City Criminal Police Team Conference Room. The tracking of Mizuno Choji has been going on for several days, and the customs has also fed back information. He Xiaohui convened members of the task force to analyze the case.
"The woman who was followed by Mizuno Choji is named Duan Rumeng, and she is the general manager of Nakae Rumeng Perfume Company. We learned from public sources that Duan Rumeng's company is a perfume development company, and their perfume production is
When outsourced to other factories, the main customers are terminal marketing companies." Ding Yiran reported.
"They don't make their own brands?"
"Yes, they sell perfume to companies that do brand marketing and some industrial perfume users."
"Has Higashino Choji been following her?"
"Yes. Recently, Higashino Choji has been following Duan Rumeng almost 24 hours a day. It seems that he is collecting Duan Rumeng's life and work patterns."
"What is the purpose of his tracking?"
"Judging from the tracking of Higashino Choji, he did not get too close to Duan Rumeng, and he seemed to be afraid of being discovered by the other party."
"If Higashino Ting wanted to kill Duan Rumeng, where do you think he would start?" He Xiaohui asked.
"I think we will do it in the underground parking lot. Although there are surveillance cameras in the parking lot, they are not available in every area." Zhang Pengfei said.
"But if the entrance and exit of the parking lot are monitored, it will still be difficult for the murderer not to be discovered." Su Le said.
"A murderer with a little bit of intelligence can still deal with those parking lot surveillance cameras," Zhang Pengfei said.
"Well, this sentence makes sense." Su Le said.
"In this case, do we need to ambush people in the parking lot to monitor us?" Zhang Pengfei said.
"I think it makes sense, especially in the underground parking lot of Duan Rumeng's home and company, where there is less traffic and the monitoring system is easier to be destroyed," He Xiaohui said.
"If Higashino Choji has the possibility of murdering Duan Rumeng, I think it would be better for us to contact Duan Rumeng. Always following passively like this is not an option," Su Le said.
"Yes, if we can get the evidence that Higashino Choji hired a murderer before he committed the crime, we can arrest them in advance." Dr. Qiao said.
"If we contact Duan Rumeng in advance, will we be exposed?" He Xiaohui asked.
"If it's handled properly, it shouldn't happen," Su Le said.
"Okay, then we plan to contact Duan Rumeng."
"But what if I tell Duan Rumeng the truth and scare her?"
"Are you afraid that she won't dare to go out in the future?"
"If Duan Rumeng doesn't go out, the killer won't be able to succeed, and the person who paid for the murder will contact the murderer again. Then don't we have a chance?" Dr. Qiao said.
"Well, Dr. Qiao is right." Su Le said.
"By the way, Su Le, what's the status of the customs investigation?" He Xiaohui asked.
"After investigation by the customs, it was found that the overseas customer channels of direct companies are relatively single. Basically all their products are sold to Southeast Asia and Australia. They basically have one country and one customer in Australia and Southeast Asia, and these customers are all trading companies.
, none is a dedicated watch sales or manufacturer.”
"Oh, aren't they an OEM company? Shouldn't their customers be some internationally renowned watch manufacturers?"
"Customs also provided partial customer lists of some famous watch OEMs in the south, which are very different from the customer lists of direct companies and have no connection whatsoever," Su Le said.
"Customs also discovered a problem, which is that the prices of watches exported by this company are relatively expensive. The prices differ by more than 10 times from those of watch OEMs in the south, and the prices of some products even reach tens of thousands of yuan."
"Money laundering? Is this company a tool used by the Gekko organization to launder money?" He Xiaohui asked.
"It is possible, but it is currently difficult for us to prove that their business is illegal."
"Then how can we catch the fox's tail?" He Xiaohui asked.
"I have two approaches to this problem." Su Le stood up and said to everyone:
"One way is to require police organizations from multiple countries to cooperate and investigate the situation of their foreign customers. If foreign companies buy watches at higher prices and sell watches at lower prices, it can be proved that they
Money laundering.”
"The second method is to go inside the direct companies and find out the costs of their products. If it can be proved that their products have unreasonable huge profits, it can also prove that they are laundering money."
"The first method requires evidence from the second method as support before seeking help from Interpol. Moreover, the efficiency of Interpol's work is also very worrying. Last time we asked for assistance in the investigation of the Australian Good Grape Trading Company.
There is no news yet." He Xiaohui said helplessly.
"It seems that we can only start with the second method at present." Su Le said.
"The second method can actually be worked around. I think since this company has been operating in Zhongjiang for many years, there must be some employees who have left their company. We can start from this aspect and understand some of the situation first," said Dr. Qiao.
.
"But where are we going to find these people?" Su Le asked.
"As for the social security department, Japanese companies have to pay social security for their employees," Dr. Qiao said.
"Well, what Dr. Qiao said makes sense." He Xiaohui nodded.
"Well, what Dr. Qiao said makes sense." Su Le said while holding back his laughter.
"Well, what Dr. Qiao said makes sense." Zhang Pengfei said while holding back his laughter.
"What's the point? Go to work quickly!" He Xiaohui stood up and patted the conference table.
Hearing the captain's anger, people in the conference room quickly split up.
The decoration style of Zhongjiang Rumeng Perfume Co., Ltd. can be said to be very avant-garde and creative. The irregular doors and windows, diagonal columns, and exaggerated ceilings all give people a sci-fi feel.
If these avant-garde decoration styles are compared with the clothes of their company's boss Duan Rumeng, they will appear outdated and old-fashioned. Duan Rumeng is half a head taller than He Xiaohui, and looks to be more than 1.8 meters tall.
She has a delicate figure and a beautiful face. Even without her exaggerated attire, it is enough to give anyone a sense of oppression.
The huge straight collar almost completely wrapped her head. The beige top with short sleeves, waist and long hem looked like a chief from the desert. The pants made of unknown materials were unusually fat and fluffy.
, wrapping her entire feet in it. The first impression Duan Rumeng gave people was that she was different and beautiful.
Facing such a beautiful woman, He Xiaohui and Su Le exchanged glances, and it was He Xiaohui who spoke first.
"Ms. Duan Rumeng, we are the police."
"Ah! Police." Duan Rumeng obviously didn't expect that two police officers would come to look for her.
"Yes, we are the criminal police of Zhongjiang City Police Station. My name is He Xiaohui, and this is my colleague Su Le." He Xiaohui introduced herself first.
"Oh, please take a seat." Duan Rumeng led them to a silver-grey reception room to sit down, and handed them mineral water.
"Excuse me, why are you two looking for me?" Duan Rumeng asked tentatively.
He Xiaohui looked at the tall and beautiful female boss in front of her and thought about how to start the conversation. In the end, she chose a straightforward approach.
"We found someone following you."
"Oh, that's true." Duan Rumeng took a breath after hearing this.
"You know you're being followed?"
"No, I'm not sure. I just have a feeling in the past few days, a feeling of being peeped, and I always feel that there is a pair of eyes watching me from behind."
"Your senses are very keen. In the past few days, someone has indeed been following you 24 hours a day. There are people following you in the garage of your community, on the way to work, after get off work, and on the way to meet clients."
"Then, how did you know?" Duan Rumeng looked a little flustered after hearing He Xiaohui's words.
"We're following the guy who's following you."
"Oh, so that's it. Then what do you want to know when you come to me?"
"We came to you today because we want to understand your situation, provide you with protection, and find the person who wants to harm you."
"Will the person following me kill me?" Duan Rumeng asked in a panic.
"We are not sure about this, so we came to you to understand the situation. If someone wants to kill you, with your keen sense, you will not know it."
Duan Rumeng stood up and took out a cigarette from his handbag, asked for He Xiaohui's opinion, lit a cigarette and walked around the room. Su Le did not expect that such a beautiful and elegant woman also smoked, and she couldn't help feeling worried about this.
Duan Rumeng felt a little disgusted.
He Xiaohui looked at the hesitant Duan Rumeng, thinking that she had already found the answer, but was just hesitating whether to tell the police. So He Xiaohui was not in a hurry to get an answer. She looked at Duan Rumeng, whose face was full of confusion.
I know that she will definitely say what she wants to say for her own safety.
Duan Rumeng finished smoking the cigarette in his hand, put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray on the table, and sighed longly and said:
"In this world, if someone really wants to kill me, it must be her."
"Who?" He Xiaohui asked.
"My half-sister Duan Rumeng." Duan Rumeng lowered his head and his voice was as low as a mosquito.
"Your sister? Why did she want to kill you?" He Xiaohui asked in confusion.
"I think it may be, no, it must be jealousy." Duan Rumeng raised his head and looked directly at He Xiaohui and said.
"I don't understand what you mean, can you explain it to me in detail?"
"Of course, but before I talk, I want to ask you a question."
"Please say."
"If I arrest her before killing me, will she be sentenced to death?"
"If she has no other crimes and has not caused any harm to you, she will generally not be sentenced to death. At most, it will only be attempted murder, and she may be sentenced to 3-5 years in prison."
"Okay, let me tell you my story next." Duan Rumeng took a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed the cap and took a sip and asked:
"Can you imagine that I, who look so glamorous now, grew up in an orphanage?"
"Ah, are you an orphan? Then why do you have a sister?" Su Le asked.
"Everything I am today and everything I will face in the future is thanks to my father." Duan Rumeng raised his head and looked at the silver-gray ceiling, his thoughts having already drifted to 30 years ago.
