Detective From the Future

Chapter 26: Case in case.



Han Bin thought for a moment and then said: "Captain Zhang, what should we do if we can't find Sun Qifeng?"

"Sun Qifeng got out of the car and couldn't go far," Zhang Ping said.

"What if he's dead?" Han Bin said.

"Death!" Zhang Ping was a little surprised.

"How is it possible?" Li Hui asked in surprise.

"I'm saying just in case," Han Bin said.

"You mean, Sun Qifeng's accomplices could kill him," Zhang Ping said.

"Think about it another way, if you are Sun Qifeng's accomplice and Sun Qifeng is known to the police right now, but no one knows your existence, what are you going to do?" Han Bin said.

Zhang Ping's forehead pressed a word from Sichuan Province, a province in southwest China that contains a stretch of Asia's longest river, the Yangtze, and also the giant pandas' region, and muttered: "Kill Sun Qifeng, that's a hundred percent sure."

"You can also collect all the stolen money on your own," Li Hui said.

"I think Sun Qifeng's accomplices had planned from the start to make him a scapegoat. All the clues point to him. Once he is dead, no matter how hard the police search, he will be unfound," Han Bin said.

"If you can't find Sun Qifeng, this matter becomes unsolved and no one can ever find the culprits," Zhang Ping said.

"Of course, that's just a guess," Han Bin said.

"If we want to solve this case, we have to find Sun Qifeng," Li Hui said.

"But the direction of the search is different. Now all the police are looking for the living Sun Qifeng, and what we need to look for is the dead Sun Qifeng," Han Bin said.

"Although it's just a guess, we can't drop any clues. That way the search team doesn't miss you both. Here we stare at each other in two search groups to catch the suspect. Two follow Han Bin's idea and go to find out, and Tian Li and I will form the second group and continue our research on the other side," said Zhang Ping.

"What is Captain Zheng going to say there?"

"I will talk to Captain Zheng, he will definitely agree," Zhang Ping said.

"Yes. Captain,"

......

With Zhang Ping's approval, Han Bin and Li Hui left the research team and began to deal with the case on their own.

"Teammate Bin, where to start the investigation now?" Li Hui said.

"The research team is looking for the living, so let's look for the dead," Han Bin said.

"Do you think Sun Qifeng who is most likely to be the thief is killed?" Li Hui said.

"At ten o'clock the night the day before yesterday, surveillance at the Huilongguan community gate clearly showed that the driver was Sun Qifeng. In other words, he was indeed involved in the case and was not dead at the time," Han Bin said.

"Sun Qifeng and his comrades committed the crime the night before. They were able to run away immediately after committing the crime. However, they waited one day and escaped the next night. It's a bit intriguing," Li Hui said.

"It is not difficult to explain. They also waited to see if the police could find the trace of the van. If the police do not find it, it will be difficult to find Sun Qifeng, but it is not necessary to escape. Sun Qifeng may be undead at this point," Han Bin said.

"It seems that Sun Qifeng's accomplice always thought of a little friendship," Li Hui said.

"It is not necessarily a matter of friendship. If the police cannot find the trace of the van and Sun Qifeng is killed by his accomplice, it will be easy to get rid of the van. If the police have found the trace of the van is like adding cream to the cake and the accomplices will get into trouble," Han Bin said.

"According to this inference, the time Sun Qifeng was killed should be after he was wanted by us," Li Hui said.

"Let's go to the traffic police monitoring center to see if a photo of the driver was taken last night," Han Bin said.

"Yes, how did I forget this?" Li Hui smiled.

......

Zhao Ming stayed at the traffic police monitoring center the entire time, checking the recordings of the constant line cameras and the recordings of the road surveillance cameras around Dazhang village to see if there were any suspicious vehicles and traces of Sun Qifeng. Suddenly there was a muffled sound.

"Crack..."

Han Bin and Li Hui opened the door and entered.

"Brother Bin, why are you here?" Zhao Ming said with surprise.

"Am I not welcome?"

"Are you not on the constant line road, looking for the suspect?" Zhao Ming said.

"There are a lot of people there, we have come to investigate other clues," Han Bin said.

"What clues?"

"You picked up the surveillance video of the suspect's van last night, and we want to watch it from start to finish," Han Bin said.

"Did you find any other new clues?"

"We suspect Sun Qifeng may have an accomplice, and he was the one who drove the van last night," Han Bin said.

"I understand." Zhao Ming stayed in the monitoring room for a long time, and the operation became more efficient. He quickly adjusted the surveillance camera recording of the suspect's van.

He found a few recordings captured from relatively long distances, from where he could take pictures of the driver's cabin, but he could not take pictures of the back row.

"The driver was wearing a peaked cap and put on the sun visor, and the image was a little blurry, so I couldn't see what he looked like at all," Zhao Ming said.

"This pointed cap looks like the one on the passenger seat," Li Hui said.

"Keep scrolling the video," Han Bin said.

The three people watched the video again but still could not identify the driver's face.

"Damn it!" Li Hui was a little upset. He thought it was a clue, but it was a shame the suspect was prepared.

Han Bin did get undiscouraged and watched the entire recording again. Then he looked at it a third time.

After seeing it, Han Bin touched his chin, showing a thoughtful look.

"Li Hui, how long does it take from the intersection of Qiming Road and Kaiping Street to the intersection of Constant Line and Dazhang Village?"

"It's about an hour, what's wrong?" Li Hui asked puzzled.

"The suspicious vehicle spent an hour and a half from the intersection of Qiming Road and Kaiping Street to the intersection of Constant Line and Dazhang Village," Han Bin said.

"He drove so slowly, is he a novice who doesn't know how to drive?" Zhao Ming said.

"It is very likely that it was not the same driver who was driving the car. Sun Qifeng had been checked before that," Li Hui guessed.

"I watched the surveillance video the second time and thought so, but when I watched it the third time, there were new findings," Han Bin said.

"What did you find?"

"From the intersection of Qiming Road and Kaiping Street to the intersection of Constant Line and Dazhang Village, there are about ten surveillance cameras, and the distances between the surveillances are similar. It goes without saying that the time between each time surveillance video recording should be similar. "

Han Bin pointed to the surveillance video and continued: "Actually, it's almost the same as I guessed. Most of the shots are done at 5-minute, 6-minute, and 7-minute intervals. There is only one video recording is taken after a full 40-minute interval."

"Such a long time is enough to kill someone and bury the corpse," Li Hui said.

"You think Sun Qifeng was killed at this interval!" Zhao Ming said with surprise.

"Is he killed? Let's go to the scene to see if it's true?" Han Bin said.

"What are we waiting for? Let's hurry," Li Hui urged.

Dozens of police searched for Sun Qifeng in the mountain and forest, one more minute wasted and one more police force was wasted.

"Wait for me, I will go too, I will go too!" Zhao Ming joined them, and he no longer wanted to stay here and watch the videos.
