Chapter 75 Watching the Case Investigation
"Go, call him back."
Wang Yuemin instructed his secretary, but Secretary Qi suddenly shook his head and said, "Stationmaster Wang, he's busy with his work. Don't call him. We can just go over and take a look."
Chu Lingyun was handling a case, so naturally the case was the most important. He had plenty of ways to see Chu Lingyun. If he called Chu Lingyun back at this time, and if the case was delayed, he would be in big trouble if the director found out.
Their Virgo master is clear about rewards and punishments, and always puts work first.
"Secretary Qi, how about we go have dinner first? I'll have Ling Yun come see you as soon as he finishes the case."
Wang Yuemin took the opportunity to say that he actually didn't want to call Chu Lingyun back. The last person in the Dujuan team sent an emergency contact request, and emergency contacts are time-sensitive.
The reason I said this was purely for Secretary Qi to see.
Secretary Qi shook his head: "You can eat anytime. Let's go and see how Chu Lingyun investigates the case."
Secretary Qi at this moment was obviously very interested in Chu Lingyun.
Wang Yuemin took Secretary Qi to the post office. The post office was on the same road as them and was very close, so they arrived at the destination in a short while.
"Where are the people? Where is your Team Leader Chu?"
Inside the post office sorting room, there was only one member of the action team guarding there; everyone else was gone.
The team member hurriedly replied: "Stationmaster, our team leader has taken people to Chunjiang Road."
After Chu Lingyun arrived at the post office, he opened the letter sent to No. 77 Jiang'an Street. There was only a piece of white paper inside with nothing written on it.
Such a letter without any content can only be the emergency contact signal of the Cuckoo Group. Ordinary people would not send such a letter in the same city.
After confirming this, Chu Lingyun did not stop and went directly to the mailbox where he got the letter. Chu Lingyun had previously issued an order that all letters arriving at the post office during this period must be separated, and it is important to remember which mailbox the letter came from.
This letter was brought back from the mailbox on Chunjiang Road. At this time, Chu Lingyun was on his way to Chunjiang Road.
Chunjiang Road is located in the east of the city. This area is quite prosperous and many government employees live here.
Chu Lingyun quickly arrived at Chunjiang Road. The mailbox was located on one side of the intersection. There was a lot of traffic every day, and there were basically dozens of letters sent out in the mailbox every day.
When Chu Lingyun sent people to the sorting team at the post office, he had considered placing one person next to each mailbox, preferably with a camera, to take pictures of the people who sent letters every day.
But he could only think about it, there was no possibility at all.
There are hundreds of mailboxes in the entire city. Even if he had so many people, he would not have so many cameras for him to use. What's more, it was just a guess at the time, and no one could guarantee that the other party would definitely send the letter.
Under such circumstances, Wang Yuemin would not support him in doing so, and the station did not have the manpower and financial resources.
"Team Leader, I've asked around. There are so many people coming and going here every day, and no one knows who posted the letter."
Loach went to find out the information and came back to report to Chu Lingyun after a while. He didn't even know whether anyone had submitted the letter, let alone seen the person who submitted the letter.
"Go call all the police officers in this area over here. I'll think about it first."
Chu Lingyun instructed Niu Qiu that since no one saw it, then he should investigate according to the principle that no one saw it. The clues would not appear on their own, and he would need to unravel them bit by bit and make inferences based on all known conditions.
There are many city government employees living in this area, which is consistent with the information previously reported by the intelligence officer of the Dujuan team.
Based on this calculation, he most likely lives nearby.
If he lived here, it would greatly narrow the scope of the investigation.
Although Muto Xun didn't know the identities of the three agents, he did know when they joined the Cuckoo Group. Takano Hideki joined the latest, two years ago, while Abe Hanako joined six months earlier. The agent, who hadn't been found yet, joined the Cuckoo Group three years and one month ago.
He was the first member to join the group besides Kawasaki Takesuke and Muto Xun.
With this time point, the search scope can be reduced a lot.
He came to Wuhan three years and one month ago. He may work in the municipal government, or have acquaintances in the municipal government. He lives in this area and is most likely single.
After the scope is narrowed, there are not many people who meet the requirements.
Chu Lingyun understood that this kind of screening was not absolute. For example, although he came to Wuhan three years ago, who knew if he had moved in the meantime?
Or maybe he's not single, or he's not here at all.
These are all uncertain factors. In the absence of more clues, Chu Lingyun can only use the current clues to investigate. If he really can't find it, or goes in the wrong direction, he will be unlucky.
"Team leader, the station chief is here, and I heard there's a big shot from headquarters as well."
Shen Hanwen hurried over. Chu Lingyun was startled and looked back. Wang Yuemin was walking towards them with a young man.
After Wang Yuemin arrived, he waved to Chu Lingyun and said, "Lingyun, come here. Let me introduce you. This is Secretary Qi from the headquarters. Secretary Qi is the most important person around the director. He was very interested after hearing about your situation and came to see you specially."
Chu Lingyun was slightly startled. He already knew who the director's personal secretary was.
This is really a big shot. I didn’t expect him to come, and I didn’t expect him to come over to see me.
"Hello, Commander Qi. I'm Chu Lingyun, deputy leader of the Wuhan Station Operations Team, and I await your instructions."
Chu Lingyun saluted with a standard military posture. His military posture was very good, and Wang Yuemin liked this point about him very much at the beginning.
"I don't have any instructions. Just do what you need to do. I'll just take a look."
Secretary Qi smiled slightly, and Wang Yuemin hurriedly said, "Ling Yun, what's the situation now?"
Chu Lingyun told Wang Yuemin and Secretary Qi in detail about his previous arrangements and his discovery of the emergency contact letter sent by the remaining member of the Dujuan team. The two nodded as they listened.
Before he could finish, Loach came running back with a dozen policemen.
"You handle the case first, and we'll talk about the case later."
Secretary Qi immediately said that handling the case was the most important thing. He now had a general understanding of the case. This kind of case was actually very difficult to investigate. Knowing only a letter but not knowing who sent it, trying to find the sender was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"yes."
Chu Lingyun responded and immediately ordered the police brought by Niu Qiu, "Find all the single people who moved here about three years ago. Those who work at the municipal government should mark them as important. I want to see the list in an hour."
Time is running out. After the emergency contact information is sent out, they will meet the next day, which means he has to find the person tonight.
If the intelligence officer does not see Kawasaki Takesuke at the meeting time tomorrow, he will definitely understand that something has happened to the other party and will definitely escape or hide, and it will be almost impossible to catch him.
A new week has come again. Xiaoyu wishes all friends a happy new week. There will be an extra update today.
