Detective: From the Police Academy

Chapter 348 Ace on Poker Cards

Haijiang Branch, Criminal Investigation Brigade Office.

Du Feng sat behind his desk with haggard eyes, a pile of newly received materials beside him, and a gloomy expression on his face.

Seeing Luo Rui and Cai Xiaojing come in, he was shocked, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw: "You are finally back."

Seeing his expression, Luo Rui frowned, with a bad feeling: "Is there a big case?"

"I guess so." Du Feng walked around the desk and flicked the pile of documents in his hand with his fingers.

"Isn't it the A-level wanted warrant jointly issued by the Ministry and the provincial departments last year? There are 54 A-level wanted criminals in total, and six of them are fugitives supervised by the Ministry.

A week ago, a group of people appeared in our Guangxing City."

"A group of people?" Luo Rui asked puzzledly while sitting on the sofa. Du Feng's meaning was obvious. It was not just one or two people, but a gang?
"That's right." Du Feng sighed, walked to the back of the desk, opened the drawer, took out a deck of cards, pulled out a card and handed it to Luo Rui.

"This man is called He Tianxiang, from Sichuan Province, 38 years old this year. He used to be a gangster. Two years ago, he broke into a nightclub with a gun and killed the manager and secretary of the nightclub."

Luo Rui took a look at the playing card. It was a big ghost, or the king. The card had a photo and specific information of the fugitive printed on it. The police also solicited clues from all walks of life and offered a reward of 200,000 yuan.

He Tianxiang has a fierce look on his face, a flat head, small eyes, and sharp gaze.

"You mean He Tianxiang has gathered a gang in Guangxing City?"

"That's right." Du Feng had a headache.

"Hasn't anyone been caught yet?"

"The man was caught."

"Then why are you so worried?" Luo Rui threw the playing cards on the coffee table and added: "Did we arrest him? Or the Municipal Bureau?"

Du Feng replied, "Three days ago, Team Chen brought the city's criminal police team and our branch to arrest He Tianxiang at Sishui Bridge."

"Chen Hao?" Luo Rui opened his eyes wide. "He is really good. He is worthy of being a veteran criminal investigator. This He Tianxiang is a big ghost. It is a great honor for the Municipal Bureau to catch him."

"That's true, but I heard that the city police interrogated He Tianxiang for three days and three nights, but they couldn't find out the whereabouts of the other criminals. He was very stubborn and arrogant."

Cai Xiaojing asked, "Since he is a fugitive, the charges are proven and the arrest warrant has been issued. He Tianxiang did not run away, but dared to show up here and gather a group of accomplices. What does he want to do?"

Du Feng raised his finger and nodded: "Look, Captain Cai is still a good thinker. He asked the right question. We just don't know what this group of people want to do."

Luo Rui shrugged, picked up the photo on the coffee table again, stared at He Tianxiang's photo carefully, and asked, "Green Ghost can't make him speak?"

"Team Chen interrogated him for two days and one night, and he was almost exhausted. He Tianxiang was like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, and they just couldn't pry his mouth open.

The task of our various branches now is to find the hideout of this gang and prepare to catch them all in one fell swoop.

Moreover, when we arrested He Tianxiang, we found a pistol on him, so we can infer that this group of people were carrying guns.

Let’s put it this way, these people are a time bomb. If they commit a crime in our Guangxing City, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Now the municipal bureau and provincial department are worried about this matter, and they are holding meetings every day to discuss the pursuit plan. "

Luo Rui pondered and said, "The crime is confirmed without a doubt. He Tianxiang did not run away, but even gathered a group of people. This man is too bold.

The water and land transportation in Guangxing City are more developed than inland areas, and it is not far from the Xiangjiang River. I think this group of people must want to make some money and then escape."

Du Feng nodded: "The Municipal Bureau has set up a special task force to deal with this gang. Chen Hao and the others also think so, but the strange thing is that we investigated the crimes in the past half month and found that no banks, jewelry stores, or wealthy businessmen were robbed or kidnapped."

"How do you know there are none?" Luo Rui asked back, "Who among those businessmen is clean? Even if they are ripped off and lose a large sum of money, as long as nothing happens to the person, they may not tell the police."

"This……"

"Have you conducted a detailed investigation of the wealthy businessmen in Guangxing City? Have any of them recently withdrawn large amounts of cash from the bank, or transferred a large sum of money to an overseas account?"

Du Feng frowned: "No, why do you think He Tianxiang and his gang are just trying to get the money of wealthy businessmen?"

"I'm just guessing. After all, you just said that the bank and jewelry store didn't find any robbery, and these people have guns and are very powerful. But no matter how powerful they are, they dare not go against the wind and go against our police.

Then the best way for them to attack wealthy businessmen is to do it secretly and without anyone noticing, as wealthy people value their lives very much.

Of course, besides people like them, there are many other ways to make money, such as cheating other people? I think these people are not taking the usual path. "

Du Feng slapped his thigh and stood up: "According to your analysis, it does open up a new idea. Let's go to the Municipal Bureau now."

Luo Rui sat on the sofa without moving.

"Come on, why are you still standing there?"

"No, Lao Du, Director Wei just approved that I will be on leave for the next two days. You can't increase the intensity as soon as I come back, right?

Besides, Chen Hao is following up on this case, so he is all that matters."

"No, I'll go find Director Wei right now and ask him to cancel your leave." Du Feng said seriously, "This case could lead to bad consequences at any time. With you and Qing Gui investigating together, our task force can achieve twice the result with half the effort and catch these people sooner."

……

……

Guangxing City, Municipal Bureau.

Except for Tian Guanghan, everyone from the criminal team came.

This guy returned to the bureau, said hello to his boss, and went home without stopping. As for why he didn't wait until the evening to go back?

Those who understand will understand that at this time, the wife is still at home and the children have not yet finished school. It is a good time to pay the public grain.

The office building of the Provincial Urban Bureau is not an ordinary place. The Criminal Investigation Detachment alone is a separate office building.

Yang Bo came from a small place. He used to work in a police station under the jurisdiction of Shahe County as a local police officer. He has followed Luo Rui for the past two years and has seen many county and city units. This is his first time here.

Not only him, but Fang Yonghui also opened his eyes wide and looked at the policemen coming and going in the compound. Each of them was full of energy and had an elite demeanor.

Even the uniforms they wore were ironed straight, and the way they walked made people feel very handsome.

The last time Luo Rui came to Guangxing Municipal Bureau, the detachment leader was still Wu Dahao and the deputy detachment leader was Kang Bolin. Now things have changed.

The captain's office was on the third floor. As soon as they went up, Luo Rui saw a familiar figure.

When the other party saw him, he was stunned: "Team Leader Luo!"

"Hey, Wu Lei, long time no see. Now that you've been transferred to the provincial and municipal governments, your spirit and energy are different."

"That's right." Wu Lei scratched the back of his head and greeted Cai Xiaojing, "Captain Cai."

Cai Xiaojing nodded: "How is it? Is Xiaorui okay?"

"I'm still on maternity leave and won't be able to go back to work until the second half of the year."

"Hey, time flies. You and Xiaorui have become parents now."

"We have no other choice. Our family is pushing us hard. We think we will get married in the future anyway, so it doesn't matter whether we get married early or late."

Luo Rui rolled his eyes: "Is that the reason? Didn't you get on the bus first and buy the ticket later?"

Wu Lei's face turned red and he coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment.

Du Feng was too lazy to listen to their small talk and interrupted, "Where's Chen Zhi?"

"Where else could he be? He interrogated He Tianxiang as soon as he came in this morning..." Wu Lei said, looking at the watch on his wrist: "So far, the interrogation has lasted for a full eight hours. I'm just about to deliver the materials to him, you guys come with me."

"Okay." Du Feng agreed, and the group followed Wu Lei to the interrogation room.

The corridor of the interrogation room was quiet, and no sound was heard after the iron door was opened.

But the light was on in interrogation room No. 1 in front, indicating that an interrogation was taking place inside.

Luo Rui and Du Feng followed Wu Lei into the observation room next door and saw Hu Changyu sitting in a chair.

"Director Hu." The two people greeted in unison.

Hu Changyu's face looks older than before. One can imagine the pressure he was under during his time in the province and city.

"Luo Rui, you're here." Hu Changyu stood up with a smile and pointed at the one-way glass: "Look, this is He Tianxiang, a diehard."

He didn't say much about the information of the case. After all, since Luo Rui could come to this place, he must have understood the cause and effect of the matter.

Luo Rui looked towards the interrogation room. Chen Hao and an old detective were sitting in chairs. Neither of them spoke, but just stared at the suspect across the table.

It is not accurate to say that he is a suspect. The fact that He Tianxiang committed crimes in Sichuan Province is very accurate, but we are not sure what he is doing in Guangxing City at the moment.

He Tianxiang's hands were handcuffed to the table, and because his body was restrained, he could only stand up straight.

Although the interrogation lasted for three days, He Tianxiang was still very energetic. His eyes were cunning and ruthless, and he looked towards the single-sided glass from time to time.

Facing Chen Hao's gaze, he neither looked at him nor avoided it.

Hu Changyu said: "After interrogating him for three days, Chen Hao couldn't do anything to him."

Because he didn't know the specific circumstances of the case, Luo Rui didn't dare to say much.

However, Du Feng quickly told Hu Changyu their speculation in detail.

Hu Changyu did not rush to draw conclusions, but thought for a while and said, "We have not investigated Luo Rui's direction yet, but we cannot rule out the possibility that He Tianxiang and his gang have the same purpose. They want to get some money and escape. This makes sense."

As he spoke, Hu Changyu walked to the table, pressed the microphone, and told Chen Hao who was interrogating him: "Chen Hao, the interrogation is suspended."

Luo Rui saw that Chen Hao obviously breathed a sigh of relief. He said nothing to He Tianxiang, stood up and left the interrogation room.

The people in the observation room also started to walk out, but Luo Rui stopped in front of the one-way glass. He found that He Tianxiang's eyes were looking at him again.

There was mockery, malice, and provocation in his eyes!

You are awesome!

Luo Rui couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart. He felt that this was not the expression of resistance from an ordinary criminal. It was as if he was fearless and had a backup plan.

Generally, even if the suspects dared to confront the police, they have already been caught and there is some fear and anxiety in their eyes. But this is not the case with He Tianxiang.

"Let's go, why are you still standing there?" Du Feng called out.

Luo Rui turned around and walked out of the observation room full of suspicion.

When Chen Hao saw him, he breathed a sigh of relief, just like Du Feng did when he saw him before.

"Luo Rui, when did you come?"

"I just arrived. Why, do you want to treat me to a meal?"

"Okay." Chen Hao smiled and said, "When you get off work tonight, you can go to my house and ask your sister-in-law to cook two dishes. By the way, Captain Cai is here too, you two can go together." Du Feng pouted, "What about me?"

Chen Hao laughed and scolded, "How dare you ask me to treat you? How many meals did you extort from me last time I went on a mission?"

"That's different. Eating at your house and eating out are two different things."

"Okay, okay, you're one." Chen Hao took out his cell phone and prepared to call his wife.

Hu Changyu said: "Time is urgent, let's go upstairs for the meeting first."

"Okay." Chen Hao put down his phone and sent a text message, asking Chen Shuhui to buy some good food as there would be guests at home in the evening.

Although it is called a meeting, it is not formal. It is just a meeting of the investigators of the case gathered together. Such meetings are held every morning and evening. They are used to sort out and analyze the case, as well as summarize the new clues found.

Chen Hao stood in front of the whiteboard, holding a marker in his hand, and circled He Tianxiang's photo on the whiteboard.

"A week ago, on June 10, He Tianxiang appeared in our city. As for how we found him, it was because the traffic police were handling a traffic accident that day and found his figure in the surveillance video while retrieving the road surveillance..."

As he spoke, a photo captured from the surveillance camera appeared on the big screen behind Chen Hao.

The time in the upper left corner shows 7:30 p.m. on June 10th, and the location is at the intersection of Jiangjun Road and Yantang Road.

In the photo, two cars rear-ended each other on the road, and at that moment, a man in a baseball cap walked across the sidewalk.

Because at the moment of the rear-end collision, the man glanced at the road, and the road surveillance camera happened to capture his face.

This face belongs to the A-level wanted criminal He Tianxiang!
What is Grade A?
The order is issued by the Ministry of Public Security for fugitives who are considered to be wanted, and is mainly applicable to emergency situations, serious cases or sudden serious cases.

Suspects on Class A wanted warrants have generally committed serious crimes and are being pursued through a nationwide network. County and city bureaus across the country must keep a close eye on this criminal.

The traffic police immediately performed facial recognition and comparison on the face, and after confirming that it was undoubtedly He Tianxiang, the traffic police detachment immediately reported it to the Municipal Bureau.

After that, Chen Hao led the team to maneuver. After watching a large amount of road surveillance and looking for witnesses, they finally locked down the place where He Tianxiang often appeared in the Sishui Bridge area.

Immediately, Chen Hao carried out the capture mission. With the cooperation of the special police and criminal police of the branch, he finally captured He Tianxiang in the bridge tunnel of Sishui Bridge.

Immediately, photos of the interior of the bridge tunnel appeared on the big screen.

Chen Hao said: "As you can see, He Tianxiang has been living in the No. 5 bridge hole of the Sishui Bridge for a long time. In addition to him, there are three homeless people.

When we arrested him, he was carrying a pistol with 23 rounds of bullets. This was the same pistol he used to shoot two victims in Sichuan Province last year.

At this time, Luo Rui raised his hand: "How can we be sure that He Tianxiang has a gang?"

Chen Hao replied: "This is a clue provided by three homeless people living in the bridge tunnel. They said that He Tianxiang came to the bridge tunnel ten days before he was arrested.

At that time, He Tianxiang was the only one there. The homeless people treated him as one of their own and tried to chat with him, but he ignored them.

After that, He Tianxiang slept during the day and went out at night. One night, late at night on June 15th, a group of people came to the bridge arch and passed by Bridge Arch No. 3 where the homeless man slept.

At that time, a homeless man named Jin was woken up. He saw these people and was very curious about who they were, so he quietly crossed the No. 4 bridge arch and peeked into the No. 5 bridge arch.

Upon closer look, he discovered that there were at least five people in the group, and some of them were holding guns.

Including He Tianxiang, there were six people in the group, discussing something in the bridge tunnel, but because the homeless man was frightened, he didn't dare to eavesdrop. "

Luo Rui looked at the others and saw that they had no urge to speak. It should be that everyone already knew about the case except himself, Cai Xiaojing and others.

"You didn't hear a word?"

Chen Hao nodded: "We have asked carefully, and the homeless man surnamed Jin did not hear anything. The group of people were talking in a very low voice, and there were cars passing by on the bridge at the time."

"Not always……"

“I’ve tried it.”

Chen Hao's words immediately dispelled Luo Rui's doubts: "At the same time and in the same place, I simulated the scene at that time. Not to mention that there were cars passing by the bridge, even if there was no sound of tires rolling over the bridge, standing in the No. 4 bridge tunnel, you can't hear the sound in the No. 5 bridge tunnel."

"Did the homeless man see the faces of these people clearly?"

Chen Hao shook his head: "No, he said it was late at night, the light was too dim, and he didn't dare to look closely."

"Where's the surveillance? The surveillance around the Sishui Bridge should have been checked, right?"

"There are only surveillance cameras on the bridge deck, but not underneath the bridge. We also simulated the route taken by the gang to look for road surveillance, but we didn't find any of them.

Moreover, now that He Tianxiang refuses to speak, the case has reached a dead end."

Luo Rui asked several questions in succession, thinking that he could find a flaw, but then he thought that Green Ghost Chen Hao was no ordinary person, and he had already investigated everything he should investigate.

The current method is to fight with He Tianxiang to see if we can get anything out of him.

Otherwise, Chen Hao would not have interrogated him for several days.

Chen Hao sighed, took out his cigarette box and wanted to smoke a cigarette, but he saw Hu Changyu there, so he held back.

"This is my fault. If I hadn't been in a hurry to arrest He Tianxiang and had figured out the situation first, I could have caught the whole gang in one fell swoop.

After arresting He Tianxiang and relying on the confession of the homeless man surnamed Jin, we immediately deployed spies at Sishui Bridge, but this group of people has not appeared in the past few days. "

"You can't be blamed for this." Hu Changyu said, "No one knew that He Tianxiang had gathered a group of people. If you hadn't taken action in advance, if He Tianxiang had escaped, we would have been held responsible.

Apart from anything else, now that Sichuan Province has heard that someone has been arrested, they have sent people over to transfer He Tianxiang back."

Chen Hao immediately said, "That won't do. He hasn't said anything yet. If these five gangsters hiding in the city attack with guns, how can we face the people?"

Hu Changyu nodded and turned the pen in his hand: "I will deal with them..."

As he said this, he looked at Luo Rui: "Since Luo Rui can participate in this case, it must be a matter of time before these people are caught."

"Director Hu, please don't praise me too much." Luo Rui was shocked.

"Everyone has heard about the spy case you cracked in Linjiang City. If nothing else, with your ability, you will definitely be able to do it. What's more, when I was in Linjiang City, it was you and Chen Hao who arrested X together. This time, I have to rely on you as well."

Seeing Hu Changyu's sincerity and the passion in his eyes, how could Luo Rui refuse?

This is an old leader with whom he once fought. To be honest, Hu Changyu is more like his teacher than Wei Qunshan.

"Director Hu, I'll do my best."

"Okay then." Wei Qunshan glanced at the wall clock. It was already seven in the evening. "It's getting late. Let's go off work early today.

Get some rest, and start hunting these people down tomorrow morning. Capture them!"

"Yes!" everyone answered and watched Hu Changyu leave.

……

……

At 7:30 in the evening, in Chen Hao's car.

Luo Rui sat in the passenger seat, Cai Xiaojing sat in the back seat, and Du Feng said he would come but didn't.

"How is it? Do you find this case a bit of a headache?" Chen Hao looked at Luo Rui while driving.

"Let's not talk about work after get off work, okay?"

"Okay, you have the final say."

"By the way, how are my sister-in-law and my nephew doing lately?"

"It's just like that, neither good nor bad."

Cai Xiaojing smiled and said, "From the tone of your voice, it's not good."

Chen Hao patted the steering wheel and said, "Well, every family has its own problems. My son, whom you have met before, is called Chen Ma. He has grown up and has his own thoughts. He is not easy to discipline."

Luo Rui said: "Why do you discipline him? People have their own way of growing up. Even if he is wrong, as long as he can realize his mistakes, he will correct himself in the future."

"Correct your ass!" Chen Hao cursed, "Just this morning, I sent him to school and he got upset with me."

"There's a generation gap between you and him. Don't worry, it's okay." Luo Rui patted his shoulder and said, "He and I are about the same age, both about 16 or 17 years old. I'll have a good chat with him later."

"Bullshit!" Chen Hao laughed and scolded, "You are still sixteen or seventeen years old, so shouldn't you call me uncle and Captain Cai aunt?"

Upon hearing this, Cai Xiaojing also started laughing.

Luo Rui said: "By the way, you always have a stern face, smile more often."

"You told me this many years ago." Chen Hao sighed, "My family and work are both a mess. I can only smile more after I retire."

"Don't forget yourself. Making yourself happy is the most important thing."

"Yes, you are right." Chen Hao nodded.

Around eight o'clock, Chen Hao parked his car in the community.

After getting off the car, Luo Rui and Cai Xiaojing looked around the neighborhood carefully.

Chen Hao locked the car door and led the way: "My place can't compare to your villa by the sea."

"That's right. How many policemen are as rich as me?" Luo Rui joked to himself, and then said seriously: "When we first came in, I saw that there were not many security guards in the community, and there were not many surveillance cameras inside, so it was not very safe."

"The house price is cheap and the property fee is low. It's a good deal to be able to buy this place." Chen Hao walked into the corridor.

Luo Rui looked up and around, but didn't see any surveillance cameras.

Arriving at Room 402 on the fourth floor, Chen Hao took out his key and said, "This is my home."

"Your sister-in-law must have prepared a large table of dishes. Let's have a few drinks tonight." Chen Hao said as he opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, Chen Hao's face froze.

Luo Rui looked out the door and saw that the door of the bedroom diagonally opposite was opened. An old lady was lying on the ground with her hands leaning forward.

"Mom!" Chen Hao swallowed and ran into the house.

Cai Xiaojing also wanted to follow in, but was stopped by Luo Rui.

"What's wrong?" She turned to look at him.

Luo Rui pointed to the bottom of the gatehouse: "Here."

Cai Xiaojing looked down and saw a letter lying at her feet.
