Chapter 14 Chapter 14 Arrange Qiu Jiang, urgent task

The only sound left in the office was the shuffling of papers. Soon even the sound disappeared. The three of them looked at Ji Mingcheng together, waiting for his next instructions.

Ji Mingcheng was sitting on the sofa at the moment and asked, "What did you see?"

Qiu Jiang and the other two looked at each other and quickly decided on the order in which they would speak.

"Captain Ji, I think not all of the thirteen prisoners who escaped this time participated in the plan of this escape." Deng Xingwang was the first to express his opinion.

"Look, the other people's crimes weren't serious; they could be released after a few years in prison. But escaping is a serious matter, and they might even face the death penalty. There's absolutely no need for that."

Deng Xingwang added another point. "Also, when we received the call from the police station and rushed over, the five people we arrested were completely inexperienced. They were panicked and timid, and they didn't seem like the type to do such a thing. So I'm inclined to focus on investigating the eight people we found on the mountain. That's all."

Deng Xingwang said this with a smile, and turned around to wink at Qiu Jiang behind him, feeling that his guess was definitely correct.

Then, Wang Li, who was sitting next to him, began to speak, "I agree with his point of view, and I think we can narrow it down a bit and focus on Huang Weihua, Wang Haibing, Zhu Zedong, Liu Er, and Li Kuangyuan."

"The reason is simple. These five people knew each other and were a gang. The crime they committed was serious and they were sentenced to life imprisonment. If they were really transferred to prison, it would be difficult for them to escape. Therefore, it was easier and more likely that they would commit the crime in the car."

"At the same time, with something this dangerous, the more people know about it, the more likely it is to go wrong. Furthermore, they might not have had the opportunity to know who was in the car with them before they set out. Therefore, it's most likely that the five of them conspired together. Furthermore, I believe Wang Haibing is the most likely mastermind."

"Although he's not the strongest of the five and can't fire a gun, according to the files, he's quite cunning and has the most agile brain. The others, while powerful, clearly lack the ability to orchestrate such a large-scale operation. Furthermore, I believe the best place to start if we want to interrogate him is with Liu Er."

"Reason?" Ji Mingcheng asked.

"Because according to the files, he mainly kidnapped people and cut phone lines during the robbery, but didn't hit anyone. This shows that he is a coward. Plus..."

Wang Li hesitated and continued, "His wife is about to give birth. If we use his wife as a bargaining chip, he might not refuse."

"Giving birth?"

Deng Xingwang looked at the case carefully several times, but he didn't see any description of Liu Er's wife giving birth, so how did he know?

Qiu Jiang also looked at him curiously.

"Because Liu Er and I are from the same village, I know something about his family's situation." Wang Li did not hide anything, but frowned a little when he said this. He quickly stood up to assure him and volunteered.

"Captain Ji, although I'm somewhat related to his ancestors, I promise that this won't affect my judgment and my adherence to my police duties. I request to participate in his interrogation."

Qiu Jiang also looked at Ji Mingcheng at this time, wondering whether he would agree. Before she could be curious for too long, Ji Mingcheng had already spoken.

"Sit down first and wait for her to finish. We can discuss the rest later."

"Yes." Wang Li thought about it and sat down, took out a pen and waited for Qiu Jiang to speak.

Qiu Jiang was a little hesitant. After all, everyone was talking about solving the fugitive case, but what she wanted to say was a bit off topic.

"Speak." Deng Xingwang didn't say anything, but just opened and closed his lips to remind her.

Qiu Jiang pursed her lips and decided to follow her previous idea.

"I agree with what Xingwang and Brother Wangli said, but what I want to talk about is... the robbery."

"Isn't this case already closed? Why are you talking about this?" Deng Xingwang was puzzled.

Wang Li was also a little confused. He looked through the robbery case files again, but still had no clue.

"Go on." Ji Mingcheng didn't interrupt her.

His attitude gave her a little confidence. Qiu Jiang exhaled and continued, "That morning on the mountain, although Team Ji counterattacked these five people before they could even fire a shot, let's not forget that three of our colleagues transporting prisoners down the mountain were shot and killed. This proves that some of these people knew how to shoot..."

Qiu Jiang paused for a second before continuing, "Moreover, the files show that of the four people on duty at the supply and marketing cooperative at night, three were badly beaten. One was even sent to the hospital for emergency treatment and almost died. This shows how brutal they were. Imagine if such a vicious group of people would let the remaining supply and marketing cooperative employee go?"

"Didn't he run away?" Deng Xingwang was puzzled.

"But so much time has passed, has he come back?"

Her question stunned Deng Xingwang for a moment.

"The five people in the file testified that this man ran away, but who would run away and not come back for such a long time?" Qiu Jiang's thoughts gradually became clear. She glanced at Ji Mingcheng stealthily again, and seeing the corners of his lips slightly raised, she became bolder and continued to speculate.

"And even if it's true, as those three supply and marketing cooperative members said, that this guy had long since decided not to work, and maybe he was frightened by the robbery and just left, even if that's the case, what reason could there be for him to disappear for nearly six months?"

"I've heard about that," Wang Li recalled, frowning. "At the time, the Xulin City police investigated this man, but couldn't find him. Plus, the day before the accident, he told his family that he'd found a good way to make money and might go out with someone. His family thought he'd taken the opportunity to follow that person. But it's certainly strange that he hadn't called home for six months."

"Jiang Jiang, what's your guess..." Deng Xingwang hesitated, then suddenly realized something. He hissed, a chill running down his back as he asked, "Do you suspect this person is dead?"

"Isn't that possible?" Although she didn't want this to be true.

You have to know that the original crime these people were charged with was only robbery, which already resulted in them being sentenced to life imprisonment, but what if they also killed someone?

The only thing that awaits them is the death penalty.

No one is not afraid of death. Will they keep silent about the murder in order to reduce the punishment? After all, no one else knows what they did that night.

In addition, judging from today's situation, these people are really cruel and ruthless. They even dare to kill policemen. What else are they afraid to do?

Could it be that this is why Team Ji called them to a meeting?

They looked at Ji Mingcheng together.

As expected.

"Xulin City has confirmed that Jia Honghe has not returned home and has not contacted any relatives or friends. His family has found the contact information of the person who originally said he would take Jia Honghe out to earn money, but they have not yet contacted that person. However, according to the information provided by Xulin City, this person is likely still in Xulin."

"Then let's go check it out quickly." Deng Xingwang couldn't sit still for a moment and wished he could go to Xulin City and fall down right now.

Qiu Jiang held him back, then looked at Ji Mingcheng and asked, "Captain Ji, where should we start investigating now?"

"Two directions. One is the whereabouts of Jia Honghe and the headhunter in Xulin City, and the other is the interrogation of the fugitive. I need someone familiar with the situation in Xulin City to follow."

Ji Mingcheng stated his plan frankly, and it seemed that he was planning to go to Xulin City in person. Bringing someone who was familiar with the situation in Xulin City would indeed save a lot of trouble.

Deng Xingwang and Qiu Jiang were naturally not suitable candidates, but they were not familiar with the Municipal Bureau, and they had no idea who was familiar with Xu Lin, so they were a little helpless for a while.

Wang Li felt a little conflicted after hearing this. He had just volunteered to stay and interrogate Liu Er, but...

"Captain Ji, I'm familiar with Xu Lin, please take me with you." Wang Li didn't think much about it and volunteered again.

Ji Mingcheng didn't seem surprised that he would stand up. He immediately agreed after he spoke, and glanced at Deng Xingwang and the other man.

Deng Xingwang immediately raised his hand to sign up, eager to try, "Team Ji, take me with you."

"Okay." Ji Mingcheng stood up. "Qiu Jiang will stay here to assist Guo Kai and Liu Da with the interrogation. Wang Li, Deng Xingwang, and I will go to Xu Lin. Do you understand?"

"clear--"

"Okay, go clean it up."

"yes--"

The three of them responded and walked out together. When they got outside, Deng Xingwang had not yet gotten over the novelty of this first field work in another world. He was so excited.

Qiu Jiang also smiled and said, "Then I wish you a successful start."

"Hey, that's for sure."

"...Jiang Jiang, if you have any new discoveries during the interrogation, please contact us." Wang Li said hesitantly.

"Okay, Brother Wang."

but……

Qiu Jiang blinked and asked a very practical question, "Then how do we contact each other?"

Wang Li immediately said, "I have a pager. This is my pager number. If you have anything, send me a message and I'll call you back."

Qiu Jiang breathed a sigh of relief when she received his handwritten pager number and assured him with a smile, "No problem."

"Hey, I have a pager too. Jiang Jiang, write down my pager number too."

Deng Xingwang pulled out the small black pager from his pocket and said, "Hey, I pestered my dad to buy me one."

Qiu Jiang suddenly realized, "No wonder Captain Chen was able to contact you when you were on a mission this morning."

"Look, what I bought is worth it." Deng Xingwang kept showing off, which made Qiu Jiang and Wang Li laugh.

However, the tasks on both sides were still quite urgent. In fact, due to the repeated urging of the superiors, the interrogation had already begun, so Qiu Jiang had to go to work first.

By two o'clock in the morning, the interrogation had made a complete confession of the jailbreak plan and process. However, when Jia Hong and this man were mentioned, they all denied it and refused to admit that they had killed him. They only said that he had escaped and they did not catch up with him.

Guo Kai and the others had ugly faces and planned to continue to argue with them. Fortunately, all that was left was to stay awake for a long time, and she was not needed for the time being. In addition, it was getting late, so Chen Da asked her to go to rest first. So Qiu Jiang spent the night in the Municipal Bureau dormitory for the first time, which was a rare occasion.

Because she was so tired, she was so exhausted that she didn't care whether this was an unfamiliar environment or not. She fell directly on the bed and fell asleep soundly until she was awakened by the sound of "bang bang bang" knocking on the door.

She suddenly opened her eyes, and before she could come to her senses, she jumped out of bed and ran to open the door.

"Qiu Jiang, urgent mission..."

Task?

Qiu Jiang suddenly came to his senses.
