In the morning, at the Longcheng General Administration Bureau compound.
Gu Baishun was lying in the lounge, taking a short nap.
“Boom boom boom!”
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the office door. Gu Baishun suddenly woke up from his sleep, opened his eyes, and found that it was Guo Zhengdao standing outside the glass door.
Gu Baishun rubbed his face, lifted the quilt on his body, and said in a voice a little hoarse from sleep: "Come in."
“Squeak!”
The glass door was pushed open, and Guo Zhengdao hurried in and reported to Gu Baishun: "Someone vomited, and the information he provided is still very critical."
Hearing this, Gu Baishun rubbed his cheeks first, then put on his coat, stood up and said, "Let's go and take a look."
"good!"
Guo Zhengdao responded and the two of them walked out immediately.
When they arrived at the corridor, Gu Baishun suddenly turned around and asked, "Have you informed the An Department about this matter?"
Guo Zhengdao shook his head: "Not yet, I just got the news and rushed over to inform you first."
"That's it." Gu Baishun waved his hand and said, "Go and notify the Security Department right away and ask them to send someone to attend the trial."
"Okay, I'll do it right away." Guo Zhengdao nodded, took out his cell phone and called the An Department.
After they had confessed everything, they waited for the other party for a while before heading towards the interrogation office area.
The entire Bureau of Investigation was brightly lit, and the office area was filled with people, all busy with the assassination case.
When Gu Baishun walked in, the interrogators in the office area stood up hurriedly and saluted Gu Baishun: "Director Gu!"
"Yeah." Gu Baishun nodded at them and asked, "Where are the people?"
"Interrogation Room No. 12, I'll take you there." An interrogator hurried over and led Gu Baishun into a separate interrogation room.
In the interrogation room, a middle-aged police officer was sitting on a chair, drinking water from a cup.
His name is Yang Ye, he is a veteran police officer of the police department and also the whistleblower this time. There is a sly look in his eyes.
Liu Hongxu and several people from the Security Department have arrived and are sitting behind the interrogation table.
The interrogator hurriedly helped Gu Baishun clean the table in front of him and pulled out a chair: "Director Gu, please sit down."
Gu Baishun sat directly in the chief judge's seat and greeted Liu Hongxu: "Director Liu, thank you for your hard work."
"You've worked hard, too." Liu Hongxu was looking at the information about Yang Ye in his hand: "Can this person's words be trusted?"
"Let's listen to what he says first." Gu Baishun crossed his legs and ordered, "Let's start."
Guo Zhengdao was sitting next to Gu Baishun, in charge of the trial. Upon hearing this, he immediately said to Yang Ye, "Officer Yang, please repeat what you just said."
"Okay, okay." Yang Ye nodded repeatedly, put down the water cup and said softly: "It was the night before Foreign Minister Bai's accident. The four of us, He Yan, Li Jun, and Chen Hongqiang, were on duty and responsible for the security of the entire seventh floor. It's embarrassing to say that we did violate the rules at that time. It was around 12 o'clock in the evening, and a few of us secretly drank some wine in the lounge. Alas, this job is really too boring, and there is nothing to do on duty at night..."
Gu Baishun frowned and waved his hand to interrupt him: "Let's talk about the main point."
"Sorry, sorry!" Yang Ye said embarrassedly, "I'm a chatterbox. I love to nag. Officers, this is what happened. The four of us drank a little bit of wine. We drank too much at that time and were a little confused. In addition, we were about to change shifts, so we were going to go back and rest. But I vaguely remember that during the drinking process, this old He...ah, that is He Yan, he went out twice. At that time, he said he was going to the toilet, and we didn't care, but later we thought about it and it was indeed a bit strange. He was out for a long time, and the toilet he went to was the one where the gangster took the gun..."
Yang Ye paused for a moment, then quickly added, "Oh, oh, there's one more thing! Before the shift that day, when we were changing in the locker room, I forgot to bring cigarettes and wanted to get a pack from his locker, but Lao He stopped me. His attitude was a bit strange at the time, and his reaction was a bit strong. I was quite surprised."
"Such an important matter, why didn't you report it to us on the day it happened?" Liu Hongxu asked.
"Hey!" Yang Ye touched his head. "I was drunk at the time. I forgot a lot of details and didn't pay much attention to them. But now that I think about it carefully, something is wrong."
When Liu Hongxu heard this, he turned around and asked Gu Baishun: "Where is He Yan now?"
"As for He Yan, this is what happened."
Gu Baishun didn't say anything. Guo Zhengdao at the side started to explain: "Because the time was too short, it has been less than a day since the incident, and a large number of police officers were involved. Many people had already gone off work and were not in the hotel or the police station. So we specifically communicated with Director Wang and asked him to send someone to assist us in our work and call these people one by one to notify them. I remember that He Yan answered the phone at that time, and expressed his willingness to cooperate and promised to report to the National Bureau of Statistics within a limited time."
Liu Hongxu was silent for a moment, then said to Guo Zhengdao, "Then you should call Director Wang right away and ask him to take people to look for He Yan immediately, but don't alarm him."
Just as he finished speaking, Gu Baishun waved his hand and stopped him: "I think this is the case. The problem itself lies with the police department. We should try to investigate secretly and not inform them, so as not to alert them."
Liu Hongxu frowned and couldn't help but say, "If we conduct a secret investigation, we have no direction. After all, we don't know the people at the police station very well, and it's not easy to do this without going through Director Wang."
Gu Baishun intervened and said, “It doesn’t matter. Let’s use our own channels to find out the truth as soon as possible.”
Liu Hongxu looked at him deeply, nodded, and said nothing more.
…
At the same time, the Tsing Yi Bureau's car quietly stopped next to a remote apartment.
Kang Dinghuang got out of the car, walked into the apartment alone, took the elevator upstairs, and came to the door of a house.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
He knocked on the door regularly, and after a while it creaked open, revealing a clean-shaven man.
The two looked at each other silently, and no one spoke.
Kang Dinghuang walked in and closed the door.
The room was very simple, with almost no furniture, only a camp bed, a folding table and a simple wardrobe. It was like a temporary dormitory.
With a creak, the bald man sat down on the bed, took out a cigarette, lit it, and looked at Kang Dinghuang.
After thinking for a while, Kang Dinghuang said to him, "I have to use you now. Pack your things and go to Bana City first."
