crime shadow [criminal investigation]

After Tong Hui finished speaking, he regained his composure, as if the scar had been scarred so many years ago that no matter how hard he poked it, he couldn't poke the painful muscles and bones.Holding a cigarette between his hands, he narrowed his eyes in the haze of smoke, and said slowly:

"My daughter had just passed her first birthday, so I was transferred to the Qinghe District Bureau. The case of Soubun Middle School was the first homicide case I handled after I was transferred. Originally, I planned to report to Tingfeng, but halfway through My wife’s phone call said that my daughter was missing, and my wife also received a text message, which probably meant that I should not investigate this case, otherwise the ticket will be torn up, and my daughter will be sent back after the case is closed.”

He paused: "In our line of work, we see a lot of crazy murderers. I'm afraid he really dares... I dare not call the police, and I didn't tell Tingfeng. I just handed in a survey report. The matter That's it, if the superior wants to investigate, just come to me, it has nothing to do with Tingfeng."

Everyone is accustomed to regard the people's police as a solid barrier, but the barrier is also ordinary people. The only difference is that they have seen bloody crime scenes and analyzed the twisted and perverted psychology of suspects, so when bad things happen to them , that fear is more violent than others.

Tong Hui put out the cigarette, poured out the sweet potato tips in the shopping bag, took out a few pages of yellowed paper and put them on the table: "This is the inspection report that I transferred back then, with the date and the signature of the forensic doctor on it, it should be able to For evidence, as for the painting, I asked my wife to burn it on fire. I don’t know why you want to investigate the previous case. Now that I’ve come to this point, I’ll leave it to you. I did something stupid. I need you to clean up the mess, it’s troublesome.”

Jiang Bei accepted it, and did not review it immediately, but asked: "After the case was over, the other party did not send your daughter home as agreed, so you kept the old house?"

"No," Tong Hui rubbed his face, looking tired, "I hung a silver plate with the address on my daughter. If she is still alive, she might be able to find her home by herself. I will also go to the police station to collect blood I made a registration to see if I could match missing children. Later, my wife became pregnant and she was afraid, so I took her to move to a new house. Sometimes comrades from the police station would come to me, and I asked the tenant to help keep an eye on it.”

It was another family tragedy. Listening to this, Jiang Nan couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you ever think of looking for her?"

Tong Hui cleaned up the sweet potato tip: "How can I say, I feel that she is alive, what if I find her dead early? In the end, I am sorry for her, her father is useless." Tong Hui smiled wryly, "Some It’s better not to know about things, I read what’s called “Schrödinger’s cat” on the Internet, you will never know whether the cat is dead or alive until you open the box, you just treat it as alive.”

This self-deceiving god logic.

Tong Hui was obviously rushing home to fry sweet potato chips. After finishing business, he picked up his shopping bag and was about to leave. Before leaving, he packed a box of brown sugar glutinous rice cakes and brought them back to his youngest son.

As soon as the person left, Jiangnan pulled off his mask, exposing his ruddy lips, dipped his chopsticks into the syrup in the empty plate, and bit it gently between his teeth.Seeing his appearance, Jiang Bei's heart was inexplicably rippling, and he asked softly, "Are you hungry?"

Immediately without any explanation, I re-ordered the brown sugar glutinous rice cake.

The sweet glutinous glutinous rice cakes are put in the oil pan and oiled, the outside is crispy and the inside is waxy, and then poured with soybean flour and thick brown syrup, a snack suitable for all ages is born.Jiang Bei watched him eat, and within 2 minutes the man became uneasy, pulled out a few centimeters of white silk, and licked the syrup away from the corner of his mouth with the tip of his tongue.

Jiang Bei crumpled the inspection report in his hand: "Can you eat well?"

"Why do you always watch me eat?" Jiang Nan pulled a wet wipe to carefully clean his mouth and fingers like a fed animal, "If you like to watch, I always have to show something you like to watch, otherwise you won't watch it in the future What should I do?"

Jiang Bei: "..."

thank you.

Having said that, Jiang Bei didn't look away. The feeling was like raising a pet for the first time. He was afraid that it would be stressed and would not eat. He had to guard it to finish eating before he felt at ease. When the food plate was clean, he would think again—— Ah, this little thing can actually eat.Although Jiang Bei wanted to treat Jiang Nan as an adult, he couldn't do it, so he had to comfort himself with "life is equal".

"Do you know what your eyes look like now?" Jiang Nan took the inspection report in Jiang Bei's hand, stared at him and said, "Like an old hooligan who covets my beauty, shall we take a look when we go home? Where do you want to look? It will be all right."

So shameless.

Jiang Bei turned his face away almost in panic, grabbed the inspection report and studied it word by word in a serious manner.

The few pages had a stale and decadent smell, carrying Sun Yihang's grievances and Tong Hui's broken family relationship, but Tong Hui stole the report and the evidence together to cover up the matter, and the comparison was not completed. , Who left the traces is still unanswered.

Jiang Nan rested his chin with one hand and stared at Jiang Bei's profile, as if he was admiring a peerless painting: "There are many people entering and leaving the studio. The fingerprints may be left by the students and teachers. The key lies in the blood."

"The murderer will definitely find himself injured after the incident, and the possibility of returning to the scene is relatively high. At that time, Wen Hongliang was expanding the dance classroom at Yauchun Middle School, and went to the scene of the crime under the guise of watching the excitement, and he found that the police had taken Draw." Jiang Bei drank his saliva, and continued, "It is difficult for the police to investigate a homicide in a crowded place like this. To some extent, it can provide time for the murderer to escape, or plan the next crime. "

Jiang Nan said "Oh": "You suspect that Mr. Tong's daughter was abducted by Wen Hongliang in order to threaten Mr. Tong to stop the comparison?"

"I don't know." Jiang Bei said, "Wen Hongliang, who is drained by family burdens and is too old to be married, may kill people because of psychological imbalance, but he can kidnap children and threaten his family members. Text messages really don't look like his handwriting. Even if you want to do it, it's not difficult to tie up a child, but what about the family phone number, where did he get it?"

Jiang Bei pondered for a moment, and then said: "If Tong Hui's daughter was still alive, Wen Hongliang would not have raised her for so long six years ago. He wanted to threaten Tong Hui, at least for a short period of time to ensure that the child was alive. He can cry and fuss, but with his conditions and circumstances, no matter where he hides the child, he may be found."

Jiang Nan pointed out his thoughts: "There is a third party involved in this case."

Jiang Nan's mind was spinning very fast. He didn't analyze the problem from the perspective of a bystander, but was used to standing in the position of a suspect, treating himself as a suspect, and trying every means to break free from the law.This kind of person can either devote himself to the cause of public security and give full play to his own strengths to contribute to social security, or he can sit in prison. Jiangnan obviously prefers the latter.

He said: "Persimmons need to be picked softly, just like Sun Yihang, thinking of his mother's helplessness, he had no choice but to 'admit' his fault for causing death, because this sentence is the shortest. As for Mr. Tong, I have the contact of his lover. Way, if he is disobedient, today I will cut off the child's finger and send it to him, and tomorrow I will cut off the ear until he is obedient. I don't believe that he will ignore his daughter's life and insist on investigating how others died. By the time he reacted and wanted to call the police, I had already run away."

Jiang Bei's eyelids twitched, if it wasn't for Jiangnan who would send him a location report wherever he went, otherwise he wouldn't be able to tell.

Jiang Nan saw through his little thoughts and said with a smile, "Don't worry, it wasn't me, you almost locked me in a cage."

Jiang Bei let out a dry cough, and returned to the topic: "Zhang Xiaowei's appearance is indeed quite abrupt. With his connections—"

Before he finished speaking, the domestic mobile phone issued by the Municipal Bureau rang earth-shatteringly, and its power was close to that of the waist drum team that the restaurant opened.

He picks it up.

Lin An on the other end of the phone made another mistake of bluffing and chattering: "Brother Jiang, you guessed it right, Wen Hongliang called the lawyer and said that we didn't follow the rules, and all the calls went to the Commission for Discipline Inspection I went. There were not many people in the bureau on the big weekend, Deputy Bureau Song is on the way, you know that Deputy Bureau Song is still in menopause, and you can drown you if you scold someone."

Jiang Bei rubbed between his brows, feeling that Deputy Director Song's saliva had sprayed on his face.

"I'll be right back."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Bei walked out of the box in a few steps, suddenly remembered that he seemed to have left something behind, and was about to go back to get it, when a black figure stood behind him, trying to hide it, butted against the hollow of his knee, and said firmly: "I am here. "

"..." Jiang Bei explained to him briefly, "I have something to do, so you go home first."

-

"It's outrageous! The report calls have been made to the Discipline Inspection Commission. What on earth are you trying to do, huh? Fraudulent confession, warrantless search, and it's fucking night. Is it different from breaking into a private house? The family members still let you You're in the hospital! How did you take the oath when you entered the city bureau?"

As soon as he returned to the game, Jiang Bei accepted the baptism of Deputy Director Song's spitting star, and silently took a step back, away from the jet.

Deputy Director Song supported the desk so as not to faint from anger: "It's fine for you alone, but the criminal police detachment let you take half of it! Do you want to rebel? Who else, Jiangnan, dare to testify Smear blood on things, didn’t you promise me to take care of him? You and Lao Xu will suffer later, do you think it is so easy to be a guarantor? The superiors attach great importance to this case, and I am afraid that the situation like half a year ago will happen, so it is better for you to make small moves under the tiger's nose."

Jiang Bei waited for him to finish cursing before saying without changing his face: "Wen Hongliang——"

"Don't tell me that the person surnamed Wen is a suspect," Deputy Director Song raised his hand to interrupt him, "Even if you don't follow the rules, it's still a question of whether the things you find can be used. The lawyer is waiting for an answer in the reception room. The Disciplinary Committee is also asking me what's going on, tell me whether I should let this person go or not?"

Jiang Bei sighed helplessly: "Although Wen Hongliang didn't admit the murder himself, he is very suspected of committing the crime, including the case six years ago. He has been on the run for six years, and it will be difficult to catch him if he is released. Wait. After the case is over, I will go to get the punishment.”

"You're really—" Deputy Director Song gritted his teeth, and said bitterly, "I can't hold back words at ordinary times, but when you talk about these things, you're always in the same place. I remember you weren't like this before. Where did you learn crooked ways?"

The older people in the bureau all climbed up from the grassroots step by step, and they cooperated a lot when they were young.Deputy Bureau Song knew Xu Zhengyuan, Jiang Bei's master, but Xu Zhengyuan was in poor health and became unable to do what he wanted at an early age.But for the first time ever, he took Jiang Bei in and held him hand in hand.At that time, Jiang Bei was still a tender young man, and Deputy Bureau Song was only a sub-detachment. He usually made fun of Jiang Bei.

Deputy Bureau Song recalled the method of extorting a confession he had bluffed with Jiang Bei back then, coughed twice in embarrassment, and most of his anger was lost: "Sit down, have a cup of tea with me, and then explain the progress of the work. It's hard to take a vacation, just give it to me Make trouble."

Deputy Director Song said while taking out Huamaofeng, which he had kept for some time. That tea was poisonous in the bureau, and Deputy Director Song liked to drink green tea with a short shelf life. Every time he bought it, he did wholesale. The left and right are not expensive, so you can put it in any corner when you buy it.Due to improper preservation, the internal staff once cleared out several bags of black and long-haired tea in his office, and after that, they spread everywhere that Song Deputy Bureau was clean and thrifty, and he was reluctant to buy good tea.

Jiang Bei took the cup and offered himself a cup of boiled water: "Don't bother, I'll just drink hot water."

Deputy Director Song looked at him suspiciously.

"By the way, regarding the case of Soubun Middle School six years ago, I went to the technician who handled the case. He admitted that he had taken away the physical evidence privately, and that the current survey report was also falsified," Jiang Bei told the inspection report given by Tong Hui. Put it on the desk, "This is the biological sample extracted from the physical evidence, and it was taken away by the technician before it could be compared. Someone was innocently imprisoned because of this missing report, regardless of my interrogation. According to regulations, it is a fact that Wen Hongliang knew the victim Wang Yuqi."

Deputy Director Song put on his reading glasses, studied the words word by word, and said after a while, "Fingerprints... fingerprints in places where crowds gather are difficult to find, the key lies in the blood."

This is exactly the same as Jiangnan.

"I know what you think, and I plan to detain Wen Hongliang before looking for evidence, but it's not like before. The era of self-examination and self-correction has passed. With the Disciplinary Committee watching, I will delay you until the end of the interrogation time at most," Song The deputy director adjusted his glasses, "I mean, don't waste time doing other things, first compare the bloodstains and fingerprints, which may be left by students, and it will take time to find them. Wen Hongliang has a criminal record, if he is the murderer, The database is one-to-one accurate, and the main purpose of everything is to solve the case, don't think too much about it."

These words came out of Deputy Director Song's mouth, which was somewhat unpleasant. This time, Jiang Bei looked at him suspiciously: "It's not just about the report, Cheng Ye also gave false testimony."

Deputy Director Song felt dizzy when he heard the names of the two brothers: "Oh, everyone is dead, so you still want to dig out his urn and send it to the detention center?"

Jiang Bei: "..."

"I know you can't let go of what happened half a year ago, but Yang Chao is in charge of that case now, and he is the one who should investigate it. You don't want people to say that you are using public affairs for personal gain?" Deputy Director Song knocked on the table, "Do you understand?" ?Your main job now is the current case. What position do you do? You don’t want to rely on your power to make a fuss. Get lost, what should you do? If you can’t find any evidence and can’t pry Wen Hongliang’s mouth open , then I have no choice but to let him go, hurry up! I still have to write a statement, bastard Wen, I really want to..."

Deputy Bureau Song was the same as before, he always had to curse a few words to feel comfortable after finishing the business.

Jiang Bei took the inspection report and sent it for comparison. When he came out, his two "accomplices" ran over and asked questions in a hurry, for fear that he would be poisoned by the expired Hua Maofeng.

"Did Deputy Director Song invite you to drink tea? I brought you a bottle of probiotic drink, which is said to cleanse the stomach."

"Why don't you just go and have a stomach wash?"

Jiang Bei still didn't understand that he was in his thirties, how did he get the national treasure treatment?He glanced past Wang Zhipeng and Lin An, and asked, "Where's the investigation report?"

Wang Zhipeng's face darkened: "Do you treat our department as a donkey for the production team? The survey report will be made shortly after the goods are delivered. No wonder you don't have any girls there."

"Then hurry up," Jiang Bei took the drink in Lin An's hand and said to him, "If you're fine, go home and rest first, and wait for the report and comparison results to come out, there is still a tough battle to fight."

Lin An climbed along the pole, and brought along a strong man to act like a baby. This differential treatment made Wang Zhipeng turn his head and leave.

Before leaving, Jiang Bei went to the interrogation room to see Wen Hongliang, but he didn't go in. He stood in front of the one-way glass and observed the people inside.

After only one night, Wen Hongliang was very old, his face was yellow, and the bags under his eyes were about to drop to his chin. He felt that he couldn't sleep.

As if he knew someone was out there, he raised his head leisurely, and tore off the honest fake skin, every pore revealed a mean and vicious look, his eyes looked like old dirt deposited on the bottom of a trash can for many years, wrapped in the dirtiest and smelliest things to wear Through the glass, it landed on Jiang Bei with precision.
