Chapter 1312 Silencing

"Go to hell!"

Just when Tan Ruiqi was about to continue talking about their friendship with Chen Jiaju, Hu Li on the side suddenly pulled out a pistol and shouted.

Bang——

The next second, a gunshot rang out. Before Tan Ruiqi could finish talking about his close relationship with Chen Jiaju's father, he reached out and covered his chest.

"I" Tan Ruiqi looked at his bloody palm and turned his head to look at Hu Li in disbelief.

However, after Hu Li fired the gun, she turned around and left without looking back.

"Stop!"

Everyone was obviously not prepared for Hu Li's sudden shooting. Instead, Carter was the first to react. He was a policeman in Luojishan, so he naturally wanted to catch the murderer, so he chased after him.

"Get rid of them!" Hu Li also discovered Carter's pursuit, so she left a word and ran away.

"Ricky Anke, what happened to you?"

When Chen Jiaju saw that Tan Ruiqi was shot, he was obviously a little surprised. He hesitated for a moment, and before Tan Ruiqi fell, he still reached out to support him.

"Kaju. Go. Leave America. This matter is not something you can do."

Tan Ruiqi lay in Chen Jiaju's arms and spoke intermittently. When he spoke, blood kept flowing up from his throat.

But in the end, before he could finish his words, his eyes lost their luster and he died in Chen Jiaju's arms.

"Anke, Ricky Anke, wake up, wake up!"

Before Tan Ruiqi died, Chen Jiaju actually regarded Tan Ruiqi as an enemy in his heart, so he never treated him well after meeting him.

But now that he saw that Tan Ruiqi was dead, he was inexplicably sad.

In any case, for him who became an orphan early, there were not many relatives around him. Tan Ruiqi was quite good to him when he was a child.

"He's really dead. Are you sure he's Tan Ruiqi himself?"

Zhang Pin also came over at this time. He touched Tan Ruiqi's neck and confirmed that his heart had stopped beating. He also curiously pulled open his clothes and took a look. He confirmed that the bullet had indeed penetrated his heart, and the blood had not stopped flowing out at this moment.

But seeing this scene, Sir Zhang felt something was wrong again.

"Drive them out?"

Just as Zhang Pin and Chen Jiaju surrounded Tan Ruiqi's body, they were also surrounded by Tan Ruiqi's original men.

However, because of the death of their boss, these men obviously didn't know what to do with the two for a while.

Although Hu Li asked them to get rid of Chen Jiaju and others before escaping, although everyone was in the same society, the relationship was not that close.

So these people were obviously unsure of how to treat them.

"The Investigation Bureau is handling the case. Who of you can help call an ambulance?"

After confirming that Tan Ruiqi was dead, Sir Zhang naturally didn't want to continue playing, so he directly took out his Investigation Bureau consultant certificate.

"Run!"

The next second, the thugs who had surrounded them instantly turned into birds and beasts and scattered.

After all, they were just a group of gangsters.

Now that they heard Zhang Pin's identity as the Investigation Bureau, it was not like a mouse meeting a cat.

"Ah--"

At this time, as the thugs ran away, the entire bathing city was instantly in chaos.

As an industry run by a community, the staff here are naturally immune to fighting and other things on weekdays, even if they heard the gunshots at the first time, they didn't do anything.

But the confidence of these staff members naturally relies on so many thugs in the VIP room.

Now that the thugs suddenly chose to run away, without their protection, the remaining staff members immediately panicked.

"Don't run, the Investigation Bureau is handling the case, don't worry, it has nothing to do with you."

Zhang Pin saw that the bathing city was about to be in chaos, so he could only stand up and stop these people loudly.

Then he looked at Qiqi who had just come up with a fruit plate: "Go and find your manager."

"Oh, oh, okay, okay."

Qiqi had not come up when Hu Li shot and killed people, but came when Zhang Sir announced his identity as an investigation bureau.

Because she had communicated with Zhang Pin before, Qiqi actually had a general idea of ​​the current situation. In addition, the nature of her work was different, so she was not worried about being affected, so she did not run away with others.

After hearing Zhang Pin's arrangement, she became excited after being flustered.

Then she followed Zhang Pin's arrangement and went upstairs to find the manager.

Although Tan Ruiqi was the owner of the bath city, it was obviously impossible for the other party to be here all the time. Naturally, there were other managers in the bath city.

"Sir, may I ask if there is anything I can do for you? We know Investigator James from the Investigation Bureau."

After the manager came, he was not as afraid of Zhang Pin as others. On the contrary, the other party even vaguely mentioned his background.

This bath city is the best store in this business in Chinatown. It is not surprising that it has connections in the investigation bureau to make such a big business.

"You know someone, right? Well, now let this investigator you know come over and tell him that someone died here and there was a shooting. I will also call the police station to come over. Do you want to suspend business and rectify it?"

Sir Zhang is not unfamiliar with the manager of the bath city. In fact, those who can reach the management level in this business are all very skilled.

In fact, if you don't have some skills, you can't stand firm in such a place.

After all, the bath city is prone to all kinds of troubles due to its special nature.

However, no matter how tough the other party is, for Zhang Sir, he happens to be the best at dealing with such guys.

After all, the criminals he deals with on weekdays happen to be tougher than tough.

No, the manager's face changed immediately after hearing Zhang Sir's threat.

"As a manager, you are so calm about this matter today. Could it be that you have known some inside story for a long time? It seems that you must take all of you back for a good interrogation."

Zhang Sir first threatened the manager to close the bath city for rectification, which directly cut off the other party's financial path.

Of course, because the other party is just a manager who is paid, and at most there are a few points of dividends, Zhang Sir's move may be a deterrent to the other party, but the actual damage is not great.

This move is actually mainly aimed at the boss behind the bath city. After all, this bath city is a cash flow hen that lays golden eggs for the boss behind the scenes.

The next move, taking all the people back for interrogation, is the real killing move for the manager and other staff.

Although Hu Li appeared too suddenly before, and ran away without stopping after killing.

But Zhang Sir is also very familiar with this kind of thing.

In any case, Tan Ruiqi is the nominal boss of the bath city.

From the fact that Tan Ruiqi almost scolded Hu Li before, both parties are obviously from the same society, and there is a high probability that Hu Li was brought out by Tan Ruiqi.

From the fact that Hu Li was able to decisively shoot and kill Tan Ruiqi, it can be seen that the other party’s action was definitely not a temporary impulse, and it is very likely that it was planned for a long time.

As for the reason, Zhang Pin naturally guessed that it was probably because of the murder of two US Secret Service agents.

After all, although many internal institutions in America always treat their own people as people, when they encounter others attacking themselves, their revenge is never in vain.

Since it is a planned killing to silence people, and it is still inside the bath city, then as the manager of the bath city, the other party is definitely an insider.

After all, no matter what, a person died here, and in front of so many people. If the manager didn't cooperate afterwards, it would obviously be impossible to cover it up.

So when Zhang Sir said this, the manager, who didn't care at first, immediately changed his face.

"This boss, are you kidding? I am the manager here. How could I let someone kill someone in our store? I heard about what happened just now. The dead person is still my boss. The person who killed him is his subordinate. They may have some personal reasons and have nothing to do with our store."

The manager was anxious when he heard that Zhang Pin wanted to find the police to arrest them all.

Then he took the initiative to reveal the inside story of the assassination to Zhang Sir.

Of course, what this guy said could not be the truth.

But Zhang Sir is not interested in finding out the truth of the murder now.

Tan Ruiqi himself is a member of the society. For a gangster like him, being shot and killed no matter where he is is not a surprising thing.

It can be said that the fate of this line of work is to be killed by someone.

If we really want to investigate the death of such a scumbag, it would be a waste of the police's manpower and resources.

However, Sir Zhang didn't want to care too much about Tan Ruiqi's death, but the case they are dealing with now can't be left alone.

Originally, Tan Ruiqi was their target, because they needed to get clues from Tan Ruiqi about the counterfeit case that the Secret Service agents were tracking.

But now that Tan Ruiqi is dead, although Sir Zhang has opened a cheat, it is impossible to get the news from private mouths.

In this case, this clue needs to be obtained from other insiders.

"Tell me, who is the real boss behind your store?"

Zhang Pin stared at the manager and asked directly.

From the fact that the manager panicked when he heard that he was going to take all the people back for interrogation, the other party must be one of the insiders.

Not to mention that Sir Zhang thought that the daily cash flow of a bath city like this is definitely a huge number.

And because of the nature of the business, most customers who come to consume will not choose direct bank transfers, but will choose cash mode instead.

In this way, it is a very suitable place for money laundering.

Since Tan Ruiqi is the boss of this store and happens to be related to the counterfeit money case, will the other party use this store to launder money?

With Zhang Sir's understanding of criminals, this is a matter of course.

The nature of the bath city itself is a place where filth and dirt are hidden. The guests here usually come here to feel proud. As long as they are satisfied, these people will not come back to make trouble even if they receive counterfeit money, as long as it is not much, and will only suffer this loss in silence.

Even as long as the quality of the technicians here is high enough, they will continue to consume next time.

Of course, this kind of thing cannot be foolproof. As long as things are done for a long time, sooner or later you will encounter some serious customers.

At this time, the manager naturally needs to come forward to settle it.

So Zhang Pin knew that although Tan Ruiqi was dead, the manager must be one of the insiders.

"What are you talking about? The owner of this store is Tan Ruiqi. There is no boss behind the scenes."

Of course, it is impossible for the manager to confess everything just because of Sir Zhang's words. On the contrary, judging from his appearance, he is obviously a tough-talking guy.

"Very good. I like your personality and I hope you can keep it up. When you get to the interrogation room of the Investigation Bureau, you'd better be so tough so that the colleagues in charge of the interrogation can have room to show their abilities."

Naturally, Sir Zhang had enough expectations for the manager's harsh words.

The reason why he went straight to the confessional and asked the manager direct questions was actually more to evaluate whether the other party was a true insider.

After all, these things are all Zhang Sir's own guesses. Maybe the boss behind the scenes deliberately found a professional manager in the bathing city for safety and convenience.

If the manager of this bathing city is also a professional manager and does not know the inside story of money laundering, then if he takes the person back, not only will he not be able to get a confession, but he will be able to give him the truth.

But now seeing the manager's reaction, Sir Zhang can guess that whether the manager knows about money laundering or not, at least he himself is not clean.

In this case, it is enough for Sir Zhang.

So he didn't continue talking to the other party, but was ready to call someone.

Then he turned around and looked: "Why hasn't Carter come back yet?"

Sir Zhang suddenly discovered that Carter, who had chased Hu Li out before, had not come back yet, so he looked at Chen Jiaju and motioned for him to go out and take a look.

"Catch them all."

At this moment, the manager, who had turned pale after being spoken to by Zhang Pin, suddenly shouted to some thugs who had not yet left.

"You are so courageous, you actually dare to take action against people from the Investigation Bureau."

Zhang Pin looked a little surprised when he heard the manager's words.

You know, the Bureau of Investigation, as America's law enforcement agency, has always been the only one who bullies people, but no one dares to mess with them.

Except for a very small number of desperadoes, normal people, even local gangsters, tend to avoid people from the Bureau of Investigation.

As a low-level manager, this manager dared to give such an order to his subordinates. Sir Zhang did not expect this at all.

However, in this way, Sir Zhang became more certain that there must be a big problem with this manager.

After all, if the other party is really innocent, attacking people from the Investigation Bureau now is simply asking for death.

Unless the other party knows that if he is caught, he will definitely be dead. Now he is breaking the pot, so this is considered normal.

"Do it, I'll be responsible if something happens."

The manager's face was full of madness, and he was completely unswayed by Sir Zhang's reminder.

"ah--"

In this case, one of the thugs was actually persuaded. He shouted directly and then rushed towards Chen Jiaju who was about to go outside to see the situation.

The battle begins immediately.
