Mystery Tracker 2

Chapter 24 Disconnection

Because Shen Yan had talked with the people from the Chengnan District Bureau on the phone before they came, so when they arrived, Captain Wang of the Chengnan District Criminal Investigation Brigade had already led people to make preparations.After Shen Yan and others arrived, the two parties greeted each other and went straight to the point.Captain Wang said: "The area you mentioned is under the jurisdiction of the Dongyuan Police Station. There is a wholesale market there, and the population is very mobile. Most of the nearby communities are old communities that have been built for many years, and there is no surveillance. There are video recordings and no property security, so it is very difficult to check."

"We are also aware of this situation, but our existing evidence points there. No matter how difficult it is, we must investigate." Shen Yan said, "So I want to ask Captain Wang, you know more about that area than I do. , is there any good suggestion that can help us narrow down the scope?"

Captain Wang thought for a while, then frowned and said, "To be honest, although the area is relatively chaotic, there have been some cases before, but most of them were absconded by the logistics of the cargo terminal, or because of the competition between the vendors. I have never heard of traffickers in that area... Otherwise, I will ask our team to find a few people who are often active in that area and ask them if they have heard of it Have there been any suspicious people from outside recently? As for your investigation, you can do whatever you want, I have called the Dongyuan Police Station, and they will fully cooperate with you."

"Okay, I'll trouble you then, Captain Wang."

Therefore, under the arrangement of Captain Wang, the investigation of the suspect started quickly.Deputy Captain Zhang of the Criminal Investigation Brigade in Chengnan District took several of his team members, Shen Yan and others, and the police from Dongyuan Police Station to the relevant area immediately to investigate the area.More than 10 individuals acted separately, and everyone took photos of the two suspects and the baby, and searched in neighborhood committees, residential areas, and supermarkets that sell baby items and food.Everyone was busy from noon to night, asking almost all places in this area, but no trace of the suspect was found.By the time they returned to Dongyuan Police Station for assembly at 30:[-], everyone was exhausted.Seeing that everyone was so tired, Shen Yan and Deputy Captain Zhang hurriedly sent everyone home to rest, recharge their energy, and wait until tomorrow morning to continue.

When Cheng Haiyang returned home, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening. When he opened the door, the room was dark, and his parents seemed to have fallen asleep.Cheng Haiyang walked into the house lightly, and just turned around to close the door when he heard the door open from his parents' room.

"Are you back?" Cheng's mother came out of the house with half-closed eyes.

"Well," Cheng Haiyang nodded, "Mom, did I wake you up?"

"I didn't sleep well at first. Have you eaten yet?"

"No, I went out to investigate the case this afternoon, and have been tossing until now." Cheng Haiyang asked: "Is there any food left at home?"

"There are dumplings in the refrigerator, I'll make them for you right now."

"Well, a few more, I'm starving to death." Cheng Haiyang took off his clothes and said, "Mom, I'm going to take a shower."

"Go ahead, just throw the changed clothes there, and I will wash them for you tomorrow."

"Eh."

Cheng Haiyang walked into the bathroom and took a comfortable hot shower—he was really sweating after running outside all afternoon today.Now take a shower and feel comfortable.Cheng Haiyang threw the changed clothes into the washing machine, and walked out of the bathroom refreshed.

At this moment, Mama Cheng had already cooked the dumplings. Seeing Cheng Haiyang coming out, Mama Cheng greeted her, "The dumplings are ready, hurry up and eat them while they are hot."

"Hey!" Cheng Haiyang sprinted over and walked to the dining table. The dumplings had already been set, and the fat and white dumplings exuded a tempting aroma.Cheng Haiyang didn't care about anything else, picked up the chopsticks and put one in his mouth.

"Ah!" Although the heat on the outside of the dumpling has come down, the inside is still very hot, and Cheng Haiyang was so hot that he gasped, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."

"Slow down, no one will grab you." Cheng's mother hurried over, put down the soy sauce and chili oil in her hand, and said angrily, "You child, why are you always in such a hurry to eat?"

"Mom, you don't know, we ran out for a day today...I ate a piece of bread for lunch, and then...it's been up to this point, I'm starving to death..." Cheng Haiyang slurred his speech while wolfing down explain to mother.

"What case are you investigating?"

"A child was stolen from the Municipal Maternal and Infant Hospital."

"Stealing a child?!" Cheng's mother was astonished, "The current human traffickers are so daring, they have stolen it to the hospital?"

"No, we found out from the surveillance video that the two suspects finally went to the Chengnan Wholesale Market, so we went there to investigate in the afternoon, but we didn't find anyone after asking."

"Then what should we do?" Mother Cheng asked.

"I guess we have to keep looking. But the boss said that the longer this kind of thing is delayed, the less likely the child will find it."

"Oh," Cheng's mother sighed upon hearing this. "The child's mother doesn't know what it's like to be sad..."

Hearing this sentence, Cheng Haiyang put down his chopsticks, looked at his mother and said, "Mom, I remember I got lost once when I was young, right?"

Hearing this, Mother Cheng was startled for a moment, and then laughed. She looked sideways at her son and said, "Yo, do you still remember?"

"Can you not remember?! I remember being beaten by my dad the night I went home, and my butt was swollen."

"Can you do it without beating you?! At that time, your father and I told you so many times that you must not leave the school gate after school, and you must wait for us to pick you up. It turns out that you are lucky. If you don't listen to us, forget it. How dare you Follow strangers! Do you know that you were almost kidnapped?!"

"Oh, it's not Zhao Fat'er's fault! He said he knew the uncle who opened the toy pistol shop, and he said that he would take us there and send us back soon. I was worried about him and followed him." Recalling Cheng Haiyang also became interested when he recalled an anecdote from his childhood, "As a result, the man led us farther and farther, and we both felt that it was wrong at the time, but the man said nothing and refused to let us go. In the end, I reacted quickly. I saw a police station in front of me at a glance, and then when I got to the door, I yelled loudly and called out all the policemen inside. The man didn't look good, so he let go and ran away. The police even praised me for being smart Woolen cloth!"

"You are so clever! Do you know how dangerous you two were at that time?"

"I really didn't expect it at the time! By the way, I heard from my dad that later the police said that those two seemed to be human traffickers..."

"Anyway, the police never found that person again, and there is no such a toy gun shop in the place he mentioned." After Cheng's mother finished speaking, she turned around and said with half blame and half sigh: "If you were really kidnapped at that time If I leave, I won't be able to live..."

"Oh my mother! What are you talking about?!" Seeing his mother thinking about the past, Cheng Haiyang immediately rushed over and shook her mother's shoulder to act like a spoiled child. "Look at your son, I'm fine!"

"Yeah." Mother Cheng was shaken back and forth by her son, with a doting smile on her face.

Cheng Haiyang acted coquettishly for a while, and then stopped when he saw his mother smiling, and said to his mother, "Mom, it's getting late, you should go to bed quickly!"

"Yeah." Mother Cheng seemed a little sleepy too. She got up and took two steps towards the room, then turned around and told, "You don't need to clean up after eating, just put your things in the sink and soak them in the sink. Go to bed early after eating." .”

"Okay." Cheng Haiyang nodded.

Mother Cheng nodded and walked to her room.Cheng Haiyang sat there looking at his mother's back, but his mind was full of thoughts.He clearly remembered that when the police uncle was about to send him home, his parents were in the yard downstairs, with their frantic expressions.Seeing him appear, his mother rushed to him with disheveled hair, grabbed him into her arms and cried bitterly, while his father rushed over and wanted to slap him, and the people around couldn't help him.Cheng Haiyang clearly remembered the words his father yelled at that time: "I must let him remember! If something like this happens to him, it will kill both of us!..."

At that time, Xiao Cheng Haiyang was full of grievances, and he didn't know what kind of sadness was hidden under the over-excited appearance of his parents.

Before I knew it, many years had passed, and my mother's black and shiny hair had become today's strands of silver.Cheng Haiyang looked at his mother's inflexible back, and a slightly sour feeling suddenly surged up.

After eating, he didn't just soak the tableware as his mother said, but washed them out quickly.After everything was cleaned up, Cheng Haiyang smiled with satisfaction, and walked to his room.

The next day, the investigation of the suspect's activity area continued.This time, the police further expanded the scope of the investigation. In addition to those places yesterday, they also included areas with a lot of people - vegetable markets, restaurants, convenience stores, etc. - in the scope of the search.At the same time, Captain Wang is also using some of their informants to investigate new strangers who appeared in this area during this period... Time passed by, and by noon, the second round of investigation was basically completed, but the suspect was still missing. nothing.Seeing that more than 30 hours had passed since the baby was abducted, and the possibility of the suspect remaining here became less and less, Shen Yan decisively ordered all members of the serious crime team to return to the team and re-discuss the detection plan.

1:30 p.m., Office of the Major Crimes Squad.

"...Okay, don't worry, we will definitely tell you if we find something here...Don't cry, crying now can't solve the problem, we will definitely do our best to help you find it...Okay, I'm still here Something to do, hang up first."

Gong Peng on the other end of the phone chattered for a long time, and finally hung up.Shen Yan put down the phone and couldn't help but let out a long breath.Cheng Jinsong, who had been sitting aside and waiting for a long time, asked, "Or the child's parents?"

"Well, the child's father." Shen Yan said, "I have called me many times since yesterday afternoon, asking if we have found the child and what clues we have... I have told him that we have found I will tell him, but he still keeps calling and asking. You said if this person had the heart, why didn’t he remember to lock the door? If they were more careful at the time, the child would not be lost at all. How could they As for being in such a hurry now?..."

Shen Yan's words were purely whining, he would never say these things to others, and only to Cheng Jinsong would he express his truest thoughts without any scruples.Cheng Jinsong naturally understood, so he smiled and comforted: "Okay, if everyone can do what you said, we can both be laid off and unemployed. Just think so, we are not working so hard for him, but For children."

When the child was mentioned, Shen Yan's expression turned worried again. "It has been 35 hours. If it is really a human trafficker, I am worried that the child has really left the province."

"Not necessarily." At this point, Cheng Jinsong put away his smile, and his expression became serious, "I came here to tell you about this matter, I always feel that this case may not be as simple as we thought... "
