Chapter 299 A good story made out of nothing


Chapter 299 A good story made out of nothing

Feng Mu is actually not good at investigating cases. His limited knowledge of solving cases comes from the 3,000 episodes of "Detective Conan" in his previous life.

If it really needs to be applied to investigating cases, the knowledge reserves are still far from enough and too illusory, making it difficult to implement them into reality.

But this did not discourage Feng Mu, because in his mind, investigating and solving crimes were completely different concepts.

Investigating a case requires careful logical consideration and a chain of interlocking evidence to restore the truth of the case. However, to solve the case, all you need is... a good story? ! !

A story is composed of three elements: time, place, and characters.

In other words, during the process of solving the case, Feng Mu can directly use the existing and verified elements to add to the story. These real elements can make the story full of reality.

For those missing and unverifiable elements, a little imagination is needed to create them out of thin air. These elements out of thin air will make the story complete.

And a story that is both true and complete is not the same as...the truth.

This is by no means Feng Mu's whimsical idea for solving crimes, nor was it something he created right away. In fact, this idea came from a piece of movie content that Ma Bin played for him some time ago.

The head catcher in the movie has a reputation as a detective with a 100% success rate in solving crimes. However, in order to solve crimes, you must learn from the detective. There is nothing wrong with that!

Now that he had a complete idea for solving the case in his mind, Feng Mu even learned to answer the question in his mind and quietly drew a portrait of the murderer.

Oh, no, the case hasn't been solved yet, so it can't be called that. It should be called a suspect profile.

Learning the detective's thinking pattern, Feng Mu looked at the suspicious face that Liu Yi pointed out in the video.

It was obvious that this face did not match the suspect profiles in his mind.

Feng Mu frowned slightly, then relaxed again, thinking:

"That's right. In most crime-solving stories, the murderer will not surface at the beginning, but after some twists and turns of digging, the clues will eventually lead back to the real murderer."

In the video, there is a middle-aged man in an ordinary prison guard uniform, about forty years old. He is holding a wooden bucket in his hand and is stepping out of the dark water prison.

Feng Mu asked: "What's the problem?"

Liu Yi clicked the mouse, dragged the progress bar back and forth, and explained:

"It was too fast. The interval between him entering and exiting the water cell was too short. It only lasted less than half a minute. There was no time to finish feeding the prisoners inside."

Although most of the prisoners' diet consists of sticky liquid food, and prison guards usually behave roughly when feeding death row inmates, half a minute still seems too hasty.

After all, there are at least three prisoners in each water cell in the death row area.

On average, it is almost impossible to feed a prisoner within 10 seconds. However, it is more than enough to help a prisoner take medicine within the same 10 seconds.

What kind of medicine is it, you ask?

If you don’t remember this question, you can ask Captain Tian Tao who is lying in the morgue, and he can answer you.

The video continues to play. The prison guard enters and exits a water cell at a rate of every half minute, appearing to be very hardworking and efficient.

Liu Yi said suspiciously: "If he was feeding and entering and exiting so many water prisons, his barrel should have been empty long ago."

Feng Mu narrowed his eyes and suddenly asked: "Is he dead?"

Liu Yi was stunned for a moment: "Huh?" Feng Mu: "I mean, when the death row prisoners rioted, was this prison guard also there?"

Liu Yi quickly tapped the keyboard and quickly retrieved the surveillance video of each entrance and exit of the death row area before the riot. The pictures on the computer quickly switched until a clear picture was frozen.

At the exit of the death row area, the prison guard in the picture has changed into civilian clothes. He is standing in front of the iris verifier, waiting for identity confirmation.

A moment later, he successfully passed the verification and walked out of the death row. Three minutes later, he walked out of the prison door.

The time recorded in the freeze frame is 08:44 this morning, more than 7 hours after the death row inmates rioted.

Liu quickly retrieved the prison guard's identity information through the records of the iris verification system.

He looked at Feng Mu, his eyes were shining, and said loudly:

"We found it. It is indeed a prison guard from the death row. His name is Gong Lao. He is 41 years old. He was on duty last night and just left work this morning."

Feng Mu's face remained as calm as water, but he sneered secretly in his heart:

"The investigation went so smoothly, as if it was deliberately arranged. The palace workers could have been more secretive, but they were so obviously exposed to surveillance. Was it a trap to lure me in or a scapegoat?"< br>


Feng Mu thought for a moment and decided to take the bait. He said: "Check the address of the palace laborer."

Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!

Generally speaking, wrong clues will inevitably lead to wrong results, but Feng Mu doesn't care because he is determined to correct all mistakes back to the right track.

Liu Yi quickly found out the address of Gong Lao.

Feng Mu said: "Get ready, we're going to leave now. You drive, and I'll report to the warden."

After giving instructions, Feng Mu left the office and returned to report the progress of the investigation to Qian Huan.

The warden is now under a lot of pressure. As the most loyal subordinate, he must know how to share his worries and report on the progress of the investigation from time to time. This is not only the fulfillment of his duties, but also a generous and cost-effective display of loyalty.

Feng Mu pays great attention to every detail. In the workplace, it is these trivial details that can subtly improve the leader's evaluation of you.

Sometimes, these seemingly useless details are even more important than what you can achieve in the end.

Qian Huan was very satisfied with Feng Mu's report. Crucial progress had been made so quickly, which relieved the pressure on him a little.

Feng Mu is very aware of the pressure Qian Huan is under now. To put it bluntly, if he cannot solve the case as soon as possible and help Qian Huan take the blame, it may be difficult for Qian Huan to continue to hold the position of warden.

By the way, Feng Mu mentioned the investigation difficulties and made some requests. Qian Huan accepted them all without hesitation.

Feng Mu took the "Sword of Shang Fang" given by Qian Huan and quickly transferred some people from several prison districts to help him. There were not many people. After all, the prison was also very short of manpower at the moment, but everyone had something. its value.

Feng Mu's selection value is different from ordinary people. He does not select those with good performance, good popularity, or good grades. On the contrary, he selects characters who are on the verge of being eliminated in each district in the [final elimination system].

To put it simply, they are all potential "Wang Congs", and now these "Wang Congs" have all been gathered together by Feng Mu.

Except for Gong Qi, the fifth senior brother, he recommended himself and joined with great enthusiasm...
