Liu and Zhang were both stunned, looking at Ning Chen in astonishment.
Ning Chen didn't answer, and after a few seconds he spoke: "Officer Zhang, you just said that you need to take photos and submit the information when issuing a ticket, right?"
Officer Zhang nodded: "Yes."
She felt very strange. Isn't this a normal procedure? Why are you so surprised?
Ning Chen asked again: "How long will these photos be stored? Will they be stored longer than the videos?"
At this time, Liu and Zhang also had some reactions.
Officer Liu's expression was serious, and before Officer Zhang could speak, he said: "That's right, the photos don't take up a lot of storage space. Sometimes we even print them out and organize them into files for storage, so they don't need to be cleaned frequently."
Although he was from the criminal police department, he also knew about these things. He stared at Ning Chen and asked: "You mean, the video is gone, but we can check the illegal photos?"
"That's right." Ning Chen nodded, "There must be randomness in taking illegal photos, and sometimes passersby are also photographed. At least we can find the ones from half a year ago."
"My idea is to take bus No. 13 as a line and check all the illegal photos on the route of this bus. Maybe there are three fat people taken."
Officer Zhang's eyes lit up and he shouted, "Why didn't I think of that?"
At this time, no one paid attention to this. Ning Chen said: "Thank you for your hard work today. After dinner, we will go to the traffic police brigade."
Officer Liu immediately nodded: "I'm done eating." After saying that, he looked at Officer Zhang, and Officer Zhang immediately said he was done eating.
Ning Chen smiled gratefully at the two of them and set off immediately.
...
They came to the traffic police brigade, explained their purpose of visit, and received permission from the superior department. The three of them entered the archives room.
The people here knew Officer Zhang. A young man with an attentive smile on his face said: "The violation records for August last year are all here, and they can also be checked on the computer. If you want to check a specific vehicle, just enter the license plate number.
turn up."
"Thank you." Officer Zhang thanked him and looked at Ning Chen.
Ning Chen said: "In this way, we will be separated and each will be responsible for the violation records for a certain period of time. The license plate number is useless, so look for photos."
Liu and Zhang agreed and did not ask the traffic policeman to help because they did not have time to explain too much, not to mention that the matter needed to be kept as confidential as possible.
For a while, the three of them began to search, carefully checking every violation record and every photo, carefully identifying the person in the photo, even if it was just a passerby, or a vague shadow, as long as they were with San Pang or Gu Haowen
If it’s similar, you can’t let it go.
As for the "classmate's father", the face puzzle itself is not accurate, so there is no need to compare it at this time.
This is like finding a needle in a haystack, a time-consuming task that depends on luck.
Fortunately, they were lucky.
Two hours later, Officer Zhang suddenly pointed to a photo and said to Ning Chen: "Ning Chen, come and see if this is the person we are looking for?"
Ning Chen took a closer look and saw that the subject of the photo was a car, but a blurry face could be seen through the windshield of the car.
It was Gu Haowen.
"It's him, Gu Haowen."
Although the face was blurry, Ning Chen could still recognize that it was Gu Haowen.
Liu and Zhang also became excited.
Although the third fat man was not found, finding Gu Haowen was still a reward. Ning Chen immediately said: "Officer Zhang, help me check this car. I want to know the driving trajectory of this car."
Officer Zhang had been a traffic policeman, and he was very skilled in operating on the computer, and soon got the result: "Found it. On August 10, these two cars appeared on Xijiao Road and Huiyuan Road, and committed three violations in total.
Being photographed.”
"August 10th." Ning Chen was already roughly sure that the third fat man was kidnapped by Gu Haowen.
But there are still problems.
Ning Chen asked again: "Did this car appear elsewhere that day?"
Officer Zhang shook his head and said he couldn't find it.
Ning Chen frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Check the license plate and previous violation records."
After a while, I actually found something.
This car has appeared twice before. The data shows that it is a lost vehicle. In addition to August 10 last year, it also had multiple violations in front of it. The tracks are spread over many places. The farthest violation from the city was in
Suburbs of North District.
"Northern District Suburbs, North District..." A flash of lightning flashed in Ning Chen's heart, and he vaguely captured something. He immediately called Lao Li.
...
Special Operations Branch.
Several people have returned.
In the conference room, Lao Li and others looked at Ning Chen.
"That's it..."
Ning Chen explained the process again, and finally said: "Now it is almost certain that the third fat man was kidnapped by Gu Haowen on August 10th. He may have knocked him unconscious and stuffed him in the back seat or in the trunk. I just don't know.
What happened later? Gu Haowen died, but San Pang survived, but it was probably related to that 'classmate's father'."
"In addition, the violation record of this car shows that it has been found in many places in the city, the farthest one being in the suburbs of North District."
Having said this, Ning Chen paused and then said: "Director Li, I found that we have always ignored the North District."
North District?
In an instant, the faces of Lao Li and others could not help but change slightly.
Indeed, they have always ignored the North District.
When multiple terrorist creatures attacked, there were terrorist creatures in the West District, East District, and South District, but not in the North District.
At that time, they thought it was because the northern region was mountainous and sparsely populated.
Xu You frowned and said: "I went to see Gu Xiong's wife today and got some results. She told me that more than half a year ago, that is, after we interrogated her, Gu Haowen visited her once. Then
Gu Haowen didn't say much, but he told her that he was safe and hiding in a place that the police would never think of."
"I suspect it's the North District."
After Gu Xiong died, Gu Haowen disappeared. The entire city was searching for him but was never found. If he was hiding in the mountains of the North District, everything would make sense.
It was just that at that time, they thought that Gu Haowen had Gu Xiong's property, had so much money in his hands, and was a young man, so he would definitely not be willing to hide in the mountains.
But Gu Haowen was with the people of Shishen Sect. He might not be willing to hide in the mountains, but he might not dare to go against the wishes of Shishen Sect.
"North District." Zhang Huaiyuan said thoughtfully, "Director, didn't you ask me to find out where the scary creatures come from? I never figured it out before, but now I think of a possibility. These scary creatures may be along the same route.
Came here via the Cangjiang Waterway."
"Only by walking through waterways can they appear quietly everywhere along the river."
Linjiang City is called "Linjiang" because a branch of the Cangjiang River runs through the entire city, and this branch of the Cangjiang River also flows through the North District Mountains.
If those terrifying creatures hide in the mountains of the North District and sneak in through the river, they can avoid most surveillance.
