Chapter Thirty-Two: Pounce on Empty Air

  Turning back, he took out pen and paper to note down the license plate number: "Thank you, Master." He picked up the phone: "Officer Zhang, the license plate is XXX, it should be a vehicle of the scammer group." Fighting crime cannot rely on individual strength.

  "I'll get the car to come over." Zhang Nuon said: "I'm at the hotel, she left five minutes ago. There's no information about her on the front desk computer, and all the surveillance footage has been erased. Yu Ming, you always manage to catch such big fish every time."

  "Is it good luck or bad luck?" Yu Ming smiled and said: "I'll be there right away."

  Juzi Ke Laner left, but she didn't go far. She called Banana: "Banana, the police are here, it's a trap. Give up the chase and leave quickly."

  Upon arrival at the hotel, police cars were already parked outside. Although Zhang Nuon wasn't sure if the other party was a scammer or not, this escape was too clean, and there was no evidence left behind. What surprised Zhang Nuon the most was that not a single fingerprint or hair could be found in the suspect's room. This further confirmed the identity of the group. However, the case couldn't be established because there was no victim, no evidence, and Yu Ming didn't want to say too much. It could only be temporarily recorded on file.

  Yu Ming didn't say much for his own reasons, his goal was to find someone. Not for the police to crack the case. If it's because of that bit of righteous heart that led the couple to get involved, then it would be a moral mistake. After all, their source of housing funds came from usury. Things that don't conflict with one's profession, can save then save.

  Zhang Nuonan was very dissatisfied with Ming's answer. But Ming was good at making up stories and came up with a convincing lie. Ming said he met a woman who looked like the one who had cheated his classmates in college. He knew it was her because they met near this hotel. After returning to the company, the more he thought about it, the more it didn't feel right, so he decided to come to the hotel to take a look.

  But it's clear that I'm also quite depressed, although there are still over 10 days left, but this kind of high-end goods, once they run away, basically they're gone. I don't have a second way to get my hands on them either. There's still a big gap between me and the real scammers, especially these gang-like scam groups.

  Yu Ming returned to the company to find Li Fu, but Li Fu was not there. Li Fu is a computer expert, and if they were to partner up, Yu Ming thought that this time Ke Lan would not be able to escape. Yu Ming remembered his uncle's words: as a lone swindler, one must ensure a single strike kills when making a move. There is only one chance. He was too reckless, he needed to reflect, learn and improve.

  The upgrade is complete, and I will start investigating the gang's modus operandi from tomorrow. There are at least two people involved, one of whom is a woman who goes by the alias Shen Diu Diu, who may be Ke Lan Er. One is a computer hacker. And Ke Lan Er has authentic fake certificates, indicating that they have a large black logistics team. This is actually what I lack the most. I can only buy illegal drugs and have to complete them through Niu Qiu's sneaky means.

  Yu Ming sent an email to his uncle, telling him about his difficulties in this regard. Just before the end of work hours, his uncle replied to the email, saying that times are changing and underground networks are also changing. Yu Ming must go out and experience this world for himself. Additionally, his uncle told Yu Ming that high-end counterfeit documents may exist, but these belong to extremely skilled counterfeiters, not something Yu Ming could access at his current level. He advised Yu Ming to start with fake certificates from street vendors. Yu Ming told his uncle that he had already obtained a vocational qualification certificate for fake certificates during his four years in university.

  At six o'clock, Yu Ming, who was preparing to get off work, received a call from Li Fu. Yu Ming waited in the office, while Du Qingqing left first. She was going to Haixia's home. It was said that Haina had been grounded again.

  Li returned to the company at 6:30 and looked around. Yu Ming smiled: "I found that Doctor handsome's movements are particularly lewd when he does bad things."

  Li Fu was surprised and asked: "How did you know it's a bad thing?"

  "Because your movements are very obscene."

  Li Fuhaha smiled and sat down, still looking around: "Yu Ming, if I want to impersonate someone, how do I do it? The background is like this, A and B are old friends who haven't seen each other in seven years. This person wants to impersonate A's son, meet B, gain B's trust, and be able to come and go from B's home frequently."

  "Why ask me?"

  "I think you're very good at lying."

  Yu Ming frowned: "I don't think you're complimenting me."

  "Actually, we all often tell lies every day..."

  "You help me and I'll help you." Yu Ming saw that Li Fu was unable to continue and didn't ask awkwardly: "Where's A?"

  "He's dead."

  "What about A's son?"

  "He's also dead." Li Fu added: "They died together in a car accident."

  "How old is B?"

  Forty-seven years old.

  "At this age... there are relatively big changes in the habits of men at 40 and 47. Firstly, it's because of physical reasons, secondly, it's because of a relatively large change in thinking. If you want to pretend, you must know what B likes at 40 and what B dislikes at 47. For example, B liked drinking tea at 40 but disliked drinking tea at 47. So when visiting, you can bring tea leaves as a gift."

  Li nodded: "It's an implicit statement that he knows A is 40 years old. What if B asks about A?"

  "So you need a lying plan book, and you help A fabricate a seven-year history of no connection between them. In this history, A has an objective reason for not being able to contact B. For example, being captured. For example, witnessing a murder and getting involved in a witness protection program. For example, losing memory, etc."

  "The witness protection program is good." Li Fu looked at Yu Ming.

  "You mean I help you fabricate a complete lie?"

  Li Fu nodded: "En en, it's like that."

  "Why don't you tell me the whole background and I'll make it even more perfect."

  Li Fu shook his head: "This won't work, sorry."

  "Alright, at most two days, I'll help you get it done. But you have to observe the likes and dislikes characteristics yourself."

  "No problem." Li Fu said gratefully: "Thank you."

  "You're welcome."

  "I know you saw that I had some issues, but you didn't expose me and didn't ask me any further questions. I'm grateful for that." Li Fu said: "But please believe me, I have no ill intentions towards anyone in the company."

  Do you believe it? Yu Ming wouldn't easily trust people, even if Li Fu was being so frank he felt there must be a necessary reason. But Yu Ming didn't ask or say anything. Yu Ming said: "I don't quite understand what you're saying. But this matter will be taken care of by me."

  Today, Yu Ming was very busy. He invited the taxi driver to dinner under the guise of gratitude. The driver thought Yu Ming was a police officer and talked freely at the dinner table about various car chases and counter-surveillance tactics. These were not things you'd find in textbooks, but rather the result of the driver's thirty-odd years of driving experience.

  Around 9 o'clock, I went home and sent an email to a classmate. Although the school is not good, there are also some advantages. In top universities, everyone plays tennis, karate, international chess and other high-end activities. But students in bad schools are more practical. Among my classmates, there are those who specialize in buying hamburgers and selling them door-to-door in dormitories. Some introduce jobs, and there is even a group of students who think they are good at math and set up a securities investment company, but the result is that they lost all their underwear. China's stock market, whoever plays it knows.
