Chapter 5: Escape 14

  Lin Chao Hui's toilet and ward were not far away, Xiao Bin and the little policeman's conversation was almost all heard, he felt that the opportunity was rare, Chao Bo nodded slightly, glanced out of the toilet, saw the little policeman and nurse chatting without noticing, two people flashed out of the toilet, pushed open 306 ward, Bo Bi pushed open the door in an instant, drew out a gun, thumb moved to open the safety catch, on the hospital bed "Xiao Bin" was sleeping soundly with his head covered, he pulled the trigger continuously, several bullets penetrated through the quilt, at this time, the little policeman's questioning voice was heard from the corridor.

  Lin Chao Hui, who was following behind Bobby, quickly stepped forward two steps, lifted up the quilt and took a look. Underneath the quilt were just two pillows! "Damn it!" Lin Chao Hui cursed loudly. At this time, the sound of rapid footsteps came from the corridor outside, and now he couldn't care about anything else, he had to think of a way to leave here.

  Bobby was leaning against the wall, his gun pointing at the door. The young policeman had no experience and pushed open the door with a "bang", wanting to rush in. Before he could react, Bobby stretched out his foot and tripped him up, sending him tumbling into the ward, his head hitting the bedframe and seeing stars. Bobby raised his gun, aiming at him. Lin Chao Hui thought that killing another policeman wouldn't serve any purpose, so he pressed down on the barrel of the gun: "Get out."

  The little policeman was dazed from the fall, and when he turned around to get up, he saw that the hospital bed was empty. Suddenly, his head started sweating - where had Xiao Bin gone? Who was that person just now? He thought it was Xiao Bin who had attacked him, but if Xiao Bin had run away, he would be in trouble. Ignoring his dizziness, he quickly scrambled to his feet and pulled out a police baton from his waist: "Halt... halt..."

  The nurse heard the commotion in the corridor, and when she came out to look, she saw the two "doctors" running towards her. Before she could even open her mouth, one of the "doctors" pushed her away, and the nurse fell to the ground with a thud. The two "doctors" rushed down the stairs, and before the nurse could get up, a small policeman ran past her with a baton in hand, and all that was heard was the sound of rapid footsteps "thumping" from the stairs...

  The little policeman ran downstairs and saw that the hospital's courtyard was empty, without a single person. He ran to the security room and knocked on the glass door, asking: "Did you see anyone running past?"

  "What person? Which person?" The security guard looked drowsy, while the little policeman's butt went soft and he fell to the ground: "I'm done for, I'm done for... this time I'm definitely dead..."

  Lin Chaohui and Bobby left the hospital smoothly, hastily took off their white coats on the street and threw them into the trash can. Bobby asked calmly, "What's next?"

  "Damn it, this cop is really a big trouble!" Lin Chaohui answered irrelevantly. At this time, he felt a faint sense of unease in his heart. Xiao Bin's figure was swaying in front of him, as if mocking him. He was sure that this troublesome cop would definitely give himself even more trouble in the future!

  "Killing one policeman is death, killing two is also the same." Bobby's words seemed to mock Lin Chaohui's previous decision-making mistake.

  "Shut up!" Lin Chaohui shouted in a low voice.

  Bobby shrugged his shoulders. He was just a mercenary, following the boss's orders for money. Maybe he had indeed talked too much.

  The mercenary named Lin led Wang Licheng and the others to detour through small roads and checkpoints, and slipped onto the waterway. A prepared boat picked them up halfway and they left the border by water.

  Liu Zi's hanging heart finally let go, with a feeling of being reborn. Wang Licheng leaned against the railing, smoking, and Liu Zi limped over to ask for a cigarette, starting a conversation: "Brother Cheng, what do you think Zhu Jie is really up to?"

  "How do I know? Let's take it one step at a time." Wang Licheng was somewhat depressed, now neither Zhu Meier nor Lin Chaohui seemed to be in a good mood towards him, and he couldn't think of a better solution for the moment.

  "Cheng Ge, I didn't expect you to be so brave. You've never used a gun before, have you?" Liu Zi also noticed Wang Licheng's gloom and changed the subject.

  "Hey... just messing around." Wang Licheng pretended to be humble and said: "I've played a few rounds before, but it's still my first time killing someone."

  "Ah? Brother Cheng, you really opened fire and shot someone?" Liu Zi said in feigned surprise.

  "That guy was at death's door, saying that he and I were old acquaintances. Could I let him keep rambling on? So I just... took care of him!" Wang Licheng boasted about his own bravery.

  "Boss Wang, following you is really the right choice, you're both literary and martial." Liu Zi flattered. Boss Wang was very pleased with Liu Zi's flattery, took a deep drag on his cigarette and said: "Liu Zi, let's work hard together now that Zhu Jie has handed over this channel to me, as long as we connect well, are you still worried about not making money?"

  "That's it, that's... Ah yes, Brother Cheng, how did the cops find us?" Liu Zi was also a seasoned traveler on the jianghu, and he was only half-believing in this illusory promise. Of course, he couldn't say anything to break the spell now; what he was more concerned about was how to evade the police's pursuit.

  "Huh? This is a problem, how did Zhang find us?" Wang Licheng suddenly woke up with a look of realization, looking at Liu Zi with suspicious eyes.

  "What do you mean, Brother Cheng?" Liu Zi was anxious, and Wang Licheng's gaze clearly indicated that he suspected himself of being a traitor.

  "What's the big deal, why are you so tense?" Wang Licheng replied perfunctorily, but his inner doubts were spreading like a virus - Liu Zi had been to the border before, and the cops had come knocking on his door, he said he had escaped, but who saw it?

  Liu Zi originally wanted to win him over emotionally, but unexpectedly aroused Wang Licheng's suspicion, and stood there awkwardly looking at the river, neither of them speaking.

  ……

  At this time, Lin Chao Hui and Bobby were hastily fleeing the hospital. They returned to their small inn, where Bobby reminded him: "The cops will be here soon to search for us, let's hurry up and leave."

  Lin Chaohui knew the efficiency of mainland police, and estimated that within half an hour, the nearby police station would come to investigate outsiders in the hotel. The two simply packed up, checked out of the room, got into an unassuming sedan, and left the hotel.

  It wasn't until the policeman who bought midnight snacks came back that he found out Xiao Bin had run away. The young policeman had never seen such a situation before, and after explaining for half a day, he still couldn't make it clear. He was anxious and immediately reported to his superiors.

  Qin Minghui had just slept for a few hours when he was reluctantly woken up by Little Li: "Director, Wang Xiaobin has escaped."

  "Ran away?!" Qin Minghui's eyes widened in surprise: "What ran away?!"

  "It's unclear what exactly happened, but according to the police officers at the police station, he sent one officer to buy midnight snacks and another to fetch water, and took advantage of the brief moment to escape."

  Qin Minghui was somewhat unresponsive. Why did Xiao Bin want to run? Was it because he was afraid of the organization's investigation? But this is also unlikely!

  Just as Qin Minghui was considering deploying personnel to find Xiao Bin, a call came in. It was the security guard at the county bureau's entrance: "Director Qin, there is someone claiming to be Wang Xiaobin who says he wants to see you."

  Qin Minghui, who had just woken up, was a bit dizzy and wondered what Wang Xiaobin wanted to do. He escaped from the hospital just to run to the Public Security Bureau? Hurriedly said: "Let him in." After thinking for a moment, he added another sentence with some concern: "Add two people to watch him, don't let him run again." After hanging up the phone, he rushed downstairs.

  Xiao Bin slipped out of the hospital, hailed a taxi on the street and headed straight to the County Public Security Bureau. He knew that command centers were usually set up there, and with such a big incident happening, Director Gui Ning would definitely be in charge personally.

  Bao Wei opened the gate and let the taxi in. As soon as the car stopped steadily under the county building, Qin Minghui ran down from the stairs.

  "Bureau Chief......" Xiaobin saw Qin Minghui and his tears almost flowed out.

  "Wang Xiaobin, what are you flying about!" Qin Minghui didn't have Xiaobin's excitement, what was this little rabbit going to stir up now?

  "I... I said I'd go pick him up." Xiaobin said in a low voice, wiping away tears with his hand.

  A seven-foot-tall man has tears but doesn't easily shed them. Qin Minghui swallowed back the second half of his scolding words and comforted him, saying: "Alright, alright, as long as you're not ashamed, it's fine, it's fine. The search and rescue team has already gone in to find Old Wei, and we'll have results tomorrow. Since you've come, just bear with me for a bit and finish the written record..."

  Qin Minghui took Xiao Bin and was about to leave when the taxi driver hastily shouted: "Hey...the fare..."

  Qin Minghui shook his head helplessly and pointed to Xiao Bin, "This kid is really something, he didn't have a single penny on him but still dared to take a taxi!" He paid the fare for Xiao Bin, and as they were going upstairs, Xiao Li rushed down to find him: "Director... Director, just now the police officer from the police station said that at the time there were two people claiming to be doctors in the hospital. When the police chased them out, they couldn't be found, but when they returned to the ward, they saw several bullet holes on the bed!"

  Doctor? Gunshot wound? The situation is getting more and more complicated, could it be that Little Li was right after all? The other party didn't leave but instead hid somewhere, but Qin Minghui never thought they were actually in Ningming!

  At that time, Xiaobin, who was one of the parties in the hospital, looked at Qin Minghui and said: "What doctor? I didn't see any doctors..."

  "Hurry, seal off the traffic routes around Ningming and deploy more personnel to inspect each hotel, especially small inns..." Qin Minghui ordered: "Little Li, arrange for someone to take a statement from Xiao Bin."

  Bobby's fighting instincts didn't let him make a wrong judgment, and the police acted quickly. As he drove out of town, he found that the police had already set up a checkpoint at the intersection, but he calmly turned into a side road, stopped the car, and asked Lin Chaohui: "What do we do now?"

  "How far is it from here to the boarding point?" Lin Chaohui asked.

  "Not far, but not close either..." Bobbie said: "But at this time, the dock and highway are probably blocked, we need to find another way."

  "Is the boat ready?" Lin Zhaohui asked again.

  "I think I should be ready."

  "We must leave the city tonight..." Lin Chao Hui said, once the police have finished setting up their blockade, it will be difficult to leave.

  Bobby restarted the car, pretending to casually turn back into the city from the fork in the road, away from the police checkpoints. However, before long, Bobby saw that police had been deployed at major intersections throughout Ningming County, with some officers inspecting hotels.

  If it were an ordinary person, they would have been intimidated by this lineup, but Lin Chao Hui and Bobbi remained calm. At a crossroads while waiting for the traffic light, a police officer came up and knocked on the car window. Bobbi calmly rolled down the window, and the police officer took a look inside the car, seeing only two people, seemingly nothing suspicious, and casually asked: "Where are you going?"

  "Let's go out for a midnight snack now and head back home." Boby replied, his voice didn't show any sign of trembling.

  "Oh? Where do you live?" The police officer asked casually again.

  This seemingly simple topic actually has a lot of mystery to it. If someone has a guilty conscience, they will definitely stutter and stumble over their words. But Bobby seemed to be very experienced with this kind of interrogation and quickly picked up where the other person left off: "Rose Garden Community, 18 Fenghuang Street."

  "Local?" the policeman asked again.

  "Born and raised." Bobbie said, the police looked at the car again with some unease, but couldn't find anything suspicious, so they waved their hands to let them go.

  Lin Chaohui felt that his decision in the afternoon was so correct. If he had stayed with Lin Zi, they might have been stopped by the police.

  But Lin Chaohui's relief was short-lived, as soon as the car started moving, the policeman suddenly shouted again: "Stop!"

  Bobby glanced at the rearview mirror and that policeman followed again. He rolled down the window and asked: "What's wrong?"

  "Please show me your ID cards."

  "Wait a minute..." Bobby calmly reached into his pocket, but what he pulled out wasn't his ID card, it was the handgun with a silencer. Bobby glanced in the rearview mirror, the police at the intersection were checking other vehicles, no one noticed him. He fired two shots through the car door, and the policeman didn't even have time to react before falling face up on the ground.

  When the police at the intersection finished checking the remaining vehicles, they found that policeman lying on the ground. When they ran over, he had stopped breathing, and the intersection was empty...

  This is not an ordinary drug dealer! They have good psychological quality, strong anti-detection ability and emergency response ability! After Qin Minghui received the news that a police officer who was checking suddenly died, his first reaction in his heart was like this. Qin Minghui hadn't met such an opponent for a long time!

  They must be trying to leave Ningming, at least this can prove that they are still in Ningming. Qin Minghui ordered more personnel to be dispatched to block the roads leading to Ningming. After thinking for a moment, he also contacted the Special Police Unit: "Liu Dajin, where is the special police closest to Ningming?"

  "Chengte Li's Third Squad." Liu Dajin was somewhat perplexed, wondering why the director suddenly asked about this. At that time, the third squad was on duty in Jinju Town, which is only a few dozen kilometers away from Ningming County.

  "Bring over the third battalion, I'll command it personally!" Qin Minghui said.
