Chapter 1272: Bloody Game (2)

Police Liaison Officer Chu Guanliang walked quickly into the police station's reception room, emitting a hearty laugh like an old politician.

Huang Qiangmin stood up in cooperation, also emitting a civil servant's laugh that sounded like it was soaked in water.

The Dama bureau chief, along with Nicha and others, emitted a host-and-guest-pleased laugh that sounded like silver bells hanging on a rubber tree.

Returning to the conference room, Huang Qiangmin arranged for someone to give Chu Guanliang a workstation, then introduced to everyone: "Section Chief Chu is our ministry's police liaison officer in Dama. He is quite familiar with Dama's political and police circles. When we handle cases in a foreign country, if we encounter problems, we should ask Section Chief Chu more. If you don't know whether you should ask, come find me... It's just troubling Section Chief Chu to escort us..."

"I will try my best to serve everyone well," Chu Guanliang's laughter made people feel like they were bathed in a spring breeze: "Ever since God Jiang's fame spread, our police liaison work in Dama often encounters situations where the other party asks, 'Do you know God Jiang?' I usually say I know him, and the other party's attitude changes immediately, hahahaha..."

Everyone gave cooperative laughter.

"Regarding this case," Chu Guanliang turned his head and said: "The victim of the second case, Senator Stewart, is a quite active political figure locally, involving multiple issues. After the news of his victimization spread, it had an impact on many aspects such as the real estate industry, construction industry, environmental protection industry, teacher treatment, and education reform... Dama hopes that Jiang Yuan will take over, and part of the reason may also be because we don't have too many entanglements with the local political and business circles."

Cui Xiaohu coughed twice and said: "It's not that cases involving political figures cannot be done, but that cases involving political figures must be treated with caution. In addition, Jiang Yuan's investigation style also has certain advantages. We should still focus on objective facts and objective evidence, try our best not to involve the local political ecology, and don't worry about what local political figures think. We just focus on solving the case."

"Use objective evidence to solve the case?" Wang Chuanxing glanced at Liu Jinghui and specifically asked on his behalf.

"Boldly hypothesize, carefully verify," Cui Xiaohu said a set phrase skillfully, but also expressed his attitude very clearly.

Liu Jinghui smiled, looking like he didn't care at all. He had been providing support in different prefecture-level cities for many years. By the time a case was sent for prosecution, the evidence level and factual level were always clear. Those who say reasoning doesn't talk about evidence are all haters!

The few people said another sentence, confirmed there was no problem, and then called Zhong Renlong. The latter quickly brought people, pushing more than a dozen handcarts, carrying various discs, USB drives, etc., to the office.

"Where should we start?" Wang Chuanxing came over to ask Jiang Yuan.

"I'll look first. You prioritize studying the first case," Jiang Yuan didn't make the decision casually.

First of all, in the first case, the killer's proficiency must be lower.

Secondly, the Stewart Villa case itself was valued by the police station, and a large number of personnel were dispatched to conduct a high-intensity investigation, involving multiple clues and links... From Jiang Yuan's perspective, just reviewing these "secondary" clues would consume a lot of time and energy. And if one didn't look at the "secondary" clues but traced the original evidence, many pieces of evidence had actually been destroyed during the investigation process.

However, the problem with the first case was also prominent, because it was a murder case that occurred on the side of a suburban road, so there was very little evidence, and even fewer usable clues.

Jiang Yuan spent an afternoon quickly flipping through it, then asked for the physical version of the autopsy report and read it carefully.

Zhong Renlong quickly transported a large amount of data in and sat nearby waiting.

In the time he was free, Zhong Renlong naturally approached Liu Jinghui, who was also looking bored and thinking, and couldn't help but ask: "Where does Section Chief Liu think this case is heading?"

"Can't tell yet. Have to wait for Jiang Yuan's report to come out," Liu Jinghui said with experience: "Jiang Yuan has also read your previous investigation reports and will definitely find a breakthrough as much as possible. We try our best to investigate with new breakthroughs, which will be easier."

"What if we can't find it?" Zhong Renlong couldn't help but ask.

Liu Jinghui smiled, using the trust of a dragon knight toward a dragon, and said: "How could we not find it."

Just like a dragon charging into battle, as long as the dragon wants a breakthrough, there will definitely be a breakthrough; it's just a matter of how much effort the dragon is willing to exert.

If the enemy's defense is not very high, naturally there's no need to consume too much energy and strength, but this is the dragon's choice.

"A robbery-murder case is inherently very difficult to solve," Zhong Renlong was a frontline criminal police officer, so he knew the difficulty of robbery cases better.

Especially for cases where the stolen goods cannot be found and there is no news in the streets, the difficulty of investigation is even higher.

Liu Jinghui said lightly at this time: "Actually, there is a direction. If we consider this case completely politically, as the saying goes, whoever is the biggest beneficiary has the biggest suspicion..."

"Section Chief Liu, Section Chief Liu..." Zhong Renlong interrupted him repeatedly, putting his hands together to beg for mercy: "We also have to talk about politics."

"What are you afraid of? It's just a suspicion," Liu Jinghui was amused.

"Your investigation idea is too terrifying. If you do this, even if the case is truly solved and evidence is found, we will be messed with by others," Zhong Renlong shook his head vigorously.

Liu Jinghui naturally understood, and then said: "If you want to take a shortcut, you have to take risks. If you don't want to take risks, then wait for Jiang Yuan's report."

"Uh... okay... By the way, the bureau chief has invited an excellent Cantonese cuisine chef for you, and it's almost ready. What time do you think it's better to have dinner? I'll notify him in advance." Zhong Renlong returned to the treatment issue, and the embarrassment he just encountered vanished instantly.

Liu Jinghui frowned: "Cantonese cuisine chef? Actually, it's unnecessary. We just had hot pot the past two days..."

"The bureau chief is worried that you aren't used to eating. Also, considering you ate local food and hot pot the past few days, maybe you want to change your taste today?"

"This... okay, thank you." Liu Jinghui had no motivation to refuse.

Zhong Renlong smiled and said: "The chef team has been preparing for several days. They are traditional Cantonese cuisine chefs. The various seasonings, high-quality soups, etc., are all boiled by themselves, including oyster sauce and soy sauce. They used dozens of jin of ingredients to produce a very small amount of seasoning..."

Zhong Renlong became much more confident as he spoke, having a feeling that Jiang Yuan would definitely like it.

On the other side, Jiang Yuan also gradually became confident.

Forensic investigation, if viewed broadly, provides very little information beneficial to investigation, just like the ancient coroners.

But if it becomes detailed, the more refined the information, the more help it can often bring.

Just like a simple gunshot wound, in the criminal police-style description of Zhong Renlong and others, it's that the victim suffered chest trauma, but in the eyes of a forensic doctor, a corpse killed by a gunshot will at least have an entry wound, perhaps an exit wound, and may also have characteristics such as contusion rings and wipe rings.

And two corpses killed by gunfire mean doubled details. Even because comparison is possible, there are more details.

"We solve one problem at a time," Jiang Yuan scribbled in his notebook for a while, put down the photos in his hand, and got up to find Zhong Renlong.

Zhong Renlong hurriedly got up: "Of course, you say..."

Jiang Yuan flipped his notebook forward and said:

"The first victim shot to death was 1.75 meters tall, and the height of the gunshot wound on the chest was about 1.3 meters, located at the fourth intercostal space. According to the position of the bullet entry and exit, I simply calculated the bullet trajectory depression angle formula, and then determined the shooting distance based on the traces on the ground, inferring the killer's height to be about 1.82 meters. This is under the condition of the killer's normal shooting posture."

"The second victim shot to death, Senator Stewart, was 1.78 meters tall... The final inferred killer height is also 1.82 meters."

"For the two female victims stabbed to death by short knives, the traces of the murder weapon are identified as the same."

"Currently, in terms of the most basic information, we can confirm that these two cases were indeed committed by the same group of killers. Currently, it looks like two people."

Jiang Yuan finished speaking in one breath, then looked at Zhong Renlong and said: "Two males, one of whom is over 1.8 meters tall. If we collect more surveillance footage, it should be helpful."
