Chapter 199 The Disappearing Dwarf
Chen Yan also let out a heavy breath.
The suspect finally had a target.
But how did this dwarf appear in Unit Three?
An ambush in advance is impossible.
The security patrol goes down one floor at a time.
It was impossible to miss such a child.
Of course, the other party is very cunning and pretends to be a school student, but the security guard will not take it seriously.
The key is, there is a video in the corridor.
There is a camera at the turnaround position of each staircase.
Even if the other party can hide at the entrance of the stairs, it is impossible to pass through the stairs without being discovered.
So, how did this person get upstairs?
Every detail in the surveillance flashed through Chen Yan's mind one by one.
Wow!
Everyone's expressions, movements, and clothing are within the scope of Chen Yan's observation.
Two people returning from the night shift.
The woman is wearing a large trench coat. Is it possible that there is a child hidden inside?
have!
However, the woman had never been to the ninth floor, so it was impossible to send the dwarf there.
security guard……
Cleaning...
Card!
wrong!
The way the cleaning staff pushes the trash can...
has a problem!
The cleaner pushed the trash can from the underground garage into the elevator.
On the 12th floor, get out of the elevator, then clean up the trash, then push the trolley into the elevator again.
The 12th, 11th, and 10th floors all have similar hands pushing trash cans.
Moreover, when exiting the elevator on the 9th floor, the same action was taken.
However, after cleaning up the garbage on the 9th floor, the cleaning lady pushed the trash can into the elevator with one hand.
Every time I go downstairs, I push the trash can with one hand.
Operating the computer, one day, two days, three days!
The same cleaning lady pushes the trash can with one hand every time.
But, why was it only on that day that the trash cans were pushed with both hands on those three floors?
…
Early the next morning.
Wang Gang's information was returned very quickly.
In Unit 3 of Building 26, this student is not included in the registration information of all owners.
There are 14 children in the entire three units of Building 26.
Among them, 5 children go to school in No. 26 Primary School and are picked up and dropped off by their parents.
The four children are under 3 years old and have not gone to kindergarten.
Five others are already in middle school and high school.
The focus of the work of Wang Gang and his team shifted to this child who was wearing a school uniform and carrying a schoolbag, and might be pretending to be a patient with dwarfism.
Chen Yan didn't sleep a wink all night.
At dawn, he appeared in the Imperial Family Community.
Emperor Shijia Community Garbage Disposal Station.
Trash can No. 86.
"This..." The property manager looked very surprised and looked at the partition inside the trash can: "This is impossible..."
impossible?
How is this impossible?
The dwarf was about one meter tall, and when curled up, it was only half a meter.
Even if the body is more flexible, it may not be able to occupy this space.
"I was responsible for cleaning Building 26 that day. Where are you now?"
"Resigned."
Resigned?
The property manager nodded: "The cleaner left at noon on the day of the incident."
"She had family issues, and she told me about her resignation a week ago."
Premeditated!
Already planned!
"Chaoyang, based on the identity information left by the cleaning staff at the property, find this person as quickly as possible!"
Chen Yan looked ugly.
The other party has obviously already calculated this step.
An escape route was planned in advance.
But if you can run away from a monk, can you still run away from a temple?
As long as there is a clue, Chen Yan can follow the clues and uproot them all!
nine in the morning.
Detective Squadron Two.
Information about Wu Zhiguo’s tracking of the robber’s vehicle has been fed back.
Wu Zhiguo operated the screen projection and showed a photo of a car: "It's 6 o'clock this morning."
"This car was found in an abandoned garage in Nanshan."
In the photo, there is a car that was burned out and changed beyond recognition.
"Last night, through the Sky Eye system, we traced that the three robbers were driving a blue car."
"On the night of the incident, the car was stolen on Cuiping Road, and the owner has reported it to the police."
Sure enough, there was not much deviation from Chen Yan's guess.
The possibility of the other party being exposed on the vehicle is very small.
The car was stolen that night and burned in an abandoned repair shop.
The valuable clues in the car must have been destroyed.
However, since the other party used transportation, he would definitely leave some clues, such as photos taken at speed.
"Team Wu," Chen Yan looked at Wu Zhiguo: "Did the other party expose him in any way at intersections or when he was driving too fast?"
Wu Zhiguo shook his head: "We checked all intersection cameras where the vehicle passed, as well as information on speed photos."
"The other party was very cautious. While driving, he was still wearing a black hood and no facial features were exposed."
This group of thieves...
It's really unusual.
Chen Yan didn't seem to have this much trouble when investigating murder cases.
The clue to the vehicle was broken.
Wu Zhiguo had just finished his report, and there was news from Liu Qingshan.
The video information and employee information of the three stolen stores have been verified.
"We retrieved video data from three stores in the past month, as well as entry and exit information of all employees."
Liu Qingshan began to report the investigation.
"First, the employees."
"In Zhou Dasheng and Yisheng You Gold Shop, two people have worked together in the two stores in the past year."
"And both of them jumped from Zhou Dasheng to Yisheng You Gold Shop."
Click, the screen switched.
It was the photos and information of the two job-hopping people: "These two people worked at Zhou Dasheng for two and three years respectively."
"In January and April of this year, they were poached by Yisheng You Gold Shop."
"What is the current situation of these two people?"
Liu Qingshan shook his head: "No abnormality, they are still working at Yisheng You Gold Shop."
Chen Yan nodded. In this case, the possibility of normal job-hopping is greater.
"What is the situation at the Weiyi Jewelry Store?"
Liu Qingshan shook his head: "The jewelry store mainly sells diamonds, pearls, agates and other products."
"There is no overlap of staff at the jewelry store and these two gold shops."
"But," Liu Qingshan changed his style: "We have made some discoveries in the recent videos of the three stores."
Click.
The screen switched, and it was four groups of screenshots.
"In the past month, there have been four people who have been to these three stores."
Four?
Chen Yan leaned forward slightly.
It is certain that the robbers will scout the place when committing crimes.
Otherwise, it is impossible for the other party to complete the entire robbery process in just about a minute.
Therefore, the people who have entered these three stores at the same time are the focus of Chen Yan's attention.
The four groups of screenshots in the screen are two men, one woman, and a child.
"After comparison, it is found that the figures of these two men are basically consistent with the two people who broke into the houses and robbed the three stores."
Liu Qingshan grouped the photos.
"But, unfortunately, the other party wore a hat throughout the process, and the video did not capture their appearance."
Chen Yan nodded.
"The other party should have been on guard against this."
But it doesn't matter.
At least, Chen Yan and others can be sure that their pursuit direction is correct.
"As for this mother and daughter..." Liu Qingshan pointed to another group of photos in the screen: "It may just be a coincidence."
A woman, with a child, shopping in a jewelry store.
It's normal.
If Chen Yan had not discovered the existence of the dwarf, he might have ignored it.
But now...
"Master, this woman and child may be the real big fish!"
Moreover, Chen Yan noticed the time on the surveillance.
The latest date is 10:08 on October 12.
That day was Wednesday.
And it was at 10 a.m.
At 10 a.m., the elementary school student was not in school, but went to the jewelry store with his mother?
Hehe.
Chen Yan told Liu Qingshan about his discovery last night and the trash can partition.
"Now, it can be preliminarily determined that the person who broke into Hu Yuefei's house was the person dressed as an elementary school student in the picture. She should be a dwarf."
"The other party sneaked into Hu Yuefei's apartment building by hiding in the trash can partition."
"After the crime was completed, he hid at the staircase and waited for Hu Yuefei to get off the elevator and enter the room before taking the elevator openly. Pretending to go to school, he left the community!"
"Dwarf?"
Liu Qingshan really didn't expect it.
However, there is a question: "On the day of the crime, Hu Yuefei went home temporarily to get something."
"If the dwarf chose to commit the crime after 8 o'clock, it was because he knew Hu Yuefei's daily routine."
"But how did the dwarf find out that Hu Yuefei came back at 8:45?"
Chen Yan smiled and pointed to the woman who was shopping in the gold shop with the dwarf on the screen: "I didn't understand it at first."
"But now it seems that when the dwarf was stealing, it should be this woman who was always watching outside the community."
"When she found Hu Yuefei's car and returned to the community, she gave the dwarf a reminder."
"And, the figure of this woman..."
Chen Yan operated the computer and edited the figure that was walking outside the three stores in the video.
Compare it with the woman.
"No difference at all!"
So far, the three men in black who committed the theft in the three stores and the person who entered Hu Yuefei's home to steal have all been confirmed.
The most difficult thing in theft is to lock the suspect.
For example, the burglary of Hu Yuefei's home, there is no information in the strict monitoring network.
This is so magical.
I am not afraid of you hiding deep, I am afraid that even your shadow cannot be found.
Although, none of the facial features of the four people were captured by the surveillance.
But isn't dwarfism the biggest feature?
In the huge city of Liancheng, there are not many dwarf adults.
It is not easy to find them, but at least it is easier than finding a normal person.
"Master, since all four people have been found, the next step is to confirm their identities."
Liu Qingshan and Wu Zhiguo are good at this kind of thing.
Old detectives, they have been doing this kind of thing for a lifetime.
"Inform the physical characteristics of these four people, especially the dwarf adult, to all the detective teams in Liancheng and find this person!"
For the first time, the investigation of the case saw the dawn.
And Zhang Chaoyang also brought back good news.
It’s about the cleaner who resigned from the Imperial Family Community.
“Captain Chen, the cleaner has been found!”
