I immediately said to Director Lu: "Come to my office first."
After putting down the phone, I looked at Tong Yao in surprise and asked her, "You have expected this a long time ago, right?"
She nodded, "So, I think it is more likely that your local police were involved in this matter. We must take action immediately. One is the security guard on duty in the hotel control room that day, and the other is your city's public security guard."
The plainclothes man on duty at the bureau must take control immediately. Don't waste any more time. In addition, the Japanese must call his secretary immediately and tell her that there is an emergency in the company and ask her to come back to work immediately."
I hesitated and said, "Will this alert the criminals?"
She said: "There is no other way. Or like this...Does the secretary have a mobile phone? Then we will use some technical means. Let Tanaka call her here, and then we will use her mobile phone signal.
Find where she is now. It will be easier to arrest her this way."
I nodded, "That's it. Then, Tong Yao, we'll go to the Municipal Public Security Bureau right away."
After I left the office, I called Director Lu and told him Tong Yao's idea. He also agreed with this approach, "I'll go back and let them handle it right away."
I said: "Pay attention to confidentiality and try to reduce the matter to the smallest scope."
Tong Yao was calling Li Qian, "Li Qian, go immediately and find the surveillance video data in the elevator and outside the hotel door on the day of the hotel incident, and send it to the Public Security Bureau immediately. By the way, bring the Japanese with you.
.”
This is a good idea. This not only ensures Tanaka's safety, but also allows those people to be seen from other surveillance cameras that day. The key to the problem is that Tanaka knows them.
It is no longer possible to maintain complete confidentiality, and things have become complicated, so we can only take such measures. The faster we go, the less likely it is that the suspect will be alerted.
However, I still reported to Secretary Chen. This matter is of great concern, and he also gave us such instructions.
After listening to my report, Secretary Chen said: "Let's do it this way. It must be done quickly."
I agreed repeatedly. After I put down the phone, I heard Tong Yao laughing and saying: "Sometimes I really can't understand. The leader seems to be a know-it-all. Even the investigation of the case must be reported to him. He can make suggestions for the investigation of the case.
What kind of useful opinions are there? Is this also a Chinese characteristic?"
I asked her with a wry smile: "Didn't your leaders ask when you were handling cases before?"
She said: "Are you asking? And what you said is nonsense. That's why I think it's funny."
I said: "This is indeed a Chinese characteristic, because the party leads everything. This is part of politics. Tong Yao, you think I am trivial when I say some things. In fact, you should understand that political issues have been integrated into our daily lives.
, let alone our work.”
She was silent for a moment and then said: "Feng Xiao, I don't want to say anything more, but I will prove it to you in the future, and I will prove to you that I am right."
I said: "You have to prove that I don't object, but I don't want you to pay a high price."
She said: "Even if I pay the price, it is worth it, but I am not trying to prove it to you. I said, I am responsible for the sacrifice of my comrades."
I didn't say anything anymore because I found it really difficult to convince her.
After arriving at the Municipal Public Security Bureau, Director Lu told us that the security guards on duty in the control room that day had been found, and he had sent reliable people to control them. The plainclothes man on duty that day had also been controlled.
.
I am very satisfied with his efficiency. Of course, I also understand that the reliable person he said is at least something he can trust. I should completely believe in his vision. After all, this person has worked in the municipal government office for so long and knows how to judge people.
You should still have some perspective.
"I have already arranged the technical means, and we will start when Tanaka arrives." Director Lu said to me again.
I said, "Let's watch the video first. I'm thinking that if this case has nothing to do with those security guards and the police officers on duty that day, it would be too unfair to them. Let's rule them out first."
Tong Yao said: "It's nothing. As a police officer, we have to endure sacrifices at any time or being misunderstood. As a police officer, what is such an grievance?"
I couldn't help but smile bitterly: I had talked to her so much in my office before, but in the end I didn't say anything at all. From this, it seems that it is really difficult to change a person's concept.
Director Lu also agreed with her point of view, "Mayor Feng, I think Officer Tong is right. If we really made them feel wronged, I would personally go and apologize to them afterwards. Now we must consider how to help solve the case."
.Tanaka’s female secretary is a key figure, we must catch her as soon as possible. And maybe she is with the main criminal."
Since they have said this, I can only say no more. After all, they are in this business.
Tanaka arrived soon, and I first apologized to him, "Mr. Tanaka, I'm sorry, the situation has changed, so we have to change the steps and methods of solving the case."
He nodded, "I have heard what Officer Li said. I am willing to cooperate with your work. But..."
I understood what he meant, "Mr. Tanaka, don't have any worries. You should believe me, right?"
He bowed to me and said, "Thank you." Then he turned to Director Lu and said, "Mr. Director, please make arrangements."
Director Lu said to me: "Mayor Feng, please sit in my office. I will report to you as soon as the matter is resolved."
Tong Yao and Director Lu left with Tian Zhong. Sitting in Director Lu’s office, I suddenly felt a little bored. In fact, my boredom came from the fact that I had too much work on my hands, but it was impossible to do it at the moment.
Other things. And I have also given instructions to my secretary and driver not to tell anyone else my current whereabouts.
I went to the bookshelf in this office, looked at the books on the shelf, and found a set of "Sherlock Holmes" in it. I immediately took out a copy, and then sat on the sofa and started reading.
At the beginning, I found it a little difficult to read because the early part of the story was a bit obscure. In fact, I had read this book before, but it was many years ago, and I had already forgotten the plot.
I couldn't concentrate, and the words in front of me were blurry. I knew this was because I couldn't calm down, because I was always thinking about the case. I said to myself: Don't think about it, I don't even think about it.
Use it. Won’t you know it in a while?
This kind of self-psychological comfort is still useful. Slowly I calmed down and slowly got into the plot of the book.
Most of the stories in this book are actually relatively short, but I found that each story can give people a lot of gains after reading it: So that’s it. It seems that the details of the case are indeed very helpful for reasoning.
Just reading one article after another like this, I immediately forgot the time and where I was.
In fact, this is where the joy of reading lies.
"Haha! I didn't expect you to like reading books like this." Suddenly, I heard Tong Yao's voice ringing in my ears.
I suddenly returned from the world in the book to reality. I quickly put down the book and asked her: "How is it? Is there any good news?"
She replied: "Tanaka's secretary is in Shangjiang City. You can't think of it, right?"
I was very surprised, "Are they really testing?"
Tong Yao nodded and said: "That should be the case. People's desires are endless. For the sake of desire, they will take such desperate risks. After all, there are still three million, which is an astronomical number for ordinary people."
I nodded, "People have been arranged to catch her now, right?"
She shook her head: "Not yet. When Tanaka called her, she said she still had something to do at home and she would have to get here tomorrow. Haha! Even I almost believed this woman when she lied. Now Director Lu is here
Look at the surveillance video, and if the police officers in it are really from Shangjiang City or the ones we suspect, then we will consider the next step."
I nodded, "Yes, this is best."
She said: "Wait a minute, there will be news soon. If my guess is correct, one of the people we suspect should be a suspect."
I suddenly remembered something, "Why not let Tanaka identify the person directly?"
She shook her head and said: "You don't have that kind of equipment here. You should have that kind of glass wall, that is, the people inside can't see outside, but the outside can see the people inside. Your equipment here is too poor, even such a minimum
The conditions are not met. Under such conditions, it is impossible for people to identify people, right? What if those people are not criminals? In this case, the Japanese will not be willing?"
I couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that the next step is for us to increase investment in this area."
She glanced at me and said, "I heard that you are still in charge of this area. Why have such things been done so long ago?"
I smiled bitterly and shook my head: "I do have a responsibility, but the key point is that we are too poor. Otherwise, Director Lu and others would have given me a report long ago. He knows that there is no money for making a report. So, economic development is
Hard truth."
She pursed her lips at me and said, "You're talking in official terms again. How much will it cost? For hundreds of thousands of dollars, you officials can just eat and drink less."
I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart: Her problem came out again. I smiled and said: "Tong Yao, eating and drinking are also necessary. Reception work is very important in our country's official activities. Sometimes it can achieve unexpected effects. For example, you
Now that I'm here, I have to treat you to dinner, right? I can treat you privately, but people at work will think I'm too pretentious. Tong Yao, you shouldn't be living in a vacuum, right? This is also human nature. We
This country has been like this for thousands of years, and we all pay attention to the etiquette of treating guests to dinner. This is also part of Chinese culture..."
She immediately interrupted me, "Okay. I said it wrong. Isn't it okay? Here you go again." Then she went to look at the book I just put down on the table, "It turns out that you learned by reading books like this."
Logical reasoning? I'm curious, how can such a book help your ability in that area? "
I shook my head and said: "I haven't read this book in many years... Tong Yao, why do you think this kind of book is useless? I think it's pretty good? I just read part of it and I feel it's quite rewarding.
big."
She said: "If you think about it carefully, if you encountered such a case, would you reason like that? Would you notice such details? A novel is a novel, and it is a writing technique of the author. That is, modern
Set up a conclusion, and then consider what conditions are needed to get that conclusion, so when writing, I put those conditions into the previous plot. This is what people often call inference. In fact, real police will not use this.
The novel is used as a teaching material. It’s good for entertainment.”
I suddenly realized, "So that's it. Tell me, why can't I see any loopholes?" (To be continued)
