Chapter 721: Resolutely Pursue the Investigation
"This is a very serious incident, which has damaged Gosner's friendly relations with China and greatly hurt the feelings of Chinese friends, and we will definitely resolutely investigate and bring the gangsters to justice!"
In the office of the chief of the Chaweng City Police Department, Police Chief McCarty swore a categorical oath to Feng Xiaochen and his party, a fat and strong black police officer with an extremely rich face. Maybe it's because of the excitement, but more likely because he drank some wine in the morning, and his face glowed red.
"Thank you, Chief McCarty. Feng Xiaochen politely bowed slightly to McCarty, and then asked, "Director McCarty, I want to know, it has been a day since the incident was filed, do the police have any investigation results on this matter?"
"This is the work of a group of brutal thugs!" McCarty affirmed.
"This ...... Hehe. Feng Xiaochen gave the other party a hehe without smiling, are you teasing me? After a day of investigation, this is the result?
"None of them are Chaweng natives. McCarty's tone weakened a little, and he seemed to know that he had been a little embarrassed by his performance.
Feng Xiaochen raised his eyebrows: "Is there any evidence?"
"There is no conclusive evidence yet, this is just our analysis. ”
"On the basis?"
"Because...... There have been no similar bad incidents in Chaweng in the past, so we judge that the gangsters who came to Chaweng from other places were responsible. ”
"What about motivation?"
"Motives...... It's not clear. ”
"How many police forces did you send to hunt down the gangsters?"
“…… We are conducting a technical appraisal of the murder weapon left at the scene by the gangsters. ”
Feng Xiaochen turned his head to Langfu, the deputy director of the Gosner Police Department, who accompanied them, and Feng Xiaochen had contacted him through his connections with the Ministry of Industry of Gabe. Before Feng Xiaochen arrived in Chaweng, the officials of the Chinese Embassy in Gosner had already negotiated with the relevant departments of Gosner and asked for a strict investigation of the matter, but the other party's attitude was to hum and kick the ball, and there were a lot of beautiful words, but there was no specific measure. Helplessly, Feng Xiaochen could only ask Lu Ram to come forward, and contacted Lang Fu through a public and private relationship, which can be regarded as having a small backer.
Seeing Feng Xiaochen's dissatisfied eyes, Lang Fu's face was a little unbearable, he straightened his face, and reprimanded McCarty: "Director McCarty, is this how you treat our Chinese friends? This is a very serious violent incident against a Chinese friend, and now 24 hours have passed, and you are still doing what to identify the murder weapon." By the time you find out, the gangsters have already gone abroad, how are you going to arrest them?"
"Yes!" McCarty quickly straightened up and replied, "Director Langf, we will immediately send the police to hunt down the gangsters!"
"Do you have a wanted warrant?"
"Not ...... yet"
"Arrest warrants should be issued now, and immediately faxed to all police stations in the country, especially those in the border areas, to prevent gangsters from escaping abroad. ”
"Yes!"
McCarty was quick enough to salute Ronff and run out of the office, when they heard the sound of chickens and dogs jumping in the hallway of the police station, as if they were planning something.
Lang Fu turned his head, handed a smile to Feng Xiaochen, and said, "Mr. Feng, I'm sorry, the efficiency of these police stations below us has always been like this. Security ...... in Chaweng Well, it's always been good, and in the event of such violence, McCarty and they are also inexperienced, please forgive me. ”
"Thank you, Mr. Langf. Mr. Director, I would like to ask you something: in your opinion, who did the incident and what their motives were? As far as we know, the gangsters went directly to our service center with the address to commit the murder, and there was a supermarket and a jewelry store next to it, and they were not attacked, so it is unlikely that they were robbed, right?" Feng Xiaochen said.
"Well...... According to Mr. Feng, what is their motive?" Lang Fu kicked the ball back to Feng Xiaochen. In fact, he originally wanted to characterize the incident as a robbery, but Feng Xiaochen blocked his words back with one mouth. Who would be blind enough to rob an equipment service center with neither cash nor luxury goods worth grabbing?
Feng Xiaochen smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Director, I am engaged in industry, and solving cases is not my specialty. What do you think about the fact that professional things should be left to professional people, and I heard Minister Lunam say that Director Langf is a veteran police officer with decades of police experience, what do you think about this?"
Unable to hide, Lang Fu thought for a moment and said, "If it wasn't a robbery, then it was probably a revenge hunt." Do you have a feud with anyone?"
"Not at all. Feng Xiaochen said.
"Or, it's the gangster's passion?"
"According to my staff, the assailants were calm and they were clearly prepared. ”
"Maybe the decoration style of your center is not in line with our local customs......
"Mr. Director, our time is precious......" Feng Xiaochen couldn't help it and choked coldly.
When he first heard about this matter, Feng Xiaochen did think of many possibilities. But when he arrived at the scene and talked with Guo Qiang and Chen Bangpeng, who stayed in the hospital to observe and treat, his heart became as clear as a mirror. This case is obviously aimed at the China Service Center, and it is not the right person, so the possibility of robbery and revenge can be completely ruled out. As for what kind of crime is committed by passion, it is purely a ghost, is there such a well-organized and well-prepared crime of passion? There is also a decoration style...... Does Xiao Feng look a lot like IQ arrears?
Ruling out these possibilities, there is only one last answer left, and that is what a competitor did. Gosner is a semi-agricultural country, and there are some industries in the country, but it does not involve the equipment manufacturing industry, so it has no competition with the Chinese service center at all, and even has a certain complementarity, because if there is a problem with the industrial equipment they use, they also have to find these service centers to help solve it.
It's not Gosner's local competitor, it's obviously a competitor from Western countries, and the only suspense is which one or which country it is. In the past two years, China's equipment enterprises have begun to infiltrate Africa one after another, and the display in the country of Gambia a few days ago was quite high-profile, and it is normal for some Western competitors to complain, right? When it comes to competition, Westerners will not talk about any gentlemanly manners at all, and during the great voyage, which Western navigator did not have the experience of killing people and overselling goods? In recent years, everyone has begun to pretend to be civilized, and it seems insulting to smash them directly, and it is much more civilized to hire a group of local gangsters to do it.
If you want to hire local thugs to smash the Chinese service center, you must come up with real money, and it is impossible for the thugs to fight for their faith. A look at which foreign company in Gosner has recently had large cash expenditures will reveal the root cause. Of course, there are some problems with criminal investigation techniques, but Feng Xiaochen believes that with the ability of Langfu and the Gosner Police Department, it will not be difficult to do this.
In addition, gangsters who can be photographed by foreign companies must have some fame in the rivers and lakes. There is often some connection between the police and such gangs, and if you really want to arrest someone, you can make a few phone calls and ask to know what is going on, and where do you need to do a murder weapon identification?
Lang Fu is a person who understands, but at this time he pretends to be confused, and the reason is worth savoring. The more Feng Xiaochen listened to him, the more outrageous it became, so he could only give a reminder.
Hearing Feng Xiaochen's words, Lang Fu was stunned for a moment, and the original smile on his face froze. He looked at Feng Xiaochen and said lightly: "Mr. Feng, I don't quite understand what you mean, crimes of passion are often encountered in our law enforcement practice, but this time it happened to enterprises in your country, and I apologize for this." ”
"So, can Director Lang give me a thorough understanding of how long it will take the police to bring the gangsters to justice?" Feng Xiaochen asked.
Reef replied, "We'll do our best to arrest you, but I can't promise you exactly when." After all, Gosner is not a large country, and it is entirely possible that the gangsters will flee to neighboring countries, and if that were the case, it would be difficult for us to arrest them. I am only the deputy director of the police department in Gosner, and I have no right to ask neighboring countries to cooperate with our actions. ”
This is the third time that Lang Fu has mentioned the problem of the gangsters escaping, and no matter how stupid Feng Xiaochen is, he can still hear the subtext. In fact, people have been preparing to make a foreshadowing for a long time, and on the surface they promised to do their best to arrest them, but in the end they told you that they couldn't catch them, because the criminals had fled the country, what can you do about me? The national borders of many African countries are also useless, and this kind of thing is indeed very common, and this excuse of Lang Fu really made Feng Xiaochen unable to find any flaws.
"I see, thank you, Director Ralf. Feng Xiaochen smiled sincerely, he did understand. Lang Fu was introduced to Lu Ram, and according to Lu Ram, the two still had some personal relationships. Some companies in Gosner have also purchased a lot of Chinese equipment over the years, so there is still some friendship between the two countries. Lang Fu ignored these public friendships and personal relationships, and even made such hard words in front of Feng Xiaochen, which showed that he had nothing to do with this matter.
If you think about it, you can understand that the Western powers have been operating in Africa for many years, so how can they not have anything to do with the officials? In the eyes of these African officials, China is indeed just a new outsider.
It's good if it matters, when you do it yourself, you don't have to worry about accidental injury, Feng Xiaochen thought coldly in his heart.
