Riverside police

It was late at night, and the conference room of Changhang Branch was brightly lit.

Mr. Niu and Interpol Lao Zhao from the Hanwu Branch did not go to the hotel to rest. They were sitting around the conference table, studying and analyzing the case, and waiting for news from the "front line."

During the day, all members of the branch were mobilized.

At night, only a dozen policemen were left conducting investigations outside.

After all, the police are humans, not gods, and they are not made of iron. No one can bear it without rest.

Dong Xiangyun, the political commissar of the branch, slept for a while on the way back and was not very sleepy now. He lit a cigarette and introduced the situation in the Wenfeng area to Mr. Niu and Zhao Yongming, the old investigator from the Hanwu Branch.

"South Street is the city center of Binjiang. There are several large shopping malls and a large clothing market. It is the busiest place in Binjiang. There are many small restaurants around several large shopping malls. It is normal for the victim to eat a bowl of noodles after shopping. I used to I went shopping with my wife to the mall, and also had dinner on the street behind Wenfeng."

"Old Dong, can you confirm that Xianyu's cousin, sister-in-law and noodle shop owner's wife saw the woman yesterday afternoon as the victim?"

"confirming."

"How to confirm?"

"Xianyu took his cousin, sister-in-law and noodle shop owner's wife to the funeral home to identify the body. There should be news soon."

It's horrifying to think about taking someone to a funeral parlor to identify the body in the middle of the night.

Mr. Niu was secretly thinking that Xianyu's cousin and younger siblings might not be able to sleep well tonight. Zhao Yongming suddenly asked: "Commissar Dong, there should be CCTV surveillance in big shopping malls. Have you arranged for someone to go to several big shopping malls to check the surveillance?" Record?"

"It's been arranged. Comrades from the Public Security Detachment are monitoring the situation overnight with the assistance of the South Street Police Station."

"What about the clue that the victim had treated for tooth decay and had his teeth cleaned?"

"I am responsible for investigating this line. I have visited all the places in the city where I can inquire, but there should be many quack dentists that we don't know about and have no grasp of. It's not that easy to find those quack dentists with our own strength alone. It’s easy. We can only ask local colleagues for assistance.” Political Commissar Dong knocked the ashes and added: “Now the scope of the investigation has been expanded, and several district and county public security bureaus are helping with the investigation.”

At this time, Bureau Qi returned from arranging tasks for the police officers who were resting downstairs.

He looked at his watch and suggested: "Mr. Niu, Lao Zhao, it's getting late. I'll take you to the hotel to rest. Solving the case is something that can't be rushed. It's useless to work here."

"Okay, but you don't need to take it. Just arrange a driver to take us to the hotel."

"I'd better give it away."

"Lao Qi, you are the leader of the task force, your position is here!"

"Qi Ju, I'll take Mr. Niu to the hotel. I'll just go home and take a shower on the way."

…

At 11:20 in the night, Zhang Hongmei walked out of the morgue holding her boyfriend's hand tightly.

The morgue is eerie and scary!

The woman who was fine yesterday afternoon was even more frightening. She had turned from a living person into a cold corpse. She also had a knife in her abdomen. The wound was so long that it was sewn like a long centipede, making people afraid to look directly at her. .

The noodle shop owner's wife was also frightened, hugging her husband's arm tightly and not daring to look back.

Han Yu was busy making and answering calls just now, so he didn't go in with him. He went up to him and asked, "Aidong, Hongmei, are they the people you met yesterday afternoon?"

"Yes, it should be."

"What about you, boss lady?"

The noodle shop proprietress was still frightened and said nervously: "That's her. I have an impression of her. I didn't expect such a good person to die like this."

"Is there any impression?" Han Yu asked in a low voice.

"My house has a lot of guests at noon and evening, but there are no people in the afternoon. When they went to eat noodles yesterday afternoon, I lay on the table and dozed off. I was still thinking about why they didn't come early and late, and they had to rush in when we were resting. Come."

"anything else?"

"The woman was easy to talk to. She asked me what kind of noodles I had and what to eat. The young man who went with her insisted on eating big noodles. The big braised ribs in the morning were all sold out at noon. After some hard work, he agreed to eat big meat noodles."

"What does the man look like? Does he have any impressive features?"

"A very ordinary young man. I can't really tell what he looks like, but judging by his accent, he should be from the same hometown as us."

"He speaks with a Gaoru accent?"

"Well, the accent is similar to ours in Jiuhua."

As soon as the lady boss finished speaking, the boss suddenly remembered a detail: "Director Han, that young man has a BP machine, a big screen BP machine with a Chinese display like Motorola's."

Han Yu asked: "Did you see it?"

"I saw it. He was eating noodles and looking at the BP machine at the same time."

"Did he interact with women while eating noodles?"

"Not much. That woman seemed thoughtful. She sat there with her head buried in the noodles and didn't talk much."

"Did the woman have a bag with her at the time?"

"There seems to be a bag, black."

Just as he was asking, Li Guangrong suddenly called.

Han Yu motioned to the driver to drive and held up his cell phone to answer the call.

"Han Bureau, I thought it would be easy to check there are many cameras in the city. But after I came here, I realized that not many can actually save the surveillance records. After watching it for more than an hour, I only found two videos, which added up to less than two videos. minute."

"Did you see the victim and the man?"

"I can only say that it matches the characteristics. I need your cousin and younger siblings to confirm whether it is."

"We'll be there right away."

In the middle of the night, they were first taken to the funeral home morgue to identify the body, and then they were taken to the traffic control center to watch the surveillance camera.

It's easy to talk to the little cousin and his girlfriend, after all, they are relatives. Facing the owner and wife of the small noodle shop, Han Yu was really a little embarrassed.

After saying some kind words to someone, I rushed to the traffic police detachment at 12 o'clock in the night.

As Li Guangrong said on the phone before, the two surveillance videos were very short. Xiang Aidong confirmed after looking at it: "Brother-in-law, that's him, that's the motorcycle!"

This video was captured by a camera at the intersection of South Street and Renmin Road. A young man wearing a helmet, riding a Qianjiang 125 motorcycle, carrying the victim, turned left at the intersection and headed towards Renmin West Road. From Looking at the direction, it is consistent with the direction in which the victim's body was thrown after he was killed.

Han Yu was about to ask the traffic police to take it back, but the traffic police said apologetically: "Han Bureau, the camera that captured this video is not high-definition, and the license plate on the front of the motorcycle is installed vertically. Only people and cars can be seen." Not even a license plate.”

"There are many traffic lights on Renmin Road, and each traffic light has a camera. Didn't the cameras in other places capture it?"

"Most of the cameras we have here are used to capture traffic violations, not those who are not speeding or running red lights."

"There is a radar. If the radar detects an evacuation violation, it triggers the camera to take pictures?"

"almost."

It took a lot of effort to make a major discovery, but after searching for clues, the clues were broken again.

The only thing I learned is that yesterday afternoon, the victim went to Nanjie Street with a man in his twenties, who was of medium build and very ordinary appearance. He was so ordinary that it was hard to impress anyone. noodle.

Han Yu thanked the comrades of the traffic police detachment, walked out of the building and asked Lao Ding to see his cousin, his sister-in-law, the noodle shop owner and his wife back first. Then he turned back and said: "Bureau Li, the mall is still adjusting the surveillance, how about we split up?" After work, you go to the mall and keep an eye on it, and I'll go to Gaoru overnight."

"Going to Gaoru?"

"Our place is different from Hanwu. There are many dialects here, and there are several in one county." Han Yu took a deep breath and explained: "Although we don't know what the man looks like, we can be sure from his accent. He is from a few towns in Gaoru, plus he owns a Qianjiang 125 motorcycle and a Motorola Chinese pager, so it shouldn't be difficult to find him."

There are many dialects spoken in Binjiang.

Li Guangrong came to his senses, thought about it and asked again: "It's so late, who can I go to now? Are you familiar with the leaders of the Gaoru Public Security Bureau?"

"Bureau Peng of the Gaoru Public Security Bureau is my old boss. He used to be the director of the Shuishui Branch. Besides, this is a murder case. Even if there is no connection, they will give their full assistance."

"Okay, you take bus No. 3."

…

At 8:30 in the morning, Mr. Niu and Lao Zhao finished breakfast at the hotel and were about to call the bureau when the director of the branch office rushed to the hotel to pick them up.

The two hurried to the branch office and walked into the conference room, only to see the whole department answering the phone.

"Great, you guys can go over there right now. Do you want to arrange a few people to help? Okay, okay, I'll let Xiaoyu take a few people there!"

"Lao Qi, you mean Liang Xiaoyu?" Mr. Niu asked curiously.

Xiaoyu is only a formal police officer in name only in Binjiang Branch, but his reputation in Hanwu is not small. When he was first transferred to the Changhang Police Academy, he participated in a water raid organized by the Criminal Investigation Corps. Later, he "rescued" the leaders and trainees of the Changhang Police Academy during flood rescue operations.

The investigation work finally made a breakthrough. Everyone in the bureau was in high spirits at the happy event and couldn't help but smile: "He is Xiaoyu. He has the best military quality in the bureau. It is most suitable for him to lead the team to support Xianyu and participate in the capture."

"Arrest?"

"The man's identity is clear!"

Bureau Qi signaled Ding Shuguang, Director of the Political Department, to give orders to Xiaoyu, while handing over a newly made phone record: "Xianyu rushed to Gaoru overnight to ask for help from local colleagues based on the clues provided by the owner and the wife of the small noodle shop. Gaoru For example, the director of public security is the old leader of Xianyu and Xiaoyu, and he was very helpful. He ordered several police stations to organize investigations overnight, and the identity of the man was determined five minutes ago."

"What clues did the noodle shop owner and the landlady provide?"

"That man's accent."

Qi Ju smiled and added: "The man's surname is Huo, Huo Zhaojun. He is 22 years old and lives in Group 6, Qianjin Village, Jiuhua Township, Gaoru City. He has a Chinese technical education and graduated from Gaoru City Technical School. He studied Maintenance electrician, now working in an electronics factory in Changjiang Town, Gaoru. The motorcycle I bought in June last year and the Motorola pager were second-hand goods I bought not long ago."

Mr. Niu asked in surprise: "You were able to find out in such a short time just based on your accent?"

"It's mainly local colleagues who help." Bureau Qi smiled slightly and continued: "Xianyu suspects that the victim also works and lives in Changjiang Town. Jiang Youwei is on his way to Changjiang Town. If everything goes well, he will be able to get there before 12 noon at the latest. The truth comes out.”
