Eight in the evening.
South Horse Village, south of the village.
There was a persimmon tree planted in front of a family's door. The family had moved to the city and apparently rented out their house.
However, it hadn't been inhabited for a very long time, but today, the lights were turned on for the first time.
In a farmer's yard, a man in his forties was sitting at a table. There were a few side dishes on the table. There were peanuts, canned fish, ham, and a bag of pig's ears. They were all food that could be stored for a long time. There were a few bottles of beer under the table.
"F * * k, why are these x-cops so sensitive? They actually snatched my goods. F * * k, the hostage is gone. F * * k." The man chewed on the pig's ears as he gulped down more than half a cup of beer.
This man was the main culprit of the case, Tomcat.
At that moment, his emotions were very unstable.
He had always prided himself on being resourceful and bold, but he had suffered greatly this time.
The goods were very important. If he couldn't deliver them in time, he would be in danger.
The police were also arresting him. It was a case of misfortune.
Tomcat knew that he shouldn't drink. Alcohol made people slow down, but he was in a terrible mood. He needed to find something to numb himself.
"Why isn't that hussy Lili back yet? I've been holding back my anger. It's time to use her. I'll teach her a lesson tonight."
Tomcat gulped down another mouthful of beer. He couldn't help but think about that night's program.
He still had such thoughts. Firstly, he had been drinking, and secondly, it was very safe here.
He was confident that the police wouldn't be able to find him.
There were so many people at the train station, and most of them were wearing masks. If he changed his attire, even acquaintances wouldn't be able to recognize him, much less the x-cops.
"Haha, I guess those fools are still watching the surveillance. They aren't as cool as I am now. I'll piss them off." Tomcat gulped down another cup of beer. "Nice."
"Wu Wu …"
There was the sound of a car outside.
Tomcat suddenly stood up and listened carefully.
Perhaps it was because of the alcohol, but his ears weren't working well.
Tomcat took out a pistol from his bag and ran to the door. He peeked through the gap and indeed, a car drove over. It was a red Honda with its headlights still on.
A beautiful woman in her thirties alighted. Upon seeing her, Tomcat relaxed.
Little Hoof came back.
Yu Lili walked to the door and knocked. "Hubby, I'm back."
"Baby, are you being followed?"
"What's there to follow? I didn't even see a single hair."
"That's good." Tomcat put away the pistol and opened the door.
The moment he opened the door, a strong force slammed it open. A few men rushed out from both sides of the door. They were like hungry wolves pouncing on their prey, and they pinned Old Cat down.
"Police, don't move!"
"Ah!" When Old Cat came back to his senses, he was powerless to resist. He was pinned to the ground and shouted, "Woman, you dare to betray me? I'll shoot you!"
"Old Cat, you've already been arrested by the police. How dare you be so arrogant? You can't destroy anyone now."
"How did you find me? Did this woman call the police? I don't accept this!"
"Tomcat, I didn't call the police. I was captured by them. They have been watching us for a long time. You can't escape at all. I didn't betray you, "the woman shouted.
"I don't believe it. There are so many people at the train station. How could they track me? It's impossible!"
"Captain Han, this guy has a gun." Zhao Ming handed it to Han Bin like he was presenting a treasure.
Han Bin put on his gloves and weighed the gun. "Wow, good stuff. It's better than mine."
"Tomcat, this is the first time we've met, but I've heard of you long ago. It's an honor to meet you."
"How did you catch me?" Tomcat was still angry.
"We checked the train station's surveillance cameras."
"That's impossible. I changed my attire and wore a hat and a mask. Most of the people at the train station wore masks too. How did you know which one was me?"
"You want to know?"
"I just want to die knowing the truth."
"Don't keep saying death. You might not die."
"Don't try to trick me. I know what I've done. I can't escape the death penalty."
"You're a good man. You don't even need to interrogate me."
"Ha, since I've been caught by you, you can't let me go. Let's save ourselves some trouble."
Han Bin nodded. "Well said."
"Then let me ask you. Who are these goods for?"
"Haha, if you want to know, check it yourself. Aren't you guys pretty good? Since you can catch me, you can definitely find the buyer of these goods."
"Tomcat, you've committed a serious crime. You know that, and so do we. As long as you help the police, I can help you reduce your sentence."
"Can you guarantee that I won't die?"
Han Bin shook his head. "I can't."
"Humph." Tomcat snorted, but he didn't resist much. He knew that his crime was serious. If Han Bin agreed immediately, it was most likely a lie.
Wang Xiao said, "Tomcat, you're a man of character. You should understand your situation. Cooperating with the police is the only way out. We don't want to make things difficult for you, but you should know that going against the police won't do you any good."
"Then what's in it for me to help you?"
"First, we can help you reduce your sentence. As for how the sentence will be, that's up to the court. Second, as long as it doesn't violate our principles, we'll provide you with some convenience so that you can live a more comfortable life. "
Tomcat was silent for a moment. "Then tell me first, how did you find me?"
He was still unconvinced. According to his speculation, it was impossible for the police to find him.
Han Bin said, "Tell me the buyer of these goods and I'll tell you."
Tomcat said, "The buyer of these goods isn't an ordinary person. You can catch me, but you might not dare to catch them."
Zhao Ming snorted, "Why wouldn't I dare? There are people on the ground that we, the police, can't handle. "
"They're not from Qin Island, and with your small guns, you really can't handle them."
Han Bin said, "The biggest difference between us and you is that we have the country behind us. Even if we can't handle them, we can still ask for help."
"Brother, what's your position? You look so young, so your rank shouldn't be high."
"I'm the squadron leader of Qin Island's Criminal Investigation Brigade."
"I want to talk to your chief."
"Why?"
"Because I'm the only one who knows the identity of those buyers. They're very dangerous. Even if they can't buy guns from me, they'll try to buy them from other channels. I don't need to say more about the consequences."
"I can pass on your request, but before that, follow us back to the bureau."
Han Bin said and began to assign tasks.
Zhu Jiaxu stayed at the scene while Han Bin escorted the suspect back to the bureau.
In the car, Han Bin reported Tomcat's request to Ding Xifeng.
…
Ten o 'clock at night.
City Public Security Bureau, Third Interrogation Room.
Tomcat was cuffed to a chair while Han Bin leaned against the interrogation table. Wang Xiao and Zhao Ming were also being interrogated with him.
Han Bin routinely asked, "Name, gender, age, place of origin …"
"My name is Song Pinghui. It's been a long time since someone called me this name. I've almost forgotten it. I'm 42 years old this year, from Quan City … "
"Song Pinghui, what's your relationship with Chen Qifeng?"
"We're partners. I give him money, and he helps me smuggle guns."
"When did the two of you start working together?"
"July 2019. Back then, the kid's company's cash flow broke. To save the company, he was willing to earn any amount of money. Now that the kid has made a name for himself, he turned his back on me and refused to help me smuggle. If not for his betrayal, I wouldn't have been caught by you. "
"You captured his daughter to coerce him into continuing to smuggle guns for you."
"Yes, the buyer of this batch of goods kept pressing me. I couldn't find any other shipping channel, so I could only find him again."
"Who's the buyer?"
"Get your chief here. I'll tell him."
"I've already helped you pass the message. Our chief will come when he wants to. Just answer my questions honestly."
Tomcat nodded, giving a knowing look. "Don't tell me your chief is eavesdropping by the side?"
"Beside the interrogation room is an observation room. He's not eavesdropping, but listening openly."
"It's the same to me."
"Why did you kidnap that boy?"
"It was an accident. It was done by that idiot, Sun Youguo. He wasn't careful at all. If the boy's family hadn't called the police, this matter wouldn't have developed to this stage. Speaking of which, how did you catch that idiot? That's something I never thought of. If Sun Youguo hadn't been caught, we wouldn't have been wiped out. "
Han Bin said, "It's a long story."
Song Pinghui revealed a bitter smile. "What I'm lacking the least now is time."
"Last winter, I went to Quan City to attend a friend's wedding. At the wedding, I saw Sun Youguo. Out of professional instinct, I felt that there was something wrong with this person, so I sent his photo to my colleague at the provincial public security department.
After the kidnapping, my colleague happened to be involved in the investigation. When he checked the surveillance cameras near the school, he recognized Sun Youguo. After that, he was targeted. "
"There's still something I don't understand. Why was the kidnapping case handled by the provincial department? If it wasn't for the intervention of the people from the provincial department, we wouldn't have been caught so quickly. "
Although Han Bin knew some of the reasons, he couldn't say much about it. "With the crimes you committed, it's hard not to be noticed by the provincial department."
"Hehe." Old Cat chuckled, feeling rather pleased with himself.
"What's your relationship with Sun Youguo, Cheng Weikui, and Biaozi?"
"They're all my men. Kidnapping and smuggling are all part of it. These three people are also bad. If I were to say, it would not be too much to shoot them. "After Song Pinghui said that, he touched his nose and said," Can you give me a cigarette? "
Han Bin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It sounded a little strange coming from his mouth. "Give him a cigarette."
Zhao Ming lit a cigarette and passed it to Song Pinghui.
Song Pinghui took a few puffs. "Comfortable. Captain Han, can you give me a pack of cigarettes every day?"
"As long as you tell me the buyer of those guns, I can help you apply."
"Apply? Then I might as well talk to someone who can make the decision directly. " Speaking of this, Song Pinghui seemed to remember something. "Oh, you still haven't told me. There are so many people at the train station. How did you catch me?"
"Although you deliberately disguised yourself, your body shape, gender, walking posture, and other characteristics have not changed. We used these methods to determine your identity."
"Damn, the police in the past weren't so good."
Han Bin thought to himself. That's because you didn't meet me.
"Other than Sun Youguo and the other two, do you have any other men?"
"Do I have the final say?"
"Of course."
"I have another man called Dregs. He's in Thailand contacting the seller. That idiot is waiting for me to pay. If he doesn't get the payment in two days, he'll probably die a horrible death. "
"Who's the seller?"
"A local force in Thailand. Their boss is called Gama Long."
Han Bin remembered this name. "What's the real name of that Dregs you mentioned?"
"Li Jiqiang."
"How can I contact him?"
"Didn't I say that this kid can't live? Why are you still wasting your energy? The Thais will help you solve it. It'll save the police. How nice. "
"We don't need you to teach us how to solve the case. Just answer our questions."
"We can't contact him directly now. He's been detained by the seller. I can only contact Gama Long first to find Li Jiqiang."
"How do you contact Gama Long?"
"Gama Long can't speak Chinese. I have to contact his translator. He's a Thai Chinese. His name is Luma. His phone number is 1562324 XXXX. "
"How long have you been working together?"
"It's been more than three years."
"What about the buyer? How long have you been working with the buyer?"
Song Pinghui smiled. "Captain Han, don't try to get information from me. The seller is far away in Thailand. Those people won't come to China, so it won't affect us much. But my buyers are different. Whether I can live or not depends on them.
If your bureau chief doesn't come, I won't say anything. "
That was exactly what Han Bin was worried about. The person who dared to buy so many guns must be a ruthless character. And if he needed so many weapons, he might be planning something big. If he could not catch this group of people in time, there would be a lot of trouble.
This Song Pinghui is also a f * cking bastard. He actually thinks that my position is too low. This is the first time Han Bin encountered such a situation.
"Creak …" At this moment, the door to the interrogation room opened. Three men walked in.
Han Bin quickly stood up. "Bureau Chief Feng, Detachment D, Captain Huang."
They were Feng Baoguo, Ding Xifeng, and Huang Kuangshi.
Feng Baoguo looked at Song Pinghui who was in the interrogation chair. "You're Old Cat."
"Yo, you look like a leader. May I ask, what's your position?"
Feng Baoguo smiled. "Han Bin, introduce us."
Han Bin pointed at Feng Baoguo. "This is Bureau Chief Feng of Qindao City's Public Security Bureau. This is Detachment D of Qindao City's Criminal Investigation Division. This is Captain Huang of the Provincial Public Security's Serious Crimes Division."
Song Pinghui smacked his lips. "Tsk tsk, this guy has changed."
Feng Baoguo raised his chin. "Old Cat, we're here. Tell us, who are those buyers?"
