Chapter 69: Don’t Move! Put Your Hands Up!

January 1959, 1, Chinese New Year’s Eve.

On a winter night, heavy snow falls, as if the whole world is covered with white snow.

In the duty room of the Security Department of Red Star Factory.

In order to maintain safety in the factory during the holidays, Liu Zhiye pulled out several elites from the security department and asked them to work overtime on New Year's Eve.

Having just finished eating wild boar meat dumplings, seven or eight people gathered around the stove, chatting animatedly about new things.

Liu Zhiye winked at Sun Li, Zhou Weiguo and others, saying that he had something to talk to them about outside.

Except for Zhou Weiguo, the other three were confused and didn't understand why the section chief had to go outside to talk about it.

Liu Zhiye led his men to the empty corridor and asked them to come closer to him. Then he began to speak: "This is what happened..."

These people finally understood why Section Chief Liu, contrary to his usual behavior, asked them to work overtime during the Little New Year.

When they returned to the duty room, before they could even have a cup of tea, the phone on the desk rang urgently.

"Ding-ling-ling! Ding-ling-ling! Ding-ling-ling..."

Liu Zhiye didn't wait for others to react, he stepped forward and answered the phone.

"Hello! It's me!"

"Director Yu! Good!"

"Yes! I understand! Yes..."

After he put down the phone, he turned around and looked at everyone with cold eyes.

He gave an order, "We have received an order to carry out a certain mission from the Security Department. To save time, we can discuss the specific mission on the way."

"Zhou Weiguo! Go drive a truck over here."

Zhou Weiguoli shouted "Here we are", then rushed to drive the car.

Ten minutes later, several people from the Security Department of the Red Star Factory drove a large Liberation truck and rushed to the Dongcheng District Branch in the heavy snow.

Li Xiangyang, chief of the second section of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Bureau, had been waiting here for a long time.

Seeing that the security department had arrived, he invited Liu Zhiye to get on a jeep.

The jeep led the way, and several Liberation vehicles followed behind, driving out of the compound.

On the way, Section Chief Li and Liu Zhiye exchanged a few brief greetings and then began to discuss the case.

"Chief Li! The specific situation is as follows..."

"Chief Liu! We have already understood what you said. Do you have anything else to add?"

Liu Zhiye closed his eyes and thought for a while, then shook his head. What he meant was that there was nothing to add.

Section Chief Li said, "Okay! Let's talk about the specific action plan..."

Liu Zhiye's experience in handling cases was not as rich as Section Chief Li's, so in this operation, Section Chief Li was the main person in charge, and he was the assistant.

About 30 minutes later, we arrived at the Xinjiekou Police Station in XC District.

After receiving the order, Director Wang has been waiting here for a long time.

Liu Zhiye and the other person got out of the car and briefly explained the situation to Director Wang, and they also got to know each other.

Section Chief Li saw that it was getting late and needed to take action immediately.

Then he ordered everyone to get off the car. More than 20 people, led by Director Wang, walked quietly to Baoyu Hutong, Xinjiekou.

They arrived at a place in Baoyu Hutong, around a courtyard with an excellent location, and began to arrange the tasks.

Section Chief Li said in a low voice: "Director Wang, take a few people to the alley behind the courtyard..."

"Old Zheng! Go west..."

"Deputy Section Chief Sun! Go to the east..."

"Section Chief Liu and I will touch it from the front..."

"Comrades are requested to try their best not to cause any noise..."

Director Wang: “Understood!”

Lao Zheng: "Yes! Section Chief!"

Sun Li: "Yes! Chief Li!"

Liu Zhiye also nodded in response.

After seeing this, Section Chief Li said in a deep voice: "Check the watch! The time is now 9:45. The action will begin in three minutes."

After Director Wang and his colleagues confirmed the time, they led them to the preset location.

The action started three minutes later, and Liu Zhiye nodded to Section Chief Li first.

He didn't need a ladder. He jogged a little, took a small step up from the wall, and pushed his feet diagonally down toward the wall, and his body flew into the air. Then he used his hands to grab the top of the wall, and then pulled his body upwards with force, and climbed up the wall.

Liu Zhiye squatted on the wall and observed the situation motionlessly. Seeing that there was no movement or light in the room, he guessed that the group of people might have gone to bed. After he saw that there was nothing going on, he quietly climbed down the wall.

The gate of the yard was opened from the inside, and Section Chief Li and others walked in one after another, holding a pistol in one hand and a flashlight in the other.

Then Liu Zhiye also took out the "Big Black Star", loaded it with a "click", and then ran towards the main house first.

The people who followed divided into two groups and rushed towards the east and west wing rooms.

They tried to walk as lightly as possible because there was snow on the ground, and walking on the snow made a "crunching, crunching" sound.

Liu Zhiye walked lightly, like a cat walking, without making any sound, and tiptoed to the front door of the house.

He did not rush to open the door, but made a gesture to everyone, meaning that they should be patient and wait for his instructions.

Then, he listened through the crack in the door to see what was happening inside.

After hearing no movement in the house, he pulled out a military dagger and gently turned the door latch.

After the door was fully opened, he waved his hand to signal action, and his comrades rushed in from three rooms at the same time.

Liu Zhiye ran to the bedroom in the dark and kicked the door open. He turned on the flashlight and rushed in.

The person inside was sleeping soundly on the kang.

After hearing the noise, an older man was frightened and immediately got up and shouted.

"who!"

As he shouted, he quickly reached out to touch the gun.

Then, he was illuminated by the strong light of the flashlight, and he felt a flash of white light in front of his eyes for an instant. The irritation made his eyes feel very uncomfortable, and he subconsciously covered his eyes with his hands.

At this time, Liu Zhiye took a step forward, exerted a little force with his hands, and pulled him off the kang.

This guy tried to struggle and resist, but then nothing happened! A cold gun was pressed against the back of his head.

"Don't move!"

There was actually another person on the kang. She was sleeping so soundly that she heard some noises and thought she was dreaming.

At this moment, she was completely awakened by Liu Zhiye's loud shout.

When she woke up and saw this scene, her first reaction was: "Ah!"

A scream.

The female criminal investigation team member who followed in was held down!
At the same time, from other rooms, there were bursts of sounds of arresting and scolding.

"Don't move! Put your hands up!"

"Shut up! Put your head in your hands!"

"Get up and get dressed!"

"Did you hear me? I told you to squat down!"

"..."

It was not until Section Chief Li turned on the light that the scene in the room came into full view.

The man being held down by Liu Zhiye was the main culprit they wanted to arrest - Lao Ge.

The old man finally came to his senses. When he saw that the people who came to arrest him were police officers, he knew that they were in trouble.

His face suddenly turned gray, and he was handcuffed by the investigators in a dejected manner and taken to the side to squat.

Afterwards, the team members came to report the results of the night's arrests. All the members of the Lao Ge gang involved in the case were caught.

The arrest operation tonight went unusually smoothly, without any incidents.

The reason why the arrest mission was completed so smoothly was nothing more than careful planning, and also because these people were caught off guard.

They didn't expect that on New Year's Eve, these policemen would not go home to celebrate the festival, but would choose to raid them.

Only then did Liu Zhiye feel relieved of the heavy burden in his heart and began to look around the arrest scene.

Wow! These two are having so much fun!

A middle-aged man and a young girl in her 20s, both of them were sleeping on the same kang, both of them were naked. Now they were both pressed down at the same time, and you can imagine what happened.

Looking at the woman's seductive look, you can tell the identity of this woman. Isn't she the heroine in the Guan Dapeng incident?
She was wrapped in a quilt, crying quietly with her head down. Old Ge, who was squatting on the ground, was barefoot and shivering from the cold.

Seeing this, Liu Zhiye asked them to put on their clothes and then walked out of the bedroom.

In the living room of the main house, Section Chief Li arranged everyone's tasks in an orderly manner.

"Director Wang! After we take these people away, you have to arrange for someone to stay behind..."

"Officer Wei! Take your men to search this yard carefully. Don't miss any suspicious places..."

"..."
