Chapter 1643 This is the real way to wait and see!
Li Xiangnan lay dormant, quietly staring at the figure in the darkness, looking for an opportunity to strike. He hinted to himself that he must find the right moment to strike successfully.
Hiding under the broken wall, he was also quietly observing his surroundings.
Half of the water tower collapsed, and the steel bars pierced the night sky fiercely.
He slowly squatted down and ran his fingers over the edge of the broken cement.
When I arrived at the scene for the second time, many details that I didn’t notice last night quickly came to my mind.
He had made a guess last night, but when he saw it today, he found that the shock wave traces produced by the explosion were very strange and did not seem to be caused by ordinary explosives.
"I knew you would come." A voice came from the shadows.
Li Xiangnan turned his head and looked towards the place where the light movement came from.
Guo Qian, the criminal police captain of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, was squatting under the collapsed central hall of the Mu family's old house, looking at him from the dark, completely charred wooden ruins with a knowing smile on his face. "I knew you couldn't sit still!"
Li Xiangnan raised his lip and looked forward. "You police officers don't sleep? You're night owls too! Did the people ahead notice?"
The two old partners smiled at each other.
Guo Qian handed over a cigarette and Li Xiangnan took it.
"I just crouched down here, and here he is! Judging by his skills, he's an expert, and a young man at that! Only twelve minutes have passed, and you're here too!"
Li Xiangnan nodded. "What do you think he is looking for?"
Guo Qian shook his head. "I don't know. Let's find out after we catch him!"
Li Xiangnan stretched his head and took a look ahead, then he understood why Guo Qian was not in a hurry.
The enemy was coming from the direction of Pudu Temple!
In other words, the two of them don't have to move, the other party will fall into the trap and break into the encirclement of the two people.
If they sneak over quietly, they will disturb the other party because they are not familiar with the terrain and alert the enemy!
This is the real practice of waiting for the rabbit to come to you!
Li Xiangnan smiled.
Look at the other party's speed. They search very carefully. It takes about seven or eight minutes to get here.
"Old ginger is still wiser!" Li Xiangnan smiled secretly.
"What do you think of the explosion?" Guo Qian lit a cigarette himself, the red light flickering in the darkness. He didn't care much about Li Xiangnan's pursuit, but instead asked about his discovery tonight.
"This isn't a simple water tower explosion!" Li Xiangnan pulled a flashlight from his trouser pocket and placed it on the ground. "The explosion occurred at the base of the water tower, but the destructive force was directed upwards, indicating the explosive was placed close to the ground."
Guo Qian nodded. "We thought so too. The strange thing is, the explosion wasn't very powerful. It was more like..."
"Make a feint to the east and attack in the west." The two said in unison.
The night wind swept through the ruins, stirring up ashes and paper scraps.
Li Xiangnan's foot swept across the ground and suddenly stopped under a charred wooden beam. "Captain Guo, touch this."
Guo Qian was stunned, and quietly moved his steps, moving sideways from the ruins. While watching the movement in front, he approached Li Xiangnan, and then reached out to touch Li Xiangnan's feet.
"This is……"
Several messy wires emerged from the rubble, with fresh breaks.
Guo Qian squatted down and examined it carefully: "Detonator fuse. Professional."
"It's more than just professional." Li Xiangnan carefully used a flashlight to push aside the broken bricks. "The wiring method is very old-fashioned, like it was done ten years ago."
Suddenly, a slight noise came from deep in the ruins.
clap clap clap!
Ah!
The two men fell silent at the same time, then immediately looked up and forward. Guo Qian subconsciously reached for the pistol at his waist.
An unexpected scene happened!
The situation where there was only one man in black groping in the dark ruins suddenly turned into a fight between two people!
Yes, in the Mu family’s old house under the cover of night, two men in black, one tall and one short, suddenly appeared and started fighting with each other.
Punches hit flesh, making a crackling sound, and one could actually hear the sound of fists and feet hitting the body!
what's the situation?
Could it be that, like the quarrel last night, there were two groups of people disagreeing with each other?
Did they all come here looking for something and then met each other?
Out of fear of the other party's background and true intentions, they then started fighting?
Or is it another situation?
One of these two people is the murderer?
Did he meet the Mu family members who came here?
He had achieved his purpose in setting off the bombing, so when he met the other party, he attacked without hesitation, trying to kill the enemy?
Li Xiangnan and Guo Qian suddenly felt relieved.
Fortunately, the two of them did not rush out when they found the first person!
Otherwise, these two people would never have happened to meet!
Grasp!
If you don’t seize the opportunity now, you will miss it!
These are two people!
Whoosh!
Without any hesitation, Li Xiangnan pounced out like a cheetah. He grabbed the flashlight on the ground and drew a dazzling arc of light in the darkness.
"Stop it!" Guo Qian's voice echoed among the ruins.
Bang!
Chi!
The two people fighting in front suddenly slapped each other, turned their heads to look in the direction of Li Xiangnan and Guo Qian, then looked at each other, and whooshed away in opposite directions.
"Want to run?" Li Xiangnan took a look at the situation and shouted, "Captain Guo, one for each of us! I'm going after this one!"
One of the dark shadows rushed out from behind the broken wall and fled deep into the ruins, which was the direction of Pudu Temple.
The other one fled towards the Meridian Gate of the Forbidden City, throwing all the black wood and bricks at Guo Qian wherever he passed.
"Captain Guo, be careful!"
Li Xiangnan shouted and chased after him closely. His many years of medical experience made his hands surprisingly steady, and the light always firmly covered the running figure.
The chase went through most of the ruins. The man was very familiar with the terrain and always managed to suddenly turn when he was about to be caught.
Li Xiangnan seized an opportunity and pounced on him, and the two of them fell into a pile of soft reed mats.
"Want to run?"
"who are you?"
"Did you do the bombing?"
Li Xiangnan used words to force the other party to reveal flaws in his answer, while using thinking to slow down the other party's rhythm of attack.
At the same time, his movements did not slow down at all. During the struggle, Li Xiangnan suddenly grabbed the opponent's arm, and the touch was unexpectedly delicate.
The man struggled violently, and the sound of his coat tearing was particularly clear in the quiet night.
A strange fragrance hit me in the face - not the common scent of vanishing cream, but an extremely rare perfume with a cold floral note.
In the blink of an eye, the other party broke free and disappeared into the depths of the ruins after a few jumps.
Li Xiangnan stood up, holding only half of the torn sleeve in his hand. He quickly chased after the man and came out from the back door of Pudu Temple. The man had completely disappeared!
Standing on the long street late at night, there was silence all around, as if he was the only one left in the quiet world!
He brought the fabric to his nose, and the special aroma became even clearer.
Guo Qian caught up with him breathlessly: "Did you catch him?"
Li Xiangnan shook his head, "Captain Guo, you..."
"He's incredibly skilled. He's a martial artist, not just an ordinary person. He's very good at escaping. I smashed his foot and couldn't catch him!"
Guo Qian panted and looked at the quiet street. "How is it going over there? Have you found anything?"
Li Xiangnan's eyes were still fixed on the direction where the shadow disappeared: "It's a woman."
"Woman?" Guo Qian took the piece of cloth and smelled it in surprise. "This fragrance... is unusual."
Under the flashlight, Li Xiangnan spread out his palm, which was still stained with a hint of the fragrance from the other person's neck.
He gently twisted his fingertips, and his eyes gradually became deeper.
"Captain Guo, my prediction yesterday was correct. This explosion wasn't just aimed at the Mu family," Li Xiangnan said suddenly. "Someone is trying to use the explosion as bait to catch fish that have been hidden for decades. There must be a lot of forces involved!"
Guo Qian was stunned: "You mean..."
"The Mu family hasn't disappeared at all." Li Xiangnan looked towards the dark walls of the Forbidden City. "They've always been in Yanjing City."
Guo Qianshen agreed with this and was now even more certain that what Li Xiangnan said was true.
"Captain Guo! I have to go somewhere immediately!" Li Xiangnan put the piece of cloth into his pocket.
Guo Qian was stunned. "Where are you going?"
"I'm going to find Song Yi!"
Li Xiangnan's shadow cast a long shadow in the darkness.
"This fabric smells of perfume!"
"..." Guo Qian was stunned again, "What do you mean? The man in black just now was Song Yi?"
