Early the next morning.

The third criminal investigation team of the Furong Branch, everyone came to work as usual.

Today is Christmas Eve, and it is also the second day of everyone's work.

Due to the intensity of yesterday's work, everyone seems to be a little comfortable with today's work.

Lu Weiwei still passed the short free time with snacks.

He Junchao suddenly brought a new promotional poster from the small truck downstairs.

As for Officer Wang and Officer Ding, the two came to the interrogation room with a thief, and they met on the bus temporarily, and they were easily arrested.

And Gu Chen is still sorting out the copywriting......

However, for Gu Chen, who has a specialized-level memory, coupled with his ultra-fast hand speed, it can be completed in a very short time.

But just five minutes after the start of work, the landline phone in the office rang.

Gu Chen stretched his body and walked over directly to answer the call: "Hello, this is the third criminal investigation team of the Furong Branch, what do you need help with? Okay, I know, we will send someone over immediately." ”

Hanging up the phone, Lu Weiwei asked Gu Chen with a slight frown: "What's the matter, Senior Brother Gu?" ”

"Just yesterday on the same street where the gas pipeline leaked, the underground vault of a jewelry company was robbed, and the lost jewelry and belongings could be huge. Gu Chen said.

"What? The underground vault of the jewelry company was robbed?" Lu Weiwei was stunned for a moment, and asked weakly: "The underground vault, when you hear the name, it is very high, so the safety factor should be quite high, how can it be ransacked?"

"Didn't the entire street lose power yesterday?" Gu Chen suddenly remembered something.

Lu Weiwei snapped her fingers: "Yes, is it because of that explosion?"

"It's hard to say yet. Gu Chen looked at the time, and hurriedly said: "We have to hurry over and have a look, in addition, I have to inform Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong and let them go to the scene for reinforcements to maintain order." ”

Lu Weiwei said: "I'll inform you, you go and call Lao Wang." ”

"What do you want me to do?" It was also when Lu Weiwei's voice just finished that Officer Wang happened to walk in from outside the door, and he heard Lu Weiwei calling him.

"At the intersection of Rose Street, the underground vault of a jewelry company was ransacked, and the command center told us to go and deal with it immediately. Gu Chen didn't have time to say more, and directly threw Officer Wang's equipment to him.

Officer Wang was also stunned when he heard this, he quickly took off his civilian clothes and said, "Okay, you guys go to drive first, and I'll change my clothes and come." ”

......

......

It didn't take long for the three of them to drive to the intersection of Rose Street, in front of a company called Jixiang Jewelry.

At this moment, Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong, who were patrolling nearby, as well as some auxiliary police, had already arrived at the scene.

Everyone pulled up a cordon on the periphery and told all the onlookers to retreat.

Seeing Gu Chen get out of the car and come to the scene, Ding Liang hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Gu Chen, are you finally here?"

"How is the situation at the scene?" Gu Chen also asked as he walked, his steps as fast as the wind.

Ding Liang also quickened his pace and followed: "The loss is a bit heavy, there are more than 100 safes in the underground vault, and more than 40 have been pried open, and the value is still being counted." ”

"How can this be?" Gu Chen also frowned, and walked directly in front of a man wearing the uniform of Jixiang Jewelry Company.

He glanced at the man's badge and asked, "Are you the manager here?"

"That's right, I'm the manager of Jixiang Jewelry Company, and my name is Liu Ping. ”

The middle-aged manager also looked panicked, and it seemed that he had not recovered from the shadow just now.

"What's going on?" Gu Chen turned on the law enforcement recorder and asked him.

"Our vaults were broken open and I ...... We're finished, and we're going to lose a lot this time. When the manager said this, the whole person was annoyed, and he squatted directly on the ground, as if he was about to cry.

"Manager Liu, can you please stand up and speak?" Officer Wang also frowned.

Liu Ping suddenly stood up with a sad face and said: "Comrade policeman, you have to help us, these lost jewels are stored by many merchants on this street, if we can't find them, our company will be finished." ”

"Don't worry. Gu Chen took out the notebook he was carrying, then bit the cap of the pen with his teeth, and asked him, "Tell me clearly what happened to you here, what is the situation in your company? Also, how can the things of other jewelers be stored in your company?"

"That's right. Seeing that Gu Chen didn't know much about his company, Liu Ping explained: "We are a jewelry trading company, and there are many jewelry merchants near Rose Street. ”

"We've been operating on this street for decades, and we've gradually formed this chain. ”

"In addition to doing some jewelry trading in our company, as early as ten years ago, the boss designed an underground vault under the store he bought, and the security factor is also extremely high. ”

"In addition to storing some of our company's important jewelry, we also accept the storage business of other merchants. ”

"Wait. Gu Chen glanced up at Liu Ping and asked him with some confusion: "Other jewelers trust you so much, will they choose to store their precious jewels in your underground vault?"

"That's right. Liu Ping nodded and explained: "Because our vault is a place that is said to be impossible to attack, and the security factor is also extremely high. ”

"Because many merchants have stolen jewelry before, and only the vault of our auspicious jewelry company is solid, so some merchants have begun to find our boss, hoping to temporarily store the more valuable jewelry in the underground vault of our auspicious jewelry company. ”

"At that time, there were a lot of spare spaces in our underground vault, so the boss agreed and accepted the business. ”

"Since then, more and more jewelers have chosen to store their precious jewels in our company's underground vault, until now, where almost the entire Rose Street store its precious jewels. ”

Gu Chen nodded and continued to ask him, "Then when was your company's underground vault looted?"

"Yes...... Probably last night. Liu Ping said.

Gu Chen frowned: "Doesn't anyone of you work the night shift?"

Liu Ping suddenly panicked: "Didn't there be an explosion caused by a leak in a gas pipeline yesterday? All the surrounding electrical circuits were interrupted, and the same is true for our building, but fortunately we have our own power supply system." ”

"But because there was a power outage throughout the daylight yesterday, many businesses on this street chose to close their doors. ”

"We lasted until 6 p.m., and when we saw that the power supply system on Rose Street had not been restored, and the businesses on the whole street had closed for their homes, and the employees were complaining, I temporarily agreed to let everyone go home for the holidays. ”

"It can't be such a coincidence, right?" Lu Weiwei suddenly felt a little suspicious, so she hurriedly asked him: "According to what you say, in this special period, you actually let the whole company go home on vacation?

was also a little overwhelmed by Lu Weiwei's question, Liu Ping's whole person was not good, and replied weakly: "This ...... Who would have thought that someone would choose to steal the underground vault on this day, and I was also forced to be helpless, after all, the whole street is on holiday, and I can't say that I don't give them a holiday. ”

"Besides, our underground vault has never been stolen, and even when other jewelry stores were stolen ten years ago, the underground vault of our auspicious jewelry company is still fine. ”

"It's really because of this that other merchants are willing to deposit their precious jewelry in our auspicious company, but I never expected that after just a little relaxation for one night, our entire underground vault was ransacked. ”

Liu Ping couldn't hide his panic at the moment, and said tremblingly: "If you can't catch this gang of thieves, then I may be unlucky." ”

"Do you have an automatic alarm system in your underground vault?" Gu Chen suddenly asked again.

Liu Ping was stunned for a moment, and immediately nodded: "Yes." ”

"Did it ring yesterday?" Gu Chen said.

At this moment, Liu Ping was a little flustered, and the words came to his lips, but they suddenly stopped.

Seeing this, Lu Weiwei was not in pain, and asked him directly: "Did you ask if the alarm system rang yesterday? You should know this, right?"

"Yes...... Yes. Liu Ping spoke in a very small voice, and he didn't even dare to raise his head.

Officer Wang was also so angry: "If the alarm system sounds, how can it be stolen?

Liu Ping was silent, still keeping his head down.

However, a uniformed female staff member next to her said: "Our alarm system is a bit old, and there are often some abnormal situations before, and false alarms often occur." ”

"So you, as the manager, didn't you go to verify last night?" Gu Chen said.

When Liu Ping heard this, he quickly waved his hand and said: "No, it's not like this, I did receive a remote alarm last night, but at that time, I thought it was a false alarm like what my colleague said." ”

"So I called a security guard on our company floor to take a look, and he told me that everything was fine in the vault and that nothing out of the ordinary was there. ”

"He also showed me the scene on video, and it was true that nothing happened at the time, so I didn't take it seriously, but ...... Who knows? These thieves ransacked just last night, I ...... I can't prevent it. ”

Liu Ping followed Gu Chen to the hall, and Gu Chen then asked, "Call me the security guard who was on duty at night yesterday." ”

"He doesn't go to work today. Liu Ping looked at Gu Chen's slightly changed face, so he said again: "But I have already called him to inform him and ask him to come over quickly, I guess he should be on the road now." ”

"Manager Liu. It was just when Liu Ping's words fell that a middle-aged man in civilian clothes walked into the hall quickly.

Liu Ping hurriedly introduced to Gu Chen: "This is the security guard Lao Zhang who was on duty last night, he was on the night shift last night, you can ask him any questions." ”

was also confused by the sudden situation, and the security guard Lao Zhang was also stunned for a moment, so he walked to Liu Ping's side and asked him in a low voice: "Manager Liu, our underground vault...... Was it really pried open?"

"Is that still fake?" Liu Ping looked at him and was also a little angry, and said angrily: "Didn't you say it was okay last night? But what's going on now?

"Yes...... But it was really fine last night, and you Manager Liu have to speak with your conscience. The security guard Lao Zhang was also panicked, and hurriedly explained:

"Isn't there a lot of problems with our alarm system? I often have false alarms, and I went to check the underground vault yesterday according to your request, but it is really fine. ”

"And I also showed you the live video, you said it was a false alarm at the time, and now that something is wrong, you can't throw all the problem on me. ”

was also afraid of being burned, and the security guard Lao Zhang was also pale with fright, and quickly dissociated himself from the theft of the underground vault.

"Don't make any noise. Gu Chen also saw that the two began to pass the buck to each other, so he said to the security guard Lao Zhang: "Since you were the security guard on the night shift last night, and the underground vault was stolen, you also have a great responsibility." ”

"Wronged. When the security guard Lao Zhang heard this, the whole person was in a hurry, and quickly said: "Didn't there be an accident yesterday? Everyone is on holiday, and of course I am also on vacation." ”

"But late at night, Manager Liu called me again and said that the alarm system of the underground vault had sounded again, and asked me to take a look. ”

"You must know that this big night, it is very cold, and it is not easy for me to climb out of the bed, and I have to wear clothes and ride a battery car to the company to see. ”

"Besides, I've checked the vault too, and it's no problem, of course I'll have to go back to sleep, after all, I didn't go to work last night. ”

"You didn't go to work last night?" Officer Wang frowned, then looked at Liu Ping and said, "That means that there was no one in your building last night, right?"

Liu Ping was completely panicked at the moment, and he didn't know what to say, so he could only nod stunned.

"It's just nonsense. Officer Wang also shook his head, pointed to the big hole in the wall of the underground vault, and said angrily: "This wall must be more than a meter thick, right? ”

"But even if you have to use large tools, you will inevitably make a huge noise, but are you pigs?

"Comrade policeman, you dissipate your anger first. Seeing that Officer Wang was powerless to complain about the internal management loopholes of Jixiang Jewelry Company, the security guard Lao Zhang also comforted: "This can't be blamed on us, after all, the power is turned on at more than seven o'clock in the evening, and everyone doesn't work overtime." ”

"How do we know that these thieves will choose to come and steal that night? If we knew that such a thing was going to happen, we would have someone on duty. ”

"Forget it. Officer Wang also waved his hand, not wanting to say anything more: "Now there is no if, if it is useful?

"Yes, yes, yes. Several staff members of Auspicious Jewelry also saw Officer Wang angry, and immediately nodded yes.

And after Gu Chen observed in the underground vault for a while, he also came to Officer Wang's side.

"How is it? Gu Chen. Officer Wang asked.

"It's pretty much what I imagined. Gu Chen was also a little helpless and said: "In the whole process of committing the crime, you must use heavy tools, ordinary small drills can't drill through this wall, and the movement is definitely not small." ”

"Yes. Lu Weiwei also hurriedly answered: "Usually upstairs decoration or something, as long as the little drill rings, the whole unit can be heard clearly." ”

"Just last night, there was such a big movement, and no one paid attention to it? ”

"Possibly. As soon as Lu Weiwei's words fell, Gu Chen retorted directly.

Lu Weiwei was stunned: "Yes...... Is it possible?"

"yes. Gu Chen took two steps outward, pointed outside and said: "Last night, there was construction on the side of the road, and many construction teams were there, I think these thieves must have used the noise frequency created by the construction outside to cover up the direct drilling of the wall." ”

"Huh?" was also said by Gu Chen, and Officer Wang suddenly realized: "According to what you say, it makes sense, as soon as the machine outside sounds, the tools inside also start to work, and as soon as the machine outside stops, the machine inside also stops, so that the direct noise can be covered." ”

Gu Chen nodded, crossed his hands to support his chin, and said lightly: "If this is the case, then this gang of thieves is not simple, it is obvious that they have already prepared it, and the underground vault seems to be the target they have been preparing to steal for a long time." ”

"If you weren't prepared, it would have been difficult to complete such a series of big projects in such a short period of time, and I think it must have been premeditated. ”

"So, the leakage of the gas pipe on the side of the road, and the explosion in the back, are all related to these thieves?" Lu Weiwei also heard Gu Chen's words, and the whole person had some new opinions in her heart.

Gu Chen shook his head: "It's hard to say, but if it's just an accident, then at least it can show that these thieves have seized the opportunity, because if I were a thief and had a long-term and careful plan, I would definitely not let go of this opportunity." ”

"That is to say, these thieves may have been planning to ransack the underground vault of Jixiang Jewelry Company for a long time, and this gas pipeline incident just allowed them to seize the opportunity?"

Gu Chen nodded: "Yes, because the modus operandi is very sophisticated, it doesn't look like a novice at all, or some inexperienced thieves, because to complete this project and bring large tools into the floor, it is difficult to complete it with just one or two people." ”

"This must be a gang crime, and these people seem to be very familiar with the internal structure of Auspicious Jewelry. ”

also heard Gu Chen's explanation, and the staff who were a little flustered before were even more panicked at the moment.

Everyone looked at each other, as if they felt that each other might be members of the underground vault theft, usually inconspicuous, and at the critical moment, it only took one night to ransack the vault.

This is not something that ordinary people can do.

Seeing that everyone was overly nervous, Gu Chen also smiled and said, "You don't have to be like this, I didn't say that this matter has anything to do with you." ”

Seeing that everyone's mood was somewhat relaxed, Gu Chen calmed down and said: "However, this gang of thieves must have been carefully deployed for a long time, maybe a few months, maybe a year, or a few years, because opportunities like yesterday are hard to come by, and these people will not be unaware." ”
