Chapter 722: Hammer Man
It was close to noon when he left the Japanese TV station, Gao Cheng didn't go back to the office, found a casual fast food restaurant on the side of the road, bought a set meal and set off to the apartment where the police were watching, eating while walking, and looked at the watch time by the way.
In fact, the food in the cafeteria of the daily sales TV station is much tastier, but he is not embarrassed to wait for a meal, and there is already further news from the hammer man's side, which is the time when he is needed.
It's easy to talk big in the show, but after all, you have to work hard yourself, otherwise it's easy to become a joke.
The amount of Japanese food is small and exquisite, but the common food such as fast food is an exception, a set meal is a lot more than Gao Cheng expected, and in the end, he can't finish it, and he can't help but panic after stuffing it into his stomach, and he burps a few times before rushing to the agreed place.
It's better not to eat when you walk in the future......
Gao Cheng rested on the wall of the alley for a while, and finally relieved himself, but when he turned around, he saw Takagi and Sato at the intersection on the other side wearing civilian clothes, although they hugged each other affectionately, but this would look at him in confusion.
"Sorry, I'm late," Gao Cheng coughed lightly and patted his plush coat, "Is there anything new?" ”
Takagi and the two blushed, and hurriedly separated: "Yes, after investigation, the other residents have alibi, and the only problem is the ...... on the third floor that does not open the door."
"Can't you go inside the house yet?" Gao Cheng was stunned, "Who lives there?" ”
"There is no search warrant......," Takagi said embarrassedly, "The owner is a backpacker who likes to travel, and now he is traveling overseas, but the man's parents told us on the phone that he lent the house to a friend to live in......"
"What about that friend's identity?"
"I don't know, the neighbor said that he used to live with his girlfriend, and recently the girlfriend didn't come, and he hid in the room all day, only came out at night, and he kept wearing a hat or a windbreaker, and he didn't even remember what he looked like......"
Takagi was also helpless: "For the time being, I can only wait and see, but he should still come out at night......"
Gao Cheng looked at the apartment building and was speechless.
To be able to be followed to the lair by a drunkard, this time the prisoner is really strange, this level has also committed 4 cases, although several victims were only seriously injured.
Gao Cheng quickly filtered the information in his mind, substituted it into the perspective of the prisoner, and gradually had a bottom in his heart.
Regardless of whether it has anything to do with the "prophet" or not, the "hammer man" can't escape......
"It won't be too long," Gao Cheng began, "he'll definitely find a way to escape today, and maybe not even until the evening." ”
"Running away during the day?" Takagi wondered, "Chiba, they're still watching from the other side, and if anyone leaves the room, they'll be caught right away, at least they should wait until night, right?" ”
Gao Cheng smiled: "In this case, the night is not necessarily safer than the day......
The suspect hiding in the room will not wait until the evening to escape if his IQ is still online, and now the longer the time drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for the suspect, since he does not open the door, he must know that the police are investigating, and he will think that the police may be surveilling.
Although Takagi and Sato are pretending to be a couple on the side of the road, if they don't leave, fools will know that there is a problem.
The key is how the suspect gets out.
The best way to do this is to call some delivery people into the house and lure away the police or take the opportunity to sneak in with the delivery people and escape......
"Officer Sato!" Chiba Fat Man came over with three people, two men and one woman, "Three people have entered that room and have been chased back by us!" ”
Sato didn't bother to ask Gao Cheng carefully, and unexpectedly looked at several strangers, all of whom looked like couriers, one of them was a thin monkey-like person wearing a pizza shop clothes, a short-haired woman wearing a motorcycle helmet and a courier company rider uniform, and the rest was a tall man with long sideburns, quite powerful, wearing an ordinary courier outfit.
"These three people?"
"yes," Chiba said warily to the three humans, "I watched the apartment from afar, making sure that all three of them had been in and out of the room in question......"
"Hey, it's all been said," the tall man said with an unhappy face, "I'm going to deliver a courier, can you not delay my work?" ”
The motorcycle girl next to her followed: "I also delivered a courier, but I just went to that room to get a package...... I still have a job, can I hurry up? ”
The last thin monkey young man also explained with a bitter face: "Just look at me like this, I'm a pizza delivery person, and I still have a lot of things to do......
"Can you wait? Because it involves the hammer man," Takagi asked apologetically, "Have you all three seen the occupants of that room?" ”
"I didn't," the tall man shook his head, "There is a note under the door of the entrance that says, I slept in my room because I had a cold, put the things of the courier on the round table, and the seal was on the same table, please sign for it yourself...... Such a ......"
"I haven't touched it either," the motorcyclist said, pointing to the packed backpack, "and it was also written on that piece of paper, the parcel of the motorcycle courier was placed on the table, and I ......was asked to take it myself."
Without waiting for Takagi to ask, the thin monkey man hurriedly said: "Me too, the pizza was written on the paper, and the money for the takeaway was also put in the envelope on the table, so let me put the pizza directly on the table......"
Gao Cheng's gaze swept over the three people, grabbed Takagi and Sato, who were still questioning, turned to Chiba and asked, "There's no one else going out at the entrance, right?" ”
"There should be no ......"
Chiba shook his head in a daze, but Sato next to him suddenly changed his face: "Chiba, it's only you and the other two who are monitoring the entrance, right?" ”
"Yes, the two couriers were chased back by them, and this pizza delivery man was chased back by me......"
"...... over the hallway?"
Sato thought of a possibility, if he called a lot of people into the room, the police would go to those people for questioning, and the suspect's purpose should be to reduce the number of police officers under surveillance and escape......
"Chiba, I'll leave these people to you!"
Sato hurried to the direction of the gate with a solemn expression, and Takagi also followed because he was worried, only Takata still did not move, but continued to ask Chiba, "Didn't anyone keep watch?" ”
"No," Chiba reacted, "They all appeared one after another at intervals of 10 minutes, so we waited until the first person was recovered, and then we sent someone to chase the second person, at least one person was watching, so no one else should leave the room......"
"Officer!"
The three people who were waiting said impatiently: "We really didn't see any hammer men, can you let us go back first?" It's okay to record a confession when the work is over......"
"This ......"
"I'm afraid not."
Originally, Chiba saw that several people were very busy, and his heart was a little loose, but he was interrupted by Gao Cheng.
"I can't leave yet." Gao Cheng smiled at several couriers and delivery people.
"Make no mistake, you're the detective, not the police!"
"I'm also a special adviser to the Search Section."
In the face of a few people who were annoyed, Gao Cheng always had a smile on his face.
His status as a special adviser may not be as good as that of the Public Safety Committee of the National Police Agency, but he is not muddy, and the special adviser of the Metropolitan Police Department's Search Section can eat well in other places, let alone in Tokyo.
"I'm sorry, I suspect the hammer man is in the middle of the three of you." Gao Cheng said directly regardless of the ugly faces of several people.
