When I came out, Gao Mingqiang found me. He must have seen the report too.
"Team leader, I don't think the situation is that serious. I observed Captain Liu's head before, and she didn't have much superficial bleeding!"
"Superficial bleeding indicates only the number of ruptured blood vessels..." I sighed and continued, "The severity of intracranial hemorrhage is not about the surface, but the inside of the skull. Liu Yuning's pupils are already different in size, which proves that her intracranial injury is quite serious."
"Don't pupils only distinguish between life and death?"
I shook my head. "Doctors do use pupils to determine death, but observing pupils has other uses, like the one I just mentioned, to identify intracranial injury. Alright, Gao Mingqiang, I'm fine. You'd better go back to Fuming City. I'll be back soon. If it weren't for the wedding, we wouldn't have returned to Guangming. We can't give up because of this. We must catch the killer!"
"Team leader, I really admire you for being able to walk out like this. If my wife were murdered, I would be devastated and unable to concentrate on my work."
"What's the point of not concentrating? What we need to do is find the killer as soon as possible and bring justice to the victim!"
"Understood, team leader. When you're ready, we'll go back!"
Actually, I was forcing myself at the time. After such an incident, no one could recover immediately. However, my psychological resilience was quite good. I stared at Liu Yuning for about a night, clenching her hand tightly. I don't know why, but I leaned against her abdomen and fell asleep.
I saw her get up, stroking my hair, and bravely told me, "Go, He Sheng. You shouldn't stay here forever. You have many missions to complete. I don't want my situation to have a significant impact on your work and life. Believe me! Go out and find your own life!"
As she said this, she hugged my head tightly. I gripped her hand, and just as I was about to embrace her, I suddenly woke up. I looked around the ward, only to find her still lying on the hospital bed. It turned out it was just a dream!
A dream, though a dream, I knew it must be that Yu Ning and I had a psychological connection. She was supporting me from behind, urging me to move forward and not remain stuck in the past forever.
I stood up and kissed Yu Ning's forehead deeply. "I'm leaving, Yu Ning. I will definitely catch the killer who framed your family, and the one who killed those children! I will make them pay the price, I will. I will bring them to justice! Today, I swear by my police-issue handgun that I will thoroughly arrest all the criminals involved! Otherwise, I will not rest in this life!"
Leaving the ward, I walked out of the hospital and found my colleagues from the Sin Punishment Team standing by a police van. The only one missing was Liu Yuning.
I walked over to them. Everyone was waiting for me with solemn expressions.
"Team leader, it's time to go!" Xia Hou said.
"Yes, don't worry, I'm fine now!"
I patted everyone's shoulders and got into the co-pilot's seat. Gao Mingqiang drove, and the others sat in the back. Xiao Yuande wanted to smoke, but Xie Chuchu stopped him. The car headed towards Fuming City again. Although they committed the crime in Guangming City, we should have investigated there. However, we had already checked and saw them going to Guangming City on the surveillance footage. Besides, Liu Yuning's parents lived in Guangming City.
Back in Fuming City, Director Huang kept comforting me. I went to his office and sat opposite him. "He Sheng, don't worry. You know what kind of person Captain Liu is. She won't be defeated like this. Let her rest well during this time. I think she must be tired. After so many years of hard work, anyone would get tired!"
"I think so too." Although Director Huang's words were comforting, I couldn't help but agree with him, or it would be too rude.
"He Sheng, you know what you should do now. After all, the Sin Punishment Team has been established for more than a day. Let's start from Fuming City."
"Yes, Director Huang. If it weren't for the circumstances..."
"I understand. This time, we've already tracked the criminals' whereabouts, and we even have a frontal photo of one of them. This guy was really careless. He was photographed at the station when he returned to Fuming City. I've also identified his identity."
"Director Huang is indeed swift!"
I couldn't help but praise him. Zhuge Kangle? Such a surname is not unheard of, but this is the first time I've encountered it.
This person was originally from Gaogang City, but he came to Fuming City a few years ago and worked as a doctor for a few months. However, he suddenly disappeared, and even the hospital where he worked couldn't find him. wΑp.kanshu伍.net
We compared the surveillance footage and found him appearing at the crime scenes several times. Previously, due to the large crowds and unclear images, we couldn't identify suspects, but this time he appeared at the station, and we captured his image.
However, thanks to the help of He Xin and several technical police officers, I took a wanted poster and Zhuge Kangle's information to the criminal investigation office of the Public Security Bureau. After announcing the arrest mission, I also notified all major police stations and sub-stations to assist. When we dispatched, basically no one dared to slack off; everyone wanted to help me catch that detestable killer.
However, I didn't notice a message from "Dad" on my phone.
The reason we dispatched was that He Xin detected that Zhuge Kangle's phone signal last disappeared near Huatai East Road in Fuming City. According to the usual pattern, we would first search within this area.
Arriving at Huatai East Road, we divided into several groups and searched in the east, west, south, and north directions. Police officers from the nearby sub-stations also joined in. A total of a hundred police officers sealed off the entire Huatai East Road. Many citizens became nervous seeing so many police officers and left quickly. This time, they didn't linger nearby.
Many police cars were parked on the road. We searched the streets in full gear. When we saw rental houses, we showed Zhuge Kangle's photo and asked questions. After a period of inquiry, we found no trace of Zhuge Kangle. Xia Hou came to me and said, "He must have left this area. If he knew we found him, he would definitely discard his phone and run desperately towards a certain place!"
"Does he know we've found him?" I asked myself.
Actually, I wouldn't usually say that. This time, I was a bit disappointed. The immense psychological shadow had made my mind a little sluggish.
