The Shuang Huang gang might not have been large in scale, and they hadn't committed any major crimes. However, they had been entrenched at the window of Huacheng City for a long time, and they continued to commit crimes around the train station.
Not only did they have a bad impact on society, but they also seriously affected the city's image in the eyes of tourists and outsiders who came on business.
Because it was impossible to fully investigate and calculate the details of the case by catching the thieves in the gang, if they wanted to eliminate the gang, they had to catch the leaders, Huang Anhu and Huang Ansheng.
However, the Shuang Huang brothers had close ties with the idle members of society in the old city, and they had escaped the police several times.
The drones were used this time to remotely investigate where the Shuang Huang gang members would gather the stolen goods after they succeeded. Then, they would use all means to keep an eye on that spot.
They would wait for the Shuang Huang gang to show up or organize people to move the stolen goods.
For this operation, not only did they use the police command vehicle, which had yet to complete the software and hardware design, but they also used drones. All the police officers at the train station and the two branches in East City were on standby.
Qu Sen's car was parked on the side of the road in an alley opposite the train station. Other than him, Liu Zhiquan and Deputy Director Xiao from the train station were also in the car.
After chatting for a while, Deputy Director Xiao, who had a military background, quickly became familiar with Qu Sen. First, he asked about Qu Sen's current situation in the army, and then he talked about the interesting things that happened when he was a company commander before he was transferred to the military.
After talking for a while, Qu Sen asked curiously, "Director Xiao, after these thieves and robbers are caught, is there no better way to punish them other than to detain them?"
"You're angry just talking about it." When Deputy Director Xiao heard Qu Sen's question, he immediately revealed an expression that looked like he didn't know whether to be angry or amused. "You don't know, but these Xiao Mao thieves are really different from other thieves and robbers.
It's as if they've discussed it beforehand. Once they're caught, their attitude is very good. They'll accept the punishment and pay the compensation.
There were two cases where the owner and the woman who was robbed clearly exaggerated the loss of property, and the kid who was caught actually admitted it. Not only did he pay according to the amount, but he also apologized with a very sincere attitude. His words about turning over a new leaf were very smooth.
In the end, the owner said that he wouldn't pursue the matter. Other than detaining them for a few days and fining them, what else can we do? Even if you want to sentence them, the amount involved in the case is not enough! "
"Oh, this is really interesting." Qu Sen couldn't help laughing after hearing Deputy Director Xiao's introduction.
"Hmm, isn't that interesting? Don't be fooled by the fact that the amount of money involved in each of these cases isn't large, but after a long period of time, it's still quite frightening. We've conservatively estimated that it's probably over a million now. "
"So many?" When Liu Zhiquan heard the figure of over a million, he couldn't help but sigh. He was usually quiet, except for when it came to technology.
"That's right. According to the information we've collected, that 'Shuang Huang' will collect all the stolen money and stolen goods from all their subordinates before giving them a unified 'salary'. I heard that there's even a performance commission."
"Talented!" Qu Sen couldn't think of any other words to describe the two main culprits. He couldn't help but ask, "Aren't those two locals? Why do they always appear in the old town? Are they that hard to catch?"
"You don't know, but the composition of our Flower City's population is too complicated. There are many permanent residents. Especially in the old town areas, the road conditions are complicated, and the flow of people is chaotic. We installed a batch of cameras in this area before, but in less than three days, they were all gone, along with the video cables.
The day before yesterday, we found a few in the second-hand electronics market, and we're following the trail now. "
"Then when we catch the 'Shuang Huang' gang, are there no clues in terms of stolen goods?"
"We've been investigating, but there's never been any stolen goods in the city that were stolen or robbed by this gang. We suspect that 'Shuang Huang' has sold all the stolen goods to other places.
I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but this characteristic has almost become our guide to solving cases. If the stolen goods around the train station and the old town area are found locally, or if the value of the single case is huge, then we can basically conclude that it's the work of scattered thieves. "
"When they commit crimes, they know how to control the value of the cases?" Qu Sen was completely shocked.
"Heh …" Deputy Director Xiao smiled bitterly and helplessly before saying, "Once, someone from 'Shuang Huang' snatched a gold chain from a tourist's neck. It was worth tens of thousands of yuan.
Considering that this obviously far exceeded the value of a single case of 'Shuang Huang', the local police station determined that it was a single gang of thieves who committed the crime.
In the end, before dawn, the gold chain was placed in a cigarette box and thrown into the yard of the police station. There was also a note in the cigarette box with the words' Sorry, I'll be careful next time! 'written on it.
The lost item was found, and the tourists even gave the police station a silk banner. This is embarrassing for us. "
Seeing that Qu Sen and Liu Zhiquan didn't quite understand, Deputy Director Xiao smiled bitterly and said, "The tourists only saw the lost item, but didn't see the people who were caught. They might have thought that we were in cahoots with the robbers."
"…" When Qu Sen heard this, he really didn't know what to say.
One had to know that when it came to petty thieves, it was too difficult to expect them to keep their hands clean, hand over all the things they stole to the 'organization', and even spit out what they took.
For 'Shuang Huang' to be able to do this, they were indeed very capable.
"Team Leader, it's raining." Just when Deputy Director Xiao wanted to complain a little more, Liu Zhiquan suddenly said.
Qu Sen and Deputy Director Xiao also noticed the raindrops that continuously fell on the car's windows.
"It's raining, can our plane still fly?" Deputy Director Xiao asked worriedly.
"In theory, as long as there's no thunder or wind of force seven or above. In the case of moderate rain, the Type One General Reconnaissance Drone we used today can just barely fly. A light rain like this is no problem at all. "Qu Sen looked at the size and density of the raindrops outside the car and answered.
"That's good. Huacheng usually only has showers during this season. It'll be over in a while."
Just as Deputy Director Xiao finished speaking, the car's console sounded, "Car number one, car number one."
"Car number one received, please speak." From the voice, one could tell that the person speaking was the boss of the city bureau. Deputy Director Xiao immediately picked up the console to respond.
"The rain outside right now, will it affect the drone's ability to fly?"
"Light rain and wind of force three or four, almost no effect." Qu Sen took the report from Deputy Director Xiao's hands.
"That's good. I've already communicated with the weather station. Rain in some areas, but it won't last more than two hours. Wind of force two. "
"No problem at all."
While Qu Sen was communicating with the command center, Deputy Director Xiao looked at the nervous Liu Zhiquan in front and said, "Little Liu, relax a little. The 'Double Yellow' gang is afraid of making a move in the rain. They might get caught or leave clues when they escape. So under normal circumstances, this kind of situation won't happen. "
Hearing this, Liu Zhiquan's tense nerves finally relaxed a little.
Time slowly passed, and the weather station was as unreliable as ever. The rain that was forecast to stop in two hours didn't stop. Instead, it seemed to be getting heavier.
"If this rain continues until the second half of the night, I'm afraid we won't get anything tonight." Deputy Director Xiao looked at the increasingly dense rain outside and said in a low voice.
"It's okay. As long as they keep moving around this area, we'll keep an eye on them sooner or later." Qu Sen knew that because of the 'Double Yellow' gang's continuous crimes, the Railway Station Branch was under a lot of pressure to solve the case.
"Yes, they can't escape." Deputy Director Xiao nodded, but his brows were still slightly furrowed.
"Car one, car one, please reply if you hear me." Just as the car fell into a brief silence, the console sounded again, but this time the voice was very urgent.
"Car one received, please speak!" Deputy Director Xiao grabbed the console and responded.
"Informant reported that about three minutes ago, a man suspected to be Huang Ansheng was spotted near the Construction Bank in the middle of North Second Hutong. He was traveling from west to east. He was wearing a purple poncho and was riding a purple or black Kun bike. "
Halfway through the words on the console, Qu Sen had already woken up the laptop from standby mode. At almost the same time, Liu Zhiquan opened the door and took the box containing the drone out.
"Release it in twenty seconds." Under Deputy Director Xiao's watchful gaze, Qu Sen started the drone's self-check program.
"Drone number one will be released in twenty seconds." Deputy Director Xiao immediately reported on the console.
In fact, it only took about ten seconds for the drone to complete the self-check. Then, the drone immediately lifted off and flew quickly in the direction of the middle of North Second Hutong.
Because of the waterproof coating on the drone's lens, the image transmitted back was very clear. Qu Sen listened to Deputy Director Xiao's prompts and constantly corrected the course. In a little more than a minute, the drone flew over the Construction Bank.
Then, it flew east to search for the suspect wearing a purple poncho and riding a woman's bicycle.
While Qu Sen controlled the drone number one to search, the drone number two controlled by Li Ying and the drone number three controlled by Zhou Li were rushing in the direction of the suspect at the fastest cruising speed.
However, their location was far from the middle of North Second Hutong, and it would take a few minutes to reach the predetermined location.
Although the drone's camera's night vision was very good, the discrimination rate for colors, especially dark colors, was not very high. Basically, colors such as purple and dark gray were basically different shades of black in the transmitted image.
Fortunately, at this time of the rainy day, there were very few pedestrians outside the old city area. Although most of the people riding bicycles were wearing ponchos, a man more than 1.7 meters tall riding a woman's bicycle was easy to distinguish from the appearance.
Qu Sen controlled the drone to search east along North Second Hutong for about three minutes and did not find the suspected target. He thought that the distance of the search had exceeded the normal distance of a bicycle in three to five minutes on a rainy day.
He said to Deputy Director Xiao, "Director Xiao, it is impossible to ride a bicycle so far on a rainy day unless you pedal hard."
"Drone number one, search west from North First Hutong. Drone number two, search west from North Third Hutong. Drone number three, search along the current route to the intersection of Xinle Internet Cafe and search south along Wenhua Road. Drone number three, pay attention to the small intersections along the way. "
"Drone number one, roger."
"Drone number two, roger."
