Chapter 80 He Made a Great Contribution
Wu Song met Qi Dagong, the head of the special task force, at the command center.
He's in his forties, but he's in great shape, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. For someone his age, he deserves the title of "handsome".
"You're Wu Song?" Qi Dagong sized Wu Song up and down. "Impressive build. Just standing there, you exude a sense of intimidation towards criminal suspects. I've heard you can sense who has committed murder. Tell me, have I ever committed murder?"
"Reporting to Director Qi, I've tried it. My intuition can sense the criminals who committed murder, but I can't sense them if they were killed by gunfire or if the other party was defending their country."
"Heh..." Qi Dagong chuckled, "You think that Shen Fang killed someone?"
"Yes."
"Based on the circumstances of this case and the crimes committed by this group in several southern provinces, no women were involved when they carried out the crimes," Qi Dagong said.
"The Pledge of Allegiance!"
Wu Song immediately thought of the case they had solved before, and how Zhang Weida treated his accomplices.
Perhaps some people don't need to take action.
But you must also kill someone to pay the price for your loyalty.
It was Li Ailian who killed Li Yanan, who had taken her place at university. Although this was what Li Ailian wanted to do, wasn't it also a way of paying her dues to Zhang Weida?
"She didn't participate in the operation, but if she was part of the gang, given the ruthlessness of the suspected leader, I don't think it's likely she would have kept her hands clean."
"This woman is indeed very suspicious, but these are just speculations, not solid evidence. We still don't have enough solid evidence!" Qi Dagong took a breath. "This case has had a very bad impact, and time is too tight. Gaotan is a city with a population of one million in the urban area. We can't carry out high-intensity checks on people leaving the city for a long time. That would have too much impact on economic production activities."
They didn't care about anything else and brought her back for questioning.
Besides, isn't she renting someone else's house? Find the landlord and have them lead our people in to search the place.
If we can't find any useful clues, we'll release her after 24 hours. Afterward, we'll have someone keep a 24-hour watch on her to see if our actions will alert her and cause her to contact other suspects.
Qi Dagong quickly assigned tasks to the arrest team and then looked at Wu Song again. "I don't know if you really have that so-called ability, or if you just happened to run into it before. It doesn't matter. I'll just assume you do."
Your next task is to continue the large-scale investigation, report anyone you suspect, and the rest of the task force will follow up. If you are right in the end and your clues lead to the arrest of that audacious gang of criminals, the task force and I will recommend you for a commendation!
"I guarantee I will complete the mission!" Wu Song stood at attention and saluted.
"Okay, go investigate. I'll be waiting for your good news."
"yes!"
Wu Song put down his hand and quickly walked out of the command center.
At the meeting, Liu Shutong was called upon. "Let's go, let's get back to work!"
"Brother Song, what did Director Qi ask you to do?" Liu Shutong tilted her head, looking at Wu Song with curiosity. "Is he going to transfer you to the provincial department?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Wu Song smiled wryly. "They just asked about my investigation into Shen Fang and tested whether I could sense who had killed someone. Do you know how they tested me?"
"Are you asking if he has ever killed anyone?"
How did you know?
"Because I know he's killed people!" Liu Shutong said. "Back when he was the captain of the criminal investigation team, he was shot twice and killed three people while trying to apprehend a group of criminals. Hey, Song-ge, what was your answer?"
"I can only sense that he's a bad person who has killed people."
"Honestly, Song-ge, if your intuition continues to work, reaching the provincial level won't be the end. I think you might even get into the ministry."
"Aren't you overthinking it?"
Wu Song smiled but did not reply.
Do you want to join the department?
If going to the ministry would allow for the solving of more major cases, unlike the time spent in the North City Branch where there are often gaps in case handling, then that would definitely be the ideal option.
But if it weren't for his work in criminal investigation, and lighting those incense sticks wouldn't have any benefit for him, then going anywhere wouldn't have much appeal for Wu Song.
However, no matter what, it's too far off to think about these things now.
……
In the afternoon, Wu Song and Liu Shutong continued their investigation within the city's steel plant.
Halfway through the investigation, the pager rang. It read, "Xu Bin, call back."
Wu Song immediately found the nearest public phone and dialed Xu Bin's number, which he had long since memorized.
"Hey, Brother Bin, what's up?"
"Come back to the group, kid. You seem to have done a great job. Also, your task assignments might need to be adjusted." Xu Bin's voice was filled with suppressed joy.
"I'll be right back!"
"Let's go back to the task force first!" Wu Song called to Liu Shutong as they returned to the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
Upon arriving at the main conference room, Li Xiang and Xu Bin noticed Wu Song and waved with smiles. After Wu Song walked over, Li Xiang patted Wu Song's arm three times. "Great job, Comrade Wu Song! You've done a great job. Do you know what you found in that woman's house?"
A gun! Not a stolen gun, but a standard-issue pistol.
As he spoke, Li Xiang lowered his voice and said, "After checking the gun's serial number, we discovered that it was the service weapon that the Hunan Provincial Economic Police had lost during a robbery of a transport vehicle. Although that woman named Shen Fang is still silent, it has to be said that this case has made a major breakthrough!"
"Oh? Then I'm pretty lucky." Wu Song smiled and nodded.
"Luck and skill are both indispensable!" Li Xiang gripped Wu Song's hand tightly. "Let's go. Director Qi and Director Liu said they'd take you to the command center again as soon as you got back. You've really given our North City Branch Chief a piece of your mind!"
……
"Director Qi, Director Liu, Wu Song is back."
Li Xiang once again led Wu Song into the command center.
This time, unlike last time when everyone was doing their own thing and didn't care who came in, many people in the command center turned to look at Wu Song.
Meanwhile, Director Qi Dagong, Bureau Chief Liu Zhengyi, and other high-ranking members of the special task force also wore smiles.
His eyes were full of admiration as he looked at Wu Song.
"Wu Song, you've done a great job!" Qi Dagong smiled and pointed at Wu Song. "Your team leader must have told you earlier, right? That woman is definitely suspicious. Your intuition was spot on!"
Okay, I'll see if you can find this Shen Fang. I believe your intuition is really that effective.
Next, your task assignments will be adjusted. You'll still be in your group, but you won't need to go door-to-door to investigate. Each investigation team will prepare a list of suspects, and you'll be responsible for taking your partner to visit and investigate those on the suspect list.
