"I don't know what's going on in the entertainment industry. As for the specifics, you can go and record it yourself," Zheng Kaixuan said.
"Where's Mu Xinran?" Han Bin asked.
"The person who reported the case is her assistant, Li Xia. She didn't come to the police station herself," Zheng Kaixuan said.
"Tian Li, go and call her assistant over," Han Bin said.
"Yes," Tian Li responded and left the office.
"I have a lot of things to do these two days. Keep an eye on this case. After all, she's a public figure. Be flexible in handling cases," Zheng Kaixuan said.
"Understood," Han Bin nodded.
"You guys continue with your work. Call me if anything happens," Zheng Kaixuan said and left Team Two's office.
He was very confident in Han Bin's ability to handle cases.
He believed that even if he wasn't here, Han Bin would still be able to handle the case well.
…
Not long after, Tian Li returned to the office. Behind her was a woman in her thirties. She had short hair and was very sturdy.
"Team Han, this is Mu Xinran's assistant, Li Xia," Tian Li introduced.
Before Han Bin could speak, Li Hui pointed at the chair beside him, "Sit down, I'll record it for you."
Han Bin smiled. This guy was the most nosy. Once he heard that it was related to a celebrity, he couldn't sit still.
"Yes," Li Xia responded. She seemed a little nervous.
Li Hui opened the law enforcement recorder and routinely asked, "Name, age, gender, occupation …"
"Li Xia, I'm 29 this year, female, celebrity's assistant …"
"What's your relationship with Mu Xinran?"
"I'm Mu Xinran's assistant."
"Mu Xinran asked you to call the police?" Li Hui asked.
"Yes."
"Where's Mu Xinran?"
"At home."
"Why didn't she report it herself?"
"Xinran's identity is not very convenient. There will often be paparazzi secretly taking pictures. If the news of him coming to the police station gets out, it is very likely that the blackmailer will find out. I'm afraid it will affect the police investigation." Li Xia said.
Han Bin smiled. This Li Xia really knew how to talk.
"Tell me what happened."
"I'm not too sure about the specifics. I just know that someone called Xinran to extort money, and even sent a secretly filmed video. They told Xinran to prepare a ransom of 10 million, or else they would post Xinran's video online." Li Xia said.
"Ten million! He really dared to ask for it. "Li Hui smacked his lips.
"When did the kidnappers call?" Han Bin asked.
"Xinran said it was yesterday."
"You made a blackmail call yesterday. Why did you only come to the police today?" Li Hui asked.
"Celebrities are public figures. Xinran is very afraid that this matter will be exposed by the media. Originally, she wanted to spend money to buy peace, but the management company was unwilling to help pay for it. Xinran was unable to take out that much money in a short period of time, so she had no choice but to let me call the police." Li Xia said.
"What's the phone number of the blackmailer?" Han Bin asked.
Li Xia opened the phone and read, "134524621 XX"
"Yesterday, when did the blackmailer call?" Han Bin asked.
"This … I'm not very sure about the specific time."
"What about the blackmailer's accent? Is it a man or a woman? "
"I don't know." Li Xia shook her head.
"Where is the equipment installed?" Han Bin asked.
"It should be in the bedroom."
"Is there a listening device?"
"I don't know."
Han Bin frowned. There were many details of the case that Li Xia did not understand, and these situations were very important. He asked, "Where is Mu Xinran? We need to give her a statement."
"Xinran is at home."
"We need to give her a statement and search her home." Han Bin said.
"Okay, I'll contact her."
"How about this, you tell her that everything is normal. We will first send people from the technical team over to check if there are any listening devices or surveillance devices in the living room. If there aren't any, we will give a statement in the living room. As for the camera in the bedroom, I will deal with it when I get there." Han Bin said.
"Okay, I understand." Li Xia walked to the side and called Mu Xinran.
"I will arrange the task." Han Bin glanced at the members of Team 2. "Tian Li and Xiaopeng, you two go to the communications company to find the blackmailer's phone number."
"Yes."
"Zhao Ming, inform Reuven from the technical team to follow us out of the crime scene."
"Okay."
…
Peng Xin's home.
This was a high-class residential area. There were large houses and it was very close to the sea. Those who could afford a house here were either rich or respectable.
In an off-road vehicle.
Li Hui rubbed his hands and asked Han Bin, "Brother Bin, when I see Mu Xinran later, can I get an autograph?"
"When did you start chasing celebrities?" Han Bin asked in surprise.
"Hehe, there will always be people who like celebrities. An autograph might be useful." Li Hui laughed.
"Brother Hui, you are trying to please the person you just met, right?" Zhao Ming guessed.
"Go go go, it's none of your business." Li Hui harrumphed.
Li Xia informed the security guard and the two cars went straight out of the garage.
Li Xia brought Reuven upstairs first while Han Bin and the others waited in the car.
"Why do I suddenly feel a little nervous?" Zhao Ming took a deep breath.
"What are you nervous about?"
"This is the first time I've seen a celebrity in my life. I've only seen them on TV before. Now that I've seen them in person, I feel a little weird." Zhao Ming said.
"Look at you. Aren't celebrities people too? How can you have an extra head?" Li Hui curled his lips as if he had forgotten that he wanted to ask for an autograph.
Han Bin laughed. He didn't chase celebrities, but this was the first time he had seen a celebrity. He was somewhat looking forward to it.
After a while, Reuven called Han Bin and asked him to go up.
Han Bin and the others got into the elevator and went straight to the seventh floor.
Li Xia stood at the entrance of the elevator and waited. She led Han Bin and the others into Room 701.
Once they entered, they saw a spacious living room. The area was very large. From the living room, it could be seen that this house was at least a four-bedroom.
On the sofa in the living room sat a woman in her thirties. She had long hair and was very beautiful. Han Bin also felt that she was familiar. It was the celebrity of the entertainment circle, Mu Xinran.
"Xinran, this is Officer Han from the criminal police team." Li Xia introduced.
"Officer Han, hello." Mu Xinran stood up and said politely.
"Hello." Han Bin nodded.
"Police comrades, please sit down." Li Xia greeted.
Han Bin sat on the sofa and asked Reuven, "Are there any surveillance and listening devices in the living room?"
"No." Reuven said.
Han Bin nodded and said, "The technical team can take a break first. After we finish the statement, we'll check the cameras in the room."
"OK." Reuven habitually adjusted his glasses with his palm.
After handing over the work, Han Bin looked at Mu Xinran. This was the first time he had a close contact with a female celebrity. He couldn't help but size her up.
Mu Xinran was quite beautiful, but she was very thin. She had a flat figure and didn't have any lines.
This kind of figure might be more photogenic, but Han Bin still liked curves.
To be honest, Han Bin was a little disappointed. This Mu Xinran was also considered a beauty in the entertainment circle. Her face was indeed beautiful, but in terms of figure, she couldn't compare to Han Bin's ex-girlfriend.
