Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 559 This 300,000 must be in cash.

Fifteen minutes later.

Yu Dazhang received the cell phone that the surveyors had returned.

Two iPhone 6 Plus phones.

Looking at these two classic Apple models, Yu Dazhang was momentarily dazed.

The most direct feeling about being reborn is looking at the phone model.

Since his rebirth, Yu Dazhang has really not paid much attention to this aspect.

After all, he's not an Apple fan, and he's currently using a very ordinary phone that costs around 1,000 yuan.

To Yu Dazhang's surprise, Cheng Wenhao neither took the phone away nor destroyed it.

This shows that he no longer cares whether the police can find clues through mobile phones.

"Can it be unlocked?" Yu Dazhang asked the surveyors.

These people are from the technical department and have some experience in unlocking mobile phones.

"Okay, wait a moment."

One of the officers stepped forward, placed a laptop on the table, and then connected the phone to the computer.

"Whatever you do, don't wipe the data on your phone," Yu Dazhang warned.

He was indeed a little worried.

Watching this colleague operate, he always felt like he was looking for someone to flash his phone at an electronics market.

The officer didn't reply, but instead rolled his eyes at him.

Even though the other person hadn't said anything, Yu Dazhang felt that his insults were very vulgar.

Both phones were unlocked in just two minutes.

Yu Dazhang picked up a random phone and could tell from the screen saver picture that it belonged to that man.

I checked the call log, and the most recent call was at 8:21 pm last night.

That can be ruled out.

At that time, Cheng Wenhao and his group had not yet escaped from the detention center.

Yu Dazhang then picked up another phone, and this time he was immediately drawn to the call logs on it.

At 3:11 a.m., Yao Jing’s phone made an outgoing call 1 minute and 12 seconds later.

And there's more than just this one call record.

Six minutes later, at 3:17 a.m., there was another outgoing call record, this time lasting 55 seconds.

As expected... After seeing these two call records, Yu Dazhang did not feel happy at all; instead, he felt a heavy weight in his heart.

An inexplicable emotion weighed on him, making it hard for him to breathe.

Based on his deduction, a habitual offender like Cheng Wenhao would naturally know that there are limits on the amount of cash that can be withdrawn from an ATM.

The daily limit for a regular debit card is generally 20,000 yuan.

Therefore, it is simply impossible for him to withdraw 30 yuan from an ATM.

Going to the counter to withdraw money is even more impractical. For amounts over 50,000, you need to make an appointment one day in advance. Even for amounts under 50,000, you may be required to provide corresponding identification.

Therefore, there is a certain risk in Cheng Wenhao going to the counter to withdraw money.

In this situation, the best solution is to seek help from outside the venue.

Yao Jing was instructed to borrow the money from a friend, and then Cheng Wenhao was to handle the transaction with the other party.

Although this method is troublesome, it is undoubtedly the most reliable and safest option given the current situation.

But this is also what Yu Dazhang is most worried about.

Cheng Wenhao is now in a desperate situation, and anyone who comes into contact with him is in mortal danger.

If the other party senses something is amiss and doesn't want to hand over the money, Cheng Wenhao is very likely to kill them directly.

This is an outcome that no one wanted to see.

After hesitating for a moment, Yu Dazhang took out his phone and dialed the number from the first call log.

All he hopes now is that the call will still go through.

Fortunately, the call was answered just two seconds after the ringtone started.

"Hello, who is it?"

The person opposite me was a man, who sounded to be in his thirties and seemed very composed.

"I'm a police officer," Yu Dazhang said bluntly. "You know Yao Jing, right?"

"I know him," the man answered readily.
"She is my third uncle's daughter, and my cousin."

So they're relatives... Yu Dazhang continued to ask:

She probably called you late tonight to borrow money. I want to know if you lent it to her?

Yes, things have changed here too.

Just because Yao Jing made a phone call doesn't mean the other party will necessarily agree to lend her money.

These days, borrowing money is not an easy thing.

"She didn't ask me for money."

The man replied:
"She called to ask how much cash I could come up with, saying she needed it urgently."

“I’m in the electronics business, so I usually have a lot of cash on hand. I made a rough estimate and then told her I could come up with 160,000.”

He spoke very quickly, as if he couldn't wait to explain what had happened:

"Then she told me to find someone else to help me put together the money, saying that someone would contact me later to pick it up."

"Shortly after I hung up the phone, I received two transfers of money from her, 100,000 each, for a total of 200,000."

It wasn't a loan... This was something Yu Dazhang hadn't expected.

However, this method is more reliable than borrowing money.

It's likely that Cheng Wenhao had already figured out how to get the money before he approached Yao Jing.

Yao Jing's call was very precise; she directly contacted a relative who could come up with a large sum of cash.

This shows that Yao Jing has already suffered a mental breakdown.

At that point, she no longer cared about money; she only wanted to do her best to satisfy Cheng Wenhao in order to save her child's life.

"Later, I contacted a colleague overnight."

The man opposite continued:
"I got 40,000 yuan in cash from him, which made up the total of 200,000 yuan."

Upon hearing this, Yu Dazhang suddenly had an idea.

If Cheng Wenhao hasn't withdrawn the money yet, this would be a perfect opportunity to arrest him.

The man opposite me is still alive, and he speaks in a relaxed tone, so he may not have met Cheng Wenhao yet.

"Where's the money? Is it still in your hands?"

Yu Dazhang asked this question with a sense of wishful thinking.

"Your colleague took it."

The man answered slowly and deliberately:
“At five o’clock in the morning, before dawn, a man called me and said that Yao Jing had asked him to come and collect the money.”

"We then agreed to meet in front of a bank half an hour later."

"The person who took the money was wearing a police overcoat. After he identified himself and mentioned Yao Jing's name, I handed over the money to him."

He was so excited for nothing... Yu Dazhang felt deflated when he heard that the money had been taken away.

At the same time, he also realized that Yao Jing's cousin had never met Cheng Wenhao, otherwise he would have had no recollection of him at all.

It wasn't entirely fruitless; he heard that the person was wearing a police overcoat, so he could deduce that the person withdrawing the money was Cheng Wenhao.

Then Yu Dazhang asked about the person's physical characteristics.

Finally, it was confirmed that the other party was indeed Cheng Wenhao.

Now Yu Dazhang was really getting anxious.

Cheng Wenhao took away 200,000 yuan in one go, and he may have already raised the remaining 300,000 yuan.

Human nature is complex.

Especially for people with extreme personalities, it is easy to develop an obsession.

If someone were more easygoing, leaving 200,000 yuan to their parents would be enough; there would be no need to scrape together 300,000 yuan.

But Cheng Wenhao is different. He is clearly an extreme person, so he will definitely try his best to raise the money.

After hanging up the phone, Yu Dazhang immediately dialed another number from the call log.

"Hey?"

This time, a woman's voice came from the phone.
