After receiving the call, Bai Song and Wang Liang immediately went to Captain Zhao's office and even brought notebooks, pens and necessary equipment.
"Huh? Do you two know what happened?" Captain Zhao was a little nervous.
"I don't know." Bai Song shook his head quickly, "But you called us here so late, so there must be a big case."
"Yeah...that's right." Captain Zhao originally wanted to create some tension to stimulate the two new recruits, but he suddenly lost the feeling.
"A gold shop near the Wanghu Road Police Station was robbed. The criminal method was very professional. They managed to get away within two minutes after the alarm sounded. About 1,000 grams of gold and some diamonds were lost. Let's go and take a look." Captain Zhao lost interest in talking about the case.
There was no conversation along the way. This was supposed to be an exciting case...
Arriving at the scene, the three men's spirits quickly became tense.
Normally, this type of theft would happen in the middle of the night, but this time the theft happened after 10pm, when there were still pedestrians on the street.
So rampant? The crime was committed during this time period...
Three or four groups of people have already arrived at the scene. This gold shop is a small self-operated gold shop, not a chain store. The owner of the gold shop is also well-known near Wanghu Road. He is a famous "Brother Fang" and has more than a dozen storefronts. It can be said that he has a wealthy family.
Because of this, although the direct economic loss was estimated to be around 500,000, the boss Chen Yun did not panic too much and did not rush to the scene. He cooperated with the police to register and opened the door more than ten minutes ago.
The entire gold shop has only one main door, and it has been specially treated with an additional anti-theft door inside. The doors and windows of the gold shop were not damaged. After the theft, the internal alarm system automatically called the police. When the police arrived at the scene, the thief had already succeeded and left. Because it was past ten o'clock in the evening, there were still many people and cars on the street, and it would be meaningless to block the surrounding area after that.
This gold shop is located two kilometers away from the Wanghu Road Police Station. When the police arrived, the alarm had been sounding for seven or eight minutes.
The four teams arrived at the scene as soon as possible. When Bai Song and others arrived, Master Hao, Sun Jie, Wang Huadong and others were wearing gas masks and conducting an on-site investigation. Team Zhao and others were waiting outside. Although Sun Jie was a forensic doctor, he was also an investigator. They were all on duty today, so they came together.
"What's that smell in this building?" Bai Song smelled a very strong pungent odor, frowned, and saw the exhaust fan turned on.
"As soon as the fourth team arrived, they turned on the exhaust. There was a strong smell inside, as if the floor had been corroded through." said a police officer in the station.
"Corroded through?" Several people, including Captain Zhao, were stunned. Is there such a thing?
"Well, there was a hole in the roof of the first floor. The thief made a hole in the floor and came in to steal."
"What could possibly penetrate this floor? Isn't this reinforced concrete?"
…
Several people looked inside from the outside and could barely see the big hole in the roof.
On one side of the roof, you can see that a large hole with a diameter of more than half a meter has been exposed on the entire roof, and a large amount of concrete residue is dripping on the ground. The color is dark and it is not clear from this angle.
This big hole really looks scary, and there are some light fluctuations above. It is obvious that the upstairs has been controlled by the police, but the thief had already run away.
"Is it true that so much gold was lost?" Captain Zhao started chatting with a deputy director of the Wanghu Road Police Station.
"Almost. You may not know this boss surnamed Chen. He is very smart and has a good vision. He is not an ordinary person. He will not talk nonsense about such a matter of right and wrong, and there is no need to do so." Deputy Director Li said, "You have also seen the situation. The jewelry store was robbed, and the commotion was so loud. Even if a ring was lost, it is not a small matter."
"Yeah..." Captain Zhao nodded: "I've been working for 11 years, and I've never encountered a case of a gold shop being robbed."
"Don't mention you. I've been working for 23 years, and I haven't seen it. It was in the 1990s, I think it was 1997 or 1998. I remember a gold shop in Sanmu Street Police Station was robbed. At that time, only a few bracelets were stolen. Then the Municipal Bureau mobilized the whole city to block him and stop the robber." Li said: "The head of Sanmu Street Police Station at that time, now Director Tian, seems to have made a contribution."
Captain Zhao nodded. He had heard about this as well. What happened today was really difficult to deal with...
How could such a big thing happen on such a harmonious night?
After chatting for a few words, Captain Li also rushed over. When he heard the news, he rushed here immediately. After arriving at the scene, he quickly learned about the situation with Captain Zhao, and his expression was a little complicated.
It is not possible for someone to steal the gold from the gold shop so successfully. Captain Li had just taken office and it was really difficult for him to encounter such a thing. Captain Li quickly found the police from the police station on the scene and understood the situation in detail.
Soon, Political Commissar Yu and Director Ma also arrived.
This case has alarmed the director. Think about it, more than 1,300 grams of gold plus some diamonds, the value of the case is more than 500,000 yuan, which can buy a house in some older communities in Tianhua City. Moreover, in broad daylight, they just robbed the gold shop. Where can the Jiuhe Branch put their face?
"Who's inside?" Director Ma asked when he arrived.
"Team Four's Lao Hao and others." Captain Li said.
"What's going on upstairs?" Director Ma asked.
"The owner of the upstairs house has arrived, and our people have taken control of the scene upstairs. The house is rented out without a contract and has been rented out for more than two months. The monthly rent is 1,500 yuan, which is higher than the normal rent here. According to the owner, the tenant is a girl, about 20 years old, quite pretty." Captain Li thought for a moment and continued, "But from the video in the gold shop, the person who entered with a rope to steal things is a man."
Director Ma walked forward a few steps to the door of the gold shop, looked at the hole above, and said with an unchanged expression, "Can anyone tell me how this hole was created?"
"This..." Captain Li was not sure what was going on.
"It should be hydrofluoric acid. Basically, only high-concentration hydrofluoric acid can corrode silicon-containing compounds at such a speed." Seeing that no one was talking, Bai Song directly expressed his opinion.
"Hydrofluoric acid? Is this thing highly toxic?" Director Ma immediately paid attention to the health of the four police officers conducting the investigation inside.
"It's highly toxic, but it can be resisted with a self-priming filter gas mask. I see they are all wearing them, so it's no big deal." Bai Song said, "Director Ma, please step back."
"Okay. However, even if you have gas masks, evacuate the people first and then go back in after the smell has dissipated," Director Ma ordered.
