Chapter 221 Mermaid in the Glass Tank
Once you have the license plate number, it doesn't take much time to find a vehicle, especially one that belongs entirely to a transportation company.
Cen Lian and Wu Qiushan went to see the car together.
"It has indeed been tampered with," Wu Qiushan put on his gloves and checked carefully. "The person who did this is at least a habitual thief and very covert."
"Comrade police, our truck usually does some transportation work. We really haven't done anything illegal or disciplinary." The owner of the transportation company felt half-hearted when he saw the policeman he didn't know coming over. "And This car has been booked until this weekend, and now you are taking it away and delaying our business later. "
Seeing that Cen Lian and Wu Qiushan were young, he thought it was some case at the police station that involved the car, trying to play the emotional card.
Cen Lian took out his ID and handed it to him.
"I am Cen Lian, deputy captain of the Criminal Technical Support Brigade of Kang'an City Public Security Bureau. This car is related to a major poisoning case. We will take it back for inspection according to law." Cen Lian's tone was very businesslike.
When the boss of the transportation company heard that it was the city bureau, he already felt that something was wrong. Now that he heard that it was related to a major poisoning case, he no longer wanted to argue. He waved his hands and said: "It turns out that it is such a big case. You guys should take the car away quickly." Well, I have the information about the driver at that time and this period, and I can send it to you at any time."
Just kidding, how can a case that can be directly handled by the Municipal Public Security Bureau be a trivial matter? Moreover, the young policeman in front of him is already the deputy captain at the age of 28. With his many years of experience, he either has a background or is He is extremely capable and cannot be offended by a small transportation company with more than a dozen vehicles.
Cen Lian had nothing to say about his boss's performance. He had seen the boss's head and there was no criminal record worthy of a criminal case.
"You just said that this car is scheduled to go out in the next few days?" Wu Qiushan came over and asked after checking the lock cylinder.
"Yes, the order is over here." The boss very obediently informed them of all the subsequent employers of this car.
Cen Lian had doubts about the unlocking of the car before, because the person who broke the lock was obviously not there for the medicinal materials, otherwise Zhou Yushan would definitely encounter him, and he would have to deal with several employers who had already been booked. related.
Wu Qiushan and Cen Lian looked at the signed transportation agreement and found that until this Sunday, there were still three orders for this car that had not been completed.
Among them, the day after tomorrow and the day after tomorrow are both businesses in the previous medicinal wholesale city, only tomorrow's employer is a large entertainment company.
"Our company is near the medicinal wholesale market. Most of the time, the boss here uses the car. Sometimes, some companies from outside ask us to use the car temporarily." The boss explained.
"This entertainment company came to you temporarily?" Cen Lian asked.
"That's right, someone introduced us to them. The car they used to pull the props for the show had a flat tire. After taking it to the repair shop, they found that there was something wrong with the engine, so they will temporarily use our car tomorrow." The boss knew everything he said. Whatever comes to mind, tell them.
A car that suddenly had a flat tire, a professional matchmaker, and a lock that had been picked, everyone could tell there was something wrong.
"Do you have their boss's phone number?" Cen Lian asked him directly for his phone number.
The boss of this transportation company may not know anything. If this is a case that has been planned for a long time, then he is probably just a part of it.
The purpose of the person who designed this was to smoothly sneak into the car where the entertainment company was pulling props.
As for what he wants to do, it's hard for Cen Lian to think brightly.
After the owner of the transportation company provided the phone number, Wu Qiushan told him not to get close to the car, but he did not pull the car away immediately.
He had some idea of what Cen Lian was thinking.
"Isn't it a coincidence that this time tomorrow is too much?" Wu Qiushan watched Cen Lian walk to the car. "And this is a premeditated event. I looked at the time on the transportation contract. This incident happened five days ago. It’s been finalized.”
"Yes, and it's an entertainment company." Cen Lian stood by the door of the carriage and looked at the lock that had been tampered with. "The date of the live broadcast of the murder happens to be tomorrow, but I'm not sure if this is just a coincidence."
Wu Qiushan chuckled.
"Is it a coincidence? You only have clues about this case. The investigation has reached this point. How can you ignore this case?"
Cen Lian was speechless, "Actually, you don't need to expose me so quickly."
As criminal police officers, no matter whether this case is the one they are most concerned about now, when there is a possibility of a criminal case, they cannot leave it alone.
Since someone had done something here in advance, what they wanted to do was definitely not something as simple as sneaking into the car and stealing things.
…
After returning to the office, Yuan Chenxi contacted the performing arts company and learned that they were performing in a very popular scenic spot.
"It's the peak tourist season at this time, and the pedestrian street has a very large flow of people," Yuan Chenxi said with some worry after agreeing on a time to meet with the company boss, "It's very difficult for us to conduct on-site control, and it's easy to be crowded out by the crowd. ”
Cen Lian was also a little worried. He could directly see who the criminals were in the crowd, but with the amount of people at the beginning of the performance, he estimated that he might not be able to squeeze through and chase them with his own physical strength.
What's more, if it really causes a fright at the scene, a very serious stampede may occur.
That would be very scary.
"Try to find this person before the performance begins." Cen Lian said this firmly. "If a criminal case occurs in a place with such dense traffic, the crushing and trampling caused by the panic will be more terrifying than the case itself."
Qu Zihan quickly found out which programs this performing arts company contracted.
"I sent the performance programs they contracted on the pedestrian street to the group," she shook her head and moved her cervical spine. "In my personal prediction, the most likely one is the mermaid program in the air."
Cen Lian clicked on the video and found that the program Qu Zihan was talking about was an underwater program. A round, transparent glass tube that looked like an underwater passage spanned two antique buildings and was suspended in the air at a height of seven or eight meters. The tube was filled with water for a long time to raise fish. Every night when the performance was on, there would be young and beautiful girls dressed as mermaids to perform dances in it.
And there were too many places where this performance could be handled. Whether it was the decorative lights in the water, the height of the water surface, or even the clothes on the mermaid actors, they could all become a part of the murder.
"I have to say, live broadcasting a murder on this show really fits my imagination of that madman." Qu Zihan made his comment after confirming that they had watched it, "Especially after he found out that we would not leave the city bureau building except for police dispatches recently, and he had no chance to find us at all."
