In the special case team office, the red phone on Bai Jingyu's desk rang.
This kind of red phone is also called the "red phone". It is a confidential phone that can only be used by senior leaders. It is very mysterious. In China, it refers to the dedicated contact phone number of leaders above the provincial, military and military levels, and is independent of the telecommunications system.
, and after encryption, the communication network is strictly isolated from the civilian network.
The call on Bai Jingyu's desk was made by at least someone at the deputy ministerial level or above. When the call was answered, Bai Jingyu, who had always been well-mannered, actually lost his temper.
Bai Jingyu shouted: "What do you think our special case team is?"
When the other party said something, Bai Jingyu said: "No, absolutely not."
Bai Jingyu said: "Hualong is a person, not something! You can borrow it if you want."
The other party was reluctant, so Bai Jingyu listened carefully, then laughed and cursed and hung up the phone.
Bai Jingyu called Hua Long to the office and said, "The military has named you and wants to borrow you to help solve a case."
Hua Long said: "The military has no one left, right? It's asking for help from us."
Bai Jingyu said: "I have already agreed, I hope you will live up to your expectations."
Hualong said: "This must be a shocking case, and I am under a lot of pressure."
Bai Jingyu said: "This is a theft case."
Hua Long said: "Why do you want me to do this petty theft?"
Bai Jingyu said: "Comrade Hualong, please be more serious. This case is not trivial. It involves national security and interests. They will transfer the files over in a while and then escort you to the crime scene. You must keep the files on the road. If they are lost or leaked,
, you must bear legal responsibility. The file is classified as top secret. Except for case handling needs, only leaders at the deputy department level or above of the public security department have the authority."
Hua Long said: "After all that, it is still a case of theft."
Fengyuan City, Izumo Mountain.
A certain city, the main industrial zone in the area. A military vehicle delivered the painting dragon to the city's Public Security Bureau. After the handover of the case, the heads of various departments of the Public Security Bureau sat in the conference room and whispered, confused, because the case was confidential.
status, they didn't know that a major case that shocked Zhongnanhai had occurred in this city. Hua Long and Secretary Zhao, the head of the Public Security Bureau, walked into the conference room. Hua Long was carrying a password box, and a pair of handcuffs cuffed the box and Hua Long's wrists together.
, Hualong sat on the rostrum, opened the handcuffs, and took out the case files from the box.
Secretary Zhao presided over the meeting, first introduced the brilliant achievements of the special case team, and then invited Hualong to speak and talk about the case.
Hualong said: "Something serious has happened. You all have turned off your cell phones. No one is allowed to take photos or videos. The case needs to be kept secret. Even family members cannot tell."
The captain of the national security brigade said: "What's the big deal? Why didn't I know? Is it a serial murder case?"
The captain of the criminal police team sitting next to him said: "We haven't had any major cases here recently."
Hualong said: "There was a theft."
The security brigade captain said: "Thefts happen every day, but do we take them so seriously?"
Hualong said: "The vault of the People's Bank of this city has been stolen."
The treasury was stolen and the situation was serious. This was also the first time a treasury was stolen in the city.
In the case, everyone speculated that the amount stolen must be very huge.
Hua Long said: "Not a penny of the money in the treasury was lost, and the gold hoarded was not less, but one thing was lost."
Hua Long took out a photo from the case file and held it up for everyone to see. The photo showed a rectangular and delicate-looking steel plate, about the size of a hundred yuan.
The heads of various departments in the Public Security Bureau were well-informed, but no one could tell exactly what it was.
Hualong said: "This thing can make you the richest man in China, or even the richest man in the world. You can buy a country or destroy a country."
What was stolen from the vault was the 1999 version of the fifth set of hundred-yuan banknote templates!
The 1999 version of the red hundred-yuan banknote has gradually been replaced by the 2005 version and the 2015 version, but it is still in circulation on the market. A RMB goes through more than ten processes from hand-carved template to printing and leaving the factory. The banknote template reflects the original version of the world's banknotes.
The famous engraving and gravure technology in the field of engraving is also the most critical anti-counterfeiting technology.
This template is about to retire from the stage of history, and the armed police force is responsible for transporting the template from the banknote printing company to the central bank for storage. They formulated an escort plan, and because the distance was not far, they chose road transportation.
The armed police vehicle took the highway and passed through Fengyuan City. Due to the weather, the vehicles ahead kept rear-ending and the highway was closed. They were forced to stay in Fengyuan City for one night. At the time of the incident, the template was temporarily stored in a safe in the vault of the People's Bank of Fengyuan City.
This vault is located on the second underground floor of the bank. In order to ensure safety, the vault contains several strict security systems.
1. The first one is a simple iron gate. After entering, the passage leading to the vault is sloping downwards without stairs. This is to facilitate the staff to transport cash on carts. This area is a handover area and has a cash sorting room.
and the security duty room. People come and go here during the day. Bags and boxes filled with money are transported to the sorting room on carts. All kinds of expensive sorting and binding equipment are here. At night, cash is put into the warehouse, and two people holding shotguns
Security guards with guns guard the warehouse in the duty room.
Second, the outer door of the vault is made of fine steel. To open it, the bank leader in charge of the vault must first press his fingerprint, and then two warehouse managers hold different keys to open the vault door at the same time. This door only needs to be opened after working hours.
, the "mobile alarm system" will be activated. Once someone destroys or opens the door, an alarm will pop up on the remote monitoring computer: Vault door moving alarm! Vault door moving alarm! Vault door moving alarm!
Third, after entering the vault, there is an underground passage, also known as the buffer area, which is monitored 24 hours a day. This area is equipped with a shockproof, fireproof and waterproof security system. The walls, floors and ceilings are made of reinforced concrete with embedded steel plates.
.
Fourth, the inner door of the vault is similar to the one in the movie. It is a huge circular door with a rotating code dial on the door, engraved with 100 numbers from 0 to 99. To open the door, the dial must be turned four times.
There are a total of 100 million possible combinations of correct numbers, and the door can be opened only if the password is correct.
Fifth, after entering the vault, there are rows of large safes. Each safe has an independent password and key, and is equipped with a vibration sensor. If someone tries to damage the safe in any way, such as using an electric drill or prying,
The vibration sensor will immediately send an alarm to the monitoring center.
Sixth, the vault is equipped with infrared alarm systems and high-definition surveillance systems, as well as an air exchange system.
The vault is impregnable, and the banknote templates stored here are absolutely foolproof.
However, the next day, the template disappeared.
The cleverness of the theft was far beyond imagination. After the armed police inspected the scene, they found that the thief had hardly used violence during the crime, and there were no signs of damage to the door. It was opened according to normal procedures. During the theft
During the entire process of committing the crime, the alarms and surveillance systems inside and outside the vault did not respond at all.
This is simply a perfect crime.
In recent years, almost all the vault theft cases in domestic banks are thefts committed by insiders.
The security guard of a bank in Heilongjiang obtained the password of the vault through snooping, and found an accomplice on the Internet whose online name was "The Man Who Does Big Things." The two of them cooperated inside and outside and stole three million in cash from the vault.
A bank cadre in Guangxi was demoted to an ordinary employee. He was dissatisfied and took advantage of his job to steal the bank's vault. Out of sympathy, he left 200,000 yuan to his colleagues. He was caught before he could escape.
In a bank in Hebei, two warehouse managers conspired to steal the vault, involving a total amount of 50 million yuan. What is ironic is that most of the money was used to buy lottery tickets. They once bet tens of millions of yuan in cash in one day. This is also the case for the Chinese people.
In the largest treasury theft since the founding of the Republic, the president and two vice presidents were removed from office, and the two principal culprits were executed.
The banknote template was stolen, and it was initially suspected to be theft. However, bank personnel were investigated one by one and no suspicious person was found.
The bank only temporarily provided the vault as a storage place at the request of its superiors, and the theft made the bank feel aggrieved.
The armed police responsible for escorting were all active-duty soldiers. According to regulations, if active-duty soldiers were suspected of committing crimes, the police had no right to investigate. The military security department was responsible for the investigation work. The investigation lasted for a month, but returned without success. At that time, the armed police responsible for escorting were also ruled out as suspects of the crime.
.
The case was reported to the top management at all levels, and the leader's instructions were very simple. On the case file, he expressed his anger with a simple sentence and three exclamation points: Whoever loses it is responsible for finding it!!!
The military security department remembered a person - Hua Long.
Hua Long is an armed police instructor, has a soldier's status, and is a member of the Special Case Team of the Ministry of Public Security. It is most appropriate for him to be responsible for solving this case.
Hualong said: "Not only does the military and police attach great importance to this case, but also the hidden front secret service secretly intervenes in the investigation. Once this banknote template falls into the hands of foreign criminals, what will be the consequences?"
Secretary Zhao said: "The counterfeit banknotes they created will become real banknotes, and the entire country's financial system will be affected."
The captain of the criminal police brigade said: "If the thieves designed a seamless plan, how did they do it? You know, the highway closure and the temporary storage of the templates in the vault were all accidental."
Hua Long said: "The military investigated for a month and believed that this was done by your local thieves. This group of thieves was not one person, but a group. Their original intention was to steal the treasury and they stole the banknote template by mistake.
Gone."
The security brigade captain said: "We have a lot of thieves here, but those who dare to steal the vault are considered big thieves."
Hua Long said: "Whether it is a big thief or a thief, he will definitely be caught. I also have a very important task here this time, which is to select a police officer from your station to join our special case team."
