Chapter 624: The Second Case in Zhengguang

Jiang Yuan selected the Wan Long Garden sewer body abandonment case after browsing through dozens of cases.

He first paid attention to this case because he noticed a large amount of photo and video data, indicating that surveillance in that area was very dense.

For urban cases, if there is surveillance, cold cases are much easier to solve. Even if it was a homicide that wasn't solved at the time, now that the surveillance footage has been pulled out, at least in that regard, it is fresh.

And in the process of continuing to browse the photos, Jiang Yuan discovered some clues, which finally led him to decide to choose this case as the second case for the Cold Case Task Force at the Zhengguang Bureau.

After all, working in Jingcheng, there are countless talented people around, and who knows how many eyes are watching. Jiang Yuan felt he needed a clean and decisive homicide resolution.

The complexity of the "Bloody Clothes Case" was on the high side, and the process of handling the case had some unsatisfactory aspects. If it were put into Cantonese morning tea, it could at most be considered a "super dim sum," not a "beautiful dim sum."

Solving cases is often like fighting a war. If you win, you don't need to emphasize how strong the opponent was; they were defeated anyway. If you lose, you don't need to emphasize how strong the opponent was; you lost anyway.

Whether a victory is beautiful often depends on the battle damage ratio. No matter how elite the troops you lead are, winning against a force of disorganized mobs is still winning with fewer against more. Conversely, no matter what reason you have for losing, it's still a failure. Zhang Han at the end of the Qin Dynasty and Liu Xiu at the end of the Han Dynasty were both like this.

Solving cases also depends on the battle damage ratio. The losses here include expenses, and the time consumed is also very important.

Of course, normal "White Shirts" wouldn't have such thoughts. Most criminal police teams are just happy to solve a case. This is just Jiang Yuan's self-cultivation.

Conference room.

Wang Chuanxing and Mu Zhiyang spread the photos all over the table, arranging them neatly.

This was Jiang Yuan's traditional craft. He could see too many things from photos. By now, he couldn't describe to his subordinates what was needed; whatever there was, they just laid it out.

Liu "The Stench" Cheng lay in the corner with a resentful look. He was the main investigator of the Wan Long Garden sewer body abandonment case and knew the most about it. However, having been "marinated" in the smell, he just wanted to stay quietly for a while.

Because the person who would have to go back to investigate the sewer might still be him, and even though Comrade Liu Cheng was familiar with the smell in every cell, the smell of a sewer and the smell of a mountain of trash were not the same kind of smell.

"Liu Da," Jiang Yuan called out, holding a photo in his hand.

"Just call me Old Liu," Liu Cheng replied modestly. Not wanting to go to the scene was just a thought; his body still moved quickly to Jiang Yuan's side.

Jiang Yuan covered his nose, coughed twice in embarrassment, and said, "Let's talk about the case first."

"Okay. You speak." Liu Cheng obediently stepped back two paces.

Jiang Yuan handed the photo directly to Liu Cheng and added, "Look here, the photo of the deceased at the scene. When I saw your task force doing the case analysis, you thought there was a possibility of body relocation or robbery-homicide? I have a different opinion here."

Liu Cheng panicked inside for a moment, then instantly calmed down.

He panicked because he had made a mistake. Although making mistakes at work is the norm, making a mistake in solving a homicide and then being called out on it... However, since the one correcting him was Jiang Yuan, Liu Cheng felt fine again.

With Jiang Yuan's current status, perhaps there were still people in the bureau gossiping, but when it came to technology, in formal occasions, whether it was meetings or internal discussions, no one dared to ignore Jiang Yuan's judgment or treat it lightly.

In other words, Jiang Yuan's correction didn't matter; at the very least, he wouldn't be blamed for it. ===== CHAPTER 625 =====
