When Du Weiguo returned to the Municipal Bureau, Tang Wen's office door was not even closed and filled with smoke. He was currently sorting out case files and investigation reports with a tired look on his face.
His hair was messy and shiny, and the bags and dark circles under his eyes were very heavy. The ashtray on his desk was filled with cigarette butts and was overflowing.
Looking up and seeing Du Weiguo, he quickly put out his cigarette butt, stood up and greeted:
"Du Chu, you've been busy all afternoon and you just came back. How was it? Did you gain anything?"
Du Weiguo turned around and closed the door, his eyes were solemn and his tone was low and powerful:
"Tang Chu, I do have some clues here. Do you know the situation of the Tianjin Materials Bureau?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Wen's brows immediately frowned, and his expression became quite solemn. The current Tianjin Materials Bureau was as big as a giant.
At present, the transportation capacity of railways and highways is limited, and the location of Tianjin determines that Tianjin Port is a waterway hub connecting the north and the south, which is the so-called choke point.
Most of the supplies at Tianjin Port first arrive at the Materials Bureau and then flow across the country. Therefore, one can imagine how overbearing the Tianjin City Materials Bureau is.
Tang Wen licked his lips subconsciously: "Du Chu, what do you mean by asking?"
Du Weiguo's eyes were like torches at this time, staring straight at Tang Wen, and said word by word:
"I now have reason to fully suspect that the vehicle used by the suspect is the fuel truck of the Bureau of Materials!"
After Du Weiguo finished speaking, the room immediately fell into a dead silence, the kind where you could hear a pin drop.
After a while, Tang Wencai coughed dryly, and a dry voice sounded:
"Du Chu, this is a serious matter. Do you have any concrete evidence?"
Du Weiguo couldn't help but sneered, Ha! What a big deal! You throw out this word at every turn, who are you trying to scare? I've never seen anything like this before, sir?
"Of course, I now have at least four pieces of concrete evidence, all of which point to the truck pulling oil from the Municipal Materials Bureau.
Tang Chu, we have to take action now, the sooner the better! I'm worried that if it takes too long, there will be changes!"
"Du Chu, what is your specific evidence?"
After hearing what Du Weiguo said so confidently, Tang Wen's tone became very solemn. Du Weiguo lit a cigarette and took a long breath.
"First of all, the reporter in Pangjiazhuang, Mr. Liang, often saw a black oil truck around 5 o'clock in the morning."
"Secondly, almost all crime scenes have counterpart units that pull oil trucks to deliver oil. There were also witnesses on the day, and the time clues are basically consistent!"
"Finally, all the victims smelled of gasoline, either mildly or heavily. I have already gone to the hospital to verify this!"
Du Weiguo paused at this moment, glanced at Tang Wen gently, and then said in a light and slightly joking tone:
"Director Tang, I think so many clear clues should be enough, right?
Not to mention the Materials Bureau, even if it’s a dragon’s pond or a tiger’s den, we should touch it, right?”
Tang Wen subconsciously licked his lips again. This was probably his habitual action:
"Du Chu, we can't be careless about this matter. I'll ask the leader for instructions first."
After speaking, he picked up the phone on the table, but was hung up by Du Weiguo who stepped forward. Du Weiguo looked calm at this time and slowly shook his head at him with a solemn tone:
"Director Tang, except for you, all my people will be used for tonight's operation. The operation process needs to be kept confidential. Of course, if any problems occur, I will naturally be responsible!"
Tang Wen glanced at Du Weiguo in great surprise, and Du Weiguo's eyes seemed to be burning with ghostly fire.
It penetrated his soul in an instant, and it was almost impossible to look straight at him. Tang Wen quickly looked away, and he pondered for a moment:
"What do you want to do?"
Du Weiguo's tone at this moment was very sonorous, implying a soaring evil spirit:
"I want to find this oil truck driver who often appears in Pangjia Village at 5 a.m. right away! Even if he is not the murderer, he must be an accomplice!"
An hour and a half later, at 10 o'clock in the evening, in a small house with a single courtyard in the southern part of Jinmen City.
In the living room in the north, Du Weiguo stood there with a pale face.
On the kang in the back room, Li Zhe, the driver of the oil truck, looked blue-gray, his pupils were dilated and white, he was foaming at the mouth, and he was completely cold.
Kill and silence!
This was an obvious death from hydrogenide poisoning. Lei Qianjun was an experienced detective. He accurately gave the time of his death based on the temperature and stiffness of the body.
Less than 2 hours.
In other words, Du Weiguo just left the hospital with his front leg, and he died from his back leg.
Li Zhe is 37 years old and a widower. His social relations are extremely simple. He has no wife or daughter. His parents have also passed away. He lives alone in this secluded small house.
The clues ended abruptly and were completely disconnected.
Du Weiguo had clearly felt at this time that there seemed to be a pair of invisible eyes in the darkness, staring at him with a proud expression.
"Oh, you are truly worthy of being an immortal! You are really smart and have great magical powers!"
Du Weiguo muttered to himself, while Hanwen beside him snorted coldly.
"Bah! That bullshit immortal is just enjoying too much and not living enough. Head, I think this old guy is probably not dead yet!"
Du Weiguo met Hanwen when he was dealing with Wang Xiao's conflict with evil spirits. When he originally recruited him, did he think it would take a lot of trouble?
Unexpectedly, the process went extremely smoothly. When the boy saw the transfer order, he was immediately overjoyed. He packed up his things and came over to report the matter that day.
In his words, he felt like he was in prison in that Xiangshan Villa, and he almost grew white hair all over his body.
Moreover, this kid looks like he wears glasses and is gentle, but in fact he is as hot as fire and has real kung fu. He has 20 years of boy kung fu and his skills are very good. Even Bart is no match for him in unarmed combat.
In the entire 5 places, Du Weiguo was the only one who could hold him down in a fight, but his marksmanship was terrible. Fortunately, he was not a pure combatant, so there was basically no need for him to charge into battle.
Tang Wen walked over from the back room with a solemn expression: "Director Du, what are you going to do next?"
Du Weiguo glanced at him thoughtfully, suddenly rubbed his belly, raised his hand and glanced at his watch, and said:
"I'm hungry, good guy. I've been busy all day and haven't eaten much. Tang Chu, I'm going to eat a whole mouthful of food. I'll leave this scene to you and investigate the case!"
After saying that, Du Weiguo turned around and left. Naturally, his men followed closely, and they were gone in an instant like the tide dissipating.
Even Kong Nan just looked at him sympathetically and followed Du Weiguo away, leaving only Tang Wen and the confidant he sent to Du Weiguo at the scene of the crime.
Tang Wen stood in the yard with a livid face, watching Du Weiguo's motorcade drive away. He and his two men looked at each other in shock.
In the jeep, Du Weiguo acted like a second-rate man, his tone full of joking:
"Comrade Kong Nan, you are the logistics manager responsible for our security work in Jinmen City.
We have been drinking in the ice and lying in the snow, and have been busy all day in the wind and rain, and we haven't eaten yet? Tell me, what should we do?"
When Kong Nan heard this, he was immediately so angry that the giant Buddha ascended to heaven and the two Buddhas were born. He cursed in his heart and wanted to tear his mouth open, but there was no look of dissatisfaction on his face, and his tone was extremely gentle:
"Du Chu, you and all the comrades have worked hard. Let's go back to the bureau directly. I'll go find the canteen master to make a small stove for you."
When Du Weiguo heard this, he suddenly smiled, hit the snake with the stick, and said with a shameless smile:
"That's great! By the way, Comrade Kong Nan, what is the food standard of this small stove? Your Jinmen City is the capital of gourmet food?
You can't fool me with steamed buns and pickles! Even if you don't have Goubuli steamed buns, at least they have to be braised noodles, right?"
When Kong Nan heard this, his expression could hardly be maintained, and he almost lost his temper with anger.
Let me go to your uncle’s place to make braised noodles! It’s almost midnight right now, where on earth am I going to make braised noodles for you!
She said in a somewhat awkward tone at this time:
"Leader, you see, it's too late now, so making braised noodles may be a bit difficult to achieve. Let's have the master prepare it in advance during the day tomorrow to ensure that you can eat the most authentic Jinmen braised noodles."
The smile on Du Weiguo's face did not diminish, and his tone was also full of smiles:
"Haha, you can't even guarantee making braised noodles. You've been following me around for a day. What use are you doing?"
Although Du Weiguo sounded smiling at this moment, his words were as sharp as a sword!
Kong Nan was dumbfounded by Du Weiguo's question. She was stunned for a moment. She didn't know how to answer Du Weiguo's question.
And it wasn't over yet. Before she could react, Du Weiguo continued to ask with a smile:
"Kong Nan, by the way, who sent you? Is it the yin and yang eccentric Zouping?
Or what about the first brother from the Jinmen City Bureau who I have never met from beginning to end, suddenly fell ill and was hospitalized for recuperation? "
Although we were driving at night and the visibility in the carriage was very low, Kong Nan's pupils were shaking and there was cold sweat on his forehead, and he still couldn't hide from Du Weiguo's dazzling eyes.
He suppressed his smile and said lightly:
"Okay, Comrade Kong Nan, you don't need to answer. It's actually quite tiring to make up lies. I already know the answer."
The carriage was completely silent at the moment, and Kong Nan was completely silent. It was as if her soul had been pierced by Du Weiguo, and she didn't even dare to raise her head.
After a while, Du Weiguo's voice continued to sound like a devil's whisper.
"Kong Nan, I have to eat braised noodles tonight, and I also have to eat braised pork. I don't care how you do it. Even if you try to rob it, you have to get it for me. I have to eat it!"
"Pfft! Hahaha!"
Tang Ahong, who was sitting in the front row, couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing on the spot!
Damn it, when the atmosphere is so serious and depressing, you actually shouted that you want to eat braised noodles, Du Yan Wang, I really didn’t expect you to be such a Du Yan Wang!
How cute!
Kong Nan looked up and glanced at Du Weiguo, dumbfounded. He happened to be passing by a section of road illuminated by street lights.
The outline of Du Weiguo's face is blurred and three-dimensional like a sculpture, and his eyes are like stars, so deep that it's hard to extricate yourself!
Kong Nan's heart felt as if it was pinched hard by an invisible big hand. She quickly lowered her head and said timidly like an obedient little daughter-in-law:
"I, I understand."
At 11:30 in the evening, Du Weiguo got his wish and had authentic Jinmen Braised Noodles, pork belly, eggs, fungus, day lily and mushroom braised noodles, which was very luxurious.
When it comes to Jinmen's braised noodles, it should actually be called noodles, but that's a lot of fuss. Jinmen's noodles are braised with three kinds of delicacies, and they come standard with four plates and eight sizes.
Moreover, the soul of braised noodles is shrimp and gluten, but in this day and age, this kind of braised noodles is indeed the limit!
After eating this unique meal of Braised Noodles, it was already midnight and everything was completely silent.
Du Weiguo simply washed up and set up camp in the office without going to the guest house arranged by Kong Nan in advance.
Tang Ahong and Kong Nan went to the dormitory together. At this time, Du Weiguo was sitting on the long sofa in the office, lighting a cigarette with a calm expression. Lei Qianjun, Hanwen, and Gou Sheng were sitting next to him.
Lei Qianjun is Lao Hao's apprentice. He has obtained part of Lao Hao's true biography, and he can be regarded as half of Du Weiguo's senior brother.
Moreover, when he was in Baoshan City, he also worked closely with Du Weiguo, and they had a tacit understanding with each other. Now he is considered the second person in the 5th Department. He asked in a deep voice:
"Leader, the truck driver's line is now broken. He has obviously been silenced! Should we check this clue?
Find out who leaked the news! Otherwise, there will always be someone stabbing you in the back, and our job would not be easy!"
Du Weiguo sneered:
"Haha, we can't investigate this clue. We are immigrants to begin with. If we investigate, wouldn't it cause public outrage?
The work after that will definitely be difficult, like a blind man, and besides, we don’t have that much time to waste!”
Lei Qianjun frowned and asked in a deep voice: "Boss, what is the specific direction of our work tomorrow?"
Du Weiguo took a deep breath of cigarette, then slowly exhaled the smoke and shook his head gently:
"Looking at Tang Wen's attitude today, I'm afraid there's a lot of resistance when we want to investigate the Materials Bureau. Without the cooperation of the local public security, we simply can't carry out specific work.
If we investigate the victim's social relationships in detail and implement the investigation clues one by one, it will be a waste of time. We are neither good at it nor can we afford it!"
Lei Qianjun frowned and nodded. Du Weiguo turned his attention to Hanwen and asked softly:
"Hanwen, look at this from your professional perspective. Are there any clues to solve this case?"
Hanwen's eyes were very gloomy at the moment. He lowered his head and pondered for a while, then shook his head gently:
"Head, apart from checking the list of recent deaths and endangered people in Jinmen City, there is currently no other good way."
Du Weiguo took a long breath, put out the cigarette butt, looked out the window at the dark night, and said in a distant voice:
"It's already late at night. You all should go and have a rest. There will be a way for the car to reach the mountain. We'll talk about it when we wake up tomorrow."
Early the next morning, fog actually formed in Jinmen City. The heavy fog shrouded this ancient city like a city in the sky.
Just like the current case, it is wrapped in layers of objective and man-made factors, like a huge fog.
Kong Nan came over early in the morning. She arranged a sumptuous breakfast for Du Weiguo and his party. After breakfast.
Du Weiguo regrouped and found Tang Wen, who was taking a nap and in a very exhausted state.
Obviously, Tang Wen stayed up late again last night. The dark circles seemed to be tattooed under his eyes. He looked very haggard and half-dead.
Seeing Du Weiguo, he shook his neck vigorously, and after lighting a cigarette, his voice became hoarse:
"Du Chu, now that the truck driver's clue has been cut off, what are your next thoughts?"
This question was almost exactly the same as Lei Qianjun's question last night. Du Weiguo couldn't help but rub his stubbled chin. He wanted to laugh.
It's okay for Lei Qianjun to ask this question, but not for Tang Wen. He is a local case handler!
Du Weiguo smiled and joked:
"Tang Chu, I'm confused by your question. I'm not a local, nor am I a god!
I only arrived at Jinmen City yesterday afternoon, and the information I have is very limited. I should be the one to ask you this, right?"
Tang Wen has a relatively serious character. He is currently very worried and in the mood to argue with Du Weiguo. He scratched his extremely greasy hair and said in a slightly irritable tone:
"Today we will focus on investigating the social relations of Li Zhe, the driver of the oil truck. At the same time, we will continue to investigate the people who visited the crime scene to see if there are any other effective clues."
After Du Weiguo heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly and his tone was full of joking:
"Tang Chu, haven't you forgotten a very important clue?"
Tang Wen raised his head and glanced at Du Weiguo. He naturally understood what Du Weiguo meant, and he did not avoid the question:
"Du Chu, when we investigate Li Zhe's social relations, we will naturally also go to the Materials Bureau to investigate. This is a murder case."
What a way to dodge the important and ignore the important! However, Du Weiguo did not continue to dwell on this issue. He smiled:
"Tang Chu, do you think this is okay? We are divided into two groups today. I will take people to the Materials Bureau to investigate Li Zhe's social relations, and you will continue to be responsible for the on-site investigation and visits."
Tang Wen's eyes flashed, and he immediately showed a look of gratitude. He knew in his heart that Du Weiguo had taken the initiative to take over the stressful part of the work, which was a disguised form of carrying the thunder for him.
But when I think about it, I feel relieved. He is from Sijiu City and doesn't care about offending people in Jinmen City. The case is over.
Naturally, they retired after their achievements, patted their butts and left. As for the heel, Du Weiguo is 23 years old and the dignified director of the Operations Division of the Special Service Division. Is it possible that he is in vain?
At 9 o'clock in the morning, when the dense fog in Jinmen City still hadn't dissipated, Du Weiguo and his party arrived at the Tianjin City Materials Bureau, directly omitting all pleasantries.
Moreover, Du Weiguo did not make any big move today and did not disturb the work of the leaders. He only found the person in charge of the transport fleet, Director Wu Rong of the Logistics Office.
Wu Rong is a lesbian, not yet 30 years old, very beautiful and very elegant, with a unique charm in her every move.
At such a young age, Wu Rong became a logistics director and a cadre at the department level. She was considered an extremely rare young success.
In her office, she received Du Weiguo and his party very warmly. She had already heard about Li Zhe's poisoning after going to work today.
As the direct leader of Li Zhe's unit, she naturally had to cooperate with the investigation. As for why, the person responsible for understanding the situation would be a director of the Fourth Nine City.
Although she was very surprised by this, she was so smart that she didn't ask any more questions to be able to sit in this position at such a young age.
