Chapter 159 This Person!
Three o'clock in the morning.
The wind was blowing outside the police station, passing through the big pine trees and small bushes, and it was like a hundred ghosts knocking on the door.
But the criminal police team did not sleep today, and the lights were bright as if they were keeping watch. When the wind blew to the front of the yard, they quickly dispersed.
Fourth floor.
The lights in the forensic office were also on, the door was open, and there was no one.
Wu Jun went to the cafeteria downstairs to help, and Jiang Yuan squatted in the imaging office, his eyes were about to glow red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple.
There are only a few hotels in Ningtai County, but there are really a lot of surveillance videos brought back.
Unlike some places where surveillance videos are often perfunctory, the hotel's surveillance is multi-angle. There may be two videos in front of a bar. It seems that you haven't watched it, but you can't not watch it.
Jiang Yuan and several other technicians drank wolfberry tea and stared at the screen. Soon they didn't even feel like chatting.
Now, judging that the suspect is here to collect debts, it means that he is likely to be a foreigner, and the probability of him leaving as soon as he arrives is very high.
Especially when he sees someone dead, the possibility of him leaving directly is very high.
Therefore, in order to minimize the difficulty of pursuit, the sooner the suspect is identified, the better.
Of course, this is based on the premise that the suspect can be found.
At this time, Jiang Yuan and several technicians had several forms in front of them, which were taken from the bills and had the time periods when cash was deposited.
Everyone naturally went to look for people in these time periods first.
However, the imagined single male with a medium build, between the ages of 45 and 49, and perhaps wearing "KPMG" brand sports shoes, did not appear in these time periods.
Several somewhat suspicious targets, later, the targets in pairs or even three people, as long as the age and build match, were followed up by criminal police.
Nowadays, hotel accommodation requires ID card registration and mobile phone numbers must be left. With this foundation, it is not too difficult to follow up and inquire about the guests staying in the hotel.
However, no exciting news came back.
Jiang Yuan himself was getting anxious.
"Take a break. If it doesn't work, think of another way." Wu Junhao brought in a plate of roujiamo, watched from behind for a while, and began to invite everyone to have a midnight snack.
"Thank you, Captain Wu." Jiang Yuan was also hungry, so he took a roujiamo and ate it voraciously.
"There are enough biscuits, eat as many as you want. There will be mutton soup later." Wu Junhao used public funds to buy biscuits this time, which was even more generous.
As he was talking, two young men came in with a cart. On the cart was a stainless steel barrel filled with mutton soup.
"The canteen's food delivery equipment is quite complete." Jiang Yuan looked at it and praised it.
"The canteen usually has to deliver food to the prisoners." Wu Junhao's spoon for scooping soup knocked on the wall of the barrel, making a crisp sound, which immediately gave people a sense of déjà vu of iron doors and iron windows.
Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "It's used by the criminals during the day and by the police at night. It's very efficient."
"That was in the past. When I was an apprentice, it was so easy to catch people. It's not like now. I watch the surveillance video for half a night and can't find anything." Wu Junhao was dissatisfied.
He was a bodyguard and a nanny, but he didn't get anything. He was really impatient.
However, he was just emotionally unstable for a moment, and he apologized in an instant: "I was talking nonsense. Sometimes you need some luck to catch people. This person may not be staying in the hotel."
As he said that, Wu Junhao suddenly had an idea and said, "Could this person have gone to a prostitute? Find a brothel, or a place to book a night..."
"Captain Liu has already gone to look for it." The criminal police next to him reminded him.
Wu Junhao sighed regretfully: "Old Liu is still experienced!"
Jiang Yuan didn't feel embarrassed to laugh at a mouthful of roujiamo and a mouthful of mutton soup.
At three o'clock in the morning, fast carbon and fat are the absolute kings.
What Michelin, what intangible heritage, at three o'clock in the morning, it can't beat the barbecue stall.
Or, in other words, why do some people say that the food at the barbecue stall is better than any other food? That's because the body is cheering for fast carbon and fat.
The same food, if eaten at noon, will not be so fragrant.
This scientific experiment supports multiple repeated experiments for verification.
Jiang Yuan was also very hungry, and watching videos is also very physically demanding.
After wolfing down a meat bun, Jiang Yuan took the time to pull the progress bar, preparing to eat the cake while watching the surveillance.
They had just watched the time period in the record column two or three times.
Jiang Yuan readjusted the time this time, put the time on the day of the eucalyptus, and played it in the lobby of the Crowne Plaza Hotel, the largest hotel in Ningtai County, from the afternoon, and then played it at double speed.
He looked at it this way, but in fact he was still staring at the shoes.
The strategy determined before was to follow the flow of money and find guests who booked rooms with cash.
In this era, there are very few customers who still use cash for transactions. If the age and body shape are suitable, they will be listed as suspects and further screened.
But after screening and screening, there is no one in the current suspect list.
There will be no qualitative change even if you search for the third and fourth time.
Everyone's judgment of the suspect may be fundamentally wrong. The other party may not need to stay in the hotel, may have left Ningtai County directly, or may not use cash to stay in the hotel...
Any possibility exists, but Jiang Yuan believes from the bottom of his heart that the suspect will pursue a more comfortable lifestyle.
Because the suspect who returns to the crime scene must be arrogant and conceited.
He dared to go back to the crime scene and even watched Jiang Yuan wipe the evidence for such a long time. Would he leave Ningtai County overnight?
Jiang Yuan thought so, drank a mouthful of mutton soup, and directly fast-forwarded the progress bar to the evening.
If the guess is correct, the suspect was watching Jiang Yuan wipe the floor during that afternoon.
So, if he wants to stay in the hotel, he can only stay at night.
In theory, he will not change clothes.
Because it is safer and more arrogant to take away the clothes worn at the crime scene for disposal.
Jiang Yuan tried to guess the other party's thoughts, chewing Roujiamo in his mouth, and a pair of gray and white sports shoes appeared in the crowd of people in the video.
Jiang Yuan didn't even see the face of the person in the video, but the shoes didn't need to be fixed and enlarged, Jiang Yuan recognized them at a glance.
BPM!
A pair of unsophisticated shoes.
Unsophisticated naming method, unsophisticated aesthetic design...
In recent days, Jiang Yuan has been thinking about this pair of shoes. Now that he sees it again-
Jiang Yuan dropped the Roujiamo in his hand, pressed pause first, and then put the video into normal mode to watch.
Others noticed Jiang Yuan's actions and gathered around him.
"Travel group? Yes, travel groups are registered collectively." In the video office, Gao Jiansheng, who was watching the video with Jiang Yuan, slapped his thigh, excited and painful.
"This person. He is in line with the height, weight and age. He looks single. He is wearing KPMG and his clothes and pants are all bought in that discount store." Jiang Yuan pointed out the suspect in the video.
This is an ordinary-looking middle-aged man. His face looks a bit old, with small eyes and a small mouth, and he has a short haircut. At first glance, he looks like a security guard in an old community who has changed his clothes to go home after get off work.
He looked quite calm. After entering the hotel lobby with the tour group, he handed his ID card to the tour guide and stood in the crowd, listening to everyone talking, and occasionally spoke.
"He came all the way here with the tour group." When Wu Junhao said this, he felt a chill on his back. This was a way of entering and exiting that no one had expected. If Jiang Yuan hadn't found the other person's shoes, it would be impossible to recognize him.
"This is the video of the day of the incident. The tour group should have left Ningtai County." Wu Jun reminded in a deep voice.
Ningtai County is not a tourist city, but is mainly used as a transit point during the tour. Some tour groups still play in Changyang City during the day, and pull the group members to Ningtai County to stay at night to save the huge difference in accommodation between the two places.
For this reason, Ningtai County has also developed several artificial and semi-artificial attractions, which occasionally win the favor of some tour groups.
But no matter how good the service is, no tour group will stay in Ningtai County for two days.
They must have left on the second day, and they might have gone somewhere on the third day.
"Jiang Yuan, call Captain Huang. Everyone else, collect evidence, get the suspect's ID card, and check the itinerary of this tour group..." Wu Junhao pointed at someone and gave an order, causing the imaging office to quickly enter work mode.
