Li Ancheng's appearance in Yang Fatzi's antique shop is not a coincidence. Under the leadership of Lao Lu, we visited a number of well-known antique shops in Wanzhou, and found traces of Li Ancheng. The owners of the antique shops all said that Li Ancheng was eager to sell this four-breasted animal pattern bronze mirror of the Western Han Dynasty, but the price was too high, and Li Ancheng was unwilling to provide the source basis and relevant information of the bronze mirror, so the legitimate big merchants did not dare to take it easily. Of course, small businesses don't have such abundant funds, so the bronze mirror in Li Ancheng's hand has not been sold as of today.

Li Ancheng shuttled through the major antique shops in Wanzhou with the stolen goods, apparently confident that his tomb robbery had not been discovered. Judging from his trajectory, he estimated that he would visit the antique market in Wanzhou. However, yesterday the police had already carried out a search of Li Ancheng's home, and many of his relatives and friends already knew that the police were looking for him, so it was inevitable that someone would report to Li Ancheng during the period from yesterday to today.

I told Lao Lu about my worries, and Lao Lu said that since yesterday, checkpoints have been set up on all major traffic arteries in Wanzhou, and unless Li Ancheng can fly, it is impossible for him to escape from Wanzhou.

After Lao Lu said this, I dispelled my doubts, it seems that it is a matter of time before Li Ancheng is arrested, because yesterday Li Ancheng was still wandering around the antique shop in Wanzhou, so he must still be in Wanzhou now. Now, he has been trapped in Wanzhou and has become a turtle in an urn. But I know that this turtle is terrifying, and he can stick out his head and bite at any time.

At the same time, the results of the investigation of the Coke bottle that Li Ancheng had drunk, which was sold at a supermarket in Wangjiapo.

After checking the surveillance video in the urban area, it was found that Li Ancheng's movement trajectory also pointed to Wangjiapo, and one of the surveillance images clearly filmed Li Ancheng walking into an alley near Wangjiapo.

From the guidance of the sales office of Coke and the surveillance footage, I concluded that Li Ancheng's stronghold should be in the alley of Wangjiapo.

However, there is also a difficulty here, the alley is actually a vegetable market, with a lot of grocery stores and small vegetable vendors, and its personnel structure is very complicated.

Moreover, the alley extends in all directions, and there are a large number of residents around, if the entire tomb robber gang is in this place, then there will be a great risk to round up these tomb robbers. Because these outlaws, at a critical juncture, are likely to jump over the wall in a hurry, and the lethal weapons in their hands will pose a great threat to the residents without a reason.

The top priority at the moment is to determine the specific location where Li Ancheng is harboring.

Tang Zhenguo and I, with Xiao Liu in civilian clothes, decided to conduct a secret investigation of the situation in the alley.

The situation in the alley is very complicated, although it is an alley, it is actually a very narrow urban side road, but it was later planned as a vegetable market, so the entry and exit of vehicles are prohibited, but motorcycles and small tricycles still shuttle between them.

We looked at the shops in the alley and found that only one had a surveillance device installed outside the door. Of course, this is easy to understand, the small shops here are mostly grocery stores and grocery stores, and the owners of these small shops cannot be said to have a weak sense of safety, but it seems that there is a bit of a fuss about this kind of low-cost store to invest in camera surveillance.

This small store with surveillance is a small supermarket, and this supermarket has set up surveillance probes both inside and outside the store. I observed that there were nine probes set up in the not too big storefront, and the roller shutter door of the store was obviously a new door that had just been replaced, and it seemed that the safety awareness of the shopkeeper was forced out by some situation. As the saying goes, eat a trench and grow a wisdom.

Xiao Liu showed his police ID, saying that he wanted to check the surveillance video and look for a suspect, and the owner of the supermarket was very cooperative.

In the surveillance video, we checked for a long time and finally found Li Ancheng's back. The surveillance showed that he had been walking deeper into the alley, carrying a black sports bag, which I guess contained the stolen goods of the tomb robbery.

This video does not provide much information, and just as we were about to leave the supermarket, the owner of the supermarket suddenly said: "Comrade policeman, is this person a thief or a robber?" ”

I glanced at Xiao Liu, and then said to the shopkeeper, "This person is a habitual thief. ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he gritted his teeth and said: "I hate this kind of bastard the most, a month ago, my small shop was broken open and stolen a lot of goods." Comrade policeman, this man, I remember, once came to my store with this backpack on his back to buy something. ”

My eyes lit up and I quickly asked, "What did he buy?" ”

The shopkeeper recalled for a while, flipped through the computer again, and said, "He bought a lot of food, including instant noodles, snacks, cigarettes and alcohol, enough for him to eat alone for several days." Oh, by the way, I remembered, and he asked me why I didn't have frozen Coke, and I helped him look through the freezer, but the frozen Coke was all sold out, and he didn't buy it except for the ones on the shelves that weren't frozen. ”

I asked Li Ancheng again about the time when he came to the supermarket to buy goods, and the shopkeeper checked it and told me that the time was exactly the day before the three bodies were found to be burned.

I thanked the owner and left the supermarket.

While walking, while observing the environment around the alley, he said to Xiao Liu: "It's not far from the time for us to close the net." ”

Xiao Liu asked, "Do you know where Li Ancheng lives?" ”

I smiled and said, "Maybe it's already in our field of vision." ”

After saying this, Xiao Liu and Tang Zhenguo raised their eyes and looked around, as if they were looking for something.

Tang Zhenguo asked curiously: "Just tell me, where is it?" ”

I looked at Tang Zhenguo's heartfelt expression, so I lit a cigarette and said, "I can't say the exact location, but the den of this group of tomb robbers is not far from the small supermarket just now." ”

Xiao Liu answered: "The den of this group of tomb robbers? Brother Ouyang, do you mean that not only Li Ancheng is hiding nearby, but even the entire tomb robbery gang is nearby? ”

I took a puff of my cigarette and said, "Yes." Just now, the supermarket owner said that he had seen Li Ancheng, and it proved that Li Ancheng bought a lot of food and mentioned Coke, so three points can be deduced. First, Li Ancheng lives in a location not far from the small supermarket, and it can be said that the small supermarket is the closest supermarket to his residence. Second, Li Ancheng buys mostly food, and he buys so much food in one go, obviously not only for himself, but also for others, during the crime, who can he help buy food on his behalf? It is very likely that it is an accomplice in the crime. Third, it is the Coke mentioned by the shopkeeper, this bottle of Coke that Li Ancheng did not buy, he must have bought it in the supermarket in front of him later. And the sale time of that bottle of Coke happened to be not far from the time when Li Ancheng was shopping in the small supermarket, so it can be seen that the bottle of Coke is the Coke we found near the thief cave. In this way, we can draw a circle using these two supermarkets as a reference, with the small supermarket as the center of the circle and the cola supermarket as the arc, and the stronghold of the tomb robbers is likely to be within this circle range. ”

Xiao Liu nodded when he heard this, then looked around again and asked, "Thief ......"

"Knives! Knives should be available in the supermarket at the front. I said aloud, with the elated expression of a shopper.

Xiao Liu first looked at me in surprise, then glanced at his eyes, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Okay, let's go to the supermarket in front and buy some wine by the way, hahaha." ”

However, Tang Zhenguo, a straight tough guy, stared expressionlessly at a person wearing a peaked cap and carrying a sports bag, less than two meters away from him in the crowd. This person is Li Ancheng with a fierce face.

I thought to myself, oh no, why is this Tang Zhenguo so elm-headed, staring at something.

Li Ancheng was not a fool, he had obviously sensed Tang Zhenguo's threatening eyes, but he was still silent, walking forward with the same pace, just pressing the cap down.

I stood beside Tang Zhenguo, and I could hear Tang Zhenguo's breathing quite heavy, and his thick arms were already tight, it seemed that Tang Zhenguo was ready to step forward to capture the thief.

I patted Tang Zhenguo on the shoulder and said, "Don't look bitter and hateful, it's normal for two people to quarrel, hurry up, buy some good food, buy some good wine, and the brothers will accompany you to persuade your sister-in-law." Two couples, fighting at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed, it's not a big deal. ”

When I said this, I kept pressing Tang Zhenguo's shoulders hard, and Li Ancheng also happened to pass us by at this time. I could see from the corner of my eye that Li Ancheng lowered his head slightly, and when he passed us, he slowly turned his head and glanced at Tang Zhenguo, and then let out a contemptuous 'hum'. After he passed us, I whispered, "Don't look back, keep walking." ”

After walking forward for more than ten meters, I walked sideways to a vegetable stall on the side of the road, picked up a section of lotus root, tilted my head slightly, and saw Li Ancheng walking unhurriedly into the distance.

Xiao Liu also picked up a section of lotus root and asked softly, "Do you want to chase it?" ”

I thought about it for a moment and said softly: "Chase, if we can capture him in a place where there are few people, it would be the best, but this person has some ability, and he may be armed with a firearm, so we must be very cautious." Did you bring a gun? ”

Xiao Liu nodded and said, "Bring it." ”

I said, "Okay, keep your distance and stay hidden." He still dared to appear in public, apparently unaware that the police were already hunting him. Immediately contact Lao Lu and ask him to set up an ambush in a few antique shops that Li Ancheng has not been to, he appeared this time, it is likely that he will sell his bronze mirror again, if we don't have a chance in the process of tracking, let Lao Lu capture him in the antique shop. ”

Li Ancheng's sudden appearance really caught me off guard, and just now, I almost acquiesced to Tang Zhenguo rushing up to capture the thief. But reason tells me that it is too dangerous to do this, Li Ancheng is not an ordinary person, Tang Zhenguo cannot capture him in an instant, and if there is a fight and pursuit, it is likely to hurt innocent people. In addition, the stronghold of the tomb robbers may be nearby, and if they are alarmed, the tomb robbers with firearms will be even more out of control.
