Chapter 415: Locking onto the Suspect

A police officer handed the printed sheets to Xu Mo for review.

The latter reached out, took the papers, and began to look them over.

These were printed directly from the Sky Eye System.

The above clearly records the places Zhang Quan has recently visited and the people he has met.

Last Friday: the company, the bathhouse; the people met include several employees of the company and Technician No. 7 of the bathhouse.

Last Saturday: the bathhouse; the person met was the bathhouse's Technician No. 7.

Last Sunday: the bathhouse; the person met was still Technician No. 7 of the bathhouse.

This Monday: Insurance Company, bathhouse; the people met were still several company employees and the bathhouse's Technician No. 7.

This Tuesday: Insurance Company, bathhouse…

This Wednesday: Insurance Company, bathhouse…

This Thursday: Insurance Company, bathhouse…

Today: at nine a. m. he went to a tea house; met a man in a suit, they chatted for half an hour, then left the tea house together for the suburbs. Indeed, Zhang Quan unusually did not go to the bathhouse today.

After reviewing the places Zhang Quan visited in the past week, Xu Mo felt numb.

He had expected that analyzing Zhang Quan's movements would take some time, but it turned out to be that simple!

Simple enough that it could be summed up in one sentence: today nothing, just hanging hooks and listening to music.

So Xu Mo didn't even need to analyze.

The employees of the Insurance Company and the bathhouse's Technician No. 7 are probably not suspicious.

In the past seven days, the only suspect among the people Zhang Quan met is the man in the suit he met at the tea house today.

Putting down the papers the officer handed over, Xu Mo spoke.

"Check the man in the suit who met Zhang Quan at the tea house today; I think he is the most suspicious."

"Yes!" the officer replied, then complied, preparing to use the Facial Database to look up that man in the suit.

After a moment, the result came back.

"Team Leader Xu, the check is done. That person is named Wang Yufei, thirty‑one years old, unmarried, parents deceased, unemployed, a lifelong drifter in society, with a long criminal record, having committed both major and minor offenses, served time twice, and has been to jail more times than he can count on both hands."

After a brief introduction, the officer added a summary: "Hmm… a man riddled with misdeeds, a total waste to society."

Xu Mo nodded slightly after hearing that.

They've found the right person.

For a misdeed‑laden drifter who's been to prison twice, committing another crime is just normal.

Especially since Wang Yufei is a societal drifter; the fact that he mingles with Zhang Quan, a billionaire insurance company boss, is highly suspicious.

The two are not on the same path at all!

Their association must hide something.

"Find out where he is and arrest him directly!" Xu Mo said.

The Police need evidence to make an arrest; they cannot detain someone without cause.

However, Wang Yufei is already suspected of two murders; he went to an abandoned factory in the suburbs today, and the officers happened to find two corpses there. That alone is enough to list Wang Yufei as a suspect and proceed with his arrest.

After locking onto the suspect, the officers immediately used Tianyan Search to query Wang Yufei's current location, preparing to apprehend him.

…

Meanwhile.

Han Fei was still busy checking the surveillance with a group of officers.

Although the abandoned factory is in the suburbs, there are quite a few vehicles passing by, mostly various trucks, lorries, and semi‑trailers.

This is a route commonly taken by large‑vehicle drivers.

With a decent flow of traffic and surveillance not especially dense, pinpointing a suspect vehicle is difficult.

Especially since the only information they have now is tire tracks, which tell them it's a truck but nothing else; this undoubtedly raises the difficulty of the search, and so far they've found nothing, which has left Han Fei very worried.

He was about to call Xu Mo to ask about the situation when his phone rang.

The caller was Xu Mo.

Han Fei didn't hesitate and immediately pressed the answer button.

"How's it going over there, have you found anything?"

"We found a suspect named Wang Yufei; he met Zhang Quan at the tea house today, and after chatting there they went to the abandoned factory in the suburbs. We used Tianyan Search and saw that ten minutes ago he was captured on surveillance on the Huanxian, driving a white box truck with license plate Yang 317. I've sent you his photo and the location of that surveillance capture… you're closer to that area, try to see if you can intercept him."

As soon as Xu Mo finished speaking, Han Fei received two text messages.

They were both sent by Xu Mo: a photo of suspect Wang Yufei and a location—the spot where the surveillance captured him ten minutes ago.

Although Xu Mo had already led his team here, the distance was still considerable.

It takes a few hours to get from the city to the suburbs; by the time he arrives the dried daylilies will be cold, so he called Han Fei to ask her, being already in the suburbs, to help intercept.

Upon learning that Xu Mo had locked onto the suspect, Han Fei immediately gave up further surveillance checks and prepared to make the arrest.

He instantly stood up and told the accompanying officers, "No need to check the surveillance for now; Team Leader Xu has locked onto the suspect, follow me!"

The group had been at the local police station borrowing equipment to check surveillance; hearing Han Fei's words, they also got up, thanked the station's staff, and immediately went out, ready to drive after the suspect.

Han Fei opened the phone's map, walking outward while looking at it.

Because there aren't many surveillance cameras on the road, the location Xu Mo sent to Han Fei shows where the suspect was ten minutes ago.

Ten minutes have passed, so the suspect has certainly traveled some distance; Han Fei needs to estimate his current position in order to block him.

"The suspect was captured on surveillance on the Outer Ring Road ten minutes ago, heading west to east; ten minutes later he should be here… we'll enter the Huanxian from this Chadaokou to block him!"

After a brief analysis, Han Fei had already devised a blocking plan.

Once on the road, Han Fei sounded the police siren and sped toward that Chadaokou.

The police officers in the several police cars behind saw this and also turned on their sirens; the benefit of doing so is that they can disregard traffic regulations, and the vehicles on the road will give way to them.

The road was clear all the way, and the officers rushed to Chadaokou at top speed…
