Chapter 1248 The heroes share the same views

"Contact the police department and conduct an investigation immediately. Hmm, I just had a chance to escape a few days ago, and I showed up again today. I'm really brave."

Zuo Zhong sneered, threw the fingerprint pattern and photo on the desk, and gave orders to Wu Chunyang.

At the beginning of the 20th century, as Western countries began to use fingerprints as identity authentication marks, previous dynasties also gradually introduced this technology.

In 1910, the previous government established the "Fingerprint Library" to collect and store various fingerprints and use them for criminal investigation and identification.

In the seventh year of the Republic of China, fingerprint registration was included in the first modern census of the Republic of China. After the government moved westward, fingerprint registration became a necessary part of household registration information.

As long as the suspect is not a gangster or comes to Chongqing from other places, the military commander can find the person through fingerprints.

But screening out suspects from tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people of appropriate age is a huge, time-consuming and labor-intensive project. Military commanders have more important work to do, so just leave this matter to Bai Wenzhi.

The government has worked hard to support them, so these gangsters can't just have free meals every day. In addition to bullying men and dominating women, the other side also has to do something serious.

Wu Chunyang understood what Zuo Zhong meant, picked up the fingerprint pattern and turned to leave. Unexpectedly, Zuo Zhong opened his mouth and asked two more questions.

"How is the investigation going with the disguised identity of deceased No. 2? Also, has anyone seen Yuan Chuyu in the restaurant near Central University?"

At the meeting after the incident, Zuo Zhong set five investigation routes. The two clues mentioned above and the search for more witnesses were all the work of one place.

"Deputy Chairman, Lao Wu is following up on these two matters. I heard they found some clues." Wu Chunyang replied.

Zuo Zhong waved his hand to let him go first, then picked up the phone and informed Wu Jingzhong to come to the headquarters to see him. How could he not report anything he found out?

I heard that the other party often goes to see his old classmate from Sun Yat-sen University recently. Who is this special girl? He has someone as a spare tire?

An hour later, Wu Jingzhong, who was sweating profusely, stood in front of his desk and explained with a panic look on his face: "Deputy Chairman, I want to verify the clues before reporting to you. I am definitely not hiding anything intentionally."

"Oh? How's the verification going?" Zuo Zhong looked at the other party and struck lightly.

Wu Jingzhong wiped the sweat from his forehead, bent his waist at ninety degrees, and reported respectfully.

"The humble job led people to investigate 44 factories, 3 docks, and 7 warehouses near Shuangxi Gou. They interviewed more than 300 people, and finally got a clue in a warehouse.

The appearance of deceased No. 2 was highly similar to that of a porter named Xu Banzi. This man was from Shaanxi Province. He was 33 years old and single. He claimed that his wife and children died at the hands of the Japanese.

We searched his residence and found an unfired Browning pistol bullet in the corner. The mark on the bottom of the bullet was the same batch number as the bullet casing remaining at the pursuit scene.

The Shaanxi Provincial Station conducted external investigations and verified that this person did exist in the local area, but he had died of illness as early as the 18th year of the Republic of China. The warehouse owner also identified Xu Banzi as the No. 2 deceased.

According to the investigation, the other party's social relationship in Chongqing is very simple. His warehouse companions have never seen him have contact with strangers. However, he lives alone and no one knows what he does after get off work.

Investigators asked Xu’s neighbors, and they all said that Xu’s life was very tight, which was consistent with the conclusion drawn at the meeting that the suspect lacked funds for his activities. "

After talking about the situation of deceased No. 2, Wu Jingzhong did not stop and continued to report the second incident.

"The brothers secretly inquired about the restaurants within a three-kilometer radius of the school. No one, including the waiters, regular customers, and bosses, has seen Yuan Chuyu. As for other restaurants in the city, it will take some time to investigate."

Zuo Zhong was lost in thought. Yuan Chuyu told his dormitory friends to go out for dinner, but no one saw him in the restaurants near the school. There are many possibilities for this, and there is no way to determine the specific reason.

In this case, we might as well skip this problem first and break the situation in another direction. Yuan Chuyu can't be found, so where is the person who met him?

Now the military commander has a lot of cards in his hand. In addition to the photos of deceased No. 1 and No. 2, there are also photos of suspicious people who appeared in Yuan's house.

Although the last photo is not very clear, as long as these cards are connected in the right place, they can still be used to maximum effect.

Zuo Zhong had an idea and looked up at Wu Jingzhong: "Old Wu, there is also progress in Chunyang. One of the suspects who escaped that day went to Yuan's house. Unfortunately, he escaped by this guy. Let's call him suspect No. 3 for now.

You can show the photos of deceased No. 1, deceased No. 2 and suspect No. 3 to the restaurant owners, waiters and regular customers to identify them again. If they have never seen Yuan Chuyu, it does not mean they have never seen the suspect. "

Wu Jingzhong reacted. Generally speaking, exposed intelligence personnel should evacuate immediately, or at least enter a latent state. However, suspect No. 3 did the opposite. What does this mean?

This shows that the enemy probably only has four people. After the pursuit, the opponent now has no one available, so they can only take the risk of sending out suspect No. 3.

If Yuan Chuyu went to the restaurant with anyone on the day he disappeared, these four people were the most likely. Wu Jingzhong immediately resigned and arranged for his subordinates to conduct a second round of questioning. Anyway, it didn’t cost any money to try.

Maybe it was luck. Not long after, the field staff reported back a message that someone had seen suspect No. 3 in a certain hotel!

After receiving the news, Wu Jingzhong immediately redid the report to Zuo, rushed to the scene without stopping, and interviewed the witnesses in the back kitchen of the hotel.

"Your identity?"

"cook."

"Are you sure you have seen the person we are looking for?"

"Yes, sir, I must have read that correctly."

"Tell me about the situation at that time."

Wu Jingzhong took back the photos and mock portraits with a very serious expression. Seeing his appearance, the cook opposite stuttered and recalled. "That evening, the man in the photo came to the shop and ordered a table of food. I was worried that the customer had any taboos, so I chatted with him for a few words before cooking. The food was ready at a quarter past five o'clock, and he left with his suitcase. "

Wu Jingzhong frowned and understood why no one had seen Yuan Chuyu. It turned out that he didn't eat in a restaurant. Then he asked another question.

"What did you say then?"

The cook racked his brains and thought for a long time, then said tremblingly: "I asked him what his taboos were, and he said no. I also said that the food would not taste right if it was cold. He said that his home was not far from the hotel, and he would be back at a quarter past five. It’s just right, you can eat it when the guests arrive, it won’t be in the way.”

"Stop, he said personally that his home is not far from the hotel and that guests can eat when they arrive?" Wu Jingzhong grasped a key piece of information.

The cook nodded. It had just been a few days, and he was sure that he remembered it correctly.

Wu Jingzhong paced back and forth in the room. On the day Yuan Chuyu disappeared, the lowest temperature in the mountain city was 9 degrees Celsius. There was strong wind all day long. Even if there was a suitcase to keep it warm, the food would get cold in more than 15 minutes.

It was also around 5:15 when Yuan Chuyu left school and finished delivering the letters.

Based on the analysis of the sentence "Guests can eat when they arrive", Yuan Chuyu's journey from the post office to the location of suspect No. 3 is also within 15 minutes.

Based on the above information, it can be seen that at 5:15 that day, suspect No. 3 took the food home, and Yuan Chuyu put the letter in the mailbox. Before 5:30, the two met at a place to eat. At that time, the food was still hot. The timeline matched.

How far can a normal person walk in 15 minutes?

The answer is 800 to 1500 meters!

Putting aside Yuan Chuyu's pace, suspect No. 3 couldn't run fast with the suitcase, as that would only attract unnecessary attention.

Then could the other party leave in a mountain sedan? Or is it impossible? It would be too conspicuous to carry a suitcase in a mountain sedan.

As for cars…

Wu Jingzhong shook his head. If the other party had a car, there would be no need to buy food near Central University. Wouldn't it be safer to go elsewhere?

In other words, the post office is 1.5 kilometers away from the location of suspect No. 3, and the hotel is 1.5 kilometers from the location of suspect No. 3, and the post office and the hotel are not in the same direction.

Thinking clearly about this, Wu Jingzhong ordered people to find a map of the mountain city, a steel ruler and a compass. After calculation, he drew a circle around the hotel and the post office. The area where the two circles overlapped included two residential areas, a school and three The agency's headquarters is where Suspect No. 3 settled.

"I'm afraid tens of thousands of people are involved."

Wu Jingzhong looked at the map and sighed in a low voice, then laughed at himself. Having a clear direction is better than finding a needle in a haystack. As long as the suspect can be caught, not to mention tens of thousands, even if it is twice as many, he will have to investigate.

Moreover, the mountain city is the territory of the government after all. You don't have to worry too much about doing things on your own territory. If it doesn't work, you can still send out the army. The enemy will not be able to escape this time.

Thinking that the other party would implicate him and be blamed by the deputy director, Wu Jingzhong pulled out his gun and slammed it on the table with murderous intent on his face.

News that Suspect No. 3's foothold was discovered soon spread back to Luojiawan. After learning about it, Zuo Zhong called Gu Qi to assign the other party a task.

"Lao Gu, you will direct the search work at Lao Wu. I will let the Police Department and the Garrison Command fully cooperate with you. I have only one request, and the actions must be concealed.

The military can only set up controls outside. Our people and the police enter in the name of household registration. The disguise must be good. At that time, other areas in the city will also move to protect you. "

Gu Qi thought about it for a while. In order to drive away refugees and track down underground parties, the police in the mountain city often visited homes for registration and inspection. It would not be conspicuous if they came more than once.

Besides, the enemy didn't know that he had been exposed yet, so they could just catch the opponent off guard. Thinking of this, he nodded slightly and made a statement.

"Okay, deputy, I will remind the brothers that after the operation begins, everyone will wear civilian clothes and police uniforms to operate, and work in groups of three to supervise each other to ensure that the information is not leaked."

"kindness…"

Zuo Zhong replied softly, and after a few seconds of silence, he suddenly spoke: "The first department discovered that Yuan Chuyu secretly listened to and recorded the Red Russian Radio, and the second department also found out that the other party had a deposit of 20,000 US dollars.

Chunyang speculates that Yuan Chuyu may have cracked some encrypted information and used this secret to blackmail people who should not have been offended. Lao Gu, do you think this inference is reliable? "

Gucci did not answer immediately. After careful consideration, he gave a different opinion.

"I have read the file, and I basically agree with Yuan Chuyu's decryption of the encrypted information, otherwise I cannot explain the other party's abnormal behavior.

But blackmail is a technical job. Even if Yuan Chuyu really cracked the encrypted information, who would he blackmail, the consulates of other countries? This is unrealistic.

I prefer that the suspect contacted Yuan Chuyu first, because it is difficult for a student to be related to a spy, even if he may have extraordinary talent in deciphering.

How did the suspect know that Yuan Chuyu knew how to decipher? Deputy, this is the key to the problem. There must be an informant of the suspect around the target.

It was the other party who disclosed some information about Yuan Chuyu to the suspect, which triggered what happened next. I think Yuan Chuyu's friend Fang Quan is very suspicious.

The people questioned at Central University have all said that this person is the best friend of Yuan Chuyu. If Yuan has any secrets, Fang Quan is most likely to know. "

Hearing Gu Qi's words, Zuo Zhong laughed heartily. The other party's thoughts were exactly the same as his.

The Republic of China was different from later generations. If later generations wanted to know anything, they could search online. However, in this era, information and class were quite limited. With Yuan Chuyu’s social connections, it was impossible to know people or forces who could give 20,000 US dollars. There must be something wrong with this matter. External influence.

Patting Gu Qi's arm, Zuo Zhong said with a smile: "We are heroes and see the same thing. I have ordered a strict investigation of Yuan Chuyu's classmates and teachers, um, especially Fang Quan and the mathematics professor."

Never hold grudges Zuo Shen finally got up and walked to the window to look to the west. He had a feeling that this case was going to be broken.
