Chapter 934: For What

"Lang Detachment Leader has a big hand."

Su Shanming and others hung the sign of the 4303 special case group in front of the temporary office on the third floor of the criminal police detachment, implying that this was the third reorganization of the 430 special case group.

The number is an internal temporary number, but the scale of this reorganization still surprised Su Shanming and others.

The scale of the special case group 10 years ago was not small, but the key is that after 10 years of development, many small characters from back then have now become detachment leaders, station masters, section chiefs, etc. Finding these people back, not to mention whether it is troublesome or not, has a not small impact on the personnel allocation of the police station.

Lang Heng could endure such pressure, which also showed from one side how much he valued this case. Similarly, even the small characters from back then knew that Lang Detachment Leader was playing for real.

Ling Han, who is also a detachment leader, "Pa" lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said: "I don't know how long it will take. The cases in our team are still piling up."

"Really? Then find Team Leader Jiang to do it." Su Shanming fanned the wind with his hand, and finally helplessly lit a cigarette. He couldn't be poisoned by secondhand smoke.

Ling Han laughed: "No need, we'd better run with our own iron feet. The case can always be solved. Hey, I'll line up in front of you to speak later. After speaking, I'm in a hurry to go back."

"Fine." Su Shanming was indeed the one who was least in a hurry. His task was to lead the team to follow Jiang Yuan. Jiang Yuan's task here could not be completed, so his task could not be considered finished. Unlike Ling Han and others, who were in a hurry to go back to do their own things.

After a while, Liu Liu Jinghui rushed over. Seeing so many people on the scene, he apologized repeatedly, took out a pack of Soft Zhonghua cigarettes that he had accumulated earlier, distributed them to everyone, and then Liu Liu Jinghui began to hold a symposium with everyone.

For the case 10 years ago, some people might still have fresh memories, but some people might have forgotten it.

Everyone's joys and sorrows are not the same, and the criminal police are no exception.

For the 430 case, most people still had considerable impressions, but to say that they could draw conclusions from this information was too advanced.

Liu Liu Jinghui could only listen and record, until the evening, before letting everyone leave one after another.

"How is it?" Huang Huang Qiangmin and Lang Heng were full of expectations.

"The information is too little, and no effective conclusions can be drawn for the time being." Liu Liu Jinghui shrugged and said: "The existing information has basically been investigated by the special case group. Now that it is being investigated again, I am afraid it will not make any sense."

Liu Liu Jinghui said here, looked at Huang Huang Qiangmin, and said: "There are many people involved in this case. To restart the investigation now, we still have to work hard on the people involved."

"We did investigate all the routes we could think of back then... How do you want to work hard on the people involved?" Lang Heng was not afraid of Liu Liu Jinghui making requests, but was more afraid that he had no ideas.

"The most important thing is naturally the surviving little boy. If he is 18 years old now, has he recalled any other information?" Liu Liu Jinghui asked.

"He is indeed actively communicating with us, but his memory of the year has now become inaccurate." Su Shanming was left behind and also actively participated in the discussion.

Liu Liu Jinghui: "How to say?"

Su Shanming couldn't help but look at Lang Heng.

Detachment Captain Lang Heng waved his hand: "There's nothing that can't be said about this, and it's not like we taught him to do it this way."

Su Shanming then said: "Actually, there's nothing novel about it. The surviving boy has been in frequent contact with us over these years, and we've actually taken some statements from him. He has also done a lot of investigations himself and even discussed the relevant case details with people on specialized forums... So, you can see from the statements that he has been fabricating more and more information over the past few years."

At this, Jiang Yuan also walked over and said in surprise, "How can you be sure the information is fabricated?"

"There are many reasons. The things he has said in recent years have contradictions, and some clearly do not match the facts we understand. Furthermore, we also saw from his phone that he has some chat and browsing records, which shows that some of the things he said were processed from information obtained on forums. The story he fabricated isn't very clever either." Su Shanming looked at Lang Heng again and continued: "We found a psychology expert for him. How should I put it? Relative to what he has been through, it belongs to a normal phenomenon."

After Su Shanming finished speaking, Lang Heng added: "Although there are fabricated components in his later testimony, we basically accept his testimony after the incident. Besides, the facts of the case have not changed."

Liu Liu Jinghui listened and was stunned for a moment, but then he smiled and said: "If that's the case, the problem is actually simplified."

"How so?" Several people looked over.

"The credibility of the survivor's testimony has been greatly reduced, so we won't consider this part for the time being." Liu Liu Jinghui's fingers drew two lines randomly on the tabletop, then he added: "Let's focus on the factual part."

Several people showed an appearance of listening intently.

Liu Liu Jinghui used tea to draw a "one" on the tabletop and said: "First, the two deceased: one is an adult woman, and one is her 14-year-old daughter. Both already had a certain ability to resist. What means did the perpetrator use to kill them together in one room without leaving behind major signs of struggle?"

Liu Liu Jinghui: "Generally speaking, this kind of situation is accompanied by threats. Using weapons to threaten, coercion with a murder weapon, etc., are relatively common. Secondly, it could also be beating and attacking. Thirdly, a gang composed of multiple people. Fourthly, a lack of conditions and routes for escape..."

Liu Liu Jinghui spoke roughly and then added: "Both deceased were strangled to death. Although we cannot infer from this whether the perpetrator carried a murder weapon, the perpetrator must have had an advantage in physique and physical strength. Otherwise, strangling two women separately would also have a certain degree of difficulty. Was it the same person who strangled them?"

Liu Liu Jinghui asked Jiang Yuan the last sentence.

Jiang Yuan nodded: "There is a high probability it was the same person who strangled them."

People leave traces when they die. Although some traces cannot lead to the perpetrator, the identity can be determined between two traces.

Liu Liu Jinghui nodded and said: "Therefore, considering all angles, the perpetrator was absolutely dominant, at least in terms of force."

Everyone nodded one after another; this conclusion was relatively easy to convince people.

"Secondly, there is one point I think we can discuss." Liu Liu Jinghui drew a "two" with tea on the tabletop again and said: "The two victims were of above-average appearance. Under the circumstance that the perpetrator had an absolute advantage in force and completely controlled the two victims, why didn't they commit rape? There wasn't even any molestation behavior?"

Several people raised their eyelids. Because the victims were already dead, if the perpetrator had used means such as molestation, there would have been a high possibility of leaving bruises.

As for Liu Liu Jinghui's logic—why must something happen just because they were controlled... if this topic were discussed on public social media, it would definitely be scolded to death. But from the perspective of criminal investigation, are burglars who break into homes really limited to theft?

Why does the law punish burglary so heavily? It is because burglary is very easily converted into robbery, rape, and murder. There is no need to mince words: those who commit burglary are thieves, but they are definitely not "righteous thieves." They fundamentally choose to take advantage of a weakness. They enter if they see the house is easy to enter; they steal if they can; if they can't steal, they rob; if their desires rise, they rape; if the resistance is too strong, they kill.

And in prison, at least half of the chat content of all kinds of criminals revolves around sex.

"If the suspect is considered to be the father, this point naturally doesn't need to be discussed." Liu Liu Jinghui didn't pause for too long before saying: "However, if we exclude the father as a suspect now, we can't help but ask: what was the purpose of the perpetrator entering the house? They stole a small amount of property and controlled the mother and daughter, but did not commit rape, and possibly didn't even molest them, and then they killed the mother and daughter... Why? What was their purpose?"

At this, the few people present all fell into deep thought.

Lang Heng couldn't help but nod: "This question is well asked. If they were after money, they didn't get much, but they could have just walked away. As for resistance, the mother hid the son, and there were no signs of fierce resistance at the scene... Could it be purely for the sake of killing people? But..."

He made a "hiss" sound and didn't continue.

Su Shanming spoke for him: "If it was for the sake of killing people, then we are back to the previous 'crime of passion.' We have also investigated this aspect carefully..."

"The daughter was also 14 years old. Has the situation around the daughter been investigated?" Liu Liu Jinghui's finger drew another stroke.
