Do you want to try it too?"
Zhang Pin cast a malicious glance at Dora's flaming red lips.
"Hmph, who knows if you really don't know or if you are just pretending to be confused."
Dora immediately wrinkled her nose at Zhang Pin's threat, but she continued to ask Zhang Pin a question.
"Since you know Santos, don't you know that that's Santos' territory over there, and the villa you mentioned is also where Santos' men usually gather."
"You mean, that villa belongs to the Santos gang."
After hearing Dora's words, Zhang Pin suddenly understood.
Now, he finally understood the reason why he was attacked and why the driver was a cadre under Santos.
"I'll give you some big news, do you want it?"
Zhang Pin probably connected these things based on the previous period, and then he looked at Dora again.
"First tell me what happened tonight. Our TV station is already looking for clues and is asking for help. I should have gone back to the TV station, but I didn't go back because of you."
Dora was not excited by Zhang Pin's so-called big news. On the contrary, she inquired about the bombing case that Zhang Pin mentioned.
The reason why the police officers who responded to the traffic accident were slow to arrive before was explained to Zhang Pin because more police officers were summoned for the remote villa bombing.
The case there was huge. When the police arrived at the scene, they found more than fifteen bodies, and they suspected there would actually be more.
Because the place where Zhang Pin reported the crime was not far from the villa, the police specially investigated the surrounding area before handling his case.
As a reporter, it stands to reason that Dora should be present when such a big case occurs.
At this moment, she chose to stay with Zhang Pin. If she didn't have some agenda, she would have to pay a lot of money.
"It's very simple. Someone took advantage of Santos's death, so they sent people to their lair. I suspect they wanted to get something. In the end, something might have happened unexpectedly, and it turned into a strong attack. There must be something behind this.
It has something to do with the support behind Santos, but do you have the guts to report like this?"
After confirming that the villa where the explosion occurred turned out to belong to the Santos Club, Zhang Pin immediately guessed what would happen tonight.
"How can you be sure that it was the protective umbrella behind Santos who was acting? Maybe it was because Santos was dead and none of his men obeyed anyone, so a fight broke out."
Dora had different opinions on Zhang Pin's guess.
"No way, Santos' men can't get the rocket launcher."
Zhang Pin is confident about this.
"Then maybe it's gangsters grabbing territory and taking advantage of others."
Dora continued to find fault.
"I don't know if you've noticed, but the police were very slow to dispatch tonight."
Zhang Pin responded to Dora's question by answering her question.
"Didn't the police officer say before that a large number of police officers have been guarding the place recently? Moreover, they are worried about diverting the troops away from the mountain. In addition, the villa explosion case attracted too many police forces."
Dora was obviously a little confused about Zhang Pin's sudden concern about the speed of dispatching the police.
"No, these are just appearances and excuses. The real reason is that there are actually no police patrolling the area where the villa is tonight."
Regarding Dora's doubts, Zhang Pin shook his head in denial.
"Really!"
Hearing Zhang Pin's words, Dora's eyes suddenly lit up, and then she took out her mobile phone and prepared to contact others.
