Yangma Village, Qin Island.
The police's location was at the east entrance of Yangma Village, where Ma Shengkai lived.
In other words, Ma Shengkai was probably hiding at home.
This judgment surprised Han Bin. At the same time, he became more vigilant. Ma Shengkai must be very brave to hide at home after robbing and killing someone.
Seven years ago, he ran faster than anyone else. Even his accomplice, Song Yingfa, couldn't find him.
Han Bin sat in the car and didn't get out. Wang Xiao turned his head and asked, "Captain Han, do you want me to take some people around to see if Ma Shengkai is at home?"
Han Bin thought about it. "The people in this village are all related. Who can guarantee that they have nothing to do with Ma Shengkai? Maybe they'll inform Ma Shengkai after you ask around."
Wang Xiao said, "I also think this is a trap set by Ma Shengkai. He shouldn't be at home. As long as we go to arrest him, he'll get the news and run away."
Zhao Ming said, "Captain Han, you're worried that Ma Shengkai's family will tip us off, right? Let's monitor their phones. If they dare to tip us off, we can find Ma Shengkai's hiding place through the phone's GPS."
Han Bin said, "That's true. I'm just afraid that the suspect is cunning and communicates in a way we don't know. "
Zhao Ming smiled. "No matter how cunning a fox is, it can still fight against a hunter."
Wang Xiao said, "This isn't an ordinary fox. It's an old fox that the captain and Captain Ma haven't been able to catch for seven years. Don't drop the ball at this critical moment."
"Listen to yourself. Without Captain Han and your orders, I wouldn't dare to act rashly."
"Ring ring ring …" Han Bin's phone rang. He pressed the answer button. "Hello."
"Okay."
"Okay, I got it."
"We'll be there in five minutes."
With that, Han Bin hung up. "Zhao Ming, turn around."
"Captain Han, what's the situation?"
"Li Qin called. The people from the police station are here. They're afraid of alerting the enemy and don't dare to approach Yangma Village. We've been there before."
Zhao Ming turned the car around and met up with the people from the police station a few minutes later.
It was Zhan Shou Cheng, the superintendent of the police station. When he saw Han Bin, he went forward and shook his hand enthusiastically. "Captain Han, welcome to our work."
Although Zhan Shoucheng was also a director, there was a huge difference between the director of a small town like him and the director of a main city like Han Weidong. Their ranks were also different, so their attitudes towards Han Bin were also different.
"You flatter me, Superintendent Zhan. We came here with a request."
"You're treating me like an outsider. We're a family. There's no need to ask for anything. Just tell me what you want."
"We are investigating a gold shop robbery. According to our informant, Ma Shengkai, a villager from Yangma Village, is very suspicious. We want to know more about him."
Actually, the municipal bureau had communicated with the police station before. However, it was not Han Bin who had called, nor was it Superintendent Zhan who had answered the phone.
Superintendent Zhan had already investigated Ma Shengkai's situation, so he went straight to the point. "Ma Shengkai has a record at the police station. He has a criminal record of theft, but he hasn't done it again since he was released ten years ago.
However, seven years ago, he went out to work and was tricked into a black coal mine. He worked there for six years and was only rescued by the local police last year. You didn't see it. When his family was first brought back, they were all skinny. I don't know if they've recovered yet. "
Han Bin did not know whether to laugh or cry. "There's such a thing?"
"Many people in Yangma Village know about it. You can find out if you ask around."
"We were afraid of alerting the enemy, so we didn't dare to visit Yangma Village."
"That's true." Superintendent Zhan nodded and continued, "I'm quite familiar with the village chief. Why don't I get him to investigate the situation?"
That was a good idea. The village chief was a local, so he wouldn't stand out too much.
However, this was a serious matter, so Han Bin did not make a decision immediately. He only treated it as a backup plan.
After Han Bin understood the situation, he sent Superintendent Zhan away.
Then, he gathered his team members to discuss the arrest plan.
"We understand the situation. What do you think?"
Zhu Jiaxu smiled. "No wonder Ma Shengkai disappeared for so many years. He was captured and sent to the black coal mine. He's a joker."
Zhao Ming smacked his lips. "I thought he was very capable. Did we overestimate him?"
Wang Xiao said, "Previously, the technical department located Ma Shengkai's house. We thought he was just trying to mislead us, but now it seems that this old man is afraid of the black coal mine and doesn't dare to run around. Maybe he really is hiding at home."
"Haha …" Everyone roared with laughter.
Han Bin was the person in charge of the arrest. If anything happened, he would have to take full responsibility. It was not that optimistic. "It's not enough to just have a possibility. We have to have absolute confidence to arrest me. Otherwise, acting rashly will alert the enemy."
Wang Xiao asked, "Captain Han, what do you think we should do?"
Han Bin pondered for a moment. "Follow what Zhao Ming said. Find out Ma Shengkai's immediate family and monitor everyone's phone calls to see if anyone contacted Ma Shengkai. Then, we'll locate his phone."
"Captain Han, what if no one contacts Ma Shengkai? We can't keep waiting. "
"Monitor for two days. If there's no movement, we'll think of other ways."
Wang Xiao said, "Should we send someone to watch Ma Shengkai's family?"
"Definitely. Send a few veterans. Be careful and don't get exposed."
"Yes."
…
However, the plan could not keep up with the changes. The surveillance only lasted for a day before it ended.
The village was only so big. The people who came and went were all familiar people. Unfamiliar cars and the appearance of strangers would be very eye-catching. Before Ma Shengkai's family discovered anything, Wang Xiao made a prompt decision to leave the village.
Han Bin was not very satisfied with the news. However, Wang Xiao's worries were not unfounded. He could only think of other ways.
In the end, Han Bin found Ding Xifeng and proposed a bold decision.
…
The next morning, Yangma Village.
A taxi stopped at the entrance of Yangma Village. A middle-aged man got out of the car and walked into the village alone.
The man was tall and thin. He looked a little like Song Jiapeng. He was the suspect who had just turned himself in, Song Yingfa.
Song Yingfa took a deep breath. He cherished this opportunity. Although it was dangerous, as long as he could complete the mission, he would be able to reduce his sentence. He might even be able to reunite with his family in his lifetime.
Seven years ago, Song Yingfa had been to Yangma Village, but he could no longer remember the location of Ma Shengkai's house. Han Bin did not give him a detailed address, so he could only ask the villagers.
Fortunately, everyone in the village knew each other, so it was not difficult to find out.
When he walked near Ma Shengkai's house, Song Yingfa felt a little familiar. He walked straight to Ma Shengkai's door and took a deep breath. It would be a lie to say that he was not nervous. He knew very well that Ma Shengkai hated him and was cruel to his new accomplice.
Knock, knock …
"Who is it?"
"I'm looking for Ma Shengkai."
There was a moment of silence. "Who are you?"
"I'm Ma Shengkai's friend. Open the door first."
After a while, the door opened a crack. A man poked his head in and asked, "Who are you? Why are you looking for Ma Shengkai?"
Song Yingfa sized him up and squeezed out a smile. "You're Old Ma's son, right? My surname is Song, and I'm an old friend of your father's. We even had a drink together seven years ago."
The man's expression changed drastically. He quickly let Song Yingfa into the house. "You … Why are you here?"
"Xiao Ma, where's your dad? I'm here to look for him."
"My dad isn't here. Why are you looking for him? "
"Old Ma sent a letter saying that he wanted to see me. I've been out of town, but I rushed back when I heard the news."
The man looked at Song Yingfa with a scrutinizing gaze. "My dad really isn't here."
"Where did he go?"
"I don't know."
"When will he be back?"
"I can't say for sure. His temper comes and goes as he pleases. I can't control him. "
"Then what's his phone number? I'll contact him directly. "
The man lit a cigarette and took a puff. "My dad just got a new phone number. I can't remember it. How about this? Leave your phone number, and I'll ask him to contact you later."
"That's fine." Song Yingfa took out a pen and paper and wrote down his phone number. "Ask him to contact me as soon as possible. I can't stay here for too long."
The man nodded. He glanced at the number on the paper and put it away.
Song Yingfa returned to the village entrance. The taxi was still waiting. Song Yingfa got into the passenger seat and let out a long sigh of relief.
"You've worked hard. Drink some water." Han Bin sat in the back seat and handed him a bottle of mineral water.
"Captain Han, it's Ma Shengkai's son who wants to see me. He said that Ma Shengkai isn't at home, and he refused to give me Ma Shengkai's contact information. He just asked for my phone number." Song Yingfa took out his phone from his pocket and handed it to Han Bin.
"I heard it." Han Bin took the phone and checked it before handing it to Wang Xiao.
"How about this? I'll get someone to bring you back to the station first. It doesn't matter if we still need you in the future. You've done a great job."
Han Bin thought about it. No matter what method he used or who he sent to the Ma family to investigate, Ma Shengkai would be alerted during this sensitive period. There was only one exception — Song Yingfa.
With Ma Shengkai's current actions and state of mind, he would never expect Song Yingfa to turn himself in to the police.
"Thank you, Captain Han. Thank you for giving me a chance."
"You're welcome. You deserve it." Han Bin encouraged him. The taxi stopped at an inconspicuous location. Jiang Yang escorted Song Yingfa into another police car and sent him back to the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
Han Bin and Wang Xiao also changed cars and entered Yangma Village again. They stopped not far from Ma Shengkai's house.
Han Bin, Wang Xiao, and Zhao Ming sat in the car.
Zhu Jiaxu was in charge of the technology department, monitoring the phone numbers of Ma Shengkai's immediate family.
Zhao Ming rubbed his hands together. "Captain Han, do you think Ma Shengkai's son will tip us off?"
"Judging from his conversation with Song Yingfa, he should know something. I think he'll contact Ma Shengkai."
"Then how will he contact Ma Shengkai?"
Wang Xiao said, "Since Ma Shengkai's phone number was left with the Ma family, he should be using another phone number. It could be a friend or relative, or an anonymous SIM card. It's hard to guess. We'll deal with it by staying put. As long as we monitor Ma Shengkai's son's phone number, we should be able to find Ma Shengkai. "
Han Bin lit a cigarette. What Wang Xiao said was indeed the most likely scenario.
Suddenly, a pigeon flew out of Ma Shengkai's house. Zhao Ming looked at the sky through the glass. As he looked, he seemed to understand something.
"F * ck! I didn't know you could do that! "
