Chapter 265 Catching the Thief
After investigation, she found out that a company calling itself Xingchen contacted her and asked her to wear a corsage and go to Dayin Security on Tuesday morning and stay as long as possible. The woman asked the other party about the purpose, and the other party frankly stated that he was a commercial spy and gave the woman a $20,000 advance payment, and another $80,000 after the job was done.

It sounds like a waste of effort. After all, you need to investigate first to find out that the woman has submitted her resignation letter and you need to contact her.

When Duanmu heard that the person wearing the camera was an ordinary employee of Dayin Group, he immediately thought of the doubts: the input and output were not proportional. If the bad guys found Dayin security employees, they didn't need to wear cameras at all, and they could directly draw the company's structure diagram. In the face of $100,000, there are always people who can't keep their original intentions. In this case, why give up the main thing for the sake of the trivial?

Duanmu said: "The cicada escapes from its shell. Exposing the useless pawns, covering up the real thief. Let's follow this line of thought and ask ourselves a question: If we take the initiative to capture this woman, or capture her after receiving a report, what changes will occur in the situation?"

Cui Jian: "If this girl works out regularly, I would really suspect that she is the real boss."

The woman handcuffed with cable ties glared at Cui Jian resentfully: Just talk, don’t make personal attacks.

Duanmu said: "That's right, we suspect her and will interrogate her. Her accomplices will call the police. After the police intervene, we will definitely not be able to restrict her and her employees' freedom anymore." Neither the Security Department nor Bodyguard Department A has the power to enforce the law.

Cui Jian asked: "So you mean the real boss is among the employees?"

Duanmu replied: "No, if the real culprit was among the employees, someone would have reported the woman long ago and let the police intervene earlier. Now all employees are staying in their departments on standby. All departments have at least three employees. Everyone knows each other well. Even with a silicone mask, it is easy to be exposed."

Duanmu said: "My conclusion is that the main person has either escaped earlier or is still hiding somewhere in the company."

Cui Jian asked: "Then how do we deal with this problem?" With the tall guy supporting him, he didn't have to use the CPU.

Duanmu said: "Please ask all employees to leave the company in units of departments. The real culprit is likely to have infiltrated the team."

Cui Jiandao: "In fact, we are not asking employees to leave the company, but asking employees to gather outside the company for roll call."

Duanmu was a little surprised: "You actually have some brains again."

Cui Jian was angry: "Go to hell."

……

Fire announcement: The vandal has been caught. The security department is going to take inventory of the losses. Please leave the company in an orderly manner according to the department you are called. Do not crowd or take the elevator. First, the logistics department. Please ask the highest on-site supervisor of the logistics department to lead people to leave through the main entrance.

Dayin Security has three businesses. The first business is bodyguard dispatch. The second business is large-scale event security. The company does not have many security guards, but has cooperative relationships with many security companies. To put it simply, when there is no business, everyone acts as a security guard. In addition to supporting the bodyguards, they are also responsible for the company's security work. When there is business, everyone acts as a team leader. Each security team leader manages an indefinite number of security guards from other companies to carry out security work for large-scale events.

The third business is the security equipment department, which was established just two months ago. Just like home customization, Dayin Security Company sends people to the site to install the home security system according to the actual situation and the employer's needs. There is also a duty department. Once an alarm is triggered, the duty personnel will handle it immediately. Customers have to pay a certain fee every year to use the security service, which covers a wide range of content and thoughtful service.

Today, Dayin Security Company has more than 180 employees, most of whom work from 9 to 5. Even with the fire broadcast command, even if the department leaves the company, the scene is still a mess, and it is easy to blend into the crowd if you really want to.

There were two rows of security guards standing at the main entrance. The employees passed through the middle. After walking a few dozen meters, the security captain directed: "The logistics department will go right. The administrative department will go left."

The crowd split up, with Cui Jian and Duanmu each following a team. After the teams were in place, the department heads began to call the roll. If there were no problems, they would be dismissed.

Departments came out one by one, and were disbanded one by one, but no extra people were found. With the last department being called and disbanded, the entire company was empty, with only the security guards and bodyguards from Department B waiting for orders outside the company, and Ye Lan and her bodyguard team watching the fun.

Duanmu put his hands on his hips and looked at the company: "Either he has already run away, or he is still hiding in the company."

Cui Jian: "You disbanded the entire company." He glanced at Ye Lan. Isn't this your company? Why does he look like a spectator?

Duanmu ordered the security guards to form groups of four to guard each staircase and shut down the elevators. He, Cui Jian, and Zhao Ai each brought two B-unit bodyguards to search the entire building.

After the security team arrived, the three of them led their own teams into the company, first cleaning the first floor, and then going up to the second floor. Cui Jian quickly found the training department under the human resources department, and the door of the training department was locked. After receiving the call, the logistics manager Xiao Liu immediately went upstairs and opened the training department.

The training department has an open office and a small classroom that can accommodate more than 20 people. Cui Jian entered with guns in both hands, followed by two bodyguards holding guns. The three carefully searched step by step, but found no one in the small classroom or office.

Cui Jian connected with Yiyi: "Technology Department, have you found the surveillance footage?" There are not many surveillance cameras in the company, and no employee wants to work under surveillance. Generally, there are only surveillance cameras in public areas such as corridors and restaurants.

Yiyi asked, "Which part do you want to see?"

Cui Jiandao: "I want to know who locked the door of the training department."

The training department uses a cheap round turn lock. To lock the door, you must first press the button inside the door and then close the door. Under normal circumstances, no one would press the button, but would choose to close the door directly. Because the only people who hold the key are the department heads or managers, except for the logistics department. The heads or managers usually throw the keys in the office. If someone habitually locks the door, they should have been taught a lesson long ago.

Yiyi said after a long while: "There is a ghost."

"what?"

Yiyi said, "In the surveillance footage, the last employee from the training department left for about ten seconds, and the door was closed. Until you entered the training room, no one was seen entering or leaving. If it wasn't a ghost, then it was the wind."

Cui Jian looked at the window facing the door and found that it was open, and the wind was strong. But when the door was open, it was stuck to the magnet, so the wind could not move the door. In other words, when someone left the training department, they pressed the button of the round lock and took the door away from the magnet.

Duanmu agreed with Cui Jian and asked, "What is the purpose?"

Cui Jiandao: "The training department was taking English classes at the time. People from multiple departments stayed in the training department. It was the only group with staff from multiple departments. Could they have mixed in and escaped?"

Duanmu replied: "Impossible, I'm watching."

Cui Jian said: "There is only one possibility, to lure us into the training department. If the door is not closed, I will leave one person at the door to guard, and the other two will go into the training department. The door is closed, I suspect there is someone in the training department, so the three of us came in. Even Director Xiao Liu, who delivered the key, followed in."

Duanmu added: "The other party took the opportunity to hide in the room we had already checked."

Cui Jiandao: "The Finance Department and the Canteen meet the requirements. Yiyi, after the people from the Training Department leave and the door is closed, will anyone in the team enter the Finance Department?"

Yiyi watched for a while and said, "The pixel is not high. It's hard to judge that more than 20 people walked through the door of the Finance Department together. Anyway, it was not seen in the video. In addition, when the people from the Training Department left the company, they also passed by the cafeteria on the second floor. The cafeteria has a front and back door. Then the team went down the stairs to the first floor."

Cui Jian pointed at bodyguard A and the door, signaling him to hide at the door of the training department and monitor the corridor. He whispered in bodyguard A's ear: "Pay special attention. The criminals may enter the Finance Department from the back door of the restaurant while we are still in the Finance Department." Bodyguard A nodded. He was a little nervous, but his eyes were firm and he was trustworthy.

Cui Jian led bodyguard B and Xiao Liu into the Finance Department. The Finance Department was relatively large, with four separate offices and two open office areas.

First they entered Area A, where Cui Jian and Bodyguard B quickly searched the open office, then opened two offices. One of the director's offices was locked, so Xiao Liu had to find the key to open it. Because there were so many keys, it took quite a while. Because the office was locked, Cui Jian and Bodyguard B entered the office as a surprise attack.

After completing the search of Area A, they bypassed the frosted glass screen and entered Area B, which was arranged to mirror Area A. Two bodyguards broke into Area B, followed by Xiao Liu. The door of the financial manager in Area B was locked, and Xiao Liu unlocked it.

Bodyguard A, who was lying in ambush at the training department's gate, shouted, "Stop."

Cui Jian and the other two immediately turned around and headed for Area A, only to see a thin man kneeling on the ground with his hands raised. He was wearing a mask, so his face couldn't be seen clearly, but his eyes told Cui Jian: You can't do anything to me.

Cui Jian was furious when he saw this. This was clearly a trick. If the other party had a pistol or other weapons, he could still shoot him dead in the name of self-defense.

As expected, when the man was handcuffed with cable ties, he explained in English: "It's all a misunderstanding. I just borrowed your company to use the toilet."

Bodyguard B ignored him, ripped off his mask, turned him over, pressed him on the desk and searched him. All the items were personal belongings, including a passport and a boarding pass.

The man is of Romanian Asian descent named Scott, 35 years old, and arrived in South Korea a day ago.

Duanmu rushed over, picked up the phone and pointed it at Scott's face, and Scott closed his eyes. Duanmu pulled out the electric shock device from bodyguard A's waist and pressed it on Scott's abdomen. Scott twitched twice, and Duanmu released the electric shock device. Scott roared angrily: "You are committing a crime, I want to call the police, I want to call the police."

Duanmu handed the unlocked Scott's phone to Yiyi. Yiyi sat down on the spot, connected Scott's phone with a tablet, used an APP to check the route and footprints, and said: "He stayed in Mingyue Hotel for one night. I will track down the surveillance of Mingyue Hotel."

Duanmu asked: "Anything else?"

Yiyi said: "There are only some photos and videos of daily life left."

Duanmu took the phone and looked at it for a while, then said, “Scott, your wife is very beautiful, and you have two sons.”

Scott, with his hands tied, sat on a chair and said viciously, "I'm going to call the police."

Duanmu said: "Don't you know that people in your line of work cannot have families? Now I ask you questions and you answer them. If I am not satisfied, these data will be uploaded to the Internet and entered into the intelligence databases of some circles. Including Nemo, the Black Group, the Bodyguard Alliance, the Wanderers, the Cemetery, etc."

Scott didn't shout this time, but looked at Duanmu with disdain.

Duanmu asked: "Are you a ghost or a northern harrier?"

Scott didn't answer. Duanmu asked twice, but Scott still didn't say anything. Duanmu nodded to Yiyi and said to Cui Jian, "Call the police." If they didn't call the police, they might end up in jail.

While waiting for the police to arrive, Yiyi got the surveillance video of Mingyue Hotel and Scott. In the video, Scott did not have direct contact with anyone. However, the lobby surveillance captured that after Scott checked in, a woman in red with big wavy hair and sunglasses stood up on the other side.

Scott was at the front desk on the left, and the lady in red was at the lounge on the right. They walked together to the center, and then to the elevator, entering the surveillance blind spot. Comparing Scott in the elevator with Scott at the front desk, you can see that there is an extra mobile phone in the left pocket of Scott in the elevator.

This discovery itself is meaningless, because even if the phone is found, it probably does not contain the information Duanmu and his team need. The focus is on the lady in red.

The pixel definition is good, but it is obvious that the lady in red is a deep disguise. It is certain that the long wavy black hair is a wig. There is something fishy about the red jumpsuit, which is a corset and shoulder pads. There is nothing much to say about the face, which is painted layer by layer, and the original skin is completely invisible, and even the outline shape is destroyed. In addition, the sunglasses cover some key parts, making it difficult to determine the identity through face recognition.

Scott is a thug, an operative, and the like. The lady in red is a contact person who gives Scott communication tools and arranges his actions. This one-on-one approach is aimed at fighting the law. Even if Scott fully cooperates, he can only say what he did, but he doesn't know who asked him to do it or why.

Assuming both the Lady in Red and Scott confessed, the planner and commander still could not be found. Maybe the Lady in Red was not as important as Scott and was just a liaison.

Duanmu and the others were very unhappy. They had been busy for two hours but it was meaningless. The law could not even convict Scott. As a security guard for a big bank, what they did in public must be legal and compliant, and they could not embarrass Scott.

In the small conference room, connected to Diudiu, Duanmu said: "It should be a ghost."

Diudiu nodded: "Bei Yao wouldn't do it so meticulously."

Duanmu said: "If it is a ghost, it will be troublesome, because they must take action against Shi Hao. Ghosts represent the personal interests of the powerful. When it comes to endangering their interests, they will tear off all disguises and use all kinds of forces to achieve their goals."

Yiyi said, "Manager Li just sent me a message. The mercenaries of the Thunder Squad, a private military contractor overseas in the United States, applied for leave yesterday morning and all flew to Hancheng together yesterday morning. There are 12 members in the team. The Thunder Squad is suspected of working for the Italian Black Hand three years ago and is under investigation. The prosecutor said that they besieged the manor of the employer's mortal enemy and killed more than 40 people in more than an hour. Later, the case was dropped due to insufficient evidence."

Ye Lan asked with some concern: "Diudiu, are you guys okay?"

Diudiu replied: "Whether it is possible or not, it has to be possible."

Ye Lan looked at Duanmu and Cui Jian and found that they had no intention of joining the project midway, so she said: "I will ask someone to make an appointment for two teams of war police. I will give you a number then. When the time comes, you can call the number if you need any. They will support you as soon as possible." Faced with mercenaries like the Thunder Squad, ordinary police officers have no way to deal with it.

Diudiu said, "Thank you, boss. Duanmu, could it be that the cemetery provided them with weapons?"

Duanmu: "Seven or eight out of ten."

Diudiu said: “We have to clean up the cemetery afterwards.”

Duanmu: "That's exactly what I want. You should be careful."

Diudiu: “I know, end the call.”

Duanmu: "Goodbye."
