Chapter 812

That day, Jiang Yuan did not select a case.

The "Drowning Case of Member of Parliament Lun En" was a case from the year before last. The Malaysian police invested a lot of manpower and material resources for this, and it was restarted once last year and this year, but it was never solved in the end.

On the bright side, the evidence collected for this case is relatively standardized, the quantity of evidence is large, the quality is high, and since the case began to be investigated, there has been no record of relevant personnel dying, whether it was an accidental death or a natural death...

Based on the experience of Cui Xiaohu and Chu Guanliang, who often come into contact with political cases, the safety of this kind of case is already relatively high, and it may not even involve politics much.

Of course, that's what they thought, but the two still reported to their respective superiors.

Jiang Yuan was the same. After notifying Huang Qiangmin, he went to eat durian with peace of mind.

There is no need to be so anxious about doing things. Given the current judicial structure in Malaysia, the process and time from the arrest of a suspect to sentencing and final judgment are very long. Three to five years can be said to be relatively fast.

Looking at it from this dimension, Jiang Yuan solving a homicide case in a few days not only makes Nicha excited but also easily overwhelms him.

Jiang Yuan simply took everyone out to play for a day. At noon the next day, Huang Qiangmin flew over on an early flight.

"Has anyone looked for you?" Huang Qiangmin asked as soon as they met.

Jiang Yuan and the others looked at each other and shook their heads.

"No one has been inexplicably injured, had a car accident, or received strange letters or phone calls, right?" Huang Qiangmin counted on his fingers and said a string of them in one breath.

"No." Wang Chuanxing answered affirmatively.

"Oh, that's fine." Huang Qiangmin paused and then said, "The ministry leadership's opinion is that it is very necessary to do some influential cases, but it should be based on criminal technical investigation, focusing as much as possible on the case itself."

The criminal cases Jiang Yuan did before basically avoided politics, but it must be said that some criminal cases are inseparable from political events. For example, several famous presidential assassination cases in the United States, or the Little Kennedy rape case, or the Chen Tuyuan shooting case on a certain island, or some major cases in ancient China, such as the four strange cases of the Ming Dynasty, are all criminal cases within political events. And such cases are a huge test for the handlers.

Although criminal cases in political cases are mainly political, the factual basis of the criminal case itself cannot be ignored. Sometimes, it directly determines the direction.

After Huang Qiangmin fully communicated with his superiors, Jiang Yuan had no objections. He packed up and headed to the Malaysian police station.

Accompanying him, in addition to the previous group of people, was a staff member sent by the embassy who joined in the middle.

Having called ahead, they entered the police station and saw that it was already full of all kinds of people, not only police officers in police uniforms but also government civil servants in suits, as well as figures who were clearly not civil servants.

"Just from this formation, we have indeed received high attention from the police station." Cui Xiaohu followed closely by Jiang Yuan's side, also with a serious expression.

Chu Guanliang laughed and accompanied him, saying, "Lun En was a veteran member of parliament here and had intricate connections with all parties. Some people wanted him to live, some wanted him to die, and at the time, many people might have had ideas. Now that two years have passed, many people really just want the truth."

"Because the truth can let us see the true faces of many people." The embassy staff member who joined halfway through said at this time, and added, "We not only want to see what they say, but also see what they do."

"Then let's see." Jiang Yuan didn't have that many thoughts, and he couldn't manage that much.

From the perspective of Jiang Yuan at this time, solving the case was actually a simpler job.

If nothing else, just looking at the vast number of people around and their complex origins and attitudes made people frown uncontrollably.

"I'll go into the room to look at the case." Jiang Yuan only said this to Nicha and Zhong Renlong.

Zhong Renlong hurriedly agreed and said, "Team Leader Jiang, if there are results, call us first."

"Must pay attention to confidentiality." Nicha also reminded.

Jiang Yuan frowned: "If you need to pay attention to confidentiality, why didn't you wait until the case investigation was over before notifying others?"

Nicha sighed helplessly and said: "The people who came were not notified by us. Uh... to tell the truth, I know who leaked the secret, but the Lun En drowning case indeed has a lot of people paying attention. If we forcibly refuse them, it doesn't necessarily mean there will be benefits."

Jiang Yuan curled his lips. Although he didn't understand, he could understand.

Nicha coughed twice and hurriedly remedied: "Actually, Team Leader Jiang, you are very suitable for this case because your speed of investigating cases is very fast. If you can have results before all parties react, that would be the best. In fact, when we restarted this case last time, we didn't encounter any obstruction in the initial stage. However, as time dragged on, the strength of all parties gradually formed obstacles..."

"You are urging our Team Leader Jiang to handle the case quickly." Chu Guanliang said with a smile in Malay, and Zhong Renlong translated from the side.

Jiang Yuan also said in Malay (Indonesian): "Handling the case quickly is not a problem. From the perspective of criminal science, this case is not very complex. The key lies in whether you can firmly complete the investigation task and ensure quality."

Jiang Yuan's LV2 Indonesian is very clear in daily expression.

Nicha hurriedly agreed.

Jiang Yuan shook his head: "What I require is not an investigation interview in the ordinary sense. My requirement is that the investigation targets who meet the standards must be brought back to the police station for comprehensive inspection and evidence collection before formal questioning or even interrogation."

The expressions of Nicha and the others gradually became serious.

Not only the Chinese police like to use investigation, but foreign countries also like to use it. It is heard less often now because they can gradually no longer afford it.

For Nicha and the others, Member of Parliament Lun En drowned in his own swimming pool, and on the night of the incident, Lun En's family held a party. Not to mention that there were many guests, and the guests each had their own status. The so-called "no commoners among the visitors" refers to this kind of place.

If it were just an investigation interview, Nicha and the others would have no problem, and the various figures involved would probably be relatively cooperative. However, bringing them back to the police station for questioning is a different matter. Some people might directly call a lawyer and sit there without saying a word until the police lose patience.

"How many people do you need to bring back?" Nicha asked.

"Let's screen them first." Jiang Yuan entered the conference room, placed several pictures on the table, and said, "There are many footprints by the swimming pool. However, according to the autopsy report, the murderer pressed the victim's head into the water, causing him to drown. In this case, the murderer's footprints are left by the pool, and there will be signs of exertion."

Jiang Yuan said while putting several photos out separately.

Nicha hurriedly asked: "What if the murderer handled the footprints, such as by sweeping the floor or flushing with water..."

"There will be traces left." Jiang Yuan pointed to the case file and said, "Currently, no one has handled the footprints by the pool, and no one has cleaned the area near the pool. The cleaner found Lun En's body the next morning before starting work, and then called the police."

"So..." Nicha couldn't help licking his lips and looked at Jiang Yuan expectantly.

"So, we can determine that there is one and only one footprint that belongs to the murderer." Jiang Yuan pushed the photos in front of him. There are large pictures from a bird's-eye view, as well as photos of individual footprints, which can be seen very clearly.

The technical personnel of this case also originally had several sets of footprints that were suspected to be the murderer's. However, they could only consider factors such as the distance from the swimming pool and could not see or determine the degree of force and the direction of force of the footprints. This made it impossible to determine the unique footprint, so it could not play a role in screening people during the investigation stage, and it was estimated that it would be easy to make mistakes in court later.

Jiang Yuan not only didn't need to do this, but after screening out the footprints, he then said: "From this footprint, the murderer is about 170 cm tall, 168 to 172 cm, and weighs about 70 kg. Male, aged about 33 to 38, physically strong, with great arm strength, and high stability. He has a foundation of long-term exercise."

Compared with the previous judgment, Jiang Yuan's judgment this time can be called conservative. Even so, using this standard to screen the guest list, family list, and staff list, the remaining people are few enough.

The uneasy Nicha suddenly felt confident, and even felt a little regret in his heart: If you had said it earlier, I wouldn't have had to ponder like this.
