Ji Feng sat in Li Ruo Nan's car and arrived at the outskirts of a residential area located at the junction of the urban and rural areas.
This area had yet to be demolished, so it was rather crowded. There were large red words on the walls that explained why it was so crowded here.
"This kind of place is a mix of fish and dragons, most of whom are migrant workers. Many of them work for two s.h.i.+fts or even three s.h.i.+fts, and normally don't even see each other even once every few days." Li Ruonian parked the car a few hundred meters away from the house and got off, this was to prevent alerting the bandits.
Ji Feng lightly nodded his head, "In that case, this place is truly suitable for hiding!"
Li Ruonian said, "Actually, this kind of place is always easy to deal with, because before we moved here, most of the landlords here were from the same village. They were all familiar with each other, so they couldn't hide anything from us. But it's different now, the landlords almost all live here and almost all rent apartments here. "
She paused and then continued, "The target we are looking for this time is in the middle of the village. We haven't found anyone leaving, so we might have to make a move later. Why don't you wait outside the village?"
Ji Feng asked, "Can't I go in and help?"
Li Ruonian said, "This is our police's own matter, and this case has not been solved, so … …"
Ji Feng nodded his head and smiled, "Understood. "Then I'll wait outside."
Ji Feng smiled as he waved his hand, "Being able to bring me here is already very nice. How would I need you to thank me? Strictly speaking, I should thank you."
"Then I'll go over first." Seeing that Ji Feng understood her, Li Ruo Nan smiled and said.
Ji Feng nodded with a smile.
Seeing Li Ruo Nan bringing a few policemen into the village, Ji Feng couldn't help but shake his head and smile. The relations.h.i.+p between him and Li Ruo Nan had finally eased up a bit, but it would be impossible for them to regain their former relations.h.i.+p.
In the past, whenever they met Li Ruo Nan, the two of them would always argue a little. But now, they were very polite when they met each other, as if they had changed from friends to acquaintances.
He could still be considered a friend!
However, Ji Feng was very clear that in the future, they would most likely not meet again. Although he didn't have any worries, in reality, there was still something he needed to do. He wanted to avoid meeting her as much as possible.
Ji Feng stood by the roadside and casually lit up a cigarette. He leisurely took a few puffs and his thoughts drifted back to Beijing.
After w.a.n.g Wengao was silenced, this clue of the prince was broken. Who was number one? From w.a.n.g Wengao, it was no longer possible to continue investigating. He also didn't know how the military had investigated the matter regarding w.a.n.g Wengao's silencing.
Back then, when w.a.n.g Wengao was in such a heavily guarded area, he had also warned Xiang Yongzheng that he was silenced. This made Ji Feng feel a chill run down his spine. He really didn't know how far the empire was able to infiltrate into China and even attack the barracks. If it was like there was no one around, then what about other places?
Ji Feng didn't dare to think too deeply about this, so his thoughts returned to w.a.n.g Wengao. When he thought about what w.a.n.g Wengao had said, the most shocking thing was undoubtedly Number One's ident.i.ty.
Wu Zhengmin!
But whether this is true or not, Ji Feng was both shocked and doubtful.
However, w.a.n.g Wengao was now dead. He could no longer confirm whether what he said was true or false.
"Bang!" "Bang, bang!"
He was sure that it was a gunshot just now. In Ji Feng's mind, he immediately thought that Li Ruo Man and her men had started to capture the criminals, but they resisted and had thus opened fire.
Ji Feng rushed into the village as fast as he could. In his mind, he recalled Li Ruonian saying that the bandits were in the middle of the village. Just as he was about to follow the main road, he heard another gunshot: "Bang!"
Ji Feng's expression suddenly changed. This was the sound of a sniper rifle!
There was a sniper!
Moreover, the gunshots were coming from the other direction, but the houses on both sides of the road blocked his sight, so he could only rely on the sound to determine the location of the sniper. Ji Feng had no time to think whether the sniper was a gang of bandits or the police, so he could only rush to the center of the village as fast as he could.
Soon, he saw Li Ruonian and a few policemen hiding in front of a small shop. On the road, the two of them were lying on the ground motionlessly with blood flowing on the ground beside them. Ji Feng's heart couldn't help but sink when he saw that there were no movements from the two of them.
Ji Feng immediately understood that the sniper wasn't a member of the police, but he didn't feel any danger so he still ran over. He then quickly jumped on top of the wall and looked around, but he couldn't find any trace of the sniper.
"He's gone!" Ji Feng jumped off the wall and shook his head.
One of the police officers was furious: "Captain, immediately inform the station that there is a sniper. This is definitely not a small case, it would be best if we could stop him at a nearby intersection to investigate, and try our best to stop that sniper!"
Li Ruonian nodded, then said to the police, "Report this to the station immediately!"
Ji Feng waved his hand. "It's fine. I was just taking a look. Are these two bandits?"
While arranging for people to be on alert, Li Ruonian nodded and said, "Yes. When we arrived, we found that one of the bandits was shopping in the grocery store. As soon as we arrived, he noticed us and pulled out his weapon in an attempt to fight back, so we had no choice but to fire.
Another person heard the gunshot coming from the back of the house and tried to escape. Just as we were about to capture him, he was killed by a sniper! "
Ji Feng was surprised when he heard it, "He was killed by a sniper? So the sniper isn't in the same boat as these two gangsters? "
Ji Feng shook his head. It was no longer important to him when that sniper had arrived. The most important thing was that he had come to silence them. This proved that this case was not as simple as it seemed.
Without another word, Ji Feng immediately turned around and dashed in the direction where the sniper rifle had come from.
"Sigh …"
Ji Feng was jumping up and down on the rooftop. From afar, he could see a black car on the road outside the village.
… ….
Before Li Ruo Nan and the rest could settle down, Ji Feng had already returned.
"I'll send out the verification report right now!" Li Ruo Nan immediately said.
Ji Feng didn't stay at the scene for long. He wasn't a police officer and he didn't have any direct connection to this case, so he left when Li Ruo Nan was dealing with the case.
He stayed in Jiangzhou for another two days, and on the afternoon of the third day, when he went to the police station to investigate the case, he found out that the sniper had not been apprehended.
Although there were policemen rus.h.i.+ng to the nearby crossroads after Li Ruonian sent out the investigation that day, there was still no sign of the black duke.
Ji Feng was not surprised by this. If it was so easy to capture that sniper, then he did not need to come and kill himself.
Fortunately, Ji Shaorei had given him good news. He had found a suitable bodyguard, two men and two women.
Two of the women took turns to protect Rong Luo Yan, while the two men were in charge of Rong Peng's safety.
Unfortunately, Ji Feng did not see Rong Luo Yan until he left the Jiang Prefecture. He also did not know how she was and how injured she was.
