At noon on August 10, 2012, the Criminal Investigation Section of the Chongqing Municipal Public Security Bureau received a very important alarm call.
The voice on the phone was rough and thick, and the words stuttered, and the police could judge through this clue that the reporter was a middle-aged man and was in a state of high mental tension at the moment.
"Don't worry, if something comes out slowly, we'll do our best to help you."
In order to encourage the other party, the police first calmed his emotions, and then gave a promise to do their best to help, hoping to ease the tension of the other party.
In the tens of seconds after this, the phone fell into a deposit, and only faintly heard the other side gasping for breath, just when the police thought it was a harassing call and were ready to give severe criticism, the man finally spoke.
"I probably pulled that robber this morning!"

As soon as these words came out, the police immediately realized that this person may be related to the gun robbery and murder case at noon today, and did not dare to delay for a moment to report to Corey's leadership.
What a serious case occurred at noon that day, so that the reporter was so nervous and immediately after explaining the situation, it attracted the attention of the Public Security Bureau? And what is the identity of the man who reported the crime? What was the origin of the robber he was talking about?
The suspect was so arrogant that he killed one person and seriously injured two people in public.
At 9:34 a.m. on August 10, in front of a bank at the intersection of Kangjuyuan Road in Fengmingshan, Shapingba District, Zhou Kehua, who had escaped here, pulled out a pistol from his arms, and the muzzle of the black hole hole was directly aimed at a man and a woman who had just walked out of the bank.
After pulling the trigger, the two gunshots of "boom" frightened people into fleeing.
The woman (Wang Hong) was hit in the head and fell directly into a pool of blood with no signs of life, and another man (Liao Deying) was hit in the neck, still with signs of life and his whole body convulsing.

After the gunshots rang out, Zhou Kehua quickly grabbed the bag on Wang Hong's shoulder and prepared to escape. At this time, the bank's security guard reacted quickly and hurriedly got up to chase the gangsters. Then, Zhou Kehua raised his hand and fired another shot, directly piercing the arm of the security guard.
It turned out that a few years ago, Wang Hong had lent 70,000 yuan to a friend, and the creditor had not repaid it until the last two days, when she was contacted and said that she wanted to pay off the debt. But Wang Hong was a weak woman, she was very worried about the creditor's deception, and even if she got the money, she was afraid of what went wrong on the road, so she called her uncle Liao Deying that morning and asked him to accompany her to get the money, so that she could take care of it.
However, the two of them knew that at the moment they got the money, they were targeted by the fierce Zhou Kehua, and the money that had just arrived was looted, Wang Hong was directly killed on the spot, and Liao Deying was seriously injured and died on August 16.
After the incident, the Chongqing Municipal Party Committee, the government, and the public security organs attached great importance to it, and Zhang Dejiang, secretary of the Municipal CPC Committee, Meng Jianzhu, minister of public security, and other leaders successively gave instructions: Take all measures to arrest the murderer in the shortest possible time!
In order to carry out reconnaissance more quickly, Zhang Xinfeng, vice minister of public security, was assigned by the organization to rush to Chongqing to personally take command; He Ting, director of the Chongqing Municipal Public Security Bureau, sent a large number of people's policemen to visit and investigate; the local armed police and the officers and men of the troops stationed in Chongqing all went into battle and brought the criminals to justice at all costs.
Just as the investigation was in progress, the Public Security Bureau happened to receive the alarm call and claimed that it might be in close contact with the criminals in the morning. This is undoubtedly an important clue, and after asking the leader, the police resolutely invited the reporter to the police station to assist in the investigation.
Soon, a middle-aged man who called himself Luo Dajun came to the Public Security Bureau, and it could be seen that the morning's experience still made him feel uneasy.
It turned out that Luo Dajun was a driver of Mo, who was soliciting customers on Fengtian Road at the time of the crime, and the distant gunshots did not attract his attention. A short while later, a thin, dark-skinned man about a meter and a half tall trotted over, carrying a heavy black plastic bag in his hand.
The distance from Fengtian Road to Xinqiao is only about five miles, so Luo Dajun asks for five yuan.
When he was on the road, Luo Dajun always felt that this person was abnormal, always looked around vigilantly, and when he answered the phone, he also urged himself to hang up the phone.
The police believe that the person in Luo Dajun's mouth is most likely Zhou Kehua, who escaped, but his speech is relatively vague, so he hopes to provide clearer physical and physical features for confirmation.
Luo Dajun pondered for a while, and finally blurted out:
After listening to this, the police's eyes lit up, this person is most likely Zhou Kehua, so they quickly called up Zhou Kehua's photo from the file for Luo Dajun to identify.
The moment he saw the photo, Luo Dajun almost slumped in his chair, he never dreamed that the passenger pulled this morning was actually a murderer!
After Luo Dajun turned over the call record of his mobile phone, the police found that the time of the phone call at that time was displayed to be 9:39 a.m., only five minutes after the shooting, that is to say, Zhou Kehua quickly fled the scene in about five minutes after the crime.
Just three hours after the shooting, Zhou Kehua extended his black hand to the railway police.
Although Zhou Kehua got off the bus in the area of Xinqiao, he definitely did not take this place as a foothold.
He knew very well that once the news of the shooting was broadcast, the driver of the motorcycle (Luo Dajun) was very likely to report the case to the public security organs, so Zhou Kehua chose to get off the bus at Xinqiao, one was to escape the scene as soon as possible, and the other was to disturb the audio-visual and make the case-handling personnel mistakenly think that they had wandered to Xinqiao to buy time for themselves to escape from Chongqing.
At present, television, newspapers, and even shopping mall broadcasts are news of Zhou Kehua's arrest, and the Ministry of Public Security has listed him as a Class A wanted man.
"Zhou Kehua, male, Han ethnicity, born on February 6, 1970. Household registration address, Ertang Village, Jingkou Town, Shapingba District, Chongqing, about 1.67 meters tall. Medium, lean figure. The skin is darker, the face is rectangular, and the eyebrows are thicker. Double eyelids, a black mole in the middle bone of the right eyebrow, and a black mole on the back of the left auricles. The upper right lip has a white birthmark, a Chongqing accent, and can drive a car. ”
In a short period of time, more than 1.8 million copies of the arrest warrant were copied, and the streets and alleys of Chongqing City were posted to the brim, and the public security organs hoped that through the clues provided by the masses, they would be able to bring this madman to justice in the shortest possible time.
At this time, Zhou Kehua had already anticipated the seriousness of the situation in his heart, he had become a street rat, and if he was not careful, he would be discovered by people, and at that time he would face legal sanctions!
He had only one thought in his mind: Chongqing could not stay any longer.
There are many ways to get out of Chongqing, and planes, buses, and even a casual ride can easily get out in a short period of time. But although these methods took a short time, the risk was too high, so he gave up all means of transportation and decided to walk out of Chongqing along the railway line.
At noon on August 10, Zhou Kehua appeared in the railway line of Gele Mountain in Shapingba District, from which he would walk more than 50 kilometers of mountain roads all the way north out of Chongqing. But what Zhou Kehua did not expect was that in this vast mountain, he even encountered uniformed police officers.
It turned out that on the day of the crime, Zhu Yanchao, a railway police officer in Shapingba District, received a report that in a tunnel in Gele Mountain, a group of lawbreakers were stealing information processors. After hearing the news, Zhu Yanchao and three colleagues rushed to the mouth of the Gele Mountain Tunnel, but unfortunately they were still a step late, and the thieves had long disappeared.
The thieves were not caught, and the four railway policemen could only extract evidence nearby, and it happened that Zhou Kehua, who was suspicious in shape, appeared in their line of sight.

"Stop, what do you do?"
On this desolate mountain, a middle-aged man on foot suddenly appeared, which in itself would arouse suspicion, and the people who came looked panicked, so Zhu Yanchao connected Zhou Kehua with the theft that had just occurred.
Seeing that it was a uniformed policeman, Zhou Kehua's already nervous nerves were immediately broken, and he decisively put his hand into his arms and pulled out a pistol.
The muzzle of the black hole hole was aimed at himself, and the four policemen quickly lay down, but after the two gunshots, Zhu Yanchao was shot in the abdomen, and blood could not stop flowing from the wound, and the whole person's consciousness gradually blurred. Colleagues left one to care for the wounded and call the leader, while the other two went on pursuit. But the cunning Zhou Kehua had long relied on the rugged terrain to escape, where could he find a human figure?
Zhu Yanchao's funeral
After this incident, the leaders of the Chongqing Municipal Public Security Organs realized with a keen sense of case-handling that Zhou Kehua, an outlaw, must have gone far and high, and the reason why he appeared in the deserted mountainous area in just three hours after the robbery was because the risk of taking the traffic artery was too high.
With this judgment, they realized that the original practice of making important cities and towns the focus of investigation was obviously wrong, and now they want to change their thinking and start setting up cards in remote mountainous areas, and they must arrest Zhou Kehua before he escapes from Chongqing.
In order to solve the manpower problem, the officers and men of the Chengdu Military Region's garrison in Chongqing also joined the ranks of arrests, relying on their excellent physical fitness and professional ability to move, they assembled on the lead mountain highway and railway trunk line, and assigned 3 to 5 heavily armed soldiers to guard every ten meters, even a fly could not escape such a tight blockade line.
During the pursuit, the police found the robber's lair, but was once again escaped by the cunning Zhou Kehua.
The day after the incident, at about 5 p.m. on August 11, the arrest team composed of the police handling the case and the local armed police made a major discovery!
In a cave at the foot of Mount Gele, the investigators found signs of human activity, and according to reasoning, these signs of activity should have been left by Zhou Kehua.
The cave where Zhou Kehua hid
There is such a discovery, which is naturally very sensational, which means that the police are one step closer to catching the murderer, and for a time the major media have rushed to report it.
When the reporters came to the scene, they found that the roadside was already full of police cars, and the armed police and special police officers were waiting closely next to a cave and began to carefully investigate and collect evidence.
The location of this cave is very hidden, a huge implementation blocks almost half of the opening, while the other half is covered by dense bushes and weeds, even if it is only a few tens of meters away, it is difficult to find without careful observation.
Although the entrance to the cave is very hidden and narrow, the interior space is very spacious, and walking in gives people a sudden and cheerful feeling. Through the illumination of the flashlight, an old green shirt, two empty cigarette boxes and cigarette butts on the ground appeared in people's sights, and after further inspection, there were several fresh excrement in the corner of the cave!
These few discoveries are enough to show that just a short time ago, there were indeed people in the cave. The DNA comparison results of excrement and cigarette butts also showed that this person was Zhou Kehua, the murderer that the police were painstakingly pursuing.
If he could have found this place earlier, he might have been able to catch him, but unfortunately, the cunning Zhou Kehua finally slipped away under the eyes of the police.
Skynet was restored without leakage, and Zhou Kehua finally paid the price for his evil deeds.
The "8.10 shooting and robbery case" was full of storms in the city, and people began to provide clues to the public security organs while panicking, hoping to solve the case as soon as possible.
In fact, as early as the "8.10 case", Zhou Kehua committed nearly 10 crimes in the period from 2004 to 2012, killing and injuring more than 10 innocent people, and the amount of crimes was as high as more than 700,000 yuan. Among them, on March 19, 2009, Zhou Kehua killed an 18-year-old sentry at the entrance of the barracks of the 17th Regiment of the Chengdu Military Region garrison in Chongqing, located in Shiqiaopu, Chongqing High-tech Zone, and seized a semi-automatic rifle.
For such a mischievous person, the police naturally investigated his family situation in great detail, in order to get more reliable information, the case-handling personnel finally came to Zhou Kehua's hometown, Ertang Village, Jingkou Town, Shapingba District, found his old mother, and learned that Zhou Kehua had a post-90s girlfriend Zhang Guiying a few months ago.
Zhang Guiying
The police realized that this was a very valuable clue, and perhaps more accurate and useful information could be obtained from Zhang Guiying's mouth.
Sure enough, when Zhang Guiying was controlled, the young man, who was only 20 years old, quickly confessed all the facts.
Zhang Guiying is impeccable in both appearance and stature, originally in a massage shop in Baixi Town, Yibin City, as the front desk, and Zhou Kehua often goes in and out of this kind of place, so the two of them wiped out the spark of love after coming and going. Although they are boyfriend and girlfriend, Zhou Kehua is 22 years older than Zhang Guiying, which should be exactly the relationship of sponsorship.
After the "8.10 case", Zhou Kehua deposited the stolen 70,000 yuan into Zhang Guiying's bank card, and for the next two days, he learned about the situation outside through her, although hiding in the mountains, he knew the movements of the public security organs very well, which is why Zhou Kehua was able to escape under the eyes of the public security organs.
On the night of August 13, Zhang Guiying, who was under control, received a call from Zhou Kehua again, and the police in charge of the guard immediately became nervous. In order not to hit the grass and snake, the police signaled Zhang Guiying to adjust her mood, answer the phone with speakerphone, and carefully make a record on the side.
Zhou Kehua said that although he grabbed 70,000 yuan on August 10, it was still not enough to support his future fugitive life, so he planned to do another big vote tomorrow, and then pick up Zhang Guiying and go away. On the phone, Zhou Kehua also stressed that this time he would do it at the door of the Postal Bank.
The phone hung up, the police did not dare to delay for a moment, with the record to find the leader, a new round of arrest activities again, this time even if Zhou Kehua has great ability, it is absolutely difficult to escape from the long-arranged Tianluodi net.
At 6:45 a.m. on August 14, a tightly wrapped man came to the door of the postal bank in Tongjiaqiao, Qinjiagang Town, looked around for a while, and then hurried away. This made the police who had been waiting for a long time tremble in their hearts: not good! Zhou Kehua most likely found an anomaly.
In order not to miss the opportunity again, Zhou Jin and Wang Xiaoyu, two plainclothes men, hurried to follow, hoping to catch the gangsters.
Zhou Kehua turned left and right to hide in the alley, and when the two trotted to keep up, he had already spread his legs and escaped, Zhou Jin and Wang Xiaoyu just wanted to continue chasing, and the other party suddenly hid behind the corner and shot.
Two bullets whistled past them, and they could even clearly feel the cold air waves! However, the two could not be afraid, and touched the gun at the waist with their hands ready to return fire.
When Zhou Kehua fired the third shot, Zhou Jin also pulled the trigger, and the two bullets hit Zhou Kehua's head and waist respectively, killing him on the spot.
Zhou Kehua eventually paid the price of his life for his crimes, and Zhou Jin and Wang Xiaoyu were also commended for their meritorious efforts in arresting and killing gangsters, and became the winners of the "May Day Labor Medal".
In the end, Chongqing City returned to its former calm, and the panicked people were also killed by the gangsters, and their hearts were greatly comforted, and everything returned to the calm of the past.
