Brother Chapter 16: The Murderer
I don't know how long it took, but Master Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief. But the suffocating feeling brought by the darkness pouring into the car just now could not be dissipated for a long time.
Master Xu opened his eyes, and there was a dizziness in front of him, as if the blackness that devoured everything was still in front of him.
Master Xu struggled to support his body, and found that he was still in the driver's seat of the car, he watched the leaves under the street lamp outside the car sway with the wind and make a rustling sound, and it took a while to react, the darkness that invaded the car did not know when it had disappeared and receded. Everything is finally back to normal, and it seems that what has just happened is just a hallucination on his part.
Master Xu suddenly remembered Li Dashao, who needed his protection, he quickly turned his head to look at the back seat of the car, and found that it was empty, the door had been opened, and the cool breeze at night broke in unceremoniously.
Master Xu rubbed his head, although the collision just now did not hurt him, the pain still couldn't be avoided.
That Li Shao didn't know when he left, he was drunk like that, and at the same time he was taking drugs with unknown names, so he ran out casually by himself, and it was easy to have an accident.
Master Xu shook his head, forced himself to adapt to the weightlessness that had not completely disappeared, pushed open the door, and prepared to get out of the car to check first.
The car door opened, and the night breeze came in front of him, carrying not only the rare coolness of summer, but also the heavy bloody atmosphere that made Master Xu's heart jump suddenly.
Master Xu landed on his feet, but he froze directly on the spot, he slowly turned his head, looking for the source of the bloody breath, and a miserable hellish scene appeared in front of him that shocked him.
More than twenty years have passed since the most recent war in the Empire, the rebels have long since disbanded and disappeared, and even though Master Xu has served in the army for many years, he still has little chance to touch the real battlefield.
And, now he believes, even a real battlefield will not be so disturbing.
The ground more than a dozen steps away from Master Xu was blurred with flesh and blood, and some inexplicably shaped minced flesh was scattered one by one, as if someone had discarded it casually.
A body was lying in a pool of blood, life and death were unknown, and a strange back figure climbed on it, undulating, and from time to time there was a heavy chewing and tearing sound, and Master Xu's scalp was numb when he listened.
Master Xu couldn't see strangers clearly by looking through the moonlight and street lights, but he could recognize through his fancy pants and shoes that the torn body was the Li Dashao he was looking for.
Blood flowed out from under Li Qiyi's body, dripping everywhere, but he let the other party do it, leaving only his hands and feet twitching from time to time, but it couldn't prove that he was still alive.
Master Xu gasped, the scene that appeared in front of him was not so much a battlefield as a slaughterhouse.
Master Xu's forehead was bruised, and cold sweat soaked his back in an instant, he didn't think about it, and raising his hand was a shot.
There was an extremely rich black at a certain point behind the figure, which condensed almost at the same moment as the gunshot, and in an instant, Master Xu's inevitable shot disappeared.
Master Xu had just noticed that this stranger had a vague sense of unreality in the dark night, like a floating shadow gently rippling on the surface of the water. The figure was shaken by the momentum of the bullet, and it didn't seem to have suffered any direct damage, but because of this, he noticed Master Xu behind him and turned his head to look behind him.
Master Xu was a little flustered, but the soldier's instinct still allowed him to fire the second shot steadily.
The gunshot rang out, tongues of fire came out, but the bullets were still like stones sinking into the sea, and the other party stared at Master Xu expressionlessly, not showing half of the pain that should be caused by the gun.
Only then did Master Xu see the other party's appearance clearly, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, standing in front of him was a young man about the same age as Li Qiyi.
If it weren't for the bloodstains on his face, Master Xu would never have associated this cruel mess with the young man in front of him.
Master Xu stared at the young man, who was extremely calm, and did not have any mood swings even in the face of the threat of guns.
But strangely, his eyes are reversed in color and turn into weird black eyes and white pupils.
"Don't move!" Master Xu's gaze moved back and forth on the strange young man and Li Dashao, still holding his pistol, but he never fired a third shot.
The task assigned by the commander was ruined, and Governor Lee's only son was lying on the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. What he has to do now is to catch the murderer, and pray to God that this Li Da Shaofu will pick up a life, otherwise his life will probably be ruined today.
But now the person on the other side doesn't seem to be afraid of guns, obviously not like normal humans, which has exceeded Master Xu's expectations. He was beating a drum in his heart, facing the current situation, let alone arresting people, he was not even sure how he should save his life.
At this moment, Master Xu saw a smoky black rise from the other party's feet, gradually converging behind him. At first, Master Xu thought it was his own dazzle, until the darkness condensed and swayed behind the stranger like a long tail, that he realized that the darkness that had invaded him just now came from this strange young man.
The young man slowly bowed his body, like a wild beast hunting.
Master Xu's heart was drumming, and the palms of the gun were full of sweat, and he felt slippery and greasy, as if the gun would come out of his hand if he continued to work hard like this.
Just when Master Xu had already begun to feel that his whole body was starting to stiffen, there was the sound of vehicles passing by in the distance, and the roar of the engine came from far and near.
"Hands up!!" a panicked voice sounded behind him, and then the alarm bell rang out, and the pistol was loaded, "No one is allowed to move!!!You!Put down the gun!!"
It's the police.
Of course, Master Xu didn't dare to put down the gun, but he didn't want to risk being shot either.
"I am Xu Zhengtang, the captain of the 37th team of the garrison of the Fifth District! I was ordered to protect Li Qiyi, the son of Governor Li, please verify! But please be careful, don't let the person in front of me escape, he is the murderer of Governor Li's son!!"
Xu Zhengtang didn't dare to look back, he didn't know if the person in front of him had any special means to attack him, he didn't want to take risks, and he didn't want the murderer to leave his sight and escape. Since today's incident involved himself, if he couldn't give a reasonable explanation, he didn't dare to imagine how Governor Li would target him in anger, and even the chief would not be able to protect himself in the face of Governor Li's anger.
Although he knew that it was useless, Xu Zhengtang's muzzle was still aimed at the young man's vital point, and there was a sound of urging behind him again, and he could hear the footsteps of someone approaching.
Xu Zhengtang was slightly distracted, and at this moment, the night in front of the strange young man suddenly darkened, and the scene that was originally the night disappeared without a trace in an instant, as if a black hole appeared out of thin air, devouring everything in front of him.
Xu Zhengtang's heart was shocked, he fired, and two gunshots rang out behind him almost at the same time, and he could feel a bullet whistling past his arm.
"Don't move!!" shouted the policeman behind him.
The black hole disappeared, and the young man disappeared with it, Xu Zhengtang was angry and afraid. Now that the gun was useless, he was worried that he would be indiscriminately killed by two policemen, so he had to throw down the gun and let the two hold him down from behind.
After controlling Xu Zhengtang, a policeman went up to check on Li Qiyi, who was lying motionless on the ground, Xu Zhengtang was pressed to the ground, and only a little silhouette could be seen.
The policeman was stunned for a moment, then retched a few times.
"Lao Li, it's really Li Shao," the policeman who came forward to check turned around and signaled, "It's only half of his face left, and his stomach has been torn open." ”
"What about this guy?" asked the policeman who was pressing on Xu Zhengtang.
"He just said he was the commander of the garrison?"
It didn't take too long to identify him, Xu Zhengtang was let go, but the two policemen still didn't let their guard down.
Xu Zhengtang looked at the two pale faces in front of him and knew what the two of them were thinking.
"This is your precinct, isn't it? Rather than worrying about how to explain to the governor here, you should follow me to find the murderer. Xu Zhengtang put away the gun.
The two policemen glanced at each other, and quietly raised the muzzle of their guns with both hands.
The small movements of the two people couldn't escape Xu Zhengtang's eyes, and he sneered, "Don't think about falsifying this case, you think that Governor Li and the army are those ordinary people under your jurisdiction, so easy to fool?"
Even if the old fritter is not in the oil and salt, the policeman who just had a little crooked mind was broken in front of him, and the two faces still showed a little sneering expression.
Xu Zhengtang looked left and right, the murderer had long since disappeared, he pondered for a moment, and stopped talking for a while.
Lao Li retracted the gun from his waist and signaled that he had no other thoughts, "Then Chief Xu...... What do you think we're going to do next?"
"Do you remember the murderer's dress?" Xu Zhengtang looked at Lao Li, and the other party nodded hurriedly.
Xu Zhengtang nodded and said to the other policeman: "Go and call an ambulance, you stay here and prepare to escort Li Shao to the hospital." ”
Li ...... Li Shaodu is like this...... Or call an ambulance?" asked the other policeman, pale.
Xu Zhengtang grabbed his collar, gritted his teeth and whispered, "Li Shao is dead or alive, it's not our turn to speak, understand?"
He pushed away the trembling policeman and continued: "When the ambulance arrives, notify your director, tell you what the murderer in the bureau is wearing, and ask them to send someone to check the video along the street, and then check the people who have had a conflict with Li Shao recently, to see if there is any gain, so that everyone you can send will be dispatched immediately, and tell your director, if you can't catch anyone tonight, no one wants to have good fruit to eat." ”
Speaking of this, Master Xu thought that this unwarranted disaster would also implicate himself, and couldn't help sighing, "Another, Lao Li, right? You come with me, let's start from the nearby streets and alleys, one by one," Xu Zhengtang didn't look at the two of them, and lowered his head to pick up the gun, "Since you let the murderer go, if I can't find anyone before dawn, I will report to the upper echelons truthfully." ”
The faces of the two hapless policemen were even more ugly.
