Chapter 2218: He"s Caught
The man laughed at himself for a moment. He knew he didn"t have to lose his life if he had only committed that single crime, but he had actually broken the law several times.
Once he was caught, the other crimes he had committed would be exposed too and he would be sentenced to death.
"What? You"re not willing to tell me?" Gu Ning asked when the man still refused to open his mouth, but she could also see that the man was hesitating. He wasn"t determined. However, he still kept his mouth shut.
"Well, it seems you don"t care about your life at all. If so, I don"t need to bother to waste more time on you. You won"t be honest anyway. It must be one of Song Wenxuan"s compet.i.tors. He"ll come out sooner or later." Since the man was reluctant to tell her, Gu Ning wouldn"t force him to do so, since it would be a total waste of time.
As she said, even if the man told her a name, it might not be true, because there were several people who had the motive. He could tell her a random name to fool her.
The man didn"t expect Gu Ning to stop asking him so soon, and he suddenly didn"t know what to do. "What do you want to do?" he stayed alert, looking at Gu Ning.
The man felt that if Gu Ning really wanted to know who was the mastermind, he would be safe for the time being. After all, she couldn"t hurt him in order to find out who the mastermind was. However, it seemed that she didn"t care about it at all.
"What do I want to do? You"re not afraid of death. Why do you even care about what I want to do? Since you"re not afraid of death, I"ll just kill you," Gu Ning sneered and went to attack the man at once.
Gu Ning wouldn"t really kill him, because she didn"t want to kill people and this man couldn"t die right now. Even if he refused to tell her who the mastermind was, she still needed to put him in jail.
She did that in order to tell the person who paid this man and other people who had the idea of murdering Song Wenxuan that Song Wenxuan wasn"t vulnerable.
The mastermind would also be nervous after this man was caught, because this man might betray him. The mastermind wouldn"t live comfortably from now on.
However, it was also possible that the mastermind wasn"t afraid of being exposed. He shouldn"t be an idiot, and might have ordered someone else to pay this man to kill Song Wenxuan.
Seeing Gu Ning attacking him, the man fought back right away. Although he knew Gu Ning wasn"t weak, it didn"t mean he was scared of her and didn"t dare to fight back. On the contrary, in order to survive, he had to do his best.
The man wasn"t weak among ordinary people, but compared to Gu Ning, he was no match and Gu Ning easily caught him in a few moments.
No matter how he struggled, the man couldn"t get rid of Gu Ning"s hands.
It shocked and scared him, because Gu Ning was much stronger than he imagined.
Afterwards, the man felt despair. It seemed he was doomed to be caught by Gu Ning.
Gu Ning then knocked the man unconscious before calling Song Wenxuan and telling him that the gunman was already caught. She was going to hand the man to him.
It wasn"t early now, but Song Wenxuan couldn"t sleep, because he had just been through a terrible experience today. He hadn"t recovered from it yet.
When Song Wenxuan received Gu Ning"s call and heard the news, he directly sat up on the bed in shock. "What? You caught the gunman?"
It was unbelievable! Even the police had no clue yet, but Gu Ning already caught the gunman.
"Yeah, but he refused to tell me who the mastermind is. Even if he told me, it might not be true, so I didn"t continue to question him. After all, there are a few suspects, so it"s possible for any of them to be guilty. I"ll hand it over to you now, and I"ll carry out a further investigation using this man"s ident.i.ty," said Gu Ning.
She didn"t know who the man was, so she couldn"t get more information earlier on, but now that she learned the man"s name, ID number, and bank account, she could conduct a further investigation.
"Sure, I"ll send people to take him," said Song Wenxuan.
Before the police came, Gu Ning collected the man"s ID card and bank cards, then took a picture of them so that K could investigate further.
In addition, in case the gunman didn"t use his own ID card to apply for the phone number, Gu Ning used his phone to call her number and added his number to her contacts.
Half an hour later, two police cars showed up downstairs.
Song Wenxuan didn"t come, because it wasn"t convenient for him to go around now. Only his secretary and the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau came. The deputy director of the Public Security Bureau was in the same faction as Song Wenxuan, so he was reliable.
In front of Song Wenxuan"s secretary and other people, Gu Ning didn"t bother to disguise herself any longer, so she removed her mask.
Because Gu Ning caught the murderer, they all admired her very much.
Once they arrived, Gu Ning left, in case they asked her all kinds of questions.
And because of Gu Ning"s special status, n.o.body dared to stop her from leaving.
It was already 1 am when Gu Ning got back to the hotel, so she washed herself and went to sleep.
Early the next morning, Gu Ning sent K the man"s ID number, bank account and phone number, then asked him to conduct a further investigation.
Because it was too late yesterday and it wasn"t an emergency, she didn"t bother K and waited till this morning.
After that, Gu Ning brought Gao Yi to the Song family and met Song Wenxuan.
The Song family was very grateful to Gu Ning, because she had saved Song Wenxuan"s life and even caught the criminal.
"Is the Leng family aware of it?" Gu Ning asked Song Wenxuan.
"Not yet, but I"ll call Master Leng later. They"ll be worried if they hear the news, but I think they need to know," said Song Wenxuan.
"Sure, it"s necessary for them to know that," said Gu Ning.
Therefore, on Song Wenxuan"s way to work, he called Master Leng.
When Master Leng heard the news, he was angry, but he wasn"t surprised. After all, he had been involved in politics for years, so it wasn"t surprising. In fact, he had encountered a.s.sa.s.sination attempts countless times before, especially when he was the chairman of the country.
It wasn"t surprising, but they had to catch the mastermind, or their enemies might think they were easy to bully.
Song Wenxuan also told Master Leng that Gu Ning had helped him a lot, otherwise he would have been seriously injured even if he could survive. It was also Gu Ning who caught the criminal so quickly.
Hearing that, Master Leng felt very proud of his future granddaughter-in-law, but he was worried about Gu Ning"s safety as well.
