Chapter 11 Interlude [I’ll add a small update if it’s okay]
"What do you mean?"
He Qiu raised his voice a little higher, his eyes widened, and he immediately went up to say something: "We, the police, are handling the case and we still need to report to you?"
"This is also the question I want to ask!"
Els refused to give in at all:
"Captain He was rude to our staff before, which greatly affected the mutual trust between our Wei Xing Group and the police. Hasn't your bureau already suspended Captain He?
"I will give truthful feedback to the Chief Superintendent of Public Security of my home planet about the efficiency of your bureau and the bottomless protection of its police officers!"
He Chou was immediately furious and immediately rolled up his sleeves and went over to start a righteous debate.
"Hey! Xiao He! What are you doing!"
The old police officer sitting next to him raised his hand to hold He Qiu.
"This matter is required to be kept as confidential as possible. Mr. Ayers is right. Sit down first! I will host this case summary meeting!"
Then, the old police officer looked at Wang Ze who looked calm and said with a smile:
"You guys should have seen yesterday's hot searches. Wang Ze and He Chou deserve commendation for their courage and wisdom. All of us here should learn from them.
"Xiao He has always done an outstanding job and is the backbone of our bureau. With his suspension, we are unable to carry out many tasks. In my opinion, let him come back and continue to shine.
"Wang Ze, I would like to solemnly introduce that he has cooperated with our police station several times before, and each time he played a key role in solving the case. We invited him from the Sixth Star Cluster to prove our understanding of this case. The case is taken very seriously.
"Okay, let's take a look at the progress of the work in the past two days..."
The old police officer lowered his head and glanced at the paper copy in front of him. His old face, which had been smiling just now, soon fell down and he said in a deep voice:
"You could say, well, no progress."
Qi Ming almost laughed out loud.
"Deputy Director Gong."
Els leaned forward, placed his hands and fingers on the table, and spoke in a bright and aggressive voice:
"This is already the fifth day. When will the police hold a press conference to confirm that this is an offline murder?"
The old police officer and deputy director Gong Tianzheng looked embarrassed and explained in a leisurely manner:
"We haven't made any breakthroughs in the case, and we can't even grasp the murderer's modus operandi. Holding a press conference rashly will not be convincing at all."
"The police press conference is convincing!"
Els's voice became higher and higher:
"Having a company without any fault suffer damage and causing hundreds of millions of users in the virtual community to panic. Is this the result the police want to see?
“I believe that the police absolutely have regulations to respond to emergency situations.
“And I can guarantee that this press conference will not have any negative impact on the police.
"When a person is shot and killed, even if the murderer is not found yet, can't it be announced that he was maliciously murdered offline by others?"
Deputy Director Gong Tianzheng fell into silence.
Qi Ming wrote furiously on the paper notebook.
He Qiu snorted dissatisfiedly: "If the credibility of the police is overdrawn at will, that will have a truly bad impact."
"Captain He," Els raised his voice, "In terms of technology, we, Wei Xing Group, have the absolute right to speak! We, Wei Xing Group, can guarantee that this case definitely happened offline! It was just being used by people with malicious intentions to create mysteries and try to take advantage of the opportunity. Cannibalize our Weixing Group’s market!”
"Absolute right to speak in technology?"
Wang Ze's voice suddenly sounded, causing everyone's attention to focus on him again.
I saw Wang Ze slowly taking off his glasses, rubbing his sore eyes, and asking unhurriedly:
"According to the information disclosed by your group, Weixing Group has been deploying markets outside its home planet in the past five years.
"But your results don't seem to be ideal. In Hengzhou Star, which I am most familiar with, your market share is only a few tenths of a percent, not even as good as the small technology group under my name.
“Weixing Group’s number of patent applications related to false production has fallen out of the top ten in the industry for eight consecutive years.
"Are you alone worthy of being called the right to speak in technology?"
Els's expression was a little stern: "Mr. Wang Ze!"
Wang Ze raised a finger: "The reason why the current case investigation is in trouble is very likely that your Weixing Group was technically suppressed by the murderer, and there are some undiscovered loopholes."
"Mr. Wang Ze, you need to be responsible for your words!"
"You and I are both adults, and it is our most basic obligation to be responsible for our own actions." Wang Ze lowered his fingers and smiled leisurely, "But I need to remind you that the murderer said "You are the first" when committing the crime. , what does this mean? ”
Els immediately shook his head: "It is impossible for a similar situation to happen again. We have launched the most stringent online monitoring!"
Wang Ze smiled and said: "Really? Has Mr. Ayers ever understood the difference between police cases and detective cases?"
"I would like to hear the details," Els's voice became weaker unconsciously.
Wang Ze's smile gradually faded:
“The police handling a case starts with collecting evidence, identifying the suspect based on the clues derived from the evidence, and then making breakthroughs step by step during the interrogation. The most important thing is to proceed steadily, and the case is closed to an ironclad case.
"Detectives generally rely on deductive calculations when handling cases. They first assume the situation and then see whether the limited evidence supports the hypothesis.
"According to my current speculation, the other party is likely to commit another crime in a short period of time.
"Tomorrow? The day after tomorrow?
"You don't even know each other's modus operandi, how can you take precautions?"
Els's facial muscles were stiff.
Wang Ze continued:
"While I was waiting for my assistant to come over just now, I did a survey and found that you are one of the senior executives in charge of public relations at Weixing Group. Public relations is your area of expertise.
"Then you should know that if a second similar virtual murder occurs again, it will inevitably cause an inevitable panic.
"The public relations strategy you are doing now will become the shrapnel wrapped around when gunpowder explodes.
“The impact that Wei Xing Group suffered at that time was definitely not comparable to yesterday’s hijacking case.
"Don't you have to think about your future job? Els."
The conference room was quiet for more than ten seconds.
The old police officers looked at me and me with happy expressions.
"Mr. Wang Ze," Els showed a sincere smile, "we were too impatient before, so here we solemnly apologize to Deputy Director Gong and Captain He.
"Mr. Wang Ze, do you have any important clues now?"
"Of course, otherwise what confidence would I have to scold you directly?"
Wang Ze said calmly: "When your boss and the technical representatives of your group appear at this meeting, I will naturally bring out the clues I have discovered."
Els hurriedly said: "Mr. Wang Ze, is it necessary to do this?"
"It is necessary.
"First, your level is too low to make timely decisions, which will affect the efficiency of communication between me and Weixing Group.
"Second, don't you know which university you graduated from and what major you graduated from? You know nothing about technology. This case obviously involves the advanced theories of virtual reality and virtual reality.
"As for the third..."
Wang Ze stood up slowly, looked straight into Els's eyes, and added slowly:
"Mr. Ayres and I have conflicting auras. If he continues to appear in my sight, it will inevitably affect my next investigation ideas.
"This meeting will not continue until the person I requested to see arrives."
After saying that, Wang Ze stood up gracefully, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and walked towards the door of the conference room with Qi Ming, who was suppressing a smile.
He Qiu lowered his head and carefully reviewed the information, with an excellent expression of being indifferent to the world.
Lao Wang is a good person and can handle things well.
My brother was wronged, but Lao Wang really did it.
……
Five minutes later, the police station building.
Els disappeared and a remote video connection was opened in the conference room.
Wang Ze took a sip of strong coffee, walked quickly to the front projection screen, and fiddled with his fingers to adjust a complete timeline.
"The clues that were missed before are actually hidden at the crime scene.
"Let's take a look first. This is the video of the deceased's wife Lin Xiaoxia when she took notes for the first time." (End of Chapter)
