Chapter 293 Emergency situation on the third day of the new year
Lao Hu was forced to have no choice but to give up drawing his gun. Taking advantage of his height and long legs, he kicked the opponent's knee while shouting, "You dare to kill ng'an!"
But the man remained unmoved. He flipped his wrist and the sword flashed, leaving a deep wound on Lao Hu's thigh.
Lao Hu groaned and staggered, giving him a premonition that something was not good.
The enemy was not only an expert in using knives, but also very insidious and cunning. The stabbing he had just done in the ribs was actually a feint to force him to strike back and take the opportunity to injure his thigh so that he could not escape.
Lao Hu cursed in his heart, the other party obviously had no intention of saving his life...
The next morning, the third day of the Lunar New Year.
Today is the last day of the Spring Festival holiday.
And because the third day of the Lunar New Year is the Red Dog Day, it is easy to offend the Red Dog and conflict with others, so according to the past customs, we do not go out or pay New Year greetings.
Although Du Fei is not that particular, he is going to work soon, so it seems good to stay at home and do nothing for a day.
Therefore, although he woke up early in the morning, he still stayed in bed until after nine o'clock, and only got up when he felt hungry.
Yesterday, as expected, Xiaowu didn't come back all night.
Du Fei used his vision to check simultaneously all morning.
I found that the thing was still blocked in the abandoned drainage pipe. It seemed that it was really fighting with the crow.
Du Fei withdrew his sight and was too lazy to care about him.
After washing my face and brushing my teeth, I took out two hot steamed buns from my pocket and made a cup of malted milk. It was breakfast...
After eating two buns, I was half full.
Du Fei licked his lips, feeling that he still had more to say, so he simply took out another slipper.
At this moment, there was a sudden and rapid knock on the door of his house.
Du Fei couldn't help but be stunned.
Immediately afterwards, before he could ask anyone, the voice of Xiao Wang from the street office came from outside: "Brother Du~Brother Du~ open the door quickly!" "
Before the Chinese New Year, Xiao Wang specially paid his New Year greetings to him in advance. Why did he come here again?
And from Xiao Wang's urgent tone, it was obvious that something was urgent.
Du Fei quickly went over to open the door and saw Xiao Wang outside the door sweating profusely and wheezing.
Seeing Du Fei, Xiao Wang didn't allow him to speak and rushed to say, "Brother Du, hurry up, there's an emergency!"
When Du Fei saw him like this, he knew it wasn't time to talk nonsense.
I immediately went back to the house to change clothes and put on shoes, and came out again in less than two minutes.
However, he did not expect that such a situation would happen today. The bicycle was lent to Yan Jiecheng and his wife, so they could only ride one bicycle with Xiao Wang.
Before arriving at Du Fei's house, Xiao Wang had already gone to several places and was very tired.
Du Fei simply asked for the car and asked Xiao Wang to sit on the back frame. The two of them hurried out of the courtyard and went straight to the street to go to work.
On the way, Du Fei had time to ask what was going on.
Xiao Wang sat in the back, took a few breaths and said, "Brother Du, something happened last night. Someone died at Chaoyang Gate. The higher-ups have ordered a city-wide search, and we are fully cooperating with the neighborhood committee below."
Du Fei took a deep breath when he heard this.
This is no small matter.
Dare to attack ng'an, this is a naked provocation and will never be tolerated.
Moreover, in this day and age, such ruthless people are likely to be latent elements of the enemy's agents.
Xiao Wang did not forget to remind him, "Brother Du, a classmate of mine is at the police station over at Chaoyangmen. I heard he said that his gun was also lost. Let's be careful!"
Du Fei said "hmm" and suddenly remembered that he went to Wang Xiang's house yesterday and met the suspicious man in their front yard.
Isn't that right near Chaoyang Gate?
Du Fei frowned while riding his bicycle.
He couldn't explain why this seemingly unfounded association occurred.
I met the man yesterday. Although he looked a bit vicious, he didn't look like someone who would dare to kill anyone, let alone a police officer.
Du Fei thought while speeding up.
Originally, his home was not far from the street office, and since he rode fast, he arrived at his work in a few minutes.
By this time, more than half of the people from the street office had arrived.
Director Wang also arrived. He did not enter the office in the inner courtyard, but stood on the steps of the second courtyard.
He was wearing a Type 65 military uniform on his upper body, with an armed belt tied around his waist. The black pistol grip was exposed from the leather gun holster of some age.
Director Wang's expression was serious as he watched people coming in from the door one after another.
Seeing her posture, the people below also became nervous.
The leaders all stood in the courtyard, and others were not allowed to sit in the office.
Fortunately, the front yard is very spacious, and the street office can accommodate a hundred people.
Du Fei and Xiao Wang parked their bicycles and immediately walked over when they saw Section Chief Qian and Zhu Ting.
Although Xiao Wang mentioned some situations just now, they were only approximate.
Du Fei went over, lit a cigarette for Section Chief Qian, and asked, "Section Chief, what's going on?"
Section Chief Qian looked serious and whispered, "You know about the New Year's Eve thing, right?"
Du Fei nodded.
On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Chen Zhongyuan left without even eating, which shows that this matter is definitely not a big deal.
Du Fei didn't connect these two things together just now, but now looking at Section Chief Qian's meaning, it is obvious that these two things are actually the same thing.
Du Fei He frowned.
He still doesn't know who was killed or injured on the 30th night, and he can't make any further judgment.
But what is certain is that the murderer must be extremely vicious and will never be stingy about killing a few more people.
At this time, Director Wang saw that almost everyone had arrived, so he didn't wait any longer and reached out to pick up a big iron horn.
This kind of iron horn does not have a speaker, but it can collect sound through the mouth of the horn, and it can also play some roles.
Director Wang picked up the big iron trumpet and said to the crowd, "Comrades, while people across the country are celebrating the festival, the enemy has touched our capital..."
Director Wang's speech, to be honest, was not wonderful. It lacked parallel sentences to increase the sense of power; it lacked extreme words to increase incitement; it also lacked hysterical body language and a majestic voice that sounded like reciting an epic poem.
But she still succeeded in stimulating everyone's enthusiasm.
In this era, there is really no need for those complicated techniques and gorgeous rhetoric.
Just saying "comrades, come with me" is enough.
Although Director Wang is a woman, she started working during the Anti-Japanese War and even lurked behind enemy lines with the Chu Red Army.
It was that experience that made her and Chu Hongjun's lies come true, turning from comrades-in-arms into husband and wife.
Therefore, although Director Wang is usually like the aunt next door, at critical moments, he is absolutely decisive.
Director Wang's speech only lasted more than a hundred words, and he had clearly allocated everyone's work.
Some are divided into neighborhood committees, and some are linked to the police station.
There is also a dedicated person responsible for contacting the municipal bureau and sub-bureau directly in case of emergency.
Director Wang personally led a heavily armed militia company to conduct a dragnet search within the street area, making sure not to let go of any suspicious persons.
