Chapter 577: Looking for someone on the trail
after lunch.
Jiang Yuan rested in the dormitory for a while. When it was time to go to work, he heard a noise in the yard.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yuan asked Wang Chuanxing, who had come over to watch the excitement.
Wang Chuanxing watched the excitement and said: "The first case we did in the morning was about stealing agricultural supplies. The imaging office found a Wuling Hongguang and followed the license plate to the car owner's house. Now the car owner's family and relatives have followed. , only the car owner didn’t come.”
"The steel pipe in the vegetable field, have you found the steel pipe?" Jiang Yuan asked.
"did not find."
"There is a driver in the photo of the card. Is the driver the owner of the car? Isn't he here?"
"The driver is the owner of the car and didn't come over."
"A little clever." Jiang Yuan commented. If the victim is not present, you cannot arrest the person, let alone try him in absentia, which leaves room for mischief.
Wang Chuanxing said: "Isn't there a lack of evidence, so you are so arrogant? There are five cousins in the family, and there are also three brothers in my father's generation, as well as two uncles. There are 10 men alone. I heard that there are also uncles and so on. Come here."
While talking, the instructor also saw Jiang Yuan, came over helplessly, and said: "I guess we will continue to struggle this afternoon. This family is a mess, and they don't understand the law. They just make trouble."
The instructor looked at Jiang Yuan as he spoke, half wishing that he would spit.
The case value of a dozen steel pipes is not high and cannot meet the hard conditions of 3,000 yuan. Theoretically, the case must be filed if the case value is 5,000 yuan, but there is still room for negotiation. Just like now, if the trouble is too fierce, it seems that you can calm down first to avoid causing greater losses.
Jiang Yuan smiled and said: "It's not like this family doesn't understand the law. Besides, it should be considered a social consensus that you can't steal things. Even those who don't understand the law should know this."
"What you are saying is that most people don't care about them anymore." Seeing that Jiang Yuan was not very happy, the instructor explained: "From the look of the victim, he probably didn't want to make a fuss. They live in the village, and they don't want to cause trouble." I don’t want to offend this Jin family…”
"In criminal cases, it doesn't matter whether the victim thinks about it or not." Jiang Yuan himself was born in a rural area and knew what the instructor was worried about. A family with several brothers and many relatives would be very powerful in the countryside even if they were not village tyrants. If a family member is sent to jail, those who are not convinced will definitely go to the victim's house to find trouble in the next period of time.
Forget it if it's a big case. This kind of case only lasts for a few months. When the person comes out, he still has to go to the victim's house to find compensation. By then, the police station will be constantly dispatching police officers to mediate, and they will be exhausted.
If the Jin family is really reckless, it will be easier to deal with. If they are imprisoned for another crime such as provoking quarrels and provoking trouble, they will probably be clean for a while. But if they pass by and throw manure today and throw two rabbits into your vegetable patch tomorrow, the victim's family will only feel more miserable.
However, Jiang Yuan looked at the menacing appearance of this family and did not want to let them go easily.
This family is a little too arrogant. They dare to go to the police station to cause trouble even though they know they are in the wrong...
Jiang Yuan said: "If we in Ningtai rural area don't have demolition funds, most of them will go out to work. Why do all the young people of this family stay in the village? How do they make a living?"
"Let's open a shop." The instructor hit the wall twice and didn't bother to care about the matter. He just kept away from himself and said: "I asked the local police stationed in the village. The Jin family mainly opens shops in the countryside. There are some relatives. They went to Qinghe and Ningtai counties to open stores, and some were in the neighboring villages, doing everything, but this time they came together."
"The clothes are pretty good and I can afford a car." Jiang Yuan commented.
"Is business doing okay?"
"Maybe." Jiang Yuan didn't believe it.
Rural residents generally don't have much cash, and even if they open a shop, the money they can make is limited. The situation of this family is obviously better than average. And judging from their current language and way of doing things, it is obvious that they do not rely purely on intellectual or physical investment to obtain income.
"Go and call Mu Zhiyang over." Jiang Yuan said to Wang Chuanxing.
Wang Chuanxing nodded, went out without saying a word, and led Mu Zhiyang back.
"You two have to do something. First find some floating soil and spread it in the yard. Then call the Jin family aside in batches and ask them to pass by the floating soil and take pictures of their footprints." Jiang Yuan paused and then said: " It might not be easy to take pictures, so I’ll just stand in front of it and keep an eye on it.”
Wang Chuanxing and Mu Zhiyang immediately nodded and went to do it.
The instructor looked on with confusion.
"Instructor. If it's convenient for you, find two people to pour some water for the Jin family. We will collect the water cups and the like later and take some fingerprints?" Jiang Yuan asked again.
The instructor finally understood what was going on and couldn't help but said: "Are you suspecting that there are other cases?"
"It's not too big of a deal to watch the excitement." Jiang Yuan didn't need to explain to him, he just smiled and said: "Hitting the child on a rainy day is also idle. I'll go there first."
After saying hello, he went to the open space next to the yard and stood there, as if he was just watching the fun.
After a while, Mu Zhiyang and Wang Chuanxing brought two boxes of soil and spread it carefully in the middle of the yard.
Then, Mu Zhiyang stopped in a shady corner, took a notebook, and waited for Wang Chuanxing to call someone over.
The first time Wang Chuanxing called someone, four people came over together. Passing by the courtyard in the middle, the footprints of several people were clearly visible, and their gaits were clear.
Wang Chuanxing looked at Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan nodded imperceptibly.
The four of them reached the corner and were pulled away a few meters, but they didn't behave themselves. They pricked their ears and made sure to listen to the questions Mu Zhiyang asked.
Mu Zhiyang simply asked a few basic questions such as name, age, mobile phone number and so on.
The four of them were inexplicably taken back from the other side by Wang Chuanxing. Mu Zhiyang took the opportunity to take photos and matched the footprints with the names.
After a while, Wang Chuanxing brought out two more people.
It’s exactly the same approach.
As a result, the Jin family became proud, and everyone who came over would walk with their arms swung.
A total of more than a dozen people came to the Jin family. Jiang Yuan waited to see them all before turning back to the office.
Mu Zhiyang and Wang Chuanxing put away their notes and took a few more photos in the yard, then swept the yard and returned to the office.
As for taking fingerprints arranged by the instructor, Jiang Yuan didn't take it too seriously. Taking fingerprints is a simple matter. The key point is to take all ten fingerprints. It is a little difficult, but if necessary, there are ways to go back.
"What are you doing now?" Wang Chuanxing and Mu Zhiyang returned to the office, still slightly excited and somewhat guessing Jiang Yuan's thoughts.
"Let's look at the cases in the village where the Jin family lives. Those with footprints from the past few years should be looked at first."
Jiang Yuan's focus is on footprints. Because modern people actually know that fingerprints will reveal their own information, so ordinary stupid criminals also know how to hide their fingerprints.
Moreover, compared with cases in cities, fingerprints in the countryside are more difficult to preserve and therefore more difficult to use to solve crimes.
Footprints are different. It is almost difficult for ordinary people to hide their footprints. Just think about sweeping away the footprints while walking. Crime is actually a very hard thing. For example, stealing things at night usually involves walking in the dark in the dead of night. You can walk thousands of steps in one night.
Walking through the top 10 in a circle of friends is quite tiring in itself, but you have to bend down and sweep the floor? What if I’m moving something big? For example, in the case where the steel pipes were lost just now, you can't sweep the floor when moving the steel pipes. Do you sweep the floor after you are sweating after moving? How did Heitian know where he came from just now? Turn on the flashlight to see?
If you were killing someone, it might be worth cleaning up the scene carefully, but if you just stole a dozen steel pipes, and the amount involved was one or two thousand yuan, you don't know if they had anything. If it was so hard, you might as well work in a factory. It's okay to set up a night market.
The most important thing is that this may not be useful, but it may expose more information.
In comparison, there are only a few high-end trace inspections that can use footprint identification. If you are lucky, you will not encounter it.
Anyone who meets Jiang Yuan is simply unlucky.
Jiang Yuan went directly to the software background to find out if there were photos of footprints in the cases in Litang Township.
It is quite troublesome to find people through their footprints, but on the other hand, if we first have the person's footprints and then compare them with the photos, wouldn't the database problem be solved?
If the Jin family is clean and self-sufficient, and doesn't do anything sneaky or perverted, then Jiang Yuan's efforts will be in vain.
Or find another one that is not as strong in footprint identification, such as Chen Wenming, a footprint expert in Qinghe City who is responsible for trace inspection. He may need to repeatedly check with photos to identify a footprint, so this method is a bit time-consuming.
But for Jiang Yuan, flipping through a photo of footprints in ten seconds was just that.
"Hey, I caught one." Within half an hour, Jiang Yuan laughed.
The instructor holding the fingerprints he took happened to come in. Looking at Jiang Yuan's smile, his heartbeat slowed down for some reason.
