Chapter Seventy-Nine: Inspection
Watching Hong Qin and Ru Jing disappear into the rain, I sat in the passenger seat and closed the door, Ruan Yang did not start the car immediately, but kept staring at the time on the dashboard, I understood that he was waiting for Ru Jing and them to approach their destination. But being silent like this makes people feel embarrassed and even suffocated.
"What Hong Qin said just now, what do you think of the identities of the four of us?" I broke the silence and wanted to lighten the mood.
"What do you think?" Ruan Yang glanced at me and asked back without any heat.
"She said the four of us were cops, suspects, undercover agents and killers, ready to save an informant."
"Hmm."
"I'm a police officer, and you're a suspect, so who is the undercover agent and who is the killer?"
Ruan Yang slowly turned his head and looked directly at me, his eyes were so cold that it made people tremble.
"If you dare to reveal Ru Jing's identity, I will kill you now."
"I, I won't say it, I won't say it, don't worry." I quickly waved my hand and shook my head, hoping that he would believe me. The sense of justice he had hoarded for many years instantly collapsed under his deterrence.
"You better always remember! I don't care about one more offense. Nguyen Duong continued his threats.
"Remember, remember!"
Ruan Yang retracted the murderous aura in his body and regained his composure. I can't help but wonder if I'm sick and why I mention this stubble.
"Well, what kind of person is Ru Ling? Each of you keeps mentioning this name, what kind of person is he? I tried to change the subject again.
"Someone very important to Ru and me."
"So, what kind of person is he?"
"Warm, sunny, frank, warm." Ruan Yang held back for a long time, and only popped out these few adjectives. I shook my head helplessly, men describe men, especially people like Ruan Yang, and describe their good friends, it is estimated that there are only so many.
But think about it, Ru Ling should be like this, otherwise how could he be friends with someone like Ruan Yang, and how could Ru Ling miss and like it so much.
"So you two can only be friends because you have complementary personalities?" I mustered up the courage to ask.
Ruan Yang raised his eyes to look at me again, his lips moved, but he didn't speak.
"Do you like Ru Cana?"
"If you have time, think about what the bandits will say when you see them later." He started the car angrily and prepared to go.
"I can see it if you don't say it, I'm so fierce to me, I can't say a word when I see Ru Jing. You're either afraid that she's going to die, or you're overwhelmed by what she likes. I pulled my seatbelt over and muttered to myself. I felt that Ruan Yang was too useless, if I liked anyone, I would tell him, why should I endure it, endure it until he ran away with others, how sad I am.
With a screech of brakes, before I could fasten my seatbelt, the whole person rushed out of the way, banging on the window.
"What are you doing!" I rubbed my head and looked out the window, thinking I had hit something.
"Remind you to pay attention to the wording, and don't forget that you are still a hostage." Although Ruan Yang was threatening me again, it was obvious that he was quite satisfied with his prank, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"I haven't forgotten, and you don't forget, I'm also a police officer." I shot back.
"Humph!" Ruan Yang let out a contemptuous snort from his nose. "No wonder there have been more thieves in recent years, it turns out that newcomers are like you! Ru Jing only used one move, less than 3 seconds. Ruan Yang drove with great interest, teasing me.
"That's better than you, you didn't even dare to do it."
"You don't even have a chance to do it, and you're embarrassed to be hard-mouthed."
"What are you proud of, you may not be able to beat Ru Jing, otherwise why wouldn't Hong Qin take you to save people. I also have to trouble Ru Jing to make a move. ”
Ruan Yang glared at me, this time he didn't speak, it seemed that he had poked his sore spot again, and I was smug that I finally got back a game.
"You know what!" After holding it for a long time, Ruan Yang suddenly came up with such a sentence. Before I could react, the car was parked in front of an abandoned factory.
A 6-meter-wide iron gate sits across the roadside, and behind the gate is a small three-story building, which appears to have been originally used for offices. At the back of the small building, there are three rows of longitudinally arranged simple factories, and the roof of each factory is painted with blue paint, the paint surface has faded, mottled under the rain, and the rust color is made with a knocking sound. The door of the factory opened to the side, facing the large undeveloped wasteland, and on the other side facing the site of the unfinished building next door.
I peered through the window of the car and through the rain curtain to take a closer look at my surroundings, wondering where they would sneak in. Such a heavy rain, such a fierce wind, is indeed a good cover.
Nguyen Duong parked the car outside the iron gate, unbuckled his seat belt, pinned the gun behind him, and threw me only a fruit knife. I looked at him and almost laughed.
"You, you're too much, shouldn't you take care of me as a girl?"
"Didn't you just say you were a police officer?"
"The police are armed with guns."
"Policewomen's guns are usually for bandits." Ruan Yang unceremoniously came back.
"You're sexist."
"No, it has nothing to do with gender, I'm just discriminating against you."
"You, I'm not going."
"He also said that he was a policeman, which policeman would be angry and not get out of the car on the way to handle the case."
After Ruan Yang finished speaking, he pulled out his umbrella from under the seat of the car and got out of the car. I had to follow behind with a fuss. Trotted all the way to his umbrella to hide from the rain.
As soon as we stood at the door, a man dressed as a doorman ran out of the office building, holding a broken umbrella in his hand, and yelled at me and Ruan Yang impatiently.
"What for?"
Ruan Yang didn't speak, and looked down at me. I stupidly took out my police badge to show the visitor, and the doorman's face instantly stiffened, and he barely smiled.
"Hello officer, what's the matter?"
"We received a report that there are suspicious people around here recently, suspected to be a recently wanted murderer, come and see, is there anyone else in it?"
"No, this place has long been abandoned, and I'm alone guarding the door."
"Really?" Ruan Yang said expressionlessly.
"Yes, yes, besides, on such a typhoon day, who would come to this wilderness."
"That's right, it's raining so heavily, let's go in and take shelter before leaving." Ruan Yang pushed the boat with the water.
"Ahh This one? The doorman looked a little embarrassed.
"What? Inconvenience? Ruan Yang deliberately showed a skeptical expression.
"No, no, it should be, it's raining so heavily, go in and have a cup of tea, wait for the wind to light up and then go, it's safer." Two please. ”
With that, the doorman opened the iron gate and let us in. We followed him, scanning the entire factory as we went. It does look abandoned, empty, and you can't even see what it used to do.
"That, officer, a few of my friends are inside, and they have nothing to do on a rainy day, so everyone will get together to play cards, this, it's not illegal."
"It's a small bet, it's not tight. Anyway, I can't leave for a while, and I want to join in the fun. Ruan Yang borrowed the slope again.
"Didn't you just say no one?" I scared him from the sidelines.
"I mean there's no bad guys, they're all friends, friends are here." The doorman hastened to explain.
"How many people are there?"
"Count me, eight."
"It's just two tables of mahjong, so it's not like I don't have a chance to play two." Ruan Yang still looks like he wants to fish in troubled waters.
"We're here on official business, why do you keep thinking about playing?" I can see that Ruan Yang's style is still a little similar to the master.
"It's raining so hard, even if you still want to perform official duties, the thieves are not as diligent as you." Ruan Yang said sneeringly. "Brother, wait a minute, you can take my little junior sister around, let her finish her official duties, what about me, how about playing two for you?" Ruan Yang pulled the doorman and said very casually.
"It should be, it should be." The doorman was easy to deceive, led the two of us into the office building, went up to the second floor, and walked to the far left near the wasteland, there was a large office, in which there were a few sofas, two tables, sure enough, there were 7 people sitting neatly, 2 decks of cards, and a room full of smoke.
Seeing the three of us walk in, all seven people in the room stopped their cards and stared at us blankly. There was a thin black man, who seemed to be a small leader. He stood up, walked up to us, and looked at Ruan Yang and me suspiciously.
"Lao Wu, who asked you to bring people in, didn't you tell you that no one is allowed to come in?"
"Brother Hei, these two are police officers from the city bureau, and they came here for routine inspections, and it rained heavily, so I let them in to avoid them before leaving." The doorman named Lao Wu interrupted Brother Hei's words and hurriedly explained.
I took out my badge again and shook it in front of Brother Hei. "An abandoned factory, does it need so many people to watch?"
"No, it's just that there is nothing to do on a rainy day, everyone gets together to play cards, not to see the factory, not to see the factory." Lao Wu explained again.
"Don't be suspicious all the time, I said Lao Wu, take her for a walk, I'll play with my brothers." Ruan Yang urged.
"Good! Good! Then sit down first, Brother Hei, you help me play with the police officer for a while, and I will take such a female police officer to the factory area. ”
"Okay, take the officer to take a good look." Brother Hei repeated.
"I said girl, don't take it too seriously, just mean it, just give a reply to the boss if there's nothing to do, don't let them be old Cui, this bad weather, who doesn't want to go home from work early." Ruan Yang told me again. I understood that he was saying this to these people, and I was afraid that I would be taken out and killed.
"You know you're lazy." I didn't have the heart to say it.
"Don't make a small report, otherwise I will write unqualified on your internship appraisal." Ruan Yang winked at me.
I pretended to be resentful, turned around and walked out, and Lao Wu hurriedly followed. Behind him, Ruan Yang's laughter sounded, followed by the crackling sound of mahjong. This is not bad, he dragged 7 by himself, I just need to pull Lao Wu around the factory to see where it is suspicious.
With that in mind, we're already on the first floor. I picked up the umbrella at the door and prepared to go out.
"Officer, there are three hollow factories in the back, why don't you look at one. It rained so hard that I got wet when I went out," Lao Wu began to find a way to lobby me.
"Look at the empty ones too."
"What's so nice about the empty one."
"What are you hiding? Isn't it empty-hearted? ”
"What's the matter, I'm not doing it for your good, I see that you are a newcomer, so serious and worthy of admiration, but we have nothing, wasting your time in vain, it's not worth it."
"Less nonsense, just lead the way quickly." Saying that, I held up the umbrella and walked into the wind and rain, Lao Wu had to pick up his broken umbrella, grab a few steps, and run in front of me to lead the way.
I followed behind, looking at the heavy string of keys he was carrying, and a dangerous thought suddenly sprung up in my heart.
