Chapter 208: Covering the World

"Little Miao, find a computer for Jiang Yuan, a better one." Hou Lejia seemed to be in a good mood.

A case with clues is like a ball of wool that has found the thread end; although it cannot be said that the ball of wool will definitely be unraveled, the difficulty is definitely greatly reduced, and the mood of the person responsible for unraveling the ball of wool will gradually stabilize.

Little Miao was a policewoman, wearing a clean duty uniform, with big eyes and a very lively appearance, indicating that she was still young; after working in image investigation for a few more years, she would probably have to wear glasses.

Little Miao responded crisply, then looked up at Jiang Yuan and smiled: "Wu Wu Fa Yi Jiang, use my computer."

"Okay, thank you. That... send me a copy of the image from that computer." Jiang Yuan sat in the position and found various software.

During this period, the other two image technicians in Longli County were also working hard.

They found multiple videos, all images of the same criminal suspect, some entering the crime scene, some returning fully loaded; most of the time, he used the rope he carried with him to bundle the stolen items and leave.

Hou Lejia was a bit amazed and said: "When I first became a police officer, there were many burglaries, and people stealing things in such big and small bags, but now it has cycled back?"

Little Miao asked curiously: "At that time, were clothes particularly valuable and could be sold for a lot?"

"At that time... at that time it was the early 2000s!" Hou Lejia turned around angrily, frowned, and asked Little Miao: "How old do you think I am?"

Little Miao shrank her neck and whispered: "I was born in 2000."

Hou Lejia calculated with his fingers and was speechless.

Little Miao looked at Jiang Yuan again and whispered: "When Wu Wu Fa Yi Jiang was born, Captain Hou, you should have been working."

Hou Lejia scratched his head angrily: "We were proud of our young working age back then."

"I know, my mother said that at that time, buying clothes meant going to Changyang City, and there was no railway or expressway, so I could only take a bus. I also rode a bicycle to work... This criminal suspect should also be very old, so he likes to steal bicycles and large items." Little Miao tried to analyze the criminal suspect.

Hou Lejia's eyes were about to turn red; he always felt that he was in his prime, never thinking that after young people came to the unit, it would be so annoying.

The senior image technician next to him wanted to help the captain out of the siege, coughed twice, and said: "The criminal suspect likes to steal bicycles and large items, mainly because there is too little cash, and he might have a channel to sell them. As long as they can be cashed out, current bicycles are quite expensive, and electronic products are too. I see that several people's computers have had their graphics cards removed, and headphones taken, etc. Looking at his approach, he shouldn't be very old..."

Hou Lejia nodded and said: "The channels for selling stolen goods need to be checked; let Old Lu follow up."

Turning his head, Hou Lejia asked Jiang Yuan again: "Wu Wu Fa Yi Jiang, what do you think?"

After a day of contact, Hou Lejia, no matter how unaccustomed he was, had to admit that a technician of Jiang Yuan's level really had something.

The conclusions given were more reliable than many technicians from the municipal bureau.

Jiang Yuan was still staring at the computer screen and said casually: "According to the footprints, the criminal suspect is about 35 years old, 175cm tall, weighs about 150 jin, and should be relatively strong..."

Guessing is guessing, but Jiang Yuan spoke so accurately that Hou Lejia was a bit unaccustomed again.

It was Wu Wu Fa Yi Ye next to him who endorsed Jiang Yuan and said: "Wu Wu Fa Yi Jiang's footprint work is also at the forefront in the province."

Hou Lejia recalled, so he admitted it, nodded again and said: "In this case, the scope is very small. Let me think, if this guy has served a sentence, ask in the prison system, maybe there will be a harvest..."

At this time, the host computer Jiang Yuan was using roared.

A group of people couldn't help but look at Jiang Yuan.

"Wait a moment, just render it." Jiang Yuan stood up directly.

Now, it all depended on the computer moving itself, and the mouse was a bit stuck.

The violent host roared for a long time.

Finally, a photo was displayed.

Looking at it, it was still a bit blurry, after all, it was a surveillance video taken at night, but fortunately, the pixel count was sufficient. Jiang Yuan processed it a bit, and it could already be seen clearly with the naked eye.

It was almost enough to be used as a wanted photo.

If Jiang Yuan took the trouble to do more, he could probably make it even clearer.

However, time was also a very precious factor. This kind of wandering criminal was originally one who would change places after one shot. Now that he had killed someone, he didn't know where he had run to. Being able to determine his identity earlier meant determining it earlier.

Jiang Yuan clicked the print button directly and saved the photo.

The printer "kaka kaka" printed out a black and white photo.

I don't know which year's inkjet printer it was; the A4 paper printed was wet.

Little Miao took the initiative to take the photo and asked heartlessly: "Who is this?"

"Suspect." Jiang Yuan answered.

Several criminal police officers who were gathered together and discussing in low voices couldn't help but look over.

Jiang Yuan didn't need to sell the punchline and said: "This is a photo of the suspect I made using image enhancement; it was taken during this shooting a week ago..."

Jiang Yuan pulled the original photo onto the computer screen.

After all, it wasn't in his own team, so Jiang Yuan explained it more specifically.

Several people looked at the dark surveillance image on the computer screen, then looked at the photo Jiang Yuan had just printed, and their expressions were a bit blurry.

Hou Lejia looked at the senior image technician of his team.

The image technicians in Longli County had a level not much different from the three in neighboring Ningtai County; they knew a little about image enhancement technology, but didn't know it particularly well.

That image technician was thinking about how to make it up.

Little Miao stood by, feeling the same.

When Jiang Yuan said he wanted to do bloodstain analysis, they didn't speak, because they weren't crime scene investigators; later, when Jiang Yuan changed the criminal investigation direction, they didn't speak, because they weren't leaders; finally, when Jiang Yuan said he wanted to find a computer, no one stood up to speak for me again...

"Then let's distribute this photo to everyone to see if anyone recognizes him." Hou Lejia saw it and decisively pulled the case back to the normal track.

Little Miao came over, printed a few more photos, and sent the electronic version of the picture to the work group.

Hou Lejia thought about it and sent the photo to many people, just to ask.

Turning back, Hou Lejia looked at Jiang Yuan and pondered.

This guy covered the world today.

Although he tried his best to master the criminal investigation direction, in the end, all the work of pointing out the direction was done by Jiang Yuan.

Only the last part, real-person facial recognition, seemed to use himself and others.

Hou Lejia felt a bit uncomfortable, sighed secretly, and said: "Everyone find a place to rest tonight; after determining the suspect, I guess we'll be busy again."

Real-person facial recognition wouldn't have a reply so quickly; unless they knew it themselves, they would have to send it to some friends to ask, and it wouldn't necessarily have a result in one night...

Hou Lejia thought so, and also became a bit anxious.

An obvious fact that everyone didn't specifically mention today was what the situation of the two-and-a-half-year-old little girl taken away by the murderer was now.

Assuming the suspect wasn't a particularly vicious pervert—judging from his previous criminal behavior, he shouldn't be.

Then, the suspect's main purpose in taking the little girl away was likely trafficking.

A petty thief who commits burglary turning into a human trafficker wasn't a strange news story. The world between criminals and ordinary people might have a wall blocking it, but on the criminal side, their market was open.

Those who sell ecstasy, human traffickers, thieves, and those who sell stolen goods, there was no barrier between them.

Especially this criminal suspect, who often stole high-value goods to sell for profit, meant that he had a smooth sales network; selling children—perhaps it was precisely because he had killed someone and was preparing to run away that he took the child away, trying to sell her to raise a sum of money to run away.

In this way, solving the case as soon as possible became very important.

Once the child left the suspect's hands and entered a human trafficking channel, finding her back would become another complex and time-consuming case.

Anxiety was anxiety, but Hou Lejia was still kind to his subordinates, letting them find a place to sleep.

Just as it was messy, a phone call came back.

"This person is named Li Weibin, from Pingjiang... I caught him twice..." The other end of the phone gave Hou Lejia the information he needed simply and quickly.

Criminal police know that at this time, the other party must be very busy.

Hou Lejia thanked him quickly.

Without him saying it, the people below were also busy.

The recidivist's name was known, and his fingerprints, ID number, and various identity information were all known. Including mobile phones, WeChat, QQ numbers, and various social media and game accounts that required real-name authentication.

Handing these things to the network security brigade, and asking the technical investigation brigade for help, even if the recidivist used someone else's mobile phone number, someone else's ID card, or bank card, there was still a high probability of finding the real person.

In fact, in recent years, in order to deal with increasingly rampant telecommunications fraud, the matter of "finding people" had been highly specialized.

More than half of the technical funds invested by the ministry were related to this.

Internet giants like Penguin and Fox had also made many changes.

Nowadays, telecommunications fraud organizations have settled abroad one after another because they can no longer stay in the country.

Unless Li Weibin runs into the mountains under an assumed name, he will be found sooner or later.

Jiang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, only then feeling the fatigue surging into his heart, and couldn't help but yawn.

Little Miao noticed and quietly handed him a key, whispering: "If you are sleepy, go to the dormitory to sleep." ===== CHAPTER 209 =====
