Chapter Twenty: Capture

  "Was it you who brought back the unconscious Fan Se at that time?" Wu Hui wanted to know how Fan Se had ended up in Liu Chong's hands back then.

  "Hmph, of course it's me. Back then, my sister died because of him, but he didn't even show up at the funeral." At the thought of not seeing Fan Ze at the funeral, Liu Chong's eyes were filled with hatred. "After burying my sister, I went to look for him, but that little scoundrel was like a turtle hiding in its shell and disappeared. Later, I heard he had a fiancée named Lin Min, so I thought, he must go find Lin Min. So I decided to follow Lin Min, and unexpectedly, it really paid off."

  That year, Liu Chong had been secretly following Lin Min. Sure enough, he saw Fan Sai going to find Lin Min. He followed behind the two of them, originally planning to find an opportunity to kill both people. Just as he decided to take action, he saw a change in Lin Min's eyes, that kind of gaze was all too familiar to Liu Chong, from how many times he had also shown that kind of gaze in his dreams.

  As expected, Lin Min picked up a stone from the ground and smashed it heavily towards Fan Ze's head. Fan Ze fell to the ground with blood flowing, and when Lin Min saw the blood on Fan Ze's head, he was scared and ran away.

  When Lin Min ran far away, he walked to Fan Ze's side, probed his nostrils with his hand, found that he was still breathing, and then helped him up and temporarily locked him in the dormitory assigned by the school.

  Later, Fan Ze woke up. Liu Chong was worried that he would make a sound and be known to the school, so he fainted again. After dark, he found a car and stuffed Fan Ze into the trunk, pulling him to his parents' old house.

  It was here, in this very place, fifteen years ago, that he had extracted one of his ribs while Vanse was still alive, killed him, dismembered him, and since there was no place to dispose of the body parts, he remembered the high-concentration hydrofluoric acid in the school laboratory that could dissolve a corpse.

  He then stole some back to the school laboratory in batches, slowly dissolving the corpse, and finally threw the remaining residue into the moat of Lincheng City, thus thoroughly disposing of Fan Ze's body.

  Wu Hui saw that Guo Yining had already climbed in through the window and was slowly getting closer to Liu Chong, trying to stall for some more time, "Fifteen years have passed since you last killed someone, is it because of something?"

  Liu Chong didn't think he had done anything wrong, he thought everything he did was for their own good. "I'm not trying to kill them, they just don't understand how to protect themselves, with such a good education and prospects, why would they want to ruin themselves? I'm trying to save them, it's not about killing them at all, I even held a funeral for them, hoping they can start anew."

  Guo Yining maintained a continued posture, hoping that Wu Hui would guide Liu Chong to continue speaking and divert his attention. "What about your wife? Why do you treat her like this?"

  When Wu Hui mentioned Wang He, Liu Chong looked at the motionless person in his arms. He was really in agony. "Her? I loved her so much, but she fell in love with someone else and wanted to leave me. It's absolutely impossible. She is mine, and I will never let her leave me. In this life, she has to be with me."

  Just as Liu Chong was staring at Wang He in a daze, Guo Yining seized the opportunity and made a flying tackle, knocking Liu Chong to the ground and quickly pinning him down.

  Kuo Yining's sudden attack left Liu Chong somewhat bewildered, but soon he realized what was going on. Wu Hui had spoken to him just to divert his attention. This man had ruined his plan and deserved to die.

  Just as Guo Yining subdued Liu Chong and freed one hand to grab the handcuffs, Liu Chong suddenly went berserk, exerting an extraordinary strength, breaking free from Guo Yining's restraints, and pounced on Wu Hui.

  The knife in his hand was aimed directly at Wu Hui's heart, and Wu Hui could only watch as Liu rushed towards him. The only thing he could do was to retreat backwards, but the threshold behind him was too high, and Wu Hui accidentally tripped and fell to the ground.

  "Wu Hui." Zhang Qiang was standing right next to Wu Hui, and when he came to his senses, Liu Chong had already rushed to Wu Hui's side. He could only stretch out his hand to grab the back of Liu Chong's clothes, but Liu Chong's strength was too great, and he broke free from Zhang Qiang.

  Just when everyone thought Wu Hui was doomed, Liu Chong suddenly collapsed softly on Wu Hui's body, what is going on?

  Guo Yining and Zhang Qiang quickly walked over, grabbed Liu Chong, and threw him to one side. They found a needle tube inserted in his neck.

  "Are you okay?" A woman's voice came from behind the two of them. Turning around, it was surprisingly forensic doctor Wang Siting. How did she get here?

  "It's nothing, just a flesh wound." Liu Chong's knife had still injured Wu Hui, his left arm was cut by the knife. "What are you doing here?"

  Wang Si Ting quickly treated Wu Hui's wound, "I followed the tire tracks of your car and knew you might have found the murderer, so I came to the scene. Fortunately, my marksmanship was accurate enough."

  Wang Siting originally used an anesthetic gun. If she hadn't appeared in time, Wu Hui's life would have been lost here.

  Guo Yining quickly subdued Liu Chong, he didn't want to make the same mistake again, so he let Fang You take Liu Chong away.

  "How's the wound? It bled so much, should be okay, right?" Zhang Qiang saw Wu Hui's arm constantly bleeding and was worried that an important part had been injured.

  "Don't worry, he won't die. You watch him, I'll go take a look at that woman." After Wang Si Ting finished bandaging Wu Hui, she walked over to Wang He's side and took a look.

  Guo Yining saw Wang Siting's face didn't look good, "What's wrong?"

  Wang Si Ting gave Wang He a simple examination, "All of his ribs are broken, it should be from multiple CPR compressions."

  Guo Yining didn't understand what this meant, "cardiopulmonary resuscitation?"

  Wu Hui came to Wang He's side with Zhang Qiang's support, "Suffocation, look at the hemp rope next to Wang He. When I came in, it was tied around Wang He's neck. Look at the abrasion on her neck, it should have been caused multiple times. After suffocating and fainting, she was resuscitated again, then made to faint again, and finally revived through CPR."

  Wang He had a special regard for Liu Chong, which was why he repeatedly saved her.

  When Yang Rong heard that Wu Hui was injured, she immediately put down what she was doing and rushed to the hospital. When she ran to the hospital, she happened to see Wu Hui lying on the bed, Zhang Qiang sitting on the edge of the bed peeling an apple, this scene is really full of CP feeling.

  Zhang Qiang saw that it was Yang Rong who had arrived, and hastily stood up, hurrying over to her with a smile, "How did you come?"

  Yang Rong rushed to Zhang Qiang with a smile, walked directly past him to Wu Hui's bedside, "Brother Wu, what happened? How did you get hurt? Is it serious? What does the doctor say?"

  Wu Hui saw Yang Rong's pitiful expression and couldn't help but laugh, "It's just a superficial wound, they're making a big deal out of it, no need for me to stay in the hospital for observation."

  Zhang Qiang saw Yang Rong staring at Wu Hui, so he quickly walked over and squeezed in between the two of them. He handed her the apple in his hand and said, "I knew you were coming, look, I've already peeled the apples for you. Eat quickly, they're very sweet."

  Looking at Zhang Qiang's big face in front of her, Yang Rong asked with a cute expression, "Is it really very sweet?"

  Seeing Yang Rong finally speaking to him, Zhang Qiang's head nodded excitedly, just like a little chicken pecking at rice, "Really, it's very sweet, you eat quickly."

  Yang Rong took the apple from Zhang Qiang's hand, then slowly pushed Zhang Qiang away from between them with her outstretched hand. "Brother Wu, the apple is very sweet, you're injured, eat more."

  Zhang Qiang was ruthlessly pushed away by Yang Rong, pouting and feeling very wronged.

  "What's wrong with you, Zhang Qiang? Who bullied you?" Guo Yining asked as soon as she entered the door and saw Zhang Qiang looking wronged.

  Guo Yining, Fang You and Wang Hua all came to the hospital, this small ward is going to be lively.

  Zhang Qiang had just suffered a grievance and, seeing Guo Yining and the others, vented his anger on them: "Are you police very idle? Don't need to go catch the murderer, why run here?"

  Guo Yining knew Zhang Qiang was unhappy and didn't hold it against him, "Looks like you've suffered a great injustice!"

  Wu Hui sat up and asked Zhang Qiang to bring over his coat and put it on him. "Is the case closed?"

  "Yes, Liu Chong has told us everything, so you don't have to worry about it anymore. I heard that we can be discharged tomorrow and we'll come pick you up. We'll go to your place and have a lively time?" Guo Yining glanced at Zhang Qiang, although the question was directed at Wu Hui, but after all, Zhang Qiang lived with Wu Hui.

  Zhang Qiang was about to object when he saw Yang Rong staring at him with a straight gaze. Soon, Zhang Qiang surrendered.

  The next day, Guo Yining drove to pick up Wu Hui and took him home. Fang You then went to the supermarket to buy ingredients for hot pot, which is perfect for winter.

  What Wu Hui did not expect was that Wang Si Ting also came to the Wu family home, except for seeing Wang Si Ting at Liu Chong's house last time, he had not seen her again and wanted to say thank you.

  Wu Hui's hands were inconvenient, so he couldn't make coffee. He poured a cup of hot water for Wang Si Ting and said, "About what happened last time, I really want to thank you."

  Wang Si Ting held the teacup to warm her hands, the weather outside was really too cold, I guess it will snow in a few days. "I know you want to thank me, that's why I'm here, and soon I won't be polite."

  Wu Hui followed Wang Si Ting's gaze to the living room, where those people were busy with the hot pot and didn't care about them at all. "But I really didn't expect you to come back."

  Wang Si Ting brought her gaze back, looking at Wu Hui with a hint of a smile, "What's wrong, not welcome?"

  Wu Hui hastily waved his hand in denial, "Of course not, welcome anytime."

  Wang Si Ting saw Wu Hui's awkward expression and smiled, "Just kidding, why so serious."

  For some reason, every time Wu Hui saw Wang Si Ting smile, he would think of Jing Ran, and almost took Wang Si Ting as Jing Ran.

  Seeing Wu Hui's expression on his face, Wang Si Ting thought Wu Hui was angry and hastily said: "Are you angry?"

  "Ah?" Wang Siting said, and Wu Hui only then realized how foolish he was. How could he have imagined the two of them as one person? "No, I just thought of someone."

  Wang Si Ting nodded, although she didn't know who Wu Hui was thinking of, but from his eyes, it could be seen that the person was extremely important to him.
