Baisong's speed was a little fast, but it was still safe.
It is normal to drive a police car faster when catching a murder suspect, but the three junior brothers and sisters in the car were too excited and the car still felt slow.
"Let me say this again, this kind of thing cannot be posted in the class group," Bai Song reminded Yang Lu as he watched her playing with her mobile phone.
He was not worried about Wang Di and Liu Lifeng, but he was still a little concerned about his junior sister Yang Lu.
Yang Lu knew he was talking about her, and immediately showed her phone: "Brother, I'm chatting with Yan Yu."
"Why hasn't she slept yet?" Bai Song was speechless.
"She was sleeping, and she said she suddenly dreamed of something key to solving the case, and then she woke up suddenly," Yang Lu said, "She said she dreamed of the real cause of death of the woman yesterday."
"Is this true?" Bai Song smiled: "What did she say?"
"..." Yang Lu looked at the phone and was stunned for seven or eight seconds: "Brother, she said that the woman was insulted before she died."
"No trace of cyanide was detected in the body," Bai Song said, "and this is not necessary, right?"
After saying this, Bai Song thought for a moment and said, "But if safety measures are used, it is normal that no test results can be detected in the body. So, where did she come up with this inference?"
"Who knows? She got it in her dream," Yang Lu said, "and she went back to sleep."
After saying that, Yang Lu put the phone away.
"Okay," Bai Song said, "This Yan Yu is really a god. What kind of spirit is this?"
"She is indeed a little bit unusual." Yang Lu thought for a while and said, "Brother, Yan Yu...well...she is not ordinary anyway."
"There is something behind your words, but... well, sometimes I dream when I'm working on a case, but I never get too many clues from my dreams, and sometimes they're full of interference," Bai Song said, thinking about the dreams he had had while working on a case over the years.
We didn’t continue talking about this, but Bai Song really felt a little confused.
Who would wake up from a dream an hour after lying down after a night of sleeplessness? It is almost unrealistic.
After staying up late, the body is in a very tired state. If you fall asleep in this situation, you are really asleep. If you can wake up at any time, then this person is more or less suffering from neurasthenia.
How could he be so seriously ill at such a young age? Bai Song thought of this, sighed, and concentrated on driving.
The navigation took us to Tianbei District. Bai Song was familiar with the road conditions in the vicinity. He looked at the specific location of the destination community, turned off the navigation, and drove towards that area.
On the way, Bai Song called Liu Shuyuan.
Shu Yuan was originally from the Tianbei Branch, and he was more familiar with the place. Soon after he explained everything to him, Shu Yuan arranged some things. When Bai Song arrived at his destination, the captain of the criminal police detachment here contacted Bai Song directly and said that he could provide more support.
"Captain Guan, we don't need more people here. We just want to contact you in advance. If anything happens on my side, I know who to find more conveniently." Bai Song said.
"Director Bai, you are too polite. Going back to Tianhua is like going back to your own home. Not to mention looking for our branch detachment, even if you go to the Municipal Bureau, it will definitely be the same." Detachment Guan obviously knew who Bai Song was and spoke very politely.
Although he was polite, Bai Song still did not use his personal connections to call people over. He called mainly because he was worried about other situations. After a few polite words with Guan Detachment, Bai Song went directly to Lou Detachment.
Bai Song's driving speed was still a bit conservative. The reinforcements from the East City Criminal Investigation Detachment and the police station had already arrived and started the search.
Not all of the surveillance cameras in this community are broken. Some are still usable. It has been confirmed that the person is in Building No. 2.
There are four units in Building No. 2, each with three households, six floors, and a total of 72 households.
The reinforcements brought some equipment that could detect whether there was anyone in the house. Although it could not achieve perfect wall-penetrating effect, it could still detect if there was someone at the door.
Once there is someone behind the door but they don't open it, then there will be a big problem with the house and Team Lou will plan to break down the door.
I talked with Captain Lou, and they told me that they have already searched one building, and there are still eight households that are under suspicion.
The questionable situation is when there is no one in the house and the door cannot be opened by knocking. In this case, every household has placed a small device outside the door, and the police will know as long as the door is opened.
We are currently checking Unit 2 of Building 3, and Team Leader Lou is standing downstairs.
"Haven't you found the person yet?" Bai Song asked Captain Lou.
"No, I suspect they don't dare to open the door," said Captain Lou. "There are always some houses that are truly empty. Let's not rush. Let's wait until night. It is estimated that only the house they are hiding in will be empty. When there is only one house left, we can break in and stop waiting."
"Well," Bai Song said, "we do have plenty of police force."
Bai Song was chatting here, and Wang Di and the others were getting anxious. They wanted to knock on the door and start investigating right away, but when they saw Bai Song chatting with Team Lou here, they didn't dare to say anything more.
This location is between two buildings, so the view is good and you can see the parked cars. Team Lou chose this place because of the good view.
But Bai Song was not staring at this side all the time. He was also looking at Building No. 4 and Building No. 5 on the other side.
Bai Song's idea was not as optimistic as Lou's. He was worried that this person might have gone somewhere else.
"Are you worried that he went to the other four buildings?" Team Leader Lou said confidently, "That's impossible. There is a camera at the entrance of the community. After seeing the driver drive over, the car never left. Besides, Shao Damu didn't leave from that place."
"Is the camera clear enough? Is it possible for Shao Damu to change his clothes and go out?"
"We were keeping an eye on him the whole time. We were chasing him very closely. There weren't many cameras when he was in Yanjiao, but Tianhua was quite capable and provided adequate support. The time difference between us and him was very short, and we controlled the entrances and exits of the community as soon as we arrived here. He couldn't get away."
"Yeah," Bai Song nodded, "I'll go around."
Bai Song was wearing plain clothes at this time, and he walked around the area with his fellow junior brothers and sisters who were also wearing plain clothes.
There is a wall between the two buildings, and Bai Song wants to see if there is any way to climb over it.
"Brother, are we really not going up?" Wang Di asked after walking more than ten meters.
"Why go up there? There are so many of them now. Even if we catch them, it won't be our credit, but the credit of the Lou Detachment. And it won't look good."
"Then it's true..." Wang Di was really a little anxious, but when he looked at his senior brother's expression, he found that his senior brother was really not anxious. He became calmer and followed Bai Song to check carefully.
Captain Lou couldn't help but look down on Bai Song as he watched him inspect. He had already done this kind of inspection a long time ago, so how could he not have considered such a thing? However, when he saw that Bai Song not only inspected the walls, but also every trash can and sewer, he couldn't help but put away his contempt.
Bai Song checked every sewer opening. There was no need to go down and take a look. In these old communities, the sewers would not be opened for a long time. It would be enough to just check if there were any traces.
After checking everything, Bai Song was sure that this person would not leave through this place, so he looked at the car.
This is a Mercedes-Benz S400 sedan. It would be a bit odd to see such a car parked in this residential area. After checking the car and finding no problems, Bai Song then turned his attention to the unit corresponding to the car.
Logically speaking, if Shao Damu had no anti-reconnaissance awareness, this unit would be the most likely candidate. And this unit had already been checked, with people in every household, and it was confirmed that there were no outsiders.
This made Bai Song very confused. He didn't plan to look for it directly like this, because according to common sense, it should be in the unit corresponding to the car. There are parking spaces in other places, so there must be a reason for parking here.
When Bai Song returned to the Lou Detachment, both buildings had been checked. Except for 17 households where no one was home, nothing else was found.
Through the community police, the contact information of these 17 households was found. Because of the need for investigation, the Lou Detachment called all these people back. Except for three households that could not be contacted, the others expressed their willingness to cooperate with the police.
Bai Song was still staying nearby, and the people contacted by Lou's detachment went back one after another. About an hour later, all the people in these 14 households came back, opened the door and let the police check to make sure that there was no one hiding in the house.
During this time, the police in Tianbei District found a way to contact two more households, and by the afternoon, they had also checked these two households. The only household left that could not be found was No. 502, Unit 1, Building 2.
"It must be here," Team Leader Lou said excitedly, "Let's go up and knock on the door. If that doesn't work, we'll just break it in."
Bai Song stood on the fourth floor. The fifth floor was full of police officers. The neighbors didn't dare to come out to see, as they all knew that the police were going to arrest someone.
There were more than a dozen people standing here, but Captain Lou still asked everyone to disperse a little because they were worried that Shao Damu might have weapons, so the people in front all wore bulletproof vests.
No matter how hard they knocked, no one was inside. The equipment also confirmed that no one was in the building. Captain Lou said, "Unlock the door."
Some of the people who came this time have professional lock-picking skills. It has to be said that the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the East City Branch is full of talents.
While this person was unlocking the door, the device always showed that there was no one at the door.
"Too many people is useless," Bai Song said to several junior brothers and sisters, "Let's just go to the third floor and wait. We can charge again if necessary."
Bai Song didn't want to join in the fun. The entrance was so narrow, and rushing in wouldn't rely on numbers. The more people there were, the more likely problems would arise.
Because he brought his junior brothers and sisters with him, he had to make the worst plan. What if the people inside had a bomb? It was too dangerous for his junior brothers and sisters to not even have bulletproof vests.
The locksmith upstairs was very efficient. In less than a minute, the door was opened and it was not locked.
The commandos in front rushed straight in.
The situation inside was different from what everyone imagined.
No one!
This is just like the homes of those people we just checked. There is no one in this room, and there are not many traces.
They are all professional criminal police, there is no such thing as someone hiding and cannot be found.
Captain Lou could accept an armed conflict but could not accept such an outcome. He went into the house and looked around, only to find that there was indeed no one there!
Open the door, wrong way!
He couldn't help but be thankful that he didn't break the door, but even so it still had a certain impact on the residents of this household. Team Lou was somewhat helpless and asked everyone to evacuate, and then asked the locksmith to lock the house again.
After going downstairs, Captain Lou was a little distraught and said to the local criminal police: "If this family needs compensation, our East City Branch can bear it."
After saying this, Team Leader Lou was out of energy. He looked at the two buildings and it seemed that every window was laughing at him.
"Inspector Bai, I'm sorry to make you laugh." It was only then that Captain Lou realized that Bai Song had not searched any room from beginning to end, and thought that Bai Song had known something in advance.
"I've been here for more than two hours. It's nothing. I hope I can help, but under the current circumstances, Shao Damu is still a little interesting." Bai Song said, "But this just shows that he is highly suspicious."
"There is no definite evidence to prove that he is the murderer. This is all we can find out now. If we lose him, we will be in real trouble." Team Leader Lou looked around and asked, "Inspector Bai, do you have any good suggestions?"
"We have no choice but to retreat. Leave a few people here to continue investigating, and the rest of us will continue to take other routes." Bai Song said, "Especially the surveillance cameras nearby. We need to keep checking them."
Bai Song was a little unsure about what he said.
It has been four hours since the Lou Detachment followed us. Four hours is really too long. It will be much more difficult to track and monitor them further.
At this point, Bai Song looked at the Mercedes-Benz in the yard and said, "This person is a major suspect. The car must be confiscated."
"Ah?" Although the Lou detachment had just spoken confidently to the police in Tianhua, it was still a bit of a headache. There was no suspect in this family, just an ordinary family. Just because they were forced into their home without being contacted by the police, it was normal for them to want compensation. Now there was no direct evidence to prove that Shao Damu was the murderer, so they just confiscated the car worth more than 1 million yuan...
What if Shao Damu really is not the murderer and comes back to look for the car? What should I say?
"Team Lou," Bai Song said, "Shao Damu is definitely involved in this matter. Even if he didn't kill the person, he must know something, otherwise he wouldn't have done what he did today. You just ordered the door to be unlocked and the house to investigate. To be honest, if I were the leader, I might not have done a better job. There is nothing wrong with this."
"But this car..." Captain Lou glanced at Bai Song and gritted his teeth: "It will be confiscated. I will find a tow truck and take the car to the place where the East City Branch specially stores confiscated vehicles."
"It's okay," Bai Song said seriously, "I seized the car. If there was a problem, the wrong car was seized. The relevant expenses will be paid by the Criminal Investigation Bureau."
Captain Lou felt very warmed after hearing this, but did not respond to Bai Song's words and directly contacted the tow truck.
