Chapter 1338 Squatting at the mouth of the Yangtze River (3)

In order to crack down on criminals who destroy navigation beacons, the Maritime Police and the Changhang Navigation Police have successively organized forces to ambush dozens of times in the waters of the Yangtze Estuary over the past three years.

Each time they failed, and the light buoys were frequently destroyed, the comrades held their breath. Now that they finally found the target, you can imagine how excited they were.

The third group was led by Xie Youdong, captain of the Public Security Detachment of the Maritime Public Security Bureau. According to the previously formulated plan and the information provided by the traffic control center, he directed the coast patrol boat with lights turned off to quietly approach the designated waters, and stood on the bow of the boat to pass through in the rain.

Using a telescope with an infrared night vision function, I could vaguely see a small ship with only a weak red light.

"Han Bureau Han Bureau, I am Xie Youdong, we have found the target!"

"Report location!"

"In the waters of the No. 6 light buoy, there is a small boat about 12 meters long, sailing from south to north towards the No. 7 light buoy."

"How far are you from your target?"

"About 4 kilometers."

"Has the target spotted you?"

"should not."

"Get close quietly and don't alert the enemy before reinforcements arrive."

"clear."

The Yangtze River Estuary is so wide, and the containment on the water is different from that on the shore. Moreover, in the dark night, if you act rashly without waiting for the law enforcement boats of each ambush group to surround you, it is very likely that the target will escape.

After Han Yu issued the order, he immediately adjusted the frequency to contact the traffic control center and asked the traffic control center to help formulate a containment plan. Because the traffic control center has radar and a VTS system, it knows the situation in the water area where the crime occurred better than the police officers on the front line. At the same time, he ordered the captain to adjust

Course, and rush to the target water area as quickly as possible.

Xie Youdong was worried about alerting the people on the suspect ship, so he asked the captain of the coast guard boat to adjust the course and go around to the leeward of the suspect ship.

After chasing against the wind for about 10 minutes, you can clearly see with the naked eye that the No. 7 buoy light went out!

The water area in this area is the main channel for large ships to enter and leave the Yangtze River. In normal times, Xie Youdong would be very anxious if the light buoy was damaged, and would report it to the traffic control center as soon as possible, and the traffic control center would also contact the navigation mark authority to repair it in time.

Ensure safe navigation of ships.

However, today is no ordinary day.

Xie Youdong was so excited that he held up the intercom and shouted: "Han Bureau, the No. 7 buoy light stopped flashing! Now we can confirm that the boat in front of us is a pirate ship!"

If the No. 6 light buoy does not flash, it may be a malfunction.

The No. 6 light buoy just went out, and the No. 7 light buoy stopped flashing immediately. What does this mean?

Han Yu was equally excited. He looked at the radar on the bridge and confirmed that although the encirclement was not very tight, each group had basically arrived at the designated water area. He weighed the order and said: "Every group, pay attention, every group, I am Han Yu."

, I order you to take action immediately and search and contain suspicious ships in the waters of No. 7 light buoy as quickly as possible!"

"yes!"

"Be safe when moving."

"clear."

Xie Youdong put down the walkie-talkie and signaled the captain to pursue as quickly as possible.

As soon as the captain asked Lao Gui to increase the power, Xiao Sun, the policeman from the security detachment in charge of the observation, put down his binoculars and said with a grimace: "Xie Zhi, the target is gone!"

"Gone?"

"In the blink of an eye, you can no longer see it."

"What happened? How could you let things slip at the critical moment?"

Xie Youdong was so anxious that he immediately took the telescope and searched the river. However, the more he looked, the more anxious he became. The boat that was vaguely visible through the telescope just now was really gone.

After receiving the report, Han Yu was silent for a moment and pretended to be relaxed and said: "Don't worry, continue searching, they will definitely not be able to escape!"

"yes."

At this time, the call from Wusong Police Station instructor Shen Yizhe, who was in charge of the second team, came over the intercom: "Han Bureau, Han Bureau, this is Shen Yizhe, we have searched the waters near the No. 8 light buoy and found a 12-meter-long The small boat weighing 3 meters is moored next to the No. 8 light buoy, and its characteristics are consistent with what Xie Zhi has seen before! Its characteristics are consistent with what Xie Zhi has seen before!"

"Lean in and take action!"

"yes!"

As soon as Shen Yizhe finished speaking, Lao Liang, a policeman from the second group who was looking out at the bow of the boat, shouted anxiously: "Master Shen, the people on the boat discovered us, and they threw two heavy-looking things into the river! "

"It must be the battery!"

The fighter plane was fleeting, and Shen Yizhe did not dare to waste a moment. He turned around and ordered: "Captain Liu, turn on the lights, sound the siren, and increase the power."

"OK."

"Jiao Shen, they started the machine quickly and turned around to head towards Changxing Island!" Lao Liang shouted, holding a telescope and staring at the suspected ship.

"Chase!" Shen Yizhe put down the walkie-talkie, opened the door of the driver's cab, walked to the bow of the ship holding on to the railing, and prepared to join the gang with his comrades.

After receiving the report from the second team, Han Yu immediately adjusted his plan and ordered several groups of police officers involved in the operation to quickly launch an outflank.

At 22:27, the second group of coast guard boats successfully caught up with the suspect ship.

Considering that Lao Liang was old, Shen Yizhe asked Lao Liang to go to the bridge to shout. The people on the boat saw law enforcement boats at the front, rear and left. The nearest one was only six or seven meters away from them. Police lights could be vaguely seen from far away. When we couldn't run away, we had no choice but to stop the fire and stop the ship according to Lao Liang's order.

The moment the coast patrol boat docked at the boat, Shen Yizhe held his pistol tightly and personally led the three police officers to jump onto the boat.

"Don't move, squat down for me."

"Hold your head with your hands!"

"What about you, did you hear me?"

"Comrade Public Security, what are you doing?" A man in his thirties asked anxiously, holding his head in his hands.

"You have the nerve to ask us what we are doing, but I want to ask you what you did just now!" Shen Yizhe waited for the crew of the coast patrol boat to come over and take over the cab, then grabbed the man in his thirties and stared closely at him. He asked through gritted teeth.

??????55.??????

"We didn't do anything."

"You haven't done anything yet, yet you dare to talk harshly to me. Tell me honestly, what did you throw into the river just now?"

"I didn't throw anything away."

"Didn't you throw it away?" The more Shen Yizhe thought about it, the more angry he became. He couldn't help but slap him and scolded him: "Not only did we see it clearly just now, we also captured it with a camera, and we have notified the relevant departments to go to No. 8 Salvage in lighted buoy waters. The irrefutable evidence is solid. You still dare me to quibble about what we do?"

Captured with a camera...

The man in his thirties felt unsure when he saw that the last public security officer who boarded the boat was actually holding a small video camera and did not dare to make excuses.

There were three people on board, and they were all escorted to the patrol boat for separate interrogation!

By the time Han Yu arrived, the crew member with the worst psychological quality had already confessed and confessed to the crime of stealing the beacon light battery. He also admitted that this was not the first time he had committed a crime tonight. He had participated in the theft at least three times before.

At 3:45 in the morning, the participating boats and personnel safely returned to the Wusong Marine Department Pier.

Compared with the homicide, arson, poisoning and other cases investigated by the local police, the case caught tonight is not really a major case, but it is of great significance to the Hong Kong and Maritime Police. Because in the past three years, light buoys in the waters of the Yangtze River Estuary have been frequently damaged.

Navigation light batteries are frequently stolen, and the Maritime Police and the Changhang Navigation Police have tried their best but failed to crack the case.

Political Commissar Bi, who was in charge of the bureau, rushed over overnight.

He Bin, director of Changhang's Donghai Branch, also hurried over.

Even Deputy Director Liu of the Maritime Safety Administration and Director Yang of the Navigation Beacons Department came in person.

Han Yu asked the old leader and the current leader to go to the Marine Department conference room to rest first. He personally interrogated the case with the policemen who handled the case until dawn, then knocked on the door of the conference room and reported the situation to Director Liu and the old leader.

"Xianyu, have all three suspects confessed?"

"Explained."

Han Yu came in without a transcript, but he took notes during the interrogation. He put down his notebook and yawned and said: "The principal criminal's surname is Tang, his name is Tang Yide. He is thirty-three years old. He is from Dongqi. He has a junior high school education. He has a crew certificate. He used to work on a fishing boat.

I worked on a fishing boat, but later I found it hard to work on a fishing boat, so I switched to a river cargo ship.

According to his account, an inland river cargo ship he had been on before crashed a light buoy while sailing in the Yangtze Estuary. Instead of reporting it to the traffic control department, the owner of the ship removed the battery from the light buoy and took it away and sold it. Since then,

, he focused on the batteries of navigation lights, and from February last year to tonight when he was arrested, he committed 6 crimes and stole 43 batteries of navigation lights."

A small gang can cause so much damage!

The more Bureau Liu thought about it, the angrier he became. He rubbed his eyes and asked, "Do you know the name and number of the ship he worked on before?"

"I know, he confessed." Han Yu could understand Director Liu's mood and continued to report: "Before, we were helpless, mainly because we failed to open a breakthrough. Now that the breakthrough is open, we will dig deeper and investigate whether it is crashing the light buoy.

Yes, or those who steal light buoys, every one of them will be severely investigated and punished. We will also severely crack down on those suspects who dare to collect stolen goods and sell them!"

"We need to set up a task force, Xianyu. I know you have handled really big cases before, but this series of cases of damaging navigation aids is a big case for our maritime affairs. You have to personally serve as the task force leader and must deal with it as soon as possible.

This series of cases of damaging navigation aids have been brought to light.”

"Don't worry, Director Liu, I will personally organize the investigation."

"What bureau, where is your Changhang Public Security Bureau?"

"In joint investigation, I will recruit elite soldiers and generals to join the task force. I can also serve as the deputy leader of the task force."

"thank you."
