Chapter 1305 - Arrest Warrant
Chapter 1305: Arrest Warrant
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“Tell Captain Zhang that I’m Yang Ming, and he will know.” Yang Ming nodded and said, “Sorry for the bother.”
The police on duty gave a phone call to Captain Zhang upstairs. After a while, Captain Zhang’s voice was heard from the stairs, “Mr. Yang, how come you are here since you just went back to Song Jiang yesterday?”
Since he knew Yang Ming’s real identity last night, he handed the case over. Captain Zhang was at ease with a great mood. His tone speech was naturally very pleasant.
However, he was slightly baffled. Yang Ming had just recently returned to Song Jiang from Donghai yesterday. How come Yang Ming came to Mount Jing today to look for him? Even if Yang Ming came to Mount Jing for business, Yang Ming shouldn’t be coming here, right?
“Let’s find a place to sit down and talk.” Yang Ming smiled and shook hands with Captain Zhang as he spoke.
When Captain Zhang heard Yang Ming, he knew that Yang Ming had something top-secret to discuss with him which could not be said in public. He nodded and said, “Let’s go upstairs and talk in my office.”
Yang Ming and Captain Zhang went all the way up to Captain Zhang’s office. Captain Zhang personally poured a cup of tea for Yang Ming. Yang Ming quickly thanked him. Although the two had no administrative relationship, Captain Zhang was very courteous to Yang Ming; naturally, Yang Ming wouldn’t act bossy.
Captain Zhang closed the office door before sitting down and said to Yang Ming, “Mr. Yang, about the reason you came here…”
“What else is the reason? It is about Sui Yuejin’s case.” Yang Ming shrugged and smiled, “Otherwise, I wouldn’t be here.”
” Oh ? That case. Wasn’t it handed over to you? How come you looked for me?” Captain Zhang felt a shiver deep down in his heart. Did Yang Ming regret it? Did he find the case a bit difficult and want to push it back to me?
” En , I still need Captain Zhang to help in this case.” Yang Ming nodded and said.
After listening to Yang Ming’s words, Captain Zhang’s expression changed slightly. He complained deep down his heart. Yang Ming really came because of this. If he pushes the case back, what do I do?
“Mr. Yang, isn’t there someone taking full charge of this case from your side?” Captain Zhang hesitated and said, “The characters involved in this case are quite complicated. I think it is better off to have someone in charge from your side…”
Yang Ming was slightly shocked. After listening to Captain Zhang’s tone, he knew that Captain Zhang had misunderstood. He waved his hand, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. “Captain Zhang, have you misunderstood? I didn’t mean to push the case back to you…”
” Oh ? Then, Mr. Yang’s intention is…” After listening to Yang Ming, Captain Zhang was somewhat inexplicable. If Yang Ming didn’t mean this, why did he say this?
“On our side, although we are in charge of investigating secret files, it is still necessary for the police to close the case when the case is solved. After all, our institution can’t be disclosed to the public.” Yang Ming said, “It’s like the haunted case in Song Jiang from a while ago. Although I was involved in the investigation, when I finally closed the case, the credit was still with the Song Jiang police.”
Captain Zhang nodded when he heard Yang Ming’s words, but he still didn’t quite understand Yang Ming’s intention. He also knew what Yang Ming had said, but what was the reason for Yang Ming saying this at the moment…?
“I mean, we have already found the suspect. On my side, we can hand the case back to you. You can send the arrest warrant directly,” said Yang Ming.
“What? The suspect has already been found?” Captain Zhang looked at Yang Ming inexplicably with his eyes opened widely. How is this possible? It took less than a day. The case was handed over to the Supernatural Investigation Bureau last night, and yet there was a result at noon today, finding the suspect successfully. What is this speed…
Although Captain Zhang knew that the Supernatural Investigation Bureau was very capable, their speed in solving the case was really amazing. It was simply unbelievable.
“Yes.” Yang Ming nodded. “I have the complete surveillance video of the Sui’s Group Immortal Building at the time.”
“A complete surveillance video?” Captain Zhang revealed a hint of surprise. With this complete video, finding the suspect would be a breeze.
“It’s just here,” Yang Ming said as he took out a DVD and put it in front of Captain Zhang. “The video I have burned on this disc can be played directly with a computer or DVD player.”
“This… then let’s take a look now?” Captain Zhang was excited to pick up the DVD. When the case was solved, the Supernatural Investigation Bureau would naturally not want any merit, so all the credit would typically go to Captain Zhang of the Mount Jing police station.
“Can I trouble Captain Zhang to give a call to the person in charge who took the case file yesterday? I don’t have his contact information.” Yang Ming was embarrassed. They were from the same organization, and yet Yang Ming had no contact information. This was somewhat uncourteous.
However, Yang Ming had joined the Supernatural Investigation Bureau for a short time. It was natural that he did not have the contact information of the people over on that side. Captain Zhang did not think much and directly called Qin An, the person in charge of the Supernatural Investigation Bureau.
“Mr. Qin, I am Zhang Mingyi of the Municipal Criminal Investigation Team,” Captain Zhang said. “Song Jiang’s Yang Ming, Mr. Yang, came over. He is right here at my place. He has found the suspect who killed Sui Yuejin of the Sui’s Group.”
” Oh ? Yang Ming came?” Qin An was surprised. He had heard Xia Bingbao mention that Yang Ming was a capable person. He already had the intention to meet, but there was no chance.
He and Yang Ming belonged to Xia Bingbao’s men. Although they were colleagues, because they belonged to a specialized institution, they usually had no orders or missions. Private contact was a taboo, so Qin An did not take the initiative to find Yang Ming.
Now that there was such an opportunity to handle the case jointly, Qin An naturally wanted to see how capable Yang Ming was, making his own boss, Xia Bingbao, full of praise.
“Yes, Mr. Qin, can you come over?” Captain Zhang’s tone was very polite.
“Okay, I will come over now,” responded Qin An.
Hanging up the phone, Captain Zhang smiled at Yang Ming. “Mr. Qin said he is coming now.”
“Let’s wait for him for a while, then watch this video together.” Yang Ming nodded and replied.
Captain Zhang would have liked to take a look at the video that Yang Ming brought over now, but since Yang Ming said so, he also found it hard to refuse. This case had troubled him for a long time. Now that he had a solution, he was, of course, anxious.
The two people chatted about some trivial things in their daily lives. For the things in the system, none of them took the initiative to raise it. Captain Zhang also did not ask out of curiosity. Some things could not be questioned. Even if it were asked, Yang Ming would not answer. Instead, it would cause disdain.
As for how this video came out, Captain Zhang did not ask. Yang Ming naturally had his channels and means that could not be disclosed.
After a while, a knock came from Captain Zhang’s office door. He quickly responded, “Please come in. The door isn’t locked.”
A tall man in his thirties pushed the door open and went in. He was Qin An, the head of the Supernatural Investigation Bureau in Mount Jing. Due to job interactions, he was a frequent visitor to the Mount Jing police station, so the policeman on duty at the door did not ask Captain Yang in advance and let him in.
Qin An naturally knew Captain Zhang – Zhang Mingyi. Then, the man near Zhang Mingyi must be Yang Ming. Although he looked young, his face was very determined with vicissitudes. Others couldn’t help but involuntarily overestimate his actual age.
Qin An knew Yang Ming’s identity. He was currently a freshman. However, no matter how he looked, he seemed like someone who was twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old or even more mature.
This maturity did not describe someone being old. On the contrary, Yang Ming looked very young. The so-called maturity was just a kind of aura that emerged after experiencing a lot of things.
“Mr. Yang Ming, is it? I am Qin An.” Qin An walked quickly to Yang Ming’s side and extended his right hand.
Yang Ming didn’t dare to look down on Qin An’s identity. Xia Bingbao’s men were not mediocre. This Qin An must have something extraordinary. When Qin An was very enthusiastic about himself, Yang Ming couldn’t act cold. He quickly stood up and shook hands with Qin An in a friendly manner. “Call me Yang Ming. Forget about the mister address; it seems so awkward. We should be at the same level. I will call you Elder Brother Qin.”
“Since you said so, then I will also be your elder brother. I will call you Little Brother Yang.” When Qin An saw that Yang Ming was easy going, and without much ego, he could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Qin An was a veteran in the system. He was in the regular military and was selected and secretly trained to be part of the Supernatural Investigation Bureau. He was unlike Yang Ming who was an expert equipped with great skills and recruited into the investigation bureau later on.
In the beginning, he heard from Xia Bingbao that Yang Ming had a special ability. He was a national treasure and currently the most useful person with special abilities in the investigation bureau.
Although there was no specific info in terms of what that special ability was, it should be quite powerful to get so much respect from Xia Bingbao. Xia Bingbao was the highest-ranking chief of the Supernatural Investigation Bureau responsible for the entire North area. His words were naturally authoritative.
In the past, there was someone with a minor special ability, and he was so arrogant. Qin An met him before and got mistreated. Although he was unusual in his skills, he was not as good as one with a broken special ability. Although many special abilities were useless, such as taking fire bare-handed, they would be very arrogant. Qin An was too lazy to deal with these people.
Xia Bingbao said that Yang Ming was very easygoing. Qin An didn’t believe it at first, but at first sight, he knew that Xia Bingbao was telling the truth. Yang Ming was very approachable.
“Little Brother Yang, I heard that you have found the suspect in Sui Yuejin’s case?” Qin An said, “We have just studied the case on our side. I didn’t expect you to have a result here. What a young hero!”
“Elder Brother Qin, I also got this video by chance.” Yang Ming was somewhat troubled. “One of my… men. He went to the Sui Group’s Immortal Building. In the end, he found the data backup in a cabinet in the security room. He realized that the hard disk inside was not removed. It might be due to the suspect’s negligence.”
” Oh ? Your man… Why didn’t he tell you previously?” Captain Zhang was a bit baffled. If there were already this video, it would not have led to the misunderstanding yesterday.
“He told me at the time. I didn’t pay attention until you asked me yesterday. I went to see him and asked for this video after I went back.” Yang Ming explained with a bit of shame, “I was quite busy a while ago, dealing with other things. I did not pay too much attention to it.”
Qin An did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. He also had some men, collecting intelligence every day and then reporting it to him. Qin An could only pick some important ones to learn more about it. It was impossible to do everything personally. It would not be weird if he were exhausted.
“But your man actually went to Mount Jing… It was a bit strange.” Qin An did not blame Yang Ming for crossing the boundary, because he said this with a smile.
“Elder Brother Qin, don’t blame him. He came here purely to protect me and had no other intention.” Yang Ming quickly explained.
” Hehe , I didn’t blame you, but I’m a little curious.” Qin An smiled and waved his hand. “But, your man is faithful.”
Even though the Supernatural Investigation Bureau had a person in charge of each station, the person in charge could recruit some of his personal men to help. Moreover, the expenses could be claimed from Xia Bingbao’s fund. Qin An thought that it was also the case with Yang Ming. How could he know that Yang Ming was a lone commander without any supporters? His so-called man was just his girlfriend, Wang Xiaoyan’s… father’s man.
“Let’s watch the video?” Captain Zhang was a little impatient. After greeting Yang Ming and Qin An, he suggested.
“Alright. Elder Brother Qin, I just talked to Captain Zhang. We have a clear face on the suspect in this video. We can issue an arrest warrant based on this face,” said Yang Ming.
Zhang Mingyi asked the staff to prepare a conference room, setting up the big screen, and went with Yang Ming and Qin An to start playing the DVD that Yang Ming brought.
In terms of the camera shots on Yang Ming, Yang Ming didn’t edit it. No one would doubt him again, so if he edited it, it would make him seem narrow-minded.
……
After watching the video, Zhang Mingyi found someone to extract a photo of the suspect. The video was clear. After just a few edits, it was done. With that, a clear print of the arrest warrant appeared on the streets and alleys of Mount Jing. The arrest warrant on the Internet was also sent to the nearby city police stations to help them issue the arrest warrant.
Qin An and Zhang Mingyi were busy together. Yang Ming also made a temporary decision to come to Mount Jing. There was not much preparation, and he was going to rush back. So he agreed with Qin An that after this incident, Qin An would come to Song Jiang to find Yang Ming to meet up. Probably, it wouldn’t take long for Qin An to visit Song Jiang.
After Yang Ming bid farewell to Qin An and Zhang Mingyi, he was about to rush back to Song Jiang. He just took one class today. If he went back now, he could probably catch up with the last lecture.
After returning to Song Jiang, Yang Ming did not speed. He was not a speeding madman. Although the car’s pass was given in Donghai, and it was easy to use throughout the province, Yang Ming did not rely on this privilege.
The Mount Jing police station was still very efficient. Tens of thousands of arrest warrants were posted in various residential areas and streets. There was some clue with Sui Yuejin’s assassination case.
However, the most concerned was Old Li. He was looking forward to the bonus yesterday. He waited for the entire morning today and did not see anyone coming to deliver the bonus. He thought he was being fooled, so he called Zhang Mingyi. However, he was told that the case had another hidden truth, and Yang Ming was not a suspect.
Old Li was more convinced that he was fooled; he was annoyed. Police Officer Zhang took the videotape but didn’t reward him, so he was complaining at home. Old Wang took a copy of the arrest warrant and looked for Old Li.
“Old Li, don’t wait anymore. The bonus is definitely gone.” Old Wang sighed as he walked in the door.
” Oh ? What do you mean? Are they really going back on their bonus?” Old Li was a little angry. “They promised so in the beginning, and yet they didn’t pay it now. How could this be? I need to look for a newspaper exposé!”
“Don’t look for it.” Old Wang waved his hand and handed the piece of paper in his hand to Old Li. “Look yourself at what it is.”
“Arrest warrant?” Old Li took the piece of paper that Old Wang handed over and looked. He frowned instantly. “The person who killed Sui Yuejin isn’t the one in the video we watched?”
“Now, you know why they didn’t give you a bonus this time?” Old Wang said, “Stop complaining. What you provided is useless. The person in the video is not the murderer!”
This time, Old Li was completely silent. He also knew why he didn’t get the bonus. How could there be a free lunch?
……
Another person who brought back a piece of paper was Huang Youcai. He was flustered as he passed the item in his hand to the behind-the-scenes boss. “Boss, this is not good. Your arrest warrant actually came out!”
“What? My arrest warrant?” The behind-the-scenes boss was chatting with Dr. Benjamin on the Internet. When Huang Youcai walked in, he frowned. “Why are you so panicky?”
“Boss, you are wanted by the Mount Jing police!” Huang Youcai handed the things in his hands to the behind-the-scenes boss.
The behind-the-scenes boss minimized the chat window because he didn’t want Huang Youcai to know about his matters. He picked up the warrant from Huang Youcai and glanced at it. His expression became stern. “What the hell is going on? How could they know that I did it? Is there something wrong with that videotape?”
It was no wonder that the behind-the-scenes boss would have such a big reaction! He should manipulate the situation while being hidden behind the scenes. He should not be exposed in public or in front of people. When his appearance suddenly appeared in the arrest warrant, how could he not be scared?
“The videotape is definitely not a problem, but these photos seem to be taken in the Immortal Building of Sui’s Group?” Huang Youcai carefully observed the background of the photo and said.
