Detective: From the Police Academy

Chapter 172 Rescued (Updated)
It is now four o'clock in the morning, and everything is quiet.

"Drive slowly!" Luo Rui instructed Su Mingyuan and rolled down all the car windows. The night wind blew into the car, and the three of them shivered.

Su Mingyuan nodded and slowed down the car again, driving at a snail's pace.

Luo Rui stuck his head out and looked forward and backward, but it was dark at night and he could not see anything.

Chu Yang quickly operated the computer on his knees, pulled out the map of this place, and then zoomed in, and zoomed in again!
"Team leader, this road is called Jiangjun Road. There is a T-shaped intersection behind our car. There are no lanes on either side, so the car cannot pass. There is a staircase in front, and below is a residential building that is to be demolished.

There is an intersection about 300 meters in front of our car, but the intersection is equipped with surveillance cameras. If the Jetta goes there, it will definitely be captured by the surveillance camera. "

Luo Rui frowned: "In other words, the Jetta's destination is on this street?"

"should be!"

"get off!"

Su Mingyuan quickly stopped the car, and the three of them immediately opened the car doors and stood on the silent street.

Chu Yang still held the laptop in his hand.

"Team leader, there are restaurants, clothing stores, convenience stores, schools, and an amusement park on this street, but they have all been abandoned for a long time."

Su Mingyuan said: "There is no blood in the Red Shoes Cafe, and the surveillance camera at the intersection of the cafe only captured Captain Cai entering, but did not see her coming out. She must have been taken away by this Jetta!"

Seeing that Luo Rui and the others didn't say anything, he continued to analyze: "Why didn't they kill Captain Cai at that time, but brought her to this place? What was Fang Yu thinking? Did he want to kill Captain Cai here and bury the body?"

At this time, Chu Yang glared at him: "What nonsense are you talking about! Captain Cai will be fine!"

This street is about a thousand meters long and has shops on both sides.

Where will Cai Xiaojing be?
Luo Rui kept patrolling the street. He was really unsure. Just when he was about to say something, he noticed car lights appearing in the place he had just come from.

Several police cars rushed over and stopped on the road.

A dozen uniformed police officers got out of the car.

Several of them were holding well-trained police dogs.

The leading police officer came running over and said, "Captain Luo, we are here under orders to assist you in finding Captain Cai's whereabouts! Please give us your instructions!"

Luo Rui let out a breath, releasing his pent-up emotions.

"Thank you! Captain Cai is on this street, we must find her!"

"Okay, I understand!"

The police officers took out Cai Xiaojing's personal belongings, which was a tube of hand cream that the police officers found on her desk.

He let a few police dogs sniff the temperature of the hand cream, then let out the leashes and let the dogs run.

However, what was unexpected was that all four police dogs ran in the same direction.

Luo Rui had a bad feeling.

Dogs have sensitive noses, but they can immediately identify the direction, which only means that there is a strong smell that attracts them.

There are no drugs here, only the smell of blood, or the smell of corpses!

Luo Rui's heart was in his throat. If something really happened to Cai Xiaojing, he would never be able to forgive himself!
A group of people followed the police dog and soon they arrived at the entrance of the amusement park.

In front of me were two rusty iron doors, wide open.

It was pitch black inside, and looked eerie.

More than a dozen flashlights were shone inside, and after a round of inspection, four police dogs kept barking inside.

The police officers quickly loosened the ropes and ran in the direction of the police dog.

"boom!"

Suddenly, they heard a loud noise, which stunned everyone present.

Luo Rui was the first to react. He snatched the flashlight from a police officer and ran to the activity room on the left.

Others soon followed.

Luo Rui ran to the door, pushed it open, and shone the flashlight inside.

There was a wooden box on the floor and Cai Xiaojing was trapped inside.

The wooden box was too strong and did not break.

If Luo Rui and the others had not arrived in time, she might still be trapped inside.

She faced the halo of light and saw clearly who was coming.

Her mouth was sealed with tape so she couldn't make any sound, but her eyes were wet with tears.

In the wooden box, there were more than a dozen dead rats, covered in blood.

"Captain Cai!"

"Captain Cai!"

The police officers immediately ran forward and pried the wooden box open.

The policewoman carefully helped Cai Xiaojing out, gently tore off the tape on her mouth, and then untied the ropes tied around her wrists and ankles.

Luo Rui was still standing there in a daze, not daring to go over.

Seeing that she was still alive, he did not relax. He did not dare to move forward or face Cai Xiaojing.

If it weren't for me, she wouldn't have almost died.

I caused all this myself!
Unexpectedly, as soon as the ropes on Cai Xiaojing were untied, she moved her ankles, then walked up to Luo Rui and hugged him.

She gritted her teeth and put her face on his shoulder.

Tears flowed silently, wetting Luo Rui's shoulders.

Luo Rui pursed his lips tightly, his heart beating wildly.

He wanted to pat her, but his body remained stiff.

The police officer beside him turned his head wisely. Chu Yang and Su Mingyuan also turned their backs and took out their cell phones to call an ambulance.

After a long time, Cai Xiaojing let go of Luo Rui and smiled.

"What a joke!"

Luo Rui shook his head: "I'm sorry, if it wasn't for me..."

"Don't apologize. If it weren't for you, we might not know who X is."

"Actually, this is all thanks to you."

Cai Xiaojing wiped her face with her sleeves because her hands were covered with the blood of the rat.

She relaxed and regained her composure.

"Has Tao Yanhong been caught?"

"Not yet, but Fang Yu is dead."

"Fang Yu?"

Luo Rui quickly told her what happened. The more Cai Xiaojing listened, the more she felt that Tao Yanhong was really a hidden person. She would meet such a woman every day when she came home from work. She never expected that she would be the mastermind behind such a shocking crime, and she never expected that she would cruelly poison the owner of the cafe.

When Cai Xiaojing heard about Fang Yu and Tao Yanhong's relationship, she was not surprised. She had long discovered that Tao Yanhong and Qu Bo had a bad relationship and often scolded her husband for being a coward. She could feel what kind of character a woman had when she had an affair.

After the ambulance arrived, Cai Xiaojing got in. Although she didn't have any serious injuries, she had been bitten by a rat and needed to go to the hospital for a physical examination. In addition, she had been imprisoned for several hours and needed to relax mentally.

She smiled at Luo Rui and said, "We are in the same boat. I have to go to the hospital too."

Luo Rui blinked, but the guilt in his heart still did not dissipate.

"Why, you're not going back to the hospital?"

Luo Rui shook his head: "I said, we must catch X."

Cai Xiaojing wanted to get off the car, but Luo Rui stopped her: "Go to the hospital and rest first. We'll talk after you've rested."

"All right!"

After the ambulance left, Luo Rui followed Su Yang and Chu Ming into the police car.

……

Chen Hao and Zhu Yong did not go to the Municipal Bureau, but drove to the Haijiang Branch.

At this time, the sky was turning pale, and a night had passed.

Without taking a rest, the group found Wei Qunshan in the conference room.

After the two sides met, there was no greeting, but they went straight to the point.

After sitting down, Zhu Yong looked at Luo Rui who was sitting below him and immediately gave him a thumbs up, the meaning of which was self-evident. Chen Hao walked over and patted him on the shoulder.

"I heard that Captain Cai was rescued, well done!"

Luo Rui nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

"What? You don't want to go back to the hospital to recuperate, but want to join us in arresting Tao Yanhong?"

Luo Rui raised his eyebrows: "Why? Are you afraid that I will steal your credit?"

Chen Hao took out a cigarette, but did not light it. "This is all your credit!"

He didn't expect Luo Rui to reply: "No, this is all thanks to Director Hu!"

The two looked at each other in silence. There were some things they couldn't say.

Luo Rui looked towards the head of the conference table. Zhu Yong and Wei Qunshan were talking with their heads down. Their voices were very low, as if they didn't want others to hear them.

Time passed slowly until they had discussed and seemed to have reached some kind of agreement. Zhu Yong said to the police officers present: “I believe everyone knows that this case is of great importance. We have already found out the true identity of this X.

Then, our arrest operation will be led by our comrades from the Linjiang City Police Department, led by Chen Hao!"

After this was said, the Haijiang Branch did not care, as this was originally a case of the Linjiang Police Station. However, some criminal police who came from the Guangxing City Police Station were not happy about it and started whispering to each other.

Wu Dahao opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but finally chose to close it.

In terms of ability, even if I split myself in half, I still can't catch up with Chen Hao.

But he had been coveting this tremendous achievement for a long time.

After Zhu Yong assigned the personnel, Wei Qunshan stood in front of the big screen.

"The Information Department retrieved the road surveillance footage of Haijie in recent days. They found that Tao Yanhong often appeared on Haijie. Moreover, every time she went to the Red Shoes Café, her car appeared in these blocks..."

The traffic route map of Haijiang District immediately appeared on the big screen.

Wei Qunshan used a laser pen to shoot at the big screen.

"The information we have is that Tao Yanhong has moved out of her original residence. She should be living in Haijie, which has a total of 20 streets! We have already sent people to set up checkpoints at every intersection and street in this area. She can't escape! Chen Hao, you lead the team, set off immediately, and make sure to catch her!"

Chen Hao immediately stood up, and the criminal police from Linjiang City and Haijiang Branch followed him and strode out.

The people from Guangxing Municipal Bureau haven't moved yet.

Zhu Yong looked at Wu Dahao and said, "Captain Wu, you stay outside and don't let Tao Yanhong get away!"

Wu Dahao accepted the order very reluctantly and left in embarrassment.

At this time, the sky outside was already bright. The crowd who got up early to go to work immediately noticed that the streets were full of police officers and special police, and they all speculated what had happened.

People who woke up early to work and could not get to the company on time cursed at the police, but they were all handcuffed.

Zhang Hui's company is a four-star hotel next to the Guangmao Building. She is the floor manager of the hotel. She has been working there for many years, but has never seen such a big scene.

Fortunately, she rode a bicycle to work and didn't get stuck in traffic. Those who drove to work were in a terrible situation. They either had to take a detour or return the same way they came.

If I keep waiting for the police to check me, I will probably arrive at the company at noon.

When she entered the intersection, the police stopped her and said, "Hello, please show me your ID card!"

Zhang Hui always carried her ID card with her for work reasons, so she took it out of her bag and handed it to the police officer.

The police officer held the ID, looked at it, and then returned it to her.

"Thank you!"

After Zhang Hui took it, she continued to pedal the bicycle forward.

The further you go in, the more police officers there are on the street. There are also special police standing on the roadside with guns, and muzzled police dogs squatting at their feet.

Zhang Hui felt vaguely uneasy, but fortunately, they were about to arrive at the hotel.

She locked her bicycle on the side of the road, then picked up her bag and walked towards the hotel entrance.

After changing into her uniform in the locker room, she came to the hotel lobby.

Because it was still early, not many guests had checked in yet.

The girl behind the counter saw her and came up to her immediately: "Sister Zhang, you're here. Did you see everything outside? There are so many policemen. I was scared to death!"

Zhang Hui was still a little scared: "Don't be afraid, as long as we don't go out and wander around, there shouldn't be any danger."

"Sister Zhang, you can't say that! I have a relative who lives in Linjiang City. A few days ago, a transport vehicle was robbed and a jewelry store exploded. All the police were chasing the criminals. And the news said that the mastermind behind the scenes has not been caught. Could this criminal have fled to our Guangxing City?"

Zhang Hui sighed and said with a smile: "Young girl, why do you think so much? We are not that unlucky."

"Sister Zhang, you'd better be careful."

Zhang Hui wanted to say something, but she heard the phone at the front desk ringing.

The receptionist had no choice but to shut up, walk over and answer the phone.

"Hey!"

A minute later, she put down the phone and looked at Zhang Hui: "Sister Zhang, there is a customer complaint in room 2205. There was a dog barking in the VIP room 2206, which made them unable to sleep well all night."

This floor happened to be the one Zhang Hui was in charge of. Room 2205 was a double suite, where a rather improper couple lived.

If they are a couple traveling together, they can just have one bed, why do they need two beds?
Moreover, the man and woman were wearing professional attire, and it was obvious that the boss and the female subordinate were having an affair.

As for Room 2206, Zhang Hui remembered it more clearly. A few days ago, a mother and daughter moved in and brought several suitcases with them.

Zhang Hui thought they were here for tourism, but her accent didn't seem like it.

As for the dog barking, Zhang Hui remembered that they didn't have the dog on a leash when they registered.

But no matter what, if a customer complains, it must be dealt with.

She walked to the elevator and pressed the up button.

While waiting, Zhang Hui looked at the time. It was already 6:30 in the morning.

Customers are dining on the third floor, but it’s still early.

The elevator came down and the car door opened.

A little girl about ten years old walked out of the elevator, carrying a backpack, pushing a small suitcase with one hand and holding a large golden retriever with the other hand.

The little girl's eyes were red, as if she had just cried.

Zhang Hui was stunned. Isn’t this the little girl in Room 2206?
They actually brought the dog into the hotel, which is absolutely not allowed according to the regulations.

Zhang Hui felt very uncomfortable, seeing the pitiful look of the little girl, but out of politeness, she asked, "Little sister, what's wrong?"

The little girl looked at her and whispered, "Mom, let me go!"

Zhang Hui frowned: "Tell you to leave?"

"She told me to go find my dad."

"Where is your father?"

The little girl didn't answer, but pushed the suitcase and walked forward.

Maybe the suitcase was too heavy and she had to push it hard.

Zhang Hui hesitated. The little girl must have had a fight with her mother and might have run away without telling the adults.

As a floor manager, out of moral standards, she should have stopped the little girl immediately and brought her back to the adults to prevent her from getting lost.

But when she thought of the trouble the mother and daughter had caused her, her heart hardened.

If the lobby manager knew that he had been complained about and still allowed large dogs into the hotel, his salary would definitely be deducted this month.

Thinking of this, Zhang Hui walked into the elevator and pressed the up button as she watched the little girl disappear at the hotel entrance.

The elevator continued to move upward, and Zhang Hui's heart wavered.

What if that little girl got lost?
There are rampant human traffickers out there now, and without an adult around, anything can happen.

Zhang Hui gritted her teeth and pressed the first floor button, but the elevator had to reach the designated floor before it could go down.

She paced back and forth in the elevator, and when the door opened, she pressed the first floor button again.

But at this moment, a woman appeared in front of her.

Zhang Hui knew this woman. She was about to tell her that her daughter had left the hotel.

But she never expected that the other party suddenly reached out, grabbed her hair, and dragged her out!
