The next day, Wang Dengming prepared to continue interrogating Qijeroko.
Wilson suddenly came to the police station. Wang Dengming thought he was here about the painting. Unexpectedly, he was here to bail out Professor Deang, Chijieroko, and his companion, April, nicknamed Crooked Nose. moon)
This guy named himself April, which is interesting.
"Chief, I vouch for my character. Professor De'ang is a biology professor and explorer who came to Los Angeles. He has been my friend for many years. He has also published several books. You can take a look. He is a serious person, not what you imagined." It is not allowed by law to target someone who is digging for gold. I know it, and so does the professor. I think you have arrested the wrong person, my sergeant."
Professor De'ang, with thin hair, about forty years old, a little stooped, claimed to be a senior professor and doctoral supervisor at a university in Los Angeles. He didn't call pheasant, and Wang Dengming couldn't do anything to him. However, after being locked up for one night, he was still need.
Director Fedeli meant that the town was the last stop and supply depot for people going north. People going north would most likely stay in the town for one night. The task he gave Wang Dengming was to pay attention to All suspicious persons, especially those who want to go to Dusk Dry Valley, to prevent lawless elements from eroding American property. He emphasized: registration, surveillance, tracking, and finding out the truth. He did not say that people must be arrested or imprisoned.
He arrested the person just to go through the procedures in order to quickly ask for something useful, but this Qijeroko was really crazy and didn't take Wang Dengming seriously at all, which made Wang Dengming angry. That guy is so outrageous.
Judging from the fact that the guys brought by the three of them were definitely not taking risks, they were definitely digging things.
With the first batch, there will be a second batch and a third batch
With so many people going there, if there is gold there, it will definitely be found by these people. Then, the government can save a lot of exploration fees and just follow these gold thieves.
Fedeli's idea is surprisingly similar to Tutankhamun's little plan. Wang Dengming disagrees with whether this method is feasible. This is simply a waste of police power. Who can you follow? Come one after another? .
He had a doubt. Fedeli said that this matter was classified as a first-class secret, but why was such a confidential matter so popular in the city? He even suspected that someone deliberately let it out. Who did it and for what motive? I don't know the wind blowing.
Wang Dengming learned from Fedeli that the prospectors sent from New York to Muku Valley were still in the area before they came out. They had been in Muku Valley for more than two months.
The archaeological team is still in Makusu Valley, how did the golden wind blow?
This is an interesting enigmatic question.
Wang Dengming had objections, and Fedeli warned him that the decisions of the higher-ups were not something that a small police officer like you could speculate on. Just do whatever you are told and obey the orders.
Okay, then I will obey the order.
"Mayor, if you come forward in person, of course I will give you a favor and a deposit. Just think about it, two thousand for each person. How about it?"
"Of course, no problem. Thank you, Sheriff. You are really a wise and enlightened Sheriff."
Wei NaXun led the people he bailed out happily. Butcher Gordon Bu was unwilling to give in and asked: "Boss, are you going to let them go like this?" "
"Of course not, butcher Gordon Bu, now it's up to you. Let me ask you, how many people do you have under your command?"
"About thirty or so."
"Send your people and follow them. Just don't lose them."
"That's what I think too. I'll make arrangements right away."
Tu Gebu left in a hurry.
Wang Dengming made a cup of strong tea, sat on a chair, trimmed his fingernails, and kept turning in his head.
Outside the door, Jones Medi walked in. She had slept in today and it was already ten o'clock in the morning.
"Jones Medi"
"You didn't even scream when you got up. You can't blame me. It was you who didn't scream."
"Well, it's my fault."
"I saw you let go of the person you arrested yesterday. Why?"
Wang Dengming handed over the tea and asked: "Would you like tea?"
"Don't drink it, it's too bitter."
"Do you think it is a coincidence or intentional that Wilson came to redeem Professor De'ang? I just said that Professor De'ang is his friend. What a coincidence."
Jones Medi lowered his head and thought for a while, then said: "I think this is too coincidental and a bit fake. Boss, do you want to check Professor De'ang's background again?"
"No, no need. I have a hunch that someone is manipulating the fact that there is gold in the north."
"Is there any evidence?"
"No, it's just intuition."
"Intuition is worthless."
"You are right, intuition is not valuable, but sometimes it is quite valuable, and we have to change our strategy."
"How do you plan to change it?"
"Just deal with it, there's no need to be so serious."
Jones Medi blinked a few times and said: "I saw you were so determined to arrest people, and I thought you also wanted to take out the gold from Professor De'ang's mouth."
"The people New York sent to the north to prospect for gold have not been heard from for two months. Do you understand?"
"No way, I haven't seen you for two months, so we need to file a case for investigation."
"There's no rush. We'll wait for news from Director Fedeli."
Having said this, Jones Medi added boiling water to Wang Dengming and said, "I shouldn't have lost my temper with you last night."
Wang Dengming answered the question differently: "Jones, do you regret coming to my internship?"
Jones Medi frowned and asked: "Chief Wang, what do you mean by this? You want to disqualify me in your inspection record, right?"
"I'm serious. Tell me what you really think. Do you regret it?"
"Regret? Why should I regret it?"
Wang Dengming smiled and said: "Okay, I won't ask anymore. Listen clearly, if the exploration team in Mukugu Valley hasn't come out for so long, someone must be looking for it. And if nothing happens, let's go find the person." The possibility of Makuku Valley is high. "
"reason?"
"Our police station is closest to Makusku Valley. According to the jurisdiction, that place was still under the jurisdiction of our police station a few years ago."
"what about now?"
"It's very vague, quite vague. The county police station sometimes takes care of it. When no one from the county police station goes there, we go."
"What you're saying now is that the county police department doesn't want to send anyone there?"
"It's hard to say. People die often in Muku Valley. People disappear for no reason. There are also threats like wild wolves and bears. Are you not afraid of them?"
Jones Medi's towering chest puffed up and he said, "Boss, only by accepting this challenge can I become a competent policeman."
Wang Dengming stood up, walked around her and said, "If there are other police officers in our town, I will not let you go."
"Chief, you are biased against female police officers, and I need you to correct it."
Jones Medi didn't look like he was joking.
"Well, let me correct you. Ten years ago, two policemen, the police from the town, went in, but they still can't find anyone."
"What does that mean?"
Jones Medi's tone seemed to be provoking Wang Dengming.
"Okay, you are very cool, I can't convince you."
Jones Medi's tone slowed down: "You don't need to convince me, because as long as you take me in, there won't be any danger."
Wang Dengming could only smile helplessly.
"Besides, we're not sure we're going to go, are we, so we don't need to argue about this issue, it's pointless."
"You are wrong, Jones. The possibility is very high. Fedeli was so generous in giving us a police car and also gave me the right to recruit auxiliary police officers. I know him. He will not give me benefits for no reason. He must have an intention. of."
Jones Medi looked surprised and said, "Can you make it clear what your intention is?"
"It's hard to say now,"
"can you give me more detail?"
"There are some things that it's better if you don't know. Let's go on patrol."
