In the Public Security Bureau, all members of a team sat around the whiteboard.
Qin Youwei introduced the autopsy. No new findings were found in the further autopsy, except that many bruises were found on the body of the deceased Huang Mao. It can be seen that the murderer's abuse of Huang Mao during his lifetime was far more serious than what appeared on the surface.
Huang Mao's death was probably related to Cao Fei. Lu Wan decided to combine the two cases for investigation. There was only one key to the investigation, and that was to find Cao Fei or the theft gang.
"Tell us about your respective investigations." Lu Wan looked at everyone.
Chen Xiaoxiao and others were responsible for investigating the details of Cao Meng's disappearance. There was surveillance at the gate of Wenlao Road Primary School. The surveillance revealed that Cao Meng was picked up by Cao Fei after school the day before yesterday.
After the two left the school, they took a small road that could go directly to Cao Fei's home. Cao Meng did not go home that night. Apparently something happened on the way home.
Chen Xiaoxiao and others walked along the path and found that there were many sparsely populated areas, which were convenient for theft gangs.
They tried visiting some merchants, but no one noticed the Cao Fei brother and sister.
After reporting the investigation, Chen Xiaoxiao added: "Although nothing was found, I think some problems can be found from it. For example, Cao Fei and Cao Meng left the school together. The other party is probably following Cao Fei and seeing Cao Meng. After the dream, she kidnapped her on impulse."
Lu Wan agreed and recounted her and Bai Mo's inferences.
From this point of view, the theft gang saw Cao Fei stealing things that day, and because their accomplices were unable to participate in the operation on time, they invited Cao Fei to join.
Even after Cao Fei refused, the theft gang still refused to give up. They discovered Cao Meng while following Cao Fei, and decided to kidnap Cao Meng and threaten Cao Fei.
After everyone reached a consensus, Peng Yuetao said: "I have discovered something here!"
According to Lu Wan's request, Peng Yuetao investigated the non-local people detained in the past week and found that one of them, a native of Northern Province, was strange. His identity information was true, but he could not find out what kind of transportation he took to Meihai City. tool.
This person's name is Zhu Yanchao, and he is 24 years old today. It stands to reason that if he did not come to Meihai City by public transportation, he must have come by car. Peng Yuetao checked all the information in his name.
After this investigation, Peng Yuetao discovered the problem.
Zhu Yanchao had no assets, no job, only a bank card with very little turnover, and a phone card with almost no call records.
"It does sound like something is wrong." Lu Wan wrote Zhu Yanchao's name on the whiteboard.
"It's more than that!" Peng Yuetao said, "Zhu Yanchao was arrested by colleagues who were fighting against pornography. The place where he was arrested was in a massage parlor on Jianxue Road."
The three words Jianxue Road immediately aroused Lu Wan's interest. This road is not far from the hospital, and the entire road is full of tenants. This is another clue that Lu Wan asked Peng Yuetao to investigate.
"Has he provided his current residence?" Lu Wan asked.
"No." Peng Yuetao said, "I know he is a foreigner. The anti-pornography people will not ask these questions. They just contacted the local police station to verify his identity."
Lu Wan nodded and asked, "When will they be released?"
"I have already said hello. They will not let him go without our consent." Peng Yuetao said, "Should we let him go and follow him?"
"Prepare to release him." Lu Wan looked at Yang Pengyu, "You and Peng Yuetao keep an eye on Zhu Yanchao and pay attention to safety."
Peng Yuetao and the two took the order. Before leaving, Peng Yuetao gave Lu Wan his investigation results about the tenants.
There are too many tenants near the hospital, with one-third of them being foreigners. Peng Yuetao classified the tenants according to the number of tenants, and Lu Wan could only decide how to investigate the rest.
Lu Wan then asked Fu Xingliang to take people to secretly protect Cao Fei's family, and then returned to his office.
After closing the glass door, Lu Wan sat in front of the computer, opened the computer and entered the internal system.
When a murder occurred, Lu Wan realized that the theft gang they faced was not simple. Ma Hongbo, sent by the provincial department, was just a bystander, which made Lu Wan realize that there was another mystery to the case.
Since Ma Hongbo didn't take the initiative to tell him, Lu Wan could only find a way to find out on her own.
On the way back, Lu Wan contacted Bai Yonghui and asked Bai Yonghui to get all the information about the theft gang that he could get within his authority.
Outside Lu Wan's office, Bai Mo was drawing aimlessly on a white paper with a pencil.
"What are you thinking about?" Chen Xiaoxiao pulled up a chair and sat next to Bai Mo, "You didn't even reply to our little Lu's WeChat message?"
From yesterday to now, Bai Mo has been running around with Lu Wan. He saw Yang Lu's WeChat message, but when he wanted to reply, he was interrupted by other things, so he still hasn't had time to reply to WeChat.
Taking out his mobile phone, Bai Mo replied to Yang Lu: [Sorry, I have been investigating the case and didn't have time to reply to your message. 】
I don't know if Yang Lu is holding his phone every day. Just a few seconds after the message was sent, Bai Mo received Yang Lu's reply.
[Xiaoxiao told me, come on, Teacher Bai, we must catch those nasty thieves! 】
A hard-working expression was added at the end.
Putting down his phone, Bai Mo frowned and looked at the whiteboard. He always felt that Lu Wan had overlooked something.
Seeing that Bai Mo just replied to a WeChat message, Chen Xiaoxiao pouted dissatisfiedly, "Perfunctory!"
Bai Mo seemed not to hear it. He vaguely found the ignored problem.
Their preconceived notions led them to directly link Huang Mao's death to the theft gang, and the investigation meant that the focus of the investigation would be tilted towards the theft gang.
If this is a simple homicide, the first step is to investigate and monitor. The building where the arcade is located has many surveillance blind spots. As long as the murderer has experience, he will definitely be able to avoid surveillance.
"Suck-" Bai Mo suddenly took a deep breath and murmured, "How did the murderer find the video game city?"
"I must know it from Cao Fei." Chen Xiaoxiao looked at Bai Mo doubtfully.
"No!" Bai Mo shook his head, "People like them attach great importance to loyalty. Xing San'er said that Huang Mao would not betray Cao Fei even if he died. If Huang Mao can treat him like this, Cao Fei should be such a person."
Seeing that Chen Xiaoxiao did not refute, Bai Mo continued: "We know that Cao Fei and Xing San'er are closely related, and the circle of thieves in Meihai City also know about it, so we instinctively think that the murderer will also know.
But the theft gang was from outside, how could they know about the relationship between Cao Fei and Xing Saner? How did he know that Xing San'er's base camp was in the video game city? "
There is obviously a link missing in this process, which is how the theft gang found out about Xing Saner.
Although Xing San'er is very famous, he is only in the underground world of Meihai City. How can ordinary people know Xing San'er's information?
If you want to find out his base camp, you will definitely not be able to smell it if you pick up a random person on the road.
Therefore, before the theft gang approached Xing San'er, they must have also found someone in Xing San'er's circle.
