The next day, Xu Wen unexpectedly received a call from Zhou Zhongping, captain of the Nanshan District Criminal Police Brigade. Since the last time Xu Wen handed him the evidence that Wang Haijie, the deputy director of the Sanshan Township Police Station, was bending the law for personal gain, and asked about the situation at the scene of his parents' car accident, the two of them...
There was no contact again.
"Captain Zhou, why did you think of calling me?"
"Do you remember that we once talked about the Huangwang Highway landslide? Now that things have progressed, if you are free, can you please come over and let us have a good chat."
"Oh, is it an interrogation? I am currently on bail pending trial."
"No, no, I've heard about your story, but that's a matter for the Dongcheng Branch. I just asked you to come here to get some information, and your old acquaintance is also here."
"who is it?"
"Wang Hui from the exploration company."
"Oh, it seems he found something there. I'll be there soon."
Xu Wen knew that since Wang Hui had found Zhou Zhongping, he must have found clues in the stone he gave him. If this was the case, the police might intervene in the Qidaowan car accident later, which would be crucial to figuring out the cause of his parents' death.
It was of great benefit. Twenty minutes later, he was already sitting in Zhou Zhongping's office with Zhou Zhongping and Wang Hui.
When Wang Hui saw Xu Wen come in, he quickly stood up, held his hands and said excitedly:
"Mr. Xu, thank you so much. You not only saved me, but also saved our company. Our leader said that he will thank you properly another day."
"What do the test results say?" Xu Wen asked.
"Residues of emulsion explosives were found on the cylindrical inner wall of the stone."
"It seems like the landslide was really caused by humans?"
"Yes, someone must have used the drill hole we left behind, put explosives into it, detonated the mountain and caused a landslide. After getting the test results, our leader arranged for me to report the crime immediately. Otherwise, I will come to Captain Zhou immediately."
"Come on, come on, please sit down, you two. Let's sit down and talk slowly, and you can tell us the detailed process." Zhou Zhongping pulled the two of them to sit down on the sofa, and called two criminal investigation team members to come over and understand the situation together.
Xu Wen first talked about the process of discovering the stone, then Wang Hui talked about the exploration process, and finally showed the test report issued by the Zhongjiang City Physical Evidence Inspection Center.
After listening to their narratives, Zhou Zhongping looked at Xu Wen and asked:
"Xu Wen, are you sure you found the stone at the Huangwang Highway landslide?"
"Of course, if you don't believe it, we can go to the scene to look for it again."
"Manager Wang, are there any stones left at the site?" Zhou Zhongping asked Wang Hui again.
"There should be. Each of our boreholes is more than ten meters deep. Even if they only add explosives to one borehole, there should be dozens of such stones."
"Okay, since you two said so, we will all mobilize and go to the Huangwang Highway immediately!" Zhou Zhongping decisively gave the order to his two subordinates.
Xu Wen and Wang Hui got into the police car of the Criminal Police Team and came to the landslide site with more than a dozen police officers and technicians from the Criminal Police Team. The grass had grown taller, but the color of the soil still made it easy for them to distinguish the landslide area.
More than a dozen people lined up at the foot of the mountain, with a distance of 2-3 meters between each person, basically covering the entire 40-meter landslide section.
"Everyone, we should keep our eyes open, don't be in a hurry, search slowly, and never miss any suspicious places. Look for stones with smooth cylindrical inner holes, and also pay attention to whether there are detonators and emulsion after explosion at the scene.
Explosive fragments." Zhou Zhongping stood in the middle of the team and explained the precautions.
The search began. People took branches and sticks found from nearby trees and hillsides, fiddled with the gravel and soil under their feet, and moved up the hillside step by step. Soon reports came from the crowd.
"Captain, there is a piece of black plastic here, which I suspect was left after the detonator detonated."
"Captain, a stone with a semicircular hole was found here."
"Captain, there is also a stone here."
"Everyone took photos of all the physical evidence found on site and kept it carefully. We will sort out the evidence together when we return to the team later."
The three-hour on-site search was over. Later in the operation, Xu Wen and Wang Hui did not search the hillside again. Enough physical evidence was found at the scene. The hillside must have been man-made and caused a landslide.
Wang Hui handed Xu Wen a cigarette, took out a lighter and lit it for him, and asked flatteringly:
"Mr. Xu, why did you think of coming here to look for rocks in the first place?"
"It's hard to explain in one word. I just suspected that the time of the landslide coincided with another incident, so I came here to take a look and accidentally discovered the stone."
"What's the other thing?"
Xu Wen thought for a while and felt that there was nothing worth concealing, so he told Wang Hui about the Qidaowan car accident. After hearing this, Wang Hui felt that what Xu Wen said made sense, and kept nodding and praising Xu Wen's quick thinking.
Different from ordinary people. After the two chatted for a while, Tian Wanghui suddenly remembered something and said to Xu Wen:
"By the way, our company also did the exploration of the Yunxianshan project. Yesterday, their company's CEO called me and told us to be ready to leave a team of people to come out and explore the resort soon. It looks like
They may be finishing the demolition soon."
After hearing Wang Hui's words, Xu Wen simply agreed. He thought to himself that he hadn't heard from his third uncle about the signing recently. Could it be that they had reached an agreement with the Wang family? He would call and ask his third uncle when he had time later.
"Haha, what are you two talking about?" Zhou Zhongping was in a good mood after discovering a large amount of physical evidence. He looked at his colleagues who were closing the team and walked up to Xu Wen and the others and said.
"Team Zhou is indeed a professional criminal investigator, and he found so many evidences at once," Xu Wen said.
"What professional? If you hadn't found the evidence first, we wouldn't have thought about it at all." Zhou Zhongping waved his hand.
"Team Zhou, if explosive residue is detected again, can the Qidaowan car accident be re-investigated?"
"I will try my best to apply to the leader for this. I think your suspicion is very reasonable, but to convince the leader you need evidence. It is still difficult to tell whether these two incidents are coincidences or causal relationships. Besides, it is so rash.
There is also some pressure to overturn the traffic police case."
"Then at least the case of the explosion causing the landslide will be investigated, right?"
"That's of course. A case involving explosive blasting is a major one. It's hard to say whether my level will be sufficient by then."
"Will the city bureau intervene?"
"It's hard to say. We've been busy here recently. Lin Ji from the Yunxian Mountain Project Department hasn't been caught yet, and the arson case hasn't been closed yet. Hey, why do I think these recent things are related to you? From that Wang Haijie's
From everything from arson cases to this collapse plan, why are you involved in everything?"
"I always have to deal with you police. It seems I've been having bad luck lately." Xu Wen said jokingly.
