Ding Xifeng took out two buckets of instant noodles and two hams. "Let's eat first. When the case is over, I'll treat you to a good meal."
Han Bin was so hungry that his chest was sticking to his back. He quickly tore open the packaging of the instant noodles. "I don't want anything else right now, as long as I can eat my fill."
The two of them soaked it in boiling water and continued to talk about the case. "What do you think we should do next?"
Han Bin thought for a moment and replied, "Hu Dingrong has been in contact with the criminal leader, Brother Xuan. I think we can check their phone numbers to see if we can track the suspect. However, considering that Brother Xuan is a cunning person, the possibility isn't too high."
"Also, according to Xu Yuehua, they have a stronghold in Yangma Village. I think we can search it and maybe find some clues related to the other accomplices."
"One more thing, Xu Yuehua has confirmed that the stolen money was indeed transported in a red scooter. According to her, the scooter was stolen by a person nicknamed 'Jiao Tou'. I think we can start with this nickname and see if we can find him."
These suspects all had nicknames, but no one could tell if they were locals or foreigners. Even if they were locals, Qin Island was so big that it wouldn't be easy to find them.
However, Horn Head was different. He chose to steal a scooter in Peace Town, which meant that he was familiar with the situation there. It was very likely that he had been there before. Han Bin felt that he should focus on this investigation.
Ding Xifeng agreed with Han Bin's suggestion. He ate a few mouthfuls of instant noodles and said, "Then let's split into three groups. I'll check Hu Dingrong and Brother Xuan's phone numbers. Zhu Jiaxu has been investigating in Anping Town and is relatively familiar with them. Let him inquire about the suspect nicknamed Horn Head. Take some people to Yangma Village to search. "
Han Bin drank a mouthful of noodle soup and smoothed it down. "Alright, I'll take some people there after I finish eating."
"You must be careful. Captain Ma is already injured. I don't want anyone else to be injured."
"I will be careful."
"Take some people to take a look first. If the situation isn't right, call for backup immediately. Safety first."
"Yes."
…
Han Bin had never been to Yangma Village, so he wasn't familiar with the situation there. Considering that the suspect had a gun, he didn't dare search recklessly.
Han Bin brought his men to the Peace Town Police Station first. It was still the director of the station, Song Xinqiao, who received Han Bin.
Han Bin chatted with Song Xinqiao for a while to understand the situation in Yangma Village. At the same time, he told him the nicknames of Brother Xuan, Jiao Tou, and the others, and asked him to help him find out.
The comrades in the police station were on the frontlines all year round. Although the area was small, they were more familiar with the situation in the area. Any troublesome people in the area would be recorded by them.
Song Xinqiao called a few police officers who were familiar with the local situation to question them. Unfortunately, no one knew who these people were.
However, Song Xinqiao still agreed and would continue to help him gather information.
After that, Song Xinqiao personally brought Han Bin and the others to Yangma Village.
Speaking of the origin of Yangma Village, many people would think that there were more people raising horses in the village when they heard the name. However, that wasn't the case. At the beginning, there were two families in Yangma Village, one surnamed Yang and the other surnamed Ma. As the population multiplied and moved in, it gradually became a village and was named Yangma Village.
Xu Yuehua was also escorted to Yangma Village and needed her help to identify the location.
Han Bin still didn't trust Xu Yuehua. Although she was crying in the interrogation room and seemed to be repentant, as the old saying goes, you can't judge a person's heart from their face.
Xu Yuehua deliberately shielded Hu Dingrong, causing Ma Jingbo to be shot. This was not an easy thing to get over. If Xu Yuehua could provide clues that could help solve the case, there might be a chance to make up for her mistakes. Otherwise, she would definitely be charged with obstructing law enforcement.
Han Bin brought some people to watch over Xu Yuehua while Director Song Xinqiao went to the village committee to invite the village chief, Yang Shao 'an.
Then, under Xu Yuehua's lead, the group found the criminal group's stronghold. It was a house located at the south entrance of Yangma Village.
Han Bin didn't dare to enter rashly. He asked the village chief, Yang Shao 'an, to come forward and ask the surrounding neighbors to understand the situation of the house.
According to the surrounding villagers, the owner of the house was called Ma Guoxian. He was from the village and had two houses. He was currently living in the east of the village. Because this house had been empty, he rented it out.
The neighbors also said that the tenants didn't live there often. They would only come occasionally, and there would be quite a number of people every time. However, in the past two days, no one had come in or out.
Han Bin walked in to check. The door was locked. According to the surrounding neighbors, there shouldn't be anyone inside.
However, with Hu Dingrong as an example, Han Bin didn't dare to be careless. He made a strict search plan.
Han Bin got the people from the police station to stand guard outside while he personally led his team in to search. The people searching were all armed with guns and wearing bulletproof vests. Wang Xiao and Bao Xing were in one group, Jiang Yang and Li Qin were in another group, and Han Bin and Zhao Ming were in another group.
Zhu Jiaxu's danger level was relatively low, so Han Bin transferred Zhao Ming over and gave him a gun.
Zhao Ming seemed very excited. As he was relatively inexperienced, he didn't have many opportunities to touch a gun.
The house wasn't small. It had a large yard, but there weren't many houses. There were only two houses in the north and one in the south. There was a pigsty on the west side.
Han Bin and the others went to the roof of the neighbor's house. They observed from the roof but didn't find any movement.
Then, Han Bin and the others climbed down the ladder. The doors of the north and south houses were locked.
After Han Bin observed for a while, he left Jiang Yang and Li Qin outside the south house. He, Wang Xiao, Bao Xing, and Zhao Ming searched the north house first.
Zhao Ming took the big pliers and broke the lock of the north house's door. He quickly dodged to the side. Bao Xing kicked the door open and Han Bin and Wang Xiao rushed in from the left and right.
There was no one in the house and there wasn't much furniture. Then, the four of them searched the north house carefully.
"Safe!"
"Safe."
"Captain Han, I found a bag here. It might be left behind by the suspect."
Han Bin didn't check it. He ordered, "Put it aside first. We'll look after we search the south house."
Then, Han Bin led his men to search the south house. After breaking the door, there was a table on the right. There was obvious dust on it. It seemed that no one had entered the house for a long time.
However, Han Bin still led his men to search the house but didn't find the suspect.
While Han Bin was relieved, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Han Bin put away his gun and ordered, "Wang Xiao, bring some men to search the house and see if the suspect left any other clues. Zhao Ming, bring the bag found in the north house. "
"Yes."
Zhao Ming brought the bag over.
The bag was black and it was a common handbag. Han Bin took a few photos before putting on his gloves and opening the bag. There was a blue police uniform inside. Han Bin took the uniform out of the bag.
Zhao Ming was also watching from the side. He was sharp-eyed and said in surprise, "Guns. There are two guns inside."
Han Bin picked up the gun and weighed it. "It's fake."
