Chapter 202: Everyone Carries a Gun

Han Yating shook her head and said, "Only he got out of the car alone, and he was very normal that night. After going upstairs, he turned off the lights and rested in five or six minutes."

Seeing Li Xuewu finish asking, Xu Ning asked, "Do you mean Hu Zhengquan... at the end of the banquet, Han Gong...? But why? According to our investigation, their relationship is quite good."

Li Xuewu looked at Xu Ning and asked, "Do you still remember the sack Hu Zhengquan was sitting on yesterday?"

Xu Ning's eyes widened instantly, thinking of the sack that Hu Zhengquan was sitting on in the telescope and was kicked into the ice hole by a young man. He asked in disbelief, "Do you mean?"

Li Xuewu asked Han Yating, "Did Han Gong have any special actions on the day of the search on Saturday? Why take him to the banquet?"

Han Yating tried hard to recall the details at the time and said, "Han Gong is a talkative person, but he didn't say much that day. He was also a bit afraid of Hu Zhengquan. No, that's not right, it's not that he didn't say much, it's that he didn't have many opportunities to speak. Hu Zhengquan, who usually doesn't like to talk, kept talking to me."

Han Yating recalled the scene after Xu Sinuian entered the office and said, "Hu Zhengquan insisted on dragging Han Gong along. Han Gong refused, but Director Xu also persuaded him, and only then did Han Gong agree."

Li Xuewu tapped his fingers on the desk and said, "That document is in Hu Zhengquan's desk. Han Gong must have discovered something."

Xu Ning and Han Yating both widened their eyes in surprise.

Han Yating asked, "Since you know, why didn't you...?"

Xu Ning had figured something out. Combining it with Li Xuewu always saying he had a backup plan, he seemed to have understood something and asked Li Xuewu, "Li Kezhang, is that document yours? Are you preparing to chase Hu Zhengquan to the person behind him?"

"But since Han Gong discovered it, why didn't he tell us?"

Li Xuewu nodded and said, "I really want to see what tricks they can play. Starting today, increase the monitoring intensity on him. I'm afraid he's going to run. He will definitely find a way to take the document out today. Arrange a program for him after work today to make him run."

Answering Xu Ning's first question, Li Xuewu thought for a while, shook his head, and said, "As for what Han Gong was thinking, I don't know either. That will have to be asked of Han Gong himself."

Han Yating asked again, "What is that document?"

Li Xuewu said sternly, "It's a classified document until this case is over."

Xu Ning had already seen Li Xuewu's meaning. He whispered a few words to Han Yating. Han Yating looked at Li Xuewu speechlessly, but couldn't help but admire the section chief's ability, secretly thinking that no man is a good thing.

Li Xuewu waved his hand and said, "Xu Ning, arrange for people to go to the spot where Hu Zhengquan was fishing to take a look. Try using a rope and a claw hook to see if you can fish it up. I estimate that sack is it."

Xu Ning and Han Yating were also full of sadness. Although they didn't have much contact with Han Gong, he was killed in a place where they were negligent. Thinking of Han Gong's family, they all blamed themselves inwardly.

Xu Ning asked, "Should we report it to the factory?"

Li Xuewu narrowed his eyes and said, "Even if you don't report it, the factory will investigate him. Who picked him up that day, where he was sent, how he disappeared—the factory will investigate all of it."

"Immortal Wood Strange Fate"

Xu Ning glanced at Han Yating and then asked, "Do you mean Liu Fusheng? Heh, I really want to see how he investigates. He's usually quiet. I don't know when he started wearing the same pair of pants as Li Kezhang Fu. I really underestimated him."

Seeing Han Yating's expression was wrong, Li Xuewu stopped Xu Ning with his eyes.

Xu Ning also knew about the relationship between Han Yating and Liu Fusheng, but he and Liu Fusheng were also colleagues, so he didn't avoid the two when saying this.

"Then we won't report it? Will we be held accountable for this later?"

"If it really is, then reporting is useless; it will only alert the enemy. If it's fake, then it's reporting false military intelligence, which is another trouble. So, let's do it ourselves. Make a few more ice holes and use the principle of dragging a net to pull a few more times over there."

Xu Ning said somewhat embarrassedly, "Li Kezhang, this may be a bit difficult. You also know how deep that lake is, and it's flowing water. It's frozen on top, but it's flowing underneath."

The Kunming Lake at this time was deeper than in later generations. The shallow places were more than three meters deep, and the deep places were close to five meters. This might be related to the heavy rainfall in the past two years. Furthermore, the water in Kunming Lake came from Yuquan Mountain, which is the Yuquan Mountain that the royal family and the people of the Beijing city are particular about drinking from. The water at the bottom of the lake flows all year round.

Li Xuewu pointed to his head to signal Xu Ning to think more and said, "If there's no added weight, it will float up in a few days. You can see a black patch on the lake when you stand on the ice. They won't do that. If weight is added, it will still be in the original position range."

"So I said let you try. If you can't find it in the original position, then wait. Wait for Han Gong to come up himself. That would be simple."

Xu Ning understood Li Xuewu's meaning and didn't say anything more, knowing how to arrange it in his heart.

Li Xuewu seemed to have remembered something, tapped the table, and said, "Was there anything unusual about the postman yesterday?"

Xu Ning shook his head and said, "Nothing unusual. Zhaolun followed him all the way to their house and didn't see him contact anyone."

Seeing the clue was broken, Li Xuewu sat in the chair and thought for a moment, saying, "Forget it. From the moment he got this document, he had to start running. That is to say, from the moment he left the factory, the battle began. Starting tonight, we'll have our hands full."

Xu Ning said excitedly, "After following him for so many days, we're finally going to close the net. I apply to be on the front line tonight."

Li Xuewu waved his hand and said, "You know where the front line is. Just stay in the Security Squad. We can't do without you here. Remember my words, we will definitely need you tonight. Wait for my orders then."

Li Xuewu looked at the somewhat sentimental Han Yating and said, "Put aside emotional matters. You come with me to watch the target tonight. Bring your guns well. If he wants to run tonight, there's a high possibility of a firefight."

Han Yating sorted out her thoughts and asked, "Should I still take that group? Do we need to add more manpower?"

Li Xuewu shook his head and said, "Don't make too much noise now. Like this, everyone in your group carries a gun, both long and short. Our firepower is enough. There will be reinforcements then. Besides, Xu Ning is on standby in the factory area, and there are dozens of people to support us at any time."

After the meeting, Xu Ning saw that Han Yating had something to say to Li Xuewu, so he nodded to Li Xuewu and went out to make arrangements.

After Xu Ning left, Han Yating stood in front of Li Xuewu, feeling somewhat lonely and guilty, and said, "Li Kezhang, it's my fault. It was my work error that caused this consequence. And Liu Fusheng, I really didn't know he would..."
