Chapter 16: Tracks.
By this time it was already nine in the evening. Li Hui couldn't help but yawn, "I'm trapped to death."
"Don't you pretend you're a night owl? Are you sleepy?" Han Bin smiled.
"Brother Bin, you don't know, I'm a patient now, should I rest?" Li Hui hummed.
"Li Hui, what kind of illness do you have, does it matter?" Tian Li asked worriedly.
Li Hui scratched his head and said, "It's okay, it's a small matter."
"Crack…" With noise, the door to the control room opened. Zhang Ping came in from outside and said: "Comrades, you have worked hard, see what I have brought you."
"Coffee, fries, hamburger." Tian Li smiled bitterly, "Captain Zhang, will you let us sleep tonight?"
"Oh, there is no other way. The suspect, in this case, did not leave much evidence. We will spend as much time as necessary. Until we find the stolen goods and the tools used in the crime, it will be difficult to close the file, you need to speed up. " Zhang Ping said.
"Yes, after eating Zhang's supper, I don't think about closing my eyes tonight." Li Hui said with emotion.
"Don't be mediocre, I will investigate with you tonight. If you don't sleep, I won't sleep either." Zhang Ping said.
"Captain Zhang, you don't always come home, your beautiful wife is going to have ideas." Li Hui joked.
"Come on, my child is still talking." Zhang Ping scolded with a smile: "How is it? Did you find any clues?"
"No" Li Hui and Tian Li shook their heads.
"Han Bin, how about your side?" Zhang Ping said.
Han Bin thought about it and said: "I think there may be some omissions that confuse our direction of the investigation."
"What omissions?"
"We just checked the recordings of the thief's escape route surveillance cameras. If the thief hasn't escaped, will he still be in the hospital?" Han Bin said.
"No, the police are there, and the noise is so loud, how could he not run away," Tian Li said in surprise.
"I don't think that's possible either. If he didn't run away quickly and was so stupid to stay in the hospital, isn't he in danger of being caught?" Li Hui said.
"The most dangerous place is the safest place, and we did not investigate inside the hospital." Han Bin said.
"Police from the police station investigated the hospital grounds, and no suspicious persons were found." Zhang Ping said.
Han Bin took the map of the hospital, studied it, and said: "Will, the thief, enter another building in the hospital after leaving the hallway."
"There is surveillance throughout the hospital buildings. Entering another building is like leaving evidence. Even if there is no investigation now, the thief cannot escape suspicion to come up." Tian Li said.
"What if the thief enters another building for a legitimate reason?" Han Bin asked rhetorically.
Han Bin's statement makes sense. If the thief enters an ambulatory building for a legitimate reason after committing the theft, and once the investigation softens, he leaves the hospital to destroy the tools of the crime and dispose of the stolen goods. " Zhang Ping said.
"If Han Bin's thought is correct, could it be a doctor who committed the crime?" Li Hui boldly guessed.
"Check the surveillance of the entrance to the hospital buildings." Zhang Ping said.
"The hospital buildings have three entrances, the front and back doors, and the stairs. The front and back doors are monitored. The stairs are unmonitored. However, the corridors leading to each floor of the staircase are monitored and verified. " Li Hui mentioned.
"Next, check the monitoring of the front and back doors of the outpatient building," said Zhang Ping.
Following this order, the four were divided into two groups and began to investigate personnel who entered the ambulatory building during the period after the theft and before the police arrived.
If a person enters the outpatient building of the hospital with a bag or suitcase during this time, they will be included in the investigation. If the other party has just entered through the hospital door and is photographed by the hospital door surveillance and he has no time to commit the theft, then it will be omitted from the crime.
After half an hour, Tian Li stood up and said: "Captain Zhang, I found a suspicious person."
Tian Li pointed at the monitor and said, "Look at this man, at 4:20 minutes he is carrying a woven bag in the hospital building."
Han Bin glanced: "This man's figure looks a bit like the suspect."
"Where did this person come from?" Zhang Ping said.
Tian Li replayed the video and said, "I found out that at 3:30 p.m., he entered the hospital building with a hand-woven bag, and then did not appear in front of the camera again."
"In other words, between 3:30 p.m. and 4:20 p.m., he is not in the surveillance zone." Zhang Ping said.
"Not bad. Where is he now?" Han Bin asked.
"He took the elevator to the eighth floor, entered room 805, but he never got out." Tian Li said.
Zhang Ping stood up and said, "What are you waiting for, take action."
......
Room 805 was a sunrise room with six beds. In it, an old lady was lying by the window, and a man and a woman were sitting by the bed.
"Wang Jie, you can go home, it's late," said the old lady.
"Go ahead, you can come home, let me be alone with mom." said the woman sitting next to her.
Wang Jie walked to the door, looked into the yard, and said:
"Xiaofang, Mum's clothes are dirty. I will take them back and wash them. I will bring them back tomorrow."
The woman named Xiaofang took some clothes from the closet and handed them to Wang Jie. He took them and put them aside in the woven bag.
"What are you doing with such a big bag?" Xiaofang asked.
"I still have work to do, and will take it back to do it at night."Wang Jie said.
"I will see you tomorrow," Xiaofang said.
"Mom, please rest. I'll be back." Wang Jie said that word and left the room.
At the door of the ward, Xiaofang greeted Wang Jie: "The day after tomorrow, my mother is going to have an operation. How much can you collect?"
"I collected about a hundred thousand, is that enough?" Wang Jie said.
"Don't joke, where did you get so much money, I'm serious with you," Xiaofang said.
"Xiaofang, don't worry about the money, and I just borrowed it and I will also help you cure your mother of her illness." Wang Jie said.
"Thank you Wang Jie," Xiaofang said.
"What a stupid thing, isn't your mother my mother?" Wang Jie reached out and touched Xiaofang's face.
"Get home early and work less," Xiaofang said.
"Hey, tomorrow morning, I'm going baking some millet, buy some steamed buns and eggs and tea, and I'll bring them to you." Wang Jie replied, "I will go home, there is a wire bed, at night you lie down and rest, don't get too tired."
"Yeah." Xiaofang nodded.
When Wang Jie turned around and was about to walk to the elevator, he found two men walking side by side, they seemed to be staring at him. He turned around and found a man and a woman were also walking on the other side, blocking the road behind him. He swallowed and forced himself to smile: "Xiaofang, come in."
"I watched you leave, then come in," Xiaofang said.
"Come in, obey," Wang Jie said sternly.
Seeing her husband's somewhat ugly expression, Xiaofang asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, Your mother can't be left alone. Come in." Wang Jie urged.
Xiaofang answered and walked into the room.
At this moment, Zhang Ping and the other people were already in front and behind, blocking Wang Jie's path.
