Chapter 171 Important clues to serial thinking! 'Grasp! ’
A wise saying in criminal investigation is, ‘Every action leaves a trace! ’
Many people always think that if some traces are removed manually, no one will know, or if they are done secretly, no clues will be left.
But in fact, this sentence has limited all cases.
This is true even for the current case!
Let’s give an example.
The luminol reagent reacts with the components in the blood and emits a light blue light. The components of the blood can be clearly seen. The police can use these fluorescence to judge the sputtering of blood, so as to think about the murder weapon and the fighting process. to get clues.
But here comes the problem, Luminol can only react once.
If you kill someone and use luminol to clean it once, the blood will not react and the fluorescence will naturally not be visible, let alone grasp clues.
But
‘Every action must leave traces! ’
Have you ever wondered how many people know that luminol reagent can clear a crime scene?
How many people know how to prepare this kind of reagent?
What about raw materials? What about matching instruments? Or should I buy the reagents directly?
Don’t wait until the purchase record is posted on your face before you know you are afraid!
As soon as the police saw that there was a fight but no blood at the murder scene, they were able to immediately locate the thing or wash the ingredients and other things. However, with the speed of the Internet in the previous life, everyone around them was wiped out within a few hours
This is a way of expression of ‘traces’.
You have cleaned up the traces of the crime scene, but the traces have not completely disappeared, but have transformed into other places in another form.
"The same is true for Wang Chao."
"The murderer cut off some clues for the investigation of the case. This clue is very fatal and can lead directly to the final node of the case."
"On the surface, it looks like the case has fallen into an absolute stalemate once the chain of clues is broken, but in fact, this is a clue in itself."
"The clue is that it verifies the previous thinking and gives the theory a basis."
“For now, we just need to build on this”
Xu Hao's voice sounded slowly.
At this time, he stood at the door of a hospital, looking at the cold, busy hospital in front of him, which smelled of disinfectant.
"Add a few special filter tags to it to determine the other party's identity information!"
The traces are often mutual.
Just like when you take a step forward, a footprint will be left behind.
Whatever the deceased had done against the murderer, or what those who collaborated with the deceased had done, traces would definitely be visible on the other person's body!
As for what can't be seen, it's just the spirit.
Mental torture can completely destroy a person, but mental torture is never the first choice for such buyers.
Why?
Because the spirit will only weaken the soul and cause the body to weaken.
Whether it's a black kiln factory, a drug test on human subjects, or even a so-called elixir.
These are all things that need to be based on the body, and there is no way to specifically torture the mind.
Therefore, the buyer’s effect on the murderer
It can only be physical, that is, an act of beating!
Think of this.
Without saying too much, he quickened his pace and walked quickly towards the hospital.
It was getting late now, it was already ten o'clock in the evening, and they had to rush to rest.
Criminal investigators still need to ensure that they are rested. Unless they have the same physique as Xu Hao, it will do more harm than good.
"Room 404"
The two of them searched around the ward, and finally stopped in front of a flash ward.
“Tuk tuk tuk~”
There was a knock on the door, and the next second, the ward door in front of him was pushed open.
"Who is it? Brother Hao?"
Wang Chao opened the door, thinking he was a doctor, but he didn't expect to see a familiar face.
He was stunned for a moment, then his face showed surprise, and his eyes were filled with emotion.
"Brother, are you here specifically to visit me? In fact, I am injured"
"Well, as long as the injury is not serious."
Xu Hao waved his hand to disperse the other party's emotion.
"Tell me everything you saw about the murderer's appearance that night."
In the end, the case was lost
Wang Chao muttered something in his heart, and after thinking for a moment, he said:
“I didn’t see much, that’s all I said when I was in the office.”
"Almost?"
Xu Hao frowned. Although the other party talked a lot when he was in the office, it was different from what he wanted now.
He pondered for a moment and then said:
"During the thundering period, did you see clearly any injuries on the other party's body?"
Wang Chao thought about it and then shook his head.
"No, so far I only see animals around him and the monkey charmer."
“But the monkey charmer kept his back to me and couldn’t see clearly what his body looked like.”
Back to
It’s difficult.
"Is there any slope on the body when walking?"
Xu Hao asked again.
"There is a little bit of swaying, but not much. I'm not sure whether it's caused by the slope or normal walking."
"Did the monkey see any clear traces?"
"Monkeys can't see anything. Apart from being spiritual, they can't see any difference from other monkeys."
Wang Chao shook his head again.
Can't see clearly.
As long as the person behind the deceased applies his torture to the murderer, then the murderer will inevitably have corresponding scars.
But.
Just can't see clearly.
The night in early January was terrifyingly dark and rainy, and the only moonlight was shrouded in dark clouds.
Only when one or two rays of lightning appear in an instant can one glance at the other person through the paleness.
"Where are the rest of the animals?"
Xu Hao thought for a moment and frowned.
The murderer brought many animals with him. The animals were very obedient, and it was like he had a zoo with him.
"It seems...a little hurt?"
Wang Chao spoke suspiciously, thought for a moment, then shook his head and said: "It's really too far away, people can't see clearly, let alone talk about this"
"Besides the Monkey Charmer, is there anyone else?"
"Yes, there are a few vague shadows, but they are hidden on the side of the team. I can't see them. I can only see human figures."
Wang Chao shook his head.
Can't see it
Human experiments?
Xu Hao pondered for a moment, and images of this kind appeared in his mind.
"Do you have any children?"
"No."
"Tsk, it's broken."
Xu Hao took a deep breath and frowned.
Is it better to have children or not to have children?
Of course there is.
If so, then at least it can be seen that the other party is still alive!
If not
Either there is no way to escape, or there is no longer any need to escape.
It's easy to say that the former is still alive, but the latter is probably dead.
"Can you command animals?"
Xu Hao felt a little headache. He was most annoyed by people who seemed to have special powers.
Completely different from conventional investigation, cases always present themselves in unexpected ways.
Give an example.
Like the accident maker.
It's the kind in the movie where you use your brain to calculate the probability of an accident and then create an accident for you.
For example, the brakes fail, or the electricity in the home leaks and catches fire.
Once it happens, how will the police investigate?
If they cannot be found, most of them will be judged as normal accidents and the cases will be closed hastily.
"What about anesthesia? Has the hospital found anything?"
After being unable to think of anything for a while, Xu Hao looked up at the surrounding hospitals.
They started waiting for the test report around noon, but unfortunately it hasn't come yet.
"Not checked out."
Wang Chao shook his head, "The doctor said that the medicine the other party used should be the medicine he prepared himself. The medicine is weak and metabolized quickly. When he went to the hospital for examination, its ingredients could no longer be detected."
After being metabolized throughout the night, even if it is a normal anesthetic, it may be time to wake up at this time.
Not to mention that I configured it myself.
Maybe it would have been metabolized in the middle of the night, and Wang Chao was just sleeping.
"Tsk."
Xu Hao shook his head and then looked at Wang Chao in front of him.
"Then you rest first. If there is anything strange about your body later, remember to contact the doctor in time."
"Okay."
Wang Chao nodded.
After saying that, Xu Hao turned around and left, but he didn't go very far.
He pushed open the door of the ward, took two steps, and then sat on a public chair to rest.
Things about the case were turning over and over in his mind, as if there were countless villains arguing in his mind, making a lot of noise.
Xu Hao rubbed his eyebrows, feeling a little annoyed.
"Squeak~"
Li Jianye sat down next to him, and the iron chair suddenly creaked.
"Monkey Charmer."
"Based on the time when Zhao Shan and others disappeared, this group of people should have only been in Jiangsan City for about a month."
"The Chu Bureau will use the methods of the lower class to investigate, and there is a high probability that nothing will be found."
"The files are still being checked, but be mentally prepared."
Li Jianye wanted to smoke a cigarette, but when he saw doctors and patients surrounding him, he paused for a moment and stuffed the cigarette back into the cigarette case.
He chirped and added:
"There are too many files and it is impossible to find them in a short time."
"Unless a lot of time is given, I can't guarantee where the murderer will be by then."
The police have too many files on trafficking.
Especially during that time period twenty years ago, the number of cases discovered at one time was mind-numbing.
In addition, these cases are all handled without investigation, and the information of the abducted persons cannot be determined. Nothing can be found out at all with such vagueness.
"No, I'm not worried about this. Sima Kong's identity proves my previous guess in disguise."
"As for speculation, these people must be extremely cautious. It is normal that they cannot be found in the files."
Xu Hao shook his head, not caring about this.
What he cares about is.
"By what means was the murderer tortured?"
"I only care about this!"
Li Jianye paused and then became speechless.
Because as long as this is found out, the case is not far away from being solved.
Why?
Why is it possible to solve a case just by seeing the injuries on the murderer's body?
Let’s not talk about anything else.
Just knowing that the other party's physical injuries are incomplete is enough for the police to post a wanted list, and then conduct a sweep-style search to arrest the other party!
Secondly
"In addition, we can use this as a basis to base our guesses on."
Xu Hao closed his eyes and kept thinking in his brain.
He attaches great importance to this information because he can indeed find out something!
"On this basis, at least two clues can be found!"
This thing can also analyze two other points.
1. The person behind the death and the purpose of torturing the murderer.
For example, if you test a drug, your body will inevitably show some adverse reaction to the drug, and the police can use such clues to infer that the other party is related to the drug.
After that, Sima Kong was searched, and based on the clues from the other party's lifetime, combined with drugs, the reverse trace was traced back to the other party.
Second, the murderer’s current state and current living environment!
What does this mean?
First we need to understand one point.
Is your personal life changed by the environment, or does the individual change the environment?
There are examples of individuals changing their environment, but such people stand at the pinnacle of Blue Star.
It does not mean that people at the grassroots level do not have the ability to change the environment, but that those who have the ability will stand at the top step by step and break away from the grassroots level.
"Adding the two clues, we can conclude that the personal needs of the person behind the death acted on the murderer."
"The personal needs used on the murderer will show corresponding scars."
"For the murderer, the corresponding scars will directly affect the living environment."
Xu Hao explained slowly.
This is a chain relationship.
What the people behind the scenes did to the murderer was definitely not just a slap in the face.
The body will definitely appear to be lame, or simply missing arms and legs.
Can people live a normal life in this state?
No, so this is what is called ‘the environment affects the individual’.
If the other party has no lower body, then the police can use this to search the living place of such a person.
It can be said that everything was displayed on the murderer's face, but Wang Chao did not see it.
If the mystery can be solved, they can investigate on two lines at the same time, investigating the source while investigating the murderer.
Say it.
Li Jianye paused. He now understood why this line was so important.
Just superficial scars.
It can determine the specific direction of the case!
"Go and see the scene."
After a while, neither of them had much to look at. Then Xu Hao stood up, took a deep breath and walked out.
Li Jianye nodded.
It's getting late now, but if you squeeze in.
You can still visit the crime scene.
The two set off as soon as they said they were going, got in the car, and drove all the way to their destination.
Fortunately, Wang Chao wanted to get to the hospital quickly from the scene, so he chose a hospital not far from the scene, and they arrived quickly.
The scene is the way forward.
At this time, the five corpses had long since disappeared and were sorted and taken away by the police. Several police cars were parked around them, and black and yellow warning tapes were pulled up.
The police also set up a shed with a dazzling light hanging from it.
It's a pity.
Although the light was dazzling, it could not illuminate any useful clues. There were only a few drops of blood on the ground and nothing else.
footprint?
There are footprints, but they are few.
"How is the on-site investigation going?" Li Jianye took out the cigarette from his mouth, looked at the police in front of him and asked.
When the originally sleepy policeman heard the sound, he immediately started up, then stood up and spoke.
"No new clues."
"Same as what Mr. Wang said, the other party's presence at the scene was very short and could not leave anything useful at all."
Still no new clues.
Li Jianye paused, looked back at the asphalt road, and then sighed.
It would be too difficult for them to find clues. In a place like this, and the behavior Wang Chao saw, there would be no useful traces at all.
Even if there is, it will be destroyed by a rain.
Although it rained lightly that night, the power of light rain should not be underestimated!
Xu Hao knelt down and searched for a moment.
After a while, he raised his head and looked towards the end of the road.
"At the end of the road, have you checked the place where the murderer disappeared?"
"Nothing was found. There are no cameras and no witnesses there. The police don't know where he went for the time being."
The police inspector in charge at the scene responded.
Xu Hao thought for a moment and then turned his attention to another place.
That is, the opposite end is the way the other party led the person to come.
"Where's the source?"
"This is even more impossible to detect. The usefulness of the police dogs has disappeared. There are no cameras and there are few witnesses. It is impossible to determine where the other party came from."
The inspector sighed again, they couldn't find out whether it was the end or the source
But it's not a big problem.
"Crack!"
Xu Hao got into the car.
"Where are you going?"
Li Jianye frowned.
"Try your luck and find out where the other person comes from."
Xu Hao said.
"It's getting late, it's almost eleven o'clock now, we can't delay tomorrow's search."
Li Jianye glanced at his watch and was about to say something.
The next second, Xu Hao's words rang out.
"Captain Li, have you discovered something?"
Discovered something?
"What's the matter?" Li Jianye paused, confusion on his face.
"Where are the family members of the deceased?"
Xu Hao suddenly spoke.
Zhao Shan was the principal of the school, but he did not show up. Sun Yuhui was too lazy to pay attention to him after he disappeared for a long time. After all, his salary was not paid by the other party.
Su Shan is a supporting female teacher
Not to mention that the local villagers had already suspected her, so it was no surprise that she disappeared and set off firecrackers.
Just because of the positioning of female supporting teachers, there will often be scenes like this where no one can be found.
Either the supporting teacher couldn't bear it and ran away, or the unruly people in the poor mountains and rivers did something.
There are also Sima Kong and Chen Jin. These people have disappeared. It is normal for people around them not to call the police.
But it’s impossible for the family not to call the police!
Therefore, Xu Hao guessed from the beginning that they might also be held hostage by the murderer.
Subsequent discoveries also confirmed this. The family members could not contact him at all, and they could not find him.
Therefore, there is a 95% probability that the other party was taken away by the murderer!
Yes, there is no problem from the initial reasoning to this point, but the problem is
“Where are the family members?”
Xu Hao suddenly asked.
"The family is not the murderer."
Li Jianye spoke subconsciously, but as he spoke, he suddenly paused, and then his eyes were full of astonishment.
"The family is not with the murderer now!"
The family is no longer here.
In other words, the other party is not with the murderer now!
Where did you see it?
Wang Chao!
The other party had indeed seen the scene of the crime. Although his words were very vague, it could be seen from the firm statement "no children" that the murderer did not bring his family with him when the crime occurred.
They may have stayed in the 'nest'.
Well, that makes sense.
But the problem is.
"The time of the crime was in the early morning hours, after the murderer arranged the crime scene."
"They came from the west and walked all the way to the east without turning back."
Xu Hao spoke slowly.
"Are they going to go back in a circle?"
"Judging from the established facts in reality, there is no such option."
Why?
Because of time!
Around four or five o'clock in the morning, the breakfast shop on the basic road started working.
The murderer finished processing the scene around one or two in the morning.
The opponent's legs are still a bit sloping. If he goes back in a circle, he will definitely attract the attention of road personnel!
Orangutans and monkeys are very common in the country of lizards and monkeys.
But it’s not common in Dongguo cities!
Once it appears, it will definitely cause a stir in a short period of time.
The police could receive information, but the result was that the police had no information.
Through this, we can judge from the opposite direction and find that the other party did not go back in a detour!
If there is no detour
Where are the family members?
The other party did not take away the family members of the deceased when they left, nor did they take a detour back. That can only be...
"Still in the lair!?"
Li Jianye's face showed surprise.
The next second, he didn't care about rest.
Get in the car directly, sit in the driver's seat, turn on the high beam, and call the intercom at the same time.
"Zhao Shui, arrange for a squadron to search westward from the crime scene to the location where the murderer came!"
After a moment, a voice came from the intercom.
"Received received."
Upon hearing this, Li Jianye immediately got into the car and drove westward from the scene.
If the family members are not taken away, there are only two states.
One, alive, while the other was left in the lair to wait for death.
2.
dead.
At present, the probability of 2 is yes, but it is actually not high. After all, the other party even saved the five dead people until now to kill them.
However, the low probability does not mean that there is no such probability!
If what the people behind the scenes did to the murderer is really what Xu Hao guessed.
The hatred of the other party is enough to support them in killing a bunch of people!
Well, it’s normal to involve innocent people.
Of course, the family members of the deceased may not be innocent. They are eating the money from selling people and enjoying the hotbed made of bones and blood, just like vampires. They are not innocent at all.
And precisely because of not being innocent.
So, the murderer started
There will be no scruples!
The people of the East are very particular about killing people and eradicating the roots. If they didn't torture them, they would probably die immediately.
But even if you are really alive
I guess it’s going to be uncomfortable too.
"Search to see if there are any deserted places suitable for multiple people to live in."
On the road, a car was speeding. Xu Hao was inside the car and looking out the window.
It's almost early morning.
The roads are dark, and these days the lights on remote roads are cut off on time at night.
The whole world was suppressed by darkness, residents were sleeping, and there were no lights in the houses, except for a few hotels that occasionally lit up their storefronts.
"It's not easy."
"On the west side is the foot of the mountain. The land there was previously planned for development and is currently under construction."
"There are many buildings that have not been renovated and look like abandoned unfinished buildings."
Li Jianye recalled the plans for Jiangsan City in his mind.
“As the New Year approaches, many construction sites have begun planning their annual holidays.”
"Most of the workers even went home, leaving only the remaining staff to carry out the most basic development."
"There are not enough people on the construction site. If some people do sneak in, it will be difficult to find them."
Hearing this, Xu Hao's heart sank.
The information came too late.
Only an hour or two has passed since the identity of the deceased was determined, the family members disappeared, and Sima Kong confirmed his previous guesses.
If it were faster.
This thought can be thought of in advance, so that there is more time to search the other party.
"Squeak~!"
Suddenly, there was a harsh brake sound and the car shook.
The two unbuckled their seat belts and walked directly into the construction site.
Construction site management at night is very tiring.
Basically anyone can sneak in, so there are thieves who will go to the construction site to steal something and sell it.
Of course, those who develop land these days usually have something to do with black, and it won't take long to make the other party vomit out whatever they want.
Therefore, thieves rarely come to visit, and even if they want to come, they will be restrained by the boss.
"Sweeping from floor to floor?"
Li Jianye was in trouble, his face was smacking his lips, and he was very difficult to deal with.
Xu Hao sniffed.
【Nose sniff love! 】
In an instant, countless smells were inhaled into the lungs, and he distinguished these smells
After a while, Xu Hao paused.
A more familiar smell is captured by the nose, this is
I've smelled it before!
It’s really here! ?
Xu Hao's pupils shrank, and the next second, he slightly identified the direction, and then led Li Jianye to a building.
"Are they here?" Li Jianye paused and put his hand on the gun on his waist.
"Probably."
Xu Hao stepped onto the stairs and was about to say something, but.
The smell suddenly disappears.
This made him pause instantly and his brows furrowed.
The smell is gone?
Xu Hao tried to go downstairs, but the smell reappeared after going downstairs, but not upstairs.
This is the first floor. If you glance around on the first floor, there is no sign of anyone at all!
Is there a basement?
Xu Hao searched everywhere and didn't see any basement.
Where is the other party? ?
Xu Hao frowned. He walked out of the building and stood outside, standing on the road that had not yet been built. His eyes scanned everywhere in front of him until.
"Chi!"
He sniffed suddenly.
The next second, the whole person was stunned.
This is an extremely rich flavor!
"What's going on!?"
When Li Jianye saw him like this, he immediately became vigilant.
However, before he could ask anything, the next second, he seemed to see something. He paused, and then his face showed suspicion.
"What is that!?"
Xu Hao heard the sound and looked over.
Li Jianye was looking at the construction site canteen.
There was a swill bucket outside, a blurry, motionless black shadow in the dark night.
But now.
In a daze, the swill bucket became slightly blurry.
There
There is something!
The two of them paused, and the next second, they moved lightly towards it.
The blurry black shadow gradually enlarged in front of my eyes.
It was a knee-high object. The other party knocked down a swill bucket, and the swill spread on the ground, mixing with the sand.
At this time.
The other person was sticking his butt out, burying his head, and licking the slop from the ground with his head.
This is
"Dog?"
Li Jianye looked at the hair, and after a slight pause on his face, the corners of his eyes twitched.
"Where's the dog?"
“There are no dogs at the door, how can there be dogs inside the construction site?”
There are dogs at the construction site, usually for guarding, but he has never heard of any free-range dogs at the construction site.
And this one in front of me.
A dog indeed.
Just.
"Pa~"
In a daze, Li Jianye accidentally stepped on a piece of gravel.
He was just about to wave away the dog in front of him.
But the next second.
The other party's ears moved slightly, then
The dog turned its head and looked.
The flashlight in Li Jianye's hand just illuminated the other person's face.
In an instant, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Li Jianye froze on the spot, his mind going blank.
Only see
The flashlight illuminated a face.
This human face had a smile forced out of it with nails. It looked at Li Jianye with a weird smile.
This is a dog with a human face!
"Chi!"
The opponent immediately rushed out, and his speed was surprisingly fast.
Li Jianye was still stunned, but he patted him with one hand.
"Catch!"
"Fuck"
I saw that Xu Hao had a gloomy face and was already rushing towards the opponent.
Something clicked in his head.
One thing that can be called the lowest point of humankind's bottom line.
In addition, Sima Kong is also related to foreign countries.
Now, he is gradually able to determine what happened to the murderer!
One, a dog with a human face
If so.
It can be said that the death of the deceased was not unfair at all!
Li Jianye came to his senses, and the next second, he took a deep breath and rushed forward.
"Catch!"
