Returned to the Information Section from the foreign trade company.
Several people gathered together to discuss the information they had obtained so far.
The investigation of both the dock warehouse and the phone number has been suspended for now.
On the one hand, those who secretly sell firearms behind the scenes are cautious, but on the other hand, they are protected by the Ordnance Industry Administration.
As a result, investigations are always slow.
Long Hao said with a hint of anger: "At this point in the investigation, we still can't pinpoint which arsenal it is. If we delay it any longer, I'm afraid all the clues will be destroyed, and we won't be able to convict him by then."
evidence!
In the early years, when you arrested red party members, but now when you arrest Japanese spies, you may not need to provide evidence.
But when it comes to internal investigations, behind it is the Ordnance Industry Administration, with the Military Department above.
Who would admit it without evidence?
Shangfeng also needs evidence before he can speak.
If it is delayed any longer, all the evidence will be destroyed, and it will become even more troublesome.
Song Shutang looked at the information that Long Hao came back from the Shancheng Rubber Factory and said: "The arrival time of the cargo ship at the dock on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year was affected. It was said that something was delayed on the way. This situation should be unexpected, but the person who made the transaction knew the choice.
Warehouse No. 9, why?”
Zhu Yue also immediately said: "According to the information provided by the Red Party, the transaction time and location were finalized in the afternoon and evening. It can be seen that this person also made such a decision after learning about the situation of the cargo ship at Shancheng Rubber Factory."
"But there is no radio on the ship, so even if something goes wrong, there is no way to contact Shancheng immediately. To put it bluntly, Shancheng Rubber Factory only knows about these things after the ship arrives at the dock."
"Check why the cargo ship was delayed." Zhu Yue said immediately.
This may be a very critical point.
Long Hao had been to the Shancheng Rubber Factory, so he immediately asked for orders and said: "I'll go."
"You take two people with you."
"Yes, team leader."
Long Hao left as soon as he said so.
After he left, Zhu Yue continued: "As for the issue of telephone stringing, I have some ideas."
Song Shutang happened to have an idea too.
Zhu Yue knew what he meant by looking at his eyes, and said with a smile: "We don't think of going together."
"you say."
"Why aren't serial calls afraid of someone finding the location through the phone line? If the location is within the foreign bank, then there is no need to worry." Zhu Yue said.
What Zhu Yue thought was the same as what Song Shutang had just thought.
The purpose of stringing telephone calls to foreign companies is to use the identity of foreigners to confuse and protect them.
Just put the phone directly inside the bank.
Even if someone follows the strung telephone lines to find the location of the phone, they will mistakenly think that someone from a foreign company is behind the operation, and will think that it is transnational arms smuggling instead of the local arsenal in the mountain city.
It's an extra layer of protection.
The foreign banks are located on the first or fifth floors.
The first and second floors are the offices of foreign companies, but the upper three floors are apartments.
This building is owned by a local consortium, and the foreign company is leasing it.
However, the shortage of housing in mountainous cities is a problem that is difficult to solve nowadays. Therefore, in order to facilitate the accommodation, members of foreign companies rented out all the three-story apartments upstairs for their employees to live in.
But the three floors above were also rented here before.
So now we are living together.
There are both employees of foreign companies and outsiders.
The phone is hidden upstairs so it's really unnoticeable.
"Investigating the information about the residents upstairs." Zhu Yue felt that since the two of them had the same idea, they shouldn't waste time and investigate as soon as possible.
Take action immediately.
Through investigation, we learned that there are currently 46 rooms available for living upstairs in the foreign bank.
Employees of foreign banks accounted for 24 households.
There are twenty-two households with external personnel.
Among the twenty-two households, only one has a telephone, and the rest do not.
Then this household can be excluded for now.
The rest is investigated.
Now it is no longer possible to talk about the strategy of building a plank road in secret to assassinate Chencang, after all, the other party is already destroying the evidence.
Therefore, all the remaining 21 households need to enter the house for investigation, and the residents need to be interviewed face-to-face.
After such detailed investigation.
We learned from some residents that they occasionally heard the phone ringing at night. Through multiple verification checks, they identified a house. The Intelligence Department entered and searched and found that the room had been cleaned and no one had come for many days.
And there was no phone or anything like that found in the room.
However, it can still be seen through some clues that telephone lines have been fixed on the wall before, leaving some light traces.
It seems to be this household.
The telephone exchange did not install telephones here.
But there is a telephone here, which is nothing more than a serial telephone.
However, when the room is empty, the person will not come back, so we can only start to investigate some information about this person through the neighbors.
However, everyone in the apartment often hides in their rooms and does not interact with the neighbors at all. In addition, there are mostly foreigners upstairs, so there is no contact.
As a result, not much information can be provided.
Through gathering information, we learned that he was a man, about thirty years old, with a medium height and a medium build.
I have never seen him wearing a hat when entering and exiting an apartment.
However, there was one child who was not very tall, so when he looked from the bottom up, he saw his face.
From the information provided by the children, we know that the beard is longer, not because it is not trimmed, but because it is a beard.
And he has a beard.
Not wearing glasses.
The child cannot provide more information.
When asked if the child could recognize the photo, the child was more embarrassed. It can be seen that the beard is the only memory feature.
Then contact the person in charge of the apartment and ask him to provide information about the people renting here.
The person in charge said that the house was rented out through other people, that is, middlemen, and that he himself was very busy and had no time to look at the apartment.
I found the intermediary and asked about the situation. He said that the house was rented to a man, but he did not provide documents and backup information as required because the other party gave him more money.
It has exceeded the normal rental price of the room.
As a middleman, he could profit from this part of the money, so he did not follow the requirements.
This situation is actually not uncommon.
Because there are many refugees pouring into the mountain town.
They are said to be refugees, but there are many wealthy people among them.
When they first arrive in the mountain city, they do not have identification documents. Under normal circumstances, they have to accept the unified management of the mountain city government and arrange for them to be resettled in the suburbs or planned places outside the city.
But the conditions are naturally not as good as those in urban areas.
So many people don't want to go there. If they have money, they can rent a house in the city.
Identity documents can also be applied for in the future.
The middleman thinks that people who rent houses may be like this, so they are willing to rent at a high price. Of course, he will not push out the business that comes to his door.
The middleman cannot provide more information than the child.
Zhu Yue was so angry that he asked members of the Intelligence Section to send him to the police station. If he did not follow the rules and regulations, he would be locked up for a period of time.
As for the person in charge of the apartment, although he does not know the person, he is behind it after all, and is a consortium, and is not directly involved in this matter, so nothing can be done about it.
"At least there is information about facial features, which is helpful for the investigation." Zhu Yue felt that this investigation was still fruitful.
"Go back and see if Long Hao has gained anything." Song Shutang also felt that at least he had grasped some key clues. If Long Hao also gained something here, it would be of great help to the investigation.
Rushing back to the information, Kelong Hao had already returned.
They took too long to screen the apartment residents.
"What are the results of the investigation?" Zhu Yue asked Long Hao directly.
"The Shancheng Rubber Factory's cargo ship collided with the Minsheng Company's passenger ship 'Minquan' on the way, which caused the delay."
"Collision?"
"The weather was bad that day and there was heavy fog on the river. By the time I saw the ship, I had already avoided it. Fortunately, it was only a scratch on the side and did not cause much damage."
"Then why did it take so long?"
"All the cargo on the Shancheng Rubber Factory cargo ship collapsed due to the collision, so the ship had to be stopped for rearrangement, which cost a lot of time."
After hearing what Long Hao said, Zhu Yue said: "In other words, after the collision, the cargo ship of Shancheng Rubber Factory was unable to continue sailing, but the passenger ship 'Minquan' of Minsheng Company was not greatly affected and returned to Shancheng on time.
"
"In other words, that person might have been on the 'Minquan' at that time." Song Shutang understood what Zhu Yue meant.
"Someone on board the 'Minquan' was injured, so we rushed back to the hospital for treatment." Long Hao's statement also confirmed Zhu Yue's guess.
But are the people on the Civil Rights and the people in the apartment the same person?
Such speculation emerged in the minds of the two of them, and Zhu Yue said: "Not many people should know that the private sale of arms is confidential. The people on the Civil Rights and the people in the apartment should be the same person."
The people in the apartment may not be there every day.
After all, the phone doesn't ring all the time.
When he is away, you only need to take off the phone receiver or unplug the phone line, and the ringing will not stop for a long time.
It makes sense to deduce that he went to another place.
If it's the same person, it's much easier to investigate.
