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

Chapter 82 Taking the Lead!
Four days ago, Liang Xiaojun and his brother committed theft on a bus. After succeeding, they got off at the Workers' Cultural Center.

While they were checking the stolen wallets in the alley, two masked robbers suddenly pointed guns at the back of their heads and confiscated their ID cards and the stolen wallets.

He Jinbo paused for a moment, then continued, "We compared the heights of the two masked men and the two thugs in the car, and they are two different people."

Yang Guochang pondered for a moment and said, "Then they must be in cahoots."

He Jinbo nodded: "That's our analysis too. We took the sketches drawn by Yang Jinwen and showed them to these people. Liang Xiaojun, Liang Xiaobing, and Tian Xiong's gang didn't recognize these two people."

Wen Mo asked, "What about those gangsters in An'nan City? Do you know any of them?"

Zheng Kang continued, "The patrol officers and joint defense team of our local police station have already been inquiring everywhere."

These gangsters only operate at night; we won't know the results until tomorrow morning..."

Before Zheng Kang could finish speaking, Chai Tao, who had been silent until now, said, "Our Jiaxing branch is also inquiring around, mainly targeting gangs in three-bedroom apartments, to see if we can get any clues."

In addition, our investigation along the national highway yesterday confirmed that after committing the crime, this group of people must have fled to another city..."

Upon hearing this, He Jinbo's face turned a deep, unpleasant shade of liver.

"No, Lao Chai, have you investigated carefully? If this group really escaped from An'nan City, how are we going to catch them?"

Chai Tao was relieved of all responsibility, since the top leader had given the order to let the Chengbei branch investigate and arrest the suspects, so the Jiaxing branch naturally didn't feel much pressure.

But Chai Tao didn't dare show it on his face. He said with a solemn expression, "Old He, I can stand by what I said. I only got back in the early hours of this morning and haven't closed my eyes for a moment."

Listen to me, Lingmeng County and Longmen Town of Dayan City are located at the border.

We found that this group of people got off the national highway in Lingmeng County and went to Longmen Town.

There is a motorcycle repair shop on the highway from Longmen Town to Dayan City. The incident occurred two hours later, around 8:30 a.m. yesterday.

The repair shop owner had just opened the door when he saw two motorcycles parked on the road, with exactly five people on each one.

The shop owner thought they were there to get their bikes repaired, but to his surprise, they immediately rode off as soon as they saw him come out.

He Jinbo hurriedly asked, "Did he see these people's faces?"

Chai Tao shook his head: "It was too far away, I couldn't see it clearly."

Zheng Kang squinted: "So, this group of people fled to Dayan City?"

"That's hard to say, after all, Dayan City is not under our jurisdiction."

Wen Mo pondered, "First, we need to find out whether these five thugs are actually locals of An'nan City."

Only if we can confirm that the perpetrator came from another city to commit the crime can we issue a request for assistance from the Dayang City Public Security Bureau.

Lu Shaohua then spoke up: "Captain Wen is right. We need to rule out the possibility that the perpetrators are not from our side, otherwise we will definitely have a grudge against the Dayan City Public Security Bureau."

……

The meeting room continued to discuss the details of the 705 major robbery case. Yang Jinwen leaned against the wall, listening attentively and taking quick notes.

Because he was a little shorter, Maozi stood on tiptoe and tried to see the notebook in Yang Jinwen's hand.

Good heavens, what is this all about?

Cat saw that Yang Jinwen's notebook was filled with clues, and his handwriting was so skillful that it could connect three or four characters in one stroke. Cat couldn't recognize a single one of the characters.

Moreover, Yang Jinwen was carrying a large notebook, about the size of a men's handbag, and he had already filled many pages with notes.

The cat looked at the notes in its notebook; there were only two entries.

First: The perpetrator may not be a local. Second: The perpetrator may have fled to Dayan City.

Suddenly, the cat felt like it was being attacked from a lower dimension.

The meeting continued, and the opinions of Yang Guochang and Wen Mo were also two clues that Maozi recorded.

First, we investigated whether the perpetrators were local residents of An'nan City. We also solicited clues from the public, through television stations, newspapers, and local police stations.

A reward will be given for providing clues. For example, providing the identity information of the criminals will earn you 5,000 yuan; if you can directly provide the location of the criminals' hideout, the reward will be as high as 20,000 yuan.

Moreover, this bonus also applies to investigators. If the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Chengbei Branch catches someone, the bonus is 5,000 yuan per person, so five people would be worth 25,000 yuan.

This slightly boosted the confidence of He Jinbo and the others. After all, a bonus of 25,000 yuan, even if split equally, would amount to several months' salary.

If they're incredibly lucky and manage to capture these people, there will be merit and promotion waiting for them.

Secondly, Wen Mo, as the captain of the An'nan City branch, was preparing to go to Dayan City this afternoon to check on the situation at the Dayan City Bureau, and Chai Tao went with him.

Finally, and most importantly, we need to trace the origin of the firearm based on the shell casings left at the crime scene.

According to statements taken from bus passengers, it has now been confirmed that at least two assailants were armed at the time of the incident.

The gunman was holding a sawed-off double-barreled shotgun, and a shell casing with a diameter of 18.5mm was retrieved from the scene.

Because shotgun bullets vary greatly and there is no fixed standard, and this shotgun was most likely assembled in an underground workshop, it is difficult to trace.

In addition, there was a criminal wearing a black mask who was holding a pistol that appeared to be a replica of a Type 64 police pistol.

However, he did not fire the shot, so the origin of the gun cannot be determined based on the bullet trajectory.

Furthermore, even if we wanted to test the ballistics, sending someone to the provincial department would be a very troublesome matter.

As a result, the Chengbei Branch and Annan City Bureau had no choice but to search for people with guns to see if they could find any clues.

If these five criminals are all from other cities, and there are no leads, the only option is to go to other places and use guns to find them.

So when Wen Mo went to the Dayan City Public Security Bureau, all he had were sketches of two criminals and a request for help in finding them with a gun, which inevitably involved treating them to food and drinks.

During the meeting, Yang Jinwen tried to speak several times, but He Jinbo stopped him with a look each time.

As soon as the meeting ended and Yang Guochang, Wen Mo and others left, Lu Shaohua, He Jinbo, Zheng Kang and Jiang Jianbing immediately surrounded them.

He Jinbo affectionately pulled Yang Jinwen's arm: "Little Yang, come, sit down."

Jiang Jianbing said, "Xiao Yang, are you thirsty? Would you like Maozi to pour you a glass of water?"

Xu Guoliang said with a smile, "Xiao Yang, I saw you taking notes very quickly just now. Can we take a look at your notebook?"

“Exactly.” Jiang Jianbing nodded. “I saw it too. You wrote so quickly and took the most notes. You must have something on your mind!”

Yang Jinwen nodded and handed over the notebook he was holding.

He Jinbo was the fastest and snatched it away immediately, while the others gathered around him, peering and craning their necks.

He Jinbo froze, like a silly roe deer, blinked, licked his fingers, turned the page, licked his fingers again, and turned the page again.

His eyes were blurry, but he still couldn't make out what Yang Jinwen had written; it looked like scribbles.

Jiang Jianbing said in bewilderment, "Xiao Yang, I'm not talking about you, but when did you lose your laptop? Even the technical experts couldn't figure out what you were writing. You've done an excellent job of keeping it a secret! You can't keep things from your own people!"
