Chapter XVI: Top Secret Archives

Not a single cent of the money in the vault was lost,

There is no shortage of gold hoarded,

But one thing was missing.

In the office of the special case team, the red telephone on Bai Jingyu's desk rang.

This kind of red phone is also known as the "red machine", is a kind of confidential telephone, only senior leaders can use, very mysterious, in China refers to the special contact number of leaders at or above the provincial and ministerial military level, independent of the telecommunications system, and after encryption, the communication network and the civilian network have been strictly isolated.

The phone on Bai Jingyu's desk was at least from someone at or above the deputy ministerial level, and when the phone was connected, Bai Jingyu, who had always been very well-buried, lost his temper.

Bai Jingyu shouted: "What do you think of our special case team? ”

What the other party said, Bai Jingyu said: "No, resolutely no." ”

Bai Jingyu said: "Painting a dragon is a person, not a thing!" You can borrow what you want. ”

The other party did not relent, Bai Jingyu listened carefully, then scolded with a smile and hung up the phone.

Bai Jingyu called Hualong to the office and said, "The military wants to borrow you by name to help solve a case." ”

"There is no one in the military, right, and they are asking for help from us." ”

Bai Jingyu said: "I have agreed, I hope you will live up to expectations." ”

Hualong said: "This must be a shocking case, and my pressure is not small." ”

Bai Jingyu said: "This is a theft case. ”

The dragon said: "What are you looking for me for petty theft?" ”

Bai Jingyu said: "Comrade Hualong, please be serious, this case is not trivial, involving national security and interests, they will transfer the file over in a while, and then escort you to the scene of the crime, you must keep the file on the way, once it is lost or leaked, you will be legally responsible." The classification of the archives is top secret, and except for the needs of handling cases, only the leaders of the public security department at or above the deputy department level have the right to do so."

"Having said so much, it's still a theft. ”

Fengyuan City, Izumo Mountain.

A city, the main industrial area of the region. A military vehicle brought the painting dragon to the city's public security bureau, and after the case was handed over, the heads of the various departments of the public security bureau sat in the conference room and whispered, confused, because the case was kept secret, and they did not know that there was a big case in the city that shocked Zhōng Nán Hǎi. Hualong and Secretary Zhao, the leader of the Public Security Bureau, walked into the conference room, Hualong carried a lockbox, a pair of handcuffs handcuffed the box and Hualong's wrists together, Hualong sat on the rostrum, opened the handcuffs, and took out the case file in the box.

Secretary Zhao presided over the meeting, first introduced the brilliant achievements of the special case team, and then asked Hualong to speak about the case.

Hualong said: "Something is wrong, you all turn off your mobile phones, no one is allowed to take pictures and videos, the case needs to be kept confidential, even family members can't tell it." ”

The captain of the national security brigade said: "What's the big deal, why don't I know, is it a serial murder case?" ”

The captain of the criminal police brigade sitting next to him said, "We haven't had any major cases here recently." ”

"There was a theft. ”

The captain of the security brigade said: "There are thefts every day, as for the importance of it? ”

"The vault of the People's Bank of this city was stolen. ”

The theft of the vault is serious, and it is also the first time that a vault has been stolen in the city

case, everyone speculated that the amount of theft must be very huge.

"I didn't lose a cent of the money in the vault, and I didn't lose a lot of gold, but I lost one thing. ”

Hualong took out a photograph from the case file and held it up for everyone to see, which showed a rectangular and delicate-looking steel plate, the size of 100 yuan.

The heads of various departments of the Public Security Bureau are well-informed, but no one can say exactly what it is.

"This thing can make you the richest man in China, or even the richest man in the world, you can buy a country, or you can destroy a country." ”

What was stolen from the vault was the 1999 version of the fifth set of 100 yuan bill templates!

The 1999 version of the red 100 yuan banknote has been gradually replaced by the 2005 and 2015 editions, but there is still a renminbi in circulation on the market, from the hand-engraved template to the printing factory to go through more than ten processes, the banknote template embodies the world's banknote original engraving field of the world's well-known engraving gravure technology, which is also the most critical anti-counterfeiting technology.

This template is about to be retired from the stage of history, and the armed police force is responsible for transporting the template from the banknote printing company to the central bank for preservation. They developed an escort plan, and because the distance was not far, they chose road transportation.

The armed police vehicles were forced to stay in Fengyuan City for one night because of the weather, and the vehicles in front of them were continuously rear-ended, and the highway was closed.

The vault is located on the second basement level of the bank and includes several layers of security for security.

1. The first is a simple iron door, and when you enter, the passage to the vault is inclined downward, and there are no stairs, which is to facilitate the staff to transport cash by cart. This area is a handover area with a cash sorting room and a security duty room. During the day, people come and go, bags and boxes full of money are transported to the sorting room by carts, and all kinds of expensive sorting and strapping equipment are here. At night, cash is stored in the warehouse, and two security guards with shotguns are guarding the warehouse in the duty room.

2. The outer door of the vault is a stainless steel structure, and if you want to open it, you must first press the fingerprint by the bank leader in charge of the vault, and then open the door of the vault at the same time by two treasury clerks with different keys. As soon as the door is past the end of work, the "mobile alarm system" will be activated, and once someone breaks or opens the door, an alarm will pop up on the remote monitoring computer: the vault door mobile alarm! Vault door mobile alarm! Vault door mobile alarm!

3. After entering the vault is an underground passage, also known as the buffer area, 24 hours without dead angle monitoring, this area is installed with a shockproof, fireproof and waterproof security system, the walls, floors and ceilings are made of reinforced concrete, embedded steel plates.

Fourth, the inner door of the vault is similar to the one in the movie, a huge round door, and there is a rotating code turntable on the door, engraved with a total of 100 numbers from 0 to 99. To open the door, the turntable must be turned to the correct number four times in succession, for a total of 100 million possible combinations, and the correct password will open the door.

5. After entering the vault, there are rows of large safes, each safe has an independent password and key, and is equipped with a vibration sensor, if someone tries to destroy the safe in any way, such as using an electric drill or prying, the vibration sensor will immediately send an alarm to the monitoring center.

6. The infrared alarm system and high-definition monitoring system are readily available in the vault, and there is also a set of air exchange system.

The vault is impregnable, and the banknote template is stored here in a foolproof manner.

The next day, however, the template was gone.

After inspecting the scene, the armed police found that the thieves had hardly used violence in the process of committing the crime, and the gate had not been damaged without any traces, and it was opened completely in accordance with the normal process. During the entire process of the theft, the alarms and surveillance systems inside and outside the vault were completely unresponsive.

It's a perfect crime.

In recent years, almost all of the treasury thefts that have occurred in domestic banks have been self-theft.

The staff on duty in the vault of a bank in Heilongjiang obtained the vault password through peeping, and found an accomplice on the Internet, who was known as "the person who did big things", and the two of them cooperated inside and outside to steal 3 million cash from the vault.

A cadre of a bank in Guangxi was demoted to an ordinary worker, disgruntled, took advantage of his work to steal the bank's vault, and out of sympathy, threw 200,000 yuan to his colleagues, but was caught before he could escape.

In a bank in Hebei, two treasury clerks conspired to steal the vault, and the amount involved was as high as 50 million yuan. It was also the largest treasury theft since the founding of the People's Republic of China, in which the president and two deputy governors were dismissed from their posts and the two main culprits were executed.

The banknote template was stolen and was initially suspected to be an internal theft, but the bankers were investigated one by one and no suspicious person was found.

The bank only temporarily provided a vault as a storage place at the request of the superiors, and the theft made the bank feel wronged.

The armed police officers responsible for escorting are all active-duty soldiers, and according to regulations, the police have no right to investigate suspected crimes committed by active-duty soldiers. The military security department undertook the investigation work, investigated for a month, and returned without success, and the armed police in charge of escorting the police at that time also ruled out the suspicion of committing the crime.

The case was reported to the top level layer by layer, and the leader's instructions were very simple, expressing anger in a big vernacular and three exclamation marks on the case file: whoever lost it was responsible for finding it!!

The military security department remembered one person - Draw a dragon.

Hua Long is an armed police instructor, has the status of a soldier, and is a member of the special case team of the Ministry of Public Security, so it is most appropriate for him to be responsible for solving this case.

Hualong said: "This case, not only the military and the police attach great importance to it, but also the covert front secret service department secretly intervenes in the investigation. ”

Secretary Zhao said: "The counterfeit banknotes they make will become genuine money, and the entire country's financial system will be impacted." ”

The captain of the criminal police brigade said: "If the thieves designed a seamless plan, how did they do it? You know, highway closures and temporary storage of formwork in vaults are a matter of chance. ”

"The military investigated for a month and thought that this was the work of your local thieves, and that this group of thieves was not a single person, but a gang, and their original intention was to steal the vault, and they stole the banknote template by mistake," said Hualong. ”

The captain of the security brigade said, "We have a lot of thieves here, but those who dare to steal the vault are considered big thieves." ”

"Whether it's a thief or a thief, he'll definitely be caught." I also have a very important task this time, which is to select a policeman from your bureau to join our special case team. ”

Secretary Zhao said: "How to choose? ”

The dragon said: "Martial arts! ”
