Without further ado, Zheng Ming and I went separately to find Li Xinhong. For convenience, I didn't drive, and I rode an electric car and walked the streets and alleys, which was a lot less troublesome.

I think Li Xinhong will definitely hand it over to Jiang Yucheng as soon as he gets the secret recipe. The police have also taken this into account and have sent people to cordon off the station and the airport.

This guy is not a fool either, he will definitely choose the path to leave. Of course, there is another possibility, that is, Jiang Yucheng was originally in the city!

In that case, we would be in danger. When we were Li Xinhong first, the other party was also trying to find a way to deal with us.

I called Hu Muling and told her to be safe. She is a very important witness, and she plays a vital role in bringing down Jiang Yucheng.

Strangely, I called her twice in quick succession, and she didn't answer. I had already made an appointment with her in advance, and she would definitely answer my phone if there were no special circumstances.

Could it be that something happened to her? I felt nervous, and my heart couldn't help but lift.

It was getting late, and I was riding along the river, feeling uneasy. Suddenly, a sound came from the bridge about a hundred meters down the river, and if I heard me correctly, it was gunshot.

I hurriedly rode my bike towards the bridge, and there must have been something serious going on. As I had guessed, as soon as I rode to the edge of the bridge, I saw a woman lying on the bridge in the distance, motionless.

Next to her was a middle-aged man who looked a little sneaky. What is even more suspicious is that when the man saw me, he ran away.

I chased after it almost instinctively, and at the same time, I heard a "plop" sound, as if something had fallen into the river, but I didn't care much at the time, I just chased the man.

Of course, he couldn't run as fast as my electric car, so I told him to stop, but the guy ignored me.

I had no choice but to knock down the middle-aged man with a car, subdue him, and call Zheng Ming.

Zheng Ming was also nearby, and soon came to the scene. After Zheng Ming showed his documents, he directly handcuffed the middle-aged man.

We returned to the bridge and saw the woman who had fallen to the ground. When the two of us saw her, we were really scared.

It's none other than Hu Muling!

I found out that she had been shot, but luckily it was dark and the killer didn't hit her in the fatal spot.

"If you hold on a little longer, I'll call an ambulance right away!" I shouted to Hu Muling, who was already unconscious.

Zheng Ming called the ambulance and grabbed the middle-aged man instead: "You'd better tell me what you did?!" ”

"I, I don't know anything, I walked to the bridge and saw a woman lying there with a shot, and it startled me." The middle-aged man said.

I asked him, "Why did you run away without saying a word when you saw me?" ”

The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, and said with a sad face: "I was really frightened, and I was afraid of getting into trouble, so I ran away." ”

Zheng Ming was suspicious: "Didn't you kill her?" ”

"No, no, no, I think it may have been the murderer's shot from across the river that killed this woman." The middle-aged man hurriedly argued.

I sneered, "Maybe I'm going to disappoint you, she's not dead yet." ”

"Isn't it better not to die, not to die? Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with me. The middle-aged man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said.

"You're lying! She had apparently been hit at close range, and there were scorch marks of gunpowder black on her left chest, which was the most direct evidence. Don't forget, I'm a police officer. Zheng Ming glared at the man and said.

I asked, "When the gun went off, I saw that you were the only one on the bridge, how do you explain it?" ”

I have to say that the man was very flustered on the surface under our repeated questioning, but he was actually very calm.

"Two gentlemen, if you suspect me, even if the body is searched, if you can really find a gun, I will let you dispose of it." Men are anti-customer-oriented.

Zheng Ming and I glanced at each other, and Zheng Ming stepped forward and searched his body, but no pistol was found.

Zheng Ming checked around again, and there was no pistol on the bridge. This surprised us all, it stands to reason that he should have hidden the murder weapon on his body, why didn't he find it?

This is a suspension bridge, 40 meters long and 8 meters wide, and under normal circumstances, criminals would not be able to transfer the murder weapon to another place in such a short period of time.

I remembered the previous scene and immediately said, "I think you threw your gun into the river, and just now I heard the sound of something falling into the water." ”

The man was not in a hurry, and said very calmly: "That was when I was running away, and the laces of my wooden sandals were broken and I couldn't run." In a hurry, I threw it into the river, and if you don't believe it, look at my feet. ”。

He lifted his left foot, and when we saw it, it was really bare, and only his right foot was wearing a wooden sandal.

The man's answer was seamless, and we couldn't help it. Zheng Ming said angrily: "Show your ID card." ”

He took out his ID card and handed it to Zheng Ming. Zheng Ming was stunned: "Your name is Li Yihong?" ”

"yes, what's the problem?" The man asked rhetorically.

The person we are looking for is Li Xinhong, this man's name is Li Yihong, is this a simple coincidence?

At this time, the ambulance came, and Hu Muling was carried into the car. Zheng Ming had no choice but to take the man to the Public Security Bureau as a suspect first, and then we planned to go to the scene to search again the next day.

In our eyes, this Li Yihong is definitely the one who hurt Hu Muling, but we can't find evidence for a while.

Why did Li Yihong hurt Hu Muling, according to my judgment, this guy should have a great relationship with Jiang Yucheng, and Li Yihong is very likely to be Li Xinhong.

Early the next morning, we searched both upstream and downstream of the bridge. The river is only about 15 meters, and the speed of the current is not very fast, if the gun is thrown into the river, it will definitely sink to the bottom of the river within a few meters.

However, we used a lot of tools, even electric detectors, and we found no trace of the pistol.

What the hell is going on here, and what went wrong?

"What the hell did that guy do, can he still make a pistol go missing?" Zheng Ming lit a cigarette next to him and said with a frown.

I shook my head and said, "There must be something wrong, but we haven't found out yet." ”

Zheng Ming's mobile phone rang, and after he finished chatting on the phone, he stepped on the cigarette butt and said happily: "Good news, we can't find a pistol, and this kid can't get away with it." ”

"Oh? Let's hear it. "I was a little surprised.
