Chapter 449 The First Clue

The location of the first crime has basically been ruled out as being near Jiang Zhu’s residence.

This car first appeared in the surveillance system at 4:02 this morning.

It was captured by a speed camera near Xishan on the north ring road of the city.

However, it’s not like the car first appeared somewhere near the West Mountain.

Because there are several entrances and exits near the camera that captured the vehicle, which is the intersection of a five-story overpass.

There are roads in multiple directions leading in and out of that section of the ring road.

Moreover, according to the video returned by Liu Qingshan's investigation, in the past two months, every time this car appeared in the middle of the night, it was near the speed camera.

This shows that the murderer is very familiar with nearby cameras.

I know that traffic is everywhere here, and there is only one speed detector.

After that, the car's driving trajectory did not go straight from the ring road towards the self-built housing area.

Instead, he walked around the city several times before finally appearing in the self-built housing area.

Chen Yan even suspected that the reason why the other party chose to enter the self-built housing area from the Huanghe Road side to dump the body was probably because the other party had planned a route long ago.

Because entering the self-built housing area from Huanghe Road, cars can only park on the roadside, and you need to get off the car and walk to enter the self-built housing area.

Most cars don't go this way, but take the same route Jiang Zhu took a taxi last night.

Park on the side with the camera, which is more convenient.

However, the other party's choice is different from that of ordinary people.

This shows that the murderer is very likely to know the distribution of surveillance cameras in the self-built housing area, so he deliberately chose to get off the car on the side of Huanghe Road and abandon the head.

He has medical knowledge, but his skills are rough, he is familiar with the road and he is very cautious.

What does this murderer do?

And judging from the murderer's action time, he had quite a lot of free time.

This way he will often appear at night.

"Did you find any valuable clues in the car?"

Since the other party used this car to dump the body, is it possible that this car was used to kidnap the victim?

"No."

"We carefully searched the car but found no clues."

"The rear seats and floor of the car are very clean, and there are not even footprints left."

"There were no fingerprints or any other residue found on the seats or elsewhere in the interior."

"So, the murderer either carefully cleaned the car, or he never used the car to kidnap the victim."

Liu Qingshan paused: "I personally prefer the latter."

Chen Yan nodded. On this point, he and Liu Qingshan had the same judgment.

Because this car did not appear in the city at all during the time when Jiang Zhu disappeared last night.

Therefore, the vehicle used by the murderer to kidnap the victim must not be this car.

Chen Yan looked around and saw that no one had anything to report, so he began to arrange the next work.

"First, investigate the backgrounds of the victims Jiang Zhu and Su Yu."

"Sent people to the two people's workplaces to understand the specific situation and find out all the call records and WeChat chat records of the two people before they disappeared."

"Captain Liu Qingshan is responsible for this matter."

"I have already made a report to Shen City. If you need support, you can contact Li Hong directly. He will arrange for the Shen City Detective Team to assist you in investigating Su Yu's situation."

"yes!"

"Second, seize the time to collect DNA information from the skin scrapings found on Jiang Zhu's right fingernail."

"Try to get the results tonight. You can follow up on Chaoyang."

"yes!"

"Third, find the taxi driver who took Jiang Zhu the night he disappeared."

"On the night Jiang Zhu disappeared, the driver was the last person to see Jiang Zhu. It can be said that he is suspected of committing the crime."

"Wang Gang, please follow up on this matter."

"Zhao Bing," Chen Yan looked at Zhao Bing: "You must find the off-road vehicle driver involved in the traffic accident on Linjiang Road as quickly as possible."

"Since the driver was able to leave the scene, he should have been uninjured, so he most likely saw the driver in the car and see if he can provide us with some useful information."

"yes!"

Everyone who received the task left the conference room one after another and started busy.

Chen Yan sat on a chair and carefully took stock of the two scenes this morning.

There is one thing that makes Chen Yan confused.

That's what the car smells like.

After Chen Yan, there was no smell found in the car, even if the olfactory gene lock was turned on, there was no smell.

There is only a faint smell similar to disinfectant.

This is strange.

You must know that the car accident happened not long ago. The murderer had been driving the vehicle for a long time, and the other party would definitely leave his scent in the car.

However, Chen Yan didn't notice it.

Does the murderer have no body odor at all?

This is unscientific.

Originally, Chen Yan wanted to use this to try to identify the suspect directly.

Later I had to give up.

The first person to report back the news was Zhao Bing.

After the incident in the morning, the contact information of the off-road vehicle driver was found through the vehicle boarding information.

Just now, detectives from the Second Division found someone at his home.

In the interrogation room, a detective was asking the driver for relevant information.

"The driver's name is Wang Qiang. He was drunk last night and slept in the KTV all night. He still didn't wake up when he got up in the morning."

"When I drove on Linjiang Road, I was a little confused, then drove in the opposite direction into the opposite lane and collided with the black car."

"Because I was afraid of being found guilty of drunk driving, and I was not injured at the time, I threw the car and ran away."

"Has he seen the murderer?"

Zhao Bing nodded: "I've seen it."

"But the other person was wearing a mask and a cap, and Wang Qiang didn't see the other person's face clearly."

"I just provided the general physical characteristics of the other party. He is about 1.7 meters tall, thin, thick eyebrows, single eyelids, wearing jeans and blue sneakers, and a blue long-sleeved shirt."

In the surveillance screen, Wang Qiang was recalling the scene at that time.

"Because I drank too much last night and was still awake in the morning. I was afraid that the other party would call the police, so I got out of the car and prepared to run away."

"After all, I was driving on the wrong side of the road, and they were driving normally. I must be fully responsible."

"If you arrest me, your driver's license must not be revoked."

"But not only did the other party not chase me, he looked at me after getting out of the car, turned around and ran in the opposite direction."

"I didn't think about anything else at the time. I just wanted to deal with the accident after I sobered up."

After leaving the interrogation room, Chen Yan thought for a while: "Arrange a portraitist to portrait the suspect based on the information provided by Wang Qiang."

Although Wang Qiang did not see the other party's face, he could at least provide some information about the murderer's body shape.

I hope it will be of some help to subsequent cases.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."

The situation has just been dealt with here, and Wang Gang has also returned.

"Team Chen, the taxi driver who took Jiangzhu home on the night of the 6th has been found."

"Let's go and have a look!"

Interrogation Room Two.

Chen Yan personally interrogated the taxi driver.

"Officer, I really have no impression of this woman."

"We have dozens of customers in Tianla, but they really have no impression of this woman."

Liang Cong's expression looked helpless.

It seemed that Chen Yan's question to him was a bit overwhelming.

"No impression?"

Chen Yan stared at Liang Cong's expression carefully: "We checked your driving trajectory and passenger records on the night of the 6th."

"You didn't come out until noon that day and started working."

"But the business was not very good, and we only had seven customers at night."

"The woman you picked up at the entrance of Qingsong Beauty is your eighth customer and the only woman."

"You actually said you had no impression?"

Liang Cong's face looked slightly unnatural, but it quickly returned to normal.

"Ah, is that so?"

"Then... I think I have some impression. I did drag a woman to the self-built housing area near Huanghe Road that day."

"But when they got in the car and I was driving, there was a guardrail between us, and I just took a look in the rearview mirror."

"I'm really not impressed by this woman."
