Chapter 1058

"Not bad, not bad. In that case, Li Wenjie, number 27, is ruled out. Next, let's look at this one, Yu Fang, number 41..." Liu Liu Jinghui tapped on the pad in front of him, his excitement reaching a high point.

Jiang Yuan stood still as instructed, verified Yu Fang's (number 41) footprints on the pad, and then, with the help of the forensic light, began to find his footprints among the chaotic mess, proceeding to describe Yu Fang's movement pattern step by step as he walked.

"His main range of activity is in this section. This is when his work state was relatively good; he should have been holding heavy objects, his physical strength was still okay... This is where he stood for a period of time..." Jiang Yuan stood on the transparent bridge, performing the actions as he walked.

By identifying the differences in the footprints, he could make certain analyses of the state of the person who left them.

The footprint identification at this moment felt like returning to the moment it was invented, when the old shepherd Ma Ma Yulin used it to find lost sheep and horses, able to tell when the sheep and horses were running, when they were resting, when they had eaten grass, and when they had encountered companions or danger.

The crew members in this courtyard appeared the same way in Jiang Yuan's eyes at this moment.

Of course, the difficulty of this task had also soared to the extreme.

In the crew, everyone's daily activity level was very high, and the phenomenon of footprints stepping over footprints was very natural. In such a scene, ordinary investigations could only choose to collect abnormal footprints or other traces, which was Jiang Yuan's first choice when he entered.

And in order to distinguish the traces of everyone at the crime scene as much as possible, Jiang Yuan directly activated the temporary +1 skill, and activated the temporary +1 skill for crime scene reconstruction. He directly upgraded his LV5 crime scene investigation to LV6, and the level of the sub-skill, crime scene reconstruction, was upgraded to LV7.

Once a skill reached LV7, it was truly terrifying.

Even Jiang Yuan had to adapt for a while to ensure he could successfully master the skill.

Liu Liu Jinghui was so thrilled he had goosebumps all over; it took him a good while to ensure he could successfully master Jiang Yuan.

"Number 53, Wang Binyu."

"Number 59, Zhou Le."

"Go back a bit, this number 38, Wang Yuxian. He's a prop master, right? Look at him, his testimony is somewhat muddled."

Liu Liu Jinghui picked out the suspects with questions, and Jiang Yuan checked them again.

Those without problems were set aside first, and those with problems entered the key investigation list.

At this time, Liu Liu Jinghui would look extra carefully. Jiang Yuan's verification would also be more meticulous, considering more content, even down to his companions, guessing what he was doing, and planning what to do next.

For Jiang Yuan, the latter was nothing more than staring at a footprint and analyzing it continuously. The interference came from the different footprints repeatedly trampled on the ground, but with crime scene reconstruction at LV7, such interference was really nothing to worry about.

As Jiang Yuan worked, he felt quite engrossed. With the LV7 skill active, it really gave one the feeling of holding the sky in one hand; it wasn't quite arrogance, but it was definitely unbridled.

Liu Liu Jinghui, needless to say, was truly on the verge of arrogance; it was only because of his age that he didn't become truly arrogant.

"Number 38 went to the changing room. Based on the footprint coverage, his footprints were covered by the victim's footprints. Combining this with the movement pattern, he should have gone to the changing room earlier than the victim." Jiang Yuan spotted the problem and, without waiting for a more complete conclusion, brought it up immediately.

Liu Liu Jinghui's spirits lifted. He immediately drew a five-pointed star in his notebook and said, "Add a star to number 38's suspicion level. Continue, continue. I'm going to make a call to the interrogation side."

"Okay." Jiang Yuan responded.

Liu Liu Jinghui first called Dai Mingshe to explain, then called the person in charge of the Lanyue City Interrogation Center. After finishing here, Liu Liu Jinghui sought out Wang Wang Chuanxing, gave him the information on number 38, Wang Yuxian, and said, "Check his information. Especially the financial side. See if there are any problems with his capital flow, or any special consumption directions. Also, online shopping records, WeChat records—oh, get his phone and see if he's installed any strange software, if he's bought any medicine, and check his search keywords..."

"Understood." Wang Wang Chuanxing replied, laughing, "We're handling one case across two locations now."

Checking so much information certainly couldn't be done by Wang Wang Chuanxing alone, but the Jiang Yuan Cold Case Squad didn't lack talent in this area. After all, they had all been recruited from Changyang City and had been training for over two years; they were absolutely fine with paper-based operations.

"What does it matter if we provide a little service to our brothers in other provinces? Your boss is Huang Huang Qiangmin; he can get back every cent you spend."

"When Political Commissar Huang shows up, he's delivering a 'billion' points of shock to the brothers in other provinces." Wang Wang Chuanxing laughed.

"I see your Captain Jiang quite likes that GL8; the car is new and the interior is nice. I'll mention it to Old Huang." Liu Liu Jinghui said with a smile, then went back into the courtyard holding the phone. While waiting for Jiang Yuan to send over new evidence, he called Dai Mingshe again, asking him to mobilize the technical and image investigation teams to check on Wang Yuxian.

Premeditated murder and impulsive murder are two completely different lines of thought.

Nowadays, most homicides police encounter are impulsive murders. This mode of killing rarely has a preparation process, and even if it does, in terms of duration and intensity, it counts at most as a "pre-swing."

But premeditated murder involves much more preparation.

Since you've premeditated it, you have to prepare all sorts of things. Like in this case, it's highly probable that drugs were prepared, and it's very likely that a weapon was prepared, just not used. Also, how was the time of the murder decided? Was it by following and waiting for an opportunity to kill? Or by lying in ambush at a certain location, waiting for the victim to arrive, or perhaps by obtaining the other party's itinerary in advance and then designing the murder?

As Liu Liu Jinghui thought about it, he couldn't help but smile.

"Director Liu, could you restrain yourself a bit?" Wang Wang Chuanxing looked up and saw this scene, shivering involuntarily: "Everyone is looking at you."

"Letting them see the power of deduction isn't bad either." Liu Liu Jinghui said, then urged, "Have you found any information on this Wang Yuxian?"

"If you mean evidence pointing to him as the killer, not yet. However, he does seem to have some financial pressure; his expenses exceed his income, and he has quite a lot of debt... Based on his income, he's at least 10,000 to 20,000 yuan in the hole every month. Unless he doesn't eat or drink, he definitely can't pay it back." Wang Wang Chuanxing read the information while looking down, and incidentally used a portable printer to print a copy for Liu Liu Jinghui.

Liu Liu Jinghui took it and looked at it for a few moments, saying, "It's all spent on women. The hotel room costs alone are 10,000 to 20,000, and they're all at good hotels. For his income, that's a bit extravagant."

"If he's with a big star, staying at a five-star hotel is to be expected, right?" Wang Wang Chuanxing added.

"A prop master and a big star? Are there photos? Is this guy handsome?"

Wang Wang Chuanxing took a look and shook his head slowly: "Just an ordinary person. Not bad-looking. Love?"

"Love can't stand up to scrutiny." Liu Liu Jinghui narrowed his eyes.

Jiang Yuan returned from the front at this time, holding a camera, and said, "If Wang Yuxian is the killer, he didn't act alone. He had someone with him."

Jiang Yuan showed the photos he had taken to the others, pointed to a footprint next to another, and said, "Wang Yuxian should have had a partner, or a stalker."
