Chapter 1437: Eyewitness
Yin s.h.i.+xiong perked up and asked in greater detail.
“Specifically which part of your head hurt? How long did it last? And what happened after the pain?”
Jia Ting answered the questions one by one.
After Yin s.h.i.+xiong recorded the answers down and asked again, nothing else of value could be gleanmed.
He pushed the conversation record over and said, “Thank you for your cooperation. To be on the safe side, we still need to conduct a lie detector test on you. Please sign right here.”
Jia Ting panicked. “Ah? No way? I’m not lying! I swear I’m not lying! Why do you need to conduct a polygraph test?!”
“What are you afraid of if you’re not lying?” Yin s.h.i.+xiong’s face was stern. “Don’t tell me you’re really hiding something?!”
“I… I… I’m hiding something… I wasn’t on night call last night. I went to get a room with someone yesterday…” Jia Ting was about to cry. “You guys won’t tell my wife, right?”
Yin s.h.i.+xiong was so angry that he burst into laughter. He slammed the table and roared, “If you don’t tell me the truth, I’ll tell your wife! Go and take a lie detector test!”
Fifteen minutes later, Jia Ting, was helped out of the lie detector room. He had been reduced to a sobbing mess by the lie detector, such that he confessed all the bad things he had done since he was a child.
He cried so hard that his mental state was turbulent. The special operations forces had no choice but to find a psychiatrist to comfort him.
Yin s.h.i.+xiong speechlessly placed the interrogation record in front of Huo Shaoheng and said, “Huo Shao, I’m afraid this person doesn’t have any secrets. He just appeared at the wrong place at the wrong time.”
Huo Shaoheng looked through it and focused on the part where Jia Ting claimed that he had a headache. He said, “What about his car? Have you searched it?”
“Yes, it’s an oil truck. I checked it carefully three times and even used x-rays to scan it. These are all the pictures. There’s nothing unusual in the car, no inner layer, and no hidden person.” Yin s.h.i.+xiong said in disappointment.
Huo Shaoheng looked through all the pictures expressionlessly and knocked on the interrogation record. “Check his body and do an MRI scan.”
Yin s.h.i.+xiong, “…”
Although he didn’t understand, he still followed Huo Shaoheng’s instructions and took the crying Jia Ting to do an MRI.
As the name implied, an MRI used the principle of nuclear magnetic field to produce resonance. According to the different energy released, special equipment was used to check the electromagnetic waves emitted to determine the position and shape of human organs, thus, it can determine if the person is with disease.
The results of the nuclear magnetic resonance this time showed that Jia Ting’s brain had just been disturbed by infrasound.
Normal infrasound waves cannot be detected by the human ear because of its extremely low frequency.
However, infrasound waves of certain frequencies are similar to the vibration frequency of certain organs in the human body. They can produce resonance, and when the resonance is serious, it can directly cause death.
This infrasound of a similar frequency to the vibration of human organs and there has already been infrasound weapons being developed in national weapons laboratories worldwide.
The infrasound that Jia Ting received was very similar to the vibration of his brain, so it caused a moment of intense pain in his head. However, because the time was very short, it did not cause any danger to his life.
Yin s.h.i.+xiong pointed to the MRI results and said, “Huo Shao, the other party is very powerful. They even have an infrasound wave weapon. It’s not something an ordinary person can make, right?”
Huo Shaoheng was silent.
To his knowledge, no country could make an infrasound wave weapon of this level. It seemed so easy to control and release it.
Perhaps there was a country in the midst of a secret experiment, why is why they had not received any information on it. Hence, this possibility could not be ruled out.
However, this was further proof that the other party’s weapons were extremely advanced. Similarly, just like with Xiao Ye, the other party did not kill the truck driver, Jia Ting. They only used him to cover for them.
After Jia Ting’s investigation ended, the special operations forces received a number of calls from witnesses. They were all talking about how four identical black SUVs suddenly appeared at the intersection.
..
Witness A said, “Yes, I was there at the time. I saw it. I was puzzled. I even told my wife that they were probably filming a show. Four identical black SUVs suddenly appeared.”
The operator of the special operations force asked, “Did you see the people in the car? How many people were sitting in the car? What did they look like? What were they wearing?”
Witness A said, “One person. I only saw a driver inside. He was dressed in black. I couldn’t see him clearly. You must know that there were so many cars and they were driving so fast. My eyes could only dart over and take a glimpse.”
…
Witness B said, “I was in a tall building near the intersection. I was looking through my binoculars… anyway, I was looking into the distance with my binoculars. Then, four identical black SUVs appeared in my field of vision. I remembered them because they appeared too suddenly and too quickly. Of course, maybe it was because my field of vision was too narrow but I couldn’t see clearly how they came over.”
The operator of the special operations force asked, “Could you see the people in the car? How many people are in the car? What did they look like? What were they wearing?”
Witness B said, “… how can I see the people in the car when I’m looking down from a height?”
..
Witness C said, “I saw it. At that time, my car was even grazed by one of the black SVs. By the way, comrade, if you find this car, can you give me the driver’s contact information? I want to seek compensation from him.”
Special operations force operator asked, “Could you see the person in the car? How many people were sitting in the car? What did they look like? What were they wearing?”
Witness C said, “One person. There is only one person in the black SUV that I saw. He is wearing black clothes. If you find him, you must inform me. I want to seek compensation from him.”
…
After summarizing the testimonies of all the witnesses, they came to the conclusion that there was only one person visible in the four black SUVs. All four of them were wearing black clothes. They must have been in some kind of uniform.
So, was Gu Nianzhi hidden in the car, or was she not in the car at all?
Could it be that all four of the cars were just a front?
After a whole day of searching, they seemed to have come to a dead end in their pursuit of the lead on the big truck and the black SUV.
Time pa.s.sed, minute by minute. They could not see any light or hope. They had no choice but to seize this cover.
Even if it was a cover, Huo Shaoheng knew that he could only continue to pursue it.
Before he found these four cars, he couldn’t treat them as a cover.
In other words, the other party had dug four holes for him, and he knew it was a hole, but he had to jump in.
Because what if one of them wasn’t a hole?
He couldn’t afford the price and consequences of a misjudgment, so he had to jump in.
“Continue to investigate the four cars and increase the bounty. I’ll personally make up for the deficiencies.” Huo Shaoheng raised his hand and ordered indifferently.
“Yes, sir.” Yin s.h.i.+xiong wrote it down and sent another memo to the police.
..
Everyone worked nervously. At eight o’clock in the evening, Zhou Qiyuan called.
“Huo, Xiao Ye’s surgery is done.”
He stood at the door of the operating room and looked at Chen Lie, who had just come out of the operating room. He reported the results to Huo Shaoheng.
After more than ten hours of surgery, Chen Lie was exhausted and his limbs were weak. He just wanted to lie down on the sofa and drink a cup of coffee to refresh himself.
He waved his hand at Zhou Qiyuan and said weakly, “It’s alright. The fracture of the right wrist has been fixed and she needs to be rehabilitated. The gunshot wound on her left hand shattered the wrist bone, and the bullet was removed. Although it was not a fatal injury, the left wrist will be disabled.”
Xiao Ye’s right wrist was broken, but the other party had shot her left wrist and shattered the wrist bone.
“How serious is it?” Zhou Qiyuan frowned at Chen Lie. “Is she completely disabled, or…”
Chen lie sighed and shook his head. “She’s not completely disabled, but it’s true that she won’t be able to use her strength. Fortunately, she’s not left-handed. Otherwise, she would really be done for.”
Her right hand was merely fractured. As long as she recovered, shooting would not be a problem. But if she couldn’t use her left hand, it would affect her marksmans.h.i.+p because her sense of balance would be out of whack.
Anyone who had shot before knew that if her sense of balance was out of whack, it would be impossible for her to be a sharpshooter.
“What about her arms and legs?” Zhou Qiyuan could still remember the many wounds on Xiao Ye’s body. She had been bleeding profusely.
“The bullets from those wounds have also been removed. Thank G.o.d that the opponent’s bullets were still intact and didn’t shatter into pieces.” Chen lie wiped his face, “However, although the bones were not injured, the damage to the muscles was very serious. Everything still depends on her recovery effect. It’s still hard to say at this point.”
Chen Lie held his back and walked out of the room. He leaned against the wall. “Moreover, she has lost too much blood, she will not be waking up for the time being.”
…
Chen Lie returned to his office and sat down. His face was blank.
Xiao Ye was his cousin. After seeing his cousin in such a state, Chen Lie’s heart was filled with sadness.
Before he started the surgery, he almost declined because he was worried that his emotions would be unstable and that he would make mistakes.
However, after examining Xiao Ye’s injuries, he still decided to do it himself. Because the injuries were so serious, he was reluctant to hand it over to someone else.
After the surgery ended, Xiao Ye was transferred to the intensive care unit. Zhou Qiyuan informed Xiao Ye’s parents.
General Xiao of the General a.s.sembly and President Chen of the Military Academy.
…
At 10 pm, Chen Lie rested for two hours. When he got up to write the medical report in his office, the door of his office was pushed open.
He looked up and saw his aunt, President Chen of the Military Academy, Xiao Ye’s mother, rush in with tears in her eyes. General Xiao followed behind her.
General Xiao looked calm, but his expression did not look good.
Their daughter was beaten up to this state. Naturally, their expressions would not look good.
“Chen Lie, how is Xiao Ye’s condition? Is she really going to be disabled?” President Chen had just gone to see Xiao Ye in the ICU.
After seeing his daughter, who was still alive and kicking up a fuss with her a few days ago, lying down with an oxygen mask, President Chen’s heart felt like it was being stabbed by a knife.
In Chen Lie’s office, the refined and virtuous President Chen leaned on Heneral Xiao’s shoulder and sobbed softly.
