Chapter 159 This person!
Three o'clock in the morning.
The wind was blowing outside the police station, blowing through the big pine trees and small bushes, as if a hundred ghosts were knocking on the door.
It's just that the criminal police team didn't sleep today. The lights were brightly lit like a night vigil. The wind blew up to the yard and dispersed quickly.
Fourth floor.
The lights in the medical examiner's office were also on, the door was open, and no one was there.
Wu Jun went to the cafeteria downstairs to help. Jiang Yuan squatted in the imaging office, his eyes almost glowing with red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple.
There are only a few hotels in Ningtai County, but there are quite a lot of surveillance videos brought back.
Unlike some places where the surveillance videos are often perfunctory, the hotel surveillance is from multiple angles. In front of a bar, there may be two videos showing it. If you look at it, you will not look at it, and it will be useless if you don't look at it.
Jiang Yuan and several other technicians drank wolfberry tea and stared at the screen. Soon they were no longer in the mood to chat.
Now it is judged that the criminal suspect is here to collect debts, which means that he is likely to be a foreigner, and the probability of leaving as soon as he comes is very high.
Especially when you see someone dead, the possibility of leaving directly is very high.
Therefore, in order to minimize the difficulty of chasing and escaping, 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, in front of Jiang Yuan and several technicians, there were multiple forms, which were pulled out from the bills and included the time period for the cash to be credited.
Naturally, everyone rushes to find people during these time periods first.
However, the imagined single man of average height, aged between 45 and 49, perhaps wearing KPMG sneakers, did not appear during these time periods.
There were a few somewhat suspicious targets, but later on, any targets in pairs or even groups of three, as long as they were of the same age and size, would be followed up and questioned by criminal police.
Nowadays, hotel accommodation requires an ID card to check in, 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 looked anxious.
"Let's rest for a while. If it doesn't work, think of other ways." Wu Junhao came in with a plate of meat buns, looked at the back for a while, and then started to greet everyone for supper.
"Thank you, team." Jiang Yuan was also hungry, so he took a meat bun and ate it hungrily.
"There are enough cake tubes. I can eat as many as I want. There will also be mutton soup later." Wu Junhao used public funds to buy the cakes this time, which was even more generous.
While they were talking, two young men pushed a cart in. On the cart was a stainless steel bucket filled with mutton soup.
"The food delivery equipment in the canteen is quite complete." Jiang Yuan looked at it and praised it.
"The canteen usually has to deliver meals to the prisoners." Wu Junhao's spoon tapping the soup wall made a crisp sound, which immediately gave people a sense of familiarity with iron doors and iron windows.
Jiang Yuan smiled and said: "It's used by prisoners during the day and used by police at night. It's very efficient."
"That was before. When I was an apprentice, it was so fun to arrest people. How can it be like this now? I watch the surveillance video for half a night and can't find anything." Wu Junhao was dissatisfied.
He worked as a bodyguard and a nanny, but he didn't expect anything, and he was really a little impatient.
However, his mood was unstable for a moment, and he immediately began to apologize: "I was just talking nonsense. Sometimes you have to be lucky to catch people. This person may not be staying in a hotel."
As he spoke, Wu Junhao had an idea and said, "Could this person have gone to a prostitute somewhere? Find a phoenix tower, or a place where he stays for the night..."
"Captain Liu has already gone to look for him." The detective next to him reminded him.
Wu Junhao sighed regretfully: "Old Liu is still experienced!"
Jiang Yuan didn't have the nerve to smile and take a mouthful of mutton soup.
At three o'clock in the morning, fast carbs and fat are the absolute kings.
Michelin and non-hereditary people can't even work at a barbecue stall at three o'clock in the morning.
Or, to put it another way, why some people say that the food at barbecue stalls is more delicious than the food anywhere, that is because the body is cheering for fast carbon and fat.
The same food will not be so fragrant if you eat it at noon.
This scientific experiment supports multiple repeated tests for verification.
Jiang Yuan was also very hungry, and watching videos was quite exhausting.
After devouring a meat bun, Jiang Yuan took the time to pull up the progress bar and prepare to eat the cake while watching the surveillance.
They had just read the time period in the record column two or three times.
Jiang Yuan readjusted this time and moved the time to the day of the broadcast. From the afternoon, he played the video in the lobby of the Crowne Plaza Hotel, the largest hotel in Ningtai County, and then played it at double speed.
When he looked at it this way, he was actually staring at the shoes.
The previously determined strategy was to follow the flow of money and find guests who booked rooms with cash.
In this era, there are naturally very few customers who still use cash for transactions. If they match the age and body shape, they will be included as suspects and further screened.
But after sifting and sifting, there was no one left in the list of suspects.
Searching for a third or fourth time will actually make no qualitative change.
Everyone's judgment of the criminal suspect may be fundamentally wrong. The other party may not need to stay in a hotel, maybe he left Ningtai County directly, maybe he didn’t use cash to stay in the hotel...
Any possibility exists, but Jiang Yuan believes from the bottom of his heart that the criminal suspect will pursue a more comfortable lifestyle.
Because the criminal suspect who returns to the crime scene must be arrogant and arrogant in his heart.
He even dared to go back to the crime scene, and even dared to watch Jiang Yuan wipe away evidence for so long. Would he leave Ningtai County overnight?
Jiang Yuan thought so, took a sip of mutton soup, and directly set the progress bar to evening.
If the guess is correct, the suspect was watching Jiang Yuan mop the floor during the afternoon.
Therefore, if he wants to stay in a hotel, he can only stay at night.
In theory, there will be no change of clothes.
Because it is safer and more arrogant to take away the clothes worn at the crime scene and dispose of them.
Jiang Yuan tried to guess the other person's thoughts, chewing meat buns, and appeared in the video crowd with a pair of gray and white sneakers.
Jiang Yuan didn't even see the face in the video, but Jiang Yuan recognized the pair of shoes at a glance without having to zoom in.
Bi Ma Wei!
An unfashionable pair of shoes.
The careless naming method, the careless aesthetic design...
In the past few days, Jiang Yuan had been thinking about these shoes, and now he saw them again——
Jiang Yuan dropped the meat bun in his hand, pressed pause first, and then put the video into normal mode to watch.
Others noticed Jiang Yuan's movements and gathered around him.
"Tour group? Yes, tour groups go through registration procedures collectively." In the imaging office, Gao Jiansheng, who was watching the video with Jiang Yuan, slapped his thigh, feeling excited and painful.
"This person. His height, weight and age are consistent. He looks single. He is wearing KPMG, and his clothes and pants were bought at that discount store." Jiang Yuan pointed out the suspect in the video out.
This is an ordinary-looking middle-aged man. His face looks a bit old-fashioned, with small eyes, a small mouth, and a short haircut. At first glance, he looks like a security guard from an old neighborhood who has changed his clothes and gone home after work.
He looked quite calm on the outside. After entering the hotel lobby with the tour group, he handed his ID card to the tour guide. He stood in the crowd and listened to people talking, and occasionally spoke.
"He came all the way with the tour group." When Wu Junhao said this, his spine felt a little cold. This was a way of entry and exit that no one had thought of. If Jiang Yuan hadn't found the other person's shoes, it would have been impossible. Recognize people.
"This is a video from the day it was released. The tour group should have left Ningtai County." Wu Jun reminded in a deep voice.
Ningtai County is not a tourist city, it is mainly used as a transit point during travel. Some tour groups still visit Changyang City during the day and drag their members to stay in Ningtai County at night to save the huge accommodation gap between the two places.
For this reason, Ningtai County has also developed several artificial and semi-artificial scenic spots, which occasionally gain the favor of some tour groups.
But regardless of whether the service is good or not, no tour group will stay in Ningtai County for two days.
He must have left on the second day, and maybe he went somewhere for fun on the third day.
"Jiang Yuan, call Team Huang. The others will fix the evidence, pull out the suspect's ID card, and check the tour group's itinerary..." Wu Junhao pointed to a person and gave an order, causing the imaging office to quickly get into work. state.
