Police officer Chen Shu

Chapter 309 Good News

"Tuk-tuk."

Sitting in his chair, Chen Chuan tapped the floor a few times with his cane, suppressing the undercurrents surging in the room.

The temporary addition of a local driver was indeed unexpected for Chen Shu. However, as the other party said, in this unfamiliar, lawless place where kidnapping was as common as eating and drinking, finding a kidnapped person was as difficult as climbing to heaven.

Xiao Zhao, who had been wronged by the locals, naturally had many concerns about A Cai, who was also a local. After Chen Shu and the others arrived, he thought he had a backer and revealed his anger on the surface.

Although Chen Chuan, who has an unconventional and whimsical style, doesn't seem very reliable from his appearance, he managed to lead a group across the border illegally in just a few hours tonight, reaching their destination as quickly as possible.

Chen Shu was ashamed of his own abilities in this regard.

Chen Shu looked at Xiao Zhao and said in a deep voice, "Xiao Zhao, unless you know, or have a way to find out where Zhang Yang is now,..."

After speaking, he calmly looked at Xiao Zhao.

Xiao Zhao's face turned bright red. He gestured wildly, trying to explain, but no words came out. After more than ten seconds, under Chen Shu's gaze, he lowered his head and said:

"Brother Shu, I'll follow your arrangements."

Chen Shu nodded, called over A-Chai, and the two added each other on WeChat. He then sent Zhang Yang's photo to him, asking him to go out and find people while the town's casino was busiest.

Ah Chai examined the photo for a few moments, frowned, and sighed, "The girl is too beautiful, this is going to be difficult."

Then he looked at Chen Chuan.

Chen Chuan said, "Brother Shu's meaning is my meaning. From now on, you don't need to come and ask me for any of Brother Shu's orders."

After A-Chai left, Chen Shu handed the room key to Chen Chuan, telling everyone who had been busy all night to go back to their rooms and rest.

Once only the two of them were left in the room, Chen Shu began to ask Xiao Zhao in detail about the situation at the time and to think about the next course of action.

It's late at night, but no one is asleep.

On the third day, at five o'clock in the morning, on the first floor of the hotel.

Chen Shu, who had been waiting all night, sat by the door, drinking some unknown coffee to keep himself awake, while looking at the two dark-screened phones placed on the small round table next to him.

They're all after money. If they really kidnap Zhang Yang, they'll likely contact his relatives and friends to demand a ransom after a few days. Zhang Yang's family isn't poor; the kidnappers will call sooner or later.

Xiao Zhao has already contacted the TV station's leadership and Zhang Yang's parents. If the kidnappers contact them, they will notify Xiao Zhao and the others in X North immediately.

If it could be solved with money, that would be great.

"Crunch, crunch, crunch."

The wooden stairs creaked underfoot, and soon Chen Chuan, who also had dark circles under his eyes, came downstairs carrying an unassuming black tin box.

With a loud bang, Chen Chuan threw the metal box on the ground and shoved it under the chair. He plopped down next to Chen Shu, grabbed a bottle of coffee from the small round table, unscrewed it, and chugged it down.

Chen Shu glanced down, his eyes widening in disbelief, and exclaimed, "It's not a cell phone tracker, is it? How could you bring that out!"

The principle behind mobile phone locators is very simple: they spoof a mobile base station to bypass the operator's official base station and directly locate specific mobile phone numbers within the coverage area of ​​that base station.

Of course, this is on the premise that the phone is turned on and within the range of the mobile base station.

Chen Shu was surprised because this technology for directly locating mobile phones falls under the category of technical investigation in the public security system. The case must meet the criteria for a criminal case and require approval from the city bureau leadership before it can be used.

They came here privately without their unit's knowledge, and never intended to search for anyone here as H country police officers, so the presence of this tracking device is definitely illegal. As a police officer in the city's technical investigation branch, Chen Chuan did indeed have this advantage.

Chen Chuan glanced at Chen Shu sideways, raised his eyebrows, and scolded, "Human life is at stake, and you're still concerned about this? If you think it's inappropriate, I'll pick it up and leave right now! I've carried this heavy thing all the way here, and I haven't complained once. But you're sitting here and acting all pedantic with me? Do you think I don't know these rules and regulations?"

Chen Chuan bears more responsibility in this matter than he does. When he gets back, he'll face the least punishment; he might even have to take his clothes off!
But the current situation is that we don't even know if Zhang Yang is dead or alive.

Chen Shu closed his eyes and said with shame, "Brother, I owe you."

"That's pretty much it."

Chen Chuan took out a pack of white cigarettes from his pocket, handed one to Chen Shu, and said in a casual tone, "You don't need to be so stressed. This locator has been used for more than ten years and is now lying in a corner of the warehouse covered in dust. Not many people in the team care about it. It's about time to be scrapped. Saving people is the priority now."

Knowing Chen Chuan was trying to comfort her, she realized that police officers were human too, with their own selfish motives. Zhang Yang was currently trapped in Xibei, with no news of him since. Having this locator would make the search and rescue easier.

"Yes, saving lives is the priority."

Chen Shu punched Chen Chuan on the shoulder.

"Boss, I'm back! Good news!"

Ah Chai lifted the curtain, chewed on a betel nut, and walked in from outside the street.

A leaf falling on a lake creates ripples, while a boulder falling into the sea goes unnoticed.

The Silver Triangle is a sea of ​​evil. The more evil people witness here, the less room they have for law and morality, until it becomes completely empty.

The situation is even worse in North X below.

In the morning, a six-story office building in the northwest corner of the North Canada Industrial Park.

Besides the lobby on the first floor, the upper floors, through the transparent windows, can be seen filled with men and women, each sitting neatly at their own workstations.

Wearing headsets and constantly typing on keyboards, they could easily be mistaken for a typical, legitimate internet service company if you didn't listen carefully to what they were saying. And, of course, here they are indeed legitimate, licensed online gambling companies.

"Hello, this is the X City Public Security Bureau. You are suspected of money laundering. Please provide your email address so I can send you the arrest warrant."

"Me? I'm a senior executive at a Fortune 500 company. Can you guess which one? Here's a hint: you can check my WeChat Moments."

"799 order successful! We will transfer a total of 958 yuan to you within three business days. Yes, if you are ready to participate in the 1199 order, please subscribe."

Sitting by the window, Zhang Yang was bathed in the warm winter sun, but her heart was ice-cold. Looking at her colleagues diligently "working" around her, she expressionlessly took off the telephone she was wearing and tossed it onto her desk.

"you!"

Standing in front of the building, a young man in charge of office order saw this, pointed at Zhang Yang from afar, and was about to come over and teach this new woman a lesson.

At this moment, another middle-aged man standing next to him, holding a rubber roller, pulled him aside and whispered, "Forget it, don't worry about her. The boss personally selected this woman."

"Pah! They'll fall into our hands sooner or later."

The two male counselors exchanged a glance and laughed, their voices lewd and their expressions conveying a knowing look.

The employees below continued working, clearly having gotten used to it.
