354: Chapter 354 Sweeping them all in one fell swoop, wiping them out completely

One of the department leaders even secretly glanced at Qin Chuan not far away, nodding in admiration.

Don't let his youth fool you; he truly has real ability!

Fortunately, there was Secretary Qin Chuan. Otherwise, who knows when this case would have been solved. If they hadn't solved the case on time, the leaders of their Provincial Public Security Department would have all been in trouble.

On several large screens, the situation on the front line was displayed clearly.

Heishitan is a remote beach over two hundred kilometers from the capital of Guangdong Province. Because time was of the essence, Wei Xinglong and the others traveled directly by helicopter.

This operation involved not only the cooperation of the Special Police and the Coast Guard, but the local Public Security Bureau had also dispatched a large number of police officers. Under the cover of night, everyone quietly closed in on Heishitan.

At least five or six kilometers away from their destination, Wei Xinglong and his team disembarked from the helicopter, starting with drones to scout the path.

In the night, several drones emitted an almost imperceptible buzzing sound as they flew toward Heishitan, transmitting the reconnaissance footage back.

From several directions, a number of police cars approached Heishitan with almost no sound. After a while, they could almost hear the sound of the waves.

Wei Xinglong raised his hand to signal a stop. Everyone got out of the cars and switched to jogging forward; if the vehicles continued, the noise would be too loud and might alert the enemy.

Two or three hundred meters away, hiding behind trees or large reefs, they could vaguely see people and vehicles on the beach ahead in the faint light.

It must be the people from the counterfeit money syndicate!

The drones were equipped with advanced night vision and had already transmitted the footage back. Wei Xinglong and his team also received instructions to remain hidden, not to expose themselves, and to wait for the order to act.

Why not rush in and surround them? Because the fishing boat No. 55671, which was transporting the counterfeit money, had not yet appeared and was still being searched for.

A moment later, the action order came through the radio earpiece.

The fishing boat transporting the counterfeit money had been located, at most two or three kilometers from Heishitan, so it was time to move. Several assault boats, two helicopters, and two Coast Guard ships had already rushed over.

"Action!"

Wei Xinglong pulled the slide to chamber a round, let out a low shout, and charged to the front, using the terrain as cover to rapidly approach the criminals.

Qin Chuan and the others were in the command hall, watching clearly through the large screen. Seeing this scene, they knew the situation was under control.

Whether it was because the location was too hidden or they were simply too confident, these criminals had only used a drone for a simple reconnaissance, and seeing nothing unusual, they had completely let their guard down.

Suddenly, noise came from all around. By the time they realized what was happening, Wei Xinglong and his team had already closed in, their guns aimed at them.

"Don't move!"

"Raise your hands!"

Some of them were still preparing to resist, but seeing the large number of heavily armed police officers, their hearts sank immediately, knowing it was over.

Without firing a single bullet, all seven criminals who had come to receive the counterfeit money were captured, and not a single one escaped.

Single-line contact has its benefits, but also significant drawbacks.

The benefit is that if one person is exposed, the whole group won't be wiped out at once. The concealment is better, safer, and more reliable. For example, when Lin Wenxin was arrested, even though he spilled everything like beans from a bamboo tube, he only exposed two people.

The drawback is that once someone is caught, others won't know for a short time. For instance, when Lin Wenxin was arrested, Kubo Kenichi didn't know because he always took the initiative to contact Lin Wenxin when needed, rather than the other way around.

When Kubo Kenichi was arrested, the others in the counterfeit money syndicate didn't know for the time being and still proceeded with the counterfeit money handover as agreed, and as a result, they were all captured by the police.

On the sea.

Several assault boats, carrying fully armed Special Police, rushed toward the fishing boat from several directions. Because of the cover of night, the people on the fishing boat hadn't noticed them at all.

It wasn't until they were very close that someone felt something was a bit off.

"Boss, look, that boat is rushing toward us."

"Oh no, it might be the police!"

After this discovery, the fishing boat increased its speed, preparing to flee, but two helicopters had already flown over at high speed.

Someone on the fishing boat was holding a lifebuoy, preparing to jump overboard. As soon as they poked their head out, there was a "bang," and they were shot in the head by a sniper on the helicopter.

A call came from the sky: "We are the Chinese Special Police. Please put down your weapons and surrender. Anyone who resists will be shot on sight!"

Another person refused to believe it and, holding an assault rifle, rushed out and fired at the helicopter in the air.

"Da da da..."

Before they had fired more than a few shots, and before even half a magazine was empty, there was a "bang," and they were also shot in the head by the sniper.

After two consecutive headshots, no one dared to resist anymore, and no one even tried to jump into the sea to escape. Soon, several assault boats rushed over, the Special Police boarded the vessel, and they quickly took control of the fishing boat.

On the large screen, all of this was played almost in real-time.

Qin Chuan nodded approvingly and gave a thumbs up, "Director Du, your men have good marksmanship. Two consecutive headshots, and they immediately brought the situation under control."

Director Du Qingbo said, "Secretary Qin, it is mainly because you interrogated so much information and clues. If we had still messed things up, it would have been embarrassing."

After saying this, both of them laughed.

Through the large screen, one could see that a large amount of cash was soon discovered on the fishing boat, packed in those large cases and stacked neatly. Opening one of the cases, it was full, and visually, it looked like five million.

On this fishing boat, there was at least several hundred million in counterfeit money!

Bureau Chief Gu Hanlin said with great relief, "The people who came to receive the counterfeit money and the people who delivered it, except for the two who were shot, not one escaped. The rest were all captured. Well done!"

"Next is to destroy the counterfeit money factory on Gongji Island. I hope it goes just as smoothly!"

Qin Chuan reminded, "Director Du, I feel that this counterfeit money factory might not be simple. You must act with the determination to use a sledgehammer to crack a nut; you cannot underestimate it!"

"Understood, thank you for the reminder, Secretary Qin!" Director Du Qingbo said, "We have dispatched sufficient forces, so there shouldn't be much of a problem. At this time, the people participating in the operation should not be far from Gongji Island."

Checking the time, Director Du Qingbo said, "In at most an hour, our men will land on the island and complete the encirclement of this small island."

On one of the large screens, a satellite photo of Gongji Island was displayed.

This uninhabited desert island was very small, with craggy rocks, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. No wonder they chose such a small island and spent a great deal of effort building a counterfeit money factory underneath it.

Kubo Kenichi had already clearly confessed the location of the factory entrance, including some information about the factory itself; he knew some things, but not much.

Everything he knew had also been completely confessed.

Because of the limited understanding of this factory, Qin Chuan was quite worried. His intuition told him that this factory was not simple, which is why he had just reminded Director Du Qingbo that they must act with the determination to use a sledgehammer to crack a nut and not underestimate the enemy.
