Chapter 447

Early morning.

Bai Jian, who hadn't eaten for a day and a night, stared with bloodshot eyes, guarding the large office of the Criminal Police Brigade, watching the list on the wall in front of him increase and decrease.

He had scattered almost all of his subordinates; more than 100 criminal police officers, of whom more than 20 went to Ma Family Village, 50 or 60 went to the surrounding villages respectively, and the remaining 50 or 60 were sent to nearby villages, towns, cities, and counties in units of four, and some went to detention centers and prisons.

All the criminal police officers were doing the work of taking inquiry records, and the content was actually the investigation of people released from prison in Ma Family Village and the surrounding areas.

This kind of work is simple if you say it's simple, but if you really have to do it step by step without omission, it is the most testing of grassroots public security and governance capabilities. In large cities in Europe and America, where police and residents do not trust each other, similar work cannot be carried out at all.

The criminal police team of Shi Tingxian often does similar work. In fact, Bai Jian's command to solve cases mainly relies on investigation.

Unlike what ordinary people imagine, normal criminal police, especially veteran criminal police, do not actually master much more criminal investigation techniques than criminal investigation enthusiasts. To be precise, it is normal to have less.

As for what veteran criminal police rely on to solve cases, in addition to the experience accumulated over time and passed down by word of mouth, they rely more on serious and fierce eyes, serious and fierce expressions, serious and fierce laws, plus diligent legs and feet and some luck.

Now, it is time to use legs, feet, and luck.

Although full of expectations, Bai Jian didn't know if the murderer was really among the people with criminal records, and he didn't know when he would be able to investigate, and it was this expectation and worry that mobilized Bai Jian's emotions strongly and powerfully.

It's like gambling, but it's much more exciting than gambling.

Ordinary people gamble, at most they gamble with money and family wealth, but what Bai Jian is gambling with now is other people's lives!

Three corpses in one case, home invasion robbery and murder—every word is an aggravating factor for the death penalty. As long as this person is caught, even if there is a major meritorious performance, the death penalty cannot be escaped. At most, it will be executed two years later.

"Captain Bai, how is it?" Huang Qiangmin entered the door with a debt-collecting smile on his face.

Bai Jian is a bit afraid to see him now, croaked twice, and then said, "What can it be? It's just an investigation house by house."

"Don't be in a hurry, it's better to be three steps slow than to miss a single thread." Huang Qiangmin's attitude was unexpectedly humble, and he even eased Bai Jian's emotions.

As a criminal police brigade captain, Bai Jian knows how anxious everyone is in this position. If you say that the Luo Weina's temper is easy to be irritable, then look at the criminal police brigade captain, and you will feel that the Luo Weina is already a gentle dog.

In an instant, Bai Jian realized: "Are you afraid that I won't be able to catch the person and tarnish the reputation of your Jiang Yuan?"

Huang Qiangmin smiled and admitted: "Our Jiang Yuan has been roaming Shannan for so long, and the number of homicide cold cases he has solved is more than that of a county bureau. If it is because your investigation is not careful and there are omissions, then it is really going to be scolded."

"It's just investigating a few villages, not to that extent." Bai Jian curled his lips.

Huang Qiangmin smiled: "It's best to go smoothly. If it really doesn't work, it's okay to invite Xu Taining over."

Bai Jian was stunned for a moment, and his brows slowly wrinkled: "Are you threatening me?"

"What kind of threat is this?" Huang Qiangmin smiled, revealing his canine teeth, and his expression was a clear threat.

If the 3-yuan plain noodles are not made well, we will eat 300-yuan crab roe noodles.

Huang Qiangmin is not bragging. With the current reputation of Jiang Yuan's cold case task force, if he insists on inviting Xu Taining, Shi Tingxian will most likely not be able to hold on.

For a homicide cold case with three corpses in one case, as long as there is a chance to solve it, why don't you invite Xu Taining?

You say you have no money, the Qinghe City Bureau and the Provincial Department will probably subsidize a part, the Shi Tingxian Bureau will pay a part, and then everyone will be mobilized to work overtime to participate, which is also a matter of course.

If you don't agree—if you don't agree, solve the case yourself. If the communication is not good, the above might just throw down a time-limited case-solving order.

If you can't understand the pressure here, you can imagine a student who, when taking the final exam, can't do the last bonus question no matter what. At this time, the teacher suddenly announces the time range of this exam, but the bonus question must be completed, and the ranking is based on the bonus question's score.

In this world, there is no zero that has no consequences at all.

"Don't think that every county's criminal police team is like your Ningtai County." Bai Jian is indeed a bit afraid of Huang Qiangmin, and indeed a bit worried that the case cannot be investigated, and even more afraid that the legendary Xu Taining will make the county bureau owe a famine for a case... However, Bai Jian lost the formation but not the person, and his tone was not soft at all.

Huang Qiangmin stared at Bai Jian and said: "Our Ningtai County's criminal investigation ranking has always been above your Shi Tingxian."

"You just have money, and you have a college student forensic expert like Jiang Yuan. But the technical and tactical level of our frontline criminal police is definitely not inferior to big cities!" Bai Jian looked extremely confident.

Huang Qiangmin was too lazy to refute, and turned to say: "When you screen for suitable people, gather a few people and send them to Jiang Yuan. He is watching at any time. If you find the murderer, you don't need to continue screening. The scope can be expanded, don't narrow it down. Those who have been administratively detained also count..."

"Got it." Bai Jian paused and said, "Jiang Yuan, don't miss anything."

"Don't worry." Huang Qiangmin smiled as if he was about to grow teeth.

Ma Family Village.

Mu Zhiyang followed the criminal police of Shi Tingxian to inquire house by house and take records.

The work he did was very peripheral. The serious criminal police followed the local police, led by village cadres, to inquire about the families related to the victim Ma Jun in turn.

Shi Tingxian itself has a key list, all of which are villagers who have grudges or even hatred with Ma Jun.

Everyone has been resting and breeding here for hundreds of years. There are those with close relationships and those with deep grievances. Bai Jian is more concerned about the situation of hatred. After all, the benefits of Ma Family Village are not worth the degree of killing three people.

The criminal police he sent out naturally prioritized inquiring about the villagers on this list and their relatives.

Mu Zhiyang and a few people from Jiang Yuan's cold case task force were sent to strengthen the strength here, and naturally were sent to do less important inquiries. Even so, the criminal police of Shi Tingxian did not trust them too much and still sent people to follow.

As a criminal police officer, who doesn't trust anyone is like an occupational disease that wants to tire oneself to death.

Mu Zhiyang's illness is a little lighter.

He has been with Jiang Yuan for too long, and he has executed Jiang Yuan's orders too many times, so he has to believe in some things.

In the process of taking inquiry records in Ma Family Village, Mu Zhiyang did not have the impulse to get any information. It was like chatting, pulling the old people at home to talk about idle things.

In the current village, all the old people and children live there, chatting all day long, and they have already talked through it. Occasionally, there is something fresh, and it spreads throughout the village in the morning and evening.

A young man like Mu Zhiyang, with a police uniform, is willing to chat with the old men and women, and his popularity is almost going to exceed Ma Jun's death story.

By reason, everyone originally had nothing to hide. Ma Jun was a person from Ma Family Village, and his whole family died, leaving only one son, who has now gone to Changyang City to work. The villagers should help the police find the murderer.

However, the police asked everyone to describe the criminals with criminal records among their relatives and friends, which made everyone mutter a little.

Mu Zhiyang ran to a few families and had some experience here, so he chatted and asked with a smile: "You haven't dealt with the police usually, what should you do if things are lost in the field?"

"Things in the field are not lost if they are less. If they are grown well and people take them away, it is equivalent to helping others. If they are not grown well and lost, it is a waste of things, and there is no police report." The old lady sat in the kitchen, smoking meat while lighting firewood, and chatting with Mu Zhiyang and others.

There is a tradition of smoking meat around Shi Tingxian, and the place is too humid. If you don't smoke meat, the pig for the Spring Festival will not be able to eat until March or April of the coming year, and it will grow maggots.

The traditional Shi Tingxian smoked meat is hung on the stove, and it is smoked during the daily cooking time. It's just that people's meat consumption is large now, and hanging a few pieces of meat on the stove is not enough to eat. The old men and women in the village also shoulder the task of supplying smoked meat to their children, and some people will smoke more, and then sell it to the peddlers who walk the streets and alleys.

Peddlers, earn a little living expenses.

Mu Zhiyang smelled the smell of smoked meat and continued to chat with the old lady about smoked meat. Anyway, he had no task quantity, and he went out for a day.

After a few rounds, when talking about losing things, the old lady said: "In the village, Ma Zhongmou's eldest grandson was the most naughty before, and he stole my smoked meat to sell for money, and then took the money to the town to play games. That kid has grown up, and he didn't come back after growing up."

The old lady poked the fire, let the smoke stand up, and said: "Now the land in the village is deserted, and no one eats what is grown. Even smoked meat is not stolen by anyone."

Mu Zhiyang searched his notebook and said: "What is the name of Ma Zhongmou's eldest grandson you mentioned?"

The old lady recalled and said: "Ma... Jiuhuang, right."

"Oh, then this Ma Jiuhuang, did he go to jail?" Mu Zhiyang made a record.

"No jail, that's not enough to go to jail, just a matter of taking some smoked meat."

"Oh, then where did he work later, working?"

"I don't know that either. Ma Zhongmou died a few years ago, and he also has no life to enjoy happiness..."

Mu Zhiyang made a record, chatted with the old lady for a few words, and then made a record.

After coming out, changing to another family, Mu Zhiyang still chatted in the same way, and took out the information he had just obtained, sold it on the spot, and verified it by the way.

Speaking of which, Mu Zhiyang is already very familiar with the investigation. Just the investigation organized by Xu Taining, he has participated in two or three times. The experts from the Provincial Department brought by Xu Taining, or experts from Changyang City and other places, helped Xu Taining command, etc., and each time they would do some short training.

Now let Mu Zhiyang do the investigation command or something, he is naturally unable to do it, but let him participate in the investigation, he has already done quite well.

After doing inquiry records for five families in a row, half a day passed.

Mu Zhiyang reported to the criminal police squadron leader in charge, and by the way, found the addresses of several people found in the investigation, and sent information to the criminal police sent to the local area according to the place.

Shi Tingxian has dozens of criminal police officers, and now they are floating outside. The addresses of the people found in the investigation belong to which place, and the criminal police sent to the local area will continue to inquire and investigate.

As for the local criminal police, although they can ask for help or accompany the case, it is not very realistic to want to borrow the other party to handle the case directly.

After Mu Zhiyang finished his work, he returned to Shi Tingxian, slept well that night, and went to help the next day.

Like this for two days, and then to the third day, Mu Zhiyang got up early and came to the police station to take a car, and saw Bai Jian and others, who were already combed with oily heads and faces, standing on the steps early, posing.

"This is?" Mu Zhiyang had some expectations, and hurriedly grabbed a familiar criminal police officer to ask.

"Oh, Officer Mu is here." The criminal police officer shouted, but it attracted Bai Jian and others.

Mu Zhiyang was confused and pushed to the steps, and also started taking pictures.

"Little Mu is here."

"Team Mu, look here."

"Mu Zhiyang, thank you for your hard work."

The familiar scene and the familiar language system made Mu Zhiyang subconsciously touch his arms and legs, thinking: Could it be that I was injured two days ago, but I didn't know it myself?

Fortunately, Wang Chuanxing ran over and explained to Mu Zhiyang in a low voice: "Ma Jiuhuang, whom you pulled out, his roommate in the detention center is the murderer."

Ma Jiuhuang is just a fellow villager of Ma Jun, and the kinship between the two is out of the five clothes. The roommate in the detention center is an extremely fragile line. Mu Zhiyang said unexpectedly: "Can such a distant relationship be connected?"

"Height, weight, age, and shoe size, so many factors added together, there are not many criminals with criminal records who can meet the requirements." Wang Chuanxing paused and said: "Ma Jiuhuang is already a habitual thief. I heard that he can make meritorious service, and he also worked hard."
