Epilogue (Epilogue)
"Veterans don't die, they just wither."
From MacArthur's farewell speech, "Veterans Don't Die."
With the passage of time, there will always be some people who will withdraw from the stage of history, and there will always be some young people who will inherit the will of their predecessors and inject fresh blood into the industry.
They are all a group of young people, young people with a lot of enthusiasm and fearlessness and strong convictions.
They are younger than us, and there will be people younger than them.
In the near future, this group of young people will become the absolute backbone.
Maybe after many years, some people and some things will be forgotten by the world and drowned in the long river of history.
Some things will be forgotten, and some things will never be forgotten in this life.
……
In the evening, the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Jing'an City Public Security Bureau.
Lu Ke put a police pistol full of bullets into the holster on his waist.
Two capture teams are also ready.
Tonight, they're going to a second-hand car parking lot to arrest a suspect involved in a homicide.
Jing'an City is not far from Ningzhou City, and is in the same province.
It has been many years since the Ningzhou Serious Crime Team cracked the six-pointed star criminal organization.
During this time, Lu Ke's master was transferred to the Jing'an City Public Security Bureau, and Lu Ke was also transferred to Jing'an City with his master. Lu Ke has worked for many years and has become the head of the criminal investigation team of Jing'an City.
"Team Lu, everything is ready."
A criminal police officer walked into the office of the criminal police team and said seriously.
Lu Ke nodded and said sharply, "Let's go." ”
Everything was going according to plan, and the two arrest teams of the Jing'an City Public Security Bureau, with a total of more than 20 criminal policemen, approached the second-hand car parking lot together.
Not long ago, a serial online car-hailing homicide case occurred in Jing'an City, and a number of online car-hailing drivers were killed.
Lu Ke led the team to immediately crack the case, and the main culprit has been arrested.
The suspect they are now going to arrest is helping the main culprit deal with the stolen ride-hailing services in this case.
In the dark of the night, black enveloped everything in the world.
The moonlight was hazy, the shadows of the trees were swaying, and there was silence between heaven and earth.
In front of their eyes is a huge parking lot for used cars. There are at least nearly 100 used cars and scrapped vehicles for sale.
Some end-of-life vehicles are haphazardly stacked on double-decker viaducts, turning this used car parking lot into a giant labyrinth.
Prior to this operation, the police had conducted a detailed investigation of the route here with drones to ensure that the suspects did not flee through the maze and did not let the capture team get lost.
In the night, there was no light in the second-hand car parking lot, only a faint moonlight provided a faint light for the arrest team.
The two arrest teams searched all the way from the north and south directions, looking for traces of the suspects.
In the end, all the criminal police officers involved in this arrest operation surrounded an abandoned warehouse.
According to the exact information, the suspect usually lives in this abandoned warehouse, and now he is here.
The warehouse has two doors to enter and exit, and has been fully controlled by two capture teams.
Lu Ke held the gun in his right hand and rested it on the wrist of his left hand.
At the same time, he held a police strong light tactical flashlight in his left hand.
"Action!"
With Lu Ke's order, the bright tactical flashlights in the hands of all the police officers lit up at the same time, and the two arrest teams broke in from the front and rear doors at the same time.
The large iron door of the warehouse was opened, and there was a screeching sound from years of non-maintenance.
"Don't move! The police! ”
The warehouse was so empty that an echo could be heard.
The bright light tactical flashlight shines from the front and back doors to the warehouse, allowing everyone to see the furnishings here.
The inside of the warehouse wasn't as big as it might have been from the outside, and the furnishings in front of me were very simple, a shabby purple couch and a single wire bed covered with moldy bedding.
Opposite there was a TV with a broken screen, and the TV was still on, but because it was malfunctioning, it was always a snowflake pattern.
On the other side of the warehouse there is a gas canister and a simple wooden table that makes up a simple kitchen, where some oil-stained kitchen utensils are stacked haphazardly.
Everything indicates that someone has been living here for a long time, and that he is the suspect in this arrest.
"No one?" The detective beside him muttered.
Lu Ke also felt a little surprised, his information could not be wrong, the suspect must be here.
"You can't hear some wind and grass and run away, right?" The criminal policeman beside him was a little deflated and said in a deep voice.
"No way, there is no surveillance in this parking lot, and it is impossible for him to know our movements." Another detective hurriedly added.
Lu Ke froze, put the pistol back into the holster on his waist, and said loudly: "Turn on the lights!" Double-check this warehouse! ”
The detective searched everywhere and finally found a power switch in a corner.
Pushing the switch, the lights on the roof of the warehouse flashed a few times before finally turning on.
There are only three LED bulbs in the entire warehouse, and even if they are all lit, the warehouse is not bright.
"Team Lu! Over here! ”
At this moment, a criminal policeman's shout suddenly came from the empty warehouse, forming a somewhat piercing echo.
Lu Ke and the other detectives immediately ran towards the voice.
In a dark corner of the warehouse, a man sits.
It was a very scruffy man, dressed in stained blue overalls.
The dim light hit him, giving a very vague sense of fear.
He sat in the corner, his head tilted to one side.
Lu Ke turned on the strong tactical flashlight, and the light shone on the man's face, he was the suspect that the police needed to arrest this time.
However, he is dead.
His eyes were open, motionless, and his body was covered in blood, making his blue overalls even dirtier.
"Dead?!" The detective next to him let out a cry of surprise.
"Suicide in fear of sin?!" Another detective looked at the man in front of him and said his opinion.
Lu Ke settled down and walked towards the man.
He crouched down in front of the man, scrutinizing it.
In the next second, Lu Ke's body trembled violently, because he saw something that shouldn't belong here.
On the man's body, there is a six-pointed star metal pendant.
The six-pointed star metal pendant is still reflecting under the strong light of the tactical flashlight......
"Hexagram?!" Lu Ke put on his white gloves, picked up the metal pendant, and muttered subconsciously.
"Impossible, didn't the six-pointed star criminal organization be cracked by the Ningzhou City Serious Crime Team many years ago?" The criminal policeman next to him said seriously.
Whether it's the resurgence of the six-pointed star or the imitation of crime.
Now, it's back......
