The boat finally docked amidst the hail of bullets, and a figure staggered up the river bank and hurriedly fled into the darkness.
Duan Xi could tell from his back that he was the one who recognized him. He escaped twice in a row. Not only was he lucky, but he was also really capable. But this time he was not lucky. From the way he escaped, he could tell It looked like he must have been injured.
The gunfire stopped and there was dead silence.
Everyone knows that the garrison is ruthless and decisive, but this time we saw it with our own eyes.
Suddenly, there was a sad cry and curse from the river, coming from the male hostage swimming in the center of the river.
Duan Xi and the other security officers were stunned and didn't know what to say. Shen Lan silently helped the unconscious female hostage and stared blankly at the lonely boat opposite.
At this moment, the cry of a child suddenly came from the small boat.
So the sheriffs immediately cheered - that girl is really lucky!
Of course, I also hope that the hostage left on the boat is really killed, otherwise the girl will still be in danger.
At this moment, Duan Xi jumped directly into the river and swam desperately to the other side. Since the water quality and strength were far superior to that of the male hostage, he arrived at the other side first in a short while. He carefully climbed onto the boat and saw the girl in distress. Sitting helplessly in the boat.
Next to the girl was the fugitive who failed to escape. Her body was beaten to pieces in several places.
"If your conscience has not been completely eliminated, you will be spared two levels of guilt after going to hell." Duan Xi scolded.
He said this because the fugitive finally allowed the girl to stand in front of his chest, but he did not do so.
Of course, in the face of those arrogant sailors, even if the fugitive did this, he would just die with the girl. But from the psychology of many criminals, when they are desperate, they will often have a revenge mentality of "pulling a support" .
Fortunately he didn't do that.
Duan Xi, who was all wet, hugged the girl and jumped to the other side, suddenly lying down on a piece of grass. At this moment, the fugitive who went to ride the horse, the task of going to the horse, could save a little life more than anything else. more meaningful.
The father of the girl finally arrived at the shore, snatched the child and held her in his arms, refusing to let go. When the mother of the child on the other side learned that her daughter was fine, she burst into tears as if she had been robbed for the rest of her life.
The speedboat also arrived nearby, and the young commander led a few well-equipped soldiers ashore. He glanced at Duan Xi and others with cold eyes, and sent someone to check the bodies of the fugitives on the boat, cursing something.
"You guys are so reckless, brother!" Duan Xi said from behind, "The fugitive has such a young hostage in his hands, and you all shoot so brazenly? Even the fugitive doesn't have the heart to kill the kid with him!"
The young officer stopped and turned around, staring at Duan Xi coldly: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
At this time, Duan Xi could clearly see the man's face. He was handsome and handsome, and his tall figure was only less than an inch shorter than Duan Xi. He looked very heroic in a major's military uniform.
It's just that he may be a little arrogant, and he seems to disdain to argue with Duan Xi.
Perhaps, he didn't bother to argue with the Sheriff, because Duan Xi was now wearing the uniform of a Sheriff.
"Is there anything wrong?" Duan Xi stood up and said, "Isn't it that you put on this military uniform to protect the country and the people? Although the girl is small, she is also a 'citizen' and is also the object of your protection."
The young officer sneered disdainfully: "First, I didn't know there was this child on the ship. Second, even if I knew, I still have the power to deal with it in an emergency. Each of these fugitives with heinous crimes can threaten dozens or more. Hundreds of lives. If one person can be sacrificed in exchange for the safety of the entire city, I think it is worth it."
Duan Xi: "Human life is not such a simple addition and subtraction."
"Whatever, if you are not convinced, you can go to the garrison headquarters and sue me. My name is Kang Yuqian, the acting battalion commander of the garrison naval battalion."
Hey, he looks like he has never been beaten by society... Duan Xi is too lazy to argue with him about this.
Kang Yuqian then ordered the soldiers on the speedboat to take away the body of the fugitive who had just been killed.
Duan Xi: "Alas, this is an arrest operation conducted by the Department of Public Security. The body and the scene must be kept."
Leaving the body behind might give Shen Lan some credit.
But Kang Yuqian sneered: "You can have this body if you want, just ask my brothers if they agree!"
As he said that, the sailors picked up their guns one by one.
"Okay, okay, take it, take it, you guys are awesome."
…
After a while, Shen Lan and others came around from the bridge in the distance, and a group of people were filled with indignation. Everyone was busy all night, and Shen Lan and Duan Xi even risked their lives to arrest them, but they got no credit in the end.
On the contrary, that fool Kang Yuqian led his troops to shoot randomly and captured a fugitive. He should be able to record it when he returns.
"It's this idiot again!" Shen Lan was very angry.
Duan Xi: "He is very famous?"
"The nephew of General Kang Zhen, commander of the garrison and commander of the security brigade. With such a good uncle, he has risen through the ranks."
No wonder.
Kang Yuqian became company commander not long after he graduated from the military academy, and was promoted to deputy battalion more than a year later. The naval battalion commander was vacant a while ago, but he was promoted too quickly. His continued promotion was suspected of violating personnel procedures. He was given an "acting battalion commander".
But there is no doubt that once the term of serving as deputy battalion is barely reached early next year, the word "agent" will be removed immediately.
However, Duan Xi also glanced at Shen Lan and thought that if you didn't have the good uncle of the Shen family, you might not be able to become the director so quickly, and you are already qualified to be promoted to deputy director.
"What are you looking at?"
"I see that Sister Lan has been busy most of the night and is a little haggard."
"To do something for this city, it doesn't matter if I look haggard. It's a pity that I don't get any credit at all."
Duan Xi: "Fortunately, after this, these guys will no longer be hiding on the Xia He. As long as they are outside, it should be easier to find them."
Shen Lan nodded and said: "Please go back and tell Mr. Ge to search more and pay more attention in the underground world of Little Paradise. I will also ask Dusha to increase the search intensity in other areas."
The reason why I cooperated with Duan Xi in the first place was because Duan Xi was really capable, and secondly because Chen Ange had extensive informants in the underground world. Moreover, Chen Ange and Duan Xi were assassinated at the same time, so there must be motivation to track down these guys.
Duan Xi agreed and asked curiously: "But how come the garrison is also responsible for public security incidents in the city?"
The function of the garrison is external, to defend against invasion by bandits, and more importantly, against rebels like the Shuguang Organization. The Public Security Department is generally responsible for security matters within the city.
Unless there is a large-scale riot in the city, a formal invitation must be issued after collective discussion by the Government Affairs Department before the garrison can participate in quelling the riot in the city.
Shen Lan: "It's not that these gangsters are too arrogant, our security system is not strong enough. Especially the strength on the water is even more lacking, there is not even a mechanical speedboat. In order to get rid of these gangsters before the inspection team arrives, The Government Affairs Department invited the garrison to take charge of the security of the Heishui River, Peach Blossom Creek and other waters."
Danjiang City has a rich water system, with two large rivers passing through the city and forming a huge lake in the south of the city. Only then was a battalion of sailors formed, with a total strength of more than 300 people.
They were usually responsible for the defense of the lake outside the city and the entrances to and from the two large rivers, but now they had detached a company to capture those dragons crossing the river.
Duan Xi looked at the sailor speedboat going away on the water, thinking.
"They started shooting randomly as soon as they came up. The momentum showed that they had no intention of leaving anyone alive, and their methods were too radical."
Shen Lan: "Do you suspect that they are not here to enforce the law and arrest people, but to kill people and silence them?"
Duan Xi curled his lips and thought to himself, it's not like I haven't seen such cruel work before. That time, the Dragon Crossing the River failed to assassinate Chen Ange, and didn't he kill their companions when they fled.
And if the garrison also has some shady connection with these river-crossing dragons, it will be even more troublesome.
So Duan Xi asked back: "If there is no problem, how come the naval battalion responded so quickly? You borrowed the water patrol team from the Public Security Department, not their naval camp."
"I guess... the superiors asked them to jointly enforce the law."
Even if they were asked to jointly enforce the law, it would still take some time, so Shen Lan didn't have much confidence when she said this.
Duan Xi: "Then how did the Xiahe know in advance that we were going to search?"
There was no telephone on the ship, and there were no mobile phones in this era, so someone must have gotten the news and hurriedly boarded the ship to notify the river crossing dragons on the Xiahe.
The speed is simply too fast!
Because Shen Lan didn't delay at all after reporting to her superiors, and went straight to the Xia He.
That is to say, it only took a few minutes for the news to come out of Shen Lan's mouth, and the Xiahe ship had already got the news - the secret was leaked so fast!
Shen Lan: "Do you suspect that there is a mole in our Public Security Department?"
Duan Xi thought to himself, when you called to report, didn't I already hold your white and smooth little hand? But you still vowed to keep trust in your superiors.
No, the cooked duck will fly away.
Duan Xi: "It's not scary to have a mole. The scary thing is that the level of this mole should not be too high. Sister, the secret was leaked three to five minutes after you reported it. In such a short period of time, the general low-level police officers can contact Are these secrets?"
Shen Lan took a slight breath of the cool breeze from the river.
"You mean, the top brass of the security system...?"
"I just said it casually... By the way, who did you report it to at that time? Is it reliable?"
Shen Lanyi glared at him with her beautiful sideways eyes: "Shen Ruyan, executive deputy director of the Department of Public Security and leader of the military vehicle robbery task force - my aunt, do you think she is reliable?"
Duan Xi was startled, then laughed and said, "Auntie, that's no problem. It must be that the staff around her made some mistakes and didn't do things carefully."
No wonder your hotel is called Lanyan Tower. It turns out that it not only reflects your name, Shen Lan, but also uses Shen Ruyan's word "smoke". Apparently when this girl opened the store, she sold her aunt's signboard in order to raise the banner and make tiger skins.
Therefore, regardless of official organizations or people in the world, everyone gave Lan Yanlou face not only because of Shen Lan, but more importantly because of Shen Ruyan and the huge Shen family behind them.
But if there is such a hidden danger around my aunt, it would be a big deal. Shen Lan seemed to think for a moment, then returned the team and took back Duan Xi's temporarily borrowed gun.
Unexpectedly, when they returned to the meeting point on the shore, the group of police officers who stayed on the Xiahe to search had actually gained something.
Based on Duan Xi's introduction, Shen Lan arranged for her men to pay attention to two targets when searching - one was the dragons that had just escaped, and the other was the 105 tenants who were playing cards in the gambling boat.
After the sheriffs boarded the ship, the old man from 105 tenants was tackled before he could leave.
It's just that he was a guest on the Xia He, and Qin Hongxian did not "want" the Public Security Department to take him away directly from the ship.
Of course, the old man is not a prisoner. He just killed a killer out of a sense of justice in Lanyan Tower. Therefore, this is also the reason why the Department of Public Security cannot arrest people by force. This gives Qin Hongxian more confidence to confront the Department of Public Security.
Shen Lan finally felt a little more interested, and thought that her hard work at night was not in vain, so she would get on the boat to meet this aura master who never saw the dragon's beginning or end. This chapter has been completed!
