Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 745 Still Too Late

I hope you can cooperate.

Yu Dazhang had just seen a deep and desperate look in his eyes, giving the impression of a madman on the verge of losing control.

"Are all the women you acquired living in these villas?" he asked again.

Gu Dingwen kept his head down, as if he hadn't heard anything.

"Those women in the room, were they used as surrogates by you?"

As soon as Yu Dazhang asked the question, Gu Dingwen reacted immediately.

He looked up again, his eyes filled with surprise as he looked at Yu Dazhang, as if to say: How did you know?

From the time the police broke into the villa until now, less than five minutes have passed. In such a short time, it is obviously impossible to know what happened to the woman in the hospital bed.

unless……

The police had guessed his motive before the operation.

This was also what surprised him.

Gu Dingwen's reaction confirmed Yu Dazhang's guess.

After a brief eye contact, Gu Dingwen lowered his head again.

"Take him away," Yu Dazhang ordered.

He had just seen a look of utter despair in Gu Dingwen's eyes, which meant he had resigned himself to his fate.

Getting someone like that to speak would take some effort, and this is clearly not a suitable place.

Watching Gu Dingwen being taken away, Yu Dazhang took out his phone and dialed the number of officers from the Criminal Investigation Department.

After the call connected, he immediately gave the instructions:
“There’s no need to stay at the hotel any longer. Send Zhang Jiangke back to the detention center first, and then ask the colleagues from the pre-trial investigation to come over and conduct a surprise interrogation of Gu Dingwen overnight.”

The officer opposite him paused for a moment, then asked excitedly:

"Gu Dingwen has been captured?"

"The arrest operation went relatively smoothly," Yu Dazhang replied.

"He has been taken to the Criminal Investigation Department. Please hurry."

Leave professional tasks to professionals.

Suspects like Gu Dingwen, who have given up on treatment, can't be pried open in a short time. It's better to let the pre-trial colleagues give him some work first.

Even criminal investigators need rest after solving cases. After working non-stop for two days, Yu Dazhang was also feeling the strain.

Therefore, interdepartmental collaboration becomes particularly important at this time, and he is making use of all available resources.

Moreover, he also needs to conduct further investigations into the villa.

As he emerged, Yu Dazhang first looked at the female special forces members. They stood there, each one full of energy, their eyes sparkling with eager anticipation.

Although they tried their best to hide it, Yu Dazhang still caught the murderous aura emanating from them.

Upon seeing him emerge, the seven girls quickly adjusted their posture, stood in a neat row, and struck a perfect attention pose.

Yu Dazhang was all too familiar with this gesture; it was body language, they were waiting for his command.

"You have done a very good job."

Yu Dazhang first expressed his approval, then changed the subject:
"This is none of your business. Go back to the car and wait."

The entire row of villas is now completely surrounded, and the police officers involved in the arrest are all experienced veteran criminal investigators.

Therefore, there is no need for them to take action at all.

The main thing is that they use deadly moves without holding back.

The police's duty is to bring criminals to justice, while the women's approach is to eliminate the enemy with a single blow. Since their goals are different, it's best to avoid getting involved once the situation is under control.

"us……"

The girl in the lead said in a consultative tone:
"Let us stay outside, and we promise not to make a move."

Yu Dazhang hesitated for a moment.

This is good, at least it can effectively prevent someone from escaping in the chaos, since the police do not know the exact number of the perpetrators and are not very familiar with the layout of the villa.

In such a situation, it's inevitable that some people will try to take advantage of the situation.

"Alright, you all stay outside the villa and keep a close watch on anything that happens inside," Yu Dazhang instructed.

"Remember, while ensuring your own safety, try to capture the criminals alive."

It's necessary to remind them.

He didn't want any of the suspects inside to come out dead.

Then Yu Dazhang went down to the first floor, which was the kitchen and dining area, but there was nothing special about it.

But when he arrived on the second floor, he saw rooms filled with hospital beds, with a woman lying on almost every bed.

They looked weak and listless as they stared at Yu Dazhang.

Others were completely unconscious, as if the anesthesia hadn't worn off yet.

The third floor was the same; it was as if the villa was a hospital ward area. Apart from the first floor, which was used for cooking and dining, all the other spaces were used to house women who had just undergone surgery.

The faint smell of disinfectant in the air stirred a sense of irritation in Yu Dazhang, as if constantly reminding him of a harsh reality:

We're still too late.

So many women have already undergone surgery; this is the last thing he wanted to see.

Yu Dazhang then went to the adjacent villa.

Just as he had guessed, the villas had been connected inside.

This design means that you can go directly to another villa without leaving the villa.

The moment Yu Dazhang stepped into the villa, a strong smell of disinfectant hit him, making him very uncomfortable, as if this place were a hospital.

Even hospitals don't have such a strong disinfectant smell.

Yu Dazhang frowned. He could tell from the smell that this villa was not intended to be used as a hospital ward.

Come to the first floor.

As soon as he stepped into the hall, he saw a row of people squatting down. They were men and women, all with their hands behind their heads, being handcuffed one by one by the police officers.

People were being escorted down the stairs from the second floor.

Yu Dazhang didn't linger and went down the stairs.

Upon reaching the basement level, he went straight to the room inside, where police officers were already stationed. Upon seeing him, they immediately made way for him.

Yu Dazhang pushed open the door and entered the room.

The sight inside the room immediately made his heart tighten. A cold operating table was placed in the center, surrounded by a dazzling array of instruments and tools.

These tools reflected a cold gleam under the light, exuding an unsettling aura.

He slowly walked to the operating table, staring at the empty bed, as if he could see the female victims who had undergone surgery here.

His gaze then fell on the workbench.

Many tools even have labels that show their names and uses.

In vitro fertilization micromanipulation tube, special sampling and preservation tube, oocyte collection device...

Even Yu Dazhang, a layman in medicine, could still understand the purpose of these tools from their names.

No wonder the disinfectant smell in this villa is so strong; it turns out this is where the surgery was actually performed.

He then looked at the next room. In addition to the operating room, there was a laboratory and a pharmacy. Although the place was small, it had everything you needed.

Yu Dazhang is now 100% certain that these trafficked women are being used as surrogates.

But now there's another problem.

Why did Gu Dingwen ultimately offer a million dollars to acquire the young girl?

This amount clearly exceeds the normal price for surrogacy.

Just as he was pondering this question, Team Hua came down from above.

"The situation is under control."

He spoke in a reporting tone:
"This is a five-unit townhouse, all of which have been opened up. Apart from this one, the other four villas are more like hospital wards."
