Chapter 44: Revenge (V)
Liang Xi explained: "We are not checking the vehicles following Piaomiao. Piaomiao is a civilian and does not have any anti-tracking or anti-detection capabilities. A locator is more useful than tracking. Since one of the members is a police officer, they must have anti-detection capabilities. I think the police must have considered the possibility that someone is following Piaomiao. After all, Piaomiao is a kidnapped person, so the criminal gang will not make such a low-level mistake."
Liang Xi said: "There are many ways and means to pursue Piao Miao, and tracking is the worst one. What we need to consider is whether there is anything that is beyond the expectations of the criminal gangs and the police."
Liu Zhen looked at Baker, and neither of them understood.
Liang Xi said excitedly: "Two masked men invaded my house, and I didn't call the police."
Liu Zhen: "And then?"
Liang Xi said: "The masked men must evacuate the villa village, and vehicles can be said to be the only means of transportation."
Baker asked: "Why do you say 'arguably'?"
Liang Xi: "There is also a helicopter. I think the possibility of a helicopter is not very high."
Liu Zhen said: "Then what?"
Liang Xi said: "The police entered Villa No. 11 at about 10:30 p.m., and the intruders left my villa at about 11:15. In principle, the intruders were safe at this time and they could leave in a vehicle. We can roughly calculate the speed of the car, distance and other factors. I think the suspect vehicle passed the London checkpoint between 11:40 and 12:20. Between 12 and 12:30, the suspect vehicle arrived near Reading." The road outside the villa village is the highway from Reading to London.
While Liu Zhen was thinking, Liang Xi continued to explain: "I speculate that there is a British policeman in the criminal gang. He must find a way to know the police 's movements in the villa village, and he may even go to the villa village in person to inquire about the situation. In addition, the other party has a hacker, so the criminal gang must know that I did not call the police. It is very safe for the criminals who sneaked into my villa to evacuate by car normally, and they must evacuate. When I was chatting with the staff of the villa village in the morning, I learned that shortly after the patrol police arrived, other police arrived at the scene by helicopter." The variable is that Liang Xi did not call the police, giving the criminals a safety zone.
Liu Zhen understood: "It's just an ordinary kidnapping case. They wouldn't send a helicopter at night. It should be MI5."
Liang Xi nodded: "Yes, that's why I said we must evacuate. MI5 poses a greater threat to criminal gangs."
Liu Zhen picked up the phone: "Little Cat, I want the information of all vehicles heading north into London from the north checkpoint on Highway 7 between 11:40 and 12:20 last night. I also want the information of all vehicles heading south into Reading from the south checkpoint on Highway 7 between 12:00 and 12:30 in the morning. Send it to me." Liu Zhen is the deputy captain of the Anti-Powder Brigade and the captain of the direct team. She has a high level of authority in handling cases.
Liu Zhen hung up the phone and turned the phone around for a while: "Liang Xi, I understand your passion for detective work. Our team is on a break today, so I can play with you. Just listen to me first."
Liu Zhen stopped Liang Xi from speaking: "I have worked my way up from the grassroots to my current position. As a member of the anti-powder team, I must tell you that the bad guys are sometimes so bad that you can't even imagine. I know you are serious, but investigating a case is not like that. It's not like you suddenly have an inspiration and think there are bad guys somewhere. Today I am willing to play a detective game with you. I don't think you are talking nonsense, I think your analysis makes sense, but what about it?" How can you express your thoughts tactfully?
For example, when Wang Shuang was arrested last time, there was a high probability that Wang Shuang would escape by car, so the normal operation was to chase him by car. In the absence of any clues, the pursuit could not be abandoned. Liang Xi thought that Wang Shuang would definitely be arrested if he went east, so Liang Xi asked Baker to search south. Liu Zhen could not understand this kind of thinking logic. Of course, the final result was good, but Liu Zhen thought it was just luck. A blind cat meets a dead mouse.
Liang Xi accepted it humbly and nodded: "Okay, I understand."
Liu Zhen received a call: "Hey Kitty, four cars? Send the photos to my phone."
Liu Zhen looked at the photos of the four suspect vehicles that Xiaomao had sent to her phone. She slid her finger across the phone, and when she saw the third car, she paused. She was in a state of stillness, as if she had paused.
This is a blue SUV. There is a small sign on the passenger seat. There is a very blurry QR code on the sign, and there seems to be a line of words. It looks like a QR code for moving the car. After scanning it with a mobile phone, the owner's phone will be connected, but the owner's phone number will not be displayed. Liu Zhen is very familiar with this black and white sign. This is the vehicle pass for the anti-powder team base. (The UK has the highest rate of scanning code payment in the world. It is not as some people say that only cash is used abroad. QR codes are very common in the UK.)
Because the work of drug enforcement is dangerous and special, each team member has several civilian license plates, and they are real license plates. The license plate on this car is not the license plate of the drug enforcement team, but the car is. Whether it is the shape, color or brand, or even the few scratches on the hood made by passers-by with keys, Liu Zhen is very familiar with it.
Liu Zhen looked up at Liang Xi, then handed the phone to Xiang Baker.
Baker looked at the photo and was surprised. "Drunkard? That's unlikely. We had a drink in the bar last night. He got a call saying his wife asked him to go back and be a qualified father-to-be. We laughed at him for a long time. He called me this morning and said he had to accompany his wife to the pregnancy check-up and canceled our rowing plan."
Liu Zhen picked up the phone and said, "Kitty, notify everyone to gather at the entrance of the County Council Hall. Notify each person individually, and don't notify the drunkard."
…
The drunkard's home was not far from the county council hall. When they arrived near the drunkard's home, Liang Xi sat in Liu Zhen's car and watched Liu Zhen and Baker walk into the drunkard's home. They were visiting the drunkard as colleagues and friends.
After waiting for a few minutes, Baker rushed out of the front door with his hands holding a gun. Then an SUV drove out from the left side of the house and rushed onto the road. The drunk driver made a sharp turn and the tires made a screeching sound. At this time, six cars parked on the side of the road drove out together, sirens sounded, and surrounded the drunk's car in the middle of the road. The members of Liu Zhen's team opened the car door as a cover and raised their weapons to aim at the vehicle.
Baker leaned against a tree and yelled, "Drunkard, throw out the gun."
The drunkard slowly opened the car door and walked out, but he still held his gun in his right hand.
Owen, who was closest to the drunkard, shouted, "Drunkard, put the gun down. It's over. It's all over."
The drunkard shook his head and slowly raised his gun. Owen and others shouted, "Drunkard, put the gun down, put it down." When the suspect's gun muzzle is higher than the waist, it is considered an attack and can be shot directly.
Just when the drunkard was about to commit suicide by using his colleague's hands, Liang Xi picked up the police loudspeaker in Liu Zhen's car and said, "Drunkard, the child in your wife's belly is not yours."
The drunkard turned around and looked at the car Liang Xi was in: "What?"
Liang Xi said: "Husbands are always the last to know about this kind of thing. If you don't believe me, you can ask your brothers. Drunkard, I don't think it's necessary to sacrifice your life for the money for milk powder for other people's children. "
The drunk turned to look at Irving: "Is what he said true?" He and Irving had the best personal relationship.
