Chapter 973: Smooth

Jiang Yuan gathered his troops, brought Cui Cui Qishan and others, and went to Jianmen Academy for a secret inspection.

There is no shortage of talent in the criminal police of the Zheng-Guang Bureau. Strictly speaking, Cui Cui Qishan cannot be considered a talent. His shortcomings are too short.

Jiang Yuan is mainly familiar with Cui Cui Qishan. Furthermore, Cui Cui Qishan has the special skill of digging up corpses. In this headless case, any abnormality is a good thing.

Cui Cui Qishan attaches even more importance to abnormalities. Just kidding, Jiang Yuan wiped out a listed company to save his people—of course, in fact, there was no need for this in terms of "helping"—but this intention, Cui Cui Qishan had to accept.

Everyone was well prepared. When driving, the motorcade actually had more than 20 cars.

Cui Cui Qishan wished he could call the technical investigation team over.

With so many cars driving over together, it couldn't be called a secret inspection, so he specially arranged manpower and arranged for most of the vehicles to park in the nearby public parking lot.

Jiang Yuan had a total of two cars and 8 people, parking outside Jianmen Academy.

Jiang Yuan brought Mu Mu Zhiyang and Gao Gao Yuyan, Cui Cui Qishan brought his subordinate Li Jiang, a total of five people, and entered the Jianmen Academy residential complex without any obstacles.

Jianmen Academy is a residential complex of fifty years ago. Once a unit courtyard, because of institutional changes and the abolition of enterprises and public institutions, the residential complex has been completely handed over to society. Now, it is just a group of old buildings with lax access control and a superior geographical location.

"The incident happened in Building 2, the building on the right when you enter the door." Cui Cui Qishan had also read the case file in advance.

Jiang Yuan nodded, confirmed the address, and observed the surroundings.

The difficulty of the Jianmen Academy case lies in its simplicity.

There are 4 buildings in Jianmen Academy, all of which are five-story tube buildings, presenting a Z-shape, so they do not block each other. Building 2 is at the bottom right corner of the Z-shape, about 10 meters away from the courtyard wall.

The victim, Zhang Zhang Xiaoming, lived on the 4th floor of Building 2.

The structure and personnel of the tube building itself are also very simple.

The tube building is like a dormitory building. Each room is a rectangular room that goes straight in, with one or two small compartments divided inside, without a separate bathroom and kitchen.

The tube buildings of Jianmen Academy belong to the second generation of tube buildings. Each floor has two bathrooms, which are relatively large, and there are also two kitchens, which are relatively more spacious.

The stairs and corridors are like being hung outside the building, which is a long corridor, with stairs in the middle.

It can be said that the structure of Jianmen Academy is clear at a glance from inside to outside.

You can see the corridors upstairs and the people in the building from downstairs. If you stand in a good position, you can even see the people in the kitchen.

And the corridor is also straight. Whether you look from the stairs or one end of the corridor, you can see clearly who is in the corridor.

Furthermore, the Jianmen Academy of the 90s was a building built by the unit itself. Although there were some situations of changing houses, inheritance, and buying and selling, generally speaking, the residents in the whole courtyard were acquaintances. People in the same building were at least five-tenths familiar, and those on the same floor were more than seven-tenths familiar.

And the victim, Zhang Zhang Xiaoming, was killed. According to the forensic judgment at the time, it was about 10 o'clock in the morning. This time, although it was a relatively quiet time in the courtyard—most people went to work—there were family members at home after all.

However, after frequently visiting everyone in the courtyard, not a single eyewitness was found.

This made the investigation direction inevitably turn to the possibility of acquaintances committing crimes. Especially the residents on the 4th floor. Only these residents appearing in the corridor on the 4th floor would be the least eye-catching.

If there were outsiders with strange eyes, it would be impossible not to notice.

But the result obviously did not support the judgment of the special task force at the time.

Jiang Yuan and Cui Cui Qishan walked back and forth on the 4th floor of Building 2 several times, finally attracting the concern of an old lady.

"Which unit are you from?" The old lady looked to be only 60 years old, which is considered young in the building.

The personnel structure now is different from 20 years ago. In the same tube building, there are fewer people living, more strange personnel coming and going. Because there are no independent kitchens and bathrooms, the original residents have almost all moved away, and the new tenants change frequently, no longer having the grand occasion of being seven-tenths familiar on the same floor.

Cui Cui Qishan noticed the old lady's age and asked instead of answering: "Are you the owner of this building? Have you lived here before? Or did you buy the house later?"

"Who buys a house here? They are all waiting for renovation. They say renovation, but they don't renovate. Now wait for demolition." The old lady in Beijing is still very willing to explain her identity as an old BJ, and then said: "This house was allocated when my father was there. Later, my father left, and my brothers' conditions were good, so they gave this house to me. Now it is a school district house for my granddaughter. Eat a meal at noon, take a nap, and then take her home at night."

"This house is not renovated or demolished because of that case, right?" Cui Cui Qishan put forward a folk rumor.

The old lady's face changed: "I didn't think it was like that before, but now I feel it is possible. Hey, you say what does it have to do with us? The residential complex next door has installed elevators. Just because a homicide happened in our building, they said they wouldn't install it. Demolition is even more not to mention. We are in such a good location, why don't we demolish it..."

"Does it mean that the case hasn't been solved yet?"

"Who knows, it should not be solved."

"Did you live here when the case happened?"

"Live. Lived with my parents and brothers. My family also decided to buy a house after that time."

"Then what kind of person do you think the murderer is?"

The old lady didn't even think about it and said: "It's not impossible that it's a worker in the factory."

"En? Why?"

"Because Zhang Zhang Xiaoming shouted 'laid-off and re-employed.' Think about it, if you are a worker in the factory, are you willing to be laid off and re-employed? Many people wish they could stab him. Finally, wasn't he stabbed?"

"I remember that a few people were arrested at the time, saying they were the ones who shouted this." Cui Cui Qishan was recalling the case file.

The old lady said: "Zhang Zhang Xiaoming was stabbed to death during working hours. The workers were all at work. Where did they have time to stab him?" The old lady said and looked up, asking again: "Which unit are you from?"

"We are police!" When Cui Cui Qishan said this, he was smiling and serious, waiting to see the old lady's reaction.

"Are you going to do this case again?" The old lady's brows furrowed, and she was not as welcome as imagined.

Cui Cui Qishan was stunned: "Has anyone done this case before?"

"Aren't you doing it every few years? I have added several groups." The old lady said and looked at Cui Cui Qishan suspiciously: "Where is your ID?"

When the old lady in Beijing looks at you with a scrutinizing gaze, there is some pressure.

Cui Cui Qishan couldn't help but smile bitterly, took the ID for the old lady to see, and continued to ask questions.

Finally, he asked the person until she was annoyed, then caught a few passersby to ask, and finally checked the group the old lady mentioned.

They were all built by members of the previous special task force.

Cui Cui Qishan smiled bitterly and said: "It is estimated that like us, every few years, they secretly investigate, and they don't dare to start it with great fanfare. They just investigate privately first. It may be that they want to wait until they have collected evidence before reporting it to the top. Unfortunately, they have never collected evidence."

Cui Cui Qishan said it seriously, but the words were not pleasant.

Jiang Yuan nodded.

Cui Cui Qishan sighed and added: "Most of the members of the special task force who were in contact with this case back then have retired. Now, to do this case again, it mainly depends on the results of the interrogation. It also depends on the performance of the suspect."

What Cui Cui Qishan said was the normal process of solving a cold case of homicide.

For a case more than 20 years ago, most of the evidence has disappeared, so such a case is very much in need of the suspect's conscience discovery, or the report of the people around him is successful.

If the interrogation police can make the suspect directly confess, that is the most perfect. If it cannot be done, the suspect must also cooperate to say some information. If neither works, such a cold case is very difficult.

Therefore, Cui Cui Qishan places more hope on the owner of the fingerprint Jiang Yuan discovered.

Jiang Yuan shook his head slightly and said: "He may not necessarily confess. If he confesses, he is a homicide suspect. It is estimated that he did not kill the person."

The former, Cui Cui Qishan reserved his opinion, only asked the latter, saying: "How do you know that he did not kill the person?"

"Wang Wang Futing, that is, the suspect I matched, his fingerprints were left on the courtyard wall, and there was no blood on the courtyard wall. And judging from the victim's wounds and the position of falling to the ground, the victim resisted to a certain extent. If Wang Wang Futing participated in the murder, his clothes and hands would easily be stained with blood, and the courtyard wall could not be so clean."

"In this way, is this Wang Wang Futing still a complete outsider?" Cui Cui Qishan said and became irritable: "I said, it is impossible for things to go so smoothly!" ===== CHAPTER 974 =====
