The next morning.
Because there was a case, Han Bin and Li Hui came early and ate at the branch office's cafeteria.
Li Hui was peeling an egg and asked, "Brother Bin, this Yu Hefeng looks like a decent person. Why did he do such a dirty thing?"
"The world is big, and there are all kinds of people."
"What do you think his wife and daughter will think of him if they know?" Li Hui asked curiously.
"You can ask him yourself during the interrogation." Han Bin could not be bothered with him. He only knew how to talk nonsense.
Li Hui seemed to have thought of something and giggled. He took a bite of half of the egg and finished it in two mouthfuls.
After lunch, both of them went to Team Two's office. Usually, when there was a case, Zeng Ping would have a morning meeting to adjust the direction of the investigation and arrange the tasks accordingly.
In the office, Han Bin made a pot of water and brewed a cup of green tea. He sat on the chair and closed his eyes to rest.
He relied on his brain to make a living. If he had nothing to do, he would be able to maintain his best mental state when handling a case.
Tian Li, Zhao Ming, Zeng Ping and the rest also arrived at the office.
Zeng Ping yawned and poured himself a cup of tea.
"Captain Zeng, didn't Captain Zheng say that he wants to increase our team's manpower? Why is there no news? "Han Bin blew on the tea leaves floating on the cup.
"Our team only has five people. We can handle normal cases, but we will definitely not have enough manpower for major cases." Li Hui added.
"I have been keeping an eye on this matter. Captain Zheng is also thinking about it. It's better to have no people than to have a substandard person. We have to find the right person."
"Captain Zeng, what kind of people do you think are suitable for our team?" Tian Li asked.
"A complete team needs to have a clear division of labor. We have just been established. Although we do not have many people, we fit this structure perfectly."
At that moment, Reuven entered the office. "Captain Zeng, the test report is out."
"Reuven, why do you have panda eyes?" Zhao Ming laughed.
Reuven took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes. "It's all because of your team's case. I worked overtime to finish the test."
"You've worked hard on your glasses. I'll treat you to a meal some other day." Zeng Ping pulled out a chair for him to sit down.
"I'm glad to hear that." Reuven took out a stack of documents and handed it to Zeng Ping.
"This thing looks strenuous. Just pick the important ones." Zeng Ping waved his hand.
"There are no videos of the victims on the phone," Reuven said.
"Could it have been deleted?"
Reuven shook his head. "I've already tried to recover."
"Are there any clues about the envelope and USB drive?" Zeng Ping asked.
"No fingerprints or DNA. It's very clean."
"Is there any way to find the source of the envelope and USB drive?" Tian Li asked.
"That's your job." Reuven shrugged and left the office.
"There are many manufacturers and a large production of the envelope and USB drive. It's very difficult to find the source." Zeng Ping looked at the envelope and USB drive. They were both common types.
"I think it's better to interrogate Yu Hefeng. He was the one who took the video, so he's the most suspicious of extortion," Zhao Ming said.
"I agree with Zhao Ming," Tian Li said.
"Why don't Han Bin and I be in charge of the interrogation this time?" Li Hui suggested.
Zeng Ping turned his head and looked at Han Bin. "What do you think?"
Han Bin frowned and pondered. The video case was solved, but the extortion case was in an impasse.
Ring ring ring … A ringtone broke the silence.
Tian Li took out her phone and looked at it. "It's Chen Luyan's phone."
"Answer."
Tian Li answered the phone, and her face became more and more ugly.
After hanging up, Zhao Ming couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Is there a new clue? "
Tian Li sighed. "I'm afraid Han Bin guessed correctly."
"What do you mean?" Li Hui said.
"Chen Luyan received another extortion letter."
…
Half an hour later.
Criminal Investigation Team Three, Team Two, and the technical team rushed to Anyang Apartment again.
Han Bin and the others rushed to the fourth floor. The door of Room 408 was open.
They put on shoe covers and walked into the room.
There were two people in the room. Chen Luyan was sitting on the bed, and her face was a little ugly.
There was also a man sitting on the sofa next to her.
"Captain Zeng, you're finally here." Chen Luyan got up as if she had seen her backbone.
"We rushed here as soon as we received the call."
"This is my boyfriend, Xiang Shaoming," Chen Luyan introduced.
Zeng Ping observed for a while. The young man was tall and thin, and he looked quite energetic.
"Where's the extortion letter?"
"On the table. I remember you said that I can't touch it. I picked it up with chopsticks."
Zeng Ping walked over and checked the envelope. It was exactly the same as the last envelope. After opening it, there was also a USB flash drive inside.
Han Bin also picked it up and looked at it. "When did you find the envelope?"
"I didn't stay in the apartment last night. This morning, Shao Ming accompanied me. He wanted to get some clothes to change into. When he opened the door, he found an envelope at the door."
"It seems that the method is the same as yesterday. It was stuffed through the crack of the door," Li Hui said.
"Captain Zeng, didn't you already arrest the landlord? Why is there a blackmail letter? "Chen Luyan asked.
"Ahem …" Zeng Ping coughed, feeling a little awkward.
"According to the evidence we have so far, the person who took the photos and the blackmail are not the same person. They are two different cases," Han Bin said.
"Does that mean that Luyan's photos might be posted online?" Xiang Shaoming looked worried.
"The police will solve the case as soon as possible and catch the suspect."
In order to relieve the awkward atmosphere, Zeng Ping directly assigned a task.
"Tian Li, plug the USB flash drive into the computer and see what's inside."
"Okay."
"Li Hui, go to the surveillance room and check the surveillance footage. See if there are any suspicious people."
"Yes."
Although the possibility of capturing the suspect was not high, he still had to do what he had to do.
"Han Bin, go to the door and see if there are any clues."
"Yes."
Han Bin wore his shoes and walked to the door. He looked carefully. The floor was made of tiles. If the soles of the shoes were not dirty, there would be no obvious footprints.
Han Bin walked around the room but did not find any obvious traces.
"Captain Zeng, the contents of the USB flash drive are the same as yesterday. It's still the bathing photos and a blackmail letter," Tian Li said.
"Check the blackmail letter."
"Prepare fifty thousand yuan at seven o 'clock tonight. Put it in the third trash can on the north side of the People's Square. I'm the one who lent you the money. I'll pay you back when I have it. If I don't get the money tonight, or if you call the police to arrest me, I'll post your photos online."
After listening to the blackmail letter, Chen Luyan broke down. "Fifty thousand yuan? Where am I going to get so much money?"
"Luyan, don't worry. Let's think of something together." Xiang Shaoming reached out and patted his girlfriend's shoulder.
"Miss Chen, another blackmail letter means that the suspect doesn't know that the police are involved. As long as we set up surveillance, we will definitely catch the suspect tonight." Zeng Ping comforted her.
