Chapter 756: Smooth

A group of people drove to a commercial area, and the speed of the front car slowed down.

The voice of Captain Tang, the technical investigator who had just made the introduction, soon came from the walkie-talkie: "We will lock the mobile phone location through the technical investigation vehicle next. En, for the old technical investigation vehicle, at this time, the walkie-talkie is generally turned off. We will do a test today, increase the difficulty slightly, and don't turn off the walkie-talkie."

"Received." Huang Qiangmin smiled and responded.

In the walkie-talkie, Captain Tang continued: "We generally find mobile phones by first finding the base station, and then three-point positioning. But this situation is only easy to use when talking. Another one, the method of finding through the base station, the resolution is relatively low. It's okay in the wild, but the more prosperous the city, the harder it is to use. Technical investigation locking is not like this... En, found it."

The front car drove while talking, and stopped downstairs in a residential building with bottom shops.

The community here is not closed, but a commercial and residential dual-use apartment model. The bottom four floors are all shops, prosperous like a small commercial community. The floors above the fourth floor are all residential or apartments, with more than 20 buildings. It is difficult to lock the mobile phone to which building alone when the other party is not calling.

The technical investigation vehicle is different, it drove to the downstairs of Building 6, without any hesitation in the middle.

The basic type of technical investigation vehicle is the radio direction-finding vehicle that often appears in spy dramas. It can monitor the radio waves around while driving, so as to determine the emission position of the wireless signal as much as possible.

In the early years, in the time when electromagnetic signals were not so wild, a radio direction-finding vehicle drove, and when it arrived near the building, the position was basically determined.

Today's environment has become complex, and the height and density of buildings have also risen. It is almost impossible to lock a person by locking a building on the street like decades ago. It belongs to the environment adding difficulty.

Thus, after the technical investigation vehicle stopped steadily, it took out a few small boxes.

"This is a single soldier, the full name is single-soldier portable code detection equipment, 100,000 each. We use this to solve the last kilometer problem." Captain Tang opened several small boxes, turned them on and walked upstairs.

The single soldier is actually simulating a base station. After calling the surrounding mobile phones, let the mobile phones do registration, registration, and reporting themselves. The collected information can be integrated for research or focused on finding a certain mobile phone.

Several technical investigation team members first took the elevator to the 10th and 15th floors, explored up and down, and finally concentrated on the 11th floor.

This apartment building has a pattern of four elevators and sixteen households, the rooms are relatively small, and one door is next to another.

Captain Tang showed the signal of the single soldier to Huang Qiangmin and Jiang Yuan again, and said: "The single soldier can be used by criminal police after training. The method is usually just looking at the signal strength, we look for it door by door."

"The signal of this house is 8, the next door is 9, and the next door is 8 again. Then we turn back and look at it, the signal is indeed 9, then it is in this house." Captain Tang walked through it with the single soldier and determined the place, giving up the position.

The criminal police who followed naturally gathered at the door.

Knock knock knock.

Knock knock knock.

The criminal police knocked on the door, and no one answered inside.

Captain Tang whispered: "The mobile phone is inside, the person must be inside."

This evidence is enough. Wu Junhao nodded when he heard it and said: "Prepare to break the door."

After speaking, Wu Junhao shouted: "Police, if you don't open the door

Creak...

The door was opened a crack.

Wu Junhao rushed in at the first opportunity, not looking at all like someone who had just taken three shots to the chest through a bulletproof vest.

Liu Wenkai and the other criminal police officers also surged inside. The criminal police from the Zheng Guang Bureau were still gripping their Type 92s—in Shannan Province, they were often issued small, unreliable guns, and the Type 92 was considered high-end gear, but in the capital, embarrassing things like revolvers had long since been phased out.

"Who... are you looking for?" The door swung open to reveal a panicked young girl, wearing nightclub-style smoky makeup, black silk stockings, and looking timid.

"Ah... where is Li Xiangming?" Liu Wenkai held his gun, brow furrowed, hoping he hadn't used too much force...

The girl shook her head.

"What is your name?"

"Li Shunyang."

"What is your relationship to Li Xiangming?"

"My brother."

"Where did he go?"

The girl shook her head again.

"Stand to the side." Liu Wenkai raised his right hand, then lowered it, gesturing for the girl to stand against the wall.

The apartment wasn't large, basically a decent-sized one-bedroom, and aside from the kitchen and bathroom, there was nowhere to hide anyone.

The technical investigation officers also frowned, whispering to Jiang Yuan and Huang Qiangmin: "Could he have left his phone behind? Does he have a dedicated work phone?"

At this moment, the police officers in front of Jiang Yuan had all moved up. Jiang Yuan turned to look at the girl standing against the wall and raised his voice slightly: "Please restrain this Li Shunyang."

Wu Junhao, inside, hesitated for a moment. Since it was inconvenient to act, he just stood to the side and said to Li Shunyang: "Raise your hands level. Are you carrying any weapons?"

"No need to be so polite." Jiang Yuan called out again, then added: "Team Wu, keep guard. Team Tang, put the cuffs on him."

"Do you think I'm particularly good at handcuffing women?" Liu Wenkai's personality was never very serious, but he followed orders, took out the handcuffs, walked up to Li Shunyang, and said: "Please turn around..."

"W-why?" Li Shunyang looked pitiful.

Liu Wenkai couldn't help but hesitate. If there was no rush, he actually preferred waiting for a female officer to arrive before handling it, to avoid any trouble later.

Jiang Yuan stepped forward at this moment, looked at Li Shunyang's feet, and said: "Because this is Li Xiangming himself. Judging by the foot shape and gait, he is undoubtedly male. It matches the footprints in the case file."

"A man?"

At this, not only Liu Wenkai and Wu Junhao, but the technical investigators outside the door all looked over.

The girl who had been playing the victim was also shocked, struggling to say: "I'm not..."

"Turn around! Raise your hands!" Wu Junhao understood what Jiang Yuan had said. He no longer cared how the suspect tried to argue, his voice instantly turning gruff.

The girl still wanted to keep up the act, but Liu Wenkai's voice from the side also turned fierce: "Li Xiangming! Don't bring trouble upon yourself! You have enough trouble as it is!"

With so many police officers in the room, all on high alert, Li Xiangming no longer had any illusions, and his voice returned to a normal male tone:

"I get it. I just happened to be wearing a cosplay outfit..."

At this, everyone was certain.

Liu Wenkai "clicked" twice, spreading Li Xiangming's legs: "Hands on the wall. I'm searching you now!"

Since the other party was a man, Liu Wenkai had nothing to worry about.

Liu Wenkai first lifted Li Xiangming's short skirt, confirmed there was nothing in the bulky petticoat, then pulled open the bra with steel rings on the chest to look, before curling his lip and laughing: "Kind of a turn-on, actually."

Li Xiangming said with a calm expression: "If you like it, I have several more sets of little dresses."

"Your voice makes it hard to stay in character." Liu Wenkai, unmoved, handcuffed Li Xiangming and began checking the items in the room.

Several technical investigators were also stunned. Team Leader Tang put away his individual equipment and said happily: "Criminal police life is still interesting."

"You don't usually run into this kind of thing." The accompanying criminal police were also watching the spectacle.

There were a few too many people who had come; those outside were chatting, while those inside were conducting the survey step-by-step.

Although it was a small case, the survey steps were still necessary, though the area and quantity of the survey could be reduced somewhat.

Team Leader Tang watched for a while, not wanting to waste any more time, and turned to Huang Qiangmin: "This is how our practical training goes. As for the technical investigation vehicle, the one we had custom-made is considered quite good..."

He was preparing to take his leave.

At this moment, Jiang Yuan saw this and stopped him: "Team Tang. Since you're already here, let's check one more person."

"Uh... who?" Team Leader Tang hesitated. Theoretically, calling for technical investigation required approval from the provincial department or the municipal bureau. However, since the technical investigation vehicle had already been deployed, the process had naturally been followed. Even so, Team Leader Tang held an instinctive caution toward using technical investigation methods.

Jiang Yuan said: "I took a few fingerprints from the stolen goods and scanned them through the police network, matching a habitual offender with a record for receiving stolen goods. In a moment, have Li Xiangming identify his phone number, you track it, and we'll go grab him directly?"

"Well... alright." Team Leader Tang then led Jiang Yuan and the others downstairs, entered the technical investigation vehicle himself, and after a flurry of operations, said: "Judging by the phone's location, he should be nearby, within a few hundred meters."

"Then let's walk there." Jiang Yuan called for Wu Junhao, Liu Wenkai, and Mu Zhiyang, plus a group of young and energetic officers, and they marched imposingly toward...

A hot pot restaurant.

The suspect and two others were noisily eating hot pot and drinking iced cola.

"Watch the pot base, it's scalding. Find someone to get a lid or something; if the suspect goes crazy and flips the hot pot, control the pot for me first!" Wu Junhao was too experienced at making arrests. With a few words, he arranged and assigned the personnel, then had the main arrest team change their clothes and enter from both the front and back doors.

The preparatory work was slightly tedious, but because of this, when it came to the actual arrest, the three unsuspecting suspects were captured without a hint of resistance.

"These two also have cases against them; they're on the wanted list." Liu Wenkai verified the fingerprints of the three on the spot and rounded up the two hot pot companions of the fence.

At the same time, several more mobile phones and over a dozen figurines were found in their backpacks.

"Let me scan the fingerprints." Jiang Yuan, however, became interested, directly borrowed a private room in the hot pot restaurant, and began dusting the figurines for prints on the spot.
