Chapter 836: Major Robbery Case
The speed of the case’s progress was very fast.
By the second day after discovering the body, all four suspects had already been apprehended, and the case’s details were thoroughly understood, with critical evidence obtained.
The Criminal Investigation Team worked overtime for two days, prepared all pertinent materials, and was ready to transfer them to the prosecutor’s office.
Besides these four individuals, a private investigator who helped Li Guifen in tracing related clues was also indicted, along with Zhang Shaoyang himself.
He knew Lin Ting was being threatened but did not take any effective measures, indulging his wife’s harmful actions towards Lin Qing.
Objectively, he condoned Li Guifen and others, ultimately leading to the grave consequence of Lin Lin Ting’s death.
Additionally, after Li Guifen and the four others killed Lin Qing, he knowingly concealed the murder without reporting it, which strictly speaking constituted harboring criminals.
Therefore, the police arrested Zhang Shaoyang himself.
"Are there really such people in the world?"
In the car, Forensic Doctor Shen was indignant after hearing Lu Chuan talk about the case’s situation.
"There are all sorts of people; Zhang Shaoyang fundamentally remained under his father-in-law’s roof."
Zhang Shaoyang’s business was quite large, partly because his first capital came from his father-in-law, and also because his father-in-law had extensive connections that helped him expand quite a bit of business over the years.
Thus, even after Zhang Chaoyang became wealthy, he couldn’t break free from Li Guifen family’s control over him.
Ultimately, it led to today’s tragedy.
Actually, not all live-in sons-in-law are low-status.
On the road, there was a police academy classmate who married as a live-in son-in-law after graduation but also worked as a local policeman at a precinct.
At the end of last year, while assisting in the capture of a wanted criminal, he bravely earned a personal third-class merit.
He was directly promoted to the position of deputy director at the local precinct.
With the personal third-class merit and the deputy director position at the local precinct, this greatly elevated Lu Chuan’s classmate’s status in his father-in-law’s house.
The child, who was following the wife’s surname, even changed his surname back.
He now participates in their family’s clan ceremonies.
There’s no choice; though his wife’s family is wealthy, the most prestigious job within the family was driving a taxi.
With a personal third-class merit and the position of deputy director at the precinct, coupled with a promising future, what a treasure it is to become a live-in son-in-law!
So, being a live-in son-in-law isn’t important; it’s about whether you’re competent.
In the coming period, there wasn’t much happening at the Criminal Investigation Team.
The Criminal Investigation Team was also relatively calm.
Time quickly passed to June.
In a few days, the national college entrance exam is due, and every year the police deploy a sizable force at various test sites to handle emergencies.
This year is no exception.
"According to the bureau’s deployment and requirements, we must deploy 50 people for emergency response during the college entrance exam period."
Lu Chuan did not have this task at the Criminal Investigation Team, but it’s different at the Criminal Investigation Team, which responds to security for major events by allocating personnel.
The local police stations in the districts, counties, and towns are duty-bound, practically committing all personnel in such critical times.
The Criminal Investigation Team also deployed nearly half of the skilled personnel for related tasks.
"This time, our main role is to aid the city’s bureau, so everyone should stay alert. Just three days, keep it up!"
"I’ll make sure you have good logistical support!"
Lu Chuan’s claim of logistical support wasn’t provided by the Criminal Investigation Team itself.
He had arranged with Lu Yao to spend a little money to improve the standard of their meals.
On June 7th, the first day of college entrance exams, Lu Chuan went to the Criminal Investigation Team early in the morning.
He planned to go to the site with his colleagues.
However, before he could set off, he received a call from Li Donglin.
The Major Crime Unit was mobilizing; Binzhou City just witnessed a major armed robbery!
Without inquiring about the specifics, Lu Chuan immediately drove towards Binzhou City.
On the road, he reported the situation to the district bureau, which of course had no objections.
Lu Chuan, as a member of the provincial major crime unit, must immediately drop any local tasks and proceed according to the provincial requirements when an emergency arises.
The city bureau had already been instructed on this matter, so the district bureau certainly would not intervene.
At 1:30 in the afternoon, Lu Chuan arrived at the Binzhou City Public Security Bureau.
Li Donglin had arrived earlier.
As for the other team members, Luo Qiang was there, but Song Mingguang and Wang Song hadn’t arrived yet.
He was the third to arrive.
"Lu Chuan, sit over here."
Lu Chuan walked over to sit beside Li Donglin: "Director Li, armed robbery?"
Li Donglin nodded: "It happened yesterday afternoon, three suspects fully armed robbed a bank cash transit vehicle!"
Damn!
Lu Chuan was taken aback.
What era is this, and yet there are still people daring to rob a cash transit vehicle.
In the past, it was frequently heard of cash transit vehicles being robbed, banks being robbed, but such cases haven’t occurred in the recent four to five years.
Because once robbed, it’s impossible to escape.
Plus, in earlier years, gun control wasn’t as strict, so some crude firearms were scattered outside, but over the years, as social management levels have gradually increased, gun control has become increasingly strict.
Robbing a cash transit vehicle with firearms...
Even films don’t dare depict this much nowadays.
Because given current societal conditions, it’s hard to make sense of the scenario.
Soon, others arrived successively.
At 3:30 in the afternoon.
Binzhou City’s Criminal Investigation Team Captain Gao Xiang started to introduce the case.
The first sentence was: "Director Li and experts from the Major Crime Unit, apologies, we meet again."
Gao Xiang was quite unfortunate.
This past year, Binzhou City seemingly hasn’t been peaceful, with ongoing major cases.
Moreover, the Major Crime Unit frequently had to intervene.
But there’s really no choice because yesterday’s case is extremely vile and has significant impact, with widespread public discourse already.
However, the police are clueless about any leads apart from knowing there are three suspects, nothing more.
"This robbery occurred at 6:08 PM yesterday afternoon."
"The target was a cash transit vehicle from Binzhou City Development Bank."
"The site was right at the entrance of the Northwest Road Branch, where staff were transferring cash turnover boxes from the bank."
"Just as they were about to finish, three armed individuals charged out, and after the robbery, they left swaggeringly, but we have found no leads so far."
"Did there encounter resistance at the scene?"
Li Donglin suddenly inquired.
"No, the three individuals and security personnel did not clash; no gunshots, and no injuries occurred at the scene."
"They only robbed over 8 million in cash."
Li Donglin nodded: "Alright, continue."
Gao Xiang proceeded with the report: "There’s surveillance video from the scene, let me play it for you."
