This is a big deal. I originally thought that Zhang Jingde would be able to come to my home as a guest, but I never thought that Zhang Jingde would be seriously injured?
Upon hearing this explanation, the entire living room fell into silence.
There was laughter just now, but now, there is only silence.
After Gu Chen thought briefly for a few seconds, he asked: "Brother Li, which hospital is Uncle Zhang in?"
"People's Hospital." Officer Li choked up and said.
"Okay, we'll come right now, yes, right now." After briefly communicating with Officer Li, Gu Chen breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at everyone and said:
"Dad, Mom, Weiwei, we..."
"No need to say anything." Before Gu Chen could finish speaking, Gu Baichuan waved his hand and said:
"I'm going to pack my things now, and we'll leave immediately."
"Yes." Gu Chen nodded slightly, looked at Lu Weiwei again, and said with an apologetic expression: "Weiwei, if something like this happened, we may have to go to the hospital first."
"It doesn't matter, I'll go too." Of course Lu Weiwei knew what was going on.
Whether Zhang Jingde can save his life seems to be unknown.
Xiao Xiaofang also said with an apologetic look: "Oh, Lao Zhang usually likes to work hard. He has countless injuries on his body, big and small."
"Every time, I tell him to be careful and not to show off in anything. After all, age is what it is. But who knew? It would be so serious this time?"
Speaking of this, Xiao Xiaofang's eyes seemed to become moist.
At this moment, Gu Baichuan had already found the key, walked directly to the middle of the crowd, and said, "What are you waiting for now? Hurry and go to the hospital to see Lao Zhang!"
…
…
An hour later, outside the intensive care unit of the People's Hospital, everyone gathered outside the door. Many police officers were on the phone and walking back and forth.
Others were lying at the door of the ICU, observing Zhang Jingde's condition in the ICU ward through the doors and windows.
Gu Chen was the only one sitting on the bench outside, arms folded, surprisingly quiet.
Because Gu Chen knew very well that at this moment, no matter how much worry he had, it would be useless. He could only pray that Zhang Jingde would get better soon.
Gu Baichuan also stayed close to the door and window of the ICU ward to observe the reconciliation for a long time. Then he turned to look at Officer Li and said, "Xiao Li, have you notified Lao Zhang's family?"
"I've already informed you, but the master's family is traveling in the northwest these days, and they won't be able to come back right away." Officer Li told the truth. He felt that if Zhang Jingde left suddenly at this time, he would really be in trouble.
It’s hard to explain to the master’s family.
After all, relatives may not even be able to see each other for the last time, which is very sad just thinking about it.
"Oops!" Gu Baichuan continued to sigh, walking back and forth outside the ward with his hands behind his back.
Then, Gu Baichuan stopped and looked at Officer Li: "Xiao Li, have you caught the murderer who stabbed Lao Zhang?"
Hearing what Gu Baichuan said, Officer Li shook his head.
"What? No one has been caught yet? What do you do for food?" Gu Baichuan couldn't bear it, thinking that the old man was injured like this, but the murderer hadn't been caught yet.
Officer Li also quickly comforted him and said, "Uncle Gu, don't be anxious. There's no point in being anxious."
"It has happened. We are also thinking of ways to arrest the murderer. Don't worry."
"How can you not be anxious?" After saying this, Gu Baichuan couldn't help but choked up and pointed at Zhang Jingde in the ICU ward and said:
"Lao Zhang, my good friend and iron-clad buddy for so many years is lying inside now. Now you tell me that the murderer hasn't been caught yet. You... what do you want me to say about you? It really pisses me off.
Already."
He looked up at the ceiling, sniffed, and tried not to vent his emotions too much. After a while, Gu Baichuan said again:
"Tell me, how did Lao Zhang get injured?"
"this……"
"Say it." Seeing that Officer Li was still hesitant, Gu Baichuan's temper suddenly rose.
When Gu Chen saw this, he quickly came over to smooth things over and said, "Dad, this may involve the secrets of some cases. You cannot tell others casually. Don't embarrass Senior Brother Li."
"Can……"
"I know." What else do you want to say when you see your father Gu Baichuan? Gu Chen waved his hand to interrupt, then he helped his father Gu Baichuan aside and said comfortingly:
"Leave this matter to me, okay?"
"Okay." Although Gu Baichuan felt aggrieved, his son had already said so, so he stopped pursuing it.
After sighing heavily, Gu Baichuan came to the door of the ICU ward again. After driving away several young policemen surrounding the door, he continued to lie by the door and window alone, staring quietly at Zhang Jingde in the ward.
Seeing that his father was anxious, Gu Chen called Officer Li aside and said politely:
"Senior Brother Li, after all, my dad has been friends with Uncle Zhang for many years. Seeing Uncle Zhang lying in the ward, his emotions will inevitably get a little out of control. Don't mind."
"Harm! Of course I know. You can't blame your father for this. If it were me, I would be the same."
At the end of the sentence, Officer Li still sighed heavily.
At this time, Gu Chen quickly asked: "Uncle Zhang is performing some secret mission?"
"No." Officer Li shook his head in denial.
"It's inconvenient for me to disclose, how did my Uncle Zhang get injured?" Seeing that the issues involved were not confidential, Gu Chen also wanted to find out.
Officer Li sighed quietly and said angrily: "Actually, at the beginning, I didn't know what the situation was?"
"After all, I was patrolling the area with my master before, and then we passed by a store. My master asked me to go to the supermarket to buy some food and said he would put it in the car."
"I asked the master what he wanted to eat. He said he would not eat it himself, but asked me to prepare some because he was going to eat."
"At the beginning, I didn't know where the master was going to eat. Later, after the master was injured, the alarm on my phone suddenly rang. I looked at it and found out that it said that I would come to your house for dinner at noon, so I quickly called
For your family."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! At the end of the sentence, Officer Li sat directly on the steps aside, covering his face with his hands, with a look of regret on his face.
Gu Chen nodded slightly and sat side by side with Officer Li. Then he patted Officer Li on the shoulder and said comfortingly:
"What happened next? How did my Uncle Zhang get injured?"
"I don't know." Officer Li shook his head and said involuntarily:
"I just remember that I was walking around in the supermarket, thinking that the chef was going to have lunch at noon, so he would have to pay for the things I bought."
"I was thinking like this, but when I came to the door, there was no sign of the master."
"I was very puzzled and asked the cashier at the supermarket if he had seen where my master had gone?"
"The clerk said that he saw my master come out of the car and then ran towards an abandoned factory in a hurry."
"Abandoned factory?" Hearing this, Gu Chen felt a little strange, so he quickly asked Officer Li again:
"Where exactly is it?"
"It used to be a car repair shop, but later it became a steel wire factory, wasn't it? Later, this factory building remained abandoned there, in an area with many old houses around it."
"I know where it is." Gu Chen grew up in this area since he was a child. He basically knows the buildings in those areas.
Therefore, when Officer Li just mentioned it casually, Gu Chen could quickly identify the specific location.
Officer Li also nodded silently and continued to explain: "I also heard the supermarket salesperson say this, and I don't know whether the master is looking for a convenient place? Or what to do?"
"So...so..."
After saying this, Officer Li suddenly became extremely regretful and choked up and said:
"So, I really thought that the master was just going for convenience, so I put all the things I bought in the car."
"Then, I stood there stupidly waiting for the master. If I had gone there earlier, the master might not have been injured. I...I really deserve to die."
At the end of the conversation, Officer Li began to feel depressed.
Gu Chen patted him on the shoulder and continued to comfort him: "It's not your fault. After all, it happened suddenly and Uncle Zhang didn't share the information with you in advance."
"Even when an unexpected situation occurred, I didn't notify you immediately, so the responsibility is not yours, but what I want to know is, where did he go?"
"I don't know." Officer Li shook his head, held his head in his hands, and said thoughtfully:
"I have been waiting for a long time, but there is no trace of the master, so I feel something is wrong."
"After all, when I came out of the supermarket, the car was still running and not stalled."
"Because according to the master's habit, if he goes out for a short period of time, it is like going to the roadside to buy a bottle of water or a pack of cigarettes. The vehicle will not turn off, and he will just leave after buying."
"So, the time usually takes a very short time. It is because of this that I keep waiting there. I wonder why the master will come back without even turning off the vehicle. This is not in line with his usual style of doing things."
"So, when I felt more and more that something was wrong, I started to take out my mobile phone and call the master."
"But the ringing tone of the mobile phone came from inside the car."
"In the car?" Hearing this, Gu Chen also looked surprised:
"That means that when Uncle Zhang left, because he was in a hurry, he didn't even remember to take his mobile phone with him? He didn't even have time to turn off the car?" Gu Chen asked.
Officer Li nodded silently: "Yes, that's the situation."
"Because the master's habit was like that before, I feel that he just went out briefly for convenience and should be back soon."
"But when I realized something was wrong, I called and found that the master's cell phone was actually in the car and he didn't take it with him."
"So, I felt a little panicked and felt something was wrong with the master, so I immediately started running towards the abandoned factory based on the information provided by the supermarket salesperson."
"But when I came inside the factory, I found that the master had fallen to the ground and was bleeding heavily from his chest. I was frightened at the time. What was going on? Why was the master injured here?"
"So I didn't have time to think too much and just called 120, and then, it's what I told you before."
At the end of his speech, Officer Li lowered his head again, feeling that he was ashamed of his master.
After Gu Chen understood the basic situation, he also thought about it and said: "If it is what you said, then Uncle Zhang should be waiting for you to buy something in the car, but he accidentally discovered someone he has been tracking.
"
"Since you have been staying in the supermarket and have not come out, the suspicious person may disappear from Uncle Zhang's sight at any time."
"So Uncle Zhang didn't have time to think too much and could only quickly follow the suspect."
"But due to some accidents, Uncle Zhang got into a fight with that person and was stabbed by the other person and fell to the ground. That's pretty much what happened."
"Yes, I feel this is the case too." After hearing Gu Chen's analysis, Officer Li nodded repeatedly.
So Gu Chen quickly asked: "So, have you been following someone recently?"
"Uh, this...well...it seems to be there." Officer Li faltered when faced with Gu Chen's questioning.
Gu Chen asked doubtfully: "Secret?"
"No." Officer Li shook his head and said truthfully: "Gu Bureau, I know you want to know these situations, so I'll tell you the truth."
"Master and I have been working on a case recently. The main suspect in this case has been active in Jiangnan City recently. He should be preparing to do a big business with outsiders."
"Because we have been keeping an eye on these people for a long time, but the strange thing is that these two people have not been arrested."
"Because the person we are investigating has a criminal record before, we will pay special attention to people who have a criminal record."
"So, Uncle Zhang may have discovered the person you have been following at that time, right?" Before Officer Li could finish speaking, Lu Weiwei had already stood aside and listened to the conversation between the two for a long time.
Officer Li looked up at Lu Weiwei and echoed:
"It's possible, and it's very likely."
"What's that person's name?" Gu Chen asked.
"Sangji." Officer Li said.
"What did he do?" Gu Chen asked again.
"There are quite a lot. Specifically, we are still searching for evidence, mainly involving financial fraud in some foreign cities."
"Moreover, this person only targets the elderly and is extremely despicable, so we are prepared to investigate this guy carefully."
"But what a coincidence, after I came back from shopping in the supermarket, Uncle Zhang had disappeared."
"Can you take us to the scene to take a look?" Gu Chen felt that he still had too little information. It was difficult to make the right choice just relying on Officer Li's dictation.
Seeing that the deputy director of Furong Branch wanted to find out the results of the investigation, Officer Li kindly reminded him:
"Of course you can go there, but you must remember that the place has been cordoned off by the police, and the investigation on the suspicious persons is still continuing."
"And the murderer who stabbed the master has not been found yet."
