Solving the case: Combining the police dog's olfactory genes at the beginning

"Now I'm giving you a chance: cooperate with the investigation and redeem yourself through good deeds."

The train's announcement came on, informing passengers that they were about to arrive at Chengdu Station.

Luo Fei patted Xu Wenbiao on the shoulder.

"We've arrived. Take me to your company."

Xu Wenbiao was completely wilted, like a frostbitten eggplant.

He knew he had nowhere to run and could only obediently cooperate.

After the two got off the train, Luo Fei noticed a young girl holding a sign that read "Luo Fei" at the exit.

He was taken aback. This was a private trip; who would pick him up from the station?
Before he could think any further, a black Rolls-Royce Cullinan slowly came to a stop in front of them.

The car window rolled down, and the driver called out respectfully.

"Mr. Xu!"

Xu Wenbiao glanced awkwardly at Luo Fei, who nodded slightly to indicate that he should handle the situation normally.

"Who is this"

The driver looked at Luo Fei with a puzzled expression.

"My brother."

Xu Wenbiao forced himself to remain calm.

"Go straight back to the company."

As the car entered Chengdu city, Luo Fei observed the unfamiliar city through the car window.

With its towering buildings and bustling traffic, it is just as prosperous as Wuhan.

Which district is your company located in?

Luo Fei asked casually.

"Qingyang District CBD".

Xu Wenbiao answered.

"We rented two floors of office space."

Luo Fei raised an eyebrow.

"They've really gone all out."

"Chengdu is truly a place blessed with good fortune!"

Su Xiaoping raised his teacup, a smug smile on his face.

"Last month's revenue was 38 million, and this month it's just around the corner to break 40 million."

The tea room was filled with smoke, and several "industry bigwigs" from Jiangcheng sat in a circle, all with ruddy complexions.

Several of the latest mobile phones were placed on the mahogany coffee table, their screens constantly displaying message notifications.

"President Su, you have excellent taste."

The fat man, Li Dehai, sitting opposite, smiled obsequiously.

"When they first proposed moving the capital to Chengdu, I hesitated. But now it seems like a brilliant move!"

"That's natural."

Su Xiaoping took a sip of tea, her eyes gleaming with shrewdness.

"The cops are keeping a close eye on us in Jiangcheng, especially that Luo Fei. Now that the emperor is far away, we can do whatever we want."

"I heard Luo Fei was recently transferred to Qingyang?"

Zhang Ming, who was tall and thin, chimed in and asked.

"Who cares where they go!"

Su Xiaoping waved his hand dismissively.

"Just don't get in my way. Come on, let's take a look at this month's new script."

As they were engaged in their lively discussion, fine beads of sweat appeared on Xu Wenbiao's forehead inside the building's elevator.

He secretly glanced at Luo Fei, who stood expressionless beside him, and his throat tightened.

"Captain Luo, you promised."

Xu Wenbiao's voice trembled.

"I'll cooperate with you, then..."

Luo Fei gently patted his shoulder, the force was light, but it made Xu Wenbiao tremble all over.

"Don't worry, I mean what I say. The prerequisite is your performance today."

The elevator stopped on the 56th floor with a "ding," and the gold-plated logo of [Redline Media] shone brightly under the lights.

The receptionist looked up and smiled.

"Hello, Mr. Xu."

Xu Wenbiao nodded stiffly and led Luo Fei through the spacious front hall.

Behind the glass wall are densely packed workstations, where hundreds of employees are busy at their computers, with the sounds of telephones and keyboards ringing out.

"The company... uh, the group, has a very well-established organizational structure."

Xu Wenbiao swallowed hard and introduced in a low voice.

"Su Xiaoping is the chairman, I am the general manager, and there are three vice presidents under me. There are a total of 798 employees in charge of different business areas. Last month's salary expenditure was 11 million yuan, and the net profit was about 20 million yuan."

Luo Fei's gaze swept across the office area, his eyes growing cold.

"Take me to see the business department."

As they passed through several glass doors, the scene before them caused Luo Fei's pupils to shrink slightly. The nearly 1,000-square-meter open-plan office area was divided into three sections, with seven or eight mobile phones neatly arranged on each workstation. Employees were typing furiously, operating multiple chat windows simultaneously.

"This is our core business area."

Xu Wenbiao's voice grew softer and softer.

"Divided into three theater commands: Eastern, Western, and Southern."

Suddenly, a joyous burst of firecrackers erupted from the speakers, and everyone stopped what they were doing and looked up.

"Good news from the First War Zone!"

A male voice announced with great enthusiasm.

"Liu Jiahao has closed another big deal! Client 'Northeast Wolf' tipped him 12 yuan! Congratulations, Brother Hao!"

The office area erupted in enthusiastic applause and whistles.

A young man with slicked-back hair stood up and waved smugly.

"Brother Hao is awesome!"

"Brother Hao, please teach us!"

Liu Jiahao cleared his throat and picked up the microphone.

"It's actually very simple. I've been cultivating this client for three months. First, I show him photos of children in impoverished mountain areas, then I send him several videos of our 'volunteers' working hard. The key is to make him believe that his money can really help the children."

Luo Fei's fingers tightened slightly at his side.

These fraudsters are taking advantage of people's kindness to commit evil deeds!

"He was the top seller last month."

Xu Wenbiao said in a low voice.

"Sales revenue exceeded 1.3 million."

Luo Fei.

"Take me to see the personnel files and the back-end system."

Xu Wenbiao led Luo Fei to the administrative office area on the 57th floor.

It's much quieter here than downstairs.

Several clerks were organizing documents when they saw Xu Wenbiao and stood up to greet him.

"All the information of newly hired employees is here."

Xu Wenbiao opened a filing cabinet.

"A photocopy of my ID card, contact information, and home address are all provided."

Luo Fei quickly flipped through the pages, already having a plan in mind.

This information will be key to bringing them all to justice.

"What about the backend system?"

"In the computer room."

Xu Wenbiao's forehead was covered in even more sweat.

"All customer information and transaction records are in there."

Half an hour later, Luo Fei had a USB flash drive in his hand.

He looked at Xu Wenbiao.

"Now, gather everyone in the lobby on the 56th floor."

Xu Wenbiao's face turned deathly pale.

"Captain Luo, there are so many people!"

"Either you cooperate with me now."

Luo Fei's voice was calm.

"Either I call for backup right now, and you'll be the first one taken away. Choose."

Xu Wenbiao's legs began to tremble, but he finally nodded.

After the notice was issued, employees gathered in the main office area, discussing it animatedly.

Some complained that it delayed their "client meetings," while others speculated whether they were about to receive bonuses.

It took nearly half an hour for almost 800 people to arrive and stand in their respective departments.

Luo Fei stood on the makeshift platform, looking down at the dense crowd.

He noticed that Su Xiaoping was standing in the front row, frowning as she looked at Xu Wenbiao, while the latter avoided his gaze and stood behind Luo Fei with his neck hunched.

"Quiet!"

Luo Fei picked up the microphone; his voice wasn't loud, but it was extremely penetrating.

The clamor gradually subsided, and everyone looked at the unfamiliar face with puzzlement.

"Introduce yourself."

Luo Fei showed his police officer ID.

"Qingyang Criminal Investigation Team, Luo Fei."

In an instant, the entire hall fell into dead silence, followed by a deafening roar.

"police?!"

"Fuck!"

"What's going on?!" Su Xiaoping's face turned ashen instantly, and he turned sharply to Xu Wenbiao.

"You motherfucker"

Luo Fei stood on the podium, his gaze sweeping across the more than eight hundred anxious faces below the stage with sharp, piercing eyes.

The air conditioner was blowing cold air, but it couldn't dispel the tension and fear that permeated the air.

“I know that most of you know what you are doing.”

Luo Fei's voice wasn't loud, but it struck everyone's heart like a heavy hammer.

"But I also know that some people just joined yesterday and have no idea what this 'international trading company' is actually doing."

A few suppressed sobs came from the audience.

A girl with a ponytail bit her lip hard, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Escape?"

Luo Fei sneered, took out his police ID from his pocket, and slammed it on the table.

"Look closely, this is Luo Fei from the Qingyang City Criminal Investigation Team. If you run now, you'll be on an arrest warrant tomorrow, and your crime will be compounded."

"Thud." A young man in a plaid shirt in the back row dropped the folder in his hand to the ground. He had quietly moved to the back door, but now he seemed to be nailed to the ground, his face pale.

Xu Wenbiao stood behind Luo Fei, fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.

He tried to speak several times, but was stopped by a look from Luo Fei.

"I'm not here to arrest anyone today."

Luo Fei suddenly changed his tone and pulled over a chair to sit down.

"It was General Manager Xu who showed me around. Now I'll give you two choices."

The entire conference room was so quiet that you could hear the hum of the air conditioner running.

"First, come with me to the Qingyang City Police Station to turn yourself in; second, ignore what I say and leave now."

Luo Fei took out his phone and checked the time.

"You have five minutes to think about it."

As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen girls rushed forward, crying.

"Officer, I only arrived yesterday!"

"I really didn't know it was a scam company."

They said they were doing customer service for foreign trade.

Luo Fei raised his hand to signal them to be quiet.

"Line up and talk one by one. As long as you tell the truth, there will be no criminal record."

A thin boy wearing glasses asked timidly.

"Officer, I... I was promoted to a permanent position last month, but my job is only to organize Excel spreadsheets. Is that a crime?"

"It depends on what kind of data you're compiling."

Luo Fei stared into his eyes.

“If it’s the victim’s information, then he’s an accomplice.”

The bespectacled man's legs went weak, and he almost knelt on the ground.

Five minutes later, surprisingly, no one chose to leave.

Luo Fei stood up and patted Xu Wenbiao on the shoulder.

"Mr. Xu, please lead the way to your company lobby."

Xu Wenbiao's face turned ashen, but he dared not disobey.

"Officer Luo, this way please."

Inside the elevator, Xu Wenbiao lowered his voice.

"Luo Fei, what do you mean by this? Didn't we agree on something?"

What did we agree on?

Luo Fei interrupted him, his voice as cold as ice.

"You promised me I'd pretend I didn't see you swindling ordinary people out of their hard-earned money?"

The veins on Xu Wenbiao's forehead bulged.

Don't forget who it was back then.

"Ding." The elevator doors opened, and Luo Fei strode out, leaving Xu Wenbiao standing there, gritting his teeth.

On the first floor of the building, more than 800 people gathered in the lobby, attracting curious glances from employees of other companies.

Luo Fei stood on the high platform of the front desk and took out his phone to check the map.

"Qingyang District Police Station, three kilometers away."

He announced loudly.

“Everyone, follow me on foot. Don’t even think about running, I have a very good memory.”

The procession moved slowly and silently through the streets of Chengdu, like a long, winding dragon.

Passersby stopped to take pictures, and some even recognized Luo Fei.

"Isn't that the detective from Jiangcheng who 'came back to life'?"

"My God, did he take down the entire fraud ring?"

Luo Fei ignored him and walked at the front of the group, with Xu Wenbiao following behind him like a wilted eggplant.

Meanwhile, at Chengdu High-speed Railway Station.

Huang Xiao checked his watch for the third time and impatiently kicked his suitcase.

"Dad, is Luo Fei coming or not? We've been waiting for over an hour!"

Huang Yong, on the other end of the phone, was also puzzled.

"I'll call him right now."

Luo Fei's phone vibrated. He glanced at the caller ID and pressed the answer button.

"Director Huang."

"Luo Fei! Where are you? My daughter has been waiting for you at the station for over an hour!"

Huang Yong's voice boomed from the receiver.

Luo Fei glanced at the vast procession behind him and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

"I ran into an old friend on the way and stopped by for a visit. Oh, and I brought you a small gift, for about 800 people."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for three seconds.

"Don't you fucking tell me!"

"The entire fraud ring has been busted."

Luo Fei said it casually.

"We'll be at the bureau in half an hour. Are you ready to prepare for the reception?"

Huang Yong cursed, but the surprise in his voice was unmistakable.

"Get over here right now!"

After hanging up the phone, Luo Fei noticed that Xu Wenbiao was staring at him with resentful eyes.

"What, you're not convinced?"

Luo Fei leaned close to his ear and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"You saved my life once back then, so today I'll spare your life. We're even."

Xu Wenbiao's pupils suddenly contracted.

"you"

"Don't rush, the real show has just begun."

Luo Fei patted his face, then turned and continued leading the team forward.

At the entrance of the Qingyang City Police Station, Huang Yong personally led more than a dozen officers to stand ready.

When the veteran detective saw the dark mass of people in the distance, he couldn't help but gasp.

"Attention all personnel! Prepare to receive the suspect!"

Huang Yong gave the order in a loud voice.

Two men were looking down at this scene from a window on the third floor of the police station.

"That's the legendary Luo Fei?"

Lu Shaoqi stroked his chin.

"It doesn't look special."

Qin Yongkang narrowed his eyes.

"Can someone whose file is encrypted by the National Security Bureau be simple? I checked, and I couldn't even find the record of the operation where he 'died' three years ago."

The two exchanged a glance and nodded in tacit agreement.

"Let's go check out one of the teams."

Lu Shaoqi took out a package of Chengdu specialties from the drawer.

"Let's talk about sharing snacks."

In the office area of ​​the Criminal Investigation Team One, the sounds of keyboards being typed and papers being turned over rose and fell, but no one dared to speak loudly.

The serial murders of two girls were like a boulder, suffocating everyone.

Where is Captain Wang?

Lu Shaoqi lowered his voice and asked his colleague next to him.

"I went to the forensic department again. I heard there were new findings in the autopsy report."

My colleague answered without even looking up.

Lu Shaoqi and Qin Yongkang exchanged a glance and stood up in tacit agreement.

"Go and have a look."

The two had just reached the corner of the corridor when they bumped into Wang Hong, who had just come out of the director's office.

Wang Hong's face was gloomy, and he held a document in his hand, his knuckles turning white.

"Captain Wang, is there a new lead?"

Qin Yongkang asked tentatively.

Wang Hong snorted coldly.

"The forensic team confirmed that the second victim's wounds were exactly the same as the first, indicating that the murderer was the same person, but..." He scratched his head in frustration.

"There was still no trace left at the scene, not even a single hair!"

Lu Shaoqi frowned. (End of Chapter)
