Chapter 1226

Playing badminton is a relatively simple and popular sport in modern cities.

If you just play casually, two rackets and a ball, you can play in any open space. But to play until one arm's shoulder joint is worn, and even until the wrist joint is worn and hyperplastic, a standard badminton court is a must.

Moreover, unlike basketball courts, which have a relatively heavy wild attribute, badminton courts have a need to avoid wind and are mostly built in venues. This makes it easy to have reservations and charges, and easy to leave mobile phone numbers and names. Of course, the most important thing is the badminton partner.

You have to have someone to play with to play until bone hyperplasia occurs. And for such a long-term sparring partner, it is highly probable that they will call the police if they go missing.

Jiang Yuan waited for less than half a day before a file of a suspected victim was sent over.

"Ye Qianyi, female, teacher at Xi Hou Street Elementary School in Donghua City, teaches art. Her daily hobby is badminton. She participated in badminton competitions at school and won third place. She has been missing for four years and two months, and was 32 years old at the time of her disappearance." Wang Chuanxing read while holding a PAD.

The criminal police present all had thoughtful expressions.

The occupation and hobbies of this missing woman fit Jiang Yuan's judgment, but this disappearance time was much earlier than the death time.

If judged by a normal case, either Jiang Yuan's judgment of the time of death is inaccurate, or Ye Qianyi did not die shortly after going missing.

This easily reminds people of Li Ningxia. Since the corpse in Binshui South Road Park is not her, where is her corpse? Or rather, where did Li Ningxia go?

Wang Chuanxing then said: "Ye Qianyi went missing on January 20th. At that time, the school had just started its vacation. Colleagues at her unit thought Ye Qianyi had returned to her hometown. Later, they couldn't contact her, and they also thought that the communication or network in her hometown was not very good. It wasn't until the New Year was approaching that Ye Qianyi's family couldn't contact Ye Qianyi, so they called the police at the local police station, and then rushed to Donghua City on the third day of the Lunar New Year to call the police again."

"What era is this? Whose hometown's communication and network can be so bad that people lose contact?" Cui Qishan couldn't listen anymore.

Wang Chuanxing said: "Mongolia."

"Hmm..." Cui Qishan touched his head.

Wang Chuanxing coughed twice and said: "In short, the investigation into Ye Qianyi didn't go smoothly because she had been missing for a long time. There wasn't much surveillance near the house she rented in Donghua City, and the final location of her disappearance wasn't determined, so it eventually became a cold case... We also notified the Donghua City police, and they should be rushing over today."

"Donghua City is a third or fourth-tier city, the housing prices shouldn't be expensive, right? A teacher in her 30s, is she still renting?" Cui Qishan questioned.

Wang Chuanxing looked down for two glances and said: "Ye Qianyi is also divorced, but has no children. After the divorce, she didn't want the house, divided 220,000 yuan in cash, and rented a house near the school."

"How do you say?" Liu Jinghui, who is always asked this question, suddenly said this.

Jiang Yuan turned his head immediately, smiled, and said: "Do you have any ideas?"

Liu Jinghui nodded slowly: "Divorce and property division—this is an event that easily produces extreme emotions."

"Indeed."

"The two cases are connected and have certain similarities..." Liu Jinghui looked at Jiang Yuan with feigned composure: "It is highly likely to be a serial murder case."

As soon as this was said, let alone Jiang Yuan, even Xiao Si looked over: "Director Liu, we generally call it a series murder case. Serial murder or something... that's only said in detective novels."

"Xiao Si!" Cui Qishan pulled Xiao Si and whispered: "If you court death again, I will send you to guard the reservoir! Do you not want support anymore or what?"

"A slip of the tongue." Xiao Si immediately apologized to Liu Jinghui: "I'm sorry, Director Liu..."

Liu Jinghui was too lazy to bother with Xiao Si, waved his hand, and only said to Jiang Yuan: "In short, let's link the cases."

"Okay. I agree." This is the meaning of the situation. Out of respect, Jiang Yuan confirmed with Tao Lu.

Linking cases is not just a matter of investigation, but also involves the issue of jurisdiction.

Ordinary people often don't have a very deep concept of police jurisdiction, and even feel that police in local cases wasting travel expenses to go to other places to handle cases is not as good as asking local police to come forward, and so on. In this regard, you can understand a little by looking at deep-sea fishing. In many cases, jurisdiction is decisive.

Of course, there shouldn't be much controversy about the jurisdiction of this case. Even if there is, the competitiveness of the Zheng Guang Bureau is comprehensively crushing. Tao Lu just nodded slightly and agreed.

Then, Jiang Yuan asked: "Does Ye Qianyi have any deposits? Calculated from the day of her disappearance, did it rain in Donghua City? Was there a rainy night?"

Since it's a linked case, these are all possible overlaps.

Wang Chuanxing immediately looked at the PAD, and after a while said: "Ye Qianyi has a deposit of about 220,000 yuan. It rained four days after she last contacted someone, a rainy night."

"Is this the killer's pattern? Then where did he go at that time?" Xiao Si is also a very self-centered person, and he didn't change in the slightest because of the small conflict just now.

These two questions of his cannot be answered at this time.

Cui Qishan skipped them and said: "If neither of the two deposits has been touched, the killer might really be rich, or he is extremely careful. For such people, there will be fewer flaws."

"Being rich, or being careful and cautious, is itself a screening item." Liu Jinghui gave a better angle.

Cui Qishan gave a wry smile: "Thinking from the good side, it's like this."

"Both victims have deposits. How did the killer choose the victims?" Liu Jinghui quickly guided everyone into thinking, and then asked: "We also said before that the second victim, Li Ningxia's social relationship is relatively simple. How was she targeted by the killer? Was it intentional, or was it a temporary passionate crime?"

Jiang Yuan and the others didn't speak for a while. Without data support, the guesses in this regard were too complicated.

"Could it be a random crime?" Wei Shiyan was holding a coffee cup, leaning against the window, as if he were a young master in a campus novel. He took a light sip of coffee and said: "There is indeed a connection between the two victims, but what is the difference between having a deposit of 200,000 or 700,000? Who doesn't have a deposit of hundreds of thousands nowadays? Divorce is also too normal. The killer might just want to find a woman who is easy to handle, and then chose these two."

Several people couldn't help but look at Liu Jinghui.

Liu Jinghui thought carefully: "Although it's a bit 'why don't they eat meat porridge,' it's true that you can't say his idea is wrong. Although both victims have deposits of hundreds of thousands, since the killer didn't move this money, he shouldn't need to consider this factor. Currently, the information on both victims is not comprehensive enough. I suggest dividing into two teams for deep excavation. Especially Ye Qianyi's interpersonal relationships, we need to dig carefully."

"And rainy nights." As a forensic doctor, Jiang Yuan couldn't forget this and said: "If the killer doesn't kill on a rainy night, wouldn't it be too wasteful for him? On that rainy night, were there any other cases in Donghua City?"

Wang Chuanxing immediately flipped through the data and said: "Yes, there was a homicide case discovered five days after the rainy night, which was not solved. However, the deceased was male."
