Chapter 1179 - 603: First Direct Encounter!

Meanwhile, Qin Feng used the police intranet system to find a young man from the same village named Li Chuang.

According to the registration data, Li Chuang, 34 years old, is registered as an employee of the Xilala Moving Company.

After obtaining this information, Qin Feng immediately led the team to the Xilala Moving Company branch in Guangling City.

At the company’s front desk, he showed his police badge, "Hello, we are officers from the Guangling Criminal Investigation Division. We’re here to investigate a case. Do you have an employee named Li Chuang?"

Upon hearing this, the staff immediately entered Li Chuang’s ID number into the system.

Soon, she said, "We have a driver named Li Chuang."

"He registered as a member of the Xilala Moving Company five years ago."

Then, Qin Feng asked, "So, where is he now? Is he within your company?"

The staff replied, "No!"

"Our company employees are just registered. They only come back once a year for safety training, and most of the time, they work on orders externally by themselves."

Immediately, Qin Feng asked, "Then can you see his current location now?"

"No problem, we take orders online, so we can see the employees’ locations at any time."

While speaking, she brought up the big data tracking system.

"The map shows he is currently in the Songtao Garden community in the West District, loading goods an hour ago. He should be unloading now."

Hearing this, Qin Feng quickly said, "Thank you, we’re going to Songtao Garden!"

"Oh! By the way, what’s his license plate number?"

"The license plate number is Guang A33756."

minutes later, Qin Feng and two other officers drove to Songtao Garden.

As the police car just entered the community, they saw a white van parked in front of Building 1.

Qin Feng looked closely, and the license plate was indeed Guang A33756.

Immediately, Qin Feng parked the police car behind it.

In his line of sight, a middle-aged man was moving a water dispenser onto the ground.

Seeing the police car approaching, he suddenly put down the water dispenser and turned to look around.

At this moment, Qin Feng and the officers got out of the police car, flanking him from both sides.

In an instant, several people exchanged glances, and Qin Feng immediately took out his police badge, "Hello, we are from the Guangling City Public Security Bureau Criminal Investigation Team. Are you Li Chuang?"

The man nodded in surprise and put down the water dispenser.

"We want to consult with you on a matter."

Upon hearing this, the man hesitated for a moment, "Consult with me? I’m just a mover, what does it have to do with me and the police? Did I accidentally get into a traffic accident while driving?"

Qin Feng said, "It’s not about a traffic accident, it’s about an old case."

"Of course, currently, it may not necessarily have anything to do with you. We just want to understand the situation at that time."

"What matter?"

"Do you remember Zhang Yan from your village?"

Li Chuang paused, "I remember, she was a girl from our village, but she passed away many years ago."

"I know it’s been a long time, we want to understand the situation back then, is it convenient for you now?"

"Right now, I’m moving this household’s belongings upstairs, can’t leave just yet."

Qin Feng looked at his watch, "No problem, I’ll wait for you. How long approximately?"

"I’ll wait downstairs, and after you finish handling the goods, we’ll discuss the situation."

Li Chuang said, "Whatever you want to ask, just ask. I’m still busy moving goods!"

After a brief pause, Qin Feng looked around and said, "This case might be significant. We want to understand it in detail, which might take some time."

"There are quite a few people around here. You probably don’t want to be surrounded and talked about, it’s not good for your reputation."

Li Chuang turned to look around, noticing people walking in the community.

After a while, he nodded and said, "Alright, I’ll go with you, but give me about ten minutes to finish moving this household’s furniture."

After saying that, Qin Feng nodded and then returned to the police car with another officer.

As soon as he got in the car, the officer next to him asked, "Mr. Qin, this is just an ordinary lead, do we need to take him to the interrogation room for questioning?"

"I think we can just ask him a few questions in the car."

Qin Feng lit a cigarette with a lighter and said slowly, "Although Li Chuang was the one who mentioned the girl might have been killed back then, since he said that, it shows he might know some inside information or sensed something unusual."

"In that village, besides the victim’s family, Li Chuang was closest to her."

"Especially since they were in a relationship then, I think we should be cautious."

"And I think Jiang An’s intuition is correct, in this case, we cannot overlook any suspicious person."

minutes later, Li Chuang quickly finished unloading the goods from the truck and walked over.

"Alright, let’s go."

Qin Feng rolled down the car window and asked, "Do you want to park your car here and ride with us in the police car, or drive your own car and follow us?"

Li Chuang replied, "You take the police car ahead, I’ll drive my car and follow. After we talk, I’ll just drive away directly."

"Okay, thanks for your cooperation."

.....

minutes later, both vehicles arrived at the Criminal Investigation Team.

At this moment, Li Chuang was brought into the Criminal Investigation Team.

Qin Feng did not treat him like a criminal suspect and place him in an interrogation chair.

Instead, he was brought to an inquiry room next door.

An inquiry room is different from an interrogation room, used to gather basic information.
