Chapter 550: Finding People by Footprints

After lunch.

Jiang Yuan rested in the dormitory for a while, and when he came out near work time, he heard a commotion in the courtyard.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Yuan asked Wang Chuanxing, who had already come over to watch the excitement.

Wang Chuanxing looked at the excitement and said: "The first case we did this morning, the one about stealing agricultural materials, the image office found a Wuling Hongguang, followed the license plate to the owner's house. Now the owner's family and relatives have all followed, but the owner didn't come."

"The steel pipes in the vegetable plot, right? Were the steel pipes found?" Jiang Yuan asked.

"Not found."

"There is a driver in the checkpoint photo, right? Is the driver the owner? Didn't he come?"

"The driver is the owner, he didn't come."

"A little cleverness." Jiang Yuan evaluated. If the party concerned is not present, you cannot arrest people, let alone trial in absentia, which gives room for making trouble.

Wang Chuanxing said: "Isn't this just a lack of evidence, so they are so arrogant? Five cousins in the family, the father's generation is also three brothers, and there are two uncles. Just the men are 10 people, and I heard there are aunts and uncles rushing over."

As they spoke, the instructor also saw Jiang Yuan, came over helplessly, and said: "It is estimated that it will be tossed all afternoon today. This family is just a bunch of fools, and they don't understand the law, they just make trouble."

The instructor looked at Jiang Yuan while speaking, hoping he would spit out a word.

The value of a dozen steel pipes is not high, and it does not meet the hard condition of 3,000 yuan. In theory, a case of 5,000 yuan must be filed, but it is not completely without room for discussion. Just like now, if the trouble is too big, it seems that emotions can be appeased first to avoid greater losses.

Jiang Yuan smiled and said: "This family doesn't look like they don't understand the law. And, not being able to steal things should be a social consensus. Those who don't understand the law should also know."

"You are right, it's just that ordinary people don't care about them." The instructor saw that Jiang Yuan was not very happy, so he explained: "I look at the appearance of the victim, it should be that they don't want to make a big deal out of it. They live in the village and don't want to offend this Jin family..."

"Criminal cases have nothing to do with whether the victim wants to or not." Jiang Yuan was from the countryside himself and knew what the instructor was worried about. This kind of family with several brothers and multiple relatives, even if they are not village bullies, is a very strong family in the countryside. If one of their family members is sent to prison, those who are not convinced will definitely go to the victim's house to find trouble in the coming time.

If it was a big case, it would be fine. This kind of case where they only squat for a few months, when people come out, they have to go to the victim's house to make up for it. By then, it will be the police station constantly going out to mediate, exhausted.

If the Jin family was really reckless, it would be easy to handle. A charge of picking quarrels and provoking trouble would lock up another one, and it is estimated that it would be clean for a while. But if they splash feces when passing by today, and throw two rabbits in your vegetable plot tomorrow, the victim's family will only be more uncomfortable.

However, Jiang Yuan looked at the aggressive appearance of this family, but didn't want to let them go easily.

This family is a bit too arrogant. Knowing that they are in the wrong, they dare to run to the police station to make trouble...

Jiang Yuan said: "Most of the rural areas in Ningtai, if there is no demolition money, most of them have gone out to work, right? Why are all the young people in this family staying in the village? What do they rely on for a living?"

"Open a shop." The instructor hit a soft nail twice, and was too lazy to manage this matter, just cleared himself, and said: "I asked the local resident police, the Jin family mainly opens shops in the township, some relatives go to Qinghe and Ningtai County to open shops, and some are in the neighboring township, doing everything, this time they gathered together."

"They are dressed quite well, and they can afford a car." Jiang Yuan evaluated.

"Is the business doing well?"

"Maybe." Jiang Yuan didn't quite believe it.

Township residents generally have no cash. Even if they open a shop, the money they can earn is limited. The situation of this family is obviously better than the average level. And judging from the language and way of doing things they have shown so far, it is obviously not purely relying on intelligence or physical input to obtain income.

"You go and call Mu Zhiyang over too." Jiang Yuan said to Wang Chuanxing.

Wang Chuanxing nodded, went out without a word, and pulled Mu Zhiyang back.

"You two do something, first find some floating soil, sprinkle it in the courtyard, then call the Jin family to the side in batches, let them pass by the floating soil, and then take pictures of the footprints." Jiang Yuan paused, and added: "It may not be easy to take pictures, I will stand by and watch."

Wang Chuanxing and Mu Zhiyang immediately nodded and went to do it.

The instructor watched from the side without knowing why.

"Instructor. If it is convenient for you, find two people, pour some water for the Jin family, collect the water cups and the like later, and take some fingerprints?" Jiang Yuan made another request.

The instructor then understood what was going on, and couldn't help but say: "Are you suspecting that there are other cases?"

"Just watch the excitement." Jiang Yuan didn't need to explain to him, just smiled and said: "It's raining and beating children, just idle. I'll go over first."

After saying hello, he stood in the open space next to the courtyard, as if purely watching the excitement.

After a while, I saw Mu Zhiyang and Wang Chuanxing bring two boxes of soil, and sprinkled them in the middle of the courtyard.

Then, Mu Zhiyang stood under the shady wall corner, took a notebook for records, and waited for Wang Chuanxing to call people over.

Wang Chuanxing called people for the first time, and four people came together. Passing through the courtyard in the middle, the footprints under the feet of several people were clearly visible, and the gait was clear.

Wang Chuanxing looked at Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan nodded imperceptibly.

The four arrived at the wall corner, and were pulled a few meters away, but they didn't follow the rules, and pricked up their ears, insisting on listening to the questions Mu Zhiyang asked.

Mu Zhiyang simply asked a few basic questions such as name, age, and mobile phone number.

The four people were inexplicably taken back from the other side by Wang Chuanxing, Mu Zhiyang took the opportunity to take pictures, and corresponded the footprints with the names.

After a while, Wang Chuanxing brought out two more people.

It was the same approach.

In this way, the Jin family became proud, and the people who came later walked with their arms swinging.

The Jin family came with more than a dozen people in total. Jiang Yuan waited to see them all, then turned and returned to the office.

Mu Zhiyang and Wang Chuanxing collected the record books, took a few more pictures in the courtyard, swept the courtyard, and returned to the office.

As for the fingerprints collected by the instructor, Jiang Yuan didn't take it too seriously. Collecting fingerprints is a simple thing. The point is to collect the full fingerprints of ten fingers, which is a bit difficult, but if necessary, there are ways later.

"What to do now?" Wang Chuanxing returned to the office with Mu Zhiyang, still a little slightly excited, and guessed Jiang Yuan's idea.

"Turn the cases in the village where this Jin family is located to the top, just the last few years, those with footprints, let's take a look first."

Jiang Yuan's focus is on footprints. Because modern people actually know that fingerprints will expose their information, so ordinary stupid criminals also know how to cover up fingerprints.

Moreover, compared to doing cases in the city, the fingerprint marks in the countryside are harder to preserve, and thus harder to use for solving cases.

Footprints are different. Ordinary people can hardly cover up their footprints. Sweeping away footprints while walking is something that can only be thought about. Crime is actually a very hard thing. For example, stealing things in the middle of the night, usually in the dead of night, walking in the dark, walking thousands of steps in one night, it's easy.

Walking in the dark is tiring enough, and you have to bend down to sweep the floor? What if you move large items? For example, in the case of missing steel pipes just done, you can't sweep the floor when moving steel pipes, right? After moving, you are sweating and then sweeping the floor? How do you know where you walked just now in the dark? Look with a flashlight?

If you kill someone, you might want to clean the scene carefully, but just stealing a dozen steel pipes, the amount involved is not even known to be one or two thousand yuan. If it is so hard, it is better to go to the factory to work. Night market is also fine.

Most importantly, doing so is not necessarily useful, and it may expose more information.

In contrast, how many high-end trace inspections can use footprint identification, and if you are slightly lucky, you will not encounter them.

And meeting Jiang Yuan, it is purely bad luck.

Jiang Yuan directly found the cases in Litang Township in the software background, and looked at those with footprint photos.

Finding people through footprints is quite troublesome, but conversely, if you have people's footprints first, and then compare them with photos, isn't the library problem solved.

If the Jin family is self-disciplined, usually doesn't do any sneaky things, and is not a perverted murderer, then Jiang Yuan is doing useless work.

Or change to someone whose footprint identification is not so strong, such as Chen Wenming, the footprint expert of Qinghe City's trace inspection, his identification of a footprint may have to be repeatedly checked with photos, then playing this set is a bit time-consuming.

But for Jiang Yuan, flipping through a footprint photo in ten seconds is just like that.

"Hey, caught one." In just half an hour, Jiang Yuan laughed.

The instructor who took the collected fingerprints just entered the door, looking at Jiang Yuan's smile, his heartbeat inexplicably slowed by half a beat. ===== CHAPTER 551 =====
