Chapter 73 Obstacles

Xinfayan Hotel. Google search reading

It is located in the northern suburbs of Ningtai County, just a few kilometers away from Jiangcun Community.

The shop of the cigarette shop is not big, with a total area of ​​20 square meters, and it is still a mess inside.

The shop owner was a woman in her forties or fifties. She leaned against the rolling shutter door and stepped on the glass shards with her feet. She said distressedly: "God damned, they robbed me of several sacks of cigarettes and moved a lot of wine. If we can't find it back, we will All these years have been in vain.”

"Is it transported in sacks? One inside and one outside?" Jiang Yuan stood outside the rolling gate, observing the surroundings and asking at the same time.

"One is loading it inside, and the other is moving it outside. Both of them are carrying knives. They asked me to stand in the corner." The female shopkeeper pointed to the location and whispered: "We have been robbing for a long time, but no one helped."

"Have the people who were moving outside come into the store?"

"He stood at the door and didn't come in, but he gestured with such a long knife." The female shop owner gestured with the knife.

Jiang Yuan nodded to show that he knew, and then asked: "Has anyone else seen it? If it takes a long time."

"It was raining heavily that day. I came here in the morning and couldn't leave. I didn't see anyone passing by."

"Who usually buys cigarettes and alcohol in your store?" Jiang Yuan asked again.

"There are people passing by on the street, in nearby family buildings, and there are barbecue and crayfish shops on the street in front. If the customers want to smoke, just call me, and I will ask my husband to send them over, and I can earn one or two yuan. Money for running errands." The female shopkeeper paused as she spoke, then added: "I often have cash here, and all the cash is taken away."

Jiang Yuan thought about it while recording the female shopkeeper's answer, and then asked: "Is there any surveillance?"

"Yes, I can't see anything clearly. It was raining that day, and the three robbers all wore hoodies that covered their mouths. Just bring me some cigarettes when you come in..." The boss's wife said. Emotions rose.

"Three people?" Wang Zhong confirmed.

The female shopkeeper nodded and said, "There were three people, one in the car and two people moving it. Have you ever encountered a case of robbery by three people?"

"Just asking for clarification. By the way, our colleagues in surveillance have already made a copy, right?" Wang Zhong changed the topic with one sentence.

Compared with the old detective, Wang Zhong is still a young man who lacks experience, but he already knows many basic issues.

Jiang Yuan also knew why he asked. In ordinary smoke shops, the property that can be robbed is usually limited. It is not very cost-effective for three people to rob, plus a car.

Robbers also need to pay attention to cost-effectiveness.

Of course, they made money from robbing the Xinfayan Hotel. Because the boss happened to bring a large amount of goods from the warehouse.

From this point of view, the three men who conspired to rob the Xinfa Smoke Hotel were probably not a simple premeditated crime, nor a "let's buy a hoodie and go rob a smoke shop" type of robbery. Instead, they knew in advance that Xinfa Some situations in cigarette hotels.

If we use this reasoning as a basis to find the suspect... it will be too troublesome.

Xinfayan Hotel is open for business, and the boss has no intention of hiding the inventory situation. Not only the people around the boss, the boss's relatives and friends know the situation, but also the old customers nearby, that is, those barbecue restaurants. The crayfish shop, and even their old customers...

Besides, maybe it's possible for a friend of a friend to talk about it while eating barbecue.

Unless no clue can be found, the criminal police team is absolutely unwilling to choose this clue to follow up.

Jiang Yuan carried the survey box and started sweeping from the door.

Several onlookers were also persuaded by Wang Zhong to retreat further away, and then came over to serve as Jiang Yuan's assistant.

Wang Zhong had previously followed Jiang Yuan to sweep a murder case, and the sweep was a secondary scene, and he also found key clues that could solve the case. After having such an experience, Wang Zhong not only had no doubts about Jiang Yuan's ability in field exploration, but he also admired him deeply.

On-site investigation can be said to be the basis of criminal science and technology. Forensic doctors need to do spot inspections, and trace inspections also need spot inspections, but in fact there are not many who can do spot inspections well.

In the face of today's rapidly changing technologies, a professional site surveyor has very limited knowledge. Not to mention the level of school education, even the length of education is not enough to deal with most sites. And experience is often covered by new things in the technical field.

Technicians who really have a solid foundation, are good at it, and can quickly master new technologies are usually unlikely to stay in the county bureau for a long time.

Lu Jianfeng, the captain of the criminal squadron, pulled Jiang Yuan out. It was true that no one was available, but he was also greedy for Jiang Yuan's skills.

The two of them swept all the way into the store, and what they found the most were footprints.

As for the fingerprints that Jiang Yuan was best at, there were quite a few scanned out, but none of them were usable.

You don't need to check the surveillance to know that the three robbers who knew they were wearing hoods were definitely wearing gloves.

As for trace evidence, in this kind of case, it is still a small skill - it is too expensive, and it requires help from the provincial department or the trace evidence laboratory in Changyang City, and you need to queue up. It is not a last resort. Captain Huang Qiangmin is sure They are unwilling to approve.

Therefore, the only thing that can really be used to solve the problem is murder.

"Let's go to the surrounding businesses and ask around to collect more surveillance videos." Jiang Yuan naturally thought of the video.

The so-called three treasures of criminal police: video, mobile phone, and DNA. Not to mention that Jiang Yuan has image enhancement skills, but he just doesn't. When encountering a case like this on the street, the first thing to collect is surveillance video.

However, there are good and bad videos, and there are far and near, and usually the more the better.

Generally, when criminal police handle a case, they only need to find a few suitable videos in suitable locations, which is enough to solve the case. However, given the location of Xinfayan Hotel and the heavy rain at the time of the incident, it was difficult to meet such small requirements.

The first thing Jiang Yuan and Wang Zhong looked at was the surveillance video of the parking lot opposite. They saw a white van coming and a white van leaving under the heavy rain. It could be said that there were no clues at all.

"What is certain is that the car went north." Wang Zhong sighed after reading it.

Going further north from the northern suburbs, you will reach the national highway, so the only useful surveillance that can be found is in this section nearby.

Jiang Yuan paused several times and could only frown and asked: "When the case happened before, were the police from the police station here? Did they ask for surveillance? Did they see the license plate number?"

Jiang Yuan was considering the possibility of image enhancement.

Wang Zhong said: "I saw it, fake license plate."

"So thoughtful?" Jiang Yuan was quite surprised.

"Well, there are side roads everywhere in the northern suburbs. Just find a place to put it on and change it back later. There is nowhere to look." Wang Zhong whispered, slightly frustrated. He just felt that he was doing this survey. Feeling lonely.

Jiang Yuan's mood was okay. He now had so many skills, and what he needed to consider more was how to cost-effectively take out the three robbers.

The rain had lightened up a lot. Jiang Yuan rearranged his clothes and said, "Search for more videos first. I'll go back and deal with it slowly."

Wang Zhong followed his footsteps, but couldn't help but said angrily: "These three found it at a good time. It happened to be raining heavily when the crime occurred, and it was still stuck at the busiest time of the criminal police team. The evidence that may be there in the end cannot be obtained. Fortunately, it was washed away by the heavy rain..."

He was purely a technician, so he felt quite helpless. If you are an experienced criminal police officer, you can still follow the traditional patterns such as crime methods and crime methods.

But from Wang Zhong's point of view, this heavy rain destroyed 90% of his skills.

According to his estimation, 80% of Jiang Yuan would be destroyed.

After copying nearly ten pieces of data in one go, he walked around and came back. He saw the female shopkeeper standing at the door of the cigarette shop, looking at the two people eagerly. When he saw them walking in, he quickly handed each a box of cigarettes and a bottle of water, and said: "How is it? Can you find it?"

"We will try our best to find it for you." Wang Zhong, who was wearing a law enforcement recorder, immediately pushed him away: "Don't worry, we all take the robbery very seriously, and we all hope to solve the case."

"I know, I know." The female shopkeeper nodded quickly and added: "We are also a small business. Even if you have a store and a warehouse, all the money our family earns is here. My husband and I used to be For those who work as teenagers, they work until they are 30 years old. Then they move from Changyang to Qinghe and then to Ningtai, and then they have a firm foothold. You see, I am already fifty years old, and I only bought it a few years ago. House, loan payment..."

"Don't cry..." Wang Zhong was grabbed and shaken by the female shopkeeper. She quickly handed him a tissue and asked, "Where is your husband? Let him look at the shop together."

"My husband went to the warehouse to take inventory. A lot of the wine in the warehouse was given to us on credit by channels. Now that they heard something happened to us, they all came running to take it back, and some even forced us to pay the bill. My husband was angry. But I went to the warehouse to return it to them." The female shopkeeper took a tissue and blew her nose, and she felt better.

Wang Zhongxu took a deep breath and forced a smile: "Okay, let's go back and check the surveillance first. If there is any news, we will inform you."

"Can you get the goods back?" The female shop owner had her last hope.

"We'll try our best," Wang Zhong said.

Jiang Yuandao: "If you catch him quickly, they may not have time to sell the stolen goods."
