Ten minutes later, Han Bin, Zeng Ping, and Zheng Kaixuan met up.
Han Bin walked over and said, "Captain Zheng, I'm sorry I couldn't complete the tracking mission. I've disappointed you."
Zheng Kaixuan reached out and patted Han Bin's shoulder, encouraging him. "If I were you, I would do the same."
Han Bin smiled. "Thank you, Captain Zheng."
"As long as the people at the casino aren't alerted, we still have a chance," Zheng Kaixuan said and walked to the side to communicate with the others.
Not long after, Zheng Kaixuan dismissed the officers from Nanqiao Town Police Station and Team One, leaving only Team Two.
Zheng Kaixuan took out his Hardeman and distributed it to everyone, then smiled at Tian Li. "Little Tian, it's not against the rules to smoke here, right?"
Tian Li smiled bitterly. "Captain Zheng, you're such a big boss, you shouldn't hold a grudge."
"Haha …"
Zheng Kaixuan smiled, lit his cigarette, and took a deep drag, looking intoxicated. "Everyone else has left, and we're the only ones left. Let's discuss what we should do next."
"Captain Zheng, do we have any backup plans?" Zhao Ming asked curiously.
"Wang Deli is still wearing a pinhole camera and a recording device. If everything goes well, he should be able to record the situation at the casino."
"Doesn't that mean that even if we can't find the location of the casino, the video and recording can still be used as evidence?" Zhao Ming asked subconsciously.
"Of course." Zheng Kaixuan nodded.
If they could find the location of the casino, it would naturally be the best evidence. However, if they couldn't find the location of the casino, they could still use the video and the testimony of the witness to convict Zhang Hailong and the other casino owners.
"In other words, it doesn't matter if we follow them or not?" Zhao Ming was a newcomer, so he didn't understand some of the details.
"It's still necessary to follow them. First, to ensure the safety of the informant. If anything happens, we can rush over to rescue them immediately." Han Bin flicked the cigarette ash and explained.
"Second, if we can catch the informant and the goods during the gambling session, the evidence will be more sufficient and easier to conclude the case."
"Sharpening the knife won't delay the work of cutting firewood. If we can't sharpen the knife in the early stages, we'll have to spend a lot of time and effort to close the case," Zeng Ping said.
Tian Li found a vantage point and said, "If we fail to follow them now, what if the informant is discovered?"
"The reason we stopped following them in time was to prevent the people in the casino from being alerted. This is equivalent to protecting the informant." Zheng Kaixuan was far more experienced in this aspect than the people present.
"Captain Zheng, what's the next task?" Zeng Ping asked.
"There are two cases to investigate. Other than the casino, there's also the robbery. If the gamblers were really involved in the robbery, then their next target is likely to be the person who won the gamble," Zheng Kaixuan analyzed.
"Captain Zheng, you want to wait at the place where the bus came back?" Han Bin guessed.
"Not bad." Zheng Kaixuan replied, revealing a look of admiration as he continued to speak.
"According to Wang Deli, the gambling session will end at five o 'clock. The bus will leave the mountain at five-thirty and return to the city at six o' clock. It will stop near Blue Star Mecailong on Jianbei Road."
Han Bin revealed a bitter smile. He had guessed correctly. Once the gambling session ended and everyone separated, the person who won the gamble was likely to be robbed.
"Captain Zheng, please assign us the tasks." Zhao Ming was a newborn calf that was not afraid of tigers and was full of energy.
Zheng Kaixuan nodded. He was satisfied with his attitude. "Everyone, please work hard tonight. Han Bin and Li Hui will keep watch for the first half of the night. Tian Li and Zhao Ming will keep watch for the second half of the night."
"Let me add one more thing. Although according to past experience, the bus will probably return around six o 'clock, no one can say for sure if it will change the time." Zeng Ping was afraid that everyone would slack off, so he gave them a warning.
"According to the surveillance, the robbers are working together. If one of them is from the gambling session, the other person might come to Blue Star Mecailong in advance to set up an ambush. You have to keep an eye on your surroundings to see if there are any suspicious people."
"Yes, sir," Han Bin and the other three replied.
…
Half an hour later, the group returned to the city. Both buses were parked near Blue Star Mecailong.
Han Bin and Li Hui were in the same car. They would keep watch for the first half of the night, from eleven o 'clock to two o' clock in the morning.
Tian Li and Zhao Ming were in the same car. They would keep watch for the second half of the night, from two o 'clock to five o' clock in the morning.
Zeng Ping and Zheng Kaixuan took a taxi and left.
Han Bin got out of the car and went to a nearby convenience store to buy some water and food. If they stayed in the car for the whole night, they would not be able to bear it if they did not prepare some food.
Back in the car, Han Bin and Li Hui drank some water and ate something.
"Brother Bin, how are we going to keep watch tonight?" Li Hui asked.
"Tell me."
Li Hui glanced at his phone and said, "You keep watch first. The shift will be over at 12: 30."
The person who kept watch first could sleep all night. Han Bin naturally had no objection.
"Then you sleep."
"No hurry." Li Hui chuckled, put on his headphones, and plugged in his phone. "I'll look at my phone first. I'll sleep later."
"You don't sleep when you have the chance. Instead, you look at your phone. Aren't you tired?" Han Bin asked.
Li Hui had already put on his headphones. It seemed that he did not hear Han Bin's words. He shook his head beautifully.
Han Bin glanced at the phone. It was a woman in her early twenties. She was quite beautiful and looked like she was doing a live broadcast.
Han Bin shook his head and did not say anything more.
Perhaps the charm of a beautiful woman was greater than sleeping.
Han Bin was not affected by Li Hui. He looked around from time to time to see if there were any abnormalities. At the same time, he had been paying attention to the person riding the motorcycle.
If the robbers committed the crime again, it was likely that they would take the same vehicle.
At around 12 o 'clock, Li Hui turned off his phone and took a half-hour nap.
At 12: 30, he took over Han Bin's night watch.
Han Bin put down the car chair. He was tired after a day and soon fell asleep.
…
5 o 'clock in the morning.
"Dong dong." There was a sound of knocking on the glass.
Han Bin suddenly opened his eyes and saw a man standing outside. He looked carefully and saw that it was Zeng Ping.
Han Bin opened the door and got off the car. He stretched and said, "Captain Zeng, when did you arrive?"
"I just arrived. Have some breakfast." Zeng Ping handed over a bag with a pancake and a bag of milk.
Han Bin was a little hungry. He took a bite of the pancake and said, "Two eggs?"
"This egg is small. One is not enough for you." Zeng Ping smiled and handed the other bag to Li Hui who had just woken up.
"Go back to the car and eat. Don't let the robbers find anything unusual."
After Han Bin and the others had breakfast, they continued to keep watch in the car. It was still too early and there was no one around. If they kept watch outside, it would be too conspicuous.
As time passed, Han Bin and the others did not find anything unusual.
"Buzz …"
At around 5: 50, Zeng Ping's phone rang. He quickly opened it and said, "It's a message from Wang Deli."
"What did he say?"
Zeng Ping frowned and hesitated for a moment. He said, "He sent a person's photo with two words below, Sword God."
Li Hui wondered, "What does that mean?"
