Chapter 469 Theft case, Zhao Ning is here
Li Aiguo is deeply aware of the seriousness of the case.
That night, the matter of Xiao Nicha’s missing “Gliss” was reported to the Canton Fair Preparatory Committee through Yang Jizong.
Twelve o'clock in the night.
[Mr.] was still tirelessly correcting official documents under the dim lamplight. After learning the facts of the case, he immediately held a meeting overnight.
In the conference room.
A comrade from the special department suggested that Li Aiguo take the lead in finding the stolen "Gliss".
"Firstly, Li Aiguo is a non-staff member, and his identity is not that sensitive. Even if "Gliss" is not found, the other party cannot use the topic."
"Secondly, Li Aiguo and Mr. Nicha The relationship is relatively good, which can appease the owner and buy time to find "Gliss". "
Of course, the more important reason he did not tell was that Li Aiguo was the [driver].
[Sir] is not a farmer. Although he doesn’t know Li Aiguo’s identity, he has read the files and knows that Li Aiguo was good at solving problems in the past.
[Sir] nodded: "This matter has been settled. A task force will be set up, with Comrade Li Aiguo as the leader."
[Sir] also said: "Tell Comrade Patriot, Don’t be pressured and adhere to three principles: come from the masses, go to the masses; concentrate and persevere; adhere to the truth and correct mistakes. Victory will eventually belong to us.”
< br>In the meeting room of the task force, Li Aiguo stood in front of the window. After listening to Yang Jizong's words relayed by [Mr.], he suddenly became excited.
Out the window is a quiet night in Yangcheng. Thousands of houses are brightly lit in the distance, and passers-by are walking along the streets nearby. It is so peaceful here.
Wow.
Close the curtains.
Li Aiguo walked to the conference table, held the table with both hands, and said in a deep voice: "Check! We must find the thief!"
The task force consisted of five people.
Chief Zhang of the Security Section of the Preparatory Committee, Yang Jizong of the Hong Kong City, and Captain Chen of the Municipal Bureau, Zhou Ke and the commander of the reconnaissance company.
Except for Li Aiguo and Yang Jizong, no one knew the significance behind this case. They only thought that they were trying to help merchants recover valuables.
Although he did not understand the significance of the case, Zhou Ke still seemed very excited.
He has the lowest position in this room.
The rest were all big guys, so he started working as an orderly, serving tea and water to several people.
Drinking tea, Li Aiguo said slowly: "Before officially starting to track down the thief, Section Chief Zhang, Mr. Xiao Yang, you two will ask all the merchants to see if they have been arrested recently. Stole it."
As soon as this was said, Section Chief Zhang frowned: "Team leader, didn't we find the dagger?"
"Old Zhang. , listen to the team leader.”
At this time, Yang Jizong already understood Li Aiguo’s intention.
If this case was just petty theft, it would be easy to solve.
If there is something else hidden, it would be troublesome.
After the two left, Li Aiguo looked at Captain Chen: "Old Chen, you are a local and you should have some ideas. Now go and ask around to see if there are any new thieves here in Yangcheng recently."
< br>"Understood, I'll do it right away." Captain Chen nodded.
As the captain, Captain Chen often deals with thieves in Yangcheng.
It can also be said that if you want to find a lost item in Yangcheng, Captain Chen can find it for you as long as you go out for a walk.
When Li Aiguo attended a meeting of the Ministry of Railways, he heard Zhou Chenrong, a train driver from the Yangcheng Railway Bureau (established in 1953), say that an expert once lost a suitcase on the train. , which contains important documents.
After confirming that the thief had left Yangcheng Railway Station, the Yangcheng Railway Bureau immediately sent an investigation report to the Yangcheng local government.
After several days of searching without success, the Railway Police Station had no choice but to turn to the local Captain Chen for help.
That afternoon, Captain Chen and the railway police officers found the suitcase in a public toilet five miles away from the train station.
There was no missing document in the box, and what was even more strange was that there was an extra five dollars.
This is also an important reason why Li Aiguo appointed Captain Chen to join the task force.
After a few people left, Zhou Ke lowered his voice: "Aiguo, do you think Dieter is behind this?"
"I don't think so, but I am very sure." Li Aiguo analyzed: "Nicha I have been to Gris. The handle of the sword is inlaid with gold and gems. It is extremely luxurious. The thief steals things to make a living, not to seek death. "
"So, the thief is stealing. Si, the thief has other plans and is preparing to destroy Guangdong."
Zhou Ke was halfway through his words, and the rest of his words were choked in his throat.
Those people are too bad. When they see opportunities for development in the mainland, they jump out to destroy them mercilessly.
Fortunately, Comrade Li Aiguo is in charge this time.
Yangcheng Dashatou Railway Station.
Although night has fallen, people are still coming and going in the nearby streets.
A man was walking through the crowd. He was wearing a brown military woolen trench coat, and his face was tightly covered by a large white mask.
This kind of costume is very common in Yangcheng in this era.
After the end of World War II, the United States retreated, and remaining military supplies, including military blankets, flour, milk powder, compressed dry food, and medicines, flowed into the civilian population.
Even before liberation, homeless beggars were begging on the road wearing dirty wool military blankets.
The man followed the crowd and turned several turns, and finally came to a remote alley.
As soon as he took two steps, someone stabbed him in the back with a dagger.
"Old ghost, did you bring it?"
"You are still so cautious, Lao Sha."
The man nicknamed Laogui didn't have any nervousness, he was just high He raised his hands high and allowed the other party to search his pocket for two hundred banknotes.
“If you are not careful in our business, you will be dead a long time ago.”
Lao Sha was also wrapped tightly, and he even wore a black woolen hat. Only his eyes were exposed from his whole body, so that the old ghost couldn't even figure out his age.
It’s just that according to the information provided by Shangfeng, Lao Sha was a famous thief in Yangcheng before liberation and was imprisoned in the detention center for five years.
When he came out of the detention center, he was already fifty years old, and he should be nearly sixty now.
This old man can really steal a dagger?
Lao Sha did not turn on the flashlight, but rubbed it with one hand and said dissatisfied: "Why do you only have money and a passport to Hong Kong City? We have an agreement!"
"Old Sha, have you forgotten our agreement? I can only give you the passport if it has an important impact." The old ghost said coldly: "Stop talking about it, where is the dagger?"
Old Sha Congqiu. He pulled out a dagger and handed it over.
The old ghost took it and pulled out a flashlight and shined it twice.
The luxurious dagger emits a dazzling light under the beam of light.
The old ghost narrowed his eyes and rubbed the gem with his hand again. After confirming that it was genuine, he carefully inserted it into his waist.
“Next time we meet here, I also hope to bring my passport with me.”
The old ghost picked up his coat to cover his dagger, turned around and was about to leave. Sha stepped forward and blocked his path.
"What if you don't fulfill your promise? I can't trust people like you, so you might as well"
He finished his words.
A pistol was pressed against Lao Sha’s forehead.
Feeling the chill from the gun barrel, his legs became weak and he knelt on the ground with a thud, raising his hands high.
Holding the handle of the gun hard, the old ghost said with a ferocious smile: "You are not just a dirty thief, but you dare to negotiate terms with me? Do you believe it or not, before liberation, I can kill you with just one finger? I can crush you to death!"
"Sir, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Lao Sha turned pale with fright.
Although he didn't know the identity of the old ghost.
But being able to know his details so well, and even knowing his situation in prison, I have already guessed the origin of the old ghost.
Lao Sha felt a little regretful. He shouldn't have been bragging in front of such a person just now.
“Remember, if you dare to pretend to be a boss in front of me again, I will destroy you!”
Putting away the pistol, with the corners of his coat flying, and stepping on the stagnant water, the old ghost turned around and left the alley.
After the footsteps disappeared, Lao Sha dared to stand up and wipe the sweat from his forehead.
With the faint moonlight, you can see that there are only three fingers on his right hand.
At this time, two black figures came out of the corner. It was obvious that they had been hiding for a while.
Looking at the old ghost in the distance, the two of them approached Lao Sha.
“Brother Sha, didn’t you get your passport?”
“No, this person is too cautious.”
“I see, Hong Kong City is only a few kilometers away from Shenzhen City. We can swim there, so why do we need a passport?" asked another dark figure.
Lao Shaban said: "That's not a passport, it's an amulet! We three brothers are all old and have no savings. Even if we arrive in the port city, unless someone takes care of us, we will still have to be thieves.< br>
We are about to reach the age where we know our destiny, can we still be thieves? ”
Thinking of this, Lao Sha felt depressed.
These two are good brothers he met in prison. He originally planned to wait until they were released from prison, and the three of them would join forces to do something big.
Who would have thought that within two years we would be liberated, the social atmosphere would be rectified, and the wealthy people would not be as ostentatious as before.
Even if you get it, it only costs three or two yuan, which is of no use at all.
Having no choice, Lao Sha and his two other good brothers had no choice but to follow the arrangements on the street and join the factory as workers.
It stands to reason that being a worker is an excellent career in this day and age.
But these people are used to eating delicacies from mountains and seas, how can they still eat big white steamed buns?
Fortunately, Lao Sha’s reputation is still there.
Two months ago, the guy nicknamed Lao Gui suddenly found him and asked him to help steal the merchants' things.
Once they succeed and cause serious consequences, they will not only give them a large sum of money, but also give them passports and take them to the port city.
Lao Sha also had some hesitation after realizing the identity of the other party.
However, thinking that I could escape the boring life of a worker and go out to sea to enjoy popular food and drink spicy food, I finally agreed.
"Well, let's wait a few more days. The man has lost his sword and will definitely cause trouble to the Canton Fair."
"I hope so, if not, we can only continue Let’s start.”
His two brothers also knew that Lao Sha’s words were true and could only suppress their anxious emotions.
"Lao Sha, how is the apprentice you took in?"
"That kid is extremely talented. Maybe it won't take long before he can outshine his master and become better than his master. I can be regarded as his successor." Someone is worthy of the master's entrustment. "Lao Sha said proudly: "When I became a disciple, I promised the master that I would pass on his craftsmanship, and now I have finally done it."
"Then. I don’t know if the boy has any talent, but he is filial enough. He brings you wine and food every week. We are both a little envious."
"Sending wine and food." Lao Sha thought for a moment and said: "I'll move tomorrow." "What's the matter, you don't even believe in the apprentice you chose?"
"Who can you trust in our business?" Lao Sha's face was gloomy: "Besides, this matter is too big. If you are caught, you will definitely lose your head."
"Yes, it's better to be cautious. , Lao Sha, how can we contact you?"
"I will go find you."
The three of them whispered together in the dark for a while and separated from each other. , each walked into the crowded flow of people.
They were like fishes that merged into the sea and disappeared.
A dark cloud came and covered the moon.
The night is getting darker.
The next day.
Li Aiguo's prediction was correct. After investigation by Yang Jizong and Section Chief Zhang, it was found that three of the merchants had been visited by thieves.
【Merchants from the Land of Thousand Boats go to the drugstore to buy gifts for relatives and friends.
Before he reached the pharmacy, he discovered that someone had cut a ten centimeter gash in the sharkskin briefcase.
Twenty-three pounds, a red book, and entry passes to and from the Canton Fair Exhibition Hall were lost. 】
【Hong Kong city traders took advantage of the opportunity to participate in the Canton Fair and went to visit old friends.
There are no taxis in Yangcheng these days, so you can only take buses.
When the trader arrived at his old friend’s house, he found that his wallet was lost. A total of 200 Hong Kong dollars and several business cards were lost. 】
【The Hungarian female businessman is from the criminal department.
While visiting Yuexiu Mountain, I discovered that my copper necklace had been stolen. 】
These merchants have reported these situations to their respective tour leaders.
It’s just that the team leaders thought these were accidents.
Where are there no thieves? We cannot let this matter affect our relationship with the Canton Fair.
Because the value of the lost items was not high, and some people were not sure whether they had been stolen by thieves, so several people did not report the crime.
So many theft cases occurred in just a few days. Yang Jizong, who was still suspicious at first, was completely impressed this time.
"Team Leader Li, what should we do now?"
"Wait for Captain Chen." Li Aiguo said.
At this time, Aiqun staff brought breakfast.
Grind soybeans into fresh soy milk and bake soft, shiny buns.
Considering that Li Aiguo and Zhou Ke are from Beijing, the staff also thoughtfully prepared bean juice.
"Douzhi'er is a gift for you." Li Aiguo brought Douzhi'er in front of Yang Jizong and took a bowl of fresh soy milk for himself.
Yang Jizong: "."
After breakfast.
The task force was discussing the case, and Captain Chen returned to the hotel in a dusty state.
"Team Leader Li, after I went back last night, I found a few Lao Rong overnight and asked them about cases related to the Canton Fair."
Lao Rong is the leader of the thieves , there is a group of thieves under his command.
There are rules in every business. Thieving is an ancient business, and it has derived many rules.
A thief comes to a strange place to make a living. He must first give gifts to the local old man, which is equivalent to paying homage to the dock.
You can only steal in this area with permission.
If you are caught, you will be beaten severely. In more severe cases, some parts will be left behind according to industry regulations.
Captain Chen is a comrade who specializes in public security and has good relations with local veterans.
This seems a bit incredible. How can a cat and a mouse be friends?
In fact, in this world, black and white are often not that clear, and there are more grays.
Captain Chen's face was full of exhaustion from a night's sleepless nights. He took the cigarette handed over by Li Aiguo and started smoking. He cheered up and said, "Those old men all said that they have never attacked merchants, nor dared to attack, nor would they do anything. .
Although they are thieves, they will not do anything to embarrass themselves in front of merchants! "
Thieves are also patriotic, which sounds ridiculous, but Li Aiguo can understand it.
Li Aiguo said: "In addition to Lao Rong, there are many thieves in your Yangcheng who are not making up."
"Not making up" Captain Chen instantly understood what Li Aiguo meant, "This word is very useful. Okay. Yes, there are indeed some thieves who don't associate with Lao Rong.
Some of them come from other places and have no fixed residence in the local area.
But don't worry. Well, I have now contacted all the comrades in Yangcheng, and they should have been dispatched by now."
Li Aiguo also knew that if he wanted to catch the thief, he could only rely on the masses and mobilize according to [Mr.]'s instructions. The masses' approach.
He immediately issued an order through Captain Chen in the name of the task force:
“First, require the organization to conduct a raid on all hotels, guesthouses, hostels, stations, docks and other public places suitable for overnight stays in the city that night. The premises will be thoroughly investigated, and all suspicious persons from outside will be strictly interrogated to find out the details. ”
"Second, in the name of the task force, all branches and police stations issued an emergency investigation notice, requiring people with a history of pickpocketing in their respective jurisdictions to check whether any pickpocket masters have emerged in the city recently."
" Third, use the sub-district offices in various neighborhoods of Tongtong Yangcheng to pay attention to whether any residents in the area suddenly show signs of squandering wealth, focusing on sudden purchases of large amounts of wine and meat, and eating and drinking. "
Captain Chen will order. Recording everything in the notebook, his eyes glowed.
This is a complete set of search methods, which you can follow when encountering cases in the future.
"Captain Li, don't worry, I will execute it now!" Captain Chen saluted and left the "Aiqun".
Although the method of casting the net widely and catching more fish is adopted.
Li Aiguo still decided to take Xiao Nicha along the route he traveled yesterday to look for useful clues.
It was only half past eight in the morning.
It is a sunny day today. Under the sunlight, Yangcheng seems to be shrouded in a layer of golden light.
When a few people left the Aiqun and walked to the exhibition hall, Li Aiguo was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.
In the square in front of the exhibition hall, there were several blond businessmen with high noses, dancing the most popular dance of the year with a young man wearing a military green uniform.
They danced so well that they attracted many passers-by to watch.
“Look, these foreigners can also dance our dance!”
“Awesome!”
The passers-by held their chests high, with a hint of pride in their eyes.
Xiao Nicha said angrily: "These guys are too much. I just bought a red book, but they actually danced."
Zhou Ke snorted coldly and said: "These guys Guys, they just want to take advantage. Brother Patriot, should we stop them?"
"Forget it, don't cause trouble, our task now is to catch the thief." Li Aiguo thought for a moment and said. Besides, the Canton Fair is only in its infancy now, so it might be a good thing for them to take advantage.”
This group of businessmen are very influential in the country. Once they make money, they will attract customers from the next Canton Fair. There will definitely be more.
As long as the plate is made big enough, every participant can benefit from it.
Only with channels and influence can the trade fair continue.
This is also the key to the Canton Fair being able to continue for decades without interruption.
“Is it a good thing to be taken advantage of?” Zhou Ke couldn’t understand Li Aiguo’s brain circuit.
Xiao Nicha took a deep look at Li Aiguo, this guy actually knows how to trade?
At this moment.
Li Aiguo saw a pretty figure walking towards the group of merchants from a distance.
This person is Zhao Ning, a reporter from Renren Daily.
It’s just that today Zhao Ning is wearing the uniform of the TV station.
Wearing a dark blue jacket, black trousers, and small leather shoes, paired with a single ponytail that she slapped behind her head, she looked similar to the working women of later generations.
What made Li Aiguo feel strange was that there was a young man following Zhao Ning.
With thick eyebrows, big eyes, a broad face, and a high bridge of nose, he doesn't look like an ordinary person.
In particular, he wore a military coat made of Melton fabric, which was very wide.
This type 55 military coat was called a general in later generations, and it was the favorite of the brothers in the courtyard.
But this is only 1957, and this young man can wear it on his body. His life experience is extraordinary.
"Ning'er, after finishing the interview, I'll invite you to Dexin Restaurant, which can be said to be a Taigong-level restaurant. The plain-cut chicken is especially delicious."
"Zhou Fang, Let’s talk later. I have to work now. Please stay away.”
“You go ahead and buy you ice cream.”
Zhou Fang was scolded. Not angry, he turned around and walked towards the restaurant next to him.
Zhao Ning, along with two reporters and a cameraman, seemed to be preparing to interview the merchants for a news program.
“Excuse me, which country are you from?”
"αβγδεζνξοπρσηθικλμτυφχ"
Zhao Ning: "."
Businessman: "."
At this time, a translator came forward to communicate, and this was the solution to the chicken-to-duck talk. trouble.
Just communicating through translation is not very effective.
Zhao Ning felt that such material, even if it was carefully edited, would not make it onto the evening news program.
The Canton Fair is the most important event in China recently. The TV station sent reporters to the Canton Fair to interview.
Because of his outstanding performance, Zhao Ning finally got the opportunity and was seconded by the TV station, preparing to show his face on the TV station.
Now it seems that there is no way to fulfill this wish.
After a few brief interviews, and a video of merchants dancing, Zhao Ning said to the assistant: "Xiao Wang, take it away, we should focus on the exhibition hall."
Seeing Zhao Ning and the cameraman packing up their equipment and preparing to leave, Li Aiguo suddenly asked: "Xiao Nicha, do you want to be on TV?"
"TV, I often appear on TV programs in Malaysia, but they are all Some tidbits of news.”
“A TV show watched by 400 million people!”
“400 million people? I want to be on it,” said Little Nicha, raising his hand. "If you have a way, I'll get you a sword when I get back."
"The kind inlaid with gold and precious stones."
"Deal!"
