As soon as Lu Qi answered the phone, he heard the person on the other end wailing, "I confess, I surrender. We were responsible for the gas explosion at Yu Shuqing, the Dongzhou Fengxiang Gold Store theft, and the Global Mobile Phone theft."
Although Lu Qi didn't know about the gas explosion at Yu Shuqing, hearing the latter part made him sit up straight in bed, "Where are you?"
"Weishan... Weishan Island... Da... Da Hu Recycling Company..." The voice was almost in tears.
"Is there anyone else with you?"
"No... just me... Officer, please come quickly; I've been bitten by a snake... I'm... I'm dying..."
That night, the Hu Shan Town Police Station dispatched emergency services. They found two people bitten by snakes at Da Hu Recycling Company, one of whom had been bitten in a vital spot by a cobra and was barely alive.
