Chapter 455: Eliminate all impossibilities
Detectives are everywhere.
Investigating backlogged cases is the most labor-intensive. Especially for this kind of old case with unclear purpose, just making the inquiry transcript will take longer than the current case. It takes time to recall what happened 8 years ago, and it needs supporting evidence to confirm. Even if you write more than ten pages, you may not be able to do it. get the point.
Making inquiry transcripts is relatively easy, but finding someone may be more troublesome, difficult, and time-consuming.
If such a murder case is completed, maybe several missing persons will be found.
The criminal policemen of the Qu'an County Bureau had no complaints. They worked in teams of two and a half, all busy, pressing orders, asking questions one by one, looking for people, and re-checking the information from that year.
The captain of the criminal police brigade was also sitting in the middle. He didn't go home for three days in a row. He sat in the conference room every day, constantly talking on the phone, smoking, communicating, smoking, smoking, smoking. .
morning.
Liu Jinghui, who had slept in the office, crawled out of his sleeping bag and found the criminal police captain with wide eyes, holding up several A4 papers in his hand and looking at them. He couldn't help feeling sad.
He was experienced, so he couldn't help but kindly remind him: "Old Han, you can't do this. At least go home and sleep at night. Madam-in-law has been waiting for you for a day or two. Why are you staying up all day and night? OK."
"You haven't gone back either." Captain Han's eyes were as bright as matrix headlights.
Liu Jinghui chuckled: "My home is in Changyang City, and I'm here on a business trip."
"It only takes more than an hour to get to Changyang quickly. It's not too much to go back every three days!"
"Isn't there a traffic jam in Changyang City? We still have to travel for an hour or two."
Captain Han sneered: "If you work overtime all day long and don't have the qualifications to come back at a time when there is no traffic jam when you go home, what's the point of being in this class?"
When Liu Jinghui said "Hey", he grew three inches taller.
"I realize that you really sound like my wife!"
"Wife of the same style." Captain Han curled his lips: "You will get scolded when you go back one day, and you will get scolded when you go back three days. It is better to wait for a week or two, and then go back and think of yourself."
Liu Jinghui looked at Captain Han sympathetically: "It's not easy for you."
"What's not easy about being a criminal police officer? It's good to be alive. If you can solve the case, if you can solve the case for us, I will be happy." Captain Han's eyes were red from the heat, and he looked like It seems to be true feelings, but in fact there is no emotion at all, it is all skills.
Of course, his eagerness to solve the case is real.
The impact of the station bombing is still very large. Now that there is an opportunity to solve it, everyone in the Qu'an County Bureau cherishes the opportunity.
Otherwise, they would not have warmly invited Jiang Yuan to take up the case despite the risk of being scolded by other county bureaus.
There is no doubt about Jiang Yuan's fame, and even Liu Jinghui is actually quite famous as well. Normally it would be difficult to invite one of them to come over, but now they were able to invite two of them at once, without the need to mobilize before the war. The detectives in Qu'an all knew that the opportunity was not to be missed. qqxδnew
Furthermore, the policemen in Qu'an also knew roughly how much it cost to hire Jiang Yuan, and Captain Han even knew what he had paid.
Using the NBA as an example, they are equivalent to first-round picks and second-round picks in the next few years, plus several role players, replacing Jiang Yuan.
And it’s a matter of priority.
It's quite a loss when I think about it, but that's how the immediate combat power is. You can either win on your own, or you can trade the future to win today, or you want to lose everything.
From Captain Han's point of view, if you don't use up such an expensive thing now, will you have nowhere to go shopping overseas in the future?
In fact, in normal years, there is no need to worry about normal cases, and it does not require so much funds, so many personnel, so many vehicles, so many instruments and equipment, so many police equipment... Just give it to each person. That's good!
Captain Han sighed heavily: "The list has shrunk very quickly. From the beginning to just a few pages, there has been no powerful news."
Liu Jinghui knew what he meant
Thinking, "En" said: "Sometimes it is like this."
"Can you still find it?"
"If you can't find it this time, just go ahead and do it. You are also an old criminal police captain. That's how you solve cases."
Liu Jinghui sighed helplessly.
Compared with other violent cases, the suspect in the bombing case is quite special. He must first master relevant knowledge. Even if he has not learned it, he must have basic learning ability and learning foundation. In this case, the murderer must at least know some common sense as an electrician and be able to twist two wires together.
The actual requirements must be higher. The explosion in this case is actually somewhat innovative. Without several years of relatively professional training, it is impossible to think of using this method. Even if it is copied, this information cannot be obtained by just reading newspapers. At the very least, the murderer must have read some reviews of the books.
Based on the minimum standards, the murderer must be literate, able to read, have knowledge of electrical engineering, and understand some basic principles of explosions - don't underestimate these requirements, as it can filter out most people on the list. This is like using 985 to sift 857, 90% of them will be screened out casually.
The reduction in the list of suspects naturally makes people feel heavy. With this kind of screening method, the most expected situation is to screen in the middle and the results will appear. It is very rare that the results will come out at the end of the screening.
We are not really doing random algorithms. At the beginning, we may be following the list. In actual operation, we must be looking for the most likely suspects. In the end, when there is only one person left on the list, The probability of finding it is very low.
From Captain Han's point of view, in these three days, hundreds of people in his own team have worked in vain.
In other words, it has become a trial and error cost.
Although Captain Han had nothing to complain about, he still couldn't help but sigh: "Liu Chu, you made two judgments, saying that the murderer may have committed a crime later, or committed a crime elsewhere. I originally agreed with it, but If we do it now, will we miss something?"
He looked at Liu Jinghui, expecting Liu Jinghui to give a firm answer.
However, Liu Jinghui, who had just woken up early, was not a virgin who was doing psychological massage. He threw out a cold sentence: "It is very possible that something went wrong, but there is nothing you can do about it. You can only follow other methods." The plan has been started again.”
Captain Han looked at Liu Jinghui with a resentful expression, as if his person was as cold as his sleeping bag and the hoarfrost outside the window.
A set of resentful eyes full of skills, but it still had some effect.
Liu Jinghui moved slightly, sighed, and said: "Let me just say that from my experience, multiple lists of multiple plans will actually overlap. The murderer cannot only appear in one list, then It's a test of luck. The most likely scenario is that the murderer keeps appearing in our field of vision, and there will always be an opportunity for us to lock him in."
"What's the use of talking about these theories now? Let's be more practical." Captain Han said.
"Really..." Liu Jinghui was forced to have no choice.
He simply said: "It depends on how realistic you want to be. If you want something real, just look for Jiang Yuan."
While talking, Jiang Yuan and Mu Zhiyang pushed the door open and came in.
"Oh, Liu Chu and Han Da are here. Did you all sleep here last night?" Mu Zhiyang said the unconventional words with an innocent face.
Captain Han's face sank, I'm the one you dare to tease?
Liu Jinghui coughed twice and said, "Did Xiao Mu sleep with Jiang Yuan last night?"
Captain Han's expression immediately changed. If this is the case...
"The list has no results." Liu Jinghui said again, mobilizing Captain Han's mind.
Jiang Yuan was also immediately attracted attention.
"Have they been ruled out?" Jiang Yuan asked.
"Basically." Liu Jinghui said.
Jiang Yuan was also a little disappointed: "It seems that reasoning doesn't work either."
"Ah... who said reasoning can't work!" Liu Jinghui couldn't bear this anymore, and hissed at the corner of his mouth, putting on a Sherlock Holmes-like smile:
"Let me think about it."
Jiang Yuan signaled to Mu Zhiyang, and the two of them sat at the conference table, took out the photos that they had not read yesterday from the safe, and then read them one by one.
It has been several days since the start, and Jiang Yuan has not even read the photos and files. You can imagine the scale of the investigation during the current case. It just didn't work.
a long time.
Liu Jinghui pondered and said: "Logically speaking, if the investigation cannot go any further from the motive of the crime, we should follow the investigation method, but... the previous task force has investigated this part very thoroughly. "
Liu Jinghui looked at Jiang Yuan as he spoke, and said slowly: "With the current level of investigation, I think we can come up with the sentence commonly used in reasoning."
"Which sentence?"
"After all the impossibilities have been eliminated, what remains, no matter how incredible, is the truth!" When Liu Jinghui said these words, his whole body was covered with golden light.
As a reasoning person, just thinking about this sentence can make the hair on your body stand up with excitement.
Unfortunately, there were only a few pragmatic detectives at the scene, as calm as Muggles.
Captain Han was the oldest and was controlled by the human sophistication of adults. He sighed and said, "Liu Chu, can you tell me more specifically?"
Liu Jinghui nodded with satisfaction and said: "After this case was judged to be an explosion targeting an unspecified number of people, it can be said that it was screened again and again. In the past few days, we also took the time factor into consideration and re-screened it." Once, but found nothing."
Liu Jinghui made a fist with one hand, smashed it lightly, and said:
"That being the case, I think we can rule out bombings targeting unspecified people!"
"What do you mean?" Captain Han was stunned.
"What if it's a case against a specific person?" Liu Jinghui's voice deepened and he said, "What if we just treat this case as an ordinary murder case?"
