Chapter 450 Reporting to Lao Li
Inside the car, Su Tianyu's negative emotions were beyond words. He hadn't slept since the Tianhong Port incident last night. He was already exhausted, and had been busy searching for clues. Before any hope appeared, something happened at the association again.
Zhang Hao's arrest and Uncle You's death by gunfire filled Su Tianyu with guilt.
But who could he blame? His own brother?
Su Tiannan didn't want this to happen either! From his point of view, he had no choice. Zhang Chao had saved his and Lu Feng's lives during the old Pang incident. Now that Zhang Chao was in trouble, his brother's character wouldn't allow him to ignore it, especially since they were childhood friends.
What's done is done, and there's no going back. Su Tianyu could only do everything possible to quickly find the thugs and rescue Zhang Hao.
Saving a living person was the priority!
With that thought, Su Tianyu adjusted his mindset and sped towards the Municipal Building.
The association's case couldn't be hidden, but the actual situation couldn't be revealed to the Coast Guard. So, Su Tianyu planned to discuss the situation with Li Mingsheng, because he felt that the Baolong Corporation was involved in this incident.
...
About half an hour later.
Su Tianyu arrived at the Municipal Building and met Li Mingsheng, led by Director Liu.
Inside the office, Su Tianyu sat on the sofa and told Li Mingsheng the details of the chain of events.
After listening, Old Li frowned and scolded, "Damn it, you guys are too bold. You dare to harbor armed murderers?!"
Su Tianyu, with his hands clasped, replied truthfully, "I... I agreed to put them in the association because Zhang Chao mentioned the old Pang case. I thought it was related to the Baolong Corporation, so I allowed them to hide in the association and planned to send them to the Chi Army at night to get the details from Zhang Chao. But I didn't expect them to react so quickly. I still don't know how they knew Zhang Chao was hiding in the association."
Li Mingsheng frowned and glanced at Su Tianyu, "You mean the shootout at Tianhong Port last night was also related to the Baolong Corporation?"
"I wouldn't say the entire incident was led by the Baolong Corporation, but they definitely had a part in it." Su Tianyu frowned, "Zhang Chao told me that the mining manager, old Pang, was just cooperating with others to run a drug testing company, obtaining supplies from major pharmaceutical groups by trafficking people. But I think that's a lie."
"How so?"
"What level was old Pang? He was among the top tier in the Baolong Corporation!" Su Tianyu replied, "How could someone like that directly cooperate with a company responsible for trafficking people, and how could Zhang Chao and others easily find out the information and end up kidnapping him?"
Old Li was silent.
"And the most important thing. It hasn't even been a day since my brother brought Zhang Chao to the association, and the other side was able to find him. Isn't that scary?" Su Tianyu said softly, "Is that something ordinary human traffickers can do?"
"That is indeed very unusual," Old Li agreed.
"Leader, the shooting at Tianhong Port last night, the kidnapping of old Pang, and now the incident at the association, these three cases are strongly related. The things hidden behind them may be far beyond our imagination." Su Tianyu added, "I think we can investigate it. First, if this matter is directly related to Baolong, or the political relationships of Baolong's upper echelons are involved, then catching the tail of this thread will have a very large impact on the current stalemate in negotiations. Second, human trafficking involves many lower-level Chinese outside the district. Even from a humanitarian standpoint, the judicial department should investigate this case."
Old Li glanced at Su Tianyu, "You want me to tell the Coast Guard not to investigate the shooting at the association, right?"
"Yes, because I can't explain to the higher-ups that my brother hid Zhang Chao," Su Tianyu replied truthfully.
Old Li pondered for a moment, "Okay, I'll have Li Yuan take care of it."
Su Tianyu nodded.
Old Li slowly got up, pointed at Su Tianyu and said, "Investigate it and notify me directly of the results."
"Yes!" Su Tianyu immediately stood up.
...
Inside the hospital.
While waiting for news of the emergency treatment, Hou Guoyu went through the entire incident in his mind.
A strangely appearing little girl, acting weirdly, dragged him around the streets several times.
Less than a day after bringing her home, a group of thugs suddenly appeared, openly firing guns, even choosing to kill in order to take the little girl back.
This was too strange.
Who exactly was this little girl?
Thinking of this, Hou Guoyu suddenly thought of the shooting at Tianhong Port last night.
Less than ten hours after the incident, the little girl appeared, right near the Coast Guard. After seeing Hou Guoyu, she pointed to his police badge several times, dragging him to other places.
Was that also a coincidence?
Hou Guoyu felt that something was wrong, and at the same time, the anger in his heart was rising to his head.
"Ding-dong!"
Just then, the door of the emergency room opened, and the doctor took off his mask and walked out.
"Doctor, how is my father?!" Hou Guoyu rushed over and asked.
"Severe concussion, with a small amount of bleeding in the skull. He needs to be sent to the intensive care unit for observation. If the bleeding gets worse, he will definitely need surgery." The doctor frowned, "Go pay the bill."
"Doctor, please help...!"
"Treating patients is our duty, go pay the bill."
"Can I see my father?" Hou Guoyu asked.
"No, he needs to rest. He needs to go to the intensive care unit." The doctor shook his head, "He probably won't wake up until very late."
While the two were talking, the nurse pushed the old father out and sent him directly to the intensive care unit through the sterile glass passage.
Looking at his father's pale face and purple lips on the hospital bed, the anger in Hou Guoyu's heart rose to his head again.
Five minutes later.
Hou Guoyu swiped his credit card and borrowed some money from relatives to pay the medical expenses.
After taking a look at his father in the special care ward, he gritted his teeth and left quickly.
He needed to find the murderer. He knew a clue that no one else knew, so he had to go back to the Coast Guard first.
...
Inside the Coast Guard.
Director Cheng received a call from Li Yuan, "Hello?"
"Director Cheng, Su Tianyu may have more information about the shooting at Tianhong Port last night. Try to let the task force's investigation follow his ideas." Li Yuan said directly.
Director Cheng immediately replied, "Okay, I understand, Secretary Li!"
Night, around eight forty.
When Su Tianyu returned to the Coast Guard, he ran into Hou Guoyu, who had just returned.
"Deputy Team Leader Su, I have important clues to tell you!" Hou Guoyu walked over quickly.
