Chapter 163 163 That organization suddenly targeted you?
Several people hurriedly followed the clerk into the technical team's office. Captain Zhou was flipping through the inspection report. Upon seeing them come in, he casually closed the report and handed it over, greeting them with, "You're here."
Guan Xia and the others greeted each other casually, then looked down at the inspection report. When they flipped through it, they found that in addition to Ning Xin and Ning Ping'an, there was a third report, and Geng Jing's name was on it.
Seeing the words "Geng Jing", Guan Xia immediately confirmed that the van used by the technical team to collect biological samples was the vehicle involved in the disappearance of Ning Xin and her daughter.
Guan Xia quickly flipped through the report, looked up at Captain Zhou, and asked, "Captain Zhou, we've found DNA from Ning Xin, Ning Ping'an, and Geng Jing. What about Liu Xiang? Have you found anything?"
Captain Zhou replied, "I just contacted Captain Xu. Although Liu Xiangren is still in the hospital and can't be apprehended for the next two days, other necessary work still needs to be done. Liu Xiang's biological sample has been obtained and is undergoing matching. The results are expected to be available soon."
Although the result is still unknown, both Guan Xia and Captain Zhou have already predicted what the result will be.
Guan Xia couldn't help but ask excitedly, "Have you interrogated Ge Qing about that van? If not, can I observe?"
Captain Zhou nodded. "Of course you can. That's why I asked Xiao Wu to call you. As soon as I got the call from the technical team, I guessed you guys wanted to participate in the interrogation."
Captain Zhou is a very meticulous person. So far, every cooperation with us has been a pleasure.
After only staying in the technical team's office for a few minutes, the group filed out again.
It had only been a few days since Guan Xia last saw Ge Qing, but in those few days, Ge Qing had lost a lot of weight and looked very depressed, especially his expression, which seemed quite disheartened. His eyes were swollen, and there were dark circles under his eyes, making him look very haggard.
During the interrogation again, Ge Qing behaved very numbly. She answered whatever the police asked without much expression, and her eyes were drooping as she stared at the ground in a daze.
In Ge Qing's confession, although she was driving the van, it actually belonged to Fan Ya. As far as she knew, it was bought by Fan Ya after she took over her father's supermarket.
The interrogating police officer asked, "Who did you buy it from? What's its name? Can you describe its appearance? Didn't the supermarket have a truck to transport goods?"
Ge Qing's expression didn't change at all, and even his voice didn't fluctuate. He said in an unusually calm voice, "I don't know who I bought it from. I only know that Liu Xiang helped introduce it. When Fan Ya first took over her father's supermarket, she didn't have much money, so she bought a second-hand van. However, it was Liu Xiang who drove the van back that day. I even took a special look around. Although it was a second-hand van, the paint had obviously been repainted, and the interior was also cleaned very well. We didn't expect that car to be involved in the case."
The interrogating police officer then asked, "After buying the van, did Liu Xiang ever ask you to borrow it?"
Ge Qing shook his head. "As far as I remember, no. However, Fan Ya sometimes drives out, but not often. He always goes back to visit his father."
The interrogating police then asked a few more questions, but Ge Qing's answers were very ordinary, without any suspicious or valuable information.
The interrogation lasted only a dozen minutes, and then Guan Xia watched Fan Ya's interrogation again. Her answer was similar to Ge Qing's. The van was second-hand, and she bought it at a very low price through Liu Xiang's acquaintance. As for the person who sold the car, two years had passed and Fan Ya could not remember it clearly. She only remembered that it was a man, a little short, and of ordinary appearance. He took the money and transferred the ownership very happily. Afterwards, she treated Liu Xiang to a meal and then drove the car back.
Although the car was second-hand, it had been driven for two years without any problems. She, Ge Qing and Gao Cuicui had washed it several times, both by themselves and at a car wash. They even replaced the seat cushions and floor mats after driving the car back, but they had never noticed or thought there would be bloodstains in the car.
At this point in the interrogation, Guan Xia and Captain Zhou both understood that if they wanted to resolve some doubts, they had to get Liu Xiang's confession.
Leaving the room where he was observing the interrogation, Pang Le couldn't help but sigh, "These three girls are so unlucky. They thought they had made a good friend, but they were clearly being taken advantage of. But there's one thing I really can't understand. Based on Liu Xiang's current behavior, she should have hidden the vehicle involved in the case well. How could she possibly sell it to Fan Ya? It sounds like she's really short of money."
Listening to Pang Le's words, Guan Xia's heart moved. She recalled the bank statements of Liu Xiang that Lu Tingfeng had given her before. In the past three years, nearly 100,000 yuan was transferred out one after another, and the van was sold to Fan Ya almost two years ago. Is there a possibility that Liu Xiang was really short of money at that time, so she did this seemingly unreasonable thing.
Guan Xia shared her speculation, and Ji An pondered for a moment before saying, "Actually, looking at Liu Xiang selling the van to Fan Ya from another perspective, it's not that risky. After all, if we hadn't traced Fan Ya and the others to Yan Xingyu's disappearance, given their completely innocent backgrounds, it would be hard to connect them to the disappearance of Ning Xin and her daughter five years ago."
Guan Xia nodded, and Ji An changed the subject, saying, "Guan Xia's guess does make sense. I've also been thinking about what those twelve bank statements mean. It's easy to find out if we look carefully, but everything has to make way for Captain Zhou and his team's next plan. So for now, we can only hold our ground and wait. It'll only take two days. Once Geng Jing is fooled and starts to act, we can arrest Liu Xiang directly. By then, we'll have a batch of search warrants, and we'll be able to investigate everything about her."
After discussing it, they returned to the office. The previous idea of watching the surveillance footage was no longer meaningful. Finding evidence was the key, and the other accomplices were secondary. After all, as long as Liu Xiang was arrested, all the accomplices would be exposed with a large number of people conducting a thorough investigation.
After sorting out the USB drive containing the surveillance footage, Guan Xia stared blankly at the computer for a while. Suddenly, she turned to look at Ji An and said nonchalantly, "Sister Ji, let's go to the Kangjian Physical Examination Center early tomorrow morning to line up and get a physical examination."
When these words were spoken, even Lu Tingfeng was stunned for a moment.
Pang Le said with some confusion: "How can your mind jump so much? Aren't we investigating this medical examination center? We already know there are problems with it, so why do we still need to go for a medical examination? Aren't you afraid that after the medical examination, your organs are matched, and that organization will suddenly target you?"
Perhaps because Ji An had been working with Guan Xia since arriving in Shangshuang City, he now followed Guan Xia's train of thought. After thinking for a few seconds, he said, "Do you still want to use that medical examination center to find a more core criminal suspect?"
Guan Xia leaned her head back in her chair, staring at the ceiling absentmindedly. "I've just been thinking about this carefully. We've found a lot of clues, but when you think about it, they're all small, marginal figures. Geng Jing and Liu Xiang, who seems crucial, are both a long way from the real core. In fact, Dr. Hu, who initially aroused our suspicion, was the one closest to the core. It's a pity she's passed away and is suspected of being silenced. The evidence she holds, which could be crucial, is also difficult to recover. So, after much thought, I think Kangjian Physical Examination Center is our only way to get in touch with the core figure of the organization."
After Guan Xia finished speaking, no one else spoke for a moment, obviously they were all thinking.
After a moment, Pang Le said, "It does sound reasonable, but I always feel that there might be some danger. After all, none of us can be sure whether there will be a match for us among the current customers of that medical examination center. If we are so unlucky that we are matched, then wouldn't the matched person go from secret to public, and it is very likely to alert the organization?"
Lu Tingfeng shook his head and said, "The task force is here, which means a large number of support personnel will arrive soon, not to mention the local manpower in Shangshuang City. As long as Geng Jing's line is open, all the thug-like peripheral members will be wiped out in ten days at the latest. By then, we will alert the enemy even if we don't want to. So hiding or not is meaningless. But if we can find the core person before all the peripheral members are wiped out, we will have more time to secretly investigate this organization and have more opportunities to find physical evidence."
After Lu Tingfeng finished speaking, he glanced at Ji An and asked, "What do you mean, Sister Ji?"
Ji An thought for a moment and said, "It's a bit risky, but if you want to catch a big fish, you have to use heavy bait. I agree with Guan Xia's idea, but just in case, Guan Xia shouldn't participate in the physical examination. Just be an escort. I'll do the physical examination, and Guan Xia will observe secretly to see if she can find anything."
Pang Le was worried about Guan Xia, but also concerned about Ji An. He couldn't help but say, "Since we're just in case, I think we should tell Xu Nian and the others. If they're unlucky enough to be targeted, at least they'll have support. After all, didn't we speculate before that Shangshuang City is likely one of the organization's bases? We don't know how many local tyrants there are. For safety, it's best to have more people secretly watching and not get themselves involved in the investigation."
Guan Xia looked at Pang Le's nervous expression and smiled, "Don't worry, we are not stupid and we will definitely not act rashly."
Pang Le sighed and leaned back in his chair, imitating Guan Xia's behavior by looking up. "Don't think I'm making a fuss. It might be because I've been following people too much lately. The more I investigate this case these past two days, the more uneasy I feel. It's like I've intuitively predicted something. Plus, Guan Xia has a special physique, so I'm really worried about something happening."
Not to mention Pang Le, Guan Xia also felt the same way, which is why she felt relieved when she heard that the task force had arrived.
Just as Guan Xia was about to speak to comfort Pang Le, she saw Pang Le suddenly sit up as if he had thought of something, twisting his head to look at Ji An and saying, "By the way, Sister Ji, didn't we just arrest two people sent by the buyer? If we follow the clues and arrest the buyer, we can pull out the core person, right?"
Before Ji An could answer, Guan Xia spoke pessimistically, "Didn't we observe the interrogation at noon today? The people sent here are two clueless college students. It's known that the person who contacted them is a man named Brother Chen. Although Brother Chen's specific identity hasn't been confirmed, we can guess that he must be some shady person. Not only is he ruthless, but it will take you a long time just to verify the truth of his confession. I guess all the peripheral members have been caught in the net. We can't put all our hopes on the investigation on a single clue."
Upon hearing this, Pang Le immediately returned to his previous posture, staring at the ceiling and sighing, "Alright, alright, following Guan Xia means going straight to the heart of the matter. I'm used to it. So let's not stay up late tonight and go straight back to the hotel. We'll get up early tomorrow to line up, so we don't miss out again."
Guan Xia glanced at the time. It was already past 10 p.m., so she sat up and said, "Let's go back to the hotel. Qi Bai and Zhong Xiaoyu might have been relieved at this time. Let's go back and ask about Liu Xiang's situation. If Xu Nian comes back, we can also ask him about the task force's plans for the investigation."
I have been in Shangshuang City for several days, but this is the first time I have returned to the hotel so early.
As expected, Zhong Xiaoyu did come back, but Qi Bai did not come back with her. Instead, like Wang Yu, he was also called to meet with the task force.
When they knocked on the door, Zhong Xiaoyu had just woken up. Her hair was messy and sloppily tied in a low ponytail. She was devouring a box of instant noodles, not even bothering to greet them. She quickly filled her stomach until it was half full, then wiped her mouth and said, "You're back. How are you? Did you gain anything?"
After briefly explaining the clues they had found today, Zhong Xiaoyu made a quick decision: "A physical examination? There's a chance we can get to the bottom of this. I'll go too. My last physical examination was over two years ago, and I haven't been able to attend since I started investigating my uncle's case. This time is a good opportunity, so I can kill two birds with one stone."
The decision was made so simply, and then Zhong Xiaoyu spoke excitedly, "What do you think? Is it possible that one of us could be matched and go undercover? The seller is dangerous, but the buyer isn't that dangerous, right? As long as we find the buyer and follow the clues, wouldn't we be able to find the core person?"
Guan Xia really didn't expect that Zhong Xiaoyu had such an adventurous spirit. She always felt that as soon as her uncle's case was over, she was like a tiger returning to the mountains, letting herself go too much.
Before Guan Xia could open her mouth to suppress her dangerous thoughts, Ji An said seriously, "The seller is dangerous, and the buyer is also dangerous. Just look at Yan Xingyu. In order to ensure the smooth transportation process, the kidnapped person will be put into a coma. Don't forget what the seller does. Such a large criminal organization also runs such a large medical examination center. It seems that getting anesthetics is not difficult. Maybe once you are knocked unconscious, there is no chance of waking up again. From the time you are transported to the time you are sent to the operating table, you must not have any luck."
Guan Xia felt Zhong Xiaoyu's eyes dim a little, and sighed, "Alright, alright, I get it. Let me be clear, I'm not taking any risks. It's just that when I was in the army, we always had clear objectives and never had to deal with unraveling things. But after I got discharged, I've been doing this kind of unraveling work for several years now. I really miss the days of handling guns and fighting flesh. I don't know when the task force will arrive and catch all those thugs in one fell swoop. I feel like my bones are rusting."
As Zhong Xiaoyu spoke, she jumped up from the sofa and stretched her limbs.
Pang Le's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he jumped off the bed. He raised his chin towards the door and asked, "Xu Nian and the others haven't come back yet, so they probably need a while to go to bed. Why don't we take advantage of this time to fight a few moves?"
Zhong Xiaoyu suddenly became excited. "Okay, okay, it's late at night and everyone is asleep. Let's go to the alley behind the hotel. I noticed it when I got here. It's a dead end alley, used by the hotel to store trash cans. No one usually uses it. The last time the hotel threw out trash was half an hour ago. I don't know how often they do that, but they definitely won't be out anytime soon. Let's go over there and have a fight now. It won't alert anyone."
Guan Xia couldn't help but sigh inwardly after listening to this. As expected of a member of the armed police, he would first understand the terrain before going anywhere. Most importantly, it really came in handy.
