late at night.
It's quiet at night.
In the quiet corridor, only the faint whispers of men could be heard, discussing sending someone to death.
"The more we investigate this case, the more bizarre it becomes." Liu Jinghui put one hand on a box of files, and in front of him was a whole room full of files, so many that they could fill two or three medium-sized vans.
Wang Chuanxing was also buried in the cardboard array, and a muffled voice came out: "So the previous task force didn't even restart, just investigated it and abandoned it?"
"I'm afraid they haven't found the weird part." Huang Qiangmin, who was also hiding in a corner, said calmly: "For a case like this, without perfect preparation, who would dare to restart it easily. But when the opportunity is handed to you, you can't help but take a look."
Police officers are particularly aware of the power of opportunity because they have actually seen it happen.
For a case like Jianmenyuan, if there are clues, it is natural to follow up on the clues and conduct an investigation. There is actually no problem involved. If there are clues in a normal backlog case, the police will investigate it as soon as possible.
But this case is indeed difficult to investigate.
If you dig a little deeper, the clue will be broken.
Including the two clues discovered by Jiang Yuanxin, the conclusion obtained through bloodstain analysis, and the clues obtained through Wang Futing, which was just two more steps, and then it was naturally broken.
"It's indeed a bit abnormal. The flying claw is still a very unpopular item, especially after the founding of the People's Republic of China. It has basically been lost, and those who know how to use it don't need to use it anymore. So, the marks on the wall captured in the photos of that day, after being wiped twice, no one could recognize it as a flying claw." Jiang Yuan sat at a long table with pictures on several computer screens in front of him. He shook his head as he looked at them.
Liu Jinghui had also seen the photo Jiang Yuan mentioned, and couldn't help but say, "If it wasn't for Wang Futing's instructions, no one would recognize that it was the mark of the flying claw."
In the photos taken at the scene, there are indeed several deep cord-like marks on the wall of the gateyard, but they were rubbed twice by someone's foot. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to say what caused them. The point is that when no one mentioned flying claws, normal trace examiners would not think of flying claws either.
Even Jiang Yuan heard the word "flying claw" first before looking for traces consistent with flying claws.
LV6's tool mark identification is indeed god-like, but after all, we can't let the marks in the photos speak directly.
This may have affected Jiang Yuan's search for similar cases. If some of the police officers who investigated the scene did not take close-up photos, Jiang Yuan would not be able to connect them.
Jiang Yuan thought of this and simply introduced the issue of flying claw marks, which was also part of the communication of the case. He then said, "The notorious thieves who could use flying claws were basically dealt with after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Those who were released from prison were definitely strictly controlled. Few of them could live to the 90s and teach disciples. Such people would have been well-known in the Republic of China. Why would they ask Wang Futing to open the lock?"
"If you can use the flying claw, can you open the lock?"
"Not necessarily, but lock picking is much easier than using a flying claw. The locks used to build the gatehouse are not high-end products. You can learn it easily."
"So, it is unreasonable for a suspect who can use a flying claw to hire a locksmith named Wang Futing."
Jiang Yuan confirmed: "It's unreasonable."
Liu Jinghui nodded. "I also asked Meng Chengbiao to question him this afternoon. According to Wang Futing's latest confession, after he saw the flying claw, he felt more and more that something was wrong. So he took the safety bag he had prepared in advance and immediately took the train south. When he came back more than a year later, there were signs that his house had been ransacked, so he moved to a new place."
Huang Qiangmin sighed: "This guy is quite clever."
"Otherwise, he might be silenced." Cui Qishan also had his own judgment: "If things go wrong, this guy will become a scapegoat for the real murderer."
"What you said is indeed possible." Liu Jinghui looked over with approval, and found that it was Cui Qishan, the bastard. He put away the smile on his face and said, "Wang Futing may be a firewall set up by the real murderer for himself. I didn't expect Wang Futing to be a little smart."
"Otherwise, he won't live to see the end of the Duanda period." Huang Qiangmin responded. These veteran criminal police officers could fully imagine the huge risks contained in these few lines of text.
"It's a pity that Wang Futing is not dead." Cui Qishan sighed: "If Wang Futing died, it really proves that there is a conspiracy behind it."
"If Wang Futing died, there would be no such case at all." Tao Lu glared at him.
Cui Qishan chuckled and said, "So Wang Futing's death is a happy thing for everyone?"
"It's definitely better to kill him." Liu Jinghui immediately came to the conclusion, and then said: "If there really is a conspiracy, silencing Wang Futing is the most basic thing to do. Only in this way can the case be solved."
"So, this is equivalent to proof in reverse. There is no conspiracy? Proof by contradiction is equivalent to that."
"That's assuming the conditions haven't changed." Liu Jinghui is not the type to be led by the nose. He often thinks deeply. At this time, he just said softly: "There is also a possibility that Wang Futing ran away so fast that it was unexpected, or that he ran out of the conspirator's sphere of influence. After that, when Wang Futing came back, the situation might have changed again."
"Sphere of influence?" Cui Qishan laughed foolishly: "You mean..."
"Let's not talk about this for now!" Tao Lu cut off the stupid Cui Qishan's words and forced the topic back to the case itself, saying, "Director Liu, Jiang Yuan's previous judgment was that the murderer of the Jianmenyuan case was after money, not after people. But from what you said, the suspect came here with great deliberate intentions, and it seems more like he was after people rather than money."
Liu Jinghui glanced at Jiang Yuan, then smiled and said, "As the case is investigated, new clues are discovered, so it's not surprising to have new conclusions."
In other words, Liu Jinghui denied Jiang Yuan's judgment.
Jiang Yuan smiled at the other side of the long table and said, "Let's take Liu's judgment as the standard. When it was said that the murderer was after money, Wang Futing, the Duan Da, hadn't explained yet. Now we know that his accomplice can use flying claws, and he paid him 500 yuan to open the lock. This does not seem like a robbery. However, it is hard to say whether it is a robbery. It seems that there is no need to wait in the Jianmen courtyard to murder someone, and there is no need to search through so many objects."
"The rummaging might be to confuse Wang Futing. But it is true that if the murderer simply wanted to kill Zhang Xiaoming, there was no need to choose Jianmenyuan. There are many more suitable places on the road from the factory to the house. It is also easier to disguise it, and it can be easily made to look like a robbery and murder. Well... the timing is not suitable either. Zhang Xiaoming went home suddenly that day, and the time he returned home was not his usual time."
When Liu Jinghui analyzed it, it was just a string.
Everyone listened and thought, their heads full of questions.
Just like what Liu Jinghui said, this case is full of weirdness.
"It's not a murder for money or life, but it can't be a murder for love. I don't seem to hear any emotional entanglement with Zhang Xiaoming." Wang Chuanxing said in a cooperative manner. He was not seeking to solve the problem, but just to provide a voice for the discussion.
Liu Jinghui said, "It's unlikely to be a murder of passion. For a murder of passion, there's no need to look for Wang Futing. It's more likely to ask a friend for help."
The room fell silent again.
They just discussed the method of committing the crime and then the motive for committing the crime.
Traditional criminal investigation methods or analysis methods actually have a formula to follow. In the final analysis, there are only a few points.
For example, the murderer had a flying claw, which is a very unique tool and is very suitable for a bandit. But the characteristics of a bandit are that he commits crimes all year round and in many places, and he treats committing crimes as a career.
The suspect in this case clearly does not meet this characteristic.
As for the saying that the bandit dares not use the flying claw anymore because he has committed a murder, that is underestimating the bandit and is not in the best interest of the bandit.
As a bandit, the way he lives is to live a life of luxury and to be content with what one has.
Those who are afraid of death and have many concerns will not do such things. Most of the bandits are not executed openly, but die in gang fights.
Many more people like this die in nightclubs than in prisons.
After the flying claw route was blocked, the motive for the crime that everyone talked about was a method that the police had used countless times.
To sum up, murders are mostly caused by money, murder for love, abandonment, superstition, provoking trouble, mental illness and passion killings, but after everyone confirmed one by one, none of them seemed likely.
There were more than twenty policemen in the room, each huddled in a corner, flipping through files and computers. No one spoke for a long time.
Liu Jinghui actually helped everyone organize their thoughts.
It can even be said that his questions and answers themselves are guiding everyone's thinking.
At this time, Liu Jinghui spoke again: "In this case, we have to take the Zhang family into consideration."
