Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 602 Perfect Teamwork

This voice changer is such a hassle... Yu Dazhang couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

Especially with this kind of electronically synthesized voice, it always has the same tone, and you can't hear any changes in the other person's emotions at all.

However, Yu Dazhang could still tell that the other party had already identified him as a police officer.

On the way to the western suburbs.

He used his own phone to call Lü Zhongxin.

"Master, my next destination is the West Suburbs Hotel."

Yu Dazhang speaks very quickly:
"I suspect that was just an observation point set up by the other side. What they really wanted me to go to was a fork in the road in the suburbs."

"And there is definitely no surveillance camera at that fork in the road."

No matter which city's outskirts, there are many country roads, and some roads even lead to only one household.

Most of these country roads are not monitored.

"I see."

Lü Zhongxin responded in a serious tone:
"Next, we will closely monitor all intersections near the West Suburbs Hotel, focusing on the side streets without surveillance equipment."

After he finished speaking, he added:
"The suspect, Yu Chong, has been apprehended. We intercepted him near the elevator on the second floor of the shopping mall. Neither suspect was carrying a weapon, and officers have been dispatched to interrogate him on the spot."

"A very wise move..." Yu Dazhang thought to himself.

In a raid of this scale, even if the suspects are carrying guns, it's useless.

Rather than putting up a futile resistance, it's better to surrender.

Since he didn't have a weapon on him, he might receive a lighter sentence in the future.

Twenty minutes later.

Yu Dazhang arrived at the West Suburbs Hotel and parked his car in the open space outside the hotel.

He didn't deliberately delay, and drove at a normal speed the whole way.

Now he can confirm that the other party is not following him. Wu Rui and Yu Chong have both been arrested, and they do not have enough manpower to carry out the tracking.

Since that's the case, it doesn't matter whether you arrive early or late, since the time the other party calls is fixed anyway.

Sure enough, after he arrived, the other party did not contact him immediately. About five minutes later, the phone rang again.

Yu Dazhang glanced at the caller ID and then answered the call.

"Your location?" a synthesized voice came from the phone.

Looking out the car window, Yu Dazhang didn't see anyone suspicious around him, not even the police.

“The open space in front of the West Suburbs Hotel,” he answered truthfully.

After hearing this, the person on the other side gave him instructions:

"From there, take the south road, then drive east and park at the intersection of the second side road."

"There's a drainage ditch next to that intersection; it's easy to spot."

The other party clearly didn't even give Yu Dazhang a chance to play dumb, and directly described the characteristics of the intersection.

Before Da Zhang could reply, the other side continued:

"Officer, I hope you will cooperate. So far we have not harmed any hostages. We just want money. Please don't push us to the brink."

Wow, that's really professional... Yu Dazhang was speechless, completely taken aback by the other person's words.

"You only have five minutes, so hurry up. If your car isn't stopped at that intersection in five minutes, I won't contact you again."

The other party didn't give him a chance to reply and hung up the phone immediately after speaking.

Yu Dazhang hung up the phone, immediately started the car, and sped off.

The other party's requested time is a bit tight; even a slight hesitation could cause us to miss the deadline.

five minutes later.

He had just parked his car at the intersection when his phone rang.

As soon as I answered the call, a synthesized voice came through:

"Get out of the car, but don't turn off the engine."

Yu Dazhang was stunned for a moment after hearing the other party's instructions.

get off?

Isn't this where the gold is being exchanged?
He thought the other party would ask him to throw the gold on the side of the road, or drive into this side road and leave the gold in a deserted place.

Unexpectedly, they wanted more than just the gold; they also wanted to take his car.

That's for sure!
Sure enough, after Yu Dazhang got out of the car as requested, the synthesized voice sounded again:

"Get out of the car and continue east along the road."

This time, Yu Dazhang hesitated. If he did as the other party demanded, what happened next would be out of his control.

With no vehicles on the suburban roads, he could only watch as the other party hauled away the gold.

"Hurry up, I don't have the patience to waste time with you."

Even the synthesized voice sounded menacing this time.

"Now, immediately, head east. If you don't, you'll face the consequences."

He was really getting anxious... Yu Dazhang could tell that the other party wasn't just trying to scare him this time.

"it is good."

He agreed and walked eastward.

"Hurry up!" the person on the other end urged.

"Can't you be reasonable?" Yu Dazhang said, dissatisfied.
"I've already started hiking, how fast can I go?"

Actually, he deliberately walked slower.

It wasn't that they wanted to retaliate, but rather that they were buying time for Lü Zhongxin and his team.

I believe that Master and the others have now located this intersection, and the main force is heading this way.

Even with all his dawdling, he continued to drift further and further away from the intersection.

Just over twenty meters away, Yu Dazhang suddenly saw a person jogging up to the SUV, opening the door and getting into the driver's seat.

He recognized the person just by seeing their profile.

Qi Jiandong!
The next moment, the SUV drove off onto the country road.

Before Da Zhang could even react, a minivan drove out from the country road.

Upon reaching the intersection, the van abruptly turned the steering wheel, quickly swerving until it was parked across the middle of the intersection, completely blocking the already narrow road.

Immediately afterwards, the driver's side door of the van opened, and a man got out of the vehicle.

He glanced at Yu Dazhang in the distance, then ran towards the path.

Tan Mou!

They're working so well together... Yu Dazhang isn't in a hurry anymore; even if he rushed over now, it wouldn't make a difference.

By the time they reached the intersection, the two men had already driven away in their SUV.

That's a brilliant move! It saves you the trouble of moving the gold and blocks the only entrance and exit.

Soon, Lü Zhongxin and Wei Qian arrived with their officers. Upon discovering that the van's doors were locked, an officer immediately retrieved a tow rope and pulled the vehicle away from the intersection.

"Block all the nearby intersections."

At Wei Qian's command, the vehicles immediately dispersed and drove to both sides of the road.

Such country roads usually connect to other side roads, so the kidnappers must have scouted the area beforehand; they wouldn't leave themselves a dead end.

Then Yu Dazhang got into his master's car.

"Chase."

The car started immediately and drove into the side road.

After driving for a while, Yu Dazhang looked out the car window at the surrounding environment.

Upon seeing several dirt roads, each over a meter wide, he immediately understood what was happening.

Gold cannot be saved.

They chose this country road because of these dirt roads.

Such roads are only suitable for pedestrians or two-wheeled vehicles, such as bicycles and motorcycles.

Cars definitely can't pass because the width isn't enough.

There are drainage ditches on both sides, and only a dirt road, a little over a meter wide, protruding in the middle. Cars would definitely get stuck if they tried to pass through.

Drive slowly.

As Yu Dazhang spoke, his gaze fell on the dirt roads.

There are more than one tire track, indicating that people frequently pass through these roads.

He then looked to the other side of the dirt road, where there were rows of bungalows, clearly a natural village.

If the other party were to move the gold from here, they would definitely prepare a motorcycle.

Just as he was considering the possibility of using a bicycle, the walkie-talkie on the vehicle suddenly rang:

"Target vehicle spotted at the western fork in the road!"
