Chapter 14: The Cattle Theft
Captain Song Qiang, he didn't just come to Li Shun's house to look at the cabinet, he was recently overwhelmed by a serial theft.
Three months ago, Lijia Village, the village elder, reported that a half-month-old calf had been stolen.
Seven days later, the masses reported that the cow of the old Dou family in Doujiazhuang was stolen.
Until half a month ago, there were six cases of livestock theft in Kuaiwan Township, and all the cattle and horses and donkeys that were stolen were farmers' families.
Nowadays, there are very few tractors, and cattle are the main force of arable land, and cattle are the pillars of farmers' survival.
A cow costs about 2,000 yuan, a calf costs about 1,000 yuan, and the amount involved has exceeded 10,000 yuan.
The amount of money involved in the case was huge, and the social impact was extremely bad, so the public security organs immediately set up a special task force.
Six theft cases were investigated together, and Song Qiang was the leader of the task force and shouldered the burden of solving the case.
The special case team investigated and visited for half a month, but the only clues were broken, and although the case was small, it was difficult to detect.
Because they could not find the stolen goods, the cows and donkeys would be killed and sold for meat, and the hides would be made into leather shoe belts.
Thieves cannot be found through stolen goods, but can only be obtained by thieves when they steal.
It's too difficult, and Turning Township is the largest township in the county, with a population of more than 30,000 people.
The police force is seriously insufficient, and there is no progress in the case, and yesterday the county leaders talked to Song Qiang:
"Xiao Song, have you caught the cattle thief?"
"Report to the leader, we have reformulated the investigation plan......"
"Didn't catch it? I'll give you another half a month, go get busy. β
The leader looked down at the newspaper, Song Qiang chuckled in his heart, and cold sweat soaked his shirt.
This is the ultimatum, the leadership has run out of patience.
The task force worked overtime until the early hours of the morning, and Song Qiang dragged his tired body back home.
When I woke up my wife He Meizhi while making a supper, He Meizhi said:
"Xiaoling wants to go to Lijia Village to see the wardrobe, tomorrow happens to be Sunday, let's go and have a look."
Song Qiang, who was already on fire, couldn't hold back his anger for a while:
"It's all burning eyebrows, look at the hammer's wardrobe? If I can't solve the case within half a month, I'll have to roll up and get out! β
"If you don't do it, I'll go to the temple and burn high incense! You look in the mirror and see how thin you have become? He Meizhi cried bitterly.
The crying woke up Song Xiaoling, and the mother and daughter hugged their heads and cried.
Song Qiang let out a long sigh and squatted on the ground with his hands holding his hair.
Suddenly, Song Qiang thought of Li Shun, who made furniture for him.
Li Shun is from Lijia Village, and the first case of cattle theft occurred in Lijia Village.
I didn't visit Lijia Village once, although I have visited many times.
So he took his wife and daughter to Lijia Village, and took a look at the furniture by visiting the case.
Or by looking at the furniture and visiting the case by the way, what if there is an unexpected gain?
Li Shun's house, Song Qiangqiang smiled:
"Three months ago, the village chief lost a calf, do you have any impressions?"
Li Shun nodded, he was too impressed, the cattle thief was Zhao Datou who was slapped in the face by him.
"The village chief is easy to offend people, you should know who in the village has a conflict with the village chief, right?" Song Qiang asked.
Song Qiang suspected that the motive of the cattle thief for stealing the cattle for the first time was revenge, and after tasting the sweetness, he became a repeat offender.
"Uncle Qiang, I feel that you are in a hurry to go to the doctor."
Song Qiang was stunned, shook his head and sighed:
"The case is serious, and the leaders demand that the case be solved as soon as possible. I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it, I want to pick a son and leave. β
"Uncle Qiang, mobilize the masses, the power of the masses is huge. If you really can't do it, you will offer a high reward, and there will be a brave man under the heavy reward. β
"It's launched, and there's a bounty. The bureau offered a thousand yuan, offered a reward for clues to solve the case, and collected a bunch of useless clues. β
Song Qiang sighed, and Li Shun felt happy in his heart.
After a lot of nonsense, the bounty was finally put out.
In his previous life, Li Shun avenged his sister and imprisoned and tortured Zhao Datou.
Under Miki, Zhao Datou confessed his criminal record in detail.
From stealing pigeons, to stealing cattle and horses, to stealing cars.
Li Shun commissioned a security company to investigate the details.
For example, on a certain day in a certain year, a certain month, Zhao Datou stole something somewhere, and used this information to send Zhao Datou to prison food.
Whenever he misses his sister, Li Shun will look at the information and incriminating evidence.
So he remembered very well that on the full moon night ten days later, Zhao Datou would steal the cattle of the old Duan family in Duanjiazhuang.
What if Zhao Datou stole the Duan family's cattle and caught him and handed him over to Song Qiang?
In this way, he can not only repay the favor owed to Song Qiang in his previous life, but also clean up Zhao Datou, and get a bounty of 1,000 yuan.
Three birds with one stone.
The bounty of 1,000 yuan, plus the salary for Song Qiang to make furniture, can make up enough for the engagement money of 1,888 yuan.
When the time comes, go to Han Ying's house to get engaged, so that Han Ying will be upgraded from girlfriend to fiancΓ©e.
Thinking of this, Li Shun smiled and said:
"Who does Village Chief Li have a conflict with, you should ask Village Chief Li, how can outsiders know?"
"I've asked a long time ago, and none of them are suspects. I'm wondering if Village Chief Li will offend someone unknowingly,"
"Well, it's possible." Li Shun thought about it carefully and said:
"My mother is coming back soon, you wait for her, the women's family likes to inquire about Zhang's family, Li Jiaxiao."
"Medium." Song Qiang looked at his watch, it was already twelve o'clock at noon.
Ten minutes later, Li Daxia came back early to cook, and his parents and little sister were still working in the field.
Zhou Xiang went to the kitchen to help, and Li Shun asked the eldest sister to cook more.
Song Qiang was not hypocritical, and decided to drag his family to eat. I'll give you four hundred for a wardrobe of two hundred, it's not too much to eat, right?
Half an hour later, the family came back, Li Xiaoxia chatted with Song Xiaoling, and Du Rou showed Song Qiang what the Rural Intelligence Bureau was.
The Rural Intelligence Bureau, abbreviated as the Rural FBI, is made up of moms and grandmothers.
It can make you famous, but it can also make you ruined, and its horror is no less than that of Dongchang Jinyiwei.
Du Rou said that Ma Mian had a conflict with the village chief, and that day the village chief's dog had a soak of urine in front of Ma Mian's house.
He also said that Li Kui had a conflict with the village chief, and the children of the two families quarreled that day.
In the end, Song Qiang was frightened and picked a few reliable records.
After lunch, Du Rou continued to gossip, so frightened that Song Qiang drove a motorcycle and ran away with his daughter-in-law.
"Mom, how far is Duanjiazhuang from our village?"
"Almost twelve miles, what are you asking for?"
"Just ask. There is a man named Duan Jiu in Duanjiazhuang, and others call him Lao Duan, do you know him? β
"I've heard that his daughter is good-looking, and he wants to meet her daughter?"
"I don't want to."
Li Shun couldn't help frowning, it seemed that Zhao Datou's bounty was not easy to take.
Zhao Datou will choose to steal cattle in the second half of the night, after the stolen goods are obtained, how to explain to Song Qiang and the public security?
The third watch didn't sleep at night, ran to Duanjiazhuang, twelve miles away, and accidentally caught the cattle thief?
I can't explain it at all!
The police are not stupid, and they will definitely suspect Li Shun.
If Zhao Datou beats a rake and slanders Li Shun as an accomplice in theft, he will be in the nest because of the uneven distribution of spoils......
Li Shun scratched his head, it was really a dog.
Obviously, there is a windfall of 1,000 yuan in front of me, but I can't put it in my pocket, which is a little uncomfortable......
