A few minutes later, Li Jinying returned to the resting room and agreed to Han Bin's request.
Han Bin and Bao Xing were brought to the surveillance room.
The surveillance room was about 20 to 30 square meters, and an entire wall was made into a surveillance screen. There was a staff watching the surveillance.
Each screen was at a corner of the bank, and different cameras were recording from different angles. Han Bin had also checked many surveillance cameras, and no one could beat them in terms of security.
Li Jinying left after bringing the two of them to the surveillance room, leaving only Han Bin, Bao Xing, and the staff in charge of the surveillance.
Han Bin was not familiar with the situation here, and there were too many surveillance cameras. It was a little confusing. With the help of the staff called Xiao Wu, they were able to figure out the location of the surveillance cameras.
In theory, the surveillance cameras in this bank had no blind spots, and every position could be monitored.
Han Bin checked the surveillance cameras on August 2nd, and first checked Li Shiwei's route in and out of the bank. He took out all the surveillance cameras that could capture Li Shiwei, and temporarily excluded the rest.
There were a total of nine surveillance cameras that recorded Li Shiwei's movements, and it was a lot of work to compare them one by one.
Han Bin divided the video into three parts. The first part was Li Shiwei coming to the bank, the second part was to withdraw money, and the third part was to leave.
The first camera that captured Li Shiwei was outside the bank. A Jinbei car was parked in the parking lot in front of the bank, and a man in police uniform alighted from the car, followed by Li Shiwei and Lin Zhengyi. There was another police officer in the car.
After that, the police officer who alighted from the car stood at the entrance of the bank and observed the surroundings. Only Li Shiwei and Lin Zhengyi entered the bank, and after they communicated with the manager, they were invited to the resting room to check their identities.
Han Bin checked the video several times, and there was no problem with the process. There were three staff in charge of withdrawing, storing, and checking the money, and it was done under the supervision of Li Shiwei and Lin Zhengyi. The suspicion of the bank staff could be eliminated.
After watching the video, it was already noon, and Bao Xing went out to buy two lunch boxes. After lunch, the two of them continued to watch the video.
Storing the money was done in the VIP room, and it could be said that there were no blind spots in the entire process.
After that, it was time to take the money and leave.
At this stage, Li Shiwei and Lin Zhengyi separated. Lin Zhengyi walked out of the bank first and spoke to the police officer at the bank's entrance.
Han Bin roughly figured out the reason for Lin Zhengyi's departure through lip reading.
After withdrawing the money, Li Shiwei asked him to inform the police to check the surroundings. If there were no abnormalities, Li Shiwei would leave with the box of cash.
Originally, this situation was considered normal, and no one could find any fault with it.
However, not long after Lin Zhengyi left the lounge, Li Shiwei also pushed the suitcase out of the lounge and declined the bank staff's escort.
Li Shiwei pushed the box through the bank lobby and met up with Lin Zhengyi and the police officers at the bank entrance. During this time, Li Shiwei was alone with the box of cash.
Han Bin checked the surveillance footage during this period of time several times, but he did not see any problems. It was as if he had just taken the money and left naturally.
If it wasn't for the fact that Li Shiwei was a major suspect, there was nothing wrong with Li Shiwei just by looking at the video.
After all, he only pushed the box from the VIP room to the bank entrance. In the eyes of ordinary people, there was no place safer than the bank.
However, after Han Bin checked several cameras and compared the surveillance footage from various angles, he found a problem. When Li Shiwei walked through the lobby, he would pass by a counter. This counter was about one meter high, and there was no staff inside. It was specially for customers to fill in their information.
There was a huge round stone pillar diagonally opposite the counter.
There was a surveillance blind spot between the counter and the stone pillar. This surveillance blind spot was only about one meter high. When people passed by, they would still be captured by the surveillance camera in the direction of the counter. However, when the box passed by, it happened to be blocked by the counter, and the stone pillar blocked the surveillance camera on the other side.
When passing through this section of the road, Han Bin could not see the box for a moment. This time was very short, maybe only about one second.
When Han Bin saw the box again, he found that the distance between the box and Li Shiwei's right foot had increased. From the surveillance footage, this change was not very obvious, but Han Bin's observation was far better than ordinary people, and he could still see the abnormality.
Han Bin repeatedly checked this surveillance footage, and came to a bold speculation. There was originally a box between the counter and the pillar, and this box was exactly the same as the box that Li Shiwei was holding. When passing through this surveillance blind spot, Li Shiwei took away the box that was prepared in advance, and left the box with the cash.
If this speculation was correct, then Li Shiwei should have an accomplice in the bank. This accomplice should have placed the fake box in advance, and after the successful exchange, he would take away the box with the cash.
Han Bin continued to check the surveillance footage, and he found a man not far from the counter. This man was wearing a cap and a mask, a blue T-shirt, and a pair of casual pants. He was sitting on a stool not far from the counter, and it seemed like he was waiting for business.
Han Bin observed carefully. After entering the bank, the man had been looking around. After Lin Zhengyi and Li Shiwei appeared, the man obviously lowered his head, but his eyes had been following the two.
Han Bin focused the surveillance footage on this man, and he checked all the surveillance footage of him entering and exiting the bank.
This man arrived at the bank at about 9: 10 am, and when he entered the bank, he was also pushing a suitcase. This suitcase was similar in size to the box with the money, but there was a blue case cover on the outside, and the color of the suitcase could not be seen.
After the man entered the bank, he pushed the suitcase to the counter, and then sat on a stool not far away. During this period, the man only stood up twice. Once was when Lin Zhengyi left the lobby, and the other time was when Li Shiwei left the lobby.
Han Bin felt that the man probably stood up to change the case cover.
Shortly after Li Shiwei left, the man also pushed the suitcase and left. During this period, he did not handle any business, nor did he consult the bank staff.
Moreover, this man consciously avoided the camera, and with the cap and mask, his face could hardly be seen. It was obvious that he had a guilty conscience.
At this time, the case had become clear. The man who pushed the suitcase was most likely Li Shiwei's accomplice.
Han Bin continued to check the man's whereabouts. From the surveillance footage at the entrance of the bank, he could see that the man walked out of the bank to a black Volvo sedan, put the suitcase with the cash into the trunk, and then drove away.
Han Bin zoomed in on the surveillance footage and noted down the Volvo's license plate number: Lu B343HD.
Then, he took out his phone and made a call.
"Hello, Captain Han." Li Qin's voice came from the phone.
"How's your investigation going?"
"I asked the technical department to check the phone numbers under Li Shiwei and Wang Zhixiang's names, but they didn't find any direct contact between the two, nor did they find any common contacts." Li Qin paused, then suggested, "Should we expand the scope of the investigation and see if their family members' phone numbers are in contact?"
"Sister Li, put aside the investigation of the phone communications for now. Go and check the license plate number Lu B343HD."
Li Qin noted down the license plate number and asked, "Captain Han, is there any problem with this license plate number?"
"We checked the bank's surveillance footage and found that Li Shiwei might have switched the suitcase with the cash in the bank. One of the men who is suspected to be his accomplice is driving this black Volvo."
"Got it, I'll check it now."
As long as they found this suspicious man, they could find the whereabouts of the stolen money.
