Movie Variety Show: Starting from a New World

"How can you be sure this person has already escaped from Beiping?" Wei Yu asked, somewhat surprised, finding his father's guess strange.

“Although this person is short-sighted, do you think anyone would dare to stay after firing a shot in Beiping? Such a person wouldn’t be capable of robbery!” Zhao Cheng said with a smile.

“Actually, I guess this guy is just a brute! We have CCTV in our store. Even though he disguised himself, the footage still shows him. It’s easy to analyze who he is!” Wei Yu said.

“I’ll call the Municipal Bureau tomorrow and have them distribute the people in the video. Although this person will definitely escape, since he’s come to Beiping, he must have left some traces!” Zhao Cheng said.

In fact, Zhao Cheng guessed that this person was probably still Bai Baoshan. Although Bai Baoshan's gun had been seized before, he had not been caught. Moreover, this time Bai Baoshan was using a submachine gun, which puzzled Zhao Cheng. Wasn't that guy the most fond of the August 1st rifle?

Meanwhile, at the Beiping Municipal Public Security Bureau, before Zhao Cheng could even make a call, the lights were already on as they worked overtime to investigate the case.

"Chief, this is the robber! There's a complete video recording in that clothing store, showing his entire crime!" Tian Feng handed several photos to Chief Luo and said with a smile.

"Why are you so happy? What? You think you can find the criminal based on this video?" Director Luo said irritably.

"Well, that's not so easy. After all, the criminal was disguised, wearing sunglasses and a mask. We can only be sure that the person is about 1.75 meters tall, and we can't see anything else!" Tian Feng said, scratching his head.

"Then what are you so happy about? What use is such a small clue?" Director Luo said helplessly.

"Sir, look at this photo. Should we send it to our comrades and ask them to look for it? At this point, we can only mobilize the masses! Although we don't know the person, surely the criminal's family and friends know him? This person's physique is quite distinctive!" Tian Feng said, looking at the photo.

"There's no other way now. Organize these photos and send them to the branch offices and police stations below! Have them go to the streets and neighborhood committees to conduct a thorough investigation! See if anyone recognizes this person!" Director Luo didn't have any better ideas at the moment, so he could only ask everyone to work hard and conduct door-to-door checks!

"I'll go right away. By the way, Director, should we mobilize the masses to investigate together? After all, we still have grid management team leaders and such in Beiping. If we send out more photos, more people will see them, right?" Tian Feng asked.

"Sure, talk to the technical department and try to make the photos as clear as possible. Make sure they reach every grid liaison officer!" Director Luo said.

"Understood, Director, I'll be right there!" Tian Feng said and left the director's office.

The next morning, all the branch bureaus and police stations in Beiping received photos of the criminals from the municipal bureau!

"This guy is really bold, daring to shoot and rob people in broad daylight?" A policeman from Xizhimen Police Station looked at the contents of the wanted poster with some surprise.

"He's not only daring, but he also knows how to pick his targets! He dares to rob a store like Mingliu Shijia?" another policeman said, looking at the wanted poster.

"A prominent family? That name sounds so familiar," a policeman said.

"It's a chain store founded by several wives of the Zhao family! They sell clothing!" said a policeman who knew the inside story.

They had all been notified beforehand that they must take good care of the safety of the prominent family, and that if any trouble was caused, they must deal with it immediately!

"The Zhao family? The family in Coal Mine Alley?" a policeman asked, somewhat surprised.

"That's right, it's at that person's house! This clothing store has been open for several years, and you're only finding out today?"

"How could that be? I just didn't realize it at first! But why would he rob a clothing store?"

"What else could it be? They're rich, of course! Everyone knows that a shop from a prominent family can sell tens of thousands of items a day."

"This counterfeiter really knows how to pick a good deal. I feel like the Fuchengmen Police Station is in complete chaos right now! After all, it happened in their jurisdiction!"

"It's hard to say. I heard that if that thief had left two more immigration cases later, he might have been caught in the store by the company's security personnel! You know, those security personnel are fully armed! Except for automatic weapons, they have all the necessary body armor and helmets! Two of them even have shotguns!"

"Alright, stop discussing. Now everyone take the photo and go down to the grassroots level, into the community, and make sure to investigate every individual, whether they are permanent residents or migrant workers! Because this photo is disguised, we can only find out who this guy is by having someone who knows him very well identify him!" The station chief walked into the meeting room, waved to stop the police officers' discussion, and said to the room full of police officers with a serious expression.

"No way, Chief? How many people are there in our entire police station? Our jurisdiction has at least 50,000 people, including the transient population! How are we supposed to investigate all of this?" A policeman couldn't help but groan upon hearing the chief's words!

"What are you shouting for? This is such a big case. If we don't find the murderer as soon as possible, do you expect us to let him continue committing crimes?" the police chief said with a serious face.

"Understood, Chief!" Seeing the chief's serious expression, all the police officers dared not make any more demands and had no choice but to take some photos and begin their investigations.

In no time, everyone in the capital knew that a ruthless man had emerged, robbing people in broad daylight with a submachine gun! And he even killed someone! The entire capital began to talk about it.

Three days later, Bai Baoshan's discarded clothes and guns, along with his tattered travel bag, were also found!

"Chief, this was found in an alley two kilometers away from the crime scene!" Tian Feng came to Director Luo's office with a submachine gun in an evidence bag.

"Are you sure?" Director Luo asked excitedly. There was no other way; three days had passed, and now they finally had a lead.

"It's confirmed, this is the gun! The evidence department has already examined it!" Tian Feng said with a smile.

"Great, we've finally got a lead. So that means the criminal threw away the gun after stealing the items? Now the focus is on the investigation! But send out another notice now and see if any taxis have picked up passengers there!" Director Luo said.

"Director, how did you know it was a taxi? Couldn't it have been his own car?" Tian Feng asked curiously.

"Do you think someone with a car would need to rob someone?" Director Luo said irritably.
