Attending ex-girlfriend's wedding, arresting the groom's officer on the spot

Because the amount involved in this case was relatively large, I went directly to work at the High-tech Zone Criminal Police Brigade after the incident.

Winter has arrived, and the temperature in the entire Haizhou city has been dropping in the past few days, reaching below zero degrees Celsius.

However, due to the dry weather recently, the first snow has not fallen since the beginning of winter.

Suddenly, when everyone arrived at the crime scene, it was already 1:30 in the afternoon.

"Captain Lu! You're here!"

A slightly plump, short middle-aged man greeted Lu Chuan and others.

The director of the Chengbei Police Station quickly said, "Captain Lu, this is Zhang Dabao, the person in charge of the mine."

Thank you. Zhang Dabao was standing on the stairs of the office building at first. When he saw Lu Chuan's police car coming, he trotted all the way to Lu Chuan's side.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Dabao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "What's the matter?"

"Ten million in cash, just gone like that, I...I'm going to hang myself too."

Lu Chuan had already roughly understood the circumstances of the case on the way. The Chengbei Police Station was the first to be alerted to the case, which was relatively large and involved tens of millions, so it reported it to the Criminal Police Brigade immediately.

"Let's go to the scene first."

Zhang Dabao nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, let's go to the scene, let's go to the scene."

The crime scene of the theft was in an empty room on the right side of the first floor of the office building.

According to the information we learned in advance, the Chinese New Year is approaching, and the coal mine in the north of the city plans to stop production. They just withdrew 1 million in cash from the bank yesterday and had planned to distribute it to the workers today, but the money was stolen that night.

"Mr. Zhang, why don't you clock in when you get paid? How can you withdraw cash?"

It seems that few people receive their wages in cash nowadays. Most people use card swiping and bank transfer. Jin Zhuan was a little puzzled as to why this coal mine still wanted to take out so much cash to pay the workers.

This in itself brings security risks to the funds. If the money is transferred directly through a bank card, this kind of thing will never happen.

Zhang Dabao lowered his head and said, "In fact, we usually pay our workers' wages by swiping their cards at the bank. It's just that when we pay bonuses at the end of each year, we always use the method of cashing them out. We also want to hold a celebration meeting. The performance of our coal mine has been pretty good in the past two years. Giving cash to everyone feels different from directly transferring money to their accounts."

Zhang Dabao has taken over this coal mine for 10 years. The benefits in the first two years were not very good, but in later years, with the rise in coal prices and the improvement of their technology, the workers' treatment has become better and better, and the benefits of the coal mine have also been getting better and better.

This coal mine is not very big, and all the workers in total are less than 300 people. With a bonus of 1 million yuan, basically everyone can get more than 000 yuan on average at the end of the year.

Moreover, this is not the first time that this place has distributed year-end bonuses in cash. In the past 1 years, there were no year-end bonuses except in the first two years because of the losses at that time. In the following years, the bonuses were distributed in cash.

But this time, something went wrong.

The Chengbei Police Station has already taken a rough look at the crime scene. In fact, there is nothing special about this crime scene. Because the cash was placed on the first floor, there was a lot of movement of people.

As soon as I entered the building, I found that the hygiene inside was not very good, and there were black footprints all over the floor.

"Are there a lot of people coming in?" He turned around and looked at the other side of the corridor, only to find that there were relatively fewer footprints there.

Zhang Dabao explained: "We were going to hold a celebration meeting this morning. At 10 a.m., I sent people to move the money, but they found that a lot of the money was gone. People came to see, and later we called the police, and the police came. We were all in the mine, and because there was coal slag on the ground outside, it was quite dirty when we walked back and forth. Usually, we have strict management, and underground workers usually don't come up."

But in this case, it would be very difficult for Lu Chuan to conduct a footprint survey on site, or in other words, it is basically impossible based on the current situation.

"Violent destruction."

Chen Guo, director of the Chengbei Police Station, pointed to the lock on the door that had been pried open.

"We have roughly understood the situation. After the cash was taken back last night, Mr. Zhang sent two people to guard it. This morning, both of them were unconscious, and the money was gone. But what we found inside was rather strange."

When Chen Guo came here in the morning, he did some investigation work.

"First of all, we did not see any suspicious persons entering the office building last night or at the time of the incident on the surveillance camera."

Lu Chuan had already noticed this. When they came in just now, they found that there was surveillance camera in front of the door of the office building, and this building only had one entrance and exit.

In other words, if the suspect had entered through the main entrance, he would have been recorded by the surveillance camera, but Chen Guo found nothing unusual in the surveillance during the investigation.

"The house in front belongs to the finance department of the coal mine. The windows of this house have anti-theft steel bars. We checked and found that they were not damaged."

When I entered the room, there was only a metal box and two desks.

Zhang Dabao went on to say, "Last night I sent two security guards from the mine to look after the money, because 1 million is too much money to fit in the safe in the finance department, so we put a metal cabinet in this house and put all the money in it."

The crime scene had been destroyed beyond recognition.

The footprints on the ground were disorganized. They should be the footprints of the people who carried the boxes yesterday, as well as the footprints of the people from the mine who came in today after they found out that the money was gone.

In addition, the lock on the iron box had been knocked open.

Lu Chuan leaned over and took a look: "Who has the keys to these padlocks?"

Zhang Dabao replied, "The key to the padlock is in the finance department. It was the finance department that took out the money yesterday. I came over to take a look yesterday afternoon. The finance department is in charge of all the arrangements for the money. It has been the same in previous years. Who knew something would go wrong this year?"

"What's the situation with the two security guards?"

Chen Guo said: "Two people are unconscious, but they were not knocked unconscious, they were probably knocked unconscious. When we came here this morning, they were still unconscious and had been sent to the hospital. The test results are not out yet."

Lu Chuan nodded, and then began to observe the room carefully.

Although the footprints in the room were messy and scattered, it was impossible for the other party to commit the crime in there without leaving any clues.

In addition, 1 million is not a small amount, and how the other party transported it away is also a problem.

Qin Chuan first came to the window to check the anti-theft grille on the window.

Since the surveillance camera at the gate did not capture their figures, the suspects were most likely to have entered through the window. (End of this chapter)
