The bank manager said, "His reason at the time was consumption."
Guan Feng asked, "I remember that for large withdrawals like these, we usually need to ask about the detailed purpose, right?"
The bank manager said, "That's right! But Wu Qiang is a major client of the bank. He used to make large deposits and withdrawals frequently, so we will be more lenient and will only conduct a general investigation into his intended use."
Guan Feng asked, "Where is the person in charge at the time?"
The bank manager said, "I'll go find it."
A moment later.
The female manager who appeared in the video came to the monitoring room.
The bank manager explained, "Manager Wang, these two are police officers. They're here to investigate another case. Just answer their questions. Also, this case is serious, so you mustn't disclose any information to anyone, understand?"
The female manager quickly replied, "I understand!"
Guan Feng briefly explained the situation, then asked, "When Wu Qiang took the 2 million, did he say what he was going to do with it?"
The female manager said, "I asked him about it at the time, and Wu Qiang seemed a bit down. He casually mentioned that a family member was sick. Was he involved in some kind of problem?"
Guan Feng said, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask! Is there anything else?"
The female manager shook her head and said, "That's all!"
Guan Feng nodded and watched the other person leave. He then checked the surveillance footage at the bank entrance and found that Wu Qiang had boarded the black car with license plate number 831. He looked at Zheng Yuandong and asked, "Is there anyone else in the team who can be temporarily spared?"
Zheng Yuandong said, "Let's head east? I'll have him follow up."
Guan Feng nodded and said, "Follow up on this car and find out who Wu Qiang met with before the money left the car."
"good!"
Zheng Yuandong nodded, dialed Li Xiangdong's number, gave him Wu Qiang's license plate number, and asked him to go directly to the monitoring center to retrieve relevant information. The purpose was simple: follow the car's trajectory and make sure not to miss any suspicious persons.
Li Xiangdong immediately said there was no problem.
Guan Feng then turned his gaze back to the bank manager and asked, "Do we have Wu Qiang's previous deposit and withdrawal records?"
The bank manager said, "Yes, yes."
He took the two back to the office, retrieved relevant bank information, and pointed to a series of data, saying, "These are all Wu Qiang's large expenditures over the past five years, with deposits and withdrawals exceeding 500,000 yuan."
Guan Feng looked at the computer and found that there was a lot of data on it, dozens of records.
He recalled the words of the sales manager. It seemed that Wu Qiang had indeed made a lot of money from the Shang Group over the years. In just the last five years, his large deposits reached 30 million yuan. Of course, some of these deposits were for official purposes, but they also reflected Wu Qiang's income level.
It seems I absolutely have to make a trip to Wu Qiang's house!
Guan Feng stood up, shook hands with the bank manager, and said, "I'll say it again: keep it a secret! Don't cause trouble for yourself or the case."
The bank manager hurriedly said, "I understand, I understand."
Guan Feng nodded and left with Zheng Yuandong.
......
On the bus.
Zheng Yuandong started the car, turned his head and asked, "Guan Feng, is our next stop Wu Qiang's house?"
Guan Feng nodded and said, "Wu Qiang's annual income has been several million over the past few years. It's hard not to be moved by such a large sum of money. Plus, with 2 million yuan to be withdrawn at this juncture, we have to go and see him no matter what!"
Zheng Yuandong said, "Then let's go over there now."
The car sped along and arrived at Wu Qiang's house in less than ten minutes.
Wu Qiang's family lives in a large flat in the new urban area.
Guan Feng frowned as he looked at the one-apartment-per-floor design and said, "It seems Wu Qiang's family is quite well-off! Let's go up and take a look."
Zheng Yuandong sighed, "This house is worth at least two or three million. We work ourselves to the bone our whole lives, on the front lines of danger every day, and we still might not earn as much as they do in a year!"
Guan Feng said, "This money belongs to medical patients; we can't afford to be investigated."
Zheng Yuandong nodded: "That's true!"
The two went upstairs.
Han Xun, who was on duty, greeted Zheng Yuandong.
Zheng Yuandong pointed to Guan Feng and said, "This is Guan Feng, who came from our Third Squadron. He is now the deputy captain of the Municipal Public Security Bureau's Major Crimes Team. You can just call him Captain Guan."
Han Xun said excitedly, "We've met before, and I'm so glad to be working under Captain Guan again."
Guan Feng said, "I remember you. We've worked together a few times at the Chengbei Police Station before. The fact that you were able to join the Criminal Investigation Team shows that you have a solid foundation and profound skills. This case is quite urgent, so let's all work together."
Han Xun nodded excitedly.
Guan Feng gestured towards the house with his chin and asked, "What's the situation now?"
Han Xun said, "We reviewed the surveillance footage and confirmed that Wu Qiang came out of the elevator around 10 a.m., then turned towards his home, and never came out again."
Guan Feng said, "In that case, let's go up and knock on the door."
The three of them came out of the stairwell and arrived at Wu Qiang's door.
Bang bang bang!
Guan Feng knocked on the heavy iron gate.
Footsteps sounded from inside the house, and then someone came to the door and asked, "Who is it?"
Guan Feng said, "They're from the community, here to visit and raise awareness about telecom fraud."
The person inside seemed to open the peephole, glance at Guan Feng, and asked suspiciously, "What telecom fraud? We don't have any cases here. Why don't you ask around at other places?"
Guan Feng persisted, saying, "This is a task assigned by our superiors. Even if you don't have it, you still have to sign something to show that you've accepted our propaganda. Otherwise, we'll have to ask the property management to come and ask you to cooperate!"
There seemed to be some hesitation inside, but after a moment the door creaked open and someone said, "Where's the form? Let me see! Just sign it and leave, don't waste time."
Guan Feng blocked the door from closing.
Wu Qiang frowned as he looked at Guan Feng's foot sticking in and asked, "What are you trying to do? Do you believe I'll call the police right now? Publicizing this? Is this how you publicize things?"
Guan Feng took out his identification and said, "Call the police? We are the police! We're here to investigate a case with you, and we hope you'll cooperate!"
It was visibly alarmed that Wu Qiang's expression turned somewhat panicked. He then looked at Guan Feng and asked, "W-what's going on?"
Guan Feng said, "Let's go inside and talk!" and led Zheng Yuandong and the other man into the room.
He went into the living room, looked at Wu Qiang, and asked, "Is anyone else home?"
Wu Qiang said, "My wife has gone on a trip, so I'm home alone for the time being."
Guan Feng asked, "Where did you go on vacation?"
Wu Qiang said, "Let's go to Thailand."
Guan Feng stared at Wu Qiang and said, "That's quite far! Didn't you have a sick family member? How can your wife still be thinking about going abroad?"
Wu Qiang's expression changed slightly, and he said, "How...how did you know?"
Guan Feng said, "We know a lot more than you think. Are you sure you still want to keep it a secret?"
Wu Qiang's expression changed again, and he said, "I...I didn't hide anything. What...what do you want to ask?"
Guan Feng said, "Three days ago you withdrew 2 million yuan in cash, and you said at the time that it was for medical treatment, but now you're saying your wife went out to play? Tell me, who in your family is sick? And which hospital did you deposit this money into?"
Wu Qiang's expression changed completely.
