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

Chapter 240 Is he still alive?

After the main meeting, there were smaller meetings.

The small meeting was naturally less formal than the large meeting. All the criminal police captains of An'nan City Bureau gathered together, each with a cigarette in their hand, waiting for Wen Mo to arrive.

Chai Tao nudged He Jinbo with his elbow: "Old He..."

He Jinbo glared at him, and Chai Tao immediately changed his tune, speaking in a friendly tone: "Deputy Captain He."

"Hmm, Tao'er, you go ahead."

"You... never mind, I won't argue with you. I just want to ask what to do with those three million in funding?"

He Jinbo frowned: "What funds? That's embezzled money! Besides, don't ask me about this."

"Our Jiaxing Criminal Investigation Brigade hasn't paid out bonuses for six months."

Yan Bin spoke from across the table: "The same goes for Chengnan."

"It's still in the north of the city!"

He Jinbo thought of his former employer, but his position was different now, so he immediately retorted: "At this critical juncture, the leaders of the Municipal Bureau are all very worried. Don't jump into a fire pit."

"If we're talking about responsibility, Mad Dog and Ding San are both from your jurisdiction. Director Yang hasn't even settled accounts with you yet, and you still want money?"

After He Jinbo finished his rant, several people visibly rolled their eyes.

He Jinbo quickly took out Zhonghua cigarettes and began distributing them.

"Brothers, you need to be aware of your responsibilities. Besides, it takes time to turn embezzled funds into operating funds."

"Didn't you all get reward money for the case we solved not long ago? So, let's all work together and not be like that Liao Guohua from before, always keeping his distance from us."

Everyone took the cigarettes. He Jinbo tossed one to Yang Jinwen and one to Yao Weihua. Cai Ting reached out her hand, and He Jinbo gave her one as well.

When it was the cat's turn, he ignored it.

The cat sniffed, looking innocent, like a stray cat that always seemed out of place among the house cats.

Chai Tao nodded: "That's right, the case isn't finished yet, it's too early to talk about this."

He Jinbo said, "That's right. Mad Dog is from the south of the city, and Ding San's area of ​​activity is in the Jiaxing area. You need to find out where these two went."

"I'm inclined to believe they're dead."

Everyone turned their heads to look at Yang Jinwen.

"Think about it, two gangsters, one disappeared on May 5th, and the other went missing on May 7th. What's today? May 12th."

Those who live in society can't just disappear completely. Even if they run away or go to Yuncheng, they still have to explain things to their subordinates, right?

Royal Water Club and Emperor Nightclub are not small businesses; they generate substantial revenue every night. Do you think they'd just let things go unchecked?

Chai Tao said, "If that's the case, then it will be very difficult to investigate. Those two bastards must have a lot of enemies."

At this moment, Wen Mo came in with a stack of documents and replied, "We still have to investigate. It concerns lives, so we must find out the truth."

Upon seeing this, everyone immediately stood up.

Wen Mo gestured for everyone to sit down, saying, "Please don't be shy, everyone."

"As for finding Mad Dog and Ding San, instead of letting your subordinates investigate, you should go find people in the underworld. Cats have their ways, and rats have their ways. Carefully investigate their relationships, and you might be able to find their whereabouts."

He Jinbo nodded: "Yes, Director Wen still has a way."

"In addition, you don't need to worry about the poisoning issue. Leave it to Su Qiang's action team and the anti-drug brigade. As for the organized crime issue, do a thorough screening. Don't tolerate any of them who have committed crimes."

Let me make this clear first: no pleading or seeking special treatment is allowed! Anyone caught doing so will be dealt with according to the law!

After Wen Mo finished speaking, everyone's eyes were fixed on Chai Tao.

Chai Tao's face immediately darkened, and he couldn't help but swallow. He hesitated to speak, but because Wen Mo was there, he dared not argue.

Wen Mo continued, "The three murder cases that have been discovered will be handled by Yang Jinwen's major crime unit. Everyone else, hurry up and find Mad Dog and Ding San. Even if they are just corpses, we must find them."

No one dared to be negligent and immediately agreed. Chai Tao had the loudest voice and the most intense expression.

The more he acted like this, the more strange the way others looked at him became.

Early the next morning.

Old Cui was led into the interrogation room, and when he saw the person sitting in the chair, his pupils suddenly contracted.

Yang Jinwen stared at him calmly, his tone even more amiable, as if asking with concern like an old friend, "Are you alright?"

Are you alright? The bullet was removed all night, the anesthesia hadn't worn off yet, I didn't sleep a wink, and the wound was stitched up during the day. I was brought to the interrogation room early this morning.

Old Cui certainly wouldn't dare say that. He smiled and said, "Officer, I've said what I needed to say. You don't need to interrogate me. Anyway, I'm not going to live."

Yang Jinwen nodded: "Yes, you definitely won't survive..."

Old Cui sat down in the tiger chair. Because his right arm was wrapped in bandages, he wasn't handcuffed. The police officer on duty stood behind him, keeping a close eye on him.

He flipped his left hand over and said, "That's it..."

"Old Cui, you're not married and don't have children, but you should think more about your parents. They're getting old and it hasn't been easy for them. If you don't want to worry about them after you die, you should at least cooperate a little."

Your parents live in the countryside, right? They work so hard tending their few acres of land, and they have to pay grain taxes every year. Whether the harvest is good or not depends entirely on the weather.

If the village chief or nearby villagers could help them more, it would lighten their burden somewhat.

Old Cui, who had been holding his head high, suddenly lost his arrogance upon hearing these words.

"Don't drag my parents into this. Just tell me, what do you want?"

Yang Jinwen nodded: "Where is Ding San?"

Old Cui frowned: "No, how would I know where he is?"

"You were involved in drug trafficking, how could you not know?"

"Third Brother... Third Brother usually doesn't contact me; it's his driver who contacts me."

"What's the driver's name?"

“Feng Wenbin.” Yao Weihua flipped through the list in his hand and whispered to Yang Jinwen, “This person is not on the list of people to be arrested.”

Yang Jinwen nodded: "Tell me about this Feng Wenbin."

Old Cui replied, "This kid is very young, in his twenties. I don't know his exact age, and I don't know what he did before either."

Every time I need goods, it's my third brother who asks him to deliver them to me.

The last time we contacted each other was on May 6th, and the batch of goods you checked was also delivered by Feng Wenbin on that day.

As for the third brother, we met him at the Emperor Nightclub at the beginning of the month. Besides him, Mad Dog was also there.

What did you talk about at the time?

"We didn't talk about much, just women and business."

"Are Mad Dog and Ding San acting normally?"

Old Cui shook his head: "Nothing unusual, just like usual."

Yang Jinwen took the two photos from Cai Ting and showed them to Lao Cui.

Do you know these two girls?

Old Cui leaned forward, looked closely, and nodded: "She looks familiar. She seems to be the girl who sells beer at the Emperor Nightclub, Mad Dog's woman."

"They're dead, do you know that?"

Old Cui's expression immediately turned serious: "Dead? Who killed him?"

"That's what you'll have to tell us."

"No, you're not wronging me, are you? I've only ever wronged one person in my life, I really didn't do any of these things!"

"Did Mad Dog and Ding San use drugs?"

"Neither Ding San nor I get involved with this stuff. Mad Dog has been using it for years, otherwise he wouldn't have dragged us into doing it."

"Tell me about the night you killed Yan Jun."

"Officer, I've already confessed. I killed someone. I admit it."

"Besides you and Ding San, who else participated in beating Yan Jun that night?"

"Lei Zi, shrimp..."

“Tell me your real name.”

"Lei Xiaokai, Xiao Xia."

Yao Weihua ran his finger across the list of people to be arrested, and after looking through it, he whispered to Yang Jinwen, "He's not on the list."

Yang Jinwen's gaze sharpened as he looked at Old Cui: "Where are these two people?"

"I don't know, I don't have any connection with them."

Yang Jinwen stood up: "Let's rest for a while. Oh, and give him a cigarette."

Yao Weihua took out a cigarette, lit it, and handed it to Lao Cui.

“Our Captain Yang doesn’t usually treat people like you well. The fact that he’s offering you a cigarette is already a big favor. Don’t be ungrateful.”

After hesitating for a moment, Old Cui lowered his head and reached out to take it.

Once outside the interrogation room, several people immediately gathered around Yang Jinwen.

He pondered for a moment and said, "This matter is not simple. Not only did Ding San disappear, but Mad Dog also disappeared at almost the same time."

In that case, Sister Cai, you should dig deeper into the story of Gong Zhen; this woman is not simple.

Old Yao, you're familiar with things in the underworld, go and find out where Ding San and Mad Dog are, see if anyone knows where they are.

Qi Bin, go and contact the Chengnan Criminal Police Brigade, find out where Feng Wenbin, Lei Xiaokai, and Xiao Xia are.

So many people have suddenly disappeared; something must have happened.

"Yes," everyone responded and began to move about.

Yang Jinwen and Maozi returned to the interrogation room.

Old Cui had already smoked down to the filter, but the cigarette butt remained between his fingers, his expression grave. Clearly, after being interrogated by Yang Jinwen, he also sensed that something was amiss.

Yang Jinwen asked, "Would you like another one?"

Old Cui glanced at the cigarette butt, and then the police officer guarding him stepped forward and took the cigarette butt from his hand.

"Officer, I'm wondering, you keep asking me about Lao San's whereabouts, do you think something happened to him? That you haven't caught him?"

Following his train of thought, Yang Jinwen asked, "If Ding San were to get into trouble, who do you think would target him?"

"The three siblings of the Cao family."

"reason?"

“In February, I went to cause trouble for them at the request of Lao San and Mad Dog. Whether it’s Royal Water Club or Emperor Nightclub, they are my mortal enemies.”

"Besides the three Cao siblings, do Mad Dog and Ding San have any other enemies?"

"That means they both want to kill each other."

"why?"

"It's all about money. Mad Dog thinks he's given the third brother a lot enough, but the third brother thinks he's given too little. Besides drug trafficking, he also runs a fake liquor business."

The alcohol at Mad Dog Nightclub is all supplied by Ding San; it's all counterfeit alcohol, and people have died from it before.

Yang Jinwen nodded, staring at Lao Cui, and suddenly asked, "Cui Wang, in November 1994, you drowned Yan Jun in the pool. At the time, were you sure he was dead?"

"Why do you ask?"

As soon as Old Cui finished speaking, he seemed to remember something, his gaze sharpened, and his heart pounded.
