At this time, Yang Sen found a travel bag under the bed in the bedroom, which contained a few changes of clothes, a dagger, and a hand-drawn map. On the map, the northwest corner of the scrap metal market in Cangyan County was circled in red, with "Warehouse C-17" marked next to it. "It seems we have found his hiding place." Yang Lin handed the map to Lu Chuan, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

On the electronic map in the Criminal Investigation Brigade meeting room, the satellite image of the scrap metal market in Cangyan County was magnified to the limit. Lu Chuan's laser pen repeatedly swiped over the red dot marked "Warehouse C-17", and the red light reflected on everyone's tired but determined faces: "Chen Yonggang is armed and extremely dangerous, this operation must be foolproof." He pressed the call button, and the video screen immediately cut into the command center of the Cangyan County Criminal Police Brigade, and the face of the brigade leader Zhou Zhengguo appeared on the big screen.

"Captain Zhou, we need your assistance."

The criminal police brigade in Chang'an County will definitely cooperate fully.

Lu Chuan said straight to the point, "According to investigation, the suspect Chen Yonggang is very likely hiding in the C-17 warehouse of the scrap metal market in Guixian County. He is involved in two murders, has strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities, and is likely to be carrying a homemade gunpowder gun."

Zhou Zhengguo frowned and immediately turned around to give instructions to the police officer behind him, then replied: "We will immediately arrange personnel to block the main roads around the market and cut off his escape route. However, the market covers an area of ​​nearly 100 acres, and the internal alleys are crisscrossed, so it is not easy to accurately locate him."

Zhang Hui held up his tablet and pulled up a 3D modeling diagram: "This is a simulation scene we made based on Chen Yonggang's hand-drawn map and the market floor plan. The C-17 warehouse is located in the northwest corner of the market, surrounded by scrapped vehicles and steel frames on three sides, with only one main passage on the east side. But the problem is that people come in and out of the market 24 hours a day, and rash actions can easily cause chaos."

The two sides had a heated discussion and finally decided on a plan of "first stakeout, then close the net". Zhou Zhengguo took the initiative to undertake the peripheral control work: "We arranged traffic police to set up checkpoints at the three entrances and exits of the market, and plainclothes police officers mixed in with the vendors to monitor the flow of people. Once a suspicious person is found, report it immediately." Lu Chuan decided that Wang Shuai and Zhang Hui would lead an elite team to stake out at close range.

At 17 o'clock that night, Wang Shuai and Zhang Hui changed into worn work clothes and sneaked into the market among the workers who were finishing work. They found an excellent observation point in an abandoned trailer about 50 meters away from the C- warehouse. Through the rusty gaps in the trailer, the iron door of the warehouse was clearly visible. Zhang Hui set up a high-powered telescope, and every move in the warehouse was magnified in the eyepiece: "The doors and windows are closed, but there are fresh pry marks on the vent on the west side, which should be his ventilation channel."

During the first 48 hours of surveillance, there was no movement in the warehouse. The team members huddled in the small trailer and took turns to monitor. The late autumn night wind poured in through the gaps, making everyone shiver. Wang Shuai stared at the thermal imaging device in his hand. The warehouse area on the screen always showed a low temperature: "He is likely to hide in the dark during the day and move around at night. From now on, we will change shifts every two hours and we must not relax."

At two o'clock in the morning of the third day, something unusual finally appeared in the telescope. The iron door of the warehouse slid open silently, and a figure wearing a headlamp poked his head out. Although the other person was wrapped in a thick cotton coat and the mask covered most of his face, Wang Shuai still judged that it was Chen Yonggang from his left-handed habit. He immediately reported to the command center through the intercom: "The target has appeared, prepare for action!"

Lu Chuan calmly ordered at the command center: "Attention all groups, act according to Plan B. The Cangyan County Criminal Police Brigade continues to block the perimeter, Wang Shuai and Zhang Hui's team await support and avoid acting alone!" Five minutes later, three police cars disguised as scrap recycling trucks slowly drove into the market and stopped 50 meters away from the warehouse.

After repeated deductions, the arrest plan was divided into three steps: the first step was for technicians to use electromagnetic interference equipment to cut off the communication signals around the warehouse to prevent Chen Yonggang from noticing any abnormalities; the second step was for the SWAT team to encircle the warehouse from the east and west sides and install sound wave dispersal devices on the doors and windows of the warehouse; the third step was for negotiation experts to use the radio to persuade the enemy to surrender, and if that didn't work, they would force their way in. As the action order was issued, the technicians quickly deployed the interference equipment. Wang Shuai looked at the signal detector in his hand, and after confirming that the warehouse had become an information island, he nodded to the SWAT captain. The SWAT team members wearing bulletproof equipment approached the warehouse like ghosts and fixed the sound wave devices on the doors and windows.

"Chen Yonggang, you've been surrounded!" The voice of the negotiation expert resounded throughout the market through the loudspeaker, "Resisting stubbornly will only make your crime even worse. Lay down your weapons and come out to surrender!" There was a dead silence in the warehouse, with only the sound of the wind passing through the abandoned vehicles, making a whimpering sound.

After ten minutes of stalemate, the sound of glass bottles breaking suddenly came from the warehouse. Wang Shuai's heart tightened: "He is desperate! Prepare to attack!" The SWAT team members immediately switched to assault mode. The moment the sonic device was activated, the harsh high-frequency sound waves penetrated the warehouse. At the same time, the blaster blew open the iron door, and the SWAT team entered one after another.

The warehouse was filled with the pungent smell of gasoline. Chen Yonggang was holding a gunpowder gun, and behind him was a circle of waste cardboard boxes splashed with gasoline. "Don't come over! Otherwise, I will die together with you!" he shouted hysterically.

boom!
At the critical moment, Lu Chuan fired decisively!
A shot hit his right hand and the gunpowder gun fell.

Several criminal police officers who were closer followed the special police and eventually subdued Chen Yonggang.

The interrogation began on the spot.

The incandescent light in the local Xianju interrogation room hummed above Chen Yonggang's head, making the dark circles under his eyes even darker. Zhang Hui slammed the evidence bag on the table. Li Xiaomin's broken violin bow glowed coldly in the transparent plastic bag: "In the early morning of the 17th, you drove a van to dump the body in the Beiyang River. The bloodstains left in the car completely matched Li Xiaomin's DNA. How do you explain this?"

Chen Yonggang crossed his arms over his chest, and the metal handcuffs made a crisp sound: "I don't know what you are talking about. I sold that car to the scrapyard a long time ago." He tilted his head and stared at the crack in the wall, his Adam's apple rolling up and down, but he never looked at the other person. Wang Shuai suddenly pushed Chen Yongqiang's death photo over. The swollen and purple face in the freezer was shocking under the strong light: "The marks on your cousin's body are exactly the same as the rope pattern on Li Xiaomin's neck, even the number of windings is exactly the same."

"He brought this upon himself!" Chen Yonggang suddenly jumped up, his iron chair making a harsh sound on the ground. "That idiot insisted on turning himself in, saying that he wanted to pay for Li Xiaomin's life!" He suddenly shut up, his teeth clenched. Zhang Hui caught this flaw and leaned forward, "So you admit to killing Chen Yongqiang? What about Li Xiaomin? What did she find that was worth your brutal action?" (End of this chapter)
