Chapter 102: Counter-Kill
Following that loud noise, a truck with a similar appearance was seen overturned on the ground, the car body sliding a long way on the asphalt road before stopping!
All around was quiet, and there was no movement from the overturned truck.
After about 10 minutes, a figure was seen sneaking out of the bushes below the roadbed.
The figure first looked left and right, and after confirming that there was no one, he ran quickly toward the overturned truck. At this time, the sky had already darkened, and there were no other vehicles on the road. Except for the two headlights on the overturned car, the entire road was pitch black.
Seeing that the front windshield of the car was full of spiderweb-like cracks, and he couldn't see the faces of the people inside, he took a hammer out of his backpack and smashed the glass in front of the driver's seat with a "clatter", then shone a flashlight, only to be startled himself!
Before him was a completely unfamiliar man! "Not the Chang brothers!" the figure exclaimed!
After discovering something was wrong, he jumped up immediately and was about to flee the scene.
But unexpectedly, a sound of wind came from his ears, and then his head was hit by a heavy object, and his vision went black, and he lost consciousness!
Behind him, a man in black, wearing a hood with ear flaps and only his eyes exposed, was holding a crowbar!
Then, the man in black was seen dragging the unconscious figure away from the truck. He carefully avoided the dense, triangular-shaped iron nails on the road surface and dragged the person to the middle of the road.
Then a truck drove over and stopped about 200 meters away from the man in black. It was just that this car was a bit strange, looking pitch black all over, and it had no license plate or lights.
The man in black ran to the side of the truck bed, took out a large water jug from it, came to the unconscious figure, poured the ice-cold water from the jug onto his head, and immediately hid under the roadbed.
The person lying on the ground was awakened by the cold water. He bared his teeth and touched the back of his neck, instinctively struggling to stand up. At this time, he heard a roar of machinery. Looking in the direction of the sound, he saw a pitch-black thing rushing toward him!
By the time he saw clearly that it was a truck painted black, the front of the car had already crashed into him!
He felt his body hit by a force of ten thousand jun, and then his ears seemed to hear the sound of his own bones shattering, and then he felt himself become as light as a feather, suddenly floating far away...
In the direction of Nanyue Province, a 130 truck was driving forward at high speed. When the car reached a little-known village road in Huaxian, the car turned onto it. After more than half an hour, this car appeared again at the toll station at the border of Nanjiang Province and Xiangxi. It was just that no one noticed that the driver of this car looked somewhat similar to the driver of the truck of the same model but different license plate and color that had passed an hour ago.
And at this time, about five kilometers away from "Yanwang Cliff", a line of long-distance trucks was parked. 7 or 8 drivers were tired, panting, and sticking their butts out, clearing the rubble that completely blocked the road. These stones, the large ones weighing a hundred catties and the small ones weighing forty or fifty catties, were piled up messily for more than 100 meters. The road, which was not wide to begin with, was now completely impassable!
Two young men jumped out of the truck that had just driven over; it was the Chang Huaqiang brothers. They asked from afar what was going on, and after getting the answer from the driver in front, they also joined the work of clearing the stones.
With great difficulty, the stones were moved to both sides of the road, and the road was finally cleared. After the drivers greeted each other, they each drove their cars to continue their journey.
The cars drove forward one by one, but after less than ten minutes, the lead car slammed on the brakes and stopped just after passing "Yanwang Cliff"!
Amidst the cursing of the drivers behind, the lead car driver shouted: "Stop yelling, damn it! There's a car accident ahead! A truck overturned!"
———
The accident scene was under the jurisdiction of Huaxian. An hour later, the Huaxian traffic police team arrived at the scene. Of course, except for the reporting vehicle, other unrelated vehicles had already left the scene to continue their journey.
In addition to the seriously injured truck driver, a person who had been hit and killed by the car was also found at the scene. After identification by the traffic police, it was an acquaintance—a criminal police officer belonging to the same bureau, Shi Zhihao! Criminal police officer Old Shi! Because the person who died was a police officer, and a criminal police officer, the traffic police team did not dare to be negligent and immediately notified the county Gongan Bureau.
When Deputy Director Du, who was in charge of criminal investigation, arrived with his people, the traffic police had already found several triangular iron nails, commonly known as iron caltrops, from the tires. Such nails, when thrown on the ground, would always have one point facing up, and each point, like a triangular bayonet, had grooves. As long as they pierced the tire, it would cause a blowout instantly!
And what made Deputy Director Du even more embarrassed was that not only was a listening device found in the car, but several unused iron caltrops and listening equipment were also found in Old Shi's bag, which he had thrown under the roadbed.
As for why he appeared in this place where there was no village in front and no shop behind, everyone probably had quite a few guesses in their hearts!
It was obviously not feasible to handle this matter as a traffic accident, so Deputy Director Du made a decisive decision to file a criminal case for investigation!
As for the investigation results, it was conceivable. I'm afraid Old Shi would never have thought until his death that he would leave this world with the identity of a highway robber.
The Chang brothers' truck drove to a desolate section of Nanyue territory. Chang Huaqiang drove the car off the national highway and drove into the forest along a small road. Seeing that their car could no longer be seen from the national highway, Chang Huaqiang stopped the car, and he and Chang Huazhong pulled a pile of black film-like things out of the cargo bed and threw them into the forest.
It turned out that Chang Huaqiang and the others had set off from Zizhen a day in advance. After passing the toll station of their own province, before entering Xiangxi, they drove the car to a remote place, used agricultural film combined with transparent tape to stick it on the car body, then painted black paint on the film, and then changed to the local license plate prepared in advance. It wasn't until dark that they drove swaggeringly toward the toll station at the Xiangxi border.
At that time, there was basically no surveillance on the national highway, and there were only a few cameras at each toll station (and it couldn't be guaranteed that every toll station had them).
After passing the toll station, the car was about to drive to the "Yanwang Cliff" section. Chang Huazhong opened the rear tailgate of the cargo bed, used a crowbar to throw the large stones prepared inside onto the road one by one. After finishing all this, the two drove the car near "Yanwang Cliff". After seeing the car coming from the opposite direction, Chang Huazhong, who had been waiting at the roadblock disguised as a road maintenance worker, stopped the vehicle, informed them that this section of the road didn't know when it would be restored to traffic, and pointed them to a small road that could bypass it, but it required returning to "Yanwang Cliff"...
The matter came to an end. After the Chang brothers returned from Nanyue, they sold the truck and simply rented a storefront in the busiest old city area of Zizhen City, and started a clothing, shoe, and hat business...
———
Suddenly, on the street outside the New World, a burst of joyful shouting erupted in the crowd. The century-old bronze bell in the Bell and Drum Tower in the Jiangnan District, separated by a river, sent out "Clang, clang, clang" bell sounds!
"Big Brother, make a fortune in the new century!" Chang Huazhong raised the wine glass in his hand!
"Let our brothers, let the Chang family, let the Zhong Sheng Group! Rise to a higher level! Forever glorious!" Chang Huaqiang also raised the wine glass in his hand and said heroically.
And at this time, Gu Changzheng, who had been announced by the entire system to be under investigation by the Procuratorate, appeared alone in a small restaurant opposite the New World. ===== CHAPTER 103 =====
