Guan Feng looked up at the time and instructed, "It's getting late. Lily, call Wang Xun and Sheng Guo and tell them to go back and rest after they've finished investigating the clues. Xiang Dong, you and I will be on duty tonight!"
Huang Lili said, "Okay."
Li Xiangdong then asked, "Captain, are we going to have to watch the surveillance video again?"
Guan Feng waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, we won't watch the video tonight. After Wang Xunsheng and the others finish their investigation, we'll focus on studying the intersections of these interpersonal relationships to see who is the most suspicious."
Li Xiangdong was relieved.
It was a little after 7 p.m.
Wang Xun, Liu Shengguo, and others have all finished reviewing the data.
They sent the relevant information to the second working group and then went home at Guan Feng's request.
Guan Feng and Li Xiangdong were responsible for reviewing these materials.
......
I slept soundly through the night.
Guan Feng booked a room in the dormitory last night.
He got up, washed up, and then went to the cafeteria to order a bowl of beef and vermicelli soup.
The cafeteria cook caught sight of Guan Feng and chuckled, "Heh! Captain Guan, you're here early today?"
Guan Feng said, "I was busy with the case and didn't go home last night."
The canteen cook said, "You criminal investigators really work hard, always having to work overtime. You should eat a good breakfast." He added a few more slices of beef to the bowl and said, "Captain Guan, the usual three dishes are ready! If you want any side dishes, please help yourself."
Guan Feng nodded, took the breakfast, and returned to his seat.
After a quick meal, he returned to his office.
A short while later.
Zheng Yuandong walked in carrying a thermos and asked, "How's the investigation going? I heard they arrested the landlord?"
Guan Feng explained, "This landlord was outrageous, causing a ruckus and deliberately stirring up trouble. Especially considering Chen Qing's mental state at the time, I had the Economic Crime Investigation Department bring him back. What? He's been arrested?"
Zheng Yuandong laughed and said, "That's right! You don't know until you investigate, and what you find is shocking. This person has evaded taxes in quite a few places, and he's bound to suffer a huge loss."
Guan Feng said, "No wonder! I knew she was something special when I saw her with her hands on her hips yesterday."
Zheng Yuandong said, "Let's not talk about her anymore. What about the case? How far has it progressed?"
Guan Feng briefly introduced the case: "...At present, it seems that Zhao Jianguo has been framed. Based on the investigation of Wang Juan's WeChat Moments, Wang Jian is a prime suspect. However, we do not intend to alert him for the time being. We will review the surveillance footage this morning to see if we can find any clues and then catch him red-handed."
Zheng Yuandong said, "You're right! In that case, let's continue with your steps. Also, the Municipal Bureau just issued a notice saying that they're going to review some old cases, especially those that have had a huge impact on the public. I reckon this matter will ultimately fall to you."
"The team's tasks are quite tight, so I wanted to ask you what your thoughts are on the selection of a deputy team leader. Promoting a deputy team leader as soon as possible can also help you carry out the case investigation and avoid distractions."
Guan Feng said, "I've thought about this issue too. Let's go to the office and talk."
The two entered the office.
Guan Feng considered carefully and said, "I think it should be Wang Xun! He's an experienced person and good at communicating with the outside world, so he's a suitable candidate for deputy team leader."
Zheng Yuandong asked, "Where is Liu Shengguo?"
Guan Feng said, "Sheng Guo's ability to handle cases is unquestionable, but he doesn't talk much, which might make dealing with other teams a bit troublesome."
Zheng Yuandong nodded and said, "We agree on this point! Okay, I'll talk to Director Bai later. If Director Bai has no objections, Wang Xun will serve as the deputy team leader. That way, you won't have to manage both the team's affairs and the group's affairs."
Guan Feng said, "Don't you have the captain in the team? I'll just focus on the case investigation."
Zheng Yuandong laughed and said, "How can that be? Director Bai specifically instructed that you will be moving up to a higher position in the future, so you must familiarize yourself with the team's work management as soon as possible. I think I will completely delegate authority to Group Two from now on. I won't participate unless there is a problem. If there is a problem, you can come to me."
Guan Feng shook his head and said, "How can it work without the captain overseeing things?"
Zheng Yuandong waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about this! I see the team members are all here, let's go out."
Guan Feng and Zheng Yuandong walked out of the office.
Huang Lili, Wang Xun, and others have already arrived.
"Team Leader Zheng!"
"Captain Guan!"
They all quickly greeted each other.
Zheng Yuandong glanced at Wang Xun, nodded to the others, and said, "You continue investigating the case." With that, he walked out of the second group's office.
Guan Feng then instructed, "Through yesterday's investigation, we did find some clues. Today, we will change our approach to the case. Focus on Wang Juan's rented residence and check all the surveillance cameras within a one-kilometer radius to see if any of the social connections we investigated yesterday were present on the cameras at the time of the incident!"
Wang Xun and Liu Shengguo both nodded quickly.
The four drove to the Food Science College.
A moment later.
The group arrived at the old house.
Guan Feng looked at the forks in the road and instructed, "Sheng Guo, you search along the eastern road. Wang Xun, you search along the western road. Lili, you come with me along the northern road."
Huang Lili asked, "What about the south side?"
Guan Feng said, "I'll be quick. We'll check the south side together later."
Huang Lili followed.
soon.
The two walked along the path to the north.
This is an urban village.
Surveillance cameras were scarce, but they found a supermarket not far away, and the flashing cameras at the entrance gave them hope.
Guan Feng stepped forward, showed his identification, and briefly explained his purpose. The supermarket owner immediately agreed to cooperate, saying, "The surveillance footage is all on this computer, stored in the cloud for seven days. You can look at it! You can look at it as much as you want!"
