Early the next morning, I, Nangong Fan, Hu Jiashu and Bailang Chai Min rushed to the provincial capital. After getting off the plane, we rushed to the Fanxingnao area according to the address on the document.
It is a township in the middle part of the Taihang Mountains. It is not too remote. There is a provincial road and a highway passing through the township. The villages in the township are basically relatively wealthy.
We went directly to Fan Xingnao Village. This village is next to the expressway and has the up and down intersections of the expressway. After getting off the expressway, we arrived at the entrance of the village. This is the village with the most convenient transportation we have ever visited to handle the case.
After we got here, we took out our identities as special incident investigators and went to see the police from the local police station. Their superiors also told them about our arrival here, so after the call was made, it was
The director of the local police station greeted us personally.
They also arranged accommodation for us at the police station and asked if we needed help from them.
We didn’t know much about the local situation, so it would be good to have a policeman to guide us, so I said, “It would be great if you could arrange for someone to introduce the case to us.”
The director said directly: "Then let me go. I have been following this theft case. I can recite what was missing from each house without looking at the information. This has always been a worry for me."
I also nodded.
The director's name is Luo Dachuan, and we call him Director Luo directly.
Sometimes when we speak too fast, we will shout "Luosuo Chang". Luo Dachuan is not angry about this, because many people in the institute like to shout "Luo Suo, Luo Suo", and if we shout it too much, it will become "Luo Suo".
"Long-winded", but everyone still respects him.
I also like Luo Dachuan's character very much. He is meticulous about his work, but he is very carefree when dealing with friends, and he basically doesn't antagonize others.
After getting to know Luo Dachuan, we first went to Fan Xingnao Village. More than ten households were robbed in this village. It was also the village with the most robberies nearby and was the hardest hit area.
Moreover, there are cameras in this village, but every time a crime occurs, the cameras are strangely broken and nothing can be captured.
As he spoke, Luo Dachuan took us to a house that lived on the roadside. Luo Dachuan said: "This family lost a whole roof of cobs last autumn, which are corn."
I said to Luo Dachuan: "I understand, Luo Suo, we also call corn cobs there."
Luo Dachuan continued: "This house is next to the roadside. You see there is a canteen across the street. It is also a chess and card room. People play mahjong until late every day. The toilet in the chess and card room is under this house. There are people there from time to time at night.
I came out to use the toilet, but even under such circumstances, the several thousand kilograms of sticks hanging on the roof were still stolen. Do you think it's strange or not? The strangest thing is that none of the nearby residents heard it."
There is information about this case, and I remember it clearly, but I don't find it strange. I even think that people can do this even if they are not ghosts.
This kind of thing also happened in our hometown. The corn drying on the roof of my house was stolen, but the thieves were later caught.
We did not enter this home, and then Luo Dachuan took us to a new house on the roadside. He said to me: "This is the home of a young couple who just got married this spring. Both of them work in the county."
, the house at home is not very liveable, but their parents still bought them new appliances and furniture. After they got married, they lived at home for more than a week before returning to the county town to go to work."
"The day after they left, the house was ransacked."
"The furniture and appliances have all been moved. Look at this house. It is next to a gas station. There are people on duty at the gas station at night. They got up in the middle of the night and refueled other cars many times. But even so, they didn't notice the gas station next to them.
Don’t you think it’s strange that the house was stolen and not even the suspicious vehicle was found?”
"By the way, there is a camera in this gas station, and there happens to be a camera that can shine in front of the door. But when we adjusted the surveillance the day after tomorrow, we found that the surveillance was completely dark, and nothing was captured all night."
When Luo Dachuan said this, I felt depressed for him.
Nangong Fancong asked from the side: "Where are the doors and windows? Have the doors and windows of the house been broken open?"
Luo Dachuan said: "The doors and windows are intact. It should have been burglarized by unlocking the door."
After speaking, Luo Dachuan added: "In short, those thieves are too arrogant."
These two places have been stolen for a long time, so we have not been able to find the scent of ghosts in these two places, so we have no clues yet.
Next, Luo Dachuan took him to a few more houses, but not many things were lost, not as exaggerated as the first two houses.
When the last house in Fan Xingnao Village was robbed, Luo Dachuan led us to a mountain to the west of the village.
Luo Dachuan said: "There was a chicken farm in the mountains. One day, more than a thousand eggs were lost, and not a single chicken was missing."
"There are two big wolf dogs raised in this chicken farm. On the day the eggs were stolen, the two big wolf dogs seemed to be frightened. They crawled on the ground and did not dare to get up. They kept making whining sounds begging for mercy. These dogs
The owner of the chicken farm thought that his precious wolf dog was sick and took him to the veterinarian. However, after leaving the chicken farm for a while, he found that the two dogs suddenly recovered. When he returned to the chicken farm, he had just packed up and prepared for delivery.
All the eggs are gone.”
"And when he left the chicken farm, he still left his father here. His father was cleaning the chicken coop and had no idea how the eggs were lost. They also found no trace of a car coming in."
"Because there were so many thefts, people from the county criminal investigation team also came. They found no fingerprints or other clues left by the suspects in many of the counties where the robberies were committed. This shows that this group of people are definitely professional, and they are very responsive.
The reconnaissance ability is extremely strong.”
I nodded and said, "Their anti-reconnaissance capabilities are very strong."
Next, Luo Dachuan took us to several nearby villages and visited all the houses that had been robbed in recent years. Unfortunately, none of them were stolen recently. The earliest one was three months ago, so there was no one left for us.
Any clues.
That night when we returned to the police station in Fan Xingnao, after dinner, Luo Dachuan and two young policemen came to us to discuss the case.
Ask us if we have any comments on the case today.
I said: "Not yet!"
Luo Dachuan said: "In the past two years, cases have been concentrated in our township, so I think the gang of thieves may be from several nearby townships. However, I also asked other townships to assist in the investigation, and no suspicious persons were found.
, I naturally also investigated our hometown and found nothing."
Next, Luo Dachuan told us a lot of his opinions, but none of them could help him catch the suspect.
After talking for a while, Luo Dachuan said: "Sometimes I wonder, do you think those thieves are not human beings?"
When Luo Dachuan said this, I was stunned. Is there any special discovery that he has not told us?
I asked Luo Dachuan why he said that.
He said: "I have been a policeman for many years. Although I have never handled any major cases, I have seen a lot of petty theft cases. I know the secrets inside very well, even if I am as savvy as I am.
Criminals will also leave clues, but those who committed crimes in our hometown in the past two years have left nothing at all. Even the people from the county criminal investigation team are helpless. It is really difficult for me to imagine who did it and what
People have such great abilities."
"So I thought those thieves might not be human. This is the only way that makes sense."
"Of course, this is all just my imagination. How can there be ghosts in this world, right?"
I smiled at Luo Dachuan and said, "Yes, how can there be ghosts in this world?"
Then we chatted for a while, and Luo Dachuan took two policemen to take a rest. There were not many dormitories in this police station, so Nangong Fan and Bai Lang Chai Min shared a dormitory, while Hu Jiashu and I shared a dormitory.
I got up early the next morning to do my morning homework. When I was about to finish, Luo Dachuan also got up. He saw me boxing in the yard and asked me, "Where are you practicing?"
I said: "Yes!"
Luo Dachuan smiled and said: "I heard that you are the elites transferred directly from the province. No wonder you can become the elites. Get up so early and look at the two in our institute. They are still sleeping soundly in bed.
"
I smiled and said nothing.
Luo Dachuan asked me: "How will we arrange today? Yesterday we learned about all the stolen households. Where should we start today?"
I smiled at Luo Dachuan and said, "Start with that chicken farm. There are two dogs there, right? Let's start with those two dogs."
Luo Dachuan said in surprise: "Start with those two big wolf dogs? How to check?"
I smiled and said: "The mountain people have their own tricks!" (To be continued)
