Chapter 13: Breakthrough?

Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.

Tang Ke first owed a large number of gambling debts, and was urged to repay the debts by spraying red paint at the door of his house. Then he was killed now, so it was not clear elsewhere, at least as far as the Cuilin community was concerned, the people in the community seemed to think that Tang Ke was killed because he couldn't pay the money.

With the surveillance video, Zhao Ming and the others did not immediately return to the police station. They decided to follow the information provided by the property director and first go to the chess and card room where Tang Ke often mingled before his death.

It's just that, perhaps because they are too anxious, the two of them, who never gamble money, ignore the impact of the police uniform on places like chess and card rooms, as well as on those gamblers.

No, as soon as the two of them stepped into the large chess and card room that was said to be Tang Ke's most frequent hanging, the people inside actually rushed to the back door without hesitation, and Zhao Ming couldn't catch up even if he wanted to.

Fortunately, although the gamblers ran away, at least some people couldn't run away. Let's say the owner of a chess and card room.

To be precise, it should be the proprietress who still has the charm of the proprietress who looks very nervous. Zhao Ming quickly arrived at the chess and card room, which was already empty, and knew the reason why those gamblers fled in a hurry.

Judging from the picture on the mahjong table, those people are obviously not just playing a little mahjong.

Realizing this, Zhao Ming was somewhat hesitant. Although it is said that gambling is under the control of the police, since he has found out, making a few phone calls to block this place is basically just a gesture.

"Get down to business first." Unexpectedly, Su Tingting's eyesight on the side was really powerful, and she could easily see what Zhao Ming was thinking, and she opened her mouth and whispered a reminder.

Zhao Ming nodded, and glanced at the picture on the mahjong table again, he knew that this might be a good opportunity for the proprietress to explain honestly.

"Boss, do you know that it is illegal to gather a crowd to gamble?" Zhao Ming said, pretending to walk around slowly, "I see that you have a lot of activities here, what is this?" ”

Zhao Ming stretched out his hand and pointed to a set of mahjong that had just been set up on one of the tables and had not had time to be issued.

At this point, the proprietress was so frightened that she was already trembling. Of course, this may be mainly because she looked out of the gate and found the police car with the word "criminal police" printed on it.

"Two ...... Two police officers, my ....... is just begging for a living. ”

One sings blackface and the other whiteface, which is an old-fashioned, but often very effective method. It's just that Zhao Ming didn't inform Su Tingting in advance, so he was looking at him at the moment, and he wasn't sure that Su Tingting would understand.

Fortunately, Su Tingting did understand, and she cooperated very well.

"Tang Ke is in the chess and card room, and most of the time he plays mahjong. Occasionally I play something else. If you win or lose, when it is less, it is a few thousand. There are tens of thousands of dollars in many times, but there is such a thing as gambling, winning or losing, I can't be too sure how much money he has lost in the past few years, but I think it shouldn't be too much. The proprietress said.

"Ah, you ask me if I know who sprayed the words of Tang Ke's family? Officer, I don't really know. It probably wouldn't have been done by the same people we play with. ”

"Why? Because he has been playing here for the past few years, Tang Ke will either settle the money on the spot, or he will definitely pay it off the next time he comes, otherwise no one will take him to play. Moreover, the spray words you are talking about, involving that extent, it is estimated that he has to owe at least hundreds of thousands, or even millions. ”

"Actually, to be honest, the gamblers here are still quite good. Everyone often plays here, passing the time, once raw and twice cooked, if the real bet is big, they won't play. The proprietress said this, still trying to clear up the connection between herself and Tang Ke.

Zhao Ming is not surprised by this, normal people will do this.

When asked if Tang Ke had any good friends and brothers, or regular customers who hadn't come back in the last few days, the proprietress who shook her head after thinking for a while didn't look like she was lying.

Sure enough, it wasn't so easy to find out which five people the five blood samples belonged to. Zhao Ming thought to himself, they already had a basic understanding of the information they could learn here, and it was time to leave.

I didn't think about it, Su Tingting, who was staring at the record book, didn't know what to think, and her brows were so furrowed that she was about to squeeze together, but she didn't have the slightest intention of leaving.

Zhao Ming was in charge of singing blackface, and he couldn't say anything directly, so he had to step forward and touch Su Tingting.

Su Tingting came back to her senses, she first glanced at Zhao Ming, and then looked straight at the proprietress again.

Immediately, it is estimated that Zhao Ming was leaving, and the proprietress who was already relieved in her heart shook her body suddenly, as if she was afraid.

"Officer....... what's wrong, what's wrong?"

"I noticed that you said that your gamblers here are not bad, and what you mean by this, do you know where there are gamblers with bad character?" Su Tingting's question was meaningful.

The proprietress changed her face drastically, and a face that did not show much old age immediately covered it. This shows that she is not just afraid, but afraid.

…….

In the car back to the police station, Zhao Ming couldn't help but be curious, "Why did you suddenly think of that?" ”

Su Tingting, who had made a major discovery, was not complacent, and this alone had already made Zhao Ming praise her in his heart. "Or because of the situation outside Donko's house, I think he may have borrowed loan sharks for gambling money. But he was also a gambler, so it was most likely that some of the people on the market specialized in lending money gave him money. As a result, I guessed that Tangko's main gambling venue was an underground casino. ”

Zhao Ming nodded, he clearly knew that he hadn't thought about it in that direction.

"Things gather by like, and people are divided by groups." Su Tingting suddenly added another sentence, but what she said seemed to be that she had a deep understanding of this.

"It's possible that those five people were friends of Donko at the underground casino, and I think it would be a good break there." Facing Shen Bin, Su Tingting reported.

"Do you know where the underground casino is?" Shen Bin asked, he was very aware of the concealment and privacy of underground casinos, in short, it was probably not easy for ordinary people to get in.

"It is not known at the moment, some people know where. But it seems that because the owner of this underground casino is quite powerful, no one dares to say it. ”

Zhao Ming felt that Su Tingting seemed to have an idea, and similarly, Shen Bin also noticed it, so he saw Shen Bin raise his head and look at Su Tingting.

Shen Bin looked at it for a while, "Do you have an idea?" ”

"I think it's still the old trick, we disguise ourselves as gamblers to sneak in, the casino wants to make money, pretend to be high rollers, and most of them who are greedy will take the bait." Su Tingting said, and then added, "I'm willing to disguise and blend in." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Ming's heart was shocked. He felt that Su Tingting's meaning seemed to have a little taste of personal emotion.

"We're arranging this tomorrow morning, but the two of you have been recognized today, and it is estimated that you can't participate in the action, and I will arrange for others."

"But I can put makeup in......."

"No way!" Shen Bin refused very simply.
