At number 204, Unit 3, Building 6, in front of Wu Xiao Hai's house.
"Knock Knock."
There were two knocks on the door, but no one in the room answered.
"Knock Knock knock..."
There were three more knocks on the door.
"Who is this?"
A woman's voice came from the room.
"Custody office; open the door."
A male voice came from outside.
"Why is the Oversight Office here?" asked the woman."We are here to find Wu Xiao Hai, Wells Restaurant Purchasing Department Manager."
"He's not home, you can come back another day," the woman said.
"Open the door first," the man outside shouted.
The woman looked through the peephole and saw there was a man in a dark blue uniform standing outside. Then she opened the door and mumbled: "There's no need for you to come in, but Wu Xiao Hai is indeed not at home."
Three people were standing in front of the door, Li Hui, who stood in the middle, was wearing the uniform of the Supervision and Administration Office, while Han Bin and Sun Xiao Peng were wearing ordinary clothes. Han Bin looked at the woman who opened the door. She was in her twenties, short and thin, and asked: "What's your name?"
"Who are you? Why don't you wear a uniform?" The woman wondered.
Han Bin showed his police ID card: "I'm from the criminal police."
"Criminal police?" The woman took a step back: "What are you doing here?"
"We are here to find Wu Xiao Hai," Han Bin said and walked straight into the house.
"Hey, don't come in, Wu Xiao Hai isn't home," the woman shouted.
Han Bin glanced around the room and winked at Li Hui, "Seek."
"Why are you searching my house?" asked the woman.
"Sit on the sofa; I have something to ask you," Han Bin scolded.
The woman was a little scared and a little skeptical; she sat down on the sofa with her hands on her chest and turned her face to the side. Han Bin turned on the law enforcement recorder and said: "I'll take your written statement now, and you'll answer anything I ask of you."
"Name, age, sex, ethnicity..."
"Xie Gui Fang, 24, female, Han ethnicity..."
"You, what is your relationship with Wu Xiao Hai?"
"Girlfriend."
"Does he live here?"
"Yes."
"Where is he?"
"I do not know."
"Where do you work?"
"Wells Restaurant."
"What are you doing at the restaurant?"
"Waitress."
At this time, Li Hui and Sun Xiao Peng returned to the living room and shook their heads at Han Bin. Han Bin took out his cell phone and dialed Wu Xiao Hai's number, and the answering machine came: "Sorry, the user you called has been disabled..."
"Xie Gui Fang, since you work at Wells Restaurant, and you should know what happened in the restaurant. I hope you don't hide Wu Xiao Hai," Han Bin warned.
"I don't cover it, and I really don't know where he is?" Xie Gui Fang shrugged.
"Can you contact him?"
"His phone is switched off, and none of your police officers have been able to contact him. How can I contact him?" Xie Gui Fang snorted.
"Xiao Peng, you will continue to take his statement."
"Yes, Bin" replied Sun Xiao Peng and sitting down on the sofa and continued to take the woman's statement.
Han Bin pushed Li Hui away, and the two lowered their heads and whispered, and after talking, he returned to the sofa and looked at his phone while listening to Xie Gui Fang's testimony. However, the questions were all superficial and there were no helpful hints at all. As long as it was about the whereabouts of Wu Xiao Hai, Sun Xiao Peng only asked Xie Gui Fang three questions.
Seeing this situation, Han Bin knew there was no point in asking for more, so he called Li Hui and Sun Xiao Peng to leave.
......
After leaving Wu Xiao Hai's house, Sun Xiao Peng was a little annoyed: "This woman is very slippery, and she has no useful words."
"This Xie Gui Fang never asked the police why they were looking for Wu Xiao Hai, she should have inside information." Han Bin guessed the rest.
"Brother Bin, why didn't you take her to the police station for questioning?" Sun Xiao Peng wondered.
"While going to the police station, she said she didn't know, and we have no evidence, so we can't afford to waste time," Han Bin shook his head.
"So where are we going to find Wu Xiao Hai now?" Sun Xiao Peng asked.
"If we can't find Wu Xiao Hai, we can't find the source of the poisoned beef, it's just like a sharp sword hanging over Qingdao City."
......
Inside the house, Xie Gui Fang stood at the door, looking through the peephole, listening to the movements with her ears near the door.
After a while, she returned to the sofa and breathed a sigh of relief. She took out her phone and dialed an unknown number.
"Du du..."
After a while, the phone rang, and a male voice sounded: "Hey, Xiao Fang, what do you want?"
"Brother Hai, the police came to pick you up at home just now."
"You didn't say anything. Say it." The man asked.
"I'm not stupid, I said a few words casually, and they left without asking anything useful," Xie Gui Fang said.
"That's good," said the man known as Brother Hai.
"Brother Hai, they said they were criminal police, is the restaurant problem a big problem?" Xie Gui Fang was a little worried.
"What can happen, isn't it just a stomach ache, the police don't find anyone, and everything will be fine after a while," Brother Hai said.
"So when are you coming back?"
"I'm staying for a few days to see the limelight. If you have nothing to do, don't make phone calls, so you don't get caught by the police," Brother Hai said.
Xie Gui Fang pouted: "I miss you."
"Little Hoof, I'll meet you in a few days, my brother will take good care of you," Brother Hai said with a mischievous smile.
"Yeah," Xie Gui Fang replied, then hung up the phone.
The object of Xie Gui Fang's call is Wu Xiao Hai. She knew Wu Xiao Hai's current whereabouts, but she had no obligation to tell the police.
"Knock knock," at that moment there were more knocks on the door.
Xie Gui Fang was surprised: "Who is it?"
"Miss Xie, it's me, please open the door," Han Bin's voice sounded from outside.
"Why is he back? Did he hear I called Brother Hai?" Xie Gui Fang was a little nervous and thought: "Impossible, this is not a good ear, I called from the back of the house, how could he hear."
"Knock Knock."
"Open the door."
Xie Gui Fang took a deep breath and slowly opened the door, only to see Han Bin standing outside: "Why are you back?"
"I'm sorry, I lost my phone. Well, maybe it fell in your house," Han Bin explained.
"No way, how could your phone be in our house, and I haven't seen it," Xie Gui Fang frowned.
"He is really in your home. I called the phone earlier and heard your voice." Li Hui shook his phone, and the screen was on and he was talking.
Suddenly, Xie Gui Fang's face became very ugly: "How is it possible, if no one answers, how can you pass?"
Han Bin walked into the room, took out his cell phone from the sofa, and smiled: "Just look. Could it be you accidentally sat here and pressed the answer button?"
Seeing Han Bin's phone, Xie Gui Fang's face became very ugly, and she swore: "I believed in you, and you stink. The police are very bad!"
"Miss Xie, do you have something to tell me?" Han Bin pointed out.
"I... I don't..." Xie Gui Fang hesitated for a long time, but couldn't say anything, lowered her head, and fell silent.
"Since you don't tell me, I'm telling you," Han Bin sat down on the sofa and waved his hand to signal the other party to sit down as well:
"Let me explain the science of concealment: knowing you are hiding a criminal, or providing false evidence to judicial bodies for the purpose of covering up a crime, or helping someone to hide, destroy evidence and destroy criminal traces so that he escapes the legal penalty; if the circumstances are serious, you will be sentenced to a fixed penalty - A term of imprisonment of at least three years but not more than ten years,"
"Is it so serious?" Xie Gui Fang asked in surprise.
"Bang!"
Li Hui slapped the table and scolded: "The case has been passed from the police station to the criminal police team, do you think we are here to play?"
"I didn't make a cover, and I don't want to go to jail," Xie Gui Fang showed a panicked look, waving her hands.
"The crime of concealment ranges from serious to very serious, if the circumstances are relatively minor, the penalty is not more than three years in prison, short-term detention, or public surveillance; as long as you assist the police in the 'investigation, you can find Wu Xiao Hai's bottom line as soon as possible, and if you have done meritorious service, you can receive a lighter sentence," Han Bin persuaded her.
Xie Gui Fang clenched her fists with a tangled look on her face and fell silent again.
After waiting for a while, Han Bin grew impatient, pulled out the handcuffs behind her waist, and slapped them on the table:
"Crack!"
Xie Gui Fang shivered: "I know where he is, and I'll take you to find him..."
