Chapter 540: Deadlock
Qingbai City Conference Room.
Members of the special task force from the Ministry, Provincial Department, Changyang City Bureau, and Qingbai City Bureau were arguing in a mess. Everyone was very polite when doing things before, inviting each other to dinner, chatting and drinking.
It was when talking about the problem of funds that everyone was very restrained. Whoever had more and whoever had less could always be negotiated.
Until I heard the story of Xu Tai-ning...
"Our budget is already at the top!"
"We are also full."
"Who can stand this."
The situation at the scene, saying that the crowd was excited, is already a relatively good adjective.
Liu Jinghui doesn't need to discuss the problem of budget funds. He sat far away and watched, and whispered to Jiang Yuan next to him: "Seriously, it's so hard to invite Old Xu every time. If we can't use him this time, let's not invite him."
"I have no ideas anyway now, do you have any?" Jiang Yuan asked back.
Liu Jinghui wiped his face with his hand: "I have plenty of ideas, can you verify them?"
Jiang Yuan could only shake his head with a smile. It's an accumulated case from 20 years ago. There are not many things that can be verified, and the few lines drawn out now all need to be investigated, and it is still investigating people and things from 20 years ago.
Only after investigation can this case continue. Or, you have to look for other clues.
Members of the special task force from various units also realized this situation, so arguing is arguing, making trouble is making trouble, the main thing is still the problem of amount budget and distribution, it doesn't mean not to invite Xu Tai-ning.
Until Xu Tai-ning arrived in Qingbai City, the noise in the conference room didn't end.
Anyway, Xu Tai-ning himself doesn't want money. They are mainly discussing the expenses during the investigation. Therefore, it will probably continue to argue until Xu Tai-ning leaves.
"Director Xu, you've worked hard." Jiang Yuan and others welcomed Xu Tai-ning at the door.
Xu Tai-ning, wearing a white shirt, still had some traces of fitness on his body. When they met, Xu Tai-ning stared at Jiang Yuan and said seriously: "It doesn't matter if I work hard or not, but you can't grab my case to solve it again."
"Wronged. I found clues to solve the case during the process of your investigation..." Jiang Yuan explained quickly.
Xu Tai-ning hummed and said: "If you have clues to solve the case, you should use them early. What is the situation this time? Can you solve the case in advance!"
"The Jingyang Line triple homicide case, if it can be solved, I definitely want to find a way to solve it immediately." Jiang Yuan shrugged: "However, it is a bit stuck at the moment. We have to find people from 20 years ago. I don't know if we can still investigate."
"As long as the strategy is arranged properly, people can always be found." Xu Tai-ning said his experience, paused, and then asked: "How did you think of doing this case? The difficulty is not small."
"Quite difficult, means exhausted." Jiang Yuan said, and began to introduce the situation to Xu Tai-ning.
He first talked about the unsuccessful peripheral investigation of the No. 3 body, including the search for eyewitnesses, a large number of footprint identifications, the applied imaging enhancement technology, the search and inquiry of these groups of people, etc., and then talked about the means used after turning to the No. 2 body, including the guesses of Liu Jinghui and others, as well as the information obtained from forensic botany, botanical gardens, etc...
Xu Tai-ning listened while walking and began to become very serious.
When they entered the conference room, Jiang Yuan was still introducing the situation to Xu Tai-ning, and Xu Tai-ning simply took out paper and pen to take notes.
Liu Jinghui and others sat on both sides, with serious expressions on their faces.
"This case is very difficult." When Xu Tai-ning raised his head again, his tone was very heavy.
Jiang Yuan was fine, but the leaders of Qingbai City felt a thump in their hearts first. Although they also wanted to solve this case very much, they were small and had a small business, and they really couldn't afford it.
Xu Tai-ning didn't look at anyone's eyes, hooked a few times on the paper with a pen, and then said: "Actually, it's about the same as I thought before I came. The difficulty of the case is placed here. If it is executed specifically, I think it can be discussed, but the preparations to be made in the early stage can now be roughly estimated."
This is also Xu Tai-ning's habit of doing things. He doesn't play the trick of cutting meat with a blunt knife, because ordinary units can't stand it.
Xu Tai-ning does things here, paying attention to cutting the mess with a sharp knife, and cutting the meat with a sharp blade. One knife cuts down, it is bloody, and then it keeps cutting and bleeding...
Xu Tai-ning pondered and said: "First of all, the market where the victim was, people who worked in it back then, as many as can be found, should be inquired as much as possible. A two-person investigation team can be in the form of a police officer and an auxiliary police officer. 50 groups should be enough..."
Liu Jinghui looked up all of a sudden, so few? It doesn't look like Xu Tai-ning's style!
Xu Tai-ning noticed Liu Jinghui's expression, raised his neck proudly, like a black truffle goose neck roast, proudly said: "Exquisite snacks, I can also do it."
Liu Jinghui nodded with a smile.
Xu Tai-ning nodded in response, and then said: "This first scene of the botanical garden is very important. I see the tree species given by Jiang Yuan are ginkgo trees, etc. This kind of tree is generally not cut down, right? The trees from 20 years ago should still be there now. Try to see if you can find the evidence left back then, such as buttons on clothes, or even things like hair ropes, which should be useful."
The police officer sent by Huo City responded.
"The staff of the botanical garden should be checked." Xu Tai-ning knocked on the table: "What else?"
Liu Jinghui helped to supplement: "You can check to see if there are any vehicle registration forms back then. If it is a vehicle entering and exiting, is there a registration form? Because generally speaking, the distance that people are willing to abandon the body on foot usually does not exceed 100 meters. If no car enters the botanical garden, I think the murderer is more likely to choose to abandon the body on the spot."
"Unless the body is hit by a train, this matter itself is meaningful." Li Haochen checked for omissions and filled in the gaps, saying: "Why must the murderer put the body on the railway?"
"Mainly for cover, right? Turning a murder case into an accidental case." Liu Jinghui said: "After the first case occurred, the Railway Bureau did not announce specific details. From the perspective of people outside, is it equivalent to the first case being avoided?"
Xu Tai-ning nodded slightly: "There is this possibility, then we have to search the Railway Bureau. I think the employees of that year can be asked all over to see if there are any results..."
Just this sentence exposed Xu Tai-ning's nature.
Investigating a part of the clues of a case, just investigating all the people in a whole Railway Bureau, and they are all from 20 years ago. It is bullying people to have a personnel list and find people.
Although I feel wasteful, no one raised an objection, because this clue might really be useful. Even if the investigation of the previous special task force must have checked here, 20 years have passed, who knows.
For a case like the triple homicide case, the main thing is no omissions.
If you want to engage in cost-effectiveness and play with probability, it is better not to touch this kind of case, because the most likely situation is that the money is wasted, the manpower and material resources are wasted, and in the end, the case is still not solved, and it makes the successor more difficult.
"In addition, what is your plan for the other two victims?" Xu Tai-ning changed the subject and went around again.
The leaders of the Qingbai City Bureau were instantly nervous, fearing that a word from Jiang Yuan would triple the expenses.
Fortunately, Jiang Yuan's plan is to advance a pawn every day, so he said: "For now, let's concentrate our energy and check along No. 2."
"Don't you check the connection between them?" Xu Tai-ning was a bit surprised.
Normal serial homicide cases usually have to look at the relationship between the cases, such as whether the three people have any common friends, participate in any common friends, or participate in any common activities daily, or what common hobbies, all of which may be the cause of death.
However, according to the analysis of Liu Jinghui and others, the three victims in this triple homicide case have very few connections with each other. Most importantly, the previous special task force has already pursued this direction very far, and Liu Jinghui and others have not found any loopholes for the time being. This is different from investigation. Doing it again is a completely different concept.
Liu Jinghui made a little explanation in a low voice, and Xu Tai-ning sighed with regret. Compared with the scale he expected, it was a bit small.
Of course, Xu Tai-ning's goal is not to pursue scale...
Xu Tai-ning said: "Then let's visit the relatives and friends of the victims more. I don't know if we can find them now."
The detachment leader of the Qingbai City Bureau immediately expressed his agreement. As long as it is not three directions together, this is still acceptable... relatively speaking...
Xu Tai-ning organized the manpower that day.
For him, such a scale belongs to the ordinary level among the ordinary. Not only is it not laborious, but it even feels like a warm-up exercise.
The really tired ones are the ordinary police officers. They each received a few lists. If they can find the corresponding people in the city, it is good luck. If they can't find them, they have to find a way to video. If it still doesn't work, they can only go on a business trip to find them.
When Jiang Yuan did footprints before, there were similar situations, but the number of people with footprints was too small, and the number of people Xu Tai-ning drew this time was too many.
Therefore, although the total number of people is small, the total expenditure is climbing up.
Before anyone raised an objection, a brand-new clue broke the dull deadlock:
"The No. 2 victim seems to be in love."
The news came, and without Liu Jinghui summarizing, a big drama of emotional killing had already exploded in everyone's minds. ===== CHAPTER 541 =====
