Tian Chunda told Xue Zhicheng, you must immediately ask your subordinates to execute an order.
Xue Zhicheng took out his mobile phone and asked: What order?
Tian Chunda said: Let them go to all Tong Ruide's apprentices immediately and ask them if Tong Ruide recently asked them to help catch the thief? Have they been caught?
Xue Zhicheng immediately gave orders to his subordinates on his mobile phone. He then looked at Tian Chunda with admiration and said: "Teacher, it is better to think far ahead. If Tong Ruide wants to catch the thief and he is weak, he will definitely mobilize his apprentices to assist him." Tian Chunda once gave a lecture in the city's criminal investigation cadre training class , so Xue Zhicheng called him teacher.
Tian Chunda replied: "Don't wear a high hat on me." Then he said: "Do you have any cigarettes? Give me one."
Xue Zhicheng quickly handed over a cigarette. Tian Chunda took the cigarette and took a look at it with a smile, "Your cigarette is not bad." Xue Zhicheng quickly took out a lighter and lit the cigarette for the teacher.
Tong Ruide lives on the first floor of the county party committee's family building. He was a little surprised to see the detectives visiting, but he still politely invited them into the living room.
Xue Zhicheng smiled and introduced Tian Chunda: "This is Tian Chunda, the deputy captain of the Municipal Criminal Investigation Detachment and the leader of the serious crime team, and also my teacher."
Tong Ruide hurriedly shook hands with Tian Chunda and said hello.
Xue Zhicheng introduced Hao Dong again: "This is Hao Dong, a member of the serious crime team."
Tong Ruide shook hands with Hao Dong again and said hello.
After everyone sat down, Tian Chunda looked at Tong Ruide and said, "We are here for a routine matter and want to know something about the situation."
Tong Ruide said: "I will cooperate. However, please speak softly. My mother has a heart disease and is lying in bed. I don't want her to be frightened."
Tian Chunda nodded: "Let's talk in a low voice." He asked in a low voice: "Are you two alone at home now?"
Tong Ruide replied in a low voice: "My wife has taken the child back to her parents' home."
Tian Chunda asked again: "Do you know about the theft in the office of Secretary Xiao of the County Party Committee?"
Tong Ruide shook his head: "I don't understand this situation."
Tian Chunda thought to himself, it seems that Tong Ruide doesn't want to tell the truth. The criminal police have already investigated Qu Yunxiang, the cleaner of the county party committee office building. She said that when she was mopping the floor in the corridor, she heard Tong Ruide walking into Secretary Xiao's office and screaming: "What? It's stolen!" Then she heard something inside the room. There was the sound of things being packed, and the room might have been messed up by a thief.
But now Tong Ruide said that he didn't know about the theft of Secretary Xiao's office. Tian Chunda did not expose him immediately and asked again: "Did you go out in the middle of the night during the days before and after the Lantern Festival?" He asked this because the medical examiner told him that Xu Chuan's death occurred during the days before and after the Lantern Festival.
Tong Ruide shook her head again, "I was sleeping at home and didn't go out."
Tian Chunda felt that Tong Ruide didn't want to tell the truth, so he asked again: "Where is the car you are driving now?"
Tong Ruide said: "In the garage behind the county party committee compound."
Tian Chunda said: "Take us to see it."
Before getting into the police car, Tian Chunda whispered a few words into Hao Dong's ear, but he did not get in the car.
After the police car drove away, Hao Dong returned to Tong Ruide's house. He came to Tong Ruide's mother's bedroom door, knocked on the door and whispered, "Aunt Tong, I am a police officer and I want to ask you something."
Aunt Tong said in the room: "Please come in."
Hao Dong walked into the room, sat beside Aunt Tong's bed, and said softly: "Auntie, may I ask, did Master Tong Ruide go out at night before and after the Lantern Festival?"
Aunt Tong replied: "I don't sleep well and often wake up at night. I heard that Rhett went out during the two days before and after the Lantern Festival and didn't come back until dawn."
Hao Dong asked: "Then you didn't ask him what he did when he went out at night?"
Aunt Tong shook her head and said, "I didn't ask. Rhett drove for the county party secretary and was required to be strict with his words. He never told us about public matters and didn't let us ask. But I think he might have gone out during those two nights. I'm checking with Secretary Xiao on festival safety. Aren't we asking for strengthened festival security now?"
"Well. I have nothing else to do. Madam, please have a good rest." Hao Dong said goodbye and left.
Tian Chunda and others went to the garage in the backyard of the county party committee and began to inspect the Audi car driven by Tong Ruide. When checking the trunk of the car, Tian Chunda saw a box containing a set of wrenches. When I opened it, I saw that there should be five large and small wrenches inside, but one large one was missing.
Tian Chunda asked Tong Ruide: "Why is there one wrench missing in this box?"
Tong Ruide replied: "I lost a handful while repairing the car on the road."
Tian Chunda asked again: "How long has it been missing?"
"It's been a few months."
"Did you repair all this car?"
Tong Ruide replied: "If there is a temporary problem on the road, I will repair it. There will be a dedicated repairman for daily maintenance."
"Is the maintenance master here now?"
"It seems to be in the duty room." Tong Ruide pointed to a room on the right.
Tian Chunda walked to the room, knocked on the door and went in. He saw a master in his 50s sitting indoors smoking. His hands were rough, as if he had been working a lot. He asked kindly: "Master, what is your surname?"
The master replied: "My surname is Wang. What can I do for you?"
"I want to ask you a question. Do you maintain Secretary Xiao's Audi car on a daily basis?"
"Yes, I am responsible for daily maintenance."
"You also use the set of adjustable wrenches in the car, right?"
"Yeah, I use them every time I repair this car. Five of them in total."
"When we inspected the car just now, we found that an adjustable wrench was missing. When did it go missing?"
"I still have all five wrenches on the car I repaired before the Spring Festival. I haven't repaired the car since the Spring Festival, so I don't know the condition of the wrenches."
After leaving the repairman's duty room, Tian Chunda received a mobile phone report from a criminal police officer: "Team Leader Tian, I learned a situation when I was interrogating Tong Ruide's apprentice named Liu Ping. Liu Ping once assisted Tong Ruide at the County Commercial Bureau the night before the Lantern Festival. A thin and short thief was caught in the yard while he was climbing up the stairs to steal."
Tian Chunda asked: "What happened next? How did Tong Ruide deal with the thief?"
"Liu Ping said that Tong Ruide let him go home after catching the thief, and he didn't know how the master dealt with the thief."
Just after the phone call, Tian Chunda saw Hao Dong coming back. He reported to Tian Chunda the situation of his conversation with Aunt Tong. After hearing this, Tian Chunda said: "Bring Tong Ruide back to the county public security bureau for questioning immediately."
Seeing that he was taken into the public security bureau, Tong Ruide was a little nervous, but after all, he had been a scout and his nerves were relatively tough. He quickly calmed down and showed a very calm look. Entering the interrogation room of the County Public Security Bureau, Tian Chunda, Xue Zhicheng, and Hao Dong sat behind the table, and Tong Ruide sat about one meter in front of the table.
Tian Chunda looked at Tong Ruide and asked, "Do you know why I brought you here?"
Tong Ruide shook her head, "I don't know."
"You have been a scout and driven for the leader. You are well-informed. You should know this?"
Tong Ruide shook her head again, "I really don't know, just ask whatever you want."
"I think you'd better explain the problem honestly, so that we don't waste time and breath."
"I've said everything that needs to be said!"
"No, you didn't say the key issues. Even if you did, some of them weren't true."
"I've said everything I need to say. If you don't believe it, there's nothing I can do about it."
"If you really don't want to say it, I will tell it for you. After the theft in Secretary Xiao's office, you did the following things: First, you concealed it, or someone asked you to conceal the theft. In this matter, you You lied. This has been proved by someone. Second, you take action, or others ask you to take action to catch the thief. On the night before the Lantern Festival, you asked your apprentices to set up controls in some office buildings to assist you in catching the thief. Here we are. In the middle of the night, your apprentice Liu Ping found a thief near the office building of the County Commerce Bureau. You rushed over and caught the thief. His name was Xu Chuan. You asked Liu Ping to go home to sleep and escorted Xu Chuan away, but Xu Chuan escaped on the way. You So you used a special trick and hit him with a wrench, hitting him in the back of the head and killing him. You transported his body to the countryside in a car and threw it into a sewer. Then you threw away the murder weapon, the adjustable wrench, or Buried. Then you came to Xu Chuan's home and searched for his stolen goods. One of them was very important and had to be found and taken back. Are these things I said true? "
Tong Ruide's face turned pale, lowered her head and remained silent.
"You'd better tell the truth honestly."
"I, I have nothing to say." Tong Ruide lowered her head and muttered softly.
