Fearing they might not have enough men, Wang Shouyi specifically asked Zhao Jiwei to accompany Wu Mingcheng and the others.
When Zhao Jiwei learned from Li Dawei that Wu Mingcheng was leading the team handling the case,
Although Zhao Jiwei felt much more at ease after Wu Mingcheng's guidance and knew to take things one step at a time, he still couldn't help feeling envious.
Soon, they arrived at Beige Village in Nanqiao Town, which was mentioned in the confessions of several thieves, and found the twenty-third household that had just entered the village.
The gate to the courtyard was very simple, secured only by a lock commonly found in rural areas.
Seeing this, Li Dawei didn't say a word and was about to kick the door open.
Chen Xincheng stopped him abruptly, saying,
"No, what's the rush? Do you even know what's going on inside? You just want to kick the door down?"
What if there are armed criminals inside? We must be cautious when on missions; anything can happen.
Li Dawei said subconsciously,
“I…I…I……………………”
Upon witnessing this scene, Wu Mingcheng shook his head but remained silent.
However, he nimbly climbed the wall and cautiously peered into the courtyard.
After noticing that there was no one in the yard, he jumped over the wall and into the yard.
Li Dawei and Zhao Jiwei were very agile; they followed closely behind, easily scaling the wall and entering the courtyard.
The crowd then dispersed, making sure once again that there was no one else in the courtyard.
Wu Mingcheng first went to the window of that house, looked inside, and determined that nothing unexpected would happen inside.
He went straight up and kicked the door open, walked in, and went to the stove.
Seeing this, Li Dawei, Zhao Jiwei, and the others followed Wu Mingcheng into the house.
They went to the stove and removed the straw and firewood piled on it.
Then, sure enough, they found two tightly wrapped duffel bags hidden inside the stove.
Chapter 312 Everything is ready
Seeing that they had successfully found the first batch of stolen goods, Wu Mingcheng smiled slightly and said...
"Hey, there really is something,"
After saying that, he dragged out the two bags, opened them, and what he saw immediately stunned everyone present.
Both bags were completely filled with American banknotes, crammed full.
This scene immediately stunned Chen Xincheng, Li Dawei, Zhao Jiwei, and the others.
Their monthly salary is less than ten thousand yuan, and they may never have seen so much money in their entire lives.
Zhao Jiwei was speechless upon seeing so much cash.
“This…this…this…”
Seeing this, Wu Mingcheng shook his head and said with a smile,
"Alright, take these two bags of money outside and put them in the yard."
This is nothing! There will be something truly astounding in a moment—"
Zhao Jiwei hurriedly stepped forward to pick up the bag, but when he lifted it, he found it was too heavy to lift.
Seeing this, Li Dawei stepped forward to help.
“Come on, Jiwei, let’s lift one together. I just realized how strong Mingcheng is; he just lifted both duffel bags out of the bag.”
Upon hearing Li Dawei's words, Zhao Jiwei realized that, not to mention intelligence, they were far inferior to Wu Mingcheng in physical ability as well.
Meanwhile, Wu Mingcheng and his men climbed up from the side and reached the rooftop.
In rural areas, houses are mostly made of earth, so the roofs are all made of earth.
He examined it carefully and finally discovered a clue.
He walked to a spot, pinched up a bit of the topsoil, and felt it between his fingertips; it was still somewhat damp.
He said to the two auxiliary police officers behind him who were on standby at any time,
"This is it, grab a shovel and start digging,"
The two auxiliary police officers quickly went down to get shovels and began digging at the spot Wu Mingcheng had pointed to.
Because it was on the roof, the thieves didn't bury it very deep.
Soon, as the auxiliary police officer dug, he felt as if the shovel had hit something.
He quickly spoke to Wu Mingcheng.
"Armed Police Officer, we've found it!"
Wu Mingcheng and the others rushed forward to take a look, and the two of them successfully dug out a suitcase.
Wu Mingcheng simply pulled his luggage bag out of the pile of dirt.
Then, he opened it and found the bag full of gold bars, watches, necklaces, and other valuable jewelry.
The piles of gold bars and jewelry truly shocked Li Dawei, Zhao Jiwei, and the others once again.
Wu Mingcheng said again,
"Alright, take this one down too, let's go to the next place,"
He couldn't help but sigh,
"If these people escape and go abroad, it will be really difficult to bring them back,"
So they went to their next and final hiding place.
Wu Mingcheng pointed to the spot under the tree and gave the instructions.
"Right here, start digging,"
Soon, several auxiliary police officers stepped forward and started working again, digging out two large suitcases.
Wu Mingcheng hurriedly stepped forward to check, and upon opening them, found two more large bags of red banknotes.
Several large bags of valuables were laid out in the courtyard, creating a rather shocking scene.
Li Dawei, Zhao Jiwei, and the others stared at the luggage bags with burning eyes, stunned and somewhat bewildered.
If you just casually give them a packet of this, they won't have to worry about anything for the rest of their lives.
Although Chen Xincheng was also somewhat shocked, he was, after all, a veteran police officer and still maintained some composure.
Needless to say, Wu Mingcheng, with his family background and connections, could have anything he wanted. This little bit of stuff wouldn't be enough to make him lose himself; it wasn't even a temptation to him.
After Wu Mingcheng and Chen Xincheng finished inventorying the valuables at the scene, they put several bags in the car and headed home.
Meanwhile, when Wu Mingcheng and his group returned to the police station, Wang Shouyi and Gao Chao were already there to greet them at the entrance.
· ·······Request flowers····· ······
After getting out of the car, Wu Mingcheng saluted Wang Shouyi.
"Chief, we have accomplished our mission; all the money has been recovered."
Wang Shouyi smiled and nodded. If this matter was successfully resolved, the Jiulihe Police Station would have truly made a name for itself.
So he asked,
"Mingcheng, where are the things?"
Wu Mingcheng glanced at the trunk and replied,
"Chief, he's in the car."
He then went to the trunk, opened the trunk door, and pulled out all the luggage bags.
The sheer volume of valuables truly shocked everyone present, but in Wang Shouyi's eyes, it was all thanks to the Jiulihe Police Station.
....... 0 ...
Wang Shouyi stepped forward, patted Wu Mingcheng on the shoulder, and immediately praised him to them.
"Mingcheng, well done, another great achievement. Xincheng, you've worked hard too. As for Li Dawei, consider it as making amends for his past mistakes."
Cao Jianhua and his apprentice Yang Shu, who were in the crowd, had just returned from a police call and only then learned of the incident.
Cao Jianhua knew that Chen Xincheng and his team had performed another great service, and seeing Chen Xincheng and Wu Mingcheng basking in the limelight, he felt genuinely uncomfortable.
Previously, he was hailed as a hero in the police station, and he was always the one taking the limelight.
But when Wu Mingcheng arrived, the situation completely changed. This kid stole all his thunder, and Cao Jianhua couldn't help but see Wu Mingcheng as a threat.
Seeing that Li Dawei and even Zhao Jiwei had benefited from Wu Mingcheng's influence, Yang Shu felt a little uneasy.
Wang Shouyi quickly told people to take several bags out of the trunk.
Then, Wu Mingcheng immediately had several thieves take turns comparing the evidence.
Once these thieves were confirmed to be genuine, it meant that the police station's work was successfully completed.
Everything was ready; all that was needed was to report it to the higher-ups.
