Chapter 1311: Aiming at People

~9 min read 1,636 words

Huang Qiangmin made a few phone calls to confirm that the case background was fine, then looked at Yu Wenshu and said: "You are quite calm, not in a hurry for a kidnapping case?"

"To tell the truth, I am also waiting for people to make the final confirmation." Yu Wenshu picked up a piece of fat beef jerky, tore off a very small piece, chewed it with a mouth full of oil, and said: "We have cooperated so many times, I know that Jiang Yuan needs the leading power to handle cases. You brought thirty-something people, saying to listen to others, others can't command, right? However, the victim's family is not a professional, if there is an extra technical expert, he will definitely be grateful, but if he masters the power of handling cases, they will definitely have to think more."

"They want to ask a few more people. Decided now?" Huang Qiangmin was not surprised at all. Involving family members, those who have no way have to find a way, let alone those who have a way.

"Asked a circle, confirmed. Of course, if Jiang Yuan doesn't want to handle this case, they also have alternatives. I will say that other cases have been handed over to Jiang Yuan, which is also justifiable."

"If you don't give it to him, you give it to yourself." Huang Qiangmin hummed twice, then looked at Jiang Yuan and said: "I just learned about it. It happened at noon today. The victim is 13 years old, a first-year junior high school boy. On the way the driver sent him to school, he was forcibly hijacked by three people. The father is a very big gold shop owner in Pingzhou. The kidnapper's request is gold of equal weight. If one jin is less, one jin of meat will be cut off."

Yu Wenshu took over: "The driver has been sent back, the right thumb was chopped off, put in ice cubes and sent over, saying it was to show their attitude. The victim intends to pay the ransom, but there is too much, it is very difficult to raise, and dare not bargain, very passive... Now the location and method of paying the ransom have not been determined."

In kidnapping cases, the police usually don't let the family choose to pay the ransom, but if the family insists, the police will often cooperate.

Correspondingly, the ransom also needs to be prepared by the family itself. If the money is spent and the person doesn't come back, it is also possible.

Jiang Yuan saw that Huang Qiangmin had determined to this step, so he didn't say much, got up and said: "Then take the case. Where is the other party in Pingzhou?"

"Pingzhou's Anwan City. Yin Feisong started in Anwan City, first opened a gold mine, later didn't let it open, just specialized in gold jewelry." Yu Wenshu said briefly, then picked up his mobile phone and replied to a few messages, soon received the message, and said: "Yin Feisong chartered a C909 business jet for us, called EMJ, 48 seats, the route has been applied for, and started queuing. We set off now, it takes more than an hour to Changyang Airport, and the business jet takes about forty minutes to arrive."

"Sure." Jiang Yuan responded and started packing beef jerky.

Huang Qiangmin held down his hand and said: "Pingzhou produces cattle."

"Many of their breeds are not good." Jiang Yuan continued to pack beef jerky.

Liu Jinghui pulled Huang Qiangmin who was preparing to persuade again: "We brought our own beef jerky, they know they should prepare good beef. It's like we brought our own team, they know they should give the command power."

"Okay." Huang Qiangmin thought of the business jet. Since they started chartering planes to go back and forth themselves, when other places invited them again, they would consider business jet transportation. It wouldn't necessarily be a chartered plane, but if it couldn't be done, it would definitely be explained in advance.

Huang Qiangmin couldn't help but think along this angle.

Wang Chuanxing pulled a few people and started calling the team members who hadn't returned.

Being a criminal investigator is like this. When you are free, you can take extra holidays. When you are busy, even if it is the Spring Festival, so what. Of course, the reality is that there is almost no free time.

The members of Jiang Yuan's cold case task force who had just been on holiday went home to rest and live, and some ran out to travel. At this time, those who could be called back were called back, and those who couldn't make it in time could only take public transportation to Pingzhou themselves.

During the time in the car, the criminal investigators of the cold case task force had already started to collect information from all aspects and handed over the corresponding documents to Jiang Yuan and Liu Jinghui and others.

Pingzhou gave a part of the information. By the time Jiang Yuan reached the current stage, obtaining information himself was already a standard configuration. They not only had to guard against the suspect making a false trail, but also guard against the victim and others having other plans.

Whether it is Jiang Yuan's reputation or the nature of the cases he took over, it is enough for many people to plan for it.

After boarding the plane, Jiang Yuan had two laptops and 3 expansion screens in front of him, and started updating a large amount of photos, videos, and text.

Wang Chuanxing quickly combed through the case context and updated information for Jiang Yuan and others:

"The school where the victim attends is Haishui Middle School in Anwan City, an international school, built in Huangjiawan in the suburbs of the city. The surrounding area is mainly high-end residential areas such as villas. There are controls at every intersection, but the three kidnappers wore masks in advance, and the car was also a Buick LaCrosse stolen a few days in advance. Anwan police are checking the corresponding surveillance, etc., and currently there is no discovery."

"The Buick LaCrosse involved in the case was abandoned 12 kilometers away from the incident location. You can see other tire traces at the scene. It is suspected that they changed to other transportation to leave. The incident location is almost out of the city, and there is no surveillance."

"The driver who was released saw the suspect already wearing a facekini. Two were empty-handed, one was holding a shotgun. He has been sent to the hospital for general anesthesia surgery to connect his thumb. The driver is a relative of the Yin family, a night shift driver who did taxi

"The kidnappers have only contacted the victim twice so far, once by phone and once through the driver. The Anwan police estimate that they will very likely contact us a third time tonight. This time will very likely decide the time, location, and method of the transaction. They are asking what our thoughts are..."

Wang Chuanxing said all this in one breath and waited for Jiang Yuan and the others to discuss the case.

A real case analysis meeting does not require many people. A case analysis meeting where everyone sits upright in formal attire in a clean and tidy conference room is performative. A real case analysis meeting can only be a discussion among a few people; otherwise, just two minutes of speaking for each person would waste all the time.

As for how to judge what is a fake case analysis meeting and what is a real one, just look at whether the participants are smoking.

Just like at this moment, Liu Jinghui had already tucked a Liqun cigarette between his fingers.

Jiang Yuan, however, was quickly flipping through some photos and videos at this time, and said, "Get the car over here first. Have they checked the traces on the car?"

"Checked. We are currently comparing the fingerprints and traces found, but the car was stolen," Wang Chuanxing said.

"The car was stolen in advance; it's impossible that they only used it this one time. Otherwise, what car did they use for scouting?" Jiang Yuan said, then added, "Ordinary trace inspection is very slow and easy to miss things. Ask them if they have a large-space fingerprint fuming system. If not, go find one. Fume the car first and see what traces we find before saying anything else."

A large-space fingerprint fuming system sounds very impressive, but in reality, it is just a shed or a tent with a decent 502 fuming device inside, which can cover large items like vehicles to fume them, revealing all traces.

Ordinary trace inspection actually requires guessing, such as guessing that the suspect touched the trunk, the steering wheel, etc., and then sprinkling powder on it to brush it carefully.

Applying powder is fast, but it takes dozens of seconds. Brushing dozens of spots doesn't take much time, but brushing an entire car is impossible.

Liu Jinghui instantly understood Jiang Yuan's train of thought. Speaking of which, Jiang Yuan had no experience in investigating kidnapping cases and no ability to negotiate face-to-face, so going directly for the people was the most suitable approach for Jiang Yuan.

One might say, this is likely also the train of thought of the Anwan Municipal Bureau. Otherwise, would they really hand over 40 or 50 kilograms of gold? That is more than 30 million in cash. Buying a set of equipment for a few hundred yuan on Taobao could make this gold disappear without a trace.

"Let them fume it first. We will arrive just as it's done." Liu Jinghui lit the Liqun with a snap, fully enjoying the happiness of a chartered flight.
