At four o'clock in the afternoon, the winter rain has not stopped and the cold wind is still biting.
However, the police force in the Huaguo Mountain Scenic Area has reached nearly a thousand people. Each team consists of five people. Basically, there are more than 200 teams scattered throughout the mountains and plains.
Of course, there are drone teams to survey places with steep hillsides or inaccessible places. However, in the past hour, five drones have been blown off course by strong winds, hit tree branches, and crashed.
The tracking dogs supported from Changming could only be sent to search hundreds of caves in this weather.
Unfortunately, despite all these arrangements, the hiding place of the two suspects, Shi Daguo and Du Shuqing, was still not found.
Have they really escaped from Huaguo Mountain?
The B&B restaurant temporarily commandeered by the police, all the experts involved in the tracking, regardless of their positions, gathered here again for a meeting.
At the beginning of the conference room, Xia Zhongqing, as the on-site conductor, first shared the good news with them. Zhou Cuilan's daughter Zhou Xinyu had woken up in the hospital. She had no serious physical injuries, but was mentally unstable and unable to communicate with her.
Then, he pointed to a hanging map of the Huaguo Mountain Scenic Area and reported the results of this afternoon's actions to everyone present.
Xu Zheng did not listen carefully, because after so many police investigations, the result was still zero, but what Xia Zhongqing said was how hard it was for everyone, and how many comrades had been harmed to varying degrees...
The Huaguoshan scenic spot is not big. In the afternoon, the police searched even the places where they could hide halfway up the mountain.
Xu Zheng looked at the map and found that besides Gao Laozhuang, there were other B&Bs in the scenic area. However, these B&Bs had also been searched several times by the police. If there was one place in the Huaguo Mountain Scenic Area that had not been searched, it was the Dasheng Lake. Waiting for a few lakes.
This kind of mountain spring lake has an unfathomable bottom. There are B&Bs nearby and there are many cameras. There is no trace of Shi Daguo and the two of them. Moreover, these tracking experts have already walked around the lake and found no abnormal traces. .
Xia Zhongqing frowned and looked at everyone's increasingly frustrated expressions. He was anxious but couldn't rush them, and felt very uncomfortable.
At this time, someone proposed that the tracking direction should be changed. The focus should not continue to be on Huaguo Mountain, but should be placed on Haizhou or even Dongshan Province, which is fifty kilometers to the north.
Some people also proposed to temporarily stop the search and create an illusion of looseness inside and tightness outside, allowing Shi Daguo and others to emerge on their own.
Some people also suggested that the police should fully announce on the Internet, TV, and regional mobile phone text messages that the police rescued Gao Xinyu, and then urged Shi Daguo and others to surrender. Because the child was not dead, their crimes would be much smaller.
At this time, they have to take the gamble themselves. Surrendering will reduce the possibility of eating peanuts. It depends on whether they can seize this opportunity...
Xu Zheng didn't respond. He sat quietly in the corner and listened to everyone's speeches. Not to mention, the suggestions put forward by these people were pretty good. If there was no better way, they could be adopted.
Although he did not participate in the discussion, the seven or eight tracking experts and Haizhou City criminal investigation experts present looked at him from time to time, and Xu Zheng naturally felt their gazes.
I also know what they mean, that no one can hold on anymore. If they continue to hold on, let alone getting dark, everyone’s body and bones will be damaged by the winter rain.
It can be predicted that more than half of the people present will catch a cold tomorrow.
Xia Zhongqing looked around at the people who were debating, and once again felt deeply powerless. This is sometimes the case with eucalyptus. When they encounter a bottleneck and still have no clues after changing many directions, everyone will be disappointed. After discussions, they are all the same. nonsense.
But no one wants to admit that they are a loser.
He finally set his sights on Xu Zheng, hoping that he could step forward at this time and find a new direction of investigation.
Xu Zheng naturally felt the meaning in Xia Zhongqing's eyes. Generally speaking, it was very pleasant to get along with Xia Bureau today, so he had to pretend to cough twice and prepare to speak.
"Ahem..."
With these two fake coughs, the entire B&B restaurant fell silent. Everyone looked at him. Most of his colleagues looked expectantly.
I hope he can provide new clues and catch the suspect as soon as possible. This job is too damn hard.
Of course, some people disagreed and felt that Xu Zheng would not be smarter than him...
Xu Zheng had a panoramic view of everyone's expressions. He did not expect that his prestige was so high. Two coughs made everyone stop the discussion immediately. Without any nonsense, he said directly: "There will be no results from our discussion like this.
I suggest to the Xia Bureau that we take a break for half an hour to let the comrades recharge their batteries and summarize the results of the discussion before continuing the discussion. What do you think? "
Everyone didn't expect that Xu Zheng was silent for a long time and made such a suggestion. It was nonsense. If it weren't for their kindness, a few people would really embarrass him on the spot.
Xia Zhongqing was also very confused, but he felt that Xu Zheng was not the one who made this decision casually. He smiled slightly and said loudly: "Since Director Xu said to let us all rest for half an hour, I think it's okay. Let's deal with personal matters first. Hygiene issue.
I saw that some people's faces were turning red. This is not good. A living person cannot be choked to death by peeing. "
The leader made a joke, and the comrades smiled kindly, and one after another someone went out to put out water or get a cup of hot water.
Looking at Xu Zheng again, he took out his mobile phone at this time. First, he briefly looked at all the messages, but did not reply to them one by one. Instead, he found the work group that Xia Zhongqing had temporarily joined today and sent a message, "Just now I discovered that there are two hidden cameras in our restaurant now.
I suspect that the boss here installed it secretly before.
Everyone should do whatever they are supposed to do, as long as there is nothing special about them. "
Because it is a work group, all members will be notified when there is news in the group. Some people were surprised when they saw Xu Zheng's speech, so don't rush to put a question mark. Soon there were more than a dozen question marks.
Until Xia Zhongqing typed and asked, "Director Xu, what are you doing?"
Xu Zheng explained: "That's right, have you ever thought that the whereabouts of the two suspects may be in Gaolaozhuang, or even in our B&B!"
Dark under the lamp!
Everyone is smart and experts in criminal investigation. They quickly understood the meaning of Xu Zheng's words. Yes, if someone from the owner of Gaolaozhuang B&B discovered that Shi Daguo and the two had murdered Gao Cuilan.
If we intercept these two people halfway, we will most likely succeed and no one will know about it.
After all, it was around five o'clock in the morning when the two of Shi Daguo left Gaolaozhuang. It was still dark at that time, and the dark environment was very convenient for these local B&B owners to travel.
For example, Pu Lei heard the sound of Gao Cuilan and Shi Daguo doing business at night, so could the neighbor on Gao Cuilan's right also heard it, or maybe someone else wanted to have a tryst with Gao Cuilan at night and happened to see the threesome. ..
Xu Zheng continued to send his conjecture, "If I were the owner of Gao Laozhuang B&B, I would definitely know that two men moved into Gao Cuilan's house two days ago, and the weather turned bad yesterday, so she was the only woman in Gao Cuilan's B&B.
If someone has a private relationship with Gao Cuilan, then at this time he will definitely worry about whether his woman will put a hat on him. Do you think it is possible for him to secretly go to the woman's house? "
Someone quickly replied, "I have to go. Gao Cuilan is in her thirties and her flowers are in full bloom, and she looks like the kind of person who attracts bees and butterflies. If I were that man, I wouldn't worry. "
"That's right, if she is my woman, even if she is the kind of woman who gets what she wants, I don't want her to spend one night with two strange men."
"I checked the information of more than a dozen B&Bs in Gaolaozhuang. In addition to Gao Xiulan, there is also an aunt at the west end of the village. Most of the B&B owners are couples. They want to come here secretly.
You must wait until your wife is asleep before you dare to come, right? "
Then several people helped Xu Zheng to add conjectures, but these were not what he wanted. He continued to speak, "Let me assume that the owner of the B&B we are recruiting now, his home is located opposite Gao Cuilan's home, and he must be very familiar with the situation at her home. familiar.
As far as I know, the surveillance camera at the door of this house is broken, just like the one at Gao Cuilan's house. So you said he took advantage of the darkness and ran to the other side quickly?
Is it difficult for us to discover? "
The B&Bs in Gaolaozhuang are basically located on the east and west sides of the South and North Mountain Road. The distance between the B&Bs on the opposite side is no more than ten meters. Therefore, the neighbor's surveillance may not be able to capture the person running to Gao Cuilan's house.
Xu Zheng discovered that the position of the dark shadow of Shi Daguo or Du Shuqing in the early morning was the corner of the wall captured by Gao Cuilan's neighbor's camera.
At this time, Xia Zhongqing sent a message, "Director Xu, please stop explaining your thinking to us. Just tell us what to do next, right?"
"That's right, Director Xu, let's arrest the person first, and everything else will be easy to discuss."
"Director Xu, don't explain to us. It's a waste of time. Let's just arrest the B&B owner and interrogate him directly."
"..."
Xu Zheng looked at the guys who were obviously much more active than before, but this scene was a bit weird. The policemen were not resting, chatting on their mobile phones, and he thought they were all using TikTok, "Well, since everyone trusts Me, then I will make my own suggestions.
First, let’s search Gao Laozhuang again. This time we are not looking for living people, but for dead people. We have to check the refrigerator, washing machine, cloakroom, under the bed, and even the toilet. Yes, that’s right, the suspect may be arrested. Dismember the body.
Second, ask the owners of the B&Bs in Gaolaozhuang again. Let’s do this. Bureau Xia and I will personally inquire about this matter.
Third, after checking these B&Bs, everyone will search suspicious places within one mile of Gao Laozhuang. For example, if there is a puddle somewhere, is there someone buried in this puddle?
For example, is there a hole under a certain maple leaf?
For example, does a certain tree have a tree hole?
...."
Xu Zheng finally concluded: "My idea may not be right, but you must not be suspicious when performing tasks, but do your best to investigate.
If there is no good news from this operation, then I will go back home directly and no longer suffer the cold wind and rain. "
Xia Zhongqing quickly typed a reply, "Looking at what Director Xu said, no matter whether the suspect is found or not, we can clearly see your efforts and remember them in our hearts. I would like to thank you all again for your hard work today."
