HPDBC Chapter 46 Big Trouble
Chapter 46 Big Trouble
Wu Song and another criminal police officer escorted Xia Yusheng out of the bedroom.
Cao Dahua had already picked up the walkie-talkie.
"Command center, command center, this is Team Two. Xia Yusheng has been successfully captured! Xia Yusheng has been successfully captured!"
"Command center received!"
After Xia Yusheng was dressed and taken to the living room, Cao Dahua looked at the police officer with the metal detector and asked, "Did you find the gun?"
"We've searched everywhere, but haven't found it yet. This is the only thing left." The officer pointed to a green safe in the living room.
"What's the password?"
Wu Song lifted Xia Yusheng up to the safe with one hand. "You'd better cooperate."
"The first one spins three times in an instant, pointing to 76."
Cao Dahua immediately put on gloves and started twisting.
"The second group, counterclockwise, 18."
The third one, clockwise, is 41.
Okay, turn the handle.
click!
opened.
Looking into the safe, there was only a few tens of thousands of yuan inside.
For most people, having less money is not a problem.
The problem is there are no guns inside!
"The gun isn't inside?" Cao Dahua turned his head instantly, his previously comical eyes suddenly filled with a fierce look as he stared intently at Xia Yusheng. "Xia Yusheng, even now that things have come to this, you still won't be honest, will you?"
"No, really no, I was really robbed by a thief." Xia Yusheng trembled involuntarily. "Not only did I lose the gun, but also a gold watch, a gold necklace, and more than 30,000 yuan. Otherwise, I wouldn't have bought the safe. I bought this safe after I lost it that day."
"Take it back first." Cao Dahua stood up.
……
They placed Xia Yusheng on the back seat of the car, with Wu Song and Cao Dahua flanking him from the left and right, each holding one of his hands.
"Xia Yusheng, let me tell you, your matter is serious, but it doesn't necessarily mean you'll get what's coming to you," Cao Dahua said in a deep voice. "But if you don't tell the truth, and that gun in your hand goes off, things could get very different. If that gun injures or kills someone, you know the consequences yourself."
"Tell me, where is it?"
"It really got stolen." Xia Yusheng sighed helplessly. "I hollowed out a big dictionary and stuffed the gun Zhang Weida gave me inside. But a dozen days ago, I went out for a night of fun, and when I came back the next day, I found the house ransacked. All the money and gold were gone, and the gun was gone too."
Officers, this is such a big deal, why would I lie to you!
Do you think I'd ever come out and continue robbing people?
To be honest, after opening this arcade, I discovered that this kind of thing makes money just as fast as robbing someone.
I've actually wanted to retire from this life for a long time.
The problem is, after I committed that crime back then, even though Zhang Weida dragged me into it, if he wanted to keep going, I couldn't afford not to follow him! If I didn't work with him, that guy would have lost his mind and definitely would have killed me.
"I'm telling you, you'd better tell the truth, otherwise, you can imagine that the outcome will be worse than the worst you can imagine," Cao Dahua said.
"I understand, I understand. I was detained a few years ago and I know how serious it is inside. I wouldn't dare to lie."
"Second group member, I am Cao Dahua, the temporary group leader. Comrade who stayed at Xia Yusheng's house, see if he has a large dictionary."
"receive."
"It's on the bookshelf in the second bedroom," west Yusheng said.
"On the bookshelf in the second bedroom." Cao Dahua pressed the button and spoke again.
A moment later, the voice of the person from before came through the channel: "Found it."
"Open him."
"Team Leader Cao, it's been hollowed out inside; it's shaped like a pistol."
"Okay, I understand." After putting down the walkie-talkie, Cao Dahua's expression immediately became serious.
Wu Song's heart skipped a beat.
Tonight's operation was going smoothly; this vicious criminal gang was wiped out in one fell swoop, which could be described as a great success. However, it turned out that the operation was not entirely successful.
One handgun is still missing.
If Xia Yusheng hid it, that would be fine. Once he's in the police station, there are plenty of ways to get him to reveal where he hid the gun.
The worst fear is that Xia Yusheng is telling the truth, and that his gun really has been stolen.
That would be a huge problem.
As the saying goes, "He who possesses a sharp weapon will naturally have the will to kill."
The person who stole the gun instantly became a ticking time bomb!
Nobody knows when he might suddenly explode.
……
Because Xia Yusheng, whom Wu Song and Cao Dahua arrested, lived in the Chengdong District, by the time they brought him back to the branch office, other vehicles from the team were already parked at the entrance.
They arrested Xia Yusheng and threw him into the interrogation room. Cao Dahua and Wu Song then went to the main conference room and reported to Li Xiang, the deputy director in charge of criminal investigation and the overall commander of tonight's operation.
"Deputy Captain Cao, how's it going?"
"Reporting to Director Li, Xia Yusheng has been successfully captured. Our team suffered no casualties, however, however..."
"But what? Just say it. You're a veteran criminal investigator, why are you still stammering?" Li Xiang waved his hand, signaling Cao Dahua to continue.
"The black gun made by Hualong that should have been in his possession was stolen."
"Stolen?" Li Xiang looked incredulous. "What happened? Tell me in detail."
"His family was burgled two weeks ago, and cash, gold, and guns were stolen from their home."
"Is it possible that he made up a lie to deceive us?"
"That's a possibility, but based on my years of experience, it doesn't seem like he's lying. He said he bought a safe after the gun was stolen, and you can find out by checking the purchase date of that safe. Besides, he really has no motive."
"Wu Song, what about you? What do you think?" Li Xiang had heard the report about Li Ailian's case and was surprised that Wu Song had once again played a key role in the case.
This made him no longer see Wu Song as a newcomer who had been with the company for less than half a year, but as a veteran criminal investigator with many years of experience, and he subconsciously wanted to know Wu Song's opinion.
"I agree with my master's judgment!" Wu Song gave the same answer, "The main reason is that I can't think of a reason why he would secretly hide that gun."
They robbed an armored truck and even killed someone during the robbery.
The amount is exceptionally large.
They did it twice more.
The crackdown was still ongoing this year, so Wu Song couldn't understand why Xia Yusheng was still able to get out.
Could it be that Xia Yusheng is pregnant too?
Does it have that function?
"Hmm!" Li Xiang nodded slightly.
"If it's hidden, we have plenty of time to slowly pry it out of him. But if it was stolen, then the gun could very well have bad consequences. You should focus on the possibility that the gun was stolen."
"Yes, Director Li."
