After obtaining the portrait of the Hammer Madman, Han Cheng issued an urgent investigation notice to the police stations across the Dragon Kingdom.
At the same time, the electronic version of the investigation pass issued to him by the Longguo Criminal Police Headquarters was also sent to the heads of local police stations.
After the heads of police stations in various places learned about Han Cheng's identity, they did not dare to neglect and actively cooperated with the investigation.
For a time, police from all over the country took action, posting reward notices with a portrait of the Hammer Madman on the streets, and then started investigating from house to house.
Soon, the police in Qiong City reported to Han Cheng that some people had provided them with clues, saying that there was a foreigner in the local area who was very similar to the Hammer Maniac in terms of height and appearance.
Han Cheng was so excited that he immediately rushed to Qiong City with the backlog team to meet with the local police.
The Hammer Mania is an extremely cunning and dangerous person, and he may even have guns and ammunition hidden in his possession.
In order to make the arrest operation foolproof, Han Cheng asked the local police to dispatch a large number of police and armed police to assist in the arrest operation.
According to clues provided by the public, the Hammer Mania now lives in a village in Qiong City.
The house he lives in is built on the mountainside of a mountain, and he is the only family in the entire mountain.
After Han Cheng brought a large number of police to the mountain, he first asked some people to surround the entire mountain.
Then he led a group of people to quietly approach the Hammer Maniac's residence.
However, when Han Cheng and others approached the house where the Hammer Maniac lived, they saw a middle-aged woman about forty years old and a teenage boy breaking corn in the yard, but they did not see the Hammer Maniac. .
According to people who provided clues, the man who looks like the Hammer Maniac is now named Shi Zhen. He is married to a local woman named Hou Na and has a twelve-year-old son.
Han Cheng guessed that the two people in the yard should be the wife and children of the Hammer Madman.
Han Cheng raised his right hand to signal those behind him not to move forward.
Although the two people in the yard are the wife and children of the Hammer Maniac, there is no guarantee that the Hammer Maniac will jump over the wall and take them as hostages.
Han Cheng didn't want to cause casualties in this arrest, and wanted to understand the situation inside before taking action.
"Han Shen, why don't we rush in!" Hong Xi, standing behind Han Cheng, asked in a low voice.
"Let's find out what's going on inside first! I'll go up and inquire about the situation first. You guys wait here."
Han Cheng said as he took off the heavy weapons from his body and handed them to Hong Xi.
He only had a pistol on him.
Han Cheng walked into the yard alone and said with a smile, "Sister, I am traveling around here. I passed by here and wanted to ask for a bowl of water. Isn't it convenient?"
"Convenient! Convenient! Xiaohai, go get this uncle a bowl of water!" the middle-aged woman ordered the boy beside her.
When the boy entered the house to pour water, Han Cheng looked inside the house and did not see the Hammer Maniac.
"Sister, you mother and son are the only ones at home. Where are your men?"
"He went to the city to stock up on goods! He left before dawn this morning!"
After listening to the middle-aged woman's words, Han Cheng suddenly felt that something was wrong. He felt that the hammer maniac must have noticed something and ran away!
Han Cheng hurriedly walked into the house and checked every room. Sure enough, the Hammer Mania was not in the room.
"How could you, young man, be so rude and just break into someone else's house!"
The middle-aged woman was a little unhappy when she saw Han Cheng breaking into the house and looking around without her consent.
"Is your name Hou Na?" Han Cheng asked the middle-aged woman directly.
The middle-aged woman was stunned for a moment, "How do you know my name?"
"Look, is this your husband?" Han Cheng took out the portrait of Crazy Hammer.
The middle-aged woman looked at it and said, "Yes! Who are you? Why are you looking for my husband?"
"I'll buy some mountain goods from him. You call him and ask him when he'll be back?"
The middle-aged woman picked up the phone and dialed her husband's phone number with some confusion.
However, she called several times but could not get through.
When Han Cheng saw this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. He saw that this hammer-headed maniac really ran away!
"His phone can usually get through, why can't he get through today!" The middle-aged woman was confused.
"Are you really here to buy mountain goods? I've never seen you!" The middle-aged woman became suspicious of Han Cheng.
"I'm a policeman!" Han Cheng revealed his identity directly.
At this point, he no longer had to hide it.
"Police? What do you want from my husband? My husband is a good man!"
"A good person? If he were a good person, there would be no good people in the entire Dragon Kingdom!"
Then, Han Cheng told Hou Na about the numerous crimes committed by the hammer maniac.
After hearing this, Hou Na was so shocked that she slumped on the ground with a blank look on her face, muttering to herself: "How could he be such a person! How could he be a murderous demon..."
Seeing Hou Na like this, Han Cheng knew that she wouldn't be able to accept this fact for a while.
Now if I take her back for questioning, I won't be able to find out anything.
So, he used the walkie-talkie to notify the police who were ambushing at the foot of the mountain and asked them to block the major exits in Qiong City instead.
The Hammer Maniac left in the morning, and now it is afternoon. He should have left Qiong City by this time.
Han Cheng knew that it seemed too late to block the exit at this time.
But no matter what, there was a glimmer of hope that he couldn't let go of.
The police in Qiong City blocked all major exits in Qiong City and checked for several days, but found nothing in the end.
Han Cheng could only ask them to stop their actions.
Instead, the focus of the investigation was shifted to Hou Na.
Qiong City, police station, inquiry room.
Hou Na is being questioned by Han Cheng and Yu Shan.
At this time, Hou Na's emotions had calmed down a bit, and she seemed to have accepted the fact that her husband was a heinous murderer.
But her eyes still revealed despair, hatred, pain, and helplessness.
Han Cheng asked people to investigate Hou Na and learned that she was a native of Qiong City. She was always kind to others and had a good reputation in the village.
She must have been deceived by the hypocritical mask of the hammer maniac.
So Han Cheng didn't want to embarrass her, he just asked her to tell the details of her relationship with the hammer maniac over the years.
Hou Na suddenly shed tears when she saw Han Cheng being so polite to her.
After crying for a while, she choked and said: "I always thought he was a good person... At least, I have never seen him do a bad thing in the more than ten years he has been with me!"
"But when he killed someone before, he just killed someone. This is a fact that cannot be changed. Killing must be punished with a life. What's more, he killed so many people!"
"I want to accumulate some blessings for my son! Just ask whatever you want!"
After Hou Na finished speaking, she lowered her head and said no more words.
"How did you meet him?" Han Cheng asked.
Hou Na raised her head and said slowly.
"I was in my twenties that year. One day, I was bullied by two hooligans on the way back from town. Shi Zhen happened to be passing by. He took out a hammer and scared the two hooligans away and saved me!"
"I thought he was a good person, so I took him home for a meal. After the meal, he helped my family with a lot of farm work. My parents liked him very much!"
"When I asked him where he was from and why he came to Qiong City, he said he was from the Northeast. His parents died young and his family's land was occupied by relatives. He has been wandering around since he was a child, working in various places to make a living."
"My parents saw that he had a pitiful background, so they wanted to recruit him as their son-in-law. Unexpectedly, he readily agreed. And I had a good impression of him, so I agreed to the marriage."
After saying that, Hou Na's eyes were blurred, as if she was lost in memories.
