Hong Kong General: Rebirth of Rage, Rising from Prison

Chapter 192: Blackmailing the police, Wen Jianren is numb!
Mount Kadoorie, Garden Villa.

A cordon has been set up around the entire villa, and colleagues from the forensic department are conducting a careful on-site inspection and taking photos for record keeping.

The forensic doctor also conducted a simple examination of the body at the scene.

"Sir Wen, after a preliminary investigation at the scene, we can confirm that the firearm held by the criminals is a Browning pistol with a caliber of 9*17mm bullets. All eight bodyguards were shot to death. A fierce gun battle took place at the scene."

"According to Doctor Gu from the Forensic Department, the time of death should be around 12:15 at night."

"In addition, there were bullet holes in the study, but no suspicious blood or biological information was found. It is suspected that the criminals used hydrogen peroxide to clean it, and they wore gloves when committing the crime, and wiped off all traces afterwards."

Gao Yanbo, a senior chemist in the Forensic Science Department, reported with a serious expression on his chubby face.

"So, this time, we encountered a group of extremely professional criminals with a high level of anti-reconnaissance awareness!"

Wen Jianren frowned.

When it comes to forensics, Gao Yanbo is an authority.

Dr. Gu Zechen is very professional in the field of forensics.

Such a talented team actually failed to find anything, which is enough to show how terrifying and meticulous these criminals are.

The case we encountered this time was very difficult.

Wen Jianren looked at a police officer next to him and asked, "It is said that the person who reported the case is Liu Yaozu's fiancée. Where is she?"

"Chen Jiaju is in the back garden doing inquiries."

The police officer replied.

Wen Jianren walked downstairs, opened the door and came to the garden at the back.

"Come on, miss, there was a shootout in your house, eight bodyguards were killed, and your fiancé was kidnapped, and you don't know anything?"

"Are you kidding me?"

In the garden, Chan Ka Kui combed his beautiful hair into a mess, looking helpless and angry.

After asking for a long time, Mengna didn't know the answer to any of the questions. No matter how many times he asked, she just said she didn't know, wasn't clear, and didn't understand. There was no valuable information at all, which made him feel annoyed.

“I’m a victim, what do I need to know?”

"If I knew everything, what would I need you police for?"

Mona was questioned repeatedly and retorted dissatisfiedly.

"Ms. Mona, eight bodyguards are dead and your fiancé has been kidnapped. Please cooperate with us."

Chen Jiaju stared at Mona with a stern face and said stubbornly.

"How else can I cooperate?"

Mona spoke coldly to the difficult Chan Ka Kui.

"Later, please come with us and go back to the police station for investigation."

Chen Jiaju was very serious and his tone was stiff.

He had an intuition about solving a case, and his sixth sense told him that this Mona was very suspicious and must be investigated thoroughly.

"Sir, please make it clear to me that I am the victim and the reporter, not the suspect!"

"You have offended me. I can complain to the Public Relations Department about you!"

Mona stared with her eyes wide open, as if she was really wronged, and shouted angrily.

Chen Jiaju wanted to step forward to argue, but was pulled back by Wen Jianren. Wen Jianren whispered, "You have already deducted all the funds for this month. Don't cause any more complaints."

Only then did Chen Jiaju stand aside with a sullen look on his face.

Wen Jianren fixed his eyes on Mengna's face

Although Mona looked haggard and pale, she had a beautiful appearance.

The look she gave him was pitiful, with a hint of grievance, a hint of anger, a hint of worry, and a hint of fear.

Very suitable for the current situation.

It makes people soften their attitude involuntarily.

"Ms. Mona, my colleague's expression just now may not be very accurate, which caused a small misunderstanding."

"We, the police, don't suspect you. We just want to know more about the kidnappers."

"Can you tell me when the kidnappers contacted you and what they wanted?"

Wen Jianren was able to become an inspector at a young age, and his emotional intelligence is much higher than that of Chan Ka-kui.

And he is very good at maneuvering in the police station.

Let’s get to the point in a few words.

"When I returned home, the tragedy had already happened. The kidnappers left a letter in the study."

Mona handed a letter to Wen Jianren. The uneven handwriting on the letter was made up of random cuts from newspapers.

It said, prepare a ransom of five million and wait for a call before tomorrow evening.

When Wen Jianren saw the letter, his expression instantly became nervous. This meant that the police didn't have much time left.

There are currently no clues at the scene.

The easiest and fastest way to catch these kidnappers in such a short time is to arrest them when the ransom is delivered.

Even if only one kidnapper is caught, we can follow the clues and catch all the kidnappers in one fell swoop.

He immediately made a decision and said, "Ms. Mona, from now on, we will monitor and track all your communicators."

"is that OK?"

Mengna nodded and handed the phone to Wen Jianren decisively: "No problem, as long as my fiancé can come back safely, I will cooperate unconditionally."

"Okay, then please, Miss Mona, prepare five million in cash. Once the kidnappers call and demand a ransom, we will act immediately."

"When the ransom is paid, the arrest will be made directly."

Wen Jianren took the phone and handed it to Chen Jiaju, and continued to speak to Mona.

Hearing Wen Jianren's words, Mengna was embarrassed and sighed: "Wen Sri, I can't come up with 5 million ransom for the time being."

"No way, you live in a villa, drive a luxury car, and own a company, but you can't even come up with five million?"

Chen Jiaju looked unconvinced.

"This is all superficial glory. In fact, our funding chain has been broken for a long time, and Liu Yaozu is in debt. We really can't come up with 5 million in cash in a short period of time."

"What's more, all the cash left in the safe was taken away by the kidnappers."

Mona explained helplessly.

Chen Jiaju was clever: "Then use ghost paper. If the kidnappers don't come out to negotiate, we will never know whether the money in the box is real or fake."

"As long as the kidnappers dare to come out to negotiate, they can be arrested."

"You've lost your mind!"

Wen Jianren interrupted immediately and reminded: "Don't forget, the last time the Central and Western District used ghost paper, they were fooled by the kidnappers and ran around half of Hong Kong Island. They ran to the dog farm and were chased by dogs. Everyone was screaming and bitten."

"This time the kidnappers have guns and strong anti-detection awareness. They also have Brother Hao as a precedent, so they are definitely not that easy to fool."

"The money must be real money."

"And we have to raise money in a big way to make the kidnappers believe they can get the money, so that Liu Yaozu will be safer."

Chen Jiaju rubbed his hands and said quickly, "Why don't we apply for some funds from Uncle Biao to tide us over for the time being?"

"Chen Jiaju, is your brain filled with shit?"

Wen Jianren could not help but curse, "Last week, you caught a thief who stole 2,000 yuan, causing more than ten cars to crash on the road, resulting in a loss of hundreds of thousands of yuan."

"Last week, a molester was caught and half of the furniture store was destroyed. He had to pay millions in compensation."

"We are now trying to catch the kidnappers and are preparing to apply for 5 million in funding. Do you think the police station is a money-printing machine?"

Wen Jianren became annoyed when he thought of this. It was unlucky to be in the same group with Chen Jiaju.

The serious crime squad has the highest crime-solving rate, but also the highest destruction rate.

Funding has been insufficient for years, and there is no sign of bonuses or overtime pay, so everyone is complaining.

"Sir Wen, don't yell, it was all an accident. Everything is for the case."

Chen Jiaju argued with a look of apology on his face.

"If you don't cause any more accidents, our Central District won't have to eat coarse food."

Wen Jianren rolled his eyes at Chen Jiaju in annoyance, then slapped the letter in his hand and said, "File the evidence."

After saying that, he looked at Mengna again: "Ms. Mengna, you and Liu Yaozu are co-operators. Five million is not a large sum. You must have a way to raise it, right?"

"I don't have any cash, but I still have my assets. Liu Yaozu once proposed to me and wrote me an agreement that if anything unexpected happened to him, all his assets and properties would be managed by me."

"I can mortgage these properties first in exchange for a ransom of 5 million."

"Wait until your police successfully arrest the kidnappers and rescue Liu Yaozu, then redeem the assets."

Finally getting to the point, Mona took the opportunity to tell the police about her plan, showing her full trust in the police.

In this way, Chen Shixian could get the police's endorsement as he wished and mortgage his assets to the umbrella company in front of the police.

Taking over assets also becomes more reasonable.

It is the easiest and fastest method.

After all, Liu Yaozu wanted to seize Robinson's property back then, but it took him three years to plan and he even married the eldest daughter of the Robinson family before he could slowly embezzle the assets and turn them into reasonable and legal holdings.

It would be much simpler if there were police witnesses.

"Okay, Miss Mona, just go ahead and do it. Throughout the process, our police will secretly protect the safety of you and your property."

Wen Jianren thinks this plan is feasible. For the police, they only need to solve the case and mortgage assets in exchange for ransom. Whether there will be any risks to the company is not within their consideration.

Two hours later, under the secret protection of the police including Wen Jianren and Chen Jiaju.

In the office of Umbrella Security Company, Mona reached an agreement with Chen Shixian to mortgage the Sky Diamond Hotel and its other properties in exchange for a ransom of five million.

Five million was packed in a huge password box. After face-to-face verification and confirmation that the amount was correct, the money belonged to Mona.

Watching Mengna leave the police station under the protection of the police, Qiu Gangao asked worriedly, "Brother Xian, if we exchange the five million for ghost money, aren't we afraid that the police will find out and expose our secret?"

After the cash was verified in person, Mona cooperated with them and replaced the cash with paper money without anyone noticing.

"We have just checked it in person. The money now belongs to Mona. As long as Mona doesn't take it out for inspection again, the police will never think that the money has been switched and turned into paper money for the dead."

"They sent people to use paper money to expose their crimes, but we directed and performed the show ourselves, so what are we afraid of?"

Chen Shixian replied with a smile.

"But the Central District's serious crime solving rate ranks first in Hong Kong Island. That Chen Jiaju just now was very persistent in solving the case. It will be difficult to deal with them if we mess with them."

Qiu Gangao was still worried.

"Don't worry. Having the highest clearance rate doesn't mean every case will be solved. I will let the Central District know that there are always some cases that cannot be solved."

"It can only be sealed and stored in the database, becoming an unsolved case."

Chen Shi's mouth curled up slightly.

Chan Ka-kui is difficult to deal with, but he is too stubborn, which makes him an anomaly in today's police force.

The Royal Police is, after all, a colonial institution.

A policeman can be ruthless, incorruptible, and black and white. It is no problem for him to be a role model or an image.

But if you try to follow through on this approach at work, you will find that it won't work at all and your colleagues and superiors will not like you.

You can only be a police officer your whole life.

When handling a case, it is not enough to just be reckless; one also needs to have methods and be politically conscious.

……

Soon, Wen Jianren, Chen Jiaju and others accompanied Mona and escorted her back to the Jadoorie Villa.

All the bodies in the villa have been removed, and replaced by human-shaped shadows drawn with lime lines and various numbers.

From last night till now, the police have not found any clues and know nothing about the kidnappers. The only way is to wait.

Wait for the kidnapper to call.

The guys in the information technology team have already installed equipment to comprehensively monitor all phone calls and track them at any time.

Mona sat on the sofa with a tired look on her face. A box full of money was placed on the coffee table. Her hair was messy and she looked very pitiful. "Don't worry, Miss Mona. We will do our best to rescue your fiancé."

Wen Jianren assured earnestly.

"Okay, I believe you."

Mona held her forehead and sighed, then nodded weakly.

"Ring ring ring!"

At this moment, the phone in the hall suddenly rang, and the whole living room suddenly fell silent.

Suddenly, everyone's eyes were focused on the phone.

"Ms. Mona, please try to stay calm and extend the time so that we can locate you."

Wen Jianren put his hand on the phone and gave Mona some instructions. Then he gave the technical team a signal before picking up the phone and handing it to Mona.

Mona nodded solemnly, took a deep breath, and answered the phone.

"Ms. Mona, is the five million ready?"

A sharp voice came from the other end of the phone, with a slight electric sound, which was obviously a voice changer.

"I'm ready. How's my fiancé? You didn't hurt him, did you?"

Mona asked anxiously, looking concerned and trying to remain calm.

"Ah, ah, ah!"

Suddenly, a miserable cry came from the other end of the phone. It was Liu Yaozu's voice.

When Mona heard the familiar voice, her heart skipped a beat and she was terrified. She almost thought it was Liu Yaozu who had returned to his soul.

Later I realized that Chen Shixian had brought a video recorder with him at that time, so he must have been recording.

"Okay, please, stop fighting."

Mengna looked horrified and asked quickly, "Tell me, where should I pay the ransom?"

On the other end of the phone, Chen Shixian held a voice changer and said in a skilled and fierce tone: "At 12 o'clock tonight, you take the money to the Hung Hom Cross-Harbour Tunnel. I will contact you then. Don't bring the police, otherwise, you will be ready to collect the body of your fiancé!"

"Okay, I promise you, you must ensure the safe return of my fiancé."

Mona emphasized loudly, with outstanding acting skills.

But all she got from the other end of the line was a blank tone, and the call was hung up.

"Have you tracked it?"

Chen Jiaju turned his head nervously and asked the technician.

"No, the other party is very cunning. He uses a satellite phone and we can't lock his location."

The guy from the Information Technology Department answered dejectedly.

"Notify the traffic team to cooperate, have the guys get their equipment, and set up an ambush in the Hung Hom Tunnel."

"As soon as the kidnappers show up, we'll catch them all!"

Wen Jianren is full of confidence.

Idiot, why would anyone choose to trade in a tunnel? If you block both ends, wouldn't that be like catching a turtle in a jar?
But what Wen Jianren didn't know was that Chen Shixian was trying to lure someone into a trap.

Twelve o'clock in the evening.

Mona followed the instructions and drove a red BMW sedan to the Hung Hom Tunnel with the money.

"Report Sir Wen, we have arrived at the designated location."

The police lay in ambush and reported the situation via walkie-talkie.

A tight net has been set up at both ends of the tunnel, waiting for Wen Jianren's order to take action immediately.

Mona's car drove into the tunnel.

Wen Jianren and Chen Jiaju were following behind, not too far away.

At this time, in front of the tunnel, a silver car was sliding slowly in the tunnel at a snail's pace, which immediately aroused everyone's vigilance.

The entire tunnel was eerily quiet.

"Ring ring ring!"

The phone suddenly rang and Mona picked it up.

"Ms. Mona, do you see the silver car in front? Get out and put the money in the trunk of the car."

Without any hesitation, Mona got out of the car, picked up the password box on the passenger seat, followed the gliding silver sedan, and threw the password box into the trunk.

"Sir Wen, someone is found in the driver's seat, it must be the kidnapper!"

Chen Jiaju took a telescope and saw half of the head sticking out of the cab, and reported it immediately.

As Mona put the money into the trunk, the car gradually drove downhill and the speed gradually increased.

"Great, guys, let's take action and catch this ignorant kidnapper!"

Wen Jianren gave an order.

"Yes, sir!"

Things were going smoothly. As long as the kidnappers were caught, the whereabouts of the hostages could be found.

“Swish, swish!”

At both ends of the tunnel, several police cars quickly surrounded the vehicle from the front and back.

Traffic police also controlled the traffic flow and blocked all irrelevant vehicles outside the tunnel.

Chen Jiaju drove his car and chased after it. He swung his car like a dragon, turned the front of the car, stepped on the accelerator, and crashed into the silver car, forcing it to stop.

"Police, get out of the car!"

Wen Jianren, with a smug look on his face and a gun in his hand, immediately jumped out of the car and pointed the gun at the driver, who was wrapped tightly and moving stiffly in the cab.

He walked slowly towards the car, getting closer and closer.

Mona watched this scene, reached into her pocket, and gently pressed the miniature remote control given to her by Chen Shixian.

"boom!"

There was a loud noise inside the car, similar to a gunshot.

"Bang bang bang!"

The nervous Wen Jianren and Chen Jiaju opened fire without any hesitation. There was a burst of fierce gunfire and bullets flew madly towards the cab.

Immediately afterwards, Mona pressed the second button.

"boom!"

The next second, there was a loud explosion. Wen Jianren and Chen Jiaju's faces suddenly changed. There was a ringing in their ears and a dazzling fire in front of their eyes. Then, the two were blown away by the shock wave of the explosion and fell heavily to the ground.

The entire silver car was engulfed in flames.

"So careless?"

Wen Jianren and Chen Jiaju shook their dizzy heads and looked at the scene in front of them with dull eyes, completely dumbfounded.

What the hell, the kidnappers died with the five million? !
Don’t want money anymore?!
Play with them!

It's a bit fantastical.

How do I write this report?

Mona's face was pale and blank, tears dripping down like beads. She covered her mouth and shouted in fear: "Where is my man, where is my man!"

At this time, outside the tunnel, Chen Shixian was sitting in the car listening to the explosions in the tunnel, and smiled disdainfully: "Dear Sirs, I hope you like the script-killing show I prepared for you!"

After tonight, all of Liu Yaozu's hotels, casinos, and mistresses would legally become his.

The police will pay for their own stupidity!
Five million, just treat it as the money he donated to those foreigners, and collect some interest from him.

One o'clock in the morning, Central District Crime Squad.

In the basement of the police station, the fire of the burnt silver sedan had been put out, and the entire car had been towed back to the police station and parked downstairs.

Gao Yanbo, along with his colleagues from the Identification and Forensic Medicine Department, carefully collected evidence with tweezers, brushes, evidence bags, etc.

In the cab, a figure had been burned beyond recognition. The explosion also reduced the body to broken limbs, with only some tissues stained on the seat.

It looks horrible.

The young forensic doctor and the forensic scientist kept retching and couldn't help feeling nauseous.

But I still force myself to be energetic and work diligently.

After the explosion, as well as the use of fire extinguishers and water, it was basically very unlikely to find any useful physical evidence.

Forensic pathologist Gu Zechen, wearing a mask, carefully searched the body parts and put several teeth into the evidence bag.

To him, the only thing that has value and can speak now is this corpse.

Wen Jianren looked haggard, his face was blue and purple, and he looked as ugly as if he had eaten shit.

He cursed: "Damn it, damn kidnapper, are you sick? Are you trying to commit suicide?"

Now that the five million is gone, the kidnappers have become a roasted lamb.

The longer the time goes, the lower the chance of Liu Yaozu's survival.

A few hours later, it was daylight.

Gu Zechen strode in with the autopsy report and pushed open Wen Jianren's office in a hurry.

"Sir Wen, something's happening."

"How about it, have you found out the identity information of the kidnapper?" Wen Jianren stood up from his chair with an excited expression and looked at Gu Zechen.

Most of the recent frequent kidnapping, extortion and robbery cases were committed by the Big Circle Boys and retired soldiers.

Many of these people have criminal records.

The information has been entered into the police station, and it may be possible to find out through comparison.

Gu Zechen shook his head, sighed, and placed the document in front of Wen Jianren: "This is the report from Gao Sir, and my autopsy report."

"Based on the bone age, tooth condition, and treatment registration information from the dentistry, after comprehensive analysis, this person is most likely Liu Yaozu himself!"

"what?"

Wen Jianren's expression changed, his eyes widened in disbelief. He quickly flipped through the information in the report and slumped in his chair.

Teeth are the hardest bones in the entire human body. Even after explosions and fires, their properties are difficult to change, especially after dental treatments. They have generally been compared and there will be no mistakes, just like a person's ID card.

His whole body was numb.

This means that the police were completely fooled by the kidnappers and the operation was a complete failure.

The money and the hostages are all gone.

Moreover, it was the police who fired first, at the hostages...

This action will become a typical example, a complete negative teaching material!

Now he began to suspect that this was not a kidnapping case at all, but a revenge killing. Otherwise, which kidnapper would be so cruel that he didn't even want money, but only wanted Liu Yaozu to die! ?
Soon after the police confirmed the identity, they notified Mona to come to the police station to identify the body.

Mona came to the police station, and this time she brought lawyer Ou Yongen with her.

Two beauties walked in side by side, one was weak and charming, unable to take care of herself, and the other was a professional and elegant legal lady.

As the two walked into the police station, the entire space instantly lit up, attracting the attention of many police officers.

After Mona finished identifying the body and completing the formalities, she burst into tears and looked extremely heartbroken.

"Ms. Mona, please accept my condolences. We, the police, deeply regret the death of Mr. Liu Yaozu."

Wen Jianren spoke to comfort her.

Mona just kept sobbing and didn't say anything.

Ou Yongen said with a serious expression: “Sir, I’m afraid that it’s not enough for the police to just express regret.”

"Because of the police's mistake, the hostage died and five million in cash was lost."

"I think the police should bear the corresponding responsibility."

"My client will sue the court to protect his own rights!"
