Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 659 Catching someone is a piece of cake
Yu Dazhang then found technicians.

"Has the exact location been determined?"

"Location has been successfully established," the technical officer replied.

"The target was in Qingpu District, Songhai, but the target was constantly moving during the call, so it must have been made from a car. The signal disappeared after the call ended."

Yu Dazhang nodded after hearing this.

This situation was almost exactly as he had predicted.

The other party did not call Xie Wei from a fixed location, in order to prevent their specific location from being revealed.

Yu Dazhang speculated that the sudden disappearance of the signal was because the other party destroyed the used phone card immediately after making the call.

However, it wasn't entirely fruitless; at least we know where the other party is currently.

The woman, judging from her voice, is around thirty years old and currently lives in Qingpu District, Songhai City.

Although this information is limited, it represents all the information Da Zhang currently possesses about the other party.

Looking at the case information in conjunction with this...

The two disappearances in Songhai happened recently, and the perpetrators happened to be in Songhai.

Is it possible that the woman went to Songhai because of the seven missing young women?
In Xie Wei's words, she went to collect the goods.

It's not certain yet, but the possibility is very high.

After leaving the technical department, Yu Dazhang called Captain Xu:

"are you back?"

"I'll be there soon." Captain Xu's voice sounded excited.

"The operation went very smoothly. All five people were apprehended and have undergone preliminary interrogation at the scene. They have confessed to their crimes without hesitation."

"Xie Wei paid them five thousand each."

They're really desperate for money... Yu Dazhang simply can't understand the thought process of these five people.

For a mere five thousand yuan, he participated in a crime, and it was a serious crime like trafficking women.

It should be understood that trafficking in more than three women and children constitutes a particularly serious offense.

The consequences of trafficking 14 people at once are unimaginable.

Even accomplices will be severely punished.

This only shows that these five people have a weak sense of law and do not know how serious their actions are.

On another note, Xie Wei, a seasoned human trafficker, completely fooled all five of them.

Ten minutes later, Yu Dazhang met Captain Xu, who had rushed back, at the door of the interrogation room.

"I will arrange the interrogation immediately."

Team Leader Xu quickly said:
"We must catch Xie Wei this time."

Arrest Xie Wei? Yu Dazhang was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.

Are we handling the same case?

"You arrested Xie Wei, then who was I interrogating just now..." Yu Dazhang looked at him, unsure how to respond.

"Don't just stand there," Captain Xu urged.

"If five people interrogate him at the same time, they will definitely be able to extract some important information."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly realized something and hurriedly asked:
"By the way, how's the interrogation of Xie Wei's relatives and friends going? If there's no progress, start interrogating these five people first."

Seeing his excited yet nervous expression, Yu Dazhang couldn't help but worry, afraid of upsetting him.

During this period, Captain Xu has been working at a high intensity, and his nerves have been constantly on edge.

He was already this excited after arresting five accomplices.

Yu Dazhang was genuinely worried that he wouldn't be able to handle the shock.

After all, as people reach middle age, their bodily functions decline drastically, especially in terms of cardiovascular health, which is incomparable to that of younger people.

"Captain Xu, don't worry."

Yu Dazhang took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed it to him, and then lit it for him.

"Take a couple of puffs to calm down. Not every case can be solved in a day." Captain Xu took a couple of puffs as usual, then felt like something was not quite right.

Why aren't you in a hurry at all?

He looked at Yu Dazhang and asked:
"You arranged all of this, you should be the most anxious, or have you found a new clue?"

The current progress of the case has already surprised him.

This fat man only arrived in S Province yesterday, and he neither worked overtime nor stayed up all night, yet the case has made such a significant breakthrough once it's in his hands.

Before this, the trail had gone cold.

The task forces in both provinces were at a loss.

If new clues are discovered today, Captain Xu might start to doubt whether he's even suited to be a criminal investigator.

"It's not really a new lead."

Seeing that his breathing was even while he was smoking, Yu Dazhang then said:
"Xie Wei has been apprehended, and the initial interrogation has concluded. The next step is to plan the arrest of his associates."

"I now need seven female police officers with combat experience..."

He had only spoken halfway when Captain Xu suddenly raised his hand to interrupt him.

"Wait a minute!"

He stared at Yu Dazhang and asked somewhat uncertainly:

"You just said Xie Wei has been caught?"

Yu Dazhang had anticipated this reaction, so he tried to speak in a gentle tone:
"Shortly after you left, our interrogation yielded an unexpected result: we learned that Xie Wei had rented a house locally, so we went there and arrested him."

Time was of the essence, so he didn't go into details, only giving a general overview.

But Captain Xu interpreted those words differently.

An unexpected gain?

Ghosts believe.

We've been investigating for so long, but we haven't found anything unexpected.

Team Leader Xu naturally didn't believe in coincidences; he knew that Yu Dazhang was simplifying the whole process.

He had met all nine of Xie Wei's relatives and friends, and had participated in the initial interrogation, but found nothing.

How come I had an unexpected gain after I left?
It was obvious that the fat man had found the key information among the nine of them.

That's incredibly efficient!
Captain Xu even felt that if he had returned a little later, the case might have been solved.

"Is the interrogation over?" he couldn't help but ask again.

"Xie Wei confessed?"

"Yes." Yu Dazhang nodded:
"He not only confessed, but also agreed to help our police set up a trap to arrest his associates. However, we now need seven women to go undercover."

“I have thought it through. These seven people cannot be grassroots police officers. They must have practical combat capabilities and at least be able to protect themselves.”

This is the most important thing.

If a female police officer who usually works in an office were to go undercover, Yu Dazhang didn't even dare to think about the consequences if something went wrong.

For example, these seven policewomen went missing and were actually taken away by the other side as if they were trafficked women.

Then it won't just be Yu Dazhang who's going to be unlucky; the entire task force will have to take the blame.

Anyone who didn't know better would think that the task force had specially sent seven female civilian police officers to the other side.

That's something that's hard to explain no matter how hard you try.

"I understand your idea."

Team Leader Xu quickly got into the zone and began to think about the problem.

After a moment, he continued:
“We do have female detectives in our police force, but there are very few of them, and it would be too difficult to gather seven in a short period of time.”

"And even if they were all together, they wouldn't know each other and wouldn't be able to coordinate, so they wouldn't be able to exert much combat power."

His brow furrowed slightly, as if he were pondering something, before he continued:

"Give me some time, I'll contact the Armed Police and see if we can get a female special forces team here."
