Chapter 31: The Leader
At the First Hospital of Hedao City, Lin Tianxiong held an infusion bottle outside the emergency room, anxiously waiting for the results.
The injured person's name is Wu Luqi, who is a waiter at a bar.
He still vividly remembers the tragic situation when he first arrived at the hospital, when Wu Luqi was lying on the bed, he could smell a smell of burnt meat when he got close, his underwear was all burned, his hair was burned, and his face was not human.
The doctor in charge of the rescue immediately judged that more than 80% of the whole body was burned, and immediately called the nurse to establish intravenous access to quickly replenish body fluids, and then contacted the blood bank to prepare a large amount of plasma.
"We'll do our best to save it, but you also have to be mentally prepared for the worst."
After saying this, the doctor went into the emergency room, and three hours had passed since then.
"Wu Luqi must know something, so that he will force the rat to kill the killer."
Lei Wensheng had heard Lin Tianxiong say this sentence over and over again more than ten times.
"But if he hadn't woken up, we wouldn't have known." A living person was burned like this in front of him, and he understood Lin Tianxiong's mood at this time.
"The fact that the rats are in that bar means they must have a connection, and the owner behind the bar should be investigated right now!"
"Calm down, it's not clear that the rat has anything to do with it."
"I saw it! I fought with him, and he confessed to being a rat! ”
"All you see is a mask! Everybody can wear that mask, you know that! ”
"No, I'm sure it must be him."
"Why?"
"Intuition."
"Tenxiong ......"
"I know what you're going to say, but I can feel that the guy in the bar is a rat."
Lei Wensheng knew that he couldn't convince him if he talked about it any longer, so he simply changed the topic: "You said that there was another man in black in the bar at that time, who was he?" ”
Lin Tianxiong shook his head: "I don't know, I don't feel that he and the rats are not in the same group, whether they are friends or enemies, it's hard to say now." ”
"Intuition again?"
"Before I got to Binks's Wine, I met a group of people in the back alley of Pub Street, one of whom I recognized, the one who was Jade. Each of them had a weapon, as if they were going on some mission, and after I knocked them down, there was a phone call to the man in charge, and he just said 'come in through the back door' and hung up. ”
"Are these two things connected?"
"The rat himself admitted to me that he was waiting for people in the bar, and I suspect he was waiting for the people I met, and that the call was from the rat."
"You mean, rats let people into bars with weapons through the back door? So what did he do it for...... Don't? ”
"Yes, let's reconstruct the incident, the rat and the man in black made an appointment to meet at the bar, and a group of people were arranged behind the back, ready to attack the man in black when they met. What he didn't expect was that I had inadvertently sabotaged his plan, which led to a confrontation between him and the Man in Black, and the bottles all over the bar were traces of the fight, and finally the rat subdued the Man in Black, which I saw through the back door. ”
"But what about Wu Luqi? Why is he there? ”
"Wu Luqi's appearance was just an accident, he had been forced into a corner by me, and he escaped while I was in conflict with that group of people, maybe he just saw the back door of the bar open, so he broke in, and he saw something he shouldn't see."
"Then the rats set the fire to destroy the evidence."
"Yes, that's it!"
"It's a possibility." Lin Tianxiong's analysis was reasonable, and Lei Wensheng did not find a flaw for a while.
At this time, the doctor finally came out of the emergency room, and the two hurriedly greeted him.
"How's it going, doctor?"
"The vital signs of the injured have initially stabilized, but we still need to continue to pay attention to the fact that patients with severe burns like him lack skin protection and may be in shock and life-threatening at any time."
"And when will he regain consciousness?"
"The patient also has severe carbon monoxide poisoning, and even if he is out of danger, it will take his own efforts to regain consciousness."
The doctor said very tactfully, the implication is that medicine can no longer do more, and most of the rest depends on Wu Luqi's own creation.
The two thanked the doctor and watched Wu Luqi be pushed into the intensive care unit.
"Your reasoning just now does make sense logically, but why did Wu Luqi run away when he saw you? Is there a link between rats and drug cases? These remain doubts. Ravenson voiced his opinion.
"As you said, if you want to know this, I'm afraid you have to wait for Wu Luqi to tell us in person."
"Regarding the question of why Wu Luqi ran, I think I can explain." A third person suddenly interjected in the conversation between the two.
"Shi Luo? The survey of the site is over? Ravenson looked at his watch, and realized that they had been in the hospital for so long.
"I found this in the bar where Wu Luqi works." Shi Luo took out a evidence bag, which contained some blue crystal powder.
Lin Tianxiong took the evidence bag and looked left and right for a long time but didn't see any reason.
"What is this?"
"The folk call this thing 'Hell Paradise', and the main ingredients are the same as the substances found in the autopsy in the previous case."
"Drugs!" Lei Wensheng and Lin Tianxiong said in unison.
"It's a new type of drug. This drug can amplify the user's emotions, and the happy mood can become extremely happy under its effect, and the same can make people extremely sad if they are sad, and any little stimulus may trigger a strong emotional explosion in the state of taking the drug. ”
Seeing that the two couldn't understand, Shi Luo continued.
"For example, what would you do if someone scolded you?" He asked Lin Tianxiong.
"I'm going to be angry."
"Are you so angry that you want to kill?"
"Surely not."
"If you use this thing, not only will you want to kill someone, but more likely, you will actually kill someone."
"How could it be ......"
"That's what this drug does."
"One thought of heaven, one thought of hell, so is it called heaven and hell?" Ravenson secretly paid.
"And this drug has a strong addictive nature, regardless of the physical impact, but mentally, after experiencing the ultimate emotion, anything that happens in life will seem to taste like chewing wax."
"It's a terrible thing indeed." Ravenson thought that if a violent person came into contact with this thing, it might not only harm himself.
"What's even more terrifying is that this thing only appeared for the first time on He Island about a month or two ago."
"Hey! At this point in time......"
Shi Luo's eyes lit up, and the two immediately understood what he wanted to express.
"It's too much of a coincidence......
"Great, Tianxiong, so that the whole logic is all strung together." Ravenson said excitedly.
"What is all strung together?" Shi Luo was confused.
The two of them gave Shi Luo their reasoning.
"So, do you think that the rat and Qingyu cooperated and participated in the drug trafficking in the bar street, and then there was a mysterious man in black who was regarded as a thorn in their side at the same time, and Wu Luqi inadvertently broke all this to lead to the murder?"
"No, how can good reasoning come out of your mouth to become so weird, but that's what it is." Lin Tianxiong felt that Shi Luo was deliberately finding fault with himself.
"I'm sorry, I don't agree with that."
Lin Tianxiong smiled and said, "Sure enough." ”
"Do you still insist that the MC is at the heart of the matter?" Ravenson asked.
"It doesn't matter what I think, but the MC must have played an important role in the event. On the contrary, I would think that the group of thugs that Officer Lin encountered might find out another incident. ”
Shi Luo's implication is that it has nothing to do with this case.
"Yes, it's still like this, boss, you see, it's not that I don't want to accept him, it's really ...... The Tao is different, and it is not conspiratory. Lin Tianxiong arched his hand and made a gesture of farewell.
"No, maybe we're believing too much in what we're standing on, and if Poirot was here, maybe he'd say a third possibility." Ravenson was really thinking hard.
"Isn't that a mess, you're the team leader, you say how to check now, we'll listen to you." Lin Tianxiong deliberately pulled a big banner, even Shi Luo could not openly oppose the team leader's decision.
But Lei Wensheng did not act according to what he thought, but said: "Since everyone has their own ideas, and they all have their own truths, I believe that the more the reason is discerned, the worse the case is, the clearer it is, now you might as well do it according to your own ideas, if you have responsibility, I will take it for you." ”
At this moment, Shi Luo suddenly understood Director Zhang's intention to choose Lei Wensheng as the leader of the task force.
Although he is confident that he must be better in handling cases, he also clearly understands that as a team leader, he lacks the necessary tolerance.
If the task force was really under his leadership, he would never allow a second thought to be in the team, as he has always done in the past.
It's just that this time to lead elites from various places and fields, IQ alone is obviously not enough, and in this regard, Lei Wensheng can be said to be the best choice.
Although I have fully approved it in my heart, it is impossible to say it on my lips.
"Thank you, team leader, but in the end, it will turn out that I was right."
"Boss, look at him!"
Lei Wensheng smiled, this was the first time Shi Luo officially called him the team leader, and he had a feeling that the time to catch the mouse might not be too far away.
