Qin Ding continued, "This case was originally investigated by the Quancheng Public Security Bureau, but the circumstances of the case were beyond their control. The family of the victim hopes that the provincial department will send experts to accept the case."
Han Bin asked, "Is the victim's identity special?"
"The victim is a foreign Chinese, female, a freshman in Tsinghua University, who came to live in Quancheng during the summer vacation, was kidnapped on August 29, and the kidnappers extorted 10 million from the victim's parents.
Considering the safety of the victim, the family members did not call the police at that time, but chose to pay the ransom.
On September 3, the victim's father put the ransom money in the designated place. He thought that the kidnappers would release him after receiving the ransom, but who would have thought that on September 4, the kidnappers would demand another 20 million yuan in ransom.
This time the victim's parents chose to call the police, and the Quancheng Public Security Bureau took over the case, planning to arrest the victim while paying the ransom for the second time.
Because the amount of funds was relatively large this time, the kidnappers gave them a week to raise funds, and the ransom payment was scheduled for September 12. The police carried out surveillance at the ransom delivery location, and a male suspect took the ransom away.
The Quancheng police followed the suspect and found that the other party had plans to flee to other places. In order to prevent the suspect from getting out of control, they secretly arrested him.
At the same time, the suspect was quickly interrogated, asking about the whereabouts of the victim and his accomplices. In less than an hour, the suspect was recruited and confessed where the victim was hiding.
The police rushed there immediately, but it was still a step too late. The suspect had already left with the hostages. The Quancheng police were exposed, which became a turning point in the case. "
Qin Ding paused for a moment, giving Han Bin some time to digest.
"Qin Detachment, how is the victim's situation now?"
Qin Ding continued, "After the Quancheng police were exposed, they were worried that the rest of the suspects would tear up their tickets.
On the second day after the arrest operation failed, the victim’s parents received a letter containing a memory card, which contained a video of the victim’s abuse. The victim’s mother suffered a cerebral hemorrhage after watching the video and was admitted to the hospital. Rescue in intensive care unit.
The good news is that the suspect did not tear up the ticket, but continued to ask for ransom. This time the amount was doubled, and the amount demanded was as high as 40 million.
At the same time, it also proposed that the police should not be allowed to intervene in the case again, otherwise the ticket would be torn up directly. "
Hearing this, Han Bin couldn't help but frown. This case doesn't make any sense.
Generally, after the kidnappers learn that the family members of the victim have called the police, their first reaction is to tear up the ticket to minimize the risk of being caught, which is also a form of revenge for the family members of the victim.
After learning that the police had arrested their accomplices, they dared to continue to extort ransom. This kind of operation is very intriguing.
Han Bin said, "The Quancheng police have been responsible for the investigation of this case. Normally, they have been following up and investigating the case. They are familiar with the situation of the case. Now that the provincial department has taken over, we have to re-familiarize with the case. It may not be the best. choose."
Qin Ding nodded, "You're right, but the problem now is that the family members of the victim no longer trust the Quancheng police. They think that the Quancheng police's lack of capability led to the failure of the arrest operation, which indirectly caused the victim to suffer huge damage. "
Han Bin said, "From your point of view, the family members of the victim are quite energetic."
Qin Dingdao, "The victim's family is an international friend, and the victim is studying at the highest domestic university. Once this case spreads, the impact will be very bad. Now that the Internet is so developed, and the identity of the victim is quite special, it is likely to cause trouble all over the country. The provincial government also considered the actual situation before planning to let the Serious Case Detachment take over."
Han Bin said, "Do you have a detailed file?"
Qin Ding took out a document and handed it to Han Bin, "Look slowly, don't worry."
Han Bin took the file and looked through it carefully.
Qin Ding and Huang Kuangshi sat quietly by the side, drinking tea and smoking.
After a while, Han Bin put down the materials.
Qin Ding asked, "How is it? Are you sure you can rescue the hostages?"
Han Bin shook his head, "No."
The Quancheng police have already exposed the case. The suspect may tear up the ticket at any time, and may even have already done so. Han Bin has not officially taken over the case, so how can he be sure
The more it is at this time, the more I can't talk enough.
Qin Ding handed Han Bin a cigarette, "Do your best."
Qin Ding has rich experience in criminal investigation, so he is naturally aware of the difficulty of this case. To successfully solve this case, in addition to the ability of criminal investigators, luck is also very important.
After leaving the office of the detachment leader, Huang Kuang patted Han Bin on the shoulder, "This case is indeed difficult, and it is normal to have pressure, but don't put too much pressure on yourself, just do your best as the Qin detachment said. "
Han Bin said, "Captain, the provincial government often has to accept this kind of mess?"
Huang Kuangshi said, "Otherwise, the people under the easy-to-solve case would have already solved it, and they would still leave the credit to you."
Han Bin continued, "Then what if the kidnappers tore up the ticket just after I took over the case?"
"Then catching the kidnapper is an explanation to the victim's family." Huang Kuangshi sighed, "Actually, the mood of the victim's family is a bit similar to that of a terminally ill patient who sees no hope for treatment in a municipal hospital.
He wanted to be transferred to a provincial hospital for better treatment. In fact, he may not think that the provincial hospital can cure him, but he just didn't want to leave regrets. "
Han Bin said, "Understood."
…
Back in the office, Han Bin called everyone together for a meeting.
Two copies of the case materials were made, one was given to Wang Chang and the other was given to Nie Pengxiang.
Han Bin described the key points of the case, and then asked, "This case is more urgent. If you have any opinions, you can speak directly."
Wang Changdao, "Since the suspect knows that the family members of the victim have called the police, he may have torn up his ticket and is now preparing to abscond with the money. I think we should make a plan in advance."
Nie Pengxiang said, "The criminal investigation team in Quancheng City is getting worse and worse. This case is really fucked up, and we have to help wipe our ass."
Although Nie Pengxiang's words were a bit rough, they spoke out the aspirations of most people present.
"It's not too late, let's take action first, grasp the situation of the case as soon as possible, and then make further arrangements." Han Bin glanced at the crowd, and ordered, "Team Leader Wang, you are responsible for contacting the Quancheng Criminal Investigation Brigade, and the arrested The suspect referred to the Homicide Squad.
Team Leader Nie, you are in charge of contacting the victim's father and asking him to come to the Serious Case Detachment to take notes. "
"yes."
Everyone split up.
…
Half an hour later, the door of the office of the first squadron rang, "Dong Dong."
"Come in."
The door opened, and a middle-aged man walked in and asked, "Is this the Second Brigade or the First Squadron? I am the father of the victim of the 8.29 case."
Han Bin stood up, "What's your name?"
"My surname is Huang, and my name is Huang Ze'an. Who is the person in charge of the case?"
Han Bin said, "I am."
Huang Ze'an was stunned for a moment, "You...how to call you, you are too young."
"My surname is Han." Han Bin answered succinctly, and he ignored the age aspect.
Huang Ze'an realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, "Captain Han, don't mind, I have no other intentions."
Han Bin pointed to the chair opposite, "Sit down, I came here today to learn more about some cases."
Huang Ze'an took out a pack of cigarettes and handed one to Han Bin, "Captain Han, I am just such a daughter, she is very outstanding, and she went to Tsinghua University last year, you must save her."
"I will do my best to investigate the case." Han Bin comforted and asked, "Mr. Huang, was there anything unusual about your daughter Huang Yingying before she was kidnapped?"
"I don't think there's anything unusual about her. My daughter is very good and rarely worries us."
"I read in the file that Huang Yingying was kidnapped between 12:00 am and 1:30 am. What was she doing at that time?"
"Isn't school starting soon? In those few days my daughter often played with her classmates and friends, and my wife and I could understand it, so we didn't care about her.
However, she usually rarely goes out so late. "
Han Bin asked, "Huang Yingying has a lot of acquaintances in Quancheng?"
Huang Ze'an said, "Yes, my daughter's elementary school and junior high school are both in Quancheng. We only went abroad when she was in the third year of junior high school. In fact, we are no different from ordinary Chinese."
Han Bin complained, there is still a difference, otherwise you wouldn't be able to see me.
"Mr. Huang, generally speaking, kidnapping cases are targeted. I will do some research on your family and daughter in advance. Do you think the suspect is asking for money, or does he have other purposes?"
"Seeking money, it must be asking for money. If they weren't asking for money, they wouldn't be extorting ransom again and again." Huang Ze'an showed a remorseful look,
"My daughter was driving a red Porsche on the night of the accident. It was her birthday present when she was admitted to Tsinghua University. Someone must be watching her. If I knew it would happen, I would never buy it for her. Such a nice car."
"After you learned that Huang Yingying was kidnapped, why didn't you choose to call the police immediately?"
Huang Ze'an sighed, "The suspect threatened me to tear up my ticket if I dared to call the police. I am just such a daughter, and I don't want her to have an accident. I just want to pay them a ransom and ask them to let my daughter go."
Who knew that what they said didn't count. Not only did they not release my daughter after getting the money, but they extorted ransom again.
I knew the words of this group of people could not be trusted, so I chose to call the police. "
