Chapter 1229 - 1157: Drawing Circles
Liu Jinghui followed Jiang Yuan’s steps, mapping out the routes in the vicinity.
Yuan Bomian, on the other hand, was busy collecting the nearby surveillance footage, which was a meticulous task. Comparatively, the cameras from police-community cooperation were easy to access, but the monitors installed by some small stores were troublesome. Some of them used home surveillance like Xiaomi, perhaps just to watch over the cash register or their goods. The management wasn’t strict, and the stored videos were a mess, so they might need to be brought back and organized before they could be useful.
In fact, Yuan Bomian himself wasn’t sure what use these videos would have once collected.
However, since Jiang Yuan wanted them, he had no hesitation.
If the videos proved useless, that was normal. It wouldn’t be ideal for Jiang Yuan to be at a loss for surveillance footage when needed.
Yuan Bomian speculated that Jiang Yuan might want to check the suspect’s mode of transport, specifically instructing, "Even if the traffickers separate people from goods, there ultimately needs to be someone to place the drugs at the transaction site. This person will most likely use a vehicle, so collect the surveillance around the roads thoroughly..."
"Yes." The subordinates responded somewhat perfunctory.
Yuan Bomian continued with a few more instructions, emphasizing, "Some surveillance cameras have been in place for so long that the owners might have forgotten them, so remember to collect those too. Like the security cameras in parking huts, those integrated with our police system, and others meant for viewing on security room computers should be collected as well. Also, nearby spots like elevator cameras, which aren’t visible when going up but can be seen when the doors open on the way down..."
"Got it, Captain Yuan." The team members were beginning to find the captain’s verbosity grating, their tone quite stiff.
Yuan Bomian helplessly said, "Don’t get annoyed by my nagging. The more peculiar the camera positions are, the less likely the suspects are to think of them, and they might just get caught on tape, right?"
