Chapter 3 Someone Has Tampered with My Gun

Feng Ziqi's gaze remained fixed on Xiao Gang, yet he said, "I will not leave"

At this moment, he is more concerned about Zhang Yan. Regardless of whether he has been betrayed by Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan's situation will not be good. If he wants to clear his name, Zhang Yan is an important witness.

The door was pushed open again, and the person who entered was Fan Cheng, the captain of the police inspection team

Ling Li looked at Feng Ziqi and asked, "Where is Xiao Gang?"

Although he is the captain and Xiao Gang is the vice-captain, in his heart, he regards Xiao Gang as his senior and a mentor whom he respects greatly

After hanging up the phone, Ling Li picked up the intercom: "Everyone pay attention, check your weapons. Xiao Gang has a gun, so everyone be cautious. If he resists, you may use your firearms."

Xiao Gang's face bore an expression of pain; how could he not know that by leaving, he would solidify the charge of murder against himself? Yet, what choice did he have? He could not possibly clarify what had happened last night. Deep down, he was well aware that he had been set up. Since the other party dared to act against him, they must have had a foolproof plan in place.

Aunt Peng was busy in the kitchen, while Feng Ziqi and Xiao Gang stood on the balcony

Feng Ziqi stood in the living room, gazing at Xiao Gang. He did not speak, but felt as if something was lodged uncomfortably in his throat

Ling Li signaled to his subordinates to put away their guns, glancing at Aunt Peng and then at Feng Ziqi, eager to discern any signs of deceit on their faces. However, he ultimately could not determine anything: "I apologize, Auntie, for alarming you. We are just doing our duty, and I am sorry."

Hu Xiao squinted his eyes and tightly pressed his lips together. After a while, he waved his hand and said, "Go on with your business."

Ling Li's gaze was fixed ahead: "He has been in contact with Xiao Gang for seven or eight years, and no one in the entire bureau understands Xiao Gang better than he does; only he is able to converse with Xiao Gang."

Feng Ziqi took the cigarette and said, "I have indeed thought about this." After lighting the cigarette, Feng Ziqi tilted his head and asked, "What exactly is going on?"

Feng Ziqi was just about to speak when Ling Li pushed him aside and led the group into the room. They searched carefully inside, and although there were only two rooms, they conducted a thorough search.

Xing Weidong, while driving, turned his head to look at Ling Li in the passenger seat and asked, "Team Leader Ling, is Feng Ziqi really going to meet Xiao Gang?"

Xiao Gang pulled away from Feng Ziqi's grasp and said, "I must go"

Are you at home? I want to stay at your place for a few days. Hmm, okay, I will head over right now. After finishing the call, Xiao Gang casually deleted the number and then handed the phone to the girl

The young police officer turned and left his office, casually closing the door behind him

Feng Ziqi wore a calm expression: "How could Xiao Gang be here? I came to see my aunt."

Aunt Peng is a clever person; since Feng Ziqi has said this, how could she possibly inform Ling Lixiao that he just came over

Hu Xiao said lightly: "Captain Fan, we will actively cooperate if there is a need for our assistance. I, Hu Xiao, am not a person without principles. Previously, Ling Li called to find Feng Ziqi, and I have already told him the truth. I estimate that he should have already found out Feng Ziqi's whereabouts by now"

I thought you would bring someone with you. " Xiao Gang handed him a cigarette

The sunlight in July should be warm, yet Xiao Gang's heart is filled with extreme coldness

Knock knock

Today, Xiao Gang's behavior towards her at www.hetushu.com.com felt very strange, and Feng Ziqi also seemed off. When she asked the two of them if they had something on their minds, they both said it was nothing, but at that moment, she noticed unease on Feng Ziqi's face

Fan Cheng furrowed his brows, expressing his dissatisfaction with Hu Xiao's attitude: "Old Hu, you are well aware of this shooting case and how heinous its nature is. I tell you, the bureau leadership has just convened a meeting and decided to establish the 707 Special Investigation Team. I am also a member of this team, and our inspection team will closely monitor this case. Old Hu, in the face of such significant issues, I hope you do not get confused."

"Excuse me, uncle, could you please tell me how to get to Minzu Road?" A girl, around sixteen or seventeen years old, stopped Xiao Gang in his tracks, a smile on her face.

Ling Li did not say anything further; how could he not feel the same way?

I am Ling Li, Lao Fan, that's right, I found out that Feng Ziqi is currently in the old residential area of the Hexi Jianjiang Fertilizer Plant, and I am on my way there now, um, okay, I will call you promptly if there are any developments

"Miss, may I borrow your phone for a moment? I lost mine," Xiao Gang called out to the girl

Feng Ziqi believed that Xiao Gang would not lie to him, and he sighed softly as he asked, "What do you plan to do?"

Aunt Peng did not speak, putting down her bowl and chopsticks. She had a sense of foreboding in her heart, certain that something must have happened.

Putting down the phone, Hu Xiao sighed; his heart, like Feng Ziqi's, could not believe that Xiao Gang would do such a thing

The girl did not hesitate and handed her phone to Xiao Gang, who dialed a number. The phone rang twice before the other party answered the call

Xiao Gang smiled faintly and said, "You won't be able to."

And - picture - book "What wind has blown you here?" Hu Xiao asked with a smile

Fan Cheng said: "I ask you, where has Xiao Gang's former partner Feng Ziqi gone?"

Aunt Peng inquired, "Who are you, and what exactly do you want to do?"

Therefore, I cannot go back; I need to clarify the situation. Xiao Gang flicked the cigarette butt away and checked his watch: "They will probably find this place soon, I have to leave. I will contact you again."

Aunt Peng seems to have found some comfort, as if both of them left, her meal would be wasted: "Alright, you sit here and watch some TV, it will be ready soon."

Having said that, Xiao Gang turned and walked towards the kitchen: "Auntie, I have something urgent to attend to, so I will leave first. I will come to see you another day"

"No, I really have something to attend to," Xiao Gang said as he walked to the door, looking at Aunt Peng with a smile on his face, though his eyes were subtly glistening with moisture

Feng Ziqi opened the door and saw that Ling Li was at the entrance with more than ten criminal police officers, all of whom were holding guns.

The sound of knocking echoed. Aunt Peng and Feng Ziqi, who were having their meal, exchanged a glance. Feng Ziqi stood up and said, "I will go."

It has become unclear; if I am not mistaken, there are only my fingerprints on the gun, and there may also be evidence at the scene that is detrimental to me

"Come back with me and clarify the matter," said Feng Ziqi

Therefore, he must find Zhang Yan, hoping that Zhang Yan is still alive

"What if I must keep you?" Feng Ziqi's voice suddenly turned a few degrees colder

Aunt Peng felt a bit scared; she had never seen such a situation before. Feng Ziqi walked to her side and supported her.

The sound of the police siren approached from behind, growing louder. Xiao Gang did not turn around, nor did he quicken his pace; on the contrary, his steps slowed down, resembling those of a person taking a leisurely stroll

Xiao Gang patiently gave her directions, and the girl said thank you before preparing to leave

He felt that he had fallen into a trap, yet he did not even know who the other party was

Aunt Peng pursed her lips and said, "If there is nothing else, then please go ahead, we still need to eat."

Hu Xiao hesitated for a moment, but still picked up the phone on the table: "Ling Li, Feng Ziqi has gone out, I don't know where he went, um, it was about fifteen minutes ago."

"Did you not kill the person?" Feng Ziqi asked the question that concerned him the most. Xiao Gang shook his head again, stating that he certainly did not kill the person, but that bullet must have been fired from his own gun. He said, "Someone tampered with my gun"

Fan Cheng sat down on the sofa with a serious expression: "Evil trend!"

Two police officers were sitting in the back row, and neither of them spoke

He briefly recounted the incident of being attacked in Spicy Alley last night. After listening, Feng Ziqi asked him who the person he was supposed to meet last night was. He replied, "That is one of my informants, named Zhang Yan. I am worried that he might be in danger. He had arranged to meet me at the 'Jingzi' bar last night, but he did not show up, so I went directly to his residence, and then..." He replied, "That is one of my informants, named Zhang Yan. I am worried that he might be in danger. He had arranged to meet me at the 'Jingzi' bar last night, but he did not show up, so I went directly to his residence, and then..."

Feng Ziqi must have gone to meet Xiao Gang, and he felt somewhat uneasy about making this call to Ling Li, as if he were betraying his comrade.

Old Fan, why did you come here early in the morning to show me a long face? I, Hu Xiao, have not offended you, have I

"Captain Hu, Feng Ziqi is not in the office; the security guard said he left by car a quarter of an hour ago"

Feng Ziqi nodded and said, "I heard that the surveillance captured your silhouette, and the murderer was dressed similarly to you"

To be honest, after so many years as a police officer, this is the first time I have arrested one of my own. I always feel a bit strange about it.

Ling Li then approached, first addressing Aunt Peng: "Aunt, I apologize, we are from the municipal criminal police team." He presented his credentials, but Aunt Peng did not reach out to take them; she merely turned her head to look at Feng Ziqi, who nodded in affirmation, confirming that Ling Li was not lying.

The sun has risen

Ling Li's phone rang

"Xiao Feng, are you not leaving?" Aunt Peng asked

Xiao Gang looked at his former partner and asked, "What do you want me to do?"

Feng Ziqi firmly grasped Xiao Gang's arm and said, "You cannot leave; if you do, it will only become more unclear."

Aunt Peng lived to the age of eighty, and at this moment, she also began to understand: "What happened to Gangzi? Why are you looking for him and making such a fuss? Gangzi is also a police officer!"

The police car sped past and did not stop beside him. Watching the police car disappear in the distance, he felt a tinge of bitterness in his heart. He was clearly a police officer, yet overnight he had become a murderer, with former comrades now hunting him down across the world

Hu Xiao glanced at him and said, "He went out, what happened? Xiao Gang is Xiao Gang, Feng Ziqi is Feng Ziqi. As you mentioned, they were merely former partners. I don't think Xiao Gang will bear any responsibility for the incident; if anyone is to be held accountable, it should be me, the team leader."

Xiao Gang forced a smile; he shook his head. If he had known what was going on, he would not be in this situation now

Aunt Peng set down the spatula in her hand and said, "Gangzi, eat before you leave. Auntie is almost done preparing the dishes."

Hu Xiao felt somewhat displeased, estimating that Fan Cheng had also come regarding the matter of Xiao Gang

He has changed into a new set of clothes and is no longer wearing his sunglasses; at this moment, he looks just like an ordinary passerby.
