Detective from the future

Chapter 143 Arrest
Daxi Village.

On the way here, Zeng Ping contacted the local police station, and the police from the police station contacted the village chief to assist the members of the second group to arrest him.

Tian Li rushed to Daxi Village with a search warrant and a summons warrant, and Zeng Ping ordered the arrest.

Under the leadership of the village chief, Han Bin and others rushed to Meng Jingdong's house.

"Mr. Chen, what's the situation with Meng Jingdong's family, and how is he?" Zeng Ping asked.

"I don't know Meng Jingdong very well, but he and his father are of the same generation. Their family's conditions are not very good. Lao Chen is quite honest, and I haven't heard of any messy things about Meng Jingdong."

Village head Chen is over 50 years old, with a curly hair combed back, showing a curious look: "Captain Zeng, what did Meng Jingdong do?"

"We have a rule that it is not convenient to disclose the details of the case. I hope you understand."

"Understood, I understand this, but..." Village Chief Chen hesitated to speak.

"Cun Zhang, if you have anything to say, don't worry too much." Zeng Ping encouraged.

"Meng Jingdong has a situation, I don't know if you understand it?"

"what's the situation?"

"His legs and feet are not very good." Village Chief Chen said.

"Can you drive even if you have bad legs?" Tian Li asked back.

"He has a disability in his left leg, but his right leg is fine. He walks with a limp, but driving doesn't affect him much," said Village Chief Chen.

Meng Jingdong's house is located in the south of the village. The house looks very old. There are only two north rooms and one south room. There is an iron gate on the east side, and a van can be seen parked inside.

"Boom, boom, boom..." Village Chief Chen knocked hard on the door.

"Who is it?"

"I'm Chen Weijun."

An old lady in her sixties came out, her hair was already a little gray, her body was a bit bent, and she was very thin, showing a flattering look:

"Mr. Chen, why are you here?"

"Is your son at home?" Chen Weijun asked.

"Jingdong is at home, what can you do with him?" the old lady asked.

"These are comrades from the Public Security Bureau. I'm going to ask your family Jingdong to find out about the situation." Chen Weijun said.

The old lady showed surprise: "Look for my Jingdong, what's the situation? What's the matter?"

"Old lady, you don't have to worry, just ask something." Zeng Ping comforted.

"This..." The old lady had never seen anything in the world, and she panicked when she heard that the police were looking for her son.

"Mother, who's here." At this moment, a man's voice sounded from inside.

Then, a man came out limping, followed by a four or five-year-old girl with a pigtail, thin and dark.

"Are you Meng Jingdong?" Zeng Ping asked.

"I am, who are you here to look for me?" Meng Jingdong was a little surprised.

"We belong to the criminal police team." Zeng Ping showed his police officer card.

"Comrade policeman, what can you do for me?" Meng Jingdong seemed a little nervous.

"We suspect that you have been involved in a theft case and would like to ask you to return to the police station to assist in the investigation."

"Theft! How could I..."

Meng Jingdong raised his eyebrows, widened his eyes, and opened his mouth slightly.

This is a typical surprised expression.

Han Bin has been observing the other party, and Meng Jingdong's expression is surprise rather than fear, which shows that the other party did not know beforehand and does not think that he has participated in the theft.

Of course, this does not mean that he was not involved in the case at all. It is also possible that he borrowed the van and someone drove his van to commit crimes without his knowledge.

The above are all speculations by Han Bin, and the evidence shall prevail.

"This is a search warrant. We want to search your home. I hope you can cooperate." Zeng Ping waved his hand and led people into Meng Jingdong's house.

The courtyard of Meng Jingdong's house was dilapidated, with only a one-meter-wide brick road, surrounded by muddy fields with some vegetables planted, and some messy old objects piled up against the walls.

"Comrade policeman, there must be a misunderstanding here. Look at my legs, how could it be possible to steal something." Meng Jingdong said.

"We came to your house to investigate the case and return you to your innocence," Zeng Ping said.

"But this case really has nothing to do with me." Meng Jingdong was a little anxious.

"My father is a good man." The little girl beside him shouted.

"Little sister, uncle also believes that your father is a good man, but uncle is a policeman and has his own responsibilities. Please trust uncle, and he will definitely investigate the matter." Zeng Ping knelt down and patted the little girl's head.

The little girl shrank back, as if a little afraid.

Han Bin has been wandering around beside the van, carefully observing back and forth: "Meng Jingdong, have you ever borrowed this van?"

"No." Meng Jingdong said firmly.

"Think about it."

"Not really."

Meng Jingdong shook his head: "I'm not afraid of your jokes. This is the only valuable thing in my house. I usually treat it like a treasure. I'm not willing to borrow it."

After a while, after searching, Li Hui, Tian Li, Zhao Ming, and Sun Xiaopeng came over to report to Zeng Ping one after another, but none of the crime tools and battery packs were found.

"Meng Jingdong, come with us." Zeng Ping showed his summons card.

"Captain Zeng, I am really innocent."

"Then you should cooperate with us, so that you can be cleared." Zeng Ping persuaded.

"Comrade policeman, you can't take my son away. My husband is sick and bedridden, and I can't do much work. My daughter-in-law is gone too. The whole family depends on him." Wiping away tears, the old lady begged.

"Meng Jingdong, we don't want to make it too ugly. I hope you will cooperate and come with us." Zeng Ping said.

Meng Jingdong glanced at his mother, then at his daughter, and said helplessly, "I'll go with you."

"Father, I don't want you to go, I don't want..." the little girl cried while hugging Meng Jingdong's leg.

"Qiqi is good, dad is fine, he will be back soon, you listen to grandma at home." Meng Jingdong coaxed with red eyes.

"Let's go." Zeng Ping made a gesture of invitation, but did not handcuff Meng Jingdong.

Han Bin and the others took Meng Jingdong out of the gate, and heard a burst of crying from the yard: "The police uncle took Dad away, the police uncle is a bad guy, woo woo..."

When everyone heard this, they all felt a little uncomfortable.

The little girl was dark and thin, not cute, but even more pitiful.

Along the way, the car seemed a little silent.

After a long time, Li Hui sighed: "Hey... this family is really pitiful."

"I hope Meng Jingdong is not involved in the theft, otherwise..." Tian Li was momentarily at a loss for words, thinking of the dark and thin girl.

"This Lu B3Q15V van appeared near the stolen base station three times. How could he have nothing to do with the case?" Li Hui was in a complicated mood.

Zeng Ping looked solemn, and after pondering for a long time, he ordered:
"Tian Li, you'll be back at the sub-bureau in a while. Take Zhao Ming and Sun Xiaopeng to continue to investigate and monitor to see if this car appears near other stolen base stations."

"Han Bin, Li Hui, you are in charge of interrogating Meng Jingdong. Don't make too subjective judgments because of external factors, which will affect the trial of the case."

"Yes." The three agreed.

Zeng Ping warned again: "Remember, everything speaks with evidence."
