Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 520 Before Dark
As if her thoughts had been hit, the girl's expression changed from wary to tense.

"Come with us."

Yu Dazhang showed her his identification:
"You know perfectly well why you're being detained, so I won't say any more. Hand over your phone."

Upon hearing this, Sha Hui reluctantly handed over her phone to him.

After getting the phone, Yu Dazhang moved half a step to the side to make room for his master.

Lu Zhongxin understood and immediately took out handcuffs, went forward and cuffed one of Sha Hui's hands. Just as he was about to cuff her other hand, Yu Dazhang suddenly reached out and stopped him.

"Wait a moment."

Under Lü Zhongxin's questioning gaze, Yu Dazhang stared at Sha Hui and said:

"You probably didn't have enough time to report the news just now, but I'll give you a chance now."

He opened his palm and waved it in front of Sha Hui:
"Within five minutes, contact whoever you can; after five minutes, it won't help you contact anyone."

Lü Zhongxin: !!! !!! !
He had expected his apprentice to be unconventional in handling cases, but he never imagined it would go this far.

Openly sending a suspect to report a crime?
Isn't this just like digging a hole for yourself?

"Da Zhang, you..."

He had just opened his mouth to stop him when Yu Dazhang raised his hand to interrupt him.

"I know it well."

As he spoke, he handed the phone back to her:

"Remember, just five minutes."

The moment he got hold of Sha Hui's phone, he suddenly realized a crucial issue.

Regardless of whether Sha Hui would tip off the illegal online lending platforms, as long as she was brought back to the police station, they would definitely get the news.

In that case, why not let her take the initiative to contact the other party?

This way, you can immediately obtain the other party's phone information and also probe the headquarters' attitude towards this matter.

At present, Yu Dazhang is only speculating about the headquarters.

Moreover, sometimes alerting the enemy isn't necessarily a bad thing.

This approach will deter illegal online lenders and curb their activities.

After all, Yu Dazhang was so eager to solve the case in order to prevent any more murders from happening.

"Really, really?"

Sha Hui looked at the phone being handed to her, but hesitated to take it.

"Time is running out," Yu Dazhang urged.
"Hurry up."

Seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, Sha Hui reached out and took the phone, thought for a moment, and then made a call.

"Let's make the call right here."

Seeing that she was about to turn around, Yu Dazhang immediately reminded her:

"You must not leave my sight."

Sha Hui nodded and turned back around.

The call connected quickly, and she began to speak:
“I’ve been arrested, and the police are blocking my door right now.”

She didn't know what the other person said, but Sha Hui suddenly became agitated.

She shouted loudly:
"You said it yourself, that you would keep me safe even if something happened. I don't care, if I go in, you won't have a good time either."

After she finished speaking, she listened to the person on the other end of the line while panting heavily.

About half a minute later, Sha Hui spoke again:
"I don't know which police station they were from. One of the officers had a long face, like someone owed him money, and the other officer was very fat with a big belly."

Upon hearing this, both the master and apprentice frowned.

That's really hurtful.

That's not how you describe someone.

And it was said to his face.
You shouldn't insult someone by pointing out their weaknesses, and you shouldn't hit someone in the face, but she goes and specifically targets people's shortcomings to describe them.

Another half minute passed, and Sha Hui's expression relaxed a bit, and her tone softened:

"Okay, I'll wait for you. Hurry up. I won't tell you anything before dark, no matter what happens, but I'll only wait until it's dark." After the call ended, she wanted to make another call, but Yu Dazhang stopped her.

"Time is up."

He held out his hand, gesturing for Sha Hui to hand over her phone:
"I told you, I'll only give you five minutes."

He heard everything that was said on the other end of the phone clearly.

It was nothing more than reassuring Sha Hui not to panic and promising to get her out.

She could tell from the other person's confident tone that they weren't trying to fool her.

What Yu Dazhang found strange was that the man opposite him sounded very young, probably only in his twenties.

He found it hard to believe that the person who created this shady online lending scheme was so young.

Hongkou Branch.

trial room.

Sha Hui, female, 20 years old, a local resident of Songhai...

Yu Dazhang put down the documents and looked coldly at Sha Hui opposite him:
"You don't actually think he can get you out of here, do you?"

Sha Hui did not answer, but lowered her head and remained silent.

"How about this."

Yu Dazhang thought for a moment and said:
"Tell me the other person's identity information, and I'll go and discuss it with him in person."

In the interrogation room, he naturally dared not speak carelessly, much less mention the matter of asking Sha Hui to deliver the message.

After waiting for about a minute, Sha Hui still didn't speak, and Yu Dazhang's patience gradually ran out.

He doesn't have time to waste here.

"Master, I'll have someone else come in."

Yu Dazhang stood up and gestured for Lü Zhongxin to sit in his seat.

Lü Zhongxin understood and got up to sit down.

Come outside.

He immediately called Wei Qian:

"Captain Wei, due to the complexity of the case, our team needs backup."

"Four people aren't enough?" Wei Qian on the other end was somewhat surprised, then realized:
"Has the case changed? It's not suicide?"

That's the captain's reaction speed. As soon as Yu Dazhang made a request, Captain Wei immediately asked three questions in a row.

"It's complicated and can't be explained in just a sentence or two."

Yu Dazhang didn't have time to explain, so he urged:

“The Zeng Xiaoxiao suicide case was also not simple. I suspect it is related to the same group of people. So now we must hurry up and not let a third suicide happen.”

"We don't need much, give us two more people."

Upon hearing that there might be a third suicide, Wei Qian immediately took it seriously and said in a solemn tone:

"Our staff will be here within ten minutes. Please contact me anytime if you have any further requests."

After hanging up the phone, Yu Dazhang didn't rush to leave. Instead, he found Wang Lingling's phone and located Jiang Qi's name in the call log.

He then took out his phone and dialed the number listed.

The ringtone had barely rung for two seconds when a male voice came through the phone:
"Hey?"

"I'm a criminal investigator from the Hongkou branch," Yu Dazhang said, getting straight to the point.

"I'd like to speak with you in person to understand the situation regarding Wang Lingling. I hope you can come to the branch office."

Upon hearing that it was about Wang Lingling, Jiang Qi on the other end immediately asked excitedly:

"What happened to her? I couldn't contact her before the Lunar New Year. Wasn't she supposed to go home for the holiday?"

It seems he didn't know Wang Lingling was in trouble either... After making this judgment, Yu Dazhang replied:
"Let's discuss the specifics in person."

"Can we avoid going to the police station?" Jiang Qi's voice sounded hesitant on the other end.
“My family is in business. If I go to the police station and get seen there, people will inevitably make a fuss about it. You know, some people like to take things out of context these days.”
