The landlady of the farmhouse was in her thirties. She was tall and had a voluptuous figure. She looked like a capable person.
Han Bin waved.
The landlady walked over with the menu. "What else do you want to order?"
"Landlady, what's your wireless password?"
"Two FFs, one, two, three, four, five, six."
Han Bin found the wireless network of the farmhouse and asked while entering the password, "Has the signal always been this bad?"
"Not really. Although our location is a bit remote, with the mountain behind us, there is a base station on the mountain, and the signal is not worse than in the city," the landlady said.
"Yeah, I'm a little puzzled. The signal used to be good here. What's wrong with it today?" Wang Qingsheng took another sip of wine.
"I'm not sure what's going on. Anyway, the signal was very bad this morning. Customers couldn't even call to make reservations. Business has been affected." The landlady sighed.
"Buzz …" As soon as Han Bin connected to the network, his WeChat kept ringing. Han Bin opened it and saw a lot of message notifications.
There was a personal message from Li Hui, "Brother Bin, where are you? Why can't I reach you?"
There were more messages in the WeChat group.
The first message was from Zeng Ping, "There's a case."
"Got it," Li Hui replied.
"Got it," Tian Li replied.
"Captain Zeng, what's the case?" Zhao Ming sent a questioning emoji.
"The base station theft is near the antique street."
"Aren't ordinary thefts handled by the police station?" Zhao Ming asked.
"At first, it was reported to the police station, but they couldn't catch the person. Similar situations occurred in other places. Now it's a series of thefts. The police station can't handle it at all, so they can only transfer it to our branch office." Zeng Ping sent a voice message.
"They even stole a base station. These criminals are too much," Tian Li snorted.
"At the antique street, a base station was just robbed. The scene has not been destroyed yet. Let's go and investigate the scene and understand the actual situation," Zeng Ping said.
"Captain Zeng, Brother Bin hasn't responded," Zhao Ming said.
"Li Hui, call Han Bin."
"I tried, but it didn't go through."
"Hurry over, I'll call him," Zeng Ping said.
…
After reading the contents of these conversations, Han Bin roughly understood the situation. No wonder his phone had no signal. It turned out that the nearby base station had been robbed.
Han Bin sent a message and replied, "Captain Zeng, I'm near the scene. There's no signal on my phone. I just connected to the internet."
"Send me your location. We'll pick you up."
"OK." Han Bin sent the location of Shanlihong Agricola.
After contacting them, Han Bin continued to eat. He didn't know when his next meal would be.
"Brother Bin, what happened?" Wang Qingsheng couldn't help but ask.
"The nearby base station was robbed. The case has been assigned to our team. Our team leader will come to pick me up later," Han Bin said.
"I was wondering why the signal was so bad. These people must be so poor that they even stole a base station. How many people will be affected?" Wang Qingsheng said unhappily.
To a certain extent, he and Han Bin were both victims.
"It's quite hateful. Maybe some girl who has a crush on me can't even get through to me." Han Bin shrugged his shoulders.
Wang Qingsheng: "…"
This guy is thick-skinned than me. It's a pity that he doesn't want to be in this business.
…
Forty minutes later, Zeng Ping and his team arrived at Shanlihong Agricola. They pulled Han Bin and drove straight into the mountain.
"Brother Bin, why are you here?" Li Hui was puzzled.
"My uncle wants to open an antique shop. He asked me to help him check it out." Han Bin took out a few bottles of mineral water and distributed them to the people in the car.
"I hope I didn't delay your work," Zeng Ping said.
"No, we've already checked it in the morning. We'll continue the case in the afternoon. It's a seamless connection. We don't even have to go to the police station," Han Bin replied with a smile.
He asked, "Captain Zeng, how many base stations have been robbed?"
"It's the seventh case, including this one," Zeng Ping took out a document and handed it to Han Bin. "This is the file handed over by the police station. Take a look."
There were two files. One was from the Golden Beach Police Station, and the other was from the Tong 'an Road Police Station. For such cross-regional theft cases, if the police station couldn't catch the suspect, it would be reported to the branch office.
The first theft took place on September 3rd in the Golden Beach Police Station's jurisdiction.
The second and third theft took place on September 4th in the Tong 'an Road Police Station's jurisdiction. The suspect consecutively robbed two base stations.
The fourth theft took place on September 5th in the Golden Beach Police Station's jurisdiction.
The fifth theft took place on September 6th and the sixth theft took place on September 7th in the Tong 'an Road Police Station's jurisdiction.
Today was September 8th. The local police station received a report that a base station had been robbed.
Zhao Ming also came over and looked at the file. He asked subconsciously, "With so many thefts, can't we find any clues from the surveillance cameras?"
"Base stations are usually built in remote places, especially the locations chosen by the suspect. They're basically in the mountains. There aren't many people in these places, let alone surveillance cameras," Zeng Ping explained.
"The suspect stole the base station. Is there anything valuable in it?" Tian Li didn't have a clear idea of what a base station was.
"There are wires, cables, and batteries in the base station. The most valuable one is the battery pack, which is worth tens of thousands of yuan." Han Bin took out a piece of chewing gum and threw it into his mouth.
"And this is just the price of the battery. The loss caused to the telecommunications company and the people is immeasurable."
"That's true. Not to mention other things, isn't our team also affected? We almost couldn't get in touch with Brother Bin, "said Zhao Ming.
"When I received this case, a leader called me and told me to solve the case as soon as possible. I can't let this series of thefts affect the development of Qindao City and the lives of the people." Zeng Ping said solemnly.
Han Bin finished reading the file and put it aside. Based on the current clues, the suspect was likely to continue committing crimes.
"Everyone has their own specialties. The police are good at maintaining law and order, but solving cases is left to us criminal police." Li Hui smiled.
Tian Li couldn't help but nod. She agreed with what he said.
From afar, they could see the tall iron tower of the base station. After driving for a few more minutes, the car stopped near the base station and the group got out of the car.
The iron tower of the base station was surrounded by a yard, and there was a computer room next to it. When the group walked near the yard, a man wearing a blue vest and a yellow safety helmet walked over.
"You must be comrades from the Public Security Bureau," the man wearing the safety helmet asked.
Although Han Bin and the others were wearing casual clothes, they came in a police car.
Zeng Ping showed his police badge, "What's your name?"
"I'm an employee of the telecommunications company, Li Weili."
"Are you responsible for the maintenance of this base station?" Zeng Ping asked.
"Yes, I'm responsible for the regular maintenance," Li Weili said.
"When did you find it stolen?" Han Bin asked.
"In the morning, a resident contacted our company and said that the signal nearby wasn't good, so the company sent me to check it out. I arrived here around nine in the morning." Li Weili's shoulder shook as he spoke.
Han Bin frowned slightly. This meant that he wasn't confident in what he said and was lying.
