After I Sat At The Wrong Table For My Blind Date, The Crazy Female Lead Kidnapped Me - Chapter 57
Chapter 57: A Suitcase Full of Cash
Two cars sped down the road, one behind the other, with a traffic police motorcycle leading the way.
Inside the car, Xiao Yu floored the accelerator, his mind racing through the case details.
The major body smuggling case began six years ago.
It started when someone approached the crematorium manager, Wang Fugui.
This person had been introduced by one of Wang Fugui’s friends.
For the first few meetings, they just ate and drank together.
Once they became familiar, the person proposed a deal and asked Wang Fugui if he was interested.
When Wang Fugui heard it involved bodies, he was shocked.
Initially, he refused, but the offer was too tempting!
He was given fifty thousand yuan upfront, just to make friends?
Fifty thousand as a friendship token would raise anyone’s suspicions.
The person explained that the fifty thousand was just a greeting gift.
In the future, each body would bring in one hundred thousand yuan.
Faced with such a temptation, Wang Fugui was swayed.
Money moves people!
At first, Wang Fugui, along with a few employees, only dared to steal one or two bodies.
Gradually, it became five bodies a day, then ten.
At their craziest, they swapped all twenty-four bodies meant for cremation each day!
Worried about getting caught, he used his position to bribe most of the employees.
He forced the involved employees to sign affidavits and recorded videos as leverage.
Then, he modified the cremation furnaces, dug underground passages, and built a garage…
In six years, even Wang Fugui himself had lost count of how many bodies they had stolen.
As for how the bodies were handled?
Each time, the other party would send a refrigerated truck. Money was exchanged for bodies, with minimal contact.
Over six years, they became familiar with each other, and the other party hinted at smuggling.
Wang Fugui wasn’t sure how much a body sold for abroad.
Two suspects came into the police’s view.
Wang Hu, 37, from the local city… refrigerated truck driver.
Ge Jiyang, 36, alias, real identity unknown, no matches found in the database…
Wang Hu was the buyer who first contacted Wang Fugui through a friend.
The person in charge was Ge Jiyang, who also handled the payments each time.
National Security’s targets for capture were Ge Jiyang and Wang Hu.
When Xiao Yu and others came to investigate yesterday, Wang Fugui called Ge Jiyang and Wang Hu to warn them.
The aim was for them to come and take away the three bodies, leaving no evidence.
What could the police do if no evidence was found?
Without proof, there’s nothing to say!
However, Ge Jiyang and Wang Hu didn’t show up and fled as soon as they got the message.
Realizing things were bad, they sold out Wang Fugui and ran!
This increased the difficulty for the police and National Security to capture them.
Luckily, a tip-off suggested Wang Hu was seen at the docks.
Bincheng is a coastal city, a popular tourist destination.
It’s also a port for cold chain import and export trade, with many harbors…
When Xiao Yu and the team arrived at a certain port, an hour had already passed.
Logically, if they intended to escape, they would have fled long ago?
No.
The suspects wanted to leave the country via a deep-sea fishing boat.
But with National Security’s strict orders, all vessels were prohibited from leaving the port.
Only after a thorough investigation and inspection would they be allowed to depart…
When the team arrived at the port, countless small and large ships and freighters were docked.
They boarded a deep-sea fishing vessel.
Xiao Yu and Wang Dong stood on the deck, watching four National Security officers search the boat.
The suspects had already fled!
Criminals are smart too.
Realizing the port was under lockdown, they sensed something was wrong and wouldn’t wait to get caught.
“Boss, we found something!”
A National Security officer brought over a very heavy suitcase to Xiao Yu and Wang Dong.
The suitcase belonged to suspect Wang Hu, left behind during the escape.
When opened, everyone gasped.
A suitcase full of cash!
In two lifetimes, it was Xiao Yu’s first time seeing so much cash.
How much can a 24-inch suitcase hold?
Believe it or not, 5 to 6 million!
Leaving behind so much money?
Xiao Yu frowned.
Was it too heavy to escape with?
No.
A normal person would carry such money even if it killed them, right?
How bold must you be to leave behind 5 to 6 million just like that?
Even with assets worth tens of millions or billions, few would do that.
If you had that much, wouldn’t you have secret accounts?
Carrying that much cash, really?
Xiao Yu crouched down.
King Butterfly’s Nose, activate!
A person’s body scent is unique and impossible to disguise.
It can also be used to determine the time of departure based on the lingering scent.
Though humans typically lack this ability.
But with Xiao Yu’s enhanced senses, it was different.
Wang Hu’s lingering scent was strong, indicating he hadn’t left long ago?
Realizing this, Xiao Yu’s eyes lit up as he scanned the port.
Falcon’s Eye, activate!
There was only one entrance and exit to the entire port; no vehicles left when they arrived.
If Wang Hu wanted to escape, he could only do so by sea.
Or…
Xiao Yu looked at the ships and smirked.
Can you really escape?
