You're supposed to be a security officer, what case are you solving?

Chapter 153 Capture!

Spring Breeze Lane, 611 Video Arcade.

It was 11:40 p.m.

He Jinbo and his group stood under a long string of colored lights, watching the man riding on the motorcycle.

The man glanced at them briefly before riding his bicycle slowly down the slope.

The motorcycle engine roared, and the headlights shone brightly on the road ahead.

In an instant, He Jinbo shouted, "Move!"

Zheng Kang and Jiang Jianbing darted out like mad dogs, and the people behind them were also very fast, leaping out of the yard in just a few steps.

Immediately, the motorcycle revved up and sped forward!

"do not move!"

He Jinbo shouted, "Block the way! Quick, don't let them get away!"

Zheng Kang had just run out when the motorcycle sped past him. He reached out and grabbed the back seat, but immediately let go.

Even so, he was carried forward and tripped and fell.

"Fuck me!"

Jiang Jianbing ran up from behind, pulled out his gun, aimed twice, but dared not fire.

Yang Jinwen ran past him like a gust of wind.

Ahead was a narrow alley, but below were dozens of steps.

At this moment, the motorcycle was plunging downwards, and the rider was very skilled, showing no signs of tipping over.

At the very bottom is a main road; a motorcycle can speed off and disappear in no time!
Without further hesitation, Yang Jinwen lifted his shirt, pulled out a gun from the holster at his waist, forcefully pulled the safety off, pointed the gun at the night sky, and pulled the trigger three times in succession.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The Type 54 pistol made a loud noise, spitting out three sparks in the darkness.

The gunshot startled the man on the motorcycle below, causing him and his motorcycle to fall to the ground.

Because the steps were steep, people and vehicles were tumbling down, and motorcycles sparked as they scraped against the stone steps.

Jiang Jianbing and Maozi jumped down quickly, but because it was too dark and only the streetlights below provided some light, it was easy for them to twist their ankles.

Sure enough, when Jiang Jianbing was halfway through the jump, he felt a sharp pain in his ankle and immediately squatted down.

Yang Jinwen and Maozi were surprisingly agile, and by the time the man fell onto the road, they were left with only a dozen or so steps.

But the man reacted quickly, got up, covered his arm, and ran forward.

"You motherfucker!" Cat cursed.

Although Yang Jinwen was holding a gun, he didn't dare to take the man down.

The person's face is unclear, and it's unclear why they ran away. If the other party is not the perpetrator in this case, firing a shot rashly could easily get us into trouble.

Yang Jinwen and Maozi chased after each other, widening the distance between them by more than ten meters.

Just then, a piercing horn blared down the main road.

Yang Jinwen looked back and saw Wen Mo driving up after them.

Seeing this, Yang Jinwen and Maozi both breathed a sigh of relief and slowed their pace.

Wen Mo stepped on the gas, overtook the fleeing man, turned the steering wheel, and swerved the car to block the road ahead.

The cat started moving, raised its feet, and unleashed a flying kick.

He kicked the man in the back, and the two of them fell to the ground.

Yang Jinwen ran forward and knocked the man down with a knee strike.

Then, he slammed his knee into the other man's waist and thrust the pistol into the back of his head.

"Don't move, or I'll kill you!"

The man was face down with his arms outstretched.

The cat got up and, imitating Xu Guoliang, stomped hard on the suspect's thigh and then kicked his legs apart.

The man let out a howl, bracing himself with one hand on the ground while trying to grab the gun with the other, but Yang Jinwen grabbed him with one hand and twisted it towards the back of his head.

The man's left arm made a cracking sound; it was dislocated.

At this moment, He Jinbo and Zheng Kang caught up and performed the same actions as before the arrest.

Kicks, arm wrestling, belt pulling, handcuffing—it's still part of the arrest process, and we haven't successfully captured him yet. A few minor injuries won't hurt him; in fact, they'll help with the pressure later.

The man was lifted up, his pants falling to his knees.

Several flashlights shone on his face, and only then could everyone see what he looked like.

She has long hair, small eyes, and a bright red scar on the left side of her face and neck where she had been severely burned.

The man was panting heavily; his chin had likely hit the steps, the skin was torn open, and blood was flowing freely.

He Jinbo stepped forward and shouted sternly, "Kid, listen carefully, we are from the Municipal Criminal Investigation Detachment..."

Before he could finish speaking, the cat nudged him in the back.

He Jinbo glanced at Wen Mo standing to the side and immediately changed his tune: "We're from the North City Criminal Investigation Brigade. What's our name? Why did you run away?"

"If you chase me, I'll run away. I'm not stupid."

“Your mother…” He Jinbo raised his hand and slapped him: “I told you not to be honest, I told you not to be honest!”

Wen Mo said, "Take him to the video arcade, stop the bleeding first, and interrogate him on the spot."

He Jinbo nodded.

The man was put into the car, and everyone was crammed together. Wen Mo drove back to the 611 video arcade.

Wen Mo had a first-aid kit in his car. After quickly stopping the man's bleeding, he was taken into the screening room of the video arcade and pinned down on a bench.

He Jinbo dragged a chair over, sat down in front of him, and gently patted his face.

"I ask, you answer, will you cooperate?" The man's chin was stuffed with medical cotton, held in place with tape, and the cotton was soaked with blood.

The man remained silent, but the muscles in his face were taut, and his hands were cuffed behind his back.

He Jinbo then asked, "Where is Gou Li? What is your relationship with her?"

The man pursed his lips and turned his face to one side.

He Jinbo took the photo frame handed to him by Maozi. It was a half-meter square frame with a glass surface, and there were more than a dozen photos inside.

The backgrounds of the photos all show photos taken in a photo studio. There's a family of four, then a family of three, and then two young people, a man and a woman.

This picture frame is a record of our family's history over the past few decades.

One of the girls was Gou Li.

Of course, the man in front of us is also in the photo.

Judging from their ages, the latest photo they took must have been taken many years ago. Ever since the man in front of us suffered burns on the left side of his face, the brother and sister have never taken a photo together.

He Jinbo pointed to the photo of the brother and sister in the frame and asked, word by word, "Gou Li is your sister, isn't she?"

The man glanced at the photo, his eyes flickered, and he pursed his lips tightly.

He Jinbo handed the photo frame back to the cat. At that moment, Yang Jinwen returned from outside.

At this time, most of the people living in Chunfeng Lane had gone to sleep, but after being awakened by the gunshots, some residents went out to check the situation.

Several members of the criminal investigation team were outside trying to calm things down, and Yang Jinwen went along with them.

He said, "Captain Wen, Captain He, his name is Gou Hao. The residents of Chunfeng Lane all know the brother and sister, and they have all watched movies here. On the morning of the 10th, someone saw Gou Li, but they haven't seen her in the last two days."

Upon hearing this, He Jinbo rolled up his sleeves and beckoned over Maozi and a few others.

They held up gasoline cans, blood-stained clothes in plastic bags, and black briefcases, displaying them to Gou Hao.

He Jinbo pointed at his face: "Let me tell you, you should know in your heart why I arrested you!"
Now tell me honestly, what crimes did you guys commit? Where are the others?

"If you don't talk, then you and your brother will have to take the blame. Let's see if you can handle it!"

Upon hearing this, Gou Hao gritted his teeth.

“You should know the nature of this better than we do. Murder and arson, this isn’t an ordinary case! It’s fucking a death sentence! Do you understand?”

Gou Hao nodded: "I said, don't go looking for my sister!"

Perhaps because his neck was burned, he has some problems with his vocal cords, and his voice is muffled.

A hint of joy flashed in He Jinbo's eyes, but he said calmly, "Okay, you can start from the beginning."

The other older members of the group immediately gathered around, surrounding Gou Hao completely.

"It was Zhao Xiong and his men who killed them."

"How many people exactly?"

"Two people."

Does that include you?

Gou Hao shook his head: "When I got there, they had already killed everyone."

"Zhao Xiong, what's the other one's name? What do they do for a living? Where are they from?"

"The other one is named Kou Yong. They don't have proper jobs and usually do petty theft."

Where do they live?

"I don't know, they don't have a fixed place to live."

"On what night did they kill them?"

Number nine.

"Where did you go, and who did you kill?"

"A guesthouse near the train station."

When they got to this point, everything clicked. He Jinbo's heart pounded, as did Zheng Kang and Jiang Jianbing's.

Only four days have passed since the incident, and the municipal bureau has given them a week to solve the case. If they can't solve it, the provincial bureau will come down to supervise and set up a special task force.

To solve a case before the provincial authorities issue their orders—that would be incredibly impressive!
Moreover, the position of deputy branch chief of the municipal bureau is already beckoning to He Jinbo.

Although the interrogation was important, He Jinbo couldn't help but glance at Yang Jinwen, wishing he could hug him and kiss him a couple of times.

He thought to himself, if he were in the North City Branch, wouldn't everyone be promoted?
It's much better than the Guan Yu statue hidden in Lao Fan's canteen!
Not only He Jinbo, but Zheng Kang and Jiang Jianbing were also lost in thought at this moment, thinking about the battalion commander and the deputy battalion commander...

At this moment, Wen Mo coughed, interrupting the old folks' daydreams.

He Jinbo quickly straightened his expression and asked Gou Hao, "How many people did they kill?"

"Seven."

"Why were you so ruthless? Why did you have to kill so many people?"

Gou Hao swallowed hard and replied, "Zhao Xiong said that since he had already killed two people, he killed everyone in the guesthouse."

Which two did they kill first?

"Du Licheng and a woman."

"Whose guesthouse were Zhao Xiong and Kou Yong heading to?"

"It's Du Licheng."

"why?"

"Du Licheng got my sister pregnant, and Zhao Xiong likes my sister."

"Was it Gou Li who ordered him to kill the person?"
