Animal Detective

Chapter 5 Seeking Rewards: Rewards are a Must

Shen Xin reached out and patted the wolfhound's head.

It squinted its eyes and rubbed against it, looking quite content.

"Good boy, lie down."

Shen Xin called softly, and the wolfhound obediently lay down on the ground, its large tail sweeping back and forth.

Yao Wensheng and the others exchanged glances, all seeing the shock in each other's eyes.

"Shen Xin, do you know this dog?" Zhang Jian asked blankly.

"I do not know."

Shen Xin shook his head.

Zhang Jian asked in surprise, "Then why does it listen to you so well?"

It came over with a soft whimper and a wagging tail.

Shen Xin shrugged and said, "I don't know, but I've always been particularly popular with cats and dogs since I was little. No matter how fierce a dog is, it will come over as soon as I call it."

That's how Da Mei is; she's fierce to everyone, but she treats herself differently.

Considering that amazing icon, it might truly be a talent.

"Maybe this dog is obedient." A policeman behind him was a little skeptical and subconsciously reached out to touch it as well.

Before he could even touch it, the wolfhound on the ground suddenly turned its head and let out a whimper.

Startled, he quickly withdrew his hand, looking embarrassed.

"Amazing." Yao Wensheng gave a thumbs up and said, "Never mind why, anyway, Xiao Shen has been a great help. Let's go, let's get started."

With a wave of his hand, he led the way to the roller shutter door.

Shen Xin followed.

The wolfhound followed obediently beside me, without barking.

Yao Wensheng peered through the window and then described the situation inside.

He found the right place and saw quite a few electric vehicles.

There is no doubt that since the other party has figured out a reliable and secure way to steal, it is impossible that they only stole a dozen or so vehicles.

The factory is not large. Besides some electric vehicles, there are also a lot of tools and miscellaneous items, and there is a gantry crane above.

It may have originally been a small processing plant.

There was an elevated second floor deep inside, and Yao Wensheng suspected that there might be people inside, so he warned everyone to be careful.

The current situation is that he saw three people playing cards together, and their attention was not on this side.

"Let's move out." Yao Wensheng glanced at the crowd, noting that they had the numerical advantage.

Zhang Jian stepped forward, took out his toolbox, and unlocked the door.

The roller shutter door is electric and can only be opened from the inside, but there is a small door on the side for people to pass through, which is currently locked.

Zhang Jian opened this door.

I couldn't see how he did it; it only took a few seconds before I heard a click, and it opened.

Shen Xin nodded secretly; this was a truly exceptional skill.

After Yao Wensheng notified the others via walkie-talkie, he made a hand gesture, and Zhang Jian suddenly pushed open the door, and everyone filed in.

Shen Xin was the last one.

When they rushed in, the three people playing cards had already been pinned to the ground.

Zhang Jian rushed up to the second floor, glanced around, and shook his head at Yao Wensheng.

"Speak, who is Fan Jie?" Yao Wensheng pressed a baton against the head of a suspect and questioned him sternly.

According to Tian Yongjun's confession, the owner of this den was named Fan Jie.

"not me."

The three young men were clearly frightened and shook their heads in panic.

At this moment, Zhang Jian, who was going downstairs, turned his gaze and noticed a small cubicle in the corner of the factory.

It looks like a toilet.

He approached, carrying a baton.

Just then, the cubicle door was suddenly kicked open, and a figure rushed out, shoving Zhang Jian hard before running towards the back door deep inside the factory.

"Stop!" Li Dongsheng shouted from the side and took off chasing after him.

Zhang Jian, who was pushed down, crashed hard into the shelf behind him.

With a thud and a muffled groan, he collapsed to the ground in pain.

The impact was quite forceful, and the shelf was high, so the center of gravity was unstable, and he actually knocked it forward and fell down.

A three-meter-high iron frame with things on it; if it were to fall, it would definitely be quite heavy.

Shen Xin happened to be standing nearby. As soon as he saw the shelf about to fall, he quickly pulled Zhang Jian out.

With a loud crash, the iron frame collapsed to the ground, sending dust flying.

"Captain Zhang, are you alright?" Shen Xin asked anxiously.

Zhang Jian's face turned pale, and he shook his head, still shaken.

He stared fixedly at the metal frame in front of him. If Shen Xin hadn't pulled him up, he would have been crushed underneath.

Everyone present was quite frightened.

Yao Wensheng walked over quickly, his face full of tension.

"I'm fine."

Zhang Jian groped his way to his feet, rubbing his lower back, and gestured for them to hurry up and chase after the fleeing man.

There's no need to chase after them anymore.

Li Dongsheng locked the other person's arm behind his back and pulled him back.

The remaining people checked again to make sure there was no one else in the factory before they felt relieved.

"Zhang Jian, you really have to thank Shen Xin this time. This iron frame is no light thing; if it had fallen on you, you would have been in big trouble." Yao Wensheng kicked the iron frame but couldn't budge it, feeling a wave of fear.

Nobody wants to see their colleague get hurt.

Zhang Jian's expression was somewhat unnatural.

Not long ago, he was picking on Shen Xin.

"Director Yao, what are you saying? I'm right here, of course I have to lend a hand," Shen Xin said preemptively, not thinking there was anything wrong with it.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian felt even more embarrassed.

"Shen Xin, thank you." He forced a smile and thanked him.

He wasn't the outgoing type; he was usually serious and often had a cold expression. He said thank you, but didn't say anything more.

Shen Xin quickly said no need, and seeing Zhang Jian's extreme embarrassment, he took the initiative to walk away and help others.

Yao Wensheng patted Zhang Jian on the shoulder and sighed, "You, you need to take it easy. After all, you're getting older. How are you? Is your back really okay?"

Zhang Jian shook his head, looking at Shen Xin with a somewhat complicated expression.

"Xiao Shen is not bad." Yao Wensheng saw Zhang Jian's reaction, smiled and praised him, and then said, "It's not easy for the station to have a newcomer, so you should take good care of him. I remember Xiao Shen said he wanted to be a criminal police officer in the future. You are a veteran, so you should mentor him."

Zhang Jian didn't say anything, thought for a while, and then started working.

The man who escaped was Fan Jie.

He squatted on the ground, defiantly remaining silent.

Seeing that he couldn't get any information out of him, Yao Wensheng waved his hand, telling Zhang Jian to take the man back first and ask him slowly.

Shen Xin stayed behind to help preserve evidence at the scene.

"Damn it, we might have caught a big fish this time." Yao Wensheng pulled out an account book from the second floor.

The record was very clear. Yao Wensheng roughly counted and found that there were over a hundred electric vehicles that had passed through the hands of this group.

They didn't just steal in Yunlin Subdistrict; they stole all over the city before finally returning to Yunlin Subdistrict.

"This case must be worth several hundred thousand yuan, right?" Li Dongsheng exclaimed in astonishment.

Yao Wensheng nodded, then pointed to the ledger with a beaming smile and said, "Look, the earliest record is May 7th, so they've been stealing for over a month. For so long, other units couldn't catch them, but we did. Shouldn't we take the credit?"

"Little Shen, you're a lucky charm!"

Yao Wensheng's eyes crinkled into crescent moons with laughter.

If Shen Xin hadn't accidentally discovered the truck while looking for the cat, the Yunlin Police Station would probably have ended up like other units, finding nothing in the end.

"We must commend you! We absolutely must commend you!"
