Return to the small mountain village in 1986

Chapter 388 Hiding in the mountains?Shake people!
In the era without surveillance, it was not as convenient for the police to handle cases as it would be in later generations.

But after the incident, police officers quickly questioned nearby residents and obtained some information, including how many of those people there were, what they looked like, what weapons they had in their hands, what direction they appeared from, and what direction they were heading after the robbery. direction and ran away.

Everyone on this street is a small surveillance system. After questioning everyone, you can get enough information.

The first thing that can be determined is that the group of people should have migrated from other places, so people nearby said they had never seen them.

Some people are not so sensitive to other people's facial features and cannot remember specific appearances, but some people have very good memories and can remember most of them with just one face-to-face encounter, especially some features, such as particularly thick eyebrows and particularly big mouths. , buck teeth, scars on the face, etc.

Huang Dazhi was riding a bicycle and naturally lagged behind Gao Mingcheng. However, when he arrived at Xinxin Clothing Store, he began to take out a pen and paper and asked nearby residents about the appearance of the group of robbers.

Xu was committing crimes on the run, and the group was not masked.

The advantage of wearing a mask is that it can effectively cover your face, but there is also a disadvantage of wearing a mask, that is, before you reach the target store, you will attract the attention of others because of your mask, which may lead to the failure of the robbery plan.

Huang Dazhi drew quickly on the paper while listening to the descriptions of the robbers from nearby neighbors.

Whenever the other person's description ends, Huang Dazhi has almost finished the painting, and then shows the painting to the person and asks if he looks like this.

Under the descriptions of many people, the portraits took shape bit by bit.

Huang Dazhi is an assistant police officer in the police station. He is not qualified to carry a gun, and he cannot handle cases alone. His fighting and grappling skills are average, but he is lucky. Gao Guobing asked him to learn the skill of painting portraits from an old detective, so he Now he is considered a special talent.

Although Gao Mingcheng has good physical fitness and can challenge several people alone, he is also an ordinary person and does not have clairvoyance or ears.

Therefore, he could not find the group of robbers quickly and could only rely on the information obtained by the police during the case.

Before getting any valid information, he temporarily stayed in the store to sort out the clothes in the store and count the losses, instead of pursuing blindly.

"Mingcheng, the portrait is out!" Huang Dazhi walked in with a stack of paper and handed it to Gao Mingcheng to see.

Gao Mingcheng immediately took the drawing papers and looked at them one by one.

There were five robbers in the group, and they ranged in age. Two were older, in their 40s, and three were younger, in their early twenties.

Their facial features are not the same, which can roughly rule out the possibility that they are a family.

The two older men both had beards that covered most of their faces. One of them had a bald head and an obvious scar on his scalp.

As for the three young people, two of them have ordinary looks, and one has a sharp look. He has obvious angular eyes, and he always looks squinting when he looks at people.

The owner of the shoe store next to Gao Mingcheng was impressed by that Diaojiao glance.

These five people had weathered faces and had not been groomed for a long time. They had a strong body odor and their clothes were shabby and dirty. Therefore, the police suspected that this group of people came from out of town to commit crimes.

A fugitive criminal like this from out of town will leave here quickly once he is captured. It is difficult to catch him again, so he must race against time to hunt him down.

Gao Mingcheng is Gao Bureau's nephew. This matter is not a secret in the county. Anyone who is well-informed will know that some gangsters in the county simply do not dare to come here to cause trouble, especially some gangsters. He suffered losses at the hands of Gao Mingcheng.

Therefore, the Xinxin Clothing Store has been safe and sound from its opening to the present. And because the clothing prices in the store are relatively high, the business does not seem to be very popular, so it is not easy to arouse the jealousy of peers.

But those colleagues didn't know that Gao Mingcheng's income in the store far exceeded theirs. Because when he went to Yangcheng to purchase goods, through Fan Chengyao's relationship, he got the latest models and the lowest prices from the clothing factory, and he also saved money. As for the shipping cost, as for the mid-range clothing, I bought it directly from Gao Shouwang. The price is also low, but the profit is very generous.

Therefore, some people's clothing stores may have better business than Gao Mingcheng, but they may not necessarily make more money than Gao Mingcheng.

It's just that Gao Mingcheng always keeps a low profile and won't brag about himself outside.

So the question arises, why was the first crime committed by the wandering criminal in the county was to rob Gao Mingcheng's store?
Even if the fugitive criminal didn't know that Gao Mingcheng had an uncle who was a deputy bureau, the location of his store was not the best in the entire county, and it was also far away from the train station and passenger terminal.

When fugitives arrive in the county, how do they choose their targets?

Is it random or intentional?

Gao Mingcheng remembered all the portraits on the paper and handed them back to Huang Dazhi.

Then the two went to the police station together to see if there was any latest news.

Gao Guobing was in the lobby of the police station, instructing his men to do things. When he saw Gao Mingcheng coming, he immediately called Gao Mingcheng over.

"There is good news. It has been determined that the group of robbers does not have a car. If they want to leave the county, they can only take trains and buses, or they can only hide in the mountains. Our police officers have chased them all the way. , if everything goes well, we can bring the person back." Gao Guobing said.

After the incident, Luo Li quickly came to call the police. The police station was not very far from Gao Mingcheng's store, only five or six minutes away.

In addition, the victim in this case is quite special. The police officers responded quickly and there were many people involved in handling the case.

In a short period of time, he had already investigated the general situation and then gave chase.

It’s just that communication is underdeveloped now and information cannot be communicated in a timely manner.

There is a landline in the police station, but if you want to make a call, you have to find another landline. For example, Gao Mingcheng's clothing store also installed a landline, but he did not install a landline in Gaojiacun, so the store was robbed. The matter could not be notified by phone, Huang Dazhi had to rush there on his bicycle to notify.Fortunately, Gao Mingcheng had finished his work and was about to return to the county. The two met halfway.

"Uncle, where did that group of people run to?" Gao Mingcheng asked calmly.

Gao Guobing did not hide anything and told all the situation. He just said the last sentence: "Mingcheng, you have to calm down. If you catch someone, you can beat them up, but don't beat them to death."

Gao Mingcheng nodded, he was naturally measured.

The consequences of beating someone and beating someone to death are obviously different.

After Gao Mingcheng got the latest news, he was ready to go.

Before leaving, he asked Huang Dazhi to take Luo Li home and closed the door of the clothing store.

It was already evening now, and it would soon be completely dark.

The rogue criminals robbed at this time, and they were premeditated. If it was morning, the clothing store had not opened yet, and there would not be much money in the drawer. Only in the evening could they rob the store of all its sales.

In addition, it will soon get dark, which is conducive to their escape and can effectively throw off their pursuers.

As long as you find a place to hide temporarily and wait for the wind to pass, you can run away smoothly.

Gao Mingcheng left the police station and headed north of the city.

The development in the south of the city is relatively backward, and most of it is villages and fields.

There are many villages and many peaks here. If you continue walking this way, you will reach the highest peak in the county, Xiongnan Peak.

Xiongnan Peak is steep and steep. In ancient times, bandits were entrenched on it. Due to the terrain, in a dangerous place, one man could block the pass and no one could open it, so it was difficult for officers and soldiers to suppress the bandits.

Xiongnan Peak is currently in an undeveloped state. When the economy becomes more economical, it will be developed into a forest park and other attractions for county residents to visit and exercise.

In his previous life, Gao Mingcheng had also been there, but now he was heading there all the way, and the scene he saw was completely different from what he remembered.

The road here is not hardened by cement, it is still a dirt road, and the road is not wide, but it can still be used by vehicles.

At the end of the road he saw a police car.

He glanced and saw that there was no one in the police car, so he looked ahead and guessed where the police officers should be.

The sky has completely darkened, and everything is pitch black except for the occasional flickering lights in the village.

Walking on a country road, you can hear a few dogs barking in the distance.

At this time, he heard someone's voice, and several people were coming towards him in front of him.

They didn't have flashlights, so they walked slower.

"Officer Song! Officer Zhang!" Gao Mingcheng shouted immediately when he heard a familiar voice.

Xiao Song and Xiao Zhang are Gao Guobing's favorite subordinates, and now they have been promoted to captains.

"Mingcheng! We didn't catch that group, but some nearby villagers said that a group of people entered the mountains with axes and machetes." Xiao Song walked a few steps quickly and came to Gao Mingcheng, and then pointed at a hill. mound.

The mountain is not big, but it is connected to Xiongnan Peak. After climbing over the mountain, you can reach Xiongnan Peak.

"We didn't bring flashlights and we didn't have enough manpower, so we planned to go back to the bureau to get equipment and call more people to search the mountains. I have already told the nearby villagers to ask the young people in the village to go into the mountains to search the mountains. Do you think it's okay to give each person five yuan?" Xiao Song said.

He knew that Gao Mingcheng was not short of money and was willing to give up, so he asked the villagers to go into the mountains together in advance.

As expected, Gao Mingcheng agreed immediately.

All he wanted now was to find the robber quickly, beat him up first, and then ask why he was only focusing on his store for robbery. He wanted to eliminate the unknown risk.

Otherwise, he is often not in the store and cannot protect the people in the store.

Gao Mingcheng said: "You go back to get your equipment and call people, I will go up the mountain first."

Xiao Song was stunned and seemed to want to say something, but Xiao Zhang had already said: "Okay, let's go and come back quickly!"

Xiao Zhang patted Xiao Song on the shoulder, then quickened his pace and headed towards the police car.

They all knew Gao Mingcheng's strength. Although it was inappropriate to go into the mountain alone in the dark, they didn't say anything more. They just went back as quickly as possible to get equipment and call people.
