Huang Kuangshi assigned the surveillance task, and Han Bin was the person in charge.
Different from the previous investigations, Han Bin was only responsible for monitoring Sun Youguo this time.
As for the other clues and investigation directions of the kidnapping case, Han Bin wasn't sure.
Han Bin divided his men into two teams to monitor the place Sun Youguo had been to and who he had met. He couldn't be allowed to escape from the police's surveillance.
At seven o 'clock in the evening, Han Bin assigned the night surveillance task and went to Ding Xifeng's office to tell him the details of today's investigation.
Ding Xifeng knocked on the table, "The kidnapping took place in Spring City, and the ransom hasn't been paid yet. Why is Sun Youguo here?"
"The police haven't had any direct contact with Sun Youguo yet, but it's very likely that he's here because of the ransom. Could the location of the ransom be here?"
Ding Xifeng snorted, "If that's the case, the police will not let him get what he wants."
"Of course, as long as the suspect sets the location of the ransom transaction in the island, I will definitely arrest them."
Afraid of the Spring City police, but not the island police?
Damn it, is he looking down on the island police?
Ding Xifeng said, "This kidnapping case will be investigated by the provincial department. You don't have to worry about the situation in Spring City, you just need to help Captain Huang investigate the clues in the island. You must understand this Sun Youguo thoroughly. If the kidnappers really want to trade in the island, you must catch them all while ensuring the safety of the hostages. "
"Yes."
After the two chatted for a while, Han Bin left the captain's office.
…
Evening, 8: 18.
Lao Jiu Bar.
This barbecue bar was very famous in the area. It was divided into two floors, and the upper floor was a private room.
Under the guidance of a waiter, Han Bin went to the private room on the east side of the second floor. He could see the courtyard below when he opened the window.
Han Bin sat on the chair and flipped through the menu absent-mindedly. He was waiting for a friend.
The two of them weren't allowed to enter the private room if they didn't spend enough, but this restaurant was located on Guang 'an Road, so the boss was happy to provide some convenience for Han Bin.
Knock knock … A knock sounded on the door.
"Come in."
The door opened, and a man in his forties walked in. The man had a big smile on his face, and he was holding two plates in his hands. One was crayfish, and the other was a platter of peanuts and green beans.
"Young Master Han, welcome to our restaurant. These two dishes are our restaurant's specialties. Please try them."
Han Bin was confused by the way Mr. Han addressed him. "Mr. Chen, you can just call me by my name, or Xiao Han. Oh right, I haven't ordered yet, right?"
"You're giving me face by coming to my restaurant. These two dishes are for you. They're not worth much, just a token of my appreciation. In addition, all your purchases today will be 50% off. "
Han Bin waved his hand. "Boss Chen, I'm already very grateful that you're willing to let me have the private room. A 50% discount is too low. I'm here to spend, and you can't treat me at a loss. That's not right."
"Then 20% off. Friends and acquaintances get this discount. Please don't decline."
"Thank you."
"I should be the one thanking you. You're giving me face by taking care of my business."
"Boss Chen, leave the peanut and edamame platter. You can take the crayfish away. I don't really like to eat it."
"Alright, you eat first. I'll get someone to bring you a pot of good tea. If you need anything, just let me know."
Han Bin nodded and watched Boss Chen leave. He then began to peel the peanuts.
The peanuts were indeed very flavorful and were very suitable to be eaten with wine. It was a pity that Han Bin couldn't drink today.
Not long after, a waiter came in and placed a pot of tea on the table.
Han Bin poured a cup of tea and smelled it. "Not bad."
"Knock knock." Someone knocked on the door again.
A young man pushed the door open and walked in. The man was in his twenties. He was wearing a green t-shirt, a pair of black sunglasses with gold rims, and a pair of skinny jeans.
Han Bin took a glance and almost spat out the water in his mouth. F * ck, you're a man. Why do you like wearing skinny jeans so much?
"Brother Bin, we haven't contacted each other for so long. I thought you'd forgotten about me."
Han Bin couldn't help but look at his skinny jeans. "I actually wanted to forget about you."
"Hehe, that can't be. What's our relationship?" The man was called Chen Defu. His nickname was Chen San. He was Han Bin's informant.
Chen Defu grabbed the menu. "Brother Bin, are you treating today?"
"Of course not. Just order whatever you want."
"Hehe, you're making me feel embarrassed."
"Then, are you treating this time?"
Chen Defu shook his head and rejected righteously. "How can a little brother pay for a meal with a big brother?"
Chen Defu called the waiter over and pointed at the menu. "Thirty skewers, four lamb loins, ten tendons, a plate of enoki mushrooms, and a dozen beers."
"I don't need that many lamb loins. I'll just have one." Han Bin took a glance. A crude lamb loin cost 25 yuan. It was delicious, but it was also expensive.
It was enough to satisfy his cravings and could be eaten as a meal.
Chen Defu said, "Waiter, one more kidney. Five."
Han Bin was speechless.
After the waiter left, Chen Defu picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Han Bin. "Brother Bin, I heard that you're now the captain of the Criminal Investigation Unit."
"You're quite well-informed."
"It's not that I'm well-informed, but you're a famous person in Qin Island. Who doesn't know your name?"
Han Bin shook his head. 'Only your gang of scoundrels take me seriously. 99% of a thousand people on the street don't know me.'
"What about you? What are you busy with?"
"What else can I do? Same as usual. But I've recently taken a liking to billiards. I often hang out in the billiard hall."
"Dong dong." The door opened and a waiter walked in with a dozen beers and a plate of lamb skewers. He also provided a plate of cumin noodles and chili powder. If the taste was not up to standard, he could add more himself.
After the waiter left, Chen Defu picked up a bottle of beer and opened the cap. "Brother Bin, what mission do you have for me this time?"
Han Bin picked up a skewer of meat. There was fat and lean meat, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
It was addictive to eating skewers. He would miss it if he didn't eat it for a few days.
"I want you to help me find out about someone."
"Who?"
"His name is Sun Youguo. He has a criminal record of theft and kidnapping. He was released in October the year before last and often hangs out in Spring City and Qin Island."
"Sun Youguo." Chen Defu mumbled and asked, "What's his nickname?"
"I'm not sure."
"His crime must be quite serious for you to investigate it personally."
"He's suspected of kidnapping for ransom. The victims are two elementary school students."
"F * ck, he's f * cking inhumane. He wouldn't even let elementary school students go!" Chen Defu spat. "Don't worry, I'll investigate this kid for you."
Han Bin took out a document and threw it to him. "This is his detailed information. Burn it after you read it. Also, be careful. Even if you can't find anything about him, you can't let him know. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable. "
"Don't worry. When have I ever delayed your business?"
Although Chen Defu was young and looked sloppy, he was still quite reliable. Otherwise, Han Bin wouldn't keep looking for him.
Chen Defu picked up a glass of beer. "Brother Bin, I'll drink to you."
"I'll drink tea instead of wine. You know better than to touch alcohol during this time."
"Hehe, just based on this point, I won't do it no matter how powerful the police are."
Han Bin shook his head and laughed. Chen Defu said it as if any police station would want him.
Chen Defu licked his face and smiled. "Brother Bin, you're now the leader of the city's Public Security Bureau. As your informant, shouldn't I be promoted too?"
"If you have something to say, just say it."
"I'm a little tight recently. Is the informant fee …"
"Don't worry. When have I ever been short of you?"
"That's true. Brother Bin is the most powerful."
…
The next morning.
City's Public Security Bureau, City's Criminal Investigation Brigade Second Squadron Captain's office.
Han Bin yawned and opened the office door. In his hand was a plastic bag containing Han Bin's breakfast.
A scallion pancake, a tea egg, a chives box, and a bag of milk.
Han Bin sat at his desk and browsed the news on his phone while eating his breakfast.
Last night, he and Chen Defu chatted until ten o 'clock before returning home. When he got home, he and Wang Ting made out again. He slept late and woke up late.
Han Bin ate quickly. He finished his meal in less than ten minutes. After he put away the trash, there was a knock on the office door.
"Come in."
Bao Xing pushed the door open and walked in. "Captain Han."
"Sit." Han Bin pointed at the chair opposite him and saw that Bao Xing had dark circles under his eyes. "Didn't sleep well last night?"
"Yeah, I've been thinking about Qianqian's matter for a long time. I don't blame her. If there's anything to blame, blame it on us not being fated to be together."
Han Bin shrugged and didn't say anything.
"Captain Han, I won't be sitting. Captain Huang sent me to invite you to the conference room for a meeting."
"Let's go."
Han Bin didn't waste any time. He took a pen and notebook and followed Bao Xing out of the office. "Oh right, is there any progress on the investigation in Quan City?"
Bao Xing looked around and whispered, "The kidnappers are ready to make a deal."
"Yeah." Han Bin nodded. This news was very important. It would be abnormal if Huang Kuangshi didn't respond.
When they arrived at the conference room, not only was Huang Kuangshi there, but Feng Baoguo and Ding Xifeng were also there.
Han Bin greeted them and sat down quietly.
Not long after, the team members arrived one after another.
Seeing that almost everyone was here, Feng Baoguo and Huang Kuangshi whispered to each other, "Since everyone is here, let's start the meeting. Captain Huang, you're more familiar with the case, so you'll be in charge of this meeting. "
"Okay." Huang Kuangshi responded and glanced at everyone. "Not long ago, there was news from Quan City. The kidnappers gave the deadline and the location of the ransom transaction. The ransom is still four million, not one cent less. The transaction location is at Quan City Sports Square, and the time is three o 'clock this afternoon.
This means that the suspect has revealed his true intentions, and the case is about to usher in a new turning point. At this critical juncture, we can't wait any longer. The provincial department has decided to arrest the suspect, Sun Youguo. "
Regarding this decision, the people present weren't too surprised.
The suspect kidnapped the victim to extort ransom, so the usual ransom transaction in a kidnapping case was often the turning point of the case.
Once the suspect got the ransom, the hostages would lose their value. They would either release the hostages or kill the hostages.
Similarly, once the ransom transaction was completed, the hostages would either be released or killed, and Sun Youguo's existence would be meaningless.
This was because the most important point of a kidnapping case was to rescue the hostages, and that was where Sun Youguo's greatest value lay.
Hence, arresting Sun Youguo before the ransom transaction was to take advantage of the time difference and not give the suspect a chance to notice anything unusual. At the same time, the police could also obtain more clues and information before the ransom transaction.
Huang Kuangshi continued, "Regarding this decision, if anyone has any thoughts or additions, feel free to voice them out."
Han Bin asked, "What are the requirements for the time and location of the arrest?"
Huang Kuangshi said, "The arrest time can't be too early. Otherwise, if we can't pry open the suspect's mouth in time and the two parties don't contact each other in time, it's very likely that the suspect in Quan City will be alerted. It might even affect the ransom transaction.
At the same time, the arrest time can't be too late. We must leave time for interrogation. Only by prying open the suspect's mouth can we obtain more clues before the transaction. Our advantage will be greater, and the success rate of rescuing the hostages will be higher.
After considering it, I'm going to set the arrest time at noon.
As for the location of the arrest, it has to meet two conditions. One is a place with fewer people to avoid causing panic and not letting the news leak. The other condition is to find a place that's conducive to the arrest so that the suspect doesn't escape.
I'm done with my thoughts. Does anyone have anything to add? "
After a moment of silence, Feng Baoguo cleared his throat. "I agree with Captain Huang's plan. Everyone, please assist Captain Huang in arresting the suspect and try to rescue the hostages as soon as possible."
"Yes." Everyone responded in unison. Obviously, Bureau Chief Feng's words carried more weight.
…
Noon.
Huarun District, Building 3, 18th floor.
"Creak …" The door to unit 1802 opened and a man wearing a cap walked out.
The man was dressed very tightly. Other than the cap, he was wearing a mask, so his face couldn't be seen at all.
After the man opened the door, he looked around and listened for any movement. He took out a small note from his pocket and placed it next to the door frame. When the door closed, the note was stuck in the gap of the door.
The height of the note was below the man's knees, so it was inconspicuous.
The man in the cap was quite proud of this small action. He touched his nose out of habit, but touched his mask instead.
Then, the man walked to the side and waited for the elevator.
After a while, the elevator bell rang and the door opened. A young man and a woman stood in the elevator. They looked like a couple.
The man in the cap got into the elevator and leaned against a corner.
He had just gone down two floors when the elevator bell rang again. The door opened and there were two men waiting for the elevator outside.
The two men also got into the elevator. Although it wasn't crowded, the distance between the five passengers wasn't far.
The man in the cap felt inexplicably uneasy. He glanced at the four people around him, and his eyes suddenly widened. His body trembled as if he suddenly thought of something …
Are they here to arrest me?
It was too late to react now. The four of them had surrounded the man in the middle. They were in the elevator, so he had nowhere to hide or escape. Just like a roujiamo, he could only wait to be gnawed on …
