Surveillance footage!
The details of people entering and exiting the elevator are clearly shown.
Guan Feng called Huang Youwen over to identify him.
"This is my neighbor's wife..."
"This is my wife..."
"This is my neighbor's daughter..."
"This is my female neighbor upstairs..."
Surprisingly, there were no strangers in the surveillance footage.
Li Xiangdong frowned and asked, "Are you sure?"
Huang Youwen shook his head and said, "I do know all these people."
Guan Feng thought for a moment and said to Li Xiangdong, "The other party is likely feeling guilty. If the target is the 16th floor, they might come out from the 15th or 17th floor to avoid exposing the target immediately. Xiangdong, expand the search area."
Li Xiangdong sighed.
He said, "Then I'll continue comparing."
Guan Feng nodded and said, "I know that comparing surveillance footage is the hardest part. I'll treat you to an oyster feast once the case is solved."
Li Xiangdong chuckled and said, "Then it's settled."
Guan Feng said, "Would I lie to you?"
A moment later.
Chen Xuewen walked back.
"Team Leader Guan, we've made a new discovery! Your earlier deduction was correct; the safe wasn't pried open."
"It wasn't pried open?"
Guan Feng frowned.
Once it is determined that the opening was not forced open, the nature of this case could change.
Chen Xuewen adjusted his glasses and nodded, saying, "By comparing the gears of the safe, there was no friction damage. The later damage was all deliberately created."
He pointed out several pictures to Guan Feng.
Guan Feng asked, "Is it possible that there are other ways to unlock it?"
Chen Xuewen shook his head and said, "Impossible! This safe is a top-level C+ safe!"
Seeing that Guan Feng seemed not to understand, he took the initiative to explain:
"For C+ level safes, the industry standard is to use a key + password dual security unlocking method. If the other party did not damage the lock cylinder, it proves that they must have the key. As for the marks on the outside, they are all marks of deliberate damage."
Guan Feng nodded and said, "It seems the suspect has been misleading our investigation. If the other party opened the safe with a key, it means that the other party has a close relationship with Huang Youwen, and at least has access to the key."
Chen Xuewen also agrees with this assessment.
Guan Fengchong, the patrolman, said, "Call Huang Youwen over."
A moment later.
Huang Youwen walked over.
Hearing Guan Feng's assessment, he looked surprised: "No, that can't be, right?"
Guan Feng asked, "Who knows the password? How many keys are there in total for the safe?"
Huang Youwen said, "Only my wife and I know the password. There are two keys in total, one for me and one for my wife. My wife usually keeps them in her office, while I keep them at home."
Guan Feng asked, "Where's the key? We need to check it."
Huang Youwen said, "Okay."
He quickly led the two to the master bedroom, opened the bedside table, and was about to retrieve a key from a hidden compartment.
"Wait! Move aside!"
Guan Feng frowned.
Take out the gloves and put them on.
He stepped forward and took out the silver key.
He handed it to Chen Xuewen and said, "Check if there are any fingerprints left on it."
Chen Xuewen said, "Okay."
Guan Feng then looked at Huang Youwen and said, "I initially thought it was a theft, but now it might be a crime committed by someone you know. Do you have any suspects in mind? For example, could someone else have access to the key?"
Huang Youwen clicked his tongue and shook his head, saying, "Officer Guan, I usually keep this key at home, and it's not something an ordinary person could access."
Guan Feng said, "Then we can only investigate everyone. Who have you seen in the past two days? Especially from yesterday afternoon to this morning! Tell us about each of them."
Huang Youwen pondered, "Yesterday afternoon I went to work, and it was my colleagues and... and..."
Guan Feng asked, "With whom?"
"Li Lan".
What did you do when you met?
Huang Youwen hesitated for a moment before saying, "I happened to be on duty last night, and she was on duty too. I figured I didn't have anything to do that night, so I chatted with her for a while."
"They only chatted for a short while?"
Guan Feng saw through the other party's concealment at a glance.
"He also did something special."
Guan Feng frowned and reminded him, "Huang Youwen, let me tell you, this case is no longer an ordinary theft case. If you continue to conceal anything and delay the investigation, you will not only lose both your money and your property, but you will also bear corresponding criminal responsibility!"
"I know, I know!"
Huang Youwen repeatedly assured her, "Actually, I just did some things that men and women do together."
Guan Feng frowned and asked, "When was the last time you saw the money in the safe?"
Huang Youwen thought for a moment and said, "Yesterday afternoon before I went to work."
Noticing Guan Feng's questioning gaze, she affirmed, "It was yesterday afternoon before I went to work! I needed cash, so I opened the safe and took out some money."
Guan Feng nodded.
But before he could even ask the next question...
Ring ring!
Huang Youwen's phone rang.
Mysterious man!
They made a threatening phone call!
