Chapter 1338

~11 min read 2,112 words

The morning sun rises, the green radish hangs lightly, there is no wind in the room, and the cattle and horses are running.

Wang Chuanxing lay on the ground, his legs twitching unconsciously twice. He had been busy all night, and only lay on the folding bed at dawn, and then there was no sound.

A room full of police officers walked around, but didn't wake Wang Chuanxing up. It wasn't until the leaders started to go to work that someone kicked Wang Chuanxing.

Wang Chuanxing rolled over and sat up, his eyes didn't even open, and he spat out clearly: "The data of the Bajiang Burning Corpse Case has been organized, just waiting for Director Jiang to read it."

"How do you know I'm not Director Jiang." Shen Yaoweg, who kicked him, was dissatisfied.

Wang Chuanxing opened his eyes: "Director Jiang kicks so accurately, they are all acupoints... Bah, Director Jiang couldn't possibly kick people. I guessed it was you, kid!"

Shen Yaoweg laughed hehe twice: "The director is here, I'm doing it for your own good."

"For my own good, I should let the director see me bowing and scraping and sleeping on the folding bed." Wang Chuanxing complained while slowly packing up the folding bed.

Just as he was packing, Jiang Yuan, Liu Jinghui, and Xu Taining walked into the conference room together. The first thing that caught their eyes was Wang Chuanxing who was packing the folding bed.

"Oh, Chuanxing slept in the office last night?" Liu Jinghui was a sensible one. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted out, as if he was very shocked in his heart.

Wang Chuanxing smiled contentedly: "It was too late yesterday, I really couldn't hold on, so I slept for a few hours. However, the data of the Bajiang Burning Corpse Case has been organized. I also contacted personnel to deliver the relevant evidence for the other four cases that were submitted and evaluated as C-level. They should all be cleared up by noon today."

Liu Jinghui followed the topic lightly, thinking: "The four C-level cases, where are they?"

"Three of them are in Pingzhou, some burned before the incident, and some burned after the incident. The other one is in our Changyang City. It was a corpse burned in the wild. The identity of the corpse is not determined, and it was burned very severely. The evaluation is C-." Wang Chuanxing said.

"Are the crime scenes determined?" Liu Jinghui said, came to the desk, and said: "Chuanxing summarized it well. 3 in Pingzhou, 1 in Shannan. This is very interesting... Counting the Li Huimin case, the several cases currently suspected are all concentrated in Pingzhou and Shannan..."

"Is the murderer running between the two places?" Huang Qiangmin heard that several people had come, wiped his face, and came over, also asking with deep dark circles: "If it's just two places, our fishing net is cast too big."

Xu Taining had too much experience in this, and glanced at Huang Qiangmin very firmly: "Don't worry, the resources invested in other places can't compare with Shannan and Pingzhou, so it is Shannan and Pingzhou that will produce results first. Therefore, resources determine everything. You have to invest a large amount of resources to have a large amount of output."

Huang Qiangmin smiled and didn't pick up Xu Taining's stubble at all. It wasn't that he didn't believe in the resource theory. In other places, he was more resource-oriented than Xu Taining.

Furthermore, Huang Qiangmin had been in contact with Xu Taining many times and knew that he couldn't win the debate against Xu Taining, because he dared to bet with anyone on any decision.

It wasn't that his accuracy rate was high, but that he had bet everything long ago, so any form of adding bets was costless to him.

Xu Taining's work destined him to only win, and even to win beautifully. At this time, he was like a coach of a championship team. Victory was common to him, continuous victory was just his daily life, and failure would make him lose his reputation.

"I'll follow up on the progress." Xu Taining didn't look at the specific data, just picked up his mobile phone and chased people.

Jiang Yuan picked up the evidence of the several new C-level cases and read them.

The evidence being sent over was physical evidence, and the photos were basically complete.

According to Xu Taining's grading, compared with the similarity of B-level cases, these C-level cases were actually mainly close to the Li Huimin case in terms of target selection and burning corpses. To say that the modus operandi was identical, there was still something to talk about.

However, like Xu Taining, Jiang Yuan was not in a hurry either. Since the big net had already been cast, don't be in a hurry to catch. He continued to look at the previous case files, unhurriedly like a fisherman from the air force. Now everything was ready, what was missing was not technology or effort, but fishery resources!

Near dusk, the green radish curled slightly.

Jiang Yuan's mobile phone rang "buzz buzz".

The laughter of Zhang Dinghui from the Meiyang City Bureau came first: "Hahahaha, I finally caught the time to call you. You wouldn't have just gotten off work and be eating, right? Hahahaha..."

Jiang Yuan only felt childish and replied: "It's still my normal working time. Do you sleep well, Bureau Chief Zhang? Do you still have night terrors?"

"You kid, hahahaha..." Zhang Dinghui was amused, so much so that the young people under his hand looked silly. The two police officers who had just joined the job looked at each other, feeling that they seemed to have grasped the context of officialdom.

"Is there a discovery?" Jiang Yuan asked.

"Yes, we have a case, a case of arson after entering the house, but it didn't burn up, only the curtains were burned, but the victim was indeed in a state of being tied with both hands, and the tying method also conforms. Should I ask someone to send the data to you?" Zhang Dinghui said about the business, immediately attracting Jiang Yuan's attention.

"That's great, sorry to trouble you." Jiang Yuan didn't feel Zhang Dinghui was childish anymore. Just this ability to hand in the paper first, he had to be an old urchin.

"What's the politeness? I'll ask someone to send the basic information of the case to you first, send a text message and then send a WeChat, okay..." Zhang Dinghui, as a bureau chief, was often served by others and knew very well how to make people comfortable, just depending on whether he wanted to or not.

Jiang Yuan agreed happily, waited for a moment, and immediately received the information. After opening it, he saw the index information such as the case file number.

He beckoned Wang Chuanxing over, and soon, a large number of pictures surged out.

Jiang Yuan first flipped through the photos of the victim's wrist being tied, then looked at the victim's autopsy report, and the answer was about to come out.

"Did you find it?" Liu Jinghui and Xu Taining, who received the news, both came over.

"Possibly." Jiang Yuan paused, looked at Xu Taining, and said: "A-level. The tying method is basically the same, the rope chosen is also a similar small type, and the length looks about the same. In terms of killing method, although it is not inserted from the heart, it is also a practice of stabbing into the chest. A total of three knives were used, and the purpose was to kill the victim thoroughly."

"Is this an earlier murder case?" Liu Jinghui understood all at once and replaced it with excitement.

Xu Taining said in a deep voice: "Serial killer."

The probability of the murderer being a serial killer was originally very high, but now that this point was relatively confirmed, for Xu Taining, the search mode would also change.

"What can you see?" Liu Jinghui asked. From his perspective, the focus of the serial killer's investigation was the early and initial cases. For this kind of profession with an extremely high elimination rate, excellence is the norm, and rough men are the minority.

Jiang Yuan quickly flipped through the photos, looked for a long time, and said: "The murderer is only one person, about 1.8 meters tall, weighing about 180 jin. From the footprints, he is not a strong man with even fitness, but more inclined to the type with a beer belly. Male, at the time of this case, he should be about 27 years old."

Liu Jinghui said: "This case is more than a year earlier than the Li Huimin case, which means the murderer is about 44 years old. If the float is a bit larger, between 42 and 46 years old?"

"About the same." Jiang Yuan said, and added: "Wait for the evidence related to the case to be sent over, I can scan it again to see if there are fingerprints. However, looking at the bloodstains at the scene, the murderer likely wore gloves, so there is not much hope."

"How much there is, counts as how much. We have already made much more progress than when the case was opened. Of course, this case must be chewed and swallowed slowly. Although it is also a cold case of sixteen or seventeen years ago, if we can find the murderer through this case, or find some evidence, it is all profit!" Xu Taining's mentality was very good, and he even laughed when he said this.

Jiang Yuan and Liu Jinghui also revealed smiles. Stringing together cases is what this effect is for.

The smile hadn't passed, and Wang Chuanxing held his mobile phone again, handed it to Jiang Yuan, and used his mouth shape: "Guqi City Bureau Gao Changjiang."

Jiang Yuan nodded to the people next to him and picked up the phone: "Bureau Chief Gao!"

Gao Changjiang's voice was high: "Director Jiang, I didn't fail the mission. We found a case that has quite a lot of similarities with your case!"

"That's great, should I put it on speaker first?" Jiang Yuan asked, and after getting consent, immediately hung up the speaker and said: "Bureau Chief Gao, please tell me the specific case."

Gao Changjiang: "Okay, it's a case of robbery and murder after entering the house. The murderer tied up the deceased, ransacked the residence, and then killed and burned the corpse. The scene was destroyed a lot due to the fire fighting, so the case was not solved in the end. However, the colleagues who searched the case believe that the modus operandi of this case has similarities with the case you want, especially the practice of tying the deceased's hands and then stabbing a dagger into the heart, which is relatively identifiable..."

Jiang Yuan thought of the phone call he just received and couldn't help but say: "That is to say, the murderer of this case completed the killing by accurately stabbing into the heart?"

"Yes, our forensic doctor said it was inserted along the ribs, quite accurately, and there were no scratches on the bones. It should be that he touched the deceased's chest and inserted the knife." Gao Changjiang added a sentence because he was talking to Jiang Yuan: "It is said that it is quite difficult."

"It is not easy." Jiang Yuan agreed, and immediately asked: "What is the specific time of this case?"

Compared with other parts of the human body, the protective ability of the ribs in front of the heart is already top-notch. The gap between one rib and another rib is very small. Not to mention stabbing vertically, when stabbing horizontally, the amplitude of one end of the blade warping is too large, and there is a possibility of stabbing the ribs.

Therefore, the difficulty of the murderer's operation in this case taken out by Guqi City Bureau has increased. Jiang Yuan asked for the specific time, which was also for verification.

Liu Jinghui and Xu Taining also thought of the same problem and stared at the telephone set quietly.

Gao Changjiang on the other side of the phone covered the receiver and asked a few questions, then said: "I confirmed it. It's less than a year earlier than your Li Huimin case, about 16 years ago? We have quite a lot of data on this case. The key is that there is an eyewitness who saw a stranger coming out of the corridor that day, and the building caught fire soon after... It's a pity that I haven't found anyone..."
