City Criminal Investigation Unit, Captain's Office.
"Knock knock." Han Bin knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Han Bin walked in with a document.
Ding Xifeng stood up from his desk and pointed to the sofa. "Sit down. I'm done."
"Yes."
"This is the detailed interrogation record."
"Okay." Ding Xifeng sat on the sofa and began to look through the interrogation record.
Han Bin was not in a hurry. He lit a cigarette and started smoking.
After a while, Ding Xifeng finished reading the document and said, "Do you think this transcript is credible? Is it possible that Ma Xiaolin lied about this?"
"I don't think it's possible."
Ding Xifeng said, "The cyanide is the key evidence to convict him. Ma Xiaolin destroyed the remaining cyanide and couldn't compare it with the poison in the deceased's body. It's a weak link after all. If we can't find the source and sample of the cyanide, based on my understanding of the prosecutor's office, it may be returned for insufficient evidence.
Don't look for trouble. Don't think that you can relax just because you caught the suspect. In our line of work, it's taboo to start strong but end weak. "
"Don't worry, I will investigate as soon as possible."
"Tell me, how do you want to investigate?"
Han Bin organized his thoughts. "Ma Xiaolin didn't meet the seller of the cyanide, but they had indirect contact.
There can be roughly two ways. One is through WeChat, but the IP address is in Myanmar. It's difficult to find the specific location.
The second is through contact in the mall. Although they didn't meet directly, Ma Xiaolin must have a contact person to send money and pick up the goods. As long as we catch this contact person, we can follow the clues and catch the suspect. "
Ding Xifeng lit a cigarette. "You want to lure the snake out of its hole."
"Yes."
"The plan is reasonable, but the plan must be thorough and the situation must be considered clearly to avoid alerting the enemy."
"I already have a general plan in my mind and was about to report it to you …"
"Knock knock …" There was another knock on the door.
"Come in."
The door opened, and Wang Xiao and Zhu Jiaxu walked in.
"Is it over with Han Zikang?"
Wang Xiao replied, "Yes, I made a detailed statement for him, recording the process of him buying the drug and the way he contacted the seller."
"It just so happens that I'm talking to your Captain Han about the channels through which Ma Xiaolin bought sodium cyanide. Compare the two channels and see if there are any similarities."
"Yes." Wang Xiao nodded and handed a document to Ding Xifeng. "Captain, this is Han Shaokang's interrogation record."
"I've seen the interrogation records from the police station. I know the general situation. Just focus on the main points."
"Ahem …" Wang Xiao cleared his throat, "The process of Han Shaokang buying the knockout powder is not much different from ordinary online shopping platforms. He just searched for the knockout powder on the internet, and a website popped up. He bought it through the website and paid with WeChat. After that, the seller mailed the knockout powder through express delivery.
I asked the technical department to investigate this website. Based on the domain name, the server of the pirate website is overseas, most likely in Southeast Asia.
The owner of the bank account tied to the website is called Li Guoshan, who is from Shuzhou. The police station also investigated this person. Li Guoshan is 61 years old this year, and he lives in Little Spring Village in Shuzhou. The location is relatively remote, and the transportation is not convenient. It takes an hour to walk the mountain road to the county town and an hour by car.
According to the local police station, Li Guoshan is not in good health. He has been farming in his hometown for the past few years, and the transportation and express delivery are not convenient there. It is unlikely that he would do such illegal things. "
Wang Xiao paused and continued, "Another key point to investigate is the express delivery. The police station also investigated the sender of the knockout powder. The sender's name is Li Guoshan, and his ID number is also Li Guoshan's. However, the delivery address is in Dian Zhou.
It is several provinces away from Shuzhou. I personally feel that it is unlikely that Li Guoshan would travel that far to deliver the goods. The payment is not enough to cover the cost of the round-trip ticket and accommodation. "
Zhu Jiaxu asked, "Do you think Li Guoshan is just a puppet used by the suspect to steal from the front desk?"
Wang Xiao said, "More or less. He may not even be a puppet. He can only be regarded as a shield."
Ding Xifeng pondered for a moment, then looked at Han Bin, who was next to him. "Captain Han, what do you think?"
Han Bin said, "Although based on the current situation, the two cases are not directly related, if we analyze it carefully, there is still a certain degree of coincidence and connection.
The WeChat login address of the seller that Ma Xiaolin bought the cyanide shows that it is in Myanmar. The server of the website where Han Shaokang bought the knockout powder is also in Southeast Asia. Although the exact location has not been confirmed, it is probably also in Myanmar.
Based on this analysis, the two cases are very likely to be related, and they may even be from the same source. "
Ding Xifeng asked, "Did the police station send anyone to Shuzhou to investigate Li Guoshan?"
"No. Although the police station thinks that Li Guoshan is very likely to be a shield, they did not dare to contact him rashly. They are afraid that they will alert the real suspect."
"What about Dian Zhou?"
"They contacted the local police station in Dian Zhou and asked for their assistance in investigating the express delivery station that the suspect sent the goods, but they have not received any specific results."
"It's not efficient." Ding Xifeng sighed, but it was understandable. The police station's level was not high enough, and it was not easy to apply for an investigation notice. It was also because of this factor that Ding Xifeng asked Second Squadron to continue to investigate the source of the sale.
"We can't delay any longer. We have to cut the Gordian knot. Everyone, please work hard. We have to go on a business trip. " Ding Xifeng glanced at everyone and continued, "Captain Zhu, you go to Shuzhou and personally find out about Li Guoshan's situation. If we don't pay attention to it ourselves and don't send anyone, the local police will naturally not pay attention to it.
When you arrive in Shuzhou, thoroughly understand Li Guoshan's situation and see if he has any connection with the suspect. Then, decide if the next step is to make a statement or directly arrest him. "
"Yes."
"Wang Xiao, bring some people to Dian Zhou. Since the goods were sent from Dian Zhou, it means that the source of the goods is very likely there. Find out if the suspect has a fixed express delivery point. Let's work together and see if we can lure the sender out."
"Okay."
"Han Bin, don't worry about Han Shaokang for now. First, catch the person who supplied Ma Xiaolin with the goods, find the sample of sodium cyanide, and close the case of Chen Zihe's poisoning.
Once this case is closed, the pressure on us will be reduced. "
"Got it."
…
After the meeting, Han Bin made arrangements for manpower.
Wang Xiao and Zhu Jiaxu were going on a business trip, so they definitely couldn't be a commander without an army. However, the funds were limited, so they couldn't send too many people.
After considering the overall situation, Wang Xiao, Jiang Yang, and Zu Dawei went to Dian Zhou.
Zhu Jiaxu took He Yingsheng to Shuzhou.
Han Bin led the other team members to investigate Ma Xiaolin's case.
After the arrangements, Wang Xiao and Zhu Jiaxu went to do the preparation work. Han Bin called the other team members for a meeting.
Han Bin glanced at everyone and said, "Everyone knows the situation. Except for the team members who are on a business trip, everyone else is responsible for investigating Ma Xiaolin's case. Although Ma Xiaolin has confessed, the channel through which she bought the sodium cyanide has not been found. If the sales channel is not destroyed, more people may be harmed.
After interrogation, Ma Xiaolin has told us the contact information of the supplier. I'm going to lure the snake out of its hole and catch the suspect who supplied Ma Xiaolin with the cyanide. If anyone has any ideas, feel free to speak up. "
Zhao Ming asked, "Captain Han, where are you going to make the arrest?"
"It depends on where the suspect wants to make the transaction." Han Bin responded and asked, "Before that, I need someone to pretend to be a customer and contact the suspect to recommend himself."
No one answered.
"Since everyone is so humble, I'll call out names." Han Bin glanced at everyone and his eyes fell on Li Qin. "Sister Li, how about you work hard?"
Han Bin chose Li Qin for three reasons. First, Li Qin was a woman, so it wouldn't be easy for the suspect to be vigilant. Second, based on Han Bin's experience, most people who chose to kill with poison were women. Third, Li Qin's age was more suitable.
Although Huang Qianqian and Feng Na were also women, they were younger and had less experience. Overall, Li Qin was more suitable.
Since Han Bin had called out her, Li Qin didn't decline. "Captain Han, what should I say after I add him on WeChat?"
"Just say that you want to buy a colorless and tasteless poison that can kill instantly. Also, make an appointment to meet him as soon as possible."
"Got it." Li Qin nodded, took a deep breath and added the suspect's WeChat ID.
The suspect's WeChat ID was Old K.
After adding him on WeChat, the atmosphere in the office became tense as everyone waited for the suspect's reply.
One minute, two minutes …
Ten minutes passed.
Han Bin glanced at his watch. There was no point in waiting. Who knew when the suspect would reply?
Just as Han Bin was about to say something, Li Qin's phone rang.
"Captain Han, I've added Old K."
"Talk to him."
Li Qin typed, "Are you there?"
Old K replied, "Yes, who are you?"
"I saw your advertisement. I want to buy medicine."
"What kind of medicine do you want?"
"I want a colorless and tasteless poison that can kill people. The kind that can't be saved even if you send it to the hospital."
"Where are you from?"
"Qin Island."
"Sure, but my medicine is more expensive. You have to pay first."
"How much?"
"Three thousand."
"What medicine is so expensive?"
"If you think it's expensive, go buy rat poison. Only an idiot would drink it. You get what you pay for. I'm selling sodium cyanide. It's almost tasteless. If you eat it, even a deity can't save you. "
"I really don't have that much money. Make it cheaper."
"I don't bargain."
"How about two thousand?"
"The lowest is two thousand five hundred. I won't sell anything less."
Li Qin paused for a moment before continuing to type, "Alright, where can I get the goods?"
"Pay first. Once you pay, I'll naturally give you the goods."
"I've already given you the money. What if you don't give me the goods? I can't reason with you. Give me the goods first, then I'll pay. "
"I'm telling you, we do business all over the world. We don't cheat anyone. We don't need you."
"Then … how do I give you the money?"
"Send the money to Guangnan Shopping Mall."
"When?"
"You can go there now. Send the money to the fifth floor theater, Hall 1. When I receive the money, I'll give you the goods tomorrow."
Han Bin reminded, "Not now. It's too rushed. I can't set up the surveillance in time. I'll give you the money tomorrow."
Li Qin sent a message, "Not today. I still have to work. How about tomorrow morning?"
"Sure."
"Tell me the exact location and time. I'll bring the money over."
"Tomorrow at ten in the morning, send the money to Guangnan Shopping Mall. Fifth floor theater, Hall 1, Row 7, Seat 4. If I remember correctly, it should be the Avatar. "
"I'll remember. Then when can I get the goods? "
"Wait for the news."
"How will I know which one is you? What if I give the wrong money?"
"You don't need to care about what I look like. Just put the money under the cushion of Hall 1, Row 7, Seat 4."
After that, the other party stopped contacting him.
Han Bin said, "From the looks of the current situation, the other party did not notice anything unusual. Let's go to Guangnan Cinema and set up surveillance. We must control the person who took the money in time."
Han Bin knew that the person who took the money was definitely not the mastermind behind the scenes. They had to be clean when they arrested him to prevent him from reporting back to the higher-ups.
Zhao Ming said, "Captain Han, the transaction is tomorrow. Isn't it a little too early for us to set up surveillance now?"
"It's not early. We have to familiarize ourselves with the environment in advance and install surveillance cameras in a hidden place to ensure that the suspect can be caught with the goods when he takes the money."
"Amazing. Captain Han is really thoughtful."
Zhang Shungu said, "Captain Han, should we greet the cinema?"
"Greeting them is a must. However, since the suspect chose Guangan Shopping Mall as the transaction location, it means that he is very familiar with the situation there. It's even possible that he is in Guangan Shopping Mall himself. Let's go to the cinema to investigate and not alarm anyone as much as possible."
Zhang Shungu said, "Then contact the higher-ups of the mall. The possibility of them participating in this kind of thing is relatively small and it's more convenient for us to act."
Li Qin said, "I'll contact the technical department and ask them to help install surveillance cameras."
Han Bin said, "Sure. Ask them to prepare the equipment in advance, but the installation will have to wait until after midnight."
"The rest of you, follow me to Guangnan Shopping Mall. Familiarize yourself with the mall's environment in advance to prevent any accidents during the arrest."
"Yes."
Under Han Bin's arrangements, the surveillance work was carried out in an orderly and tense manner.
…
The next morning, Han Bin and the others arrived at the Municipal Public Security Bureau early in the morning and once again confirmed the surveillance and arrest plan.
The mall opened at 9: 30 am and Han Bin and the others rushed into the mall and acted according to their previous deployment.
At 9: 45 am, Li Qin also arrived at the mall. She acted alone to prevent the suspect from seeing through her.
When she arrived, Li Qin immediately sent a WeChat message to the suspect. "I'm at the mall."
"Did you bring the money?"
"Yes, I'm about to go to the cinema. Where are you and when will you deliver the goods to me? "
"Didn't I say that when I get the money, I'll naturally give you the goods. Buy a Godzilla ticket now. It starts at 10: 10 am. "
"Ah, didn't you say that we're going to Hall One to watch Avatar at 10 am?" Li Qin frowned. Whether it was surveillance or deployment, the police were all centered around Hall One.
"That's a rerun. It's not good. Let's go watch Godzilla. It should be in Hall Three. Put the money under the seat cushion in Row Six."
