Chapter 24: Battle of Wits 1

~8 min read 1,485 words

Everyone was extremely excited to hear Gu Changzheng's words! They all looked at him with expectation.

Gu Changzheng stood up and said slowly: "Liu Han, let the mobile phone signal in a certain urban area, I mean regardless of China Unicom or China Mobile, lose signal in a short time. Can this be done?"

Liu Han and the police officer in charge of tracking looked at each other and nodded, waiting for Gu Changzheng to continue.

"Liu Baoshan's agreed time is 30 minutes later, and the money must appear at the Jiangbei Dock. There are only two ways for him to confirm this: one is to go to the scene in person, and the other is to confirm through a mobile phone video that the money is packed in the boxes according to his requirements. It is definitely impossible for him to go to the scene in person, so there is only one way: through a mobile phone video. We now contact the heads of the China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Telecom departments to shield the communication signals in the Shadao District, Jiangdong District, Jiangnan District, and Qinghe District sequentially during the time we require. It is now 0:05 AM on the 6th. Coordinate with the communication departments immediately. According to the order I said, starting at 29 minutes, based on the four administrative regions, shield the mobile communication signals one by one for one minute!"

After hearing Gu Changzheng's order, Liu Han was stunned for a while, then suddenly said happily: "Understood! I will communicate with the three major operators immediately!"

Gu Changzheng smiled slightly and continued: "President Liu, the Iveco car..."

Before Gu Changzheng finished speaking, a young man in his 20s beside Liu Dan interrupted: "Captain Gu, the company has the car. I have already asked the driver to drive it over. It's outside the door. You haven't decided who will drive the car, right? Can I drive it?"

It was Jiang Xiao, Jiang Yuanqi's son, who spoke. Gu Changzheng understood his feelings, but still refused him without hesitation: "The car has already been arranged for someone to drive. You stay with your mother. She needs you more now. Leave the rest to us! Don't worry!"

After speaking, he came to the door. A white Iveco was already parked at the entrance. He waved at the driver's cab. The driver got out of the car. Gu Changzheng said: "Give me the car keys, you go and rest."

The driver let out a sigh of relief, feeling relieved, and hurriedly handed the keys to Gu Changzheng. Gu Changzheng gripped the keys tightly in his hand and saw a small van drive over quickly. It stopped with a screech behind the Iveco. Luo Fei got out of the car, opened the door, and took the suitcases down from the car...

15 minutes had passed. 15 minutes from the Jiangdong Sub-bureau to the Jiangbei Dock in the Shadao District, not considering traffic lights, was just right. Gu Changzheng saw that the money and suitcases were all loaded into the car. He said to Liu Han: "I'm leaving now. Notify the Traffic Police Detachment to ensure that all traffic lights on the route the car passes are green."

At 0:28 AM, the white Iveco stopped at the Jiangbei Dock 2 minutes early.

Gu Changzheng looked down at his phone. When the time showed 0:29 AM, the signal icon on the screen suddenly disappeared. He knew that at this moment, in a communication vehicle 200 meters away from him, a group of technical division police officers were staring intently at the computer screen in front of them!

Time passed minute by minute. When the time on the phone screen showed 0:30 AM, Gu Changzheng's phone suddenly rang "Ding-a-ling!"!

Gu Changzheng looked down. Sure enough, the number that called this time had changed again! He still waited calmly for the ringtone to ring three times before answering.

Liu Baoshan's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Captain Gu, you did a good job! You arrived two minutes early! Now open the back door of the car, I want to see the money!"

Gu Changzheng snorted, bent over to open the back door of the Iveco, and shone the flashlight in his hand on the hundred-yuan bills that occupied half of the car compartment! "Did you see clearly? Do you want to come over and count it?" Gu Changzheng said coldly.

"Haha! Forget about counting. However, I have to trouble Team Leader Gu to let the brothers following you help pack the money into the suitcases. You have half an hour. Be fast! I have a supervisor watching you!" As soon as he finished speaking, the phone hung up!

Gu Changzheng took the walkie-talkie: "Liu Han, how is it? Have you locked onto the other party's location range?"

Liu Han replied from the communication vehicle not far away: "Captain Gu, your method is really effective! Liu Baoshan is in the Shadao District. When you were talking to him, we shielded the signals in other areas, but your conversation was not affected at all, which only shows that he is in the Shadao District!"

"Good! You stay put! Wait for my order!" After speaking, he called Guo Hao, who was trailing not far away, and ordered them to come over quickly to pack the money.

On the dock side, the packing was tense. On the other side, under the command of Zhao Xiaodong, the Deputy Mayor and the head of the Municipal Bureau, a law enforcement force composed of criminal police, special police, and armed police surrounded every entrance and exit of the Shadao District from land, water, and air!

At this moment, on the Qing River, Jiang Yuanqi, wearing handcuffs and shackles, had something bulky placed around his waist and abdomen. But he looked like a fool, leaning motionlessly in the small cabin, two tablet phones lying quietly beside him...

30 minutes passed quickly. Gu Changzheng's phone rang on time again. He was too lazy to look at the number, answered directly, and said: "The money is packed. Let Jiang Yuanqi talk to me again!"

"Captain Gu, don't get it wrong. You are not qualified to bargain with me, unless you don't care about Jiang Yuanqi's life! I said, I will return a complete Jiang Yuanqi to you after safely getting the money. Why are you in such a hurry? Now, let your people go to the abandoned boat on the right side of the dock. There is a large rubber sealed bag there. Pack all the money boxes into it, and then push it into the Qing River. Be fast! This time there are only 10 minutes! If you can't do it well, just wait to collect Jiang Yuanqi's corpse! After these are done, I will tell you where Jiang Yuanqi is."

Gu Changzheng looked at the hung-up phone, more certain that the other party was on the Qing River! He must find him within 10 minutes! This arrogant desperado!

————

In a river-view room at Jiangpan Haoting, Liu Baoshan on the balcony kept staring at the river through a telescope. Seeing a group of police officers being led around by him, he couldn't help but grin and laugh: "Hahahaha! This Gu Changzheng is not that great either! I guess he's still looking for us on the river right now! Alright, let's go!"

Ren Jiahe behind him suddenly said: "Brother Shan, your business is done, when will you let me go?"

Liu Baoshan turned his head and stared straight at him: "What's wrong? Don't you want the money? Besides, now your arrest warrant is already everywhere, where are you going? Follow me, and you can leave the country. Leave me, and you have only one dead end!"

Ren Jiahe knew that following him would lead to death even faster, and he also knew that he was using himself to play a game of smoke and mirrors with the police! But now he still had a bomb on him that could be detonated at any time! What should he do?

Seeing him waver, Liu Baoshan said with a cold face: "Ren Jiahe, you are a dead man anyway. Do you think you can escape the police's arrest? Have you never been to prison? I've been there for over a decade! But thinking about it still makes me afraid! That place is simply not a place for humans! We are only one step away from getting the money now, 10 million! I will give you 10 million! Think about it, it's enough for you to live freely in any country for a lifetime. Don't you want to gamble?"

Ren Jiahe lowered his head, pointed to the bomb on his body, and stared at Liu Baoshan: "You don't trust me at all! If you want me to believe you, you take this off me!" ===== CHAPTER 25 =====
