Getting the best from Tarkov

Chapter 51: Committing a crime against the odds

"Yes, Director Yang. However, according to the medical examiner's on-site diagnosis, the deceased died of a heart attack. The medical examiner suspects that he was frightened to death when the explosion occurred in Room 503 across the street."

"wrong!"

"What's wrong? What's wrong, Director Yang? Is there something wrong?"

"That's not right! This man definitely wasn't scared to death! What a coincidence! Just across the street from the fire, on the same day, an old man was frightened to death. What a coincidence.

First there was a fire, then a heart attack. It all seemed like coincidence and very reasonable, but it was just too reasonable!

This isn't right. Go back and check carefully to see if there are any clues that have been missed. I'm going back to the bureau first. I think this matter needs to be reported to my superiors."

After saying that, Yang Jianguo ignored the stunned expressions of the others, turned around and got into the car, and asked the driver to go back to the bureau by himself.

......

I have to say, the old detective’s sharpness is no joke.

Liao Fan had worried about this before he silenced the old lady. Two cases occurred in the same place on the same day. One was an accidental fire, and the other was a woman who died of acute myocardial infarction due to fright caused by the fire.

It sounds reasonable, but it's too coincidental.

It was also because Liao Fan guessed that if a criminal investigation expert noticed this matter, he would definitely be suspicious, so he repeatedly cleaned up the traces he left behind before leaving.

For this reason, he deliberately left behind the 40 yuan, hoping to mislead the investigators' investigative thinking.

After all, no matter from which perspective, there is no possibility of any contact between Liao Fan and Xu Qi.

One is a shopping guide in an antique shop, and the other is a junior assistant in a fund company. The two of them would never have any intersection at all.

This is also the reason why Liao Fan dared to destroy the body so unscrupulously, because theoretically, he had no motive to commit the crime.

At this time, no matter how busy the police were, Liao Fan did not stop, because he learned from Xu Qi that the group of people who kidnapped Feng Caier were hired by Boguzhai.

If he doesn't resolve this issue, he will feel that his thoughts are not clear.

Perhaps, before Feng Caier disappeared, he would not be so sensitive about that matter, but once a person loses something, he will feel particularly regretful.

Liao Fan now feels a little guilty. Why didn't he spend more time with Feng Caier recently? Instead, he followed the chairman to Japan to have fun.

However, because a natural gas leak had just occurred in the old city, although it has been temporarily classified as an accident, police throughout the city will certainly be extra alert at this time.

At this critical juncture, any disturbance may touch their tense nerves.

After thinking this through, Liao Fan did not go directly to Boguzhai, but drove back home first and then ordered a set of mini sports cameras online.

Before the arrival of the goods, Liao Fan devoted all his energy to playing with Hongzui.

Time flies. On the third day after Liao Fan placed the order, the camera was successfully delivered to Liao Fan.

Looking at the mini camera that was not even as long as an adult's little finger, Liao Fan immediately called Hongzui and put it on his head.

After letting it fly a few times and making sure there was no problem, he stood up, picked up a backpack, and went out with Redbeak.

Before releasing the red-billed fish, Liao Fan once again emphasized what he was going to do next, and then drove to the vicinity of the Antique Street.

Lying in the car, I was browsing my phone and looking at the laptop next to me. The computer was playing the images transmitted back by the camera in real time.

I have to say that the 2 yuan is well spent. There is nothing to complain about in terms of clarity or transmission speed.

The only tremor was almost negligible because it was fixed on the bird's head.

He stayed in the car until the evening. After making sure that Hongzui had made all preparations accurately according to his instructions, Liao Fan got out of the car and walked towards the Antique Street.

Although it was already evening, there were still many customers on the antique street.

Before this, Liao Fan had already used a telescope to remotely determine the situation inside Boguzhai.

Under normal circumstances, Huang Zhiwen should be the only one in Boguzhai at this time.

The two shopping guides, the male one was Huang Zhiwen's apprentice, had already gone home from get off work before this, and this was an unchangeable rule.

Although the female shopping guide was an ordinary employee on the surface, she was secretly in love with the male shopping guide. However, the man was more ambitious than that and had an affair with Huang Zhiwen behind her secret boyfriend's back.

However, Liao Fan had just confirmed through the influence transmitted by Hongzui that this uncertain factor was not in the store.

From the images transmitted from Hongzui, we can see that the man and the woman walked out one after the other. Judging from their direction, they should be going on a date.

That’s right, they were both on duty in the store during the New Year. If it wasn’t for each other, Liao Fan couldn’t figure out what they were trying to do.

After making sure that there was no one in the store, Liao Fan first walked along the antique street into the store, then hid in the crowd and followed the flow of people out.

When he passed by Boguzhai, he quietly pushed the door open and walked in.

Seeing someone enter the store, Huang Zhiwen, who was originally tidying up the items on the counter, subconsciously said: "I'm sorry, customer, the store is closed. If you have anything you want to buy, you can come back tomorrow."

However, after he finished speaking, he didn't get a reply from the other party for a long time.

I was wondering and just as I was about to look up to see who was coming, I suddenly felt someone pressing against my waist with something from behind.

"Boss Huang, how are you? Don't say anything. Pick up the remote control on your left and lower the rolling door."

Hearing what the person behind him said, Huang Zhiwen didn't dare to do anything more.

People in their line of work, especially those like him who move back and forth between the black and white worlds, have more or less encountered similar things.

However, Huang Zhiwen did not expect that this gentleman would be so arrogant today and dare to pull out a gun in Shanghai.

Seeing that the roller shutter at the gate had been lowered, Liao Fanyou asked Huang Zhiwen to go to the gate and close it. With the roller shutter blocking the way, he was not afraid that the other party would run away directly.

And unless you are a fool, you won't scream and shout before something goes wrong.

After seeing that all the doors and windows were closed, Liao Fan pulled out a pair of handcuffs from his pocket and threw them to Huang Zhiwen, signaling him to hold himself in place. Then, Liao Fan began to walk around the store as if nothing had happened, like a tourist selecting a product.

Although Huang Zhiwen appeared to be calm on the surface, he was a little panicked inside.

Because he had already seen Liao Fan's outfit.

Black windbreaker, khaki overalls, khaki boots, a skull mask on his face, and a baseball bat on his head.

When Huang Zhiwen saw Liao Fan’s outfit, he immediately thought of a “scavenger” he met in Guangzhou a few years ago.

The other person was also dressed like this, so that no one could see his face, and he could immediately blend into the crowd after taking off the mask.

With the windbreaker and boots, even the height and figure are hard to determine.

On the other hand, Liao Fan had no intention of breaking into a house and kidnapping someone, and was still wandering around the house aimlessly.

However, he was like this on the surface, but secretly he was observing the environment at the door through the red-mouthed observer standing on the successor street lamp.

After making sure there was no problem, Liao Fan stood up and walked behind the counter, found the store's surveillance, and then quickly dismantled the disk. He also picked up a tea knife on the table and destroyed the disk.

After returning the disk, Liao Fan checked the surveillance computer again.

After making sure there were no other emergency disks or backups, he moved a chair and sat in front of Huang Zhiwen.

"Boss Huang, next, I'm going to ask you a question. If you answer correctly, I'll leave. If you answer incorrectly, you leave. Do you understand?"
