Chapter 41 Chapter 41 Found the evidence
When Huang Wenfeng saw Qiu Jiang and the other three, his smile was uglier than crying. If they hadn't been blocking the door, he would have wanted to run away.
Too bad he can't escape.
He gave a somewhat ingratiating smile. "Officer, officer, do you have any further questions?"
"Come out with us."
Fortunately, we didn't go inside to question them, otherwise the customers would have run away. It was a blessing in disguise.
He followed them to the corridor outside with a wry smile on his face. As soon as he got there, before he could ask them what information they wanted to know, the little girl spoke.
"If someone gambles and has no money to pay, will you still pay off the debt with property?" Qiu Jiang stared at him and asked seriously.
Huang Wenfeng immediately became anxious. "Comrade police, that was all Wei Li's doing. I didn't go into someone's house to steal their things. If there's any crime, it's Wei Li, not me."
"No one said it was you, whose house did he go to?"
Hearing Wang Li say this, his nervousness finally subsided a bit. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "That's a lot. Wei Li is a very vicious person. If someone doesn't pay him back for the second time, he'll beat them up. It's best if you can pay them back then. If they don't have any money, he'll go to their house and take things. He's basically hit everyone who used to come to the store regularly, but I don't know their names."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the three of them frowning. His heart immediately tightened, and he quickly added, "Although I don't know their names, they are all old gamblers. Maybe other people who play cards can recognize them. It's just..."
After a pause, he looked at them cautiously, "After all, Wei Li has a bad temper, and those people basically don't play with me anymore. I guess you three will have to go to the Xile Mahjong Hall to find him."
"Happy Mahjong Hall?" Qiu Jiang seemed to remember it. "Captain Ji, it seems to be on the east side of this street. We just passed by there."
"Very good, let's go."
"Yes." Qiu Jiang responded happily, wishing she could fly to Xile Mahjong Hall immediately.
However, he had not taken two steps when he saw Ji Mingcheng turning around. Before Huang Wenfeng could stop looking relieved, he met his gaze and immediately became nervous.
"You come with us too."
"Ah? I want to go too?" Huang Wenfeng was not very happy.
"Is there a problem?" Ji Mingcheng was much more ferocious than him.
"..." Huang Wenfeng quickly changed the subject, "Of course, of course. I'll go."
The group of four didn't even drive, they just walked for about ten minutes and saw the Xile Mahjong Hall.
The decoration of Xile Mahjong Hall is obviously older, and the decorative tiles are old and cracked, but the clattering sound of mahjong can be heard through the insulated door curtain, so it is obvious that there are quite a few customers.
The boss of this restaurant was also at home. When he saw Huang Wenfeng, he thought he was here to cause trouble again. He suddenly stood up with a look of alertness on his face, even a little scared. He didn't look like he was fine.
Ji Mingcheng glanced at him sideways.
Huang Wenfeng smiled awkwardly, "It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding."
Then, fearing that the boss would reveal his past, he took the initiative and quickly walked over to shake the boss's hand warmly, "Brother, it's not me who's looking for you, it's a police colleague who's looking for you. I'm just showing you the way, don't get me wrong."
Ji Mingcheng didn't have time to pay attention to his little tricks. He stepped forward and told the boss his purpose. Upon hearing this, the boss immediately became excited, "Comrade police, that Wei Li is very bad. You have to help us get our things back."
Qiu Jiang didn't understand, "Uncle, were you robbed too?"
"That's right." The boss was very angry when he talked about this.
"This mahjong parlor was opened by my father-in-law. He got a bit older these past two years and didn't want to run it anymore. Later, their mahjong parlor opened up and attracted all the customers from our area. My father-in-law decided to close it and go home to retire. I usually go there to play mahjong, but there was one time when I didn't bring enough money, and I didn't refuse to pay it back. As a result, Wei Li got drunk that day and brought a group of thugs to smash my house and took away a lot of things. Tell me, is there any justice in this world?"
He was furious when he talked about this, and continued, "Later, I didn't want to go to their place anymore, so I took over the mahjong parlor and continued to run it. Later, some old customers who were in the same situation as me came back, and our mahjong parlor was revived. But because of this, Wei Li still won't let us go. He often comes here to scare people in a weird way. He is really not a good person."
At this time, the other people in the mahjong hall also heard what they had just said and followed suit.
"He also robbed our house."
"It's the same in everyone's family. My little grandson was so scared that he had a high fever. It almost cost our family members the life of the deceased."
"Me too. I heard he even killed someone. How scary."
…
"Comrade police, please don't let him out."
Everyone in the mahjong parlor had some grudge against Wei Li, and they were filled with indignation.
Ji Mingcheng and Qiu Jiang felt like their ears were about to explode. After urgently stopping the fight, they said, "Those whose things were snatched away by Wei Li, raise your hands."
More than half of the people in the mahjong parlor extended their hands.
"Whose family has lost a fruit knife like this?" Qiu Jiang continued hurriedly. She was still holding one of the fruit knives she bought on Kaiyuan Road yesterday. It was even the same color as the one Wei Li used to commit the crime.
They all took a look, and soon someone shouted, "This looks like it belongs to me. I haven't found my fruit knife since he came to my house that time. I thought I accidentally put it in the garbage bag and threw it away as trash."
The speaker was an aunt in her fifties or sixties wearing a red sweater. After she finished speaking, she stood up and took a closer look at the fruit knife in Qiu Jiang's hand.
He nodded more affirmatively.
"But my fruit knife isn't this new, and it even has a hole in the handle. This one doesn't have a hole either."
As soon as she finished speaking, Qiu Jiang quickly took out the photo of the murder weapon. Wang Li also came over, and the two of them carefully identified the position of the handle.
A smile instantly appeared on his face, "Captain Ji, you really have good eyes."
very good.
It's worth spending so much time to investigate.
After obtaining the evidence here, they went to the gangsters who often accompanied Wei Li to rob, accompanied by Huang Wenfeng, to verify it and successfully obtained their testimony.
After everything was ready, they rushed to the police station.
When they arrived at the police station, Wei Li had already been escorted in from the detention center. Ji Mingcheng and Wang Li, the main interrogators this time, entered the interrogation room one after another, and Qiu Jiang followed closely behind and sat in her own special recording position.
When all the relevant testimonies were brought to Wei Li's desk, he knew that his plan had completely failed. He immediately collapsed, slid off his chair to the ground, and finally admitted his guilt.
The trial process went quite smoothly, taking less than half an hour in total. Qiu Jiang was very proud when he came out of the interrogation room. He wanted to shout loudly to let everyone know that their team five had solved another case.
It's just so cool.
Not only did she feel great, but when she got to the office, everyone else applauded.
"Amazing, Qiu Jiang, you're truly worthy of being the crime-solving expert of our fifth team."
"Amazing, awesome! We should learn from our Jiang Jiang in the future. Maybe we can solve a case one day."
…
Qiu Jiang was surrounded by them, and everyone was in high spirits, as if it was New Year's Day.
After a while, Ji Mingcheng also came in from outside. Seeing this scene, he also smiled and said, "Since we solved another case, I will treat everyone to afternoon tea. I will be here soon."
“Wow—”
“Wow——”
"Team Season is so impressive—"
The whole office was in an uproar. Those who didn't want to come to Team 5 but had to come were thankful for their choice at that time again and again, otherwise how could they have met such a generous leader.
Not only was he fair and never did unnecessary things, he also treated them to food and drinks from time to time. He was simply an ideal leader.
It's so cool.
Seeing that the office of Team 5 was bustling again, the offices of the neighboring teams were all scratching their heads in curiosity.
"What are they talking about? Why are they so happy?"
"It seems like they're celebrating solving another case."
"It's just a case solved, why are you so happy?"
They just don't understand.
"Who knows?"
They murmured to themselves for a while, thinking that the people in Team Five were really unreserved. They had only solved a case, and it wasn't a particularly big one, so they were really not being reserved.
However, there are so many cases in the city every day, and the work on their hands is not easy. After muttering a few words briefly, they went back to work on their own responsibilities.
It was not until Deng Xingwang called for people to go downstairs to get things that several young men from Team 5 rushed down and soon each of them brought back a large bag of things.
They could tell at a glance that it was a bag from the famous and expensive foreign hamburger chain that had recently opened in their city.
"Oh my god, how much does this cost?"
"I guess we have a month's salary."
"Shit, look behind them, are they carrying bags from that amazing milk tea shop on the next street?"
Someone was sharp-eyed and saw the logo on the bag at a glance, and everyone was stunned.
With so many things, it must cost at least a thousand.
Who is so rich?
They were all extremely envious and jealous, but they soon found out the answer. They knew that it was the team leader from Hong Kong who invited them. Many of them regretted not wanting to move.
If they had been willing to transfer to Team 5 at that time, I would be among the people envied now.
I regret it so much.
They were all drooling until someone came out of Team 5's room holding a drink and eating a hamburger.
"Huh? Isn't that guy from Team 5?"
“I think it was someone from the detention center.”
They called out to him curiously, wondering why he was still holding something in his hand.
The child was extremely happy and didn't hide anything. "Team Ji treated everyone to afternoon tea. There was too much food for Team Five to finish, so they put the extra on the table and told anyone who wanted to eat to take some. Someone from the Trace Identification Department just left with some food. Unfortunately, I was a little late, so he took the last cup of milk tea."
He said this with a bit of regret, but he was also very happy to be able to eat this foreign thing.
"Then I'll be leaving first."
He waved to them and walked away leisurely while eating his burger.
Those who heard it swallowed hard.
"Then let's go back."
"Ahem, I have a file that I want Captain Ji to look at. Our captain asked me to deliver it to Captain Ji, so I'll go over there first." Someone just ran away with a folder in his arms.
Everyone else was stunned.
Good man, who are you trying to fool?
They also quit, "I have something to do with Li Ming, I'll go too."
"I'm going to visit my cousin. My grandma wants her to come back for dinner tonight."
They quickly left one by one, leaving those who were not good at talking with wide eyes and cursing, "You are useless."
However, not long after, some of them found excuses to go to Team 5, and after a while they came back with a drink in their hands and a dessert in their mouths.
I am so envious.
There are delicious foods to eat, so why bother with face? The rest of the people quickly found excuses to go to Team 5, but unfortunately it was too late, and all the food had been distributed.
Is there anything more pitiful than this?
This afternoon was definitely an extremely exciting time to go to work for the people in Team 5. Everyone left work with a smile on their face and was looking forward to going to work tomorrow.
After returning home, Qiu Jiang told them about the order in high spirits.
"This is really good for our business." Shi Yuexiu wiped her hands on her apron, unable to hide her excitement.
"Wow, Dad is awesome."
"Great, great, make money."
The two little ones hugged Qiu Hengan's thighs and acted coquettishly.
Qiu Hengan had a rare smile on his face that he couldn't suppress. "I... then let's go get ready now."
He excitedly pushed his wheelchair forward to prepare.
As expected, people still need to have a career.
Seeing his mental state, Qiu Jiang smiled with her eyes curved.
Shi Yuexiu also hurried out to work together.
The two of them worked enthusiastically and didn't even let Qiu Jiang and the others interfere. They cleaned up for three hours without feeling tired.
After finally finishing the cleaning, Shi Yuexiu quietly found Qiu Jiang and returned the money she had given her. "Jiang Jiang, take this money back and give it back to your leader. He took such good care of you, not to mention he's your leader. It's not appropriate for us to ask for his money."
"Sister-in-law, just keep it. If we don't accept it, our Captain Ji will definitely be unhappy." Qiu Jiang pushed the money back, hugged her neck and said in a sweet voice, "At worst, we can just make more for Captain Ji. Captain Ji will definitely like this method more."
She kept persuading him like this, but Shi Yuexiu didn't know Ji Mingcheng well and was afraid of making him unhappy, so she accepted the money. However, she added a portion of soup and other homemade food to the food for Ji Mingcheng.
I have to say that Qiu Jiang had only known Ji Mingcheng for a short time, so she guessed right. Ji Mingcheng was indeed very happy when he saw breakfast, and he ate all the food clean.
Other colleagues also praised it highly.
"Delicious, delicious, the buns made by your brother are still the best."
"This vermicelli bun is so delicious. The meat is not greasy at all. Even people like me who can't eat meat love it."
"Jiang Jiang, your brother's cooking skills are really amazing. There will be no problem for him to open a shop. Let me know when the shop opens, and I will go to support him." Deng Xingwang did not forget to praise while eating buns.
"Then I would like to welcome everyone in advance." Qiu Jiang could not hide her happiness.
"No problem, we will definitely come."
They gathered in groups of three or four to eat the buns, and praised the taste highly. However, if they wanted to buy more later, they would probably have to go over there in the evening. After all, their bureau had a cafeteria, and it was free, so not everyone could afford to buy them every morning.
Of course, when they feel hungry occasionally, they will definitely want her to help bring it to them in the morning. Even if they don’t eat it themselves, they can take it home for their family in the evening, so they don’t have to make a trip. The only troublesome thing is that they need to reheat it in the evening, but it is not a big deal. They prefer this method, so Qiu Jiang received many orders before she officially started work.
I just finished recording and collecting the money when I got to work.
But her good mood was shattered when she received the next notice.
Not long after arriving at work, Ji Mingcheng announced a piece of news, "From today on, everyone who goes out on field duty must set aside some time every day to practice shooting, at least half an hour, and there will be an assessment in a month."
When this order was issued, some people were happy and some were sad.
Veteran criminal police like Chen Da and Guo Kai definitely have no problem with their shooting skills, and some people are just good at shooting, like Deng Xingwang and others.
But some people began to worry, regretting that they had not practiced shooting well in the past, including Qiu Jiang.
Even though she had known about this arrangement this week, she still felt completely clueless when she heard the exact news.
The situation is too bad.
Deng Xingwang knew his situation after all, so he asked her, "Jiang Jiang, are you okay? Do you want to go practice shooting later?"
"Yes, of course—" Qiu Jiang said firmly.
Deng Xingwang was startled by her and could fully feel her determination to improve her marksmanship.
"Okay...Okay."
After Qiu Jiang simply tidied up the desk, he followed him to the shooting training ground on the top floor to practice. There were not many people practicing at the moment, so the administrator checked their credentials and let them in.
The two men stood at two adjacent shooting ranges and started shooting with their guns.
But compared to Deng Xingwang who pulled out his gun and shot, Qiu Jiang was getting familiar with the feel of holding the gun, constantly changing his gestures, looking for the best shooting posture.
After picking a gesture that she thought was acceptable, she squinted her eyes slightly and aimed at the target. The red dot in the center of the target in the distance looked pitifully small to her.
She adjusted her feet, her eyes never leaving the bull's eye of the target, and finally fired the first shot of the day.
The powerful impact made her hands numb, and the loud sound made her ears hurt.
But this was not as important as improving her marksmanship. She fired ten shots in a row, and soon the target moved over.
She was so nervous that her palms were full of sweat, and she was even afraid to look. She closed her eyes, took several deep breaths, and then secretly opened them a little to take a careful look.
The marks on the target came into view.
The good news is that there are finally marks on the target. The bad news is that there is not a single mark that hits the bull's eye. All the marks are on the edge of the target. Only one mark is close to the fifth ring, which is also the closest to the bull's eye among the six bullet marks.
That's right, there were six bullet marks on the target, and the remaining four were missing.
Deng Xingwang took a closer look and immediately applauded her, "Jiang Jiang, not bad. You hit the target six times this time. That's a big improvement."
She didn't feel much better after hearing the compliments. Her shoulders slumped and she said gloomily, "Don't praise me anymore. My level is far from being good. I still have some self-awareness."
Deng Xingwang scratched his head, not knowing how to comfort her.
"Why don't you talk to Captain Ji and just focus on tracking and physical skills? I heard Captain Ji mention to Brother Chen that we're not just training marksmanship. Starting next week, we'll probably add running and physical skills training every morning. We'll probably have competitions too. You should have no problem with those two. Captain Ji probably won't mind if you focus on one subject. After all, there aren't that many vicious people who need to use guns."
Qiu Jiang shook her head. "No, if we really encounter a mission, how can we know what our opponents will be like? I can't always let other teammates go on dangerous missions."
She couldn't get over this, but she was full of energy again. "I'll practice again. Xingwang, can you help me see what's wrong with my form?"
"No problem."
She started a new round of shooting. After ten times, she looked at the scores on the target. There was one seven-ring, two five-ring, six five-ring, and one off the target.
The results have improved a lot compared to the first time, but they are still terrible.
Qiu Jiang thought without a doubt that with his shooting skills, he might not be able to hit anyone. Maybe he would be more terrifying than the criminals.
This result is really not a happy one.
Deng Xingwang watched her shoot and scratched his face. "I think your form is fine. Why can't you hit the bull's eye?"
After saying that, he was afraid that he might have missed something, so he took the gun from her and asked her to observe his movements.
“Bang bang bang—”
After firing ten shots in a row, he pulled over the target to check his results.
Five shots hit the bull's eye, one shot hit nine rings, two shots hit eight rings, and the worst was four rings.
His worst score was almost her best.
Qiu Jiang looked at him with envy, but she didn't feel that there was any difference between her posture and his.
Both of them were confused.
Later, Deng Xingwang recalled it carefully and felt that it was not her posture that was wrong, but she was very unfamiliar with shooting, like a complete novice.
Deng Xingwang was so confused that he even suspected that their police academy had never taught them any shooting classes, otherwise how could such a situation happen.
But it shouldn't be like this. Even if they are trained as civilians, they should have at least one shooting class every week. At the very least, there should be an assessment before every holiday. There is no way they can be unfamiliar with the subject.
Qiu Jiang was a little embarrassed. "Actually, our school has a shooting class, but I never passed it."
In fact, even in her previous life, her archery skills were not good. Even though her mother was a majestic female general and her elder brother was also a good shooter, she was the only one who could not learn no matter how hard she tried. Otherwise, her mother would not have forced her to learn Qinggong.
She thought that if she wasn't very skilled in martial arts, it would be fine if she could run. In short, it was a good thing as long as she didn't get caught. Therefore, her lightness skill was definitely the best in the family.
In this life, even before she came here, her original body had excellent running results, but her shooting skills made the instructor scratch his head, and he couldn't understand how it could be so bad.
Thinking of this, she lowered her head and was too ashamed to face anyone.
