After a good night's sleep, Qu Sen was full of energy when he returned to the car. He drove out of the courtyard of the Psychological Intervention Center and turned right to the logistics office.
He was thinking about how he was followed by Xu Jian last time when his phone rang. After pressing the answer button, Gao Sheng's voice sounded, "When you were inside, Xu Jian wanted to get close to your car, but there were people in the courtyard and he didn't have a chance to do it. Now he's following your car. "
Qu Sen knew that Gao Sheng called him not just to inform him. He looked back through the rearview mirror and asked, "What do you need me to do?"
"Create an opportunity for him. Let's see what he wants to do." Gao Sheng's tone was very relaxed.
"No problem." Qu Sen didn't take it seriously and answered immediately.
Because he knew that Xu Jian was following him, Gao Sheng's men must also be following Xu Jian. Therefore, no matter what Xu Jian wanted to do, he had nothing to be nervous about.
Qu Sen drove a few blocks forward unhurriedly. At first, he thought about looking for a shop to go in and park his car outside to create an opportunity for Xu Jian.
Then he thought about the people and cars on the road, and Xu Jian might not dare to do anything. After pondering for a while, he turned and turned onto the side road of Binhe Road.
The side road of Binhe Road was not wide, and the south side of the road was next to the riverside park. The north side of the road was basically full of small shops that sold car decoration, car cleaning, and car washing.
Qu Sen drove forward for a while and stopped at a car wash with good business. He asked the woman who looked like the boss's wife on the roadside, "Miss, how long do I have to wait to wash the car?"
"Very soon, at most ten minutes." The woman said enthusiastically.
The car wash that Qu Sen asked about had only one washing workshop. One car was being washed inside, and there were two cars waiting outside.
The woman said that the car could be washed in ten minutes just to keep the customer. It was definitely impossible.
"Big Sister, please be on time. I'll go for a stroll and come back to get it." Qu Sen said with a smile.
"Should I wash the outside or both? Should I wax it?" When the eldest sister asked, she touched the cover of the Santana machine with her hand and said to Qu Sen, "Your car should be waxed. The paint is dry."
Qu Sen saw that there was a lot of cigarette ash in the car and asked, "How much does it cost to add wax?"
"Fifty." Big Sister quoted the price.
Qu Sen deliberately raised his voice and said, "I washed it at 40. Why don't I ask the other shops in front?"
"Okay, if you want to leave the car here, take away the valuable things in the car." The big sister answered happily. Qu Sen didn't drive a good car, and usually, 30 yuan was enough.
"Okay." Qu Sen answered and took out his police ID from his buckle. He pointed at the shade of the park across the road and said, "When you're done, just leave the car there to dry."
Gao Sheng had taught Qu Sen this action. Qu Sen's Mandarin was quite standard. However, in a place like Huacheng, people would know that he was a foreigner as soon as he opened his mouth.
He didn't want to take advantage of anyone, but he just didn't want to be fooled.
As expected, when the eldest sister saw Qu Sen put the police ID in his pocket, her smile became more enthusiastic. "You can come back in 40 minutes. I'll definitely clean it up for you."
"Okay, thanks in advance." Qu Sen pulled the handbrake and got out of the car without taking out the key.
Qu Sen heard the eldest sister calling the workers to wash the interior of the Santana first. He walked along the road for a while and turned into an alley when he saw it. He saw a roadside stall not far away and walked over to find an empty table. He asked the boss for a pot of flower tea.
When Qu Sen's figure disappeared into the alley, a black Ford parked south of the car wash started up. It crossed the road and stopped in front of the car wash. Xu Jian lowered the car window and shouted to the eldest sister who was watching the workers clean the interior of the Santana, "Boss, car wash."
"Oh, coming …"
— —
Qu Sen sat at the roadside stall for a while. A white Great Wall SUV stopped at the side of the road. Gao Sheng got out of the car and sat beside Qu Sen.
He drank three cups of tea in a row and called the boss to refill the tea. Then he said to Qu Sen, "You really know how to enjoy life."
"Don't talk about that. Reimburse me for the 40 RMB for the car wash later." Qu Sen said with a smile.
"Think about the good things." Gao Sheng showed an expression that he didn't want to talk to Qu Sen. He said to the boss who came to refill the tea, "Boss, if you have anything to eat, just get me some."
Gao Sheng didn't know if it was because he didn't eat enough at noon or because he didn't eat at all. He stuffed three plates of snacks in one go with the tea and then stopped. He leaned against the back of the chair and patted his belly comfortably.
"I heard that Captain Jia made a trip for nothing?" Qu Sen asked in a low voice.
"Don't mention it. Old Jia was so angry that he cursed on the phone. He said that Vietnam was really a f * cking mess." Gao Sheng said with a face full of bad luck.
"Do you think it's Lin Haizhen's doing?" Qu Sen said his thoughts.
"Not bad. You can even think of this." Gao Sheng looked at Qu Sen and couldn't help but praise him.
"I've watched too many police and gangster movies. I can guess this kind of plot with just one guess." Qu Sen said with a hint of pride.
"We're just suspecting." Gao Sheng looked around and saw that there was no one around. He then whispered to Qu Sen about the situation that the task force had grasped.
After Bao Liang explained everything, the task force temporarily let him go and asked him to continue to keep in touch with Lin Haizhen.
Almost at the same time that Jia Chengliang left with his team, Lin Haizhen found some time to use the satellite phone to report the latest movements on Wu Entai's side.
The next day, just as Jia Chengliang brought his team to Guang Zhi, he received a notice from the Vietnamese police. Two of Wu Entai's men had a conflict with the local gangs. They shot and killed seven of the local gang members. The two men were also slashed with a watermelon knife.
Although they escaped in the end, the goods that they brought were stolen by the local gangs.
The task force had two theories about this situation:
One was that Lin Haizhen was actually acting as a spy for Wu Entai's enemies or competitors.
Another suspicion was that since Lin Haizhen was in the tourism industry, it was very likely that she controlled a smuggling and smuggling channel from Malaysia to Huacheng.
Therefore, he wanted to take over the work of Azrael's entry. He even wanted to control the distribution channel so that Wu Entai would only be a pure supplier. This way, he could maximize the profits from the middle link.
"Did you find a channel for Wu Entai to contact the next person?" Qu Sen asked after listening to Gao Sheng's introduction.
"Eighty percent of it is still through the code on the forum." Gao Sheng said with certainty at first, then said gloomily, "But the code he used to contact the next person is much more complicated than the code he used to contact his men. We are already gathering experts to analyze and decipher it. "
"Look for that Bao Liang, isn't he quite good?"
"We were stupidly watching for so long, and in the end, we still let an outsider provide the key clues. This is embarrassing enough. Now we have to look for an outsider for help, where am I going to put my face? "
"Idiot!" Qu Sen glanced at Gao Sheng and muttered, "You criminal police are not supermen, how can you know everything? Professional things should be left to the professionals. Since that Bao Liang is talented in code, why didn't he use it? "
In fact, someone in the task force had already suggested looking for Bao Liang to help further analyze the code used by Wu Entai.
However, Gao Sheng and Jia Chengliang were both very prideful people, and they felt that it was very embarrassing to look for a half-assed police officer to help, so they rejected the idea.
Also, through the Municipal Bureau, they contacted the Provincial Department's code and code experts and asked them to help decipher the code.
Qu Sen saw that Gao Sheng was still a little hesitant, so he persuaded him again, "Captain Gao, we can't afford to waste time. Besides, that Bao Liang wants you to let him go, so he has to perform well. It would be a waste not to use him. "
"Wait for me to go back and call everyone for a meeting to discuss it," Gao Sheng said in a muffled voice.
Qu Sen saw Gao Sheng's expression and knew that he was already thinking about it, but he couldn't put down his pride, so he stopped persuading him and poured him a cup of tea with a smile.
While the two of them sat at the roadside stall and chatted, the Santana that Qu Sen had thrown away at the car wash had already been cleaned up from the inside out. After the workers finished polishing the car, they parked it under the shade of a tree on the south side of the road.
At this moment, a traffic police patrol car slowly drove over. When they saw the illegally parked car on the side of the road, a police officer immediately got out of the car to take pictures, then filled out a ticket and stuck it on the driver's seat window.
While the traffic police were busy, the car owners who had parked illegally on the side of the road noticed the situation and jogged back to their cars, then drove away in seconds.
When the traffic police drove to the opposite side of the road from the car wash, most of the illegally parked cars on the side of the road had already driven away. The traffic police in the car saw that there was still a Santana parked by the side of the road, so he got out of the car with a digital camera and a ticket.
Seeing this, the landlady of the car wash hurriedly ran across the road and said a few words to the traffic police who was about to write a ticket with a smile on her face.
After hearing this, the traffic police looked at the license plate of the Santana, took the ticket and returned to the car. Soon, he continued to drive forward.
In the silver Jetta parked at the entrance of the alley not far ahead, the paparazzi sitting in the passenger's seat saw the traffic police's car coming from behind, so he quickly patted his companion in the driver's seat.
The paparazzi who was driving glanced back through the rearview mirror, then quickly started the car and drove forward.
After the traffic police's patrol car drove away, the side road of Binhe Road, which was originally full of large and small cars, had become very empty. On the south side of the road, there were basically no other illegally parked cars except for the Santana that had just been polished.
After the car was washed, Xu Jian paid for it, looked at the time, and drove directly to Qu Sen's Santana and parked it close to it.
He lowered the window and lit a cigarette, then saw the landlady of the car wash calling the workers to prepare to wash a Benz that had just been driven into the car wash workshop. He raised the window and moved from the driver's seat to the passenger's seat.
He looked around and made sure that there were no pedestrians around, then opened the door of the passenger's seat and got out of the car.
