Chapter 18 The cooked duck was cut off
Although Xu Changlin was frightened, he was clear in his own territory, which alley was shallow, which alley was deep, which night road had pits, and which path had thresholds.
Xiangbei Sports’ experience as a special student, this time he used his skills. He used all his skills and rushed towards Xuchanglin like an arrow.
However, the strong dragon does not defeat the local snake. Xu Changlin turned left and right, and disappeared in a short while.
Going north was almost fainted by the other party, and after several twists and turns, he came to an open area. He vaguely saw the shadows of trees swaying and the dry branches rustling in the cold wind.
This place is so gloomy, a grave?
"I'm running very quickly, where have I been hiding?" Xiangbei put his hands on his hips and whispered in a low voice.
Luo Fangyi also chased after him and also bent down and gasped: "Master, have you caught up with him?"
"Shh!" Xiangbei turned around, stared at Luo Fangyi, and signaled to the other party to be quiet.
He took the flashlight and scanned the surroundings. Through the lamp post, he finally saw the appearance of this area: some piles of weeds and wheat straw piled up in groups of three or two to form buns, and rows of willow trees and sycamore trees surrounded it into a square shape, which seemed to be a wheat field.
The unknown birds occasionally screamed, and their voices were miserable.
Like a crow.
Why is this wheat field more scarier than a cemetery?
At night, people's visual ability is limited, and their auditory function is much stronger. Xiangbei and Luo Fangyi held their breath, and any small movements on the wheat field were magnified several times.
Stir up your ears to the north and listen carefully.
A figure suddenly came out of the wheat pile beside him and rushed towards Luo Fangyi who was close to him.
"Fang Yi, be careful!"
Before the sound of going north fell, the black shadow had already pounced on it.
Before Luo Fangyi could react, she was held heavily and fell to the ground! Fortunately, she was wearing thick clothes and there were scattered wheat straw on the ground, which did not hurt her flesh and blood.
Xu Changlin yelled as if he was crazy and picked up a brick and smashed it at Luo Fangyi.
Seeing this, Xiangbei rushed forward and grabbed Xu Changlin tightly.
Xu Changlin originally pressed Luo Fangyi, but turned to Xiangbei. Xiangbei saw the situation with his left hand, and his right hand clamped the other party's wrist and twisted it suddenly.
If it were another reporter, because he had been in the office all year round, he might not have much combat value.
Xiangbei was a sports student when he was in college, and he had the advantage in both height and physical strength.
Xiangbei pulled Xu Changlin up and first tried to find a way to get Luo Fangyi out of danger. However, the other party smashed him with a brick and hit Xiangbei hard on the forehead. Xiangbei endured the severe pain and held the other party down.
Luo Fangyi escaped from danger, but did not avoid it. Instead, he rushed up and teared Xu Changlin hard from behind, but his strength was too small and he didn't have much effect.
The three of them tear each other together, and the scene was chaotic.
"Xu Changlin, calm down, I don't have any threat to you." Xiangbei still did not give up and tried to convince the other party.
"You are threatening me now." Xu Changlin yelled, "I beg you, can you let me go? I really don't know anything."
As the three were fighting, a rapid sirens were getting closer and closer. The headlights illuminated the entire wheat field. Two police cars and five or six people surrounded them.
"Police! No movement is allowed!"
The three of them stopped like conditioned reflexes, and at the same time turned their faces to look at the police.
"Luo Fangyi, why are you here?" One of the tall policemen suddenly shouted out Luo Fangyi's name, and his tone was a little surprised.
Luo Fangyi covered the strong light with her hands and carefully identified the other party in the backlight of the headlight, "Brother is you?"
"I can't even hear my voice? Who else would I be!" The other party said unhappy.
Several policemen rushed up and controlled the three of them separately.
"Hey hey, give her to me, you guys go and watch them." The tall policeman sent two subordinates away, took Luo Fangyi over, and asked the person next to him, "You are Xu Changlin."
The other party nodded, with a look of fear, completely losing the powerful force just now.
"We suspect that you are related to a case of intentional injury and death. Please come with us."
The tall policeman winked and Xu Changlin was taken to the car.
"who is he?"
"To the north, my master."
"Xiangbei? Oh, I remembered it. You mentioned it to me today, a reporter from Beijiang Evening News."
The tall policeman signaled his subordinates to let go north.
"Hello, I'm Xiangbei."
"Hello, I'm Luo Yuchen." The other party's tone was much more relaxed, "Luo Fangyi, aren't you on a business trip to interview? Why are you in this place?"
"Brother, we are interviewing this." Luo Fangyi replied helplessly.
"Interview? This is the first time I have seen such an interview."
"Luo Fangyi, what's going on? Why am I confused by you?" Xiangbei looked puzzled.
"This is my brother, uh, it's my biological brother, Luo Yuchen, the policeman of Hedong Municipal Public Security Bureau." Luo Fangyi hurriedly explained.
Xiangbei and Luo Yuchen's eyes met, and in just a few seconds, they confirmed their eyes.
"Why do I feel like I have seen you somewhere?" Luo Yuchen tried hard to recall, "Oh, I remembered it. At the scene of the arson case, you wanted to go in for an interview, but I stopped you."
"Yes, I remember it, it's a coincidence."
"It's a coincidence. Why do you remember me deeply every time you appear? And you, Luo Fangyi, tell me what you are doing here in the middle of the night? Do you know that you almost missed my big deal."
"Brother, we have received the news that Xu Changlin will appear tonight. Hey, it's also official business, hey. Hey, by the way, brother, why did you get here?" Luo Fangyi asked back.
"Nonsense, of course I'm here to handle the case, otherwise, it's cold weather, do you think I'm here for a walk?!"
"So, you are also here to capture Xuchanglin?" Xiangbei asked.
"That's right, we have been looking for Xuchanglin these days. Tonight our police platform received a report saying that Xuchanglin would appear at home, so we rushed over. We were originally going straight to Xuchanglin's house, but we passed by here and found something moving, which made us bump into it. Do you know how dangerous you were just now? If we were one step late, I don't know what would happen!"
"So" Xiangbei looked surprised, "So, you also received a report call about Xu Changlin's whereabouts! It's not such a coincidence, right?"
"I won't tell you more, we'll retreat." Luo Yuchen turned around and was about to leave, but turned around, "Girl, the interview is OK, but you must pay attention to safety, do you know?"
Luo Fangyi nodded.
"Oh, by the way, Xiang" Luo Yuchen tried hard to recall the other party's name, "Xiangbei, the murder case in Luohe Village will soon be revealed. I told you this girl for the sake of this girl. Just wait for the public security department to inform you, maybe there will be news in the next few days. Also, thank you for taking care of Fang Yi, she is not well-informed, so you can guide her more in the future."
Xiangbei nodded, but unexpectedly there would be so many coincidences today. First, he and the police received clues from Xu Changlin at the same time; second, he actually met the police again. Luo Yuchen was right, and he appeared in an impressive way every time; third, he did not expect that this person was Luo Fangyi's brother.
"I don't know if these are just coincidences or if someone is intentional." Xiangbei said to himself.
"What did you say, Master?"
"Oh, nothing." Xiangbei wiped away the dust and weeds on his body, "Luo Fangyi, I didn't expect your brother to be a policeman. Why didn't you say it earlier? However, your brother is a cheerful person, and he speaks directly with "bang" haha."
"Hey, Master, don't laugh at me. My brother is nearly 10 years older than me and has always treated me as a child. If he has something inappropriate to say, don't take it to heart. He is like this, probably an occupational disease."
"No, no, I think it's good. The way you met your brother and I were very unique and impressed. Oh, I remember, last time you said you introduced me to my family, right?"
"Well, yes, he is also responsible for investigating the case in Luohe Village. I wanted to introduce you to you, but I didn't expect to meet him on such an occasion."
"It's great to know each other in this way, and it will be unforgettable for a lifetime." Xiangbei laughed again, and then he remembered Xu Changlin's heavy punch, and his forehead was covered with blood.
"Master, are you okay?" Luo Fangyi stared at Xiangbei, "It's all my fault that I'm wrong, I've hurt you. Go back to the hotel quickly and I'll find some ice cubes for you."
When the two returned to the hotel, the sky in the east was slightly white.
"Hello, hotel reception, is there anything you can do for you?"
Luo Fangyi returned to her room and called the front desk of Xincheng Hotel.
"Hello, are there any ice cubes? How many pieces are sent to my room?"
"Okay, you wait."
A few minutes later, the waiter delivered the ice to Luo Fangyi's room.
"Master." Luo Fangyi knocked on the north room, holding a towel wrapped in ice in his hand, "Give it, apply it."
"No, it's nothing serious." Xiangbei gently stroked his injured forehead with his hand.
"Oh, just apply it obediently and find a clinic to deal with it later."
Xiangbei took the towel and pressed it on his forehead: "Xiao Luo, your brother has been responsible for this case since the Luohe Village arson case, right?"
"yes."
"Then he should have some relevant materials in his hand. I wonder if he can reveal some?"
"This," Luo Fangyi was a little embarrassed, "I have never asked about his work. I don't know if he wants to disclose it. I can ask him."
Xiangbei thought for a moment: "Forget it, they have their discipline, don't cause trouble for him. With what I have now, the materials should be almost the same. I guess they will not have more investigations when it comes to land acquisition. I'd better wait for the police press release. I didn't sleep all night last night, and it was quite hard. Let's make up for it. I'll sleep until I wake up naturally, and then I'll invite you out for dinner."
"Okay, Master, let's take a break, too."
Xiangbei closed the door and did not fall asleep. The scene of chasing Xu Changlin in the early morning appeared in his mind again. He said that the arson case had nothing to do with him, but why was he so afraid? There is also the land acquisition matter, why did his reaction be so strong when he mentioned this? Could it be that he really understands the inside story, or, as he guessed, the procedures for the land acquisition project were fabricated by him?
