Hiding things and finding things is a process of fighting wits and courage, people who hide are painstaking, people who are looking for them are racking their brains, and once they are successfully found, they can not only be described with a sense of accomplishment.
A piece of reliable intelligence
On the morning of February 9, 2010, the Public Security Bureau of Yuxi City, Yunnan Province, received reliable intelligence that someone had purchased a large number of drugs from abroad to be secretly transported to Wuhan, Hubei Province, through Yuxi, and in the intelligence, there was a clear description of the drug vehicles used by drug dealers.
The car is a minivan with a Guizhou license plate, and with these two significant features, the car should not be difficult to identify. But the problem is that the time is too tight, the intelligence said that the car has entered the Yuanjiang territory, and the Yuanjiang is not far from Yuxi, only an hour's drive, that is to say, the time left for the police to find the drug truck will not exceed an hour.
Without further ado, the police immediately launched an operation, dividing them into two routes, one rushing to the junction of Yuanjiang and Yuxi to set up a checkpoint to check all suspicious vehicles entering Yuxi, and the other driving on National Highway 213 to chase and block drug trucks that may have entered Yuxi.
National Highway 213 was chosen because this road is a drug trafficking route often used by drug dealers, and it is reasonable to say that this is a two-pronged approach, there are chasers after the card point, and the drug truck should be difficult to fly with wings, but the effect is not ideal after more than an hour has passed.
Disappearing minivan
The results are very frustrating and confusing, the intelligence source is accurate, the drug truck with Guizhou license plate does exist, why is it missing in Yuxi territory? Afterwards, the police analyzed that according to the time calculation, the only possibility is that the other party has crossed Yuxi in advance and driven away in the direction of Kunming.
So the police immediately sent a third road investigation team to chase along the 213 national highway to Kunming, the group of people not long after the departure of a suspicious car, and the car was parked on the side of the 213 national highway.
At that time, there was a man standing next to the hood as if repairing a car, this car was a Ford sedan, far from the minivan in the intelligence, why did it attract the attention of the investigators?
Yes, it is because this car is hung with a Guizhou license plate, and the investigator is very careful, and wrote down its license plate number on the spot. At that time, after remembering the license plate, because no other strange investigators were found, they went straight away and drove all the way to Kunming.
They searched many parking lots in Kunming and many vehicles with Guizhou license plates, but unfortunately, these cars were not minivans. As the minutes and seconds passed, the hope of finding the drug truck became more and more dim, and the situation was not optimistic, but at this moment, there was suddenly good news ahead.
Another drug trafficking case
The card point in Yuanjiang has gained some results, and the police have seized two drug-carrying elements, will these two people have anything to do with the drug trafficking case referred to in the intelligence? 13 pieces of drugs, weighing nearly 5 kilograms, were seized from the two suspects.
The situation would have been exciting enough to be put in the usual way, but the police were not happy, because it was confirmed that the two people and the drugs that the intelligence said were to be transported to Wuhan were not the same thing, and the drug trucks carrying a large number of drugs were still outside the control of the police.
The next day, on the morning of February 10, 2010, the investigators drove again, this time from Kunming, along National Highway 213 all the way north to Wuhan, looking for trucks with Guizhou license plates. It didn't take long for the reconnaissance vehicle to pass by a service area, when a sedan suddenly pulled out from the right.
Again encountered suspicious vehicles
The investigators took a closer look, and it was really coincidental that it was an old acquaintance, the same Ford sedan parked on the side of the road that they saw on the highway from Yunxi to Kunming the day before. Is it really a pure coincidence that the car was encountered twice in two days, which immediately aroused the vigilance of the investigators, and the same Guizhou license plate was hung, and the drug truck was driving on the same route?
At that time, the scouts remembered a common trick of drug dealers - the pathfinder! The car itself does not carry drugs, but drives along the same route in front of the drug truck, and as soon as there is a wind and grass, it immediately sends an alarm to the drug truck to escape the police pursuit.
Thinking of the anomaly of this Ford, it is quite likely that it is a pathfinder. Before the main lord appeared, he certainly could not act rashly, and could only secretly follow behind to observe.
The Ford also seemed to be in a hurry, accelerating shortly after leaving the service area, driving more than 20 kilometers, and only after overtaking a small white truck with a container did the Ford start to reduce its speed.
At that time, the Ford car looked like it was opening the way for the overtaken truck, and the white pickup looked quite ordinary, but on its back door, there were several large characters that made the investigators' hearts beat faster, and it was a Guizhou license plate number.
Seemingly innocent driver
Two days later, I finally saw a car that exactly matched the intelligence description, and by this time, although it was not yet possible to completely pack the ticket, the truck was a drug truck, but the inspection of the two vehicles was definitely going to be carried out. As the scouts had envisioned, the progress behind was smooth, and after reaching the toll booth, the white wagon slowed down and stopped, and the scouts rushed up.
The truck driver's reaction was somewhat surprising, he desperately resisted the investigators' search, and struggled fiercely until he was taken to the police car, and the plainclothes investigator revealed his identity to him, and the driver still had a blank expression.
At the same time as the arrest of the truck driver, two people on the other side of the Ford car were also arrested, but the same two people also felt inexplicable, they said that they were driving to Yunnan for a self-driving tour, how could the police arrest it? Of course, at this time, the investigators did not have time to explain to them, or check the truck first.
At that time, the investigators inspected it very carefully, the cab was seen, the fuel tank was unscrewed, and even went under the car to check the chassis and engine, but there was not a trace of drugs in all the places where drugs were easy to hide.
The intelligence source is quite reliable, the drug truck must have existed, as the first Guizhou license plate truck found in two days, the suspicion of this gang is too big, so although the drugs were not found on the spot, the investigators quickly escorted the three suspects and two cars back to Yuxi and interrogated them separately.
The truck driver's name is Li Handi, he still shouts injustice as always, he said that he is a driver for people, who knows what drugs, as for the two people in the Ford car, Li Handi said that he did not know at all.
At the same time, two people in the Ford car are also being interrogated, one is called Dong Gangcheng, the other is called Yang Yuanlin, both of them are also depressed, both said that they have legitimate occupations and have not done anything illegal.
As the interrogation progressed, the police also began to mutter, and they were afraid that they had really caught the wrong person, and perhaps the previous suspicions had all happened to collide. But the police were not reconciled, and they took out a secret weapon - anti-drug dogs! Its sense of smell is more than ten thousand times more sensitive than that of humans, and now the police dog has all the hopes of the police.
Disappointingly, the police dogs circled the van again and again without any detection, so that the police seemed to have no choice. According to the law, the time to control suspects cannot exceed 12 hours, and if no evidence is produced within 12 hours, the police must release them.
At that time, Dong Gangcheng and the 3 of them had been arrested for more than 11 hours, and after no discovery, the police began to prepare to release people, but before that, they still took advantage of the last bit of time to check the white truck again, in fact, when they did this, no one had any hope in their hearts, purely out of a sense of responsibility.
Anomalies on the van
As a result, the world is so strange, unintentionally planted willows, and an anomaly on the truck is still discovered by them! And it is precisely because of this anomaly that the 3 suspects can not be released.
This time the police focused the investigation on the cargo compartment of the truck, and after tapping with experience, no abnormal sound was found in the mezzanine, and the investigators finally found a leather ruler and measured the size of the inner and outer walls of the cargo compartment, and it was at this time that a very abnormal phenomenon appeared.
The cargo compartment wall next to the cab was 39 cm thick, and the investigators on the cargo compartment wall also found that there were not only traces of new paint spraying at the iron joint on the thickened cargo compartment wall, but the rivets were also more prominent than the rivets on the walls of the cargo compartment on both sides, which was obviously newly installed. There is no doubt that there is a problem with this cargo compartment wall, and there may be a sandwich inside!
The investigators took the tools and pried open the iron sheet on it, revealing the contents of the mezzanine, but everyone was dumbfounded when they looked at the spot, and there was a thick layer of foam inside. This was really disheartening, and I thought there were drugs in the mezzanine, so I didn't find anything for half a day, and I broke the carriage.
If this had been changed, it would have been stopped, but one of the scouts was still quite persistent, and he felt that they had been pried open anyway, so he simply took out these bubbles to see what was behind them. As soon as he took it away, the contents immediately made him shout.
Everybody gets the booty
Sure enough, after the mezzanine was all opened, a pile of plastic bags was revealed, and the amount of drugs in it was very large, and after all of them were taken out, the house of more than 30 square meters was paved with a full floor, and the weighing was even more exaggerated, with a total of 224 kilograms. The next most important thing is to find out how big a drug trafficking gang is hidden behind this batch of drugs.
There is no doubt that Dong Gangcheng, who was arrested with the truck, was the most suspicious of the three of them, but the three of them still refused to admit it. Of course, the police do not rule out that some people hid drugs in the mezzanine of the truck, the driver Li Handi did not know, and Dong Gangcheng, who drove the Ford car, was also innocently involved, but it is more likely that these three people are acting, and people are still unrepentant.
The police sent a working group to Wuhan at that time to carefully investigate the social relations of the three suspects, and exposed a lie of Li Handi on the spot. During the previous interrogation, Li Handi insisted that he did not know Dong Gangcheng and the two, but the investigation showed that Li Handi was the younger brother of Dong Gangcheng's ex-wife, and the two were still friends for many years.
On the wall of the carriage where the drugs were hidden, the police extracted the fingerprints left by Dong Gangcheng, and the situation was very clear, and the drugs in the mezzanine were hidden by Dong Gangcheng himself!
Smugglers with too much appetite
In the face of ironclad evidence, Dong Gangcheng finally bowed his head and confessed his guilt, personally admitting the fact that he conspired with foreign drug dealers to buy and smuggle drugs. It turned out that as early as 1998, Dong Gangcheng was sentenced to 15 years in prison for smuggling, and after his early release, he was introduced to a foreign drug dealer and soon began to do drug trafficking for people.
Because Dong Gangcheng was generous and good at winning people's hearts, classmate Yang Yuanlin and his brother-in-law Li Handi and others soon became his hardcore horse boys, and with these people as accomplices, his appetite for drug trafficking was also getting bigger and bigger.
According to the regulations, transporting 50 grams of methamphetamine can be sentenced to death, 200 kilograms is enough to sentence thousands of times to death, Dong Gangcheng is fully aware of the risks here, in order to transport poison he racked his brains. He first sent Yang Yuanlin to buy this small truck with a Guizhou license plate, sent it to the repair shop to convert the inner wall of the cargo compartment into a sandwich, and then bought a Ford sedan to be used as a pathfinder.
After the two cars were ready, Dong Gangcheng remitted the drug funds to drug dealers abroad and called Yang Yuanlin to officially start the 200-kilogram drug trafficking operation.
According to Dong Gangcheng's arrangement, Yang Yuanlin was responsible for driving the hidden mezzanine to Lancang County, Yunnan Province, to hand over to the drug dealers outside the country, first driving abroad to load the drugs, and after the drugs entered, Dong Gangcheng's brother-in-law Li Handi was out of the horse and rushed to Yuxi to wait for the drug truck.
On February 6, 2010, 224 kilograms of methamphetamine were loaded into the mezzanine of a pre-modified truck, and the drug dealers from abroad drove into the territory, handed over the truck to Li Handi in Yuxi, and then driven by Li Handi to Wuhan, and Dong Gangcheng and Yang Yuanlin drove a Ford sedan together to explore the way in front.
Originally, according to Dong Gangcheng's plan, he would transport a larger amount of drugs several times after the success of this drug transport, and then choose the golden basin to wash his hands, this abacus can not be described as exquisite, but even the cunning fox can not fight a good hunter, it is this time that makes him think that the drug trafficking that is ten to nine finally let him fall into the legal net.
As the main criminal, due to the huge amount of drug trafficking, Dong Gangcheng will undoubtedly be punished the most severely, perhaps aware of his own fate, Dong Gangcheng is particularly moralistic. For Li Handi and Yang Yuanlin, who were involved in drug trafficking this time, Dong Gangcheng made a big package and tried his best to excuse these two people, saying that all of them were planned by himself.
The truth behind righteousness
However, the police do not think so, because from the number of drug trafficking in the case, the drug storage skills and the design of the entire drug trafficking route, this is not something that Dong Gangcheng can complete alone, but can be planned and implemented by a gang. Behind Dong Gangcheng's seemingly righteous act of carrying sin alone, there is obviously some hidden purpose.
In the next investigation, the police quickly arrested several accomplices that Dong Gangcheng tried to conceal, and one of these people had a very special identity, he was Dong Gangcheng's son Dong Yong, and it turned out that Dong Gangcheng had done everything before to protect his son!
Dong Yong's suspected crime is money laundering, it is a pity to say that Dong Yong originally would not have been involved in this case, because when he was 5 years old, his father divorced, abandoned his family and never returned, and when the father and son met again, dong Yong was 18 years old, and the place where they met was even more special, in prison.
At that time, Dong Yong helped people fight in groups and was sentenced, very coincidentally, and his father Dong Gangcheng, who committed smuggling crimes, was locked up in the same prison, perhaps due to guilt, the father in the prison was particularly concerned about his son, and later Dong Yong slowly forgave his father.
After being released from prison, Dong Yong found a job as a security guard, and Dong Gangcheng, who had been released from prison at that time, would give his son a thousand yuan of living expenses every month. Then, Dong Gangcheng asked his son to open a few bank cards, and Dong Yong did so out of trust in his father.
Dong Yong did not expect that it was because these few bank cards in his name also involved him in this drug case, because Dong Gangcheng used these credit cards to buy and sell drugs without Dong Yong's knowledge, and the police also relied on money laundering charges when they arrested Dong Yong.
The person who dragged his son into the abyss of drug trafficking was him, and the person who destroyed his son's life was also him, from the day he embarked on the road of drug trafficking, Dong Gangcheng had brought three major evil consequences, endangering society, destroying himself, and harming his family.
