Chapter 140 A Perfect Plan
Jiang Biao opened the car door and a strong smell of smoke hit him in the face, making him cough.
"Ahem, Captain Wu, Zhou Yi is right. You really should smoke less."
In the car, Wu Yongcheng was holding a cigarette butt in his mouth and studying the map of Hongcheng with the help of the light inside the car.
"There are not enough police force. There are no checkpoints in many places." Wu Yongcheng muttered to himself.
As soon as Jiang Biao sat in the car, the car suddenly sank.
Wu Yongcheng finally reacted and looked up and asked, "Biaozi, what did you just say?"
"I say, you really need to smoke less. It's bad for your health."
"That's easy to say. At my age, how can I stay awake without smoking?"
Jiang Biao handed over a thermos cup: "I've prepared some hot water, take a couple of sips to warm yourself up."
Then he added, "You can have some coffee. I see a can of coffee on Chen Yan's desk."
Wu Yongcheng shook his head and said, "No, that stuff is as bitter as medicine. I can't drink it. Besides, my prostate is not in good condition. I will feel suffocated easily if I drink too much water."
Wu Yongcheng opened the thermos, took a sip, screwed it shut again and gave it back to Jiang Biao.
"How is it? Are there any results from the investigation?" Wu Yongcheng asked.
Jiang Biao shook his head. "Captain Wu, this manual interrogation method is not only arduous but also inefficient. We don't have enough police force. I heard that the provincial capital and the big cities in the south now have surveillance cameras installed on the roads. There's no need for people to squat at intersections. They can just stare at the screen from inside."
"It's free to install surveillance? Who will pay for it? The city or the province?" Wu Yongcheng continued to study the map with his head down.
"I've heard that some people in the city live a life of luxury, spending public funds on food and drink and going on overseas inspections. But when you ask them to do something practical for the people, they start complaining about having no money and crying poor. Damn it..."
"Biaozi, be careful of the impact and don't forget that we are police officers." Wu Yongcheng reminded.
"Captain Wu, look at you. You're still squatting at the intersection with us in the middle of the night, looking miserable. You don't look like a deputy captain at all."
"Hey, what are you saying? Just because I'm the deputy captain doesn't mean I can't work on the front lines? Besides, the grassroots police officers are all suffering on the front lines, so what's wrong with me working with my brothers?"
Jiang Biao said with dissatisfaction, "Look at that guy named Ni. Does he come to the front line to endure hardships? He eats lavishly every day, either drinking with this big boss or dining with that leader."
"Biaozi." Wu Yongcheng looked up at Jiang Biao and said, "If you don't have evidence, don't say such things in the future."
"I……"
Wu Yongcheng said seriously, "If Ni Jianrong heard this, he'd have a hundred ways to make you pay, and every one of them would have a legal basis. From a minor disciplinary action to a serious one, suspension. Do you think this momentary verbal pleasure is worth it?"
"Captain Wu, I... I just can't stand him. You said you were leading the charge and working hard all day, but in the end, all the credit went to him. This... is so unfair."
"Biaozi, do you know your shortcomings?"
Wu Yongcheng said earnestly, "You have a lot of gangster spirit in you, and you clearly distinguish between love and hate. This is not a bad thing, it shows that you are a person with a true character. But people with a true character are easily taken advantage of and used as pawns. Do you understand?"
Jiang Biao nodded. He was convinced by Wu Yongcheng's words.
Wu Yongcheng continued, "As criminal police, we need to remain calm and collected. We need to detach ourselves from our emotions while handling cases. Only in this way can we handle cases objectively and fairly, without being swayed by our emotions."
"Of course, this doesn't mean we have to become cold-blooded, heartless investigation machines, but we do need to strike the right balance. For example, in the Zhang Hui case, Zhou Yi was briefly overcome with emotion after learning about Xu Xinxin's situation. This is perfectly normal; any normal person would feel immensely angry. But after the anger subsided, he was able to grasp the key point and use this as an entry point to break through the suspect's psychological defenses and proceed to interrogation. This is the correct approach."
Wu Yongcheng patted Jiang Biao on the shoulder and said, "Biaozi, your professional and fighting abilities are beyond reproach, but if you want to take on the responsibility, you still lack something."
Jiang Biao smiled innocently and said, "Captain Wu, I've never thought about taking on any major responsibility. I just want to be your fist. Wherever you point, I'll hit you. I'm not very smart, and I know that. So I'll be the fist and you can be the brain."
Wu Yongcheng was stunned for a moment, a hint of relief flashed in his eyes, he smiled and said nothing.
Suddenly, the radio on the control console began to crackle, and then Qiao Jiali's voice rang out: "Captain Wu, Captain Wu, this is Xiao Qiao."
Wu Yongcheng immediately picked up the radio and replied, "Xiao Qiao, is there anything going on?"
"Captain Wu, Zhou Yi, and Chen Yan have captured Sun Kun and are currently conducting a surprise interrogation."
This made Wu Yongcheng and Jiang Biao cheer up, "Great, we will come back now."
"Biaozi, let the brothers who set up the checkpoint withdraw first and go back to rest."
Jiang Biao nodded, took out his radio and began to make arrangements.
Wu Yongcheng stepped on the accelerator and rushed into the darkness. The smoke in the car dissipated in the night.
…
"Name."
"Sun Kun."
"age."
"Fifty."
In the interrogation room, Zhou Yi was interrogating Sun Kun, while Chen Yan was interrogating the prostitute who was brought back with him in another interrogation room next door.
After capturing Sun Kun, they also found a van nearby and brought it back.
"Do you know why we arrested you?" Zhou Yi asked with a gloomy face.
Sun Kun nodded, "I know, it's...prostitution."
"Bang—" Zhou Yi slammed the table and said harshly, "Why are you pretending to be stupid with me?"
"Ah?" Sun Kun's face was filled with confusion and a hint of fear.
"Where is the money?"
The three words "Qian Lailai" made Sun Kun tremble all over, and he looked at Zhou Yi with horror.
"What...what kind of money? I...I don't know."
"Still pretending? You think we can find you? Don't you know what you've done? Sun Kun, I'm warning you. You should know the consequences of stubbornly resisting and refusing to confess. You're a teacher after all."
When Sun Kun heard the word "teacher", a trace of guilt appeared on his face.
"Qian Lailai is only seven years old, and accidents could happen at any time. Kidnapping and kidnapping resulting in death are two completely different things. You'd better think carefully and don't harbor any luck."
Sun Kun swallowed his saliva and asked cautiously, "Can... can I have a glass of water?"
Zhou Yi knew that Sun Kun was about to speak.
I immediately poured him a glass of water.
After drinking the water, Sun Kun's face twitched and he asked, "Can I ask first how you guys caught me so quickly? I thought my plan was flawless."
