Along the way, Qin Donghai drove the car very fast and kept honking the horn.
At 12:10 noon, Du Ziyuan's car stopped in front of Zhao Minggui's rented house on Zhongbei Road. He got out of the car, walked across the narrow field bank, and walked towards Zhao Minggui's house.
When they were approaching the door, the door opened. Appearing at the door was Xu Wenmei, whose face was equally pale.
Xu Wenmei looked at Du Ziyuan with a stern face and slowly retreated into the room. Her hands were twisted together convulsively.
Before that, she had been standing in front of the window looking out all morning. She wanted to know who appeared in front of her door first, Zhao Minggui, Du Ziyuan, or simply a large group of policemen. Now,
When she saw Du Ziyuan walking over, she immediately understood that Zhao Minggui's ambush trap had failed. She felt that her death was coming soon.
At this time, standing in front of this door, looking at the frightened Xu Wenmei, Du Ziyuan gradually calmed down. He could not yell at this Xu Wenmei, could not get angry at her, he had to open a gap from her.
He sat down at the square table and stretched out his hand to Xu Wenmei, gesturing for her to sit down too. He stared at the woman quietly. To open a gap in this woman, he had to take certain steps.
At this time, he slowly took out a small notebook from his pocket, took out a photo, placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of her.
Xu Wenmei looked at him doubtfully, carefully picked up the photo, and looked at it carefully.
The photo shows a thatched house, a dilapidated thatched house that is common in rural areas in the south of the Yangtze River. The black thatched grass hangs messily from the eaves, and the mud-smeared walls have cracked, revealing the bamboo strips inside. There is a piece of bamboo on the mud wall.
There is a narrow window and a dark doorway. Sitting on the threshold is a dark and thin middle-aged man. He is wearing a very old Chinese tunic suit, with the collar rumpled and open. Beside him, there is also a seven-year-old man sitting.
The eight-year-old boy was also wearing old clothes that were too short and patched. They looked at the camera with calm or even dull expressions.
Xu Wenmei immediately recognized that this middle-aged man was her husband who had been captured by the Communist army. He had gone home to farm? So, the child next to him should be her son.
She pointed to the photo and said to Du Ziyuan in surprise: "He, my son? Really?"
Du Ziyuan nodded, "Yes, your son is eight years old."
Xu Wenmei looked at the photo, tears streaming down her face. Her lips were trembling and she kept shaking her head. When her son was four months old, she sent him back to the countryside. When she breastfed him for the last time, her face was filled with tears.
They were all tears. She only knew that her husband was captured by the Communist army and his life or death was uncertain. The future of her son would also be uncertain!
She looked up at Du Ziyuan, but was speechless. She felt deeply ashamed and could not explain it. However, the lives of her husband, her son, and her own life were in the hands of this man!
Finally, she said softly: "Mr. Du, I'm sorry."
Du Ziyuan stared at her sharply, but said softly: "You broke your promise, didn't you?"
Xu Wenmei immediately started crying and said intermittently: "Mr. Du, I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I don't want to hurt you! I had an argument with him, scolded him, and told him not to do this! But he didn't listen! He also hit me hard.
Slap me! He doesn’t know how to live or die! He insisted on doing that! I stopped him when he was going out, but he didn’t listen! Mr. Du, he is confused! He is obsessed with things! That man named Zeng is so obsessed with him
I said that Ye Gongjin wanted him to be the deputy director and go to Taiwan! He was completely fascinated by this thing! He couldn't listen to anything I said! I said, let's be honest and don't cause trouble. Maybe Mr. Du will let it go
Us! But he won’t listen to anything! He just wants to die! Mr. Du, I really don’t want to cause trouble, I don’t want to cause trouble to you! Please believe me!”
Du Ziyuan stared at her calmly and asked softly: "Where is the noble Zhao Ming?"
At this time, Xu Wenmei cried even harder. She shook her head and said: "He left at dawn. I couldn't stop him. He only said one sentence, asking me to wait for him to come back. But he arrived
She's not back now!" She covered her face and cried even harder.
Du Ziyuan asked: "Will he come back?"
Xu Wenmei raised her head and shouted: "He ran away! He left me and ran away! He will never come back! He ran away!"
Du Ziyuan said: "Okay, don't cry. I have one more thing to ask you."
Xu Wenmei wiped her tears and said, "You can tell me. You can ask whatever you want."
Du Ziyuan looked at her calmly, "Last night, there was an explosion at Wuchang Railway Station. Does this matter have anything to do with you? Or, do you know about this matter? Tell me the truth!"
At this time, although Xu Wenmei was sobbing from time to time, her eyes showed fear and uneasiness. She hesitated for a moment and finally said: "Mr. Du, to be honest, it is... it is related. We don't have special equipment. That special equipment is also
We didn't put it there. We just handed it over to the fat man named Tu."
Du Ziyuan asked: "Who handled it?"
Xu Wenmei didn't dare to hide it, so she had to say: "It's me. I just changed hands, just changed hands!"
"How do you change hands?" Du Ziyuan asked clearly.
"The night before yesterday, when the man named Tu came, I left it to him. That's all." She replied with a pale face.
"Where did he come from?" Du Ziyuan continued to ask.
"He...he came up from the water. There were two people. The man was guarding the boat. He came in, got the things and left."
Du Ziyuan was extremely angry. This was one of his monitoring blind spots. There was no doubt that this was Zhao Minggui's cunning at work. But it was also his negligence! Damn it!
He asked: "What else don't I know?"
At this time, Xu Wenmei hesitated for a moment. She looked at Du Ziyuan, panicked and uneasy. She said: "At first, the man named Tu asked us to hand over three pieces of special equipment. Mr. Du, it was three pieces. But, the night before yesterday,
I only gave him one piece. I only received one piece. I was... very strange at the time. However, the man named Tu didn't ask. So, I guess he didn't want us to know about the other two pieces of special equipment.
Where to go. Mr. Du, what I said is all the truth!"
At this time, Du Ziyuan's mind was already roaring, thick smoke and flames were billowing in front of his eyes, and he felt that he was being burned by the raging flames.
Only now did he understand that the cunning "water hyacinth" had a back-up plan. This back-up plan was the second or third explosive! The explosion at the Wuchang Railway Station last night, and the assassination of him this morning,
All to cover this backhand! All for this second or third explosion! Bastard! The target of that "water hyacinth" must be the core component being tested by the Wuhan Institute of Physics! The core component is in danger!
He looked at his watch and felt that time was running out. He said: "Xu Wenmei, I hope you will not act rashly in the past two days! Otherwise, the end will be even worse! I also hope you will cooperate with us and stay here.
Wait for Zhao Minggui to come back! If he will come back!"
He stood up and walked out immediately. When he reached the door, he turned back to stare at Xu Wenmei, his eyes as deep as a sharp knife. After that, he turned around and walked out, leaving Xu Wenmei, who was stunned and frightened, in the room.
.
When Du Ziyuan got into the car, he said to Qin Donghai: "First find a phone nearby, notify Wu Jian, and ask him to lead his troops and immediately surround the Institute of Physics, especially the test building! Hurry up!"
Qin Donghai speeded up the car while nervously looking for a phone on the street. A few minutes later, he found the phone in a store. He informed Wu Jian to immediately dispatch troops to strengthen the vigilance of the Institute of Physics. However, calmly said,
Du Ziyuan was still a step too late. At this time, it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon on May 24th!
And this morning, Zhang Yalan sat helplessly in Director Ge's office.
The female police officer responsible for "escorting" her waited until she entered the office and said, "Director Ge ordered you to stay here and not leave!" She then closed the door and left.
Zhang Yalan walked around anxiously in the office, but there was nothing she could do.
She had an inexplicable premonition that these two days would be a critical one. What was particularly important was that she didn't know what Zuo Shaoqing's current situation was, she didn't know what the situation was like between Xiao Fanbing and the operator, let alone what was going on outside.
What happened? She was really on tenterhooks and worried now.
Later, Director Ge finally came to work. She asked Director Ge to let her leave, but to no avail. Director Ge sarcastically mocked her and even scolded her.
He shouted to her: "If you don't tell me the truth, you will never leave here! I mean what I say!"
At 10:30 in the morning, Director Ge received a call saying that a shooting occurred at the intersection of Zhongbei Road and Chuhan Road. The person who was shot was the owner of a small department store named Lin Wenxiu. Now this woman's life or death
Unknown, he has been sent to the First People's Hospital for rescue.
When Director Ge heard this, his hair stood up. In the past two days, what he was most afraid of was accidents. But now, accidents have happened one after another, and there has been another shooting! A small department store owner,
Why was he shot? He couldn't figure out the reason at all.
He shouted into the phone: "You continue to investigate the scene! I will go to the hospital and try to ask about the situation. If you have any situation, call me!" He put down the phone and walked out.
Zhang Yalan rushed over and grabbed him, asking eagerly: "What did you say? Her name is Lin Wenxiu? I seem to have heard of this name. I want to go with you too! I must go!"
Director Ge yelled at her: "You stay here and you are not allowed to go anywhere!"
Zhang Yalan also shouted, "Tell you, I've heard of this name, maybe I can ask about other things!"
