Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 337 Unable to refuse reasons

Seven years ago, the handover was carried out at a fixed location... Yu Dazhang felt that although this method was safe, it was not as simple and effective as the later handover method.

Using a warehouse as a transit point eliminates the need for passengers on both sides to even meet.

However, as time went on, the warehouse inevitably aroused suspicion from others.

Therefore, the warehouse itself is the biggest hidden danger.

Therefore, it is safer to choose an address randomly.

There's a saying: "Hit and run."

"Are you still able to contact your junior high school classmate?"

The police officer in charge of the interrogation was very professional and knew how to prioritize.

If they can catch his junior high school classmate, it will be a major breakthrough for the case.

But you have to be quick.

Once the other side learns that the industrial zone has been raided, everyone on this line will cut ties with Yancheng.

“We haven’t been in touch for over a year,” the man replied.

"However, I have his contact information."

Upon hearing this, the police officer opposite him fell silent.

Even Yu Dazhang frowned.

What reason should I use to contact the other party?

This is their biggest headache right now.

You only get one chance.

If the other party notices something amiss, it could very well alert them.

Moreover, what they lack most right now is time.

If the other party hesitates even slightly and delays for a few days, they will find out about the situation in Yancheng.

Ideally, that person would show up... Yu Dazhang's brain was racing, and various reasons kept flashing through his mind.

The officers in the interrogation room were also deep in thought, seemingly unable to find a suitable reason.

A moment later, Yu Dazhang slapped his forehead.

Damn it, what am I thinking? There are already people here... He looked at the man sitting in the interrogation chair on the surveillance screen.

His own junior high school classmate was, of course, the one he knew best.

Moreover, when it comes to making excuses and fabricating reasons, he is probably the only one who truly understands the other person's temperament.

Thinking of this, Yu Dazhang picked up the microphone and quickly said:
"Ask him what reason he can use to get the other person to meet up, preferably so that they can see him in person and can't refuse."

Just state your request directly; there's no need to rack your brains over it.

Yu Dazhang thought about it from a different perspective.

If it's someone you know well, it's much simpler; you have plenty of ways to get them to come out.

There's no other reason than that we're familiar enough with each other and understand each other's personalities.

The officer in charge of the interrogation immediately relayed Yu Dazhang's words to the man.

The sentence "the other party cannot refuse" was specifically emphasized.

He clearly knew that this was his only chance.

Upon hearing this, the man's expression immediately became complicated, and his demeanor became much more serious.

After a moment, he said in a deep voice:

Can I have a cigarette?

“Okay.” The officer on the other end nodded, then took out a cigarette from his pocket.

"I want to smoke my own cigarettes," the man demanded.

“When you put me in the car, you took all my belongings, including my cigarettes. I don’t like other brands of cigarettes.”

"You're dreaming..." Yu Dazhang looked at the man on the video screen and curled his lip in disdain.

Such suspects cannot have any personal belongings on them; even metal buttons must be confiscated.

Some suspects with extreme personalities are prone to committing extreme acts after being apprehended.

In his previous life, Yu Dazhang had witnessed a suspect use a blade hidden in his belt to slit his own carotid artery.

There are also those who hoard sodium cyanide and potassium cyanide; once caught, they must be given the drugs immediately, and even then, there's no saving them.

Who knows if that man deliberately left poisonous smoke in his cigarette?

Although the chances are low, no one would take such a risk, and it's also against regulations.

"If you're going to smoke, smoke mine." The provincial police officer naturally wouldn't allow that to happen; he stared at the man with a stern expression.

"You need to know where you are first. From now on, you need to say goodbye to your old habits completely."

The man was taken aback, seemingly not expecting his request to be rejected.

But he quickly realized:
"Then try your cigarette."

In this situation, being given a cigarette is already a privilege, so he wouldn't dare to complain.

After lighting the cigarette, he took two puffs and then fell into deep thought again.

With the help of the cigarette, his thinking became much smoother this time, and he didn't even frown. Instead, he seemed to be savoring something.

Just as he was about to finish his cigarette, the man suddenly spoke:

"There is a way to see him, and he can't refuse."

After pausing, the man took another drag of his cigarette, tossed the butt away, and continued:
“I told him I was quitting and that I was going to take two other people and start a legitimate business, and that he should find someone to take over.”

“He will definitely believe me, because I have told him more than once that once I have made enough money, I will start my own business and live a few peaceful days.”

This reason is indeed sufficient and reasonable... After hearing it, Yu Dazhang also thought there was no problem.

However, the provincial police officers felt that this was not quite right.

"What would you do if your classmate really sent someone to take over?"

His worries were justified.

If they actually send someone to take over, the police will only have caught the "feet," which won't help the case at all.

"Don't worry, he will definitely come to Yancheng to find me in person."

The man's eyes were resolute, and his face was full of confidence as he spoke, making one want to believe him.

"Why are you so sure?" The officer sitting opposite him still seemed a little uneasy.

This is a very important matter, and he needs to know the specific reasons.

“I know him too well,” the man replied.

"He is not only suspicious, but also arrogant. He would definitely come over in person to hand over such a big matter."

“There’s another thing he needs to do personally. He’ll try to persuade me to stay and offer me more compensation.”

Upon hearing this, the police officer's face visibly showed some emotion.

Yu Dazhang also understood the key points.

What they're doing now isn't exactly a respectable job.

It's not the kind of job where you can resign and then recruit from the public.

These three people were introduced to each other and it took several years to gather them all, so when the three of them left together, it meant that the connection was broken.

The so-called handover is just an excuse; the other side won't let these three people leave easily.

If the man insists on leaving, his classmate will definitely come to persuade him to stay.

The interrogation room fell silent.

The officer in charge of the interrogation glanced at the camera and made his meaning clear: let Yu Dazhang make the decision.

"Use this reason," Yu Dazhang said, picking up the microphone.

"Let him make the call."

The officer nodded slightly to indicate that he had heard.

The suspect's phone was then taken to the interrogation room.

"Should I use speakerphone?" the man asked, holding up his phone.

"No need," the officer replied.

"Just talk to me like you normally would when you make a phone call."

When using hands-free calling, the sound is transmitted through the phone's speaker, and if you listen carefully, the other party can hear their own echo.

If the other party is a meticulous person, they will easily notice anything unusual.

The man nodded and then dialed the number.

The phone rang only twice before the other party answered.

"Hey?"

"It's me." The man's voice was steady, sounding like he was just having a casual conversation.

"I have something to tell you. I'm not planning to continue doing this. Xiao Kong and the other guy also feel that there's no point in continuing. We're planning to start a factory together."

"Set up a factory?" The person on the other end of the phone scoffed.
"The three of you want to open a factory? Are you crazy?"
