Seeing that they were about to leave, Xu Cheng stopped them. "It's too late, they cut the video back, meaning the truck is already gone."
Then, Xu Cheng continued watching the surveillance video.
Li Chao, Ran Jing, and the others stood there awkwardly.
When Ran Jing was about to order her subordinates to leave, the other side had already arrived at the scene.
They reported, "Chief Ran, they're very experienced. As expected, they've set up a bridging video in the surveillance area of the intersection."
Xu Cheng heard the voices of his subordinates in her ears, and he immediately blurted out, "You guys have already alerted the enemy! They will come and get the video, and if you guys take it, it means you're giving them a signal. "
Li Chao also slapped his forehead upon hearing this.
Those people were also dumb teammates.
Even Ran Jing didn't know what to say.
"Chief Ran? Did you hear me? "
"Are you stupid? Don't you think they're also monitoring you guys? Hey, bring it back and see if there are any fingerprints left. " Ran Jing had no choice. Since they already climbed up the pole, it meant they were already exposed.
She looked up at Xu Cheng, who was watching the video with his hands behind his back, and asked, "Mr. Fang … what do we do now?"
Xu Cheng didn't say anything and just stared at the video.
He was watching the video of the intersection in the city center. There were very few roads that connected to the city center, only three. He stared at the three intersections and said, "552, 337, 618, 277, 169, these five license plates, give me the information of the owners immediately."
The technician on the other side reacted quickly. He nodded and immediately searched for the license plate numbers that Xu Cheng read out in the vehicle management system.
"No problem."
"Check again, 773!"
Technician: "No problem."
Xu Cheng: "858!"
Technician: "Wait a second."
He immediately turned around and looked at Xu Cheng. "Mr. Fang, this license plate isn't registered to this car."
Ran Jing quickly responded, "Tell the comrade at the front to trace the 858 license plate."
Li Chao: "Yes."
Xu Cheng immediately interrupted, "Don't chase, they already moved the goods."
Ran Jing and the others were shocked. "How is that possible? How did you know?"
Xu Cheng: "If you don't believe me, get your people to intercept this car and check it out."
Ran Jing picked up her earpiece and shouted to the people in front of her, "Attention, Team C on Dongfeng Road, stop a truck, license plate number 858."
Team C: "It's Chief Ran."
In less than 15 minutes, the other side reported, "Chief Ran, we didn't find anything in the car."
Ran Jing frowned. "What is this carriage carrying?"
"Fish."
Ran Jing: "Alive or dead? Did you check to see if there was anything hidden in your body? "
"I checked. The fish are all alive. There is nothing hidden in their bodies."
Hearing this, Xu Cheng's eyes narrowed, and he found a key clue.
Ran Jing looked up at him and asked curiously, "How do you know that the goods have been transferred?"
Xu Cheng said, "When your subordinates went to touch the surveillance cameras, they were already exposed. They probably communicated with each other throughout the whole process. From Jiaoling Road to Dongfeng Road, based on its speed, it should only take 5 minutes, but when it disappeared from the blind spot of the surveillance cameras and appeared on Dongfeng Road, it was already 11 minutes. This means that they already transferred the goods in the extra 6 minutes."
Every analysis was very thorough, and Ran Jing directly took off her earpiece. She knew that today's mission had failed again. Not only did they alert the enemy, but they also lost the efficiency and ability of the entire police force in front of the higher-ups.
Ran Jing was very angry, angry at her subordinates. Of course, it was all because of her command, so she had a bigger responsibility. In fact, she was angry at herself for giving Xu Cheng a hard time just now, but Xu Cheng immediately found a loophole that they couldn't break through. Who knew that in the blink of an eye, not only did they waste this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but they also acted as the enemy's spies, giving them a warning and letting them escape!
This was a huge responsibility, and it was said that they would be fired.
Because for this so-called large-scale smuggling organization, the slightest mistake during the operation would alert the enemy, which meant that the entire plan would be ruined.
None of the project team members spoke, and it was very quiet. This was a big pot, and they all looked at each other.
At this moment, Ran Jing said, "I'm the main investigator for this case, and I will write the report. Everyone must be tired from these past few days, so let's go back early."
Li Chao still didn't give up and said, "Chief Ran, how about we focus on that car? Let's follow that driver. "
"Forget it, we need to think about this case in the long run." Ran Jing knew that this case basically fell apart at this point, so she needed to gather her thoughts and regroup.
Who knew that at this moment, Xu Cheng would say with his back facing them, "We did alert the enemy, but it's not like we didn't get anything."
Li Chao looked at him. "What do you mean?"
"That car was pulling fish, did you guys not think about where the fish could be pulled to?"
Li Chao: "The biggest and only seafood market in Shangcheng? The food market in South Gate? "
"That's right." Xu Cheng said, "This case probably also involves South Gate. Now, it's not like you guys don't have a target for the next step. You can keep an eye on South Gate, for example, their seafood products. If they're using fish bellies to transport flour, we can also get information about the source."
Li Chao immediately said, "From the sea!"
Xu Cheng nodded. "Indeed, we can also investigate the fishing boats."
Li Chao nodded, feeling like this case wasn't completely impossible to proceed to the next step.
He turned around and walked out of the room with his subordinates.
Ran Jing was left staring at Xu Cheng.
Xu Cheng teased, "Does my mask look good?"
"Not good." Ran Jing also teased, "But you are wearing a mask, and I can't see through you. Why don't you take off your mask and let me see?"
Xu Cheng: "Are you sure?"
Ran Jing nodded.
Xu Cheng simply took off his mask, revealing his horrifying face that was as white as a sheet of paper. Ran Jing's pupils contracted upon seeing it, which meant that she was scared for a moment.
Xu Cheng immediately put the mask back on and turned his back to her. "This case isn't hard, but it's not easy either."
Ran Jing came back to her senses from seeing his face. "You are very similar to someone I know. That aura and confidence, and that terrifying analytical ability, I thought for a moment that you were that friend of mine."
Xu Cheng turned around. "He's handsome, right?"
Ran Jing was surprised. "Why do you ask?"
Xu Cheng: "A man that can make a beauty like you remember him probably isn't bad."
Ran Jing smiled. "Mhm, I can't say he's that handsome, but I found that after going around and meeting a lot of men in society, I actually like that friend of mine. Unfortunately, he's already taken."
Xu Cheng's body shook.
