"Thank you."
Mu Xinran squeezed out a smile, as if Han Bin was really praising her.
Women who could work in the entertainment industry weren't simple, and Thick Black Theory was a compulsory course. That way, it would be easier for them to succeed.
"Where's Li Hanxuan?" Han Bin asked.
"He should still be on Qin Island."
"Does he know that you were blackmailed?"
"No."
"Call him over. We need to give him a statement," Han Bin said.
Mu Xinran hesitated. "I think he should be fine. There's no need to suspect him."
"Why do you say that?"
"My intuition."
"Then feel for yourself. Who's blackmailing you?" Han Bin asked.
"I'll call him over," Mu Xinran answered. She picked up her phone and said, "What should I tell him?"
"Tell him that you have something to talk to him about."
"What if he wants me to do?"
"It's not convenient to talk on the phone. We'll talk face to face."
"That's not a good idea," Mu Xinran said hesitantly.
"Not everyone is willing to cooperate with the police. Some people have a conflict with the police. If the person involved does not cooperate with the summons, it is likely to affect the progress of the case. Do as you see fit," Han Bin said.
"Okay, I'll contact him now," Mu Xinran said and walked into the second bedroom.
At this time, Reuven walked out of the master bedroom with a camera and a toolbox. "Leader Han, the camera has been removed."
"Are there any fingerprints?"
"No."
Han Bin put on gloves and looked at the camera. He asked, "How does this camera work?"
"The camera is connected to a power source and can be constantly monitored. Once the memory is used up, it'll be switched off," Reuven explained.
"How did the suspect get the surveillance video?"
"It can be directly copied to the memory card or transmitted through a wireless network," Reuven said.
"How do you think the suspect got the video?" Han Bin asked.
"The second method is wireless network transmission."
"Can we find the suspect through transmission?" Han Bin asked.
"As long as the camera is connected to a wireless network, it can transmit the video over. It can be either Wi-Fi or a mobile hotspot. All we can get from the camera phone is the name of an account that has been used before."
"What's the name of your online account?" Han Bin asked.
Reuven propped his chin with his palm and said, "I love you, Little Ranran."
"What the hell?"
"I love you, Little Ranran."
Han Bin heard it clearly this time. He took out his phone and searched for WiFi, but he didn't find an account with this name.
The suspect had either changed his Wi-Fi account name or used a hotspot on his phone, which could only be found when the phone was activated.
"Is this transmission method fast?" Han Bin asked.
"It won't be too soon."
"In other words, the suspect must have stayed near the house for a while to transmit the video," Han Bin said.
"Yes, the wireless network signal must be able to cover the camera. It should be within a radius of 20 meters."
"Li Hui, Zhao Ming, the two of you go and check the neighborhood's surveillance. See if anyone suspicious came to this floor," Han Bin ordered.
"Yes."
"Reuven, collect the cigarette butts in the ashtray on the balcony."
"Got it."
After arranging the task, Han Bin left the house and began to wander around the corridor. He didn't find anything unusual.
Then, Han Bin entered the stairway and found two cigarette butts in the corner of the stairway platform.
To transmit the video stored in the camera to the phone and computer, the camera must be connected to the network. The coverage area of the wireless network was only about 20 meters, and it took a certain amount of time to upload the video. The suspect must have stayed nearby for a while.
The stairway was not easy to find. It was a good hiding place, and the two cigarette butts were likely left by the suspect.
Han Bin called a technical team member to collect the two cigarette butts and bring them back to the branch for identification.
Han Bin took off his gloves and returned to the hall. Mu Xinran had already finished her phone call and was sitting on the sofa in a daze.
Li Xia purposely reminded her, "Officer Han."
Mu Xinran recovered and turned to Han Bin. "Officer Han, I've contacted Li Hanxuan. He's on his way. He'll be here in about half an hour."
"I'll wait for him." Han Bin nodded.
"Officer Han, there are drinks in the fridge. What would you like to drink?" Mu Xinran asked.
"Don't mention it. I'm not thirsty." Han Bin waved his hand and then seemed to remember something. "How many keys do you have?"
Han Bin had bought locks before, and normally, there would be several spare keys for each lock.
"I can't remember that." Mu Xinran thought for a moment. "But the spare keys should be inside the drawer."
"Go find them and let me see."
Mu Xinran stood up and said, "They're in the master bedroom. I'll go get them."
"I'll go with you." Han Bin followed her.
Mu Xinran's bedroom was very big. It had a separate balcony and bathroom, a row of tall wardrobes, and an exquisite dressing table.
Mu Xinran walked to the dressing table and reached out to open the bottom drawer.
Han Bin stopped her. "Are you sure they're in these three drawers?"
"I remember putting it here, but I'm not sure if it's really here," Mu Xinran said.
Han Bin put on his gloves. "Stand to the side. I'll look for them."
"Okay," Mu Xinran answered and took two steps back.
Han Bin opened the drawer and started to rummage through it. The first drawer had some lipsticks and cosmetics.
The second drawer had underwear, socks, and some accessories.
The third drawer contained a jumble of odds and ends.
Han Bin found a transparent plastic box with three keys inside — one with a blue handle, one with a yellow handle, and one with a green handle.
Han Bin looked at the keys through the plastic box and asked, "Have you used or touched these spare keys?"
"Probably not. I'm very careful about my privacy. I wouldn't give the keys to others easily," Mu Xinran said.
"I have to take these three spare keys back to the police station to check," Han Bin said.
"Do as you wish. After something like this, the lock has to be changed. There's no point in keeping them." Mu Xinran sighed.
Han Bin took the keys and was about to leave the bedroom when Mu Xinran said, "Officer Han, what brand of cigarette butts are on the balcony?"
"Is it important now?" Han Bin asked.
Mu Xinran revealed a bitter smile. "I know you might have a problem with me, and I did make a mistake, but I didn't mean to lie to you. I hope you can understand."
Han Bin opened his mouth and was about to speak when Mu Xinran's phone suddenly rang. "Bzzt."
Mu Xinran opened her phone. "It's a message from Li Hanxuan. He's here and asked if it's convenient for me to come in."
"Let him in."
Mu Xinran answered. After leaving the bedroom, she walked to the entrance and opened the door. "Xiao Li, come in."
"Okay, Sister Mu." A young man responded. However, as soon as he walked into the entrance, he saw Han Bin and the others in the living room, and he suddenly stopped.
"Sister Mu, you have guests here."
"It's like this. Something happened to me. These police comrades are here to investigate the case." Mu Xinran showed a hint of bitterness.
"Sister, then why did you ask me to come …" The man showed an inquiring look.
Han Bin walked over and looked at the young man. He was quite handsome, and his height was similar to Han Bin. He was very thin.
"You are Li Hanxuan?"
"It's me." The man responded and turned to look at Han Bin. "Who are you?"
"I'm a policeman," said Han Bin.
Li Hanxuan hurriedly said, "Hello, Uncle Policeman."
"Uncle Policeman?" Han Bin smiled and asked, "How old are you?"
"I'm eighteen this year," said Li Hanxuan.
Han Bin was a little surprised. He turned to look at Mu Xinran on the side and thought, "Cheng Cheng knows how to play."
