Detective: Open your eyes, I am handcuffed in the interrogation room.

Chapter 551 Du Xun is missing
The factory owner was Kou Wenhao, Kou Chaoyi's younger brother. He was quite young. When he was arrested, he was sleeping at home with his girlfriend. He had no idea what was happening in the factory and did not receive any information in advance.

Meng Yi's approach was correct. He asked someone to keep an eye on the bald man and his men. Otherwise, they would probably call and inform Kou Wenhao, who would have heard the news, and would have left Yangcheng immediately.

You can't run away, it will always be trouble.

Five o'clock in the morning.

Kou Wenhao was already sitting in the interrogation room, and other factory leaders, including workers, were being detained.

Since it was impossible to determine how many people were involved, all those who worked at the hardware factory were brought back for questioning.

In view of the large number of people in the factory, Zhang Jingang mobilized more than 100 police officers from the branch and police stations after reporting the case, and took action and started the trial at the same time.

He just went to the Internet cafe to surf the Internet, but he didn't expect that the coincidence of marriage would lead to such a big case. Even Chen Yi himself didn't expect it.

Of course, it’s also thanks to Meng Yi.

As a policeman, it is impossible for Chen Yi to conduct a comprehensive investigation of Kou Chaoyi for no reason without any clues or doubts.

Meng Yi is a free man, and he has some personal emotions. He simply dislikes Kou Chaoyi.

"Is the message blocked?"

At the Municipal Bureau, in front of Chen Yijin’s interrogation room, Zhang Jingang, who had rushed over from home, asked questions.

The case of illegal manufacturing of gun parts is indeed a sensitive one, so he has to come.

It is best to digest this case internally and not make it public. Even if it is made public, we should wait until everything is settled.

In fact, this is the case with most criminal cases. Cases that are made public before they are closed are basically because they have been seen by the public and cannot be concealed. In this case, we can only issue a notice first to tell everyone that the case is under further investigation and to be patient and wait for the results.

Unresolved and public cases will only bring more pressure to the criminal police handling the cases, which will do more harm than good.

"Don't worry, Director Zhang, it has been blocked." Chen Yi nodded.

He had repeatedly warned Meng Yi not to spread the news. Fortunately, not many people entered the factory warehouse, and they were all Meng Yi's confidants. They were trustworthy and would not spread the news.

"That's good." Zhang Jingang said, "First, we'll examine it and report it to the provincial department in three hours."

Chen Yi entered the interrogation room.

Kou Wenhao was in his thirties, and his clothes were rather messy, probably because he was sleeping when he was arrested.

When he saw Chen Yi appear, his face was filled with helplessness and despair, as if he had resigned himself to his fate.

Gun parts were found in the factory, and everyone must have been controlled. There was no chance of anything happening.

This is different from murder. When committing murder, you can still try to negotiate with the police, but once an illegal business is exposed, there will be no changes.

Chen Yi sat down and interrogated him step by step.

Kou Wenhao confessed to illegally manufacturing gun parts. The buyers were from abroad, and he was also suspected of smuggling them out of the country.

There are actually not many people involved in the factory, only about one-fifth. The remaining four-fifths make regular hardware accessories. These people have no idea that illegal items are still being produced in the factory.

As for the bald man, he also didn't know.

That group of people were just security guards hired by Kou Wenhao at a high price. They had issued a strict order that outsiders were not allowed to enter or leave the hardware factory. If anyone broke in by force, they would be dealt with as long as no one was killed. He would take care of the compensation and bail when the time came.

But he didn't expect that the person who broke in this time was a ruthless guy, and the "gangster" he hired at a high price didn't even dare to move.

Finally we talked about Kou Chaoyi.

"Kou...Chaoyi?" Kou Wenhao's depressed mood showed up. He looked up and asked in surprise, "What does this have to do with my brother? Didn't he open a private middle school and serve as the principal?"

Chen Yi was not influenced by Meng Yi's preconceived ideas and asked normally: "The factory used to belong to Kou Chaoyi, right?"

Before the trial, He Shixin had thoroughly investigated the hardware factory. It was Kou Chaoyi who originally built the factory, but later due to poor management, he transferred it to his younger brother Kou Wenhao.

It's not free, you have to pay.

With this money and the loan, Kou Chaoyi built Qingshi Middle School and returned to his old business.

Kou Wenhao replied: "Yes, it was his before, but he transferred it to me because he lost money and couldn't continue. I used to be a manager in other factories and have management experience."

"You have experience?" Chen Yi sneered, "You have experience, but you don't want to do business properly, so you go to produce gun parts?"

Kou Wenhao was speechless and lowered his head again.

I don't know if this guy is careless, has strong psychological quality, or is just giving up, but he is still calm even though he is about to face a sentence of more than ten years or even life imprisonment.

It's normal. You wouldn't burst into tears in the interrogation room.

According to Kou Wenhao, Kou Chaoyi was not involved in the criminal act of manufacturing gun parts, which means that there may be certain errors in Meng Yi's investigation.

No one can avoid looking at people through the crack of the door.

If other people did not give Kou Chaoyi away, the police would not have taken measures to summon Kou Chaoyi.

The factory has been sold, and there is no reason to interrogate Kou Chaoyi. This is what Meng Yi said himself.

After asking a few more questions, Chen Yi left the interrogation room.

This case is not small, but not complicated. The factory was sealed and handed over to the procuratorate, and the case was closed.

……

When all relevant personnel had been interrogated, Chen Yi called Meng Yi.

"Kou Chaoyi didn't participate? How is that possible?!" Meng Yi was quite surprised and suspected that he had heard it wrong.

Chen Yi: "Meng, what makes you think Kou Chaoyi was involved?"

Meng Yi: "My men said Kou Chaoyi had been in and out of the factory many times. He has already sold the factory, so how could he still go there so often?"

Chen Yi: "I asked Kou Wenhao, Kou Chaoyi does go to the factory often, but he just hangs around. After all, it's his own factory, and he still has feelings for it even after selling it."

Meng Yi was helpless: "It really has nothing to do with him?"

Chen Yi: "From the clues we have so far, there is no evidence pointing to Kou Chaoyi's involvement in the case. You just dislike him and want to send him to prison. After finding problems at the factory, you naturally pinned the crime on him."

This is quite straightforward and also true.

After the Guan Xinmei incident and the student union incident, Chen Yi no longer liked Kou Chaoyi, but not liking him didn't mean he could arrest him on false charges.

Seeing Meng Yi silent, he smiled and said, "Although Kou Chaoyi should have nothing to do with this case, you at least helped the police to bust a den that illegally manufactured gun parts. It's a great achievement. I will help you apply for a reward."

Meng Yi was in a bad mood: "No, I don't need money, and I don't want a certificate. I'm not a primary school student."

"No?" Chen Yi sighed, "Well, this time you helped the police discover a major crime and successfully cracked it. If you were a police officer, you would have at least received a second-class merit. Unfortunately, you are not a police officer.

However... this situation is specific and special. If it is included in the file, I can enjoy the green channel of administrative services of the public security organs in the future, and any needs will be handled with priority. Forget the reward, and hang up first."

Green channel?

These four words perked up Meng Yi: "Wait a minute, wait a minute, don't hang up yet, who said I don't want a reward? I'm kidding you."

There are so many aspects of daily life involving dealing with the police that you should not miss the green channel. It will also give you face if you tell others about it.

Who would have thought that Lizhi Mengyi, who once smashed a street with a wine bottle, could now enjoy the privileges granted by the police for his meritorious service and be even whiter than ordinary people.

Chen Yi smiled and said, "Okay, I'll apply for it later. When you have time, come to the Municipal Bureau to record a statement. After all, you broke into someone else's factory, so just explain what happened. I've already explained it."

Meng Yi: “Understood.”

The phone hangs up.

Chen Yi went to Zhang Jingang to report the situation. …

On the other hand, Qin Fei and Xia Lan, who were not involved in this case, have begun visiting Qingshi’s graduates. Some of these students have gone to college, while others have dropped out to work.

The ratio is half and half, which is different from what I imagined. I thought it would be difficult for Qingshi graduates to pass the college entrance examination smoothly.

No matter it is a vocational college, a junior college or an undergraduate college, for students, as long as they go to school, it is always better than working, at least they can enjoy a few more years of comfort.

Because of the large number of visitors, Qin Fei asked Chen Yi for additional police force, and the latter agreed.

Unlike the case of the hardware factory illegally manufacturing gun parts, Kou Chaoyi is suspected of indecent assault, so he can be investigated specifically.

Thoroughly investigate what has been done, and no one will be wrongly accused of things that have not been done.

Two days later, Lin Chen heard about this. By then, he had already completed his mission at He Shixin's place. After preparing himself mentally for half a day, he came to Chen Yi's office.

Behind closed doors, they are relatives, so Lin Chen called him brother-in-law.

Chen Yi was processing documents and said without even looking up, "You want to go investigate the case with Xia Lan."

Lin Chen never dared to fool around with Chen Yi and admitted it honestly.

Chen Yi stopped talking and continued to work.

Lin Chen didn't disturb them and just stood there waiting quietly.

More than ten minutes passed. Chen Yi put the documents together, leaned back in his chair, took out a cigarette, lit it, and then looked at Lin Chen who was standing in front of him.

"Is it to investigate the case or to pursue the girl?" Chen Yi said with a smile.

Lin Chen thought about it and said, "Half and half."

Chen Yi: "No, it's 100% for chasing girls. If Xia Lan wasn't in this detective team, you wouldn't come to me."

Lin Chen wanted to refute, but didn't dare.

"It's human nature. Go ahead."

Chen Yi didn't intend to talk about any big principles with the other party. The police are also human beings. Since Lin Chen came to the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Municipal Bureau, his performance in all aspects has been good.

At the same time, he also has a strong sense of learning, which is what he is most satisfied with.

Just chase girls if you want to, it doesn’t matter.

"Thank you, brother-in-law. I'm leaving now!"

Lin Chen couldn't wait to leave the office, and took out his mobile phone to call Qin Fei as he walked.

Just as I arrived at the door of the Municipal Bureau, a middle-aged man came towards me. He was walking very fast and the two of them bumped into each other without noticing.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was too anxious." The middle-aged man apologized quickly after steadying himself.

Lin Chen just frowned, then quickly relaxed and asked, "What do you do?"

Middle-aged man: "I'm looking for...Captain Zhuo."

"Captain Zhuo?" Lin Chen waved his hand to signal the other party to go in. "It's inside."

Middle-aged man: "Okay, thank you, sorry for the trouble."

After watching Lin Chen leave, he quickly walked into the Municipal Bureau and soon met Zhuo Yun who was working.

"Mr. Du, why are you here?"

Zhuo Yun knew him, Du Xun's father. When he was dealing with a student union beating incident in Qingshi before, he met many parents, and he was most impressed by Du Xun's father.

Because Du Xun's case was the most recent one, he was locked up in a small dark room and had other injuries on his body, so the nature of his injuries was relatively more serious.

And when he was beaten, Chen Yi was right next to him.

He gave priority to Du Xun's case.

If the abuser had not finally obtained the forgiveness of the victim and the victim's family, there would definitely be a stain on his file, and he might even be put in a correctional institution. It would not be as simple as paying some money.

Du Xun's father was very anxious: "Captain Zhuo, my son is missing. I went to the school to look for him, but he wasn't there."

"Gone?!" Zhuo Yun's face changed slightly, "Have you searched everywhere you should have?"

Du Xun's father said, "We have looked everywhere, but he is not at his grandparents' place. We have also asked all the relatives, but they haven't seen him either."

Zhuo Yun frowned, thought for a moment and then stood up: "Wait a moment."

He went to the captain's office.

Upon learning that Du Xun was missing, Chen Yi suddenly had a bad feeling, and immediately left the office with Zhuo Yun to meet Du Xun's father.

Missing cases are generally not the responsibility of the Criminal Investigation Detachment, but since the family members have come in person, of course we have to find out more, not to mention that the missing person is a student of Qingshi.

"Mr. Du, this is our detachment leader Chen Yi." Zhuo Yun introduced.

Hearing this, Du Xun's father quickly extended his hands and said politely, "Captain Chen, hello, hello."

"Mr. Du, please take a seat and tell me the details. When did you find out he was missing?"

Several people sat down and listened to what Du Xun's father had to say.

More than a week has passed since Chen Yi and Meng Yi left Qingshi. Qingshi has resumed weekends, but Du Xun did not go home.

Du Xun didn't have a cell phone because Qingshi wouldn't let him bring it, so Du Xun's father went to the school to look for it.

Most of the students had left school, and Du Xun was not among those who remained.

The classroom, the playground, the dormitory, every bathroom including the women's restroom... we searched everywhere we could, and it turned out that Du Xun was indeed not in school.

The small dark room in the playground was demolished a week ago, leaving no dead corners where people could hide.

After listening, Chen Yi said, "Mr. Du, excuse me, is he in touch with his mother?"

Du Xun said that his mother ran away with someone.

When talking about his wife, Du Xun's father looked unnatural and sighed, "She hasn't been seen for many years. It's impossible for us to be in touch."

Chen Yi: "You don't have any contact information either?"

Du Xun's father shook his head: "No."

Chen Yi: "Well, let the police look for him. Can you go back and wait for news? Don't be idle. Think carefully about where he might have gone.

Don’t worry too much. A student who has been in a high-pressure environment for a long time and is suddenly freed may go somewhere to have fun.”

The preliminary guess is, did he go to an Internet cafe?

Du Xun could sneak out to surf the Internet even in Qingshi's environment, but now that he has free time, it is hard for him to hold back.

Du Xun's father thought about it and felt that it made sense. He felt relieved and left the Municipal Bureau after saying thank you.

"Distribute the task of finding the person and ask the police officers in each jurisdiction within a radius of 50 kilometers to go to the Internet cafe to look for him." Chen Yi said to Zhuo Yun in the Municipal Bureau.

Zhuo Yun nodded: "Yes, I'll go right away."

Chen Yi: "Also, go retrieve the surveillance footage from Qingshi and its vicinity to determine the direction Du Xun left. It would be best if we can find him directly."

Zhuo Yun: "Understood."
