"After identification by the policeman handling the case at the time, he determined that the photo recovered in our co-investigation notice was that of the masseur, Zhou Lin. In addition, in addition to Outside Zhou Lin, There have been about three reports of missing women in Huangxu City in recent years, but no one was found alive or dead. "
This news is like a ray of light in the fog for everyone who has no clue. , everyone became excited instantly.
Zhao Donglai said even more excitedly, "Immediately contact the police over there and ask them to send you Zhou Lin's detailed information, as well as all the police records and visit records when she disappeared."
"In addition, let them notify the family members of these missing women to take time to come to our place for a DNA test."
The faces of these corpses have been unrecognizable, and DNA identification technology can only be used to determine whether they belong to these missing persons.
Soon, all of Zhou Lin’s information was sent over.
Zhou Lin, female, 25 years old, from Huangxu City, Anyuan Province, is married and has a son and a daughter with her husband.
Her husband Xu Yuan is a tower crane on the construction site, while Zhou Lin works as a technician in a foot massage club, and her parents-in-law are responsible for taking care of their two children.
Because raising two children is quite stressful, the couple usually work very hard, especially Zhou Lin. In order to earn commission from more customers, she usually works until two or three in the morning before getting off work.
On the morning of March 25 this year, after her mother-in-law returned from sending her two children to school, she found that the food left on the dining table had not been touched.
Because Zhou Lin usually got up in the morning, finished her meal, and then went back to catch up on her sleep. The old man thought she had overslept, so he planned to wake her up and finish her meal before going to bed.
No one answered the knock on the door. After pushing the door open, I discovered that she had never come back last night.
Although there is a staff dormitory where Zhou Lin works, Zhou Lin has never lived there. She usually goes home to rest no matter how late she works.
So her mother-in-law felt a little strange. She wanted to call her to ask but she kept saying that the phone was turned off, so she called her son.
Xu Yuan's construction site is far from home, so he usually lives on the construction site.
After receiving the call from his mother, he didn't take it seriously at first. He just called a colleague of Zhou Lin who was better at playing, but the other party told him that Zhou Lin got off work at around 1 o'clock last night. Go home.
Xu Yuan realized that something was wrong and immediately rushed back to call the police.
The police then conducted a careful survey of the route Zhou Lin took to work and home, and also obtained surveillance videos along the way. As a result, they found that after Zhou Lin passed a traffic light intersection, she then went to the next intersection. There was no trace of her again.
At that time, the police concluded that she should have been abducted between these two intersections.
But the police searched that section of the road and found no useful clues.
The case is suspended.
"How about it, what do you think after reading this transcript?"
In the office, Zhao Donglai stared at Luo Fei expectantly.
“As a single woman, returning home late at night, there are too many possibilities of being kidnapped. The murderer can be impromptu or premeditated, and it is difficult to tell whether it is an acquaintance or a stranger. .”
Luo Fei analyzed it by himself, and then said, "Captain Zhao, can you show us the records of Zhou Lin's family at that time?"
Zhao Donglai immediately clicked on another document, which was exactly The police over there sent transcripts and photos of Zhou Lin’s family and colleagues.
The first one belonged to Zhou Lin’s husband Xu Yuan.
At that time, Zhou Lin disappeared, and the police also suspected whether an acquaintance committed the crime in revenge, and there were also related questions in the transcript.
But Xu Yuan’s answer denied the police’s speculation.
He said that his wife Zhou Lin has a gentle and easy-going personality and rarely gets grudges with others. She is even less likely to have any enemies in her daily life, so there should be no such situation.
Other relatives of Zhou Lin also proved this. Excluding the reason for enmity, the police speculated whether the other party was because of emotional entanglements.
Because Zhou Lin is very beautiful and young, she has always been a very popular technician in their store. According to her colleagues, many customers come and ask for her service every time. .
After that, the police started with Zhou Lin's private life and focused on investigating the men who had close contact with her and her regular customers.
But after going around, they discovered that Zhou Lin and Xu Yuan's relationship was actually very good, and there were no problems in her private life.
Moreover, on the night of the crime, most of these regular customers had alibi or no motive for committing the crime.
After several people carefully studied these transcripts, Luo Fei slowly spoke.
“From this point of view, it is now basically certain that a stranger should have committed the crime, but we do not rule out that the other party had premeditated it.”
“After all, the nature of Zhou Lin’s work is somewhat special. In addition, her mother-in-law said that she gets off work very late every night and basically follows a fixed route from work to home. "
" After a long time, it is not impossible to be noticed by others, so now we must first focus on the place where she disappeared and mobilize all available surveillance cameras in the surrounding road sections to determine where the suspect is. Where were they kidnapped? How were they kidnapped? Or maybe the other party was from that area.”
"Your analysis makes sense, but the local police must have thought about such a simple problem at the time. Since they still didn't find anything in the end, it means that this method may not work."
"This is not necessarily true. , The murderer can’t disappear into thin air with a big living person.”
“And now the main roads in the city are blocked. There is surveillance. No matter how the murderer leaves, he will definitely leave some clues. The local police did not find it, which only means that they may have ignored some details."
"I believe we just need to do more research. "It's impossible to find clues."
Luo Fei finished speaking confidently, and the others were convinced.
If they can really find clues from the surveillance, they can save a lot of trouble.
Liao Xingyu stood up directly, "Then I will go to Huangxu City immediately and copy back all the surveillance of the surrounding road sections!"
It has only been more than two months since the incident, and generally this kind of The monitoring of road sections is cleared only once every three months.
The time is naturally enough.
After saying that, Liao Xingyu immediately set off with Zhou Qian from the second group.
After he left, several people continued to discuss the case.
Li Jundao, "I have another question. Zhou Lin disappeared in Huangxu City. Why was her body found in our river in the end?"
Let's not talk about Huang first. Xu was in the downstream direction of Jiangzhou. It could be seen from the stones tied to the corpse that the salvage site was the first corpse dumping site.
“There are two explanations for this situation. One is that the murderer is from Huangxu City. He just wanted to avoid the sight of the local police, so he came to our place to dump the body after the murder. To confirm this, we need to Determine whether the other deceased people are all from Huangxu City. "
"Another possibility is that the murderer is from Jiangzhou City, but the nature of his work should be that he usually travels to Huangxu City, or from Huangxu City to Huangxu City. Between multiple cities ”
"Why do you think the murderer often travels between multiple cities?" Zhao Donglai asked.
"It's very simple. We have verified before that there have been no missing women in Jiangzhou City in the past two years, which means that these deceased people are most likely not from this city." "This is why the murderer dares to be so bold Bodies are dumped many times in the same place, because no one is missing in this city, and even if these bodies are found, it will be difficult for the police to trace them.”
“But under normal circumstances, even if a person wants to kill someone, it is impossible for him to go to another city to kidnap people, kill them, and then bring them back and dump the bodies.”
“This will not only increase the The workload and the risk of exposure are also high. Because he is not familiar with the unfamiliar city, it is difficult for him to determine where there is surveillance and where there is no surveillance. ”
"But judging from the circumstances of Zhou Lin's abduction, the other party was very familiar with the road conditions, so he could easily take Zhou Lin away without being found by the police."
Zhao Donglai followed him When I thought about it, I found it very reasonable.
I heard Luo Fei continue, "In addition, based on the suitcase and backpack used to carry the body, I think the murderer's economic conditions should be average, so that we can be more effective when investigating this type of work. Narrow the scope a little bit.”
“Well, this is indeed a clue. Then, we will follow the direction of Luo Fei’s analysis and investigate which ones meet this type of characteristics. For some work, remember to make a copy of the surveillance video from the week after March 25th on the road where the body was dumped. "You can also check the suitcase and backpack containing the body, especially." It’s the box that contained Zhou Lin. He was killed not long ago. According to the style of the box, go to the stores that sell the same boxes and see if you can find any traces of the murderer.”
After Zhao Donglai made some arrangements, everyone immediately went down and split up.
Subsequently, reports came from Wuyang City, which is adjacent to them. There were also reports of missing four women there, but no one was found alive or dead.
This number combined with Huang Xushi’s disappearance is almost the same as the number of corpses fished out of the river.
But Zhao Donglai did not dare to arbitrarily conclude that they were the ones who were killed, so he could only ask the other party to send the alarm records for verification first, and also notify the families of the missing persons to take time to do an appraisal.
In this way, everyone was busy until five o'clock in the afternoon.
Considering that everyone stayed up all night last night, Zhao Donglai asked everyone to go back and have a good night's rest before continuing to investigate the case tomorrow.
Luo Fei had a meal in the cafeteria. After returning to the dormitory, he called Wu Yan and Yang Mei respectively, and then took an early rest.
When we went to work the next day, everyone was resurrected with full health.
Not long after, Liao Xingyu and Liao Xingyu, who had gone to Huangxu City to copy and monitor, also came back, bringing Zhou Lin's parents and her husband Xu Yuan with them.
When they heard that a body suspected to be Zhou Lin's was found here, the three of them looked very sad.
Zhou Lin's body was not only torn into pieces, but was also broken into pieces by the water. He was worried that they would not be able to accept it, so he did not let them identify the body.
Zhao Tian personally collected blood samples from Zhou Lin’s parents and planned to conduct a paternity test with Zhou Lin’s broken body.
After that, the police team made a simple record of the three people, and got a brief understanding of Zhou Lin's daily life and before she disappeared.
The statements of the three people are basically the same as before.
After they left, Zhao Donglai called everyone together again.
"Although we are still not sure that the female corpse we picked up is Zhou Lin herself, this is the biggest clue at present, so we can only follow this clue to investigate first. Now everyone can talk about what they discovered yesterday."
Luo Fei spoke first.
“After we went down yesterday, we did a simple search and found that there are many jobs that can frequently travel between several cities, such as delivery workers, salesmen, taxi drivers, hawkers... After investigation, I’m afraid It will take some time."
Liao Xingyu also said, "I went with Zhou Qian yesterday to bring back all the surveillance on the section where Zhou Lin disappeared. In addition, I We also interviewed her colleagues, and their opinions were basically the same as those in the transcript. "
"We visited several suitcase sellers in the city yesterday, and they all said that they had never sold this kind of suitcase. "Because the workmanship of the box is very rough and it looks like a product purchased online or sold in a wholesale market, so we plan to go to the wholesale market again today," Li Jun said.
Finally, it was Zhou Fan. He said, "The surveillance of the corpse dumping section and several intersections from Huangxu City to Jiangzhou City have also been copied back. We already watched part of it yesterday, but no suspicious people have been found yet. Or a car.”
Wait for a few people to finish reporting.
"Then today everyone will continue to pursue the same direction as yesterday. Liao Xingyu, today your team will take a look at the surveillance of the section where Zhou Lin disappeared and try to identify suspicious vehicles."
Zhao Donglai Finished, thought about it He added, "At present, we are not sure how the murderer transported the body, so Lin Hua, you will take the comrades from the police dog squadron to visit places such as bus stations and train stations."
"Close to.”
"Then let's all go down and get busy."
The next day, everyone watched the surveillance and visited, and they were so busy.
The family members of the missing persons also came to the police one after another after receiving the notification.
Zhao Tian drew their blood, made a brief note, and went back to wait for news.
It was already four o'clock in the morning when Zhou Lin's paternity test results came out.
When Zhao Donglai received the call, he was still in a daze.
He and everyone worked overtime until eleven o'clock last night.
It wasn't until he heard Zhao Tian saying on the other end that the results were out that he woke up with a start.
"What's the result?"
"Through comparison and analysis of the blood of the deceased and Zhou Lin's parents, it can be determined that the deceased is Zhou Lin."
"Okay, okay, I understand."
Hearing this, Zhao Donglai was very excited.
Because the deceased is confirmed to be Zhou Lin, that means there is no problem with the direction of their current investigation.
After hanging up the phone, he fell asleep for a few more hours.
He arrived at the police station at seven o'clock in the morning.
During the past few days of investigating the case, everyone arrived earlier, but the first one was still Luo Fei.
The first thing Zhao Donglai did after arriving was to call everyone to the conference room with Zhou Lin's DNA identification report.
“The identification report on the suspected corpse of Zhou Lin came out last night. It can be confirmed that the deceased was Zhou Lin herself, which means that our previous detection was not wrong. Now let’s review the case again.”
"Zhou Lin disappeared on March 25th. On July 16th, which is the weekend, we found the broken body suspected of Zhou Lin."
