Chapter 1078 Hide and Seek
"The murderer is still hiding at the crime scene?"
Everyone understood Liu Jinghui's words, but most people were still a little unbelievable.
Liu Jinghui did not answer the question directly, only said: "We have now discovered that there are two murderers with a high probability. One of them is probably the prop master. He is already in the interrogation room, and he still refuses to explain for the time being. The other The footprints of the murderer do not match the characteristics of the crew members, which means there is one more person at the scene. If this person had no chance to leave after the murder, where could he be? "
"The imitation Ming Dynasty compound at the crime scene is very large and has complex architecture, so it can indeed hide people." Wang Chuanxing said.
Jiang Yuan also agreed with Liu Jinghui's words. This was not the first time he saw the murderer returning to the scene. He nodded and said: "The suspected murderer Wang Yuxian is still a prop master. He should be able to hide his accomplices well."
"Looking at it this way, last night... was probably the one who caused trouble early this morning. Can this also explain why? If they succeed in making trouble, or if a new crew moves in, the murderer hiding at the scene can take the opportunity to come out." Wang Chuanxing It also sorted out the ideas clearly.
Liu Jinghui raised the corner of his mouth and said: "The design is more exquisite than the one you mentioned. If the new crew comes in, the director will definitely be eager to film. If he is affected by the surveillance, he will definitely order the surveillance to be turned off. When the time comes, the murderer will be there again. Sneaking out, a layman would have no idea what was going on, it could be said that he was unaware of it. "
Mu Zhiyang said: "Looking at the surveillance video, you will find that there is a gap in time."
"Then let's see how the people who monitor the surveillance are doing. If the number of people is small, or if the people doing the work are not serious, and they are not watching from beginning to end at a uniform speed, they may not be able to realize it. Or, if this happens frequently, you may not be able to realize it. It's useless. It's not strange for the surveillance to be shut down for a short period of time. Without evidence, the detective police can't tell anything new. "Liu Jinghui is too familiar with the details of handling cases, and he is used to seeing mistakes.
The carelessness and stupidity of the investigators of some murder cases can even be described as ridiculous. Some of these cases were restored and summarized afterwards, and they were even written into papers and published publicly. To use a more popular expression: How many mistakes have you made at work?
Police officers are human beings too.
To put it more seriously, not only employees of private companies can fish, but also public servants.
Liu Jinghui believed in his own reasoning more than trusting a group of people.
The motorcade turned around and headed towards the film and television city.
By the time Jiang Yuan, Liu Jinghui and others rushed back to the Mingming compound in the film and television city, the police officers sent by Dai Mingsheng had already surrounded the compound.
This time it was a real siege, unlike before, where we had illusions about high walls and iron nets.
Even so, Liu Jinghui's first order when he arrived at the scene was to ask Liu Wenkai to go to the monitoring room in person and get all the latest surveillance videos.
According to deputy detachment leader Lin Xunlei, this set of surveillance systems was operating normally after the crew left, and no one should be able to come out again.
Liu Wenkai collected the surveillance video and took a few people to watch it backwards. If the murderer is a nimble guy and jumps out of the yard at this time, it will be really troublesome.
Soon, Dai Mingsheng rushed over and said, "I heard what Lao Lin said, what are you going to do? A big search or how? If too many people come in, the scene will be destroyed."
He already knew Jiang Yuan and others' case-solving methods. With more than 60 suspects, it was impossible to copy all the footprints in such a large venue, whether using a video recorder or taking footprints directly, especially those that overlapped. The existing technology can only photograph the footprints, and it will be meaningless to extract the footprints.
As a result, if more people enter the scene, it will be more difficult for Jiang Yuan to continue this investigation mode in the future.
On the other hand, the scene at this time was very well protected, and the entire process was made of transparent acrylic bridges, which fully reflected the financial resources of the Lanyue Municipal Bureau. But if you want to go in and conduct a search, it is impossible for everyone to work like a single-plank bridge.
Of course, it can also be said that catching the second person will solve the case, and there will be no need to preserve the scene, but this will be judged and decided by Jiang Yuan. Because the second person is still staying at the crime scene is Liu Jinghui's reasoning, and there is no solid evidence to prove it. Then, if the person is caught and the case is solved, it will be amazing. If the person is not caught, or if the person is caught, If you can get a conviction, it's a desperate move.
Jiang Yuan and Liu Jinghui looked at each other, and then said to Dai Mingsheng: "Even if the scene is destroyed, it will not be a big problem. We have almost done what we need to investigate. If there is a follow-up, we will probably have to look for other clues. However, , There’s no need for a big search, just call the police dog over.”
"Police dog? OK. I'm worried that the police dog running around on the ground will cause more damage to the scene." Dai Mingsheng explained.
Jiang Yuan waved his hand and said, "It's easy to distinguish between dog paws and human footprints, so don't worry."
"Okay. I'm going to call the police dog brigade over now." Dai Mingsheng yelled on the phone as soon as he went out.
After a while, three police dogs arrived at the scene in a minibus.
The minibus was a modified one, and it was the same minibus as the one Jiang Yuan and others took in front of them. When they arrived at the place, the number of people and dogs that came out was about the same. The three police dogs are two German shepherds and one Labrador, with handlers, as well as the captain and political commissar of the police dog brigade.
The three dogs were given a few words of training, and then they were led into Fang Ming's compound. With a few barks of barking, the day's work began.
Mu Zhiyang was wearing a bulletproof vest and a bulletproof cap, with the Type 79 hanging directly on his chest. He followed Jiang Yuan closely, looking at the dogs from a distance, and said: "It's not easy for these police dogs. In such a hot day, the floor They’re all burned in the sun, and they still have to run around.”
Wen Ming wore exactly the same attire as Mu Zhiyang, but instead of carrying a Type 79, he wore a Type 92 pistol in his waist and an extra electric shock baton. Listening to Mu Zhiyang's words, Wen Ming couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth and said, "It's not easy for police dogs. They rest once an hour and are taken care of by dedicated personnel. They don't have to worry about eating or drinking..."
"Then you also get a bottle of salt soda to drink." Mu Zhiyang was unmoved and said while observing the surroundings.
"Not thirsty yet. However, we must maintain our condition." Wen Ming's expression was quite serious at this time, and he said: "If the murderer pounces, it will only happen in an instant. Don't be unable to react."
Mu Zhiyang was stunned and couldn't help wiping his sweat: "You stole my line."
Wen Ming chuckled: "I'm tired of hearing what you said. Let me help you."
"What you said makes sense." Mu Zhiyang nodded, then nodded in front and said, "Then you are walking in front, do you want to bring a shield?"
"Forget it, if you really pounce, the small shield is useless. I am the shield." Wen Ming did not hesitate, took out the swinging stick, and said: "You should keep an eye on me from behind."
"Don't worry." Mu Zhiyang said solemnly, grabbing the handle of the Type 79 gun.
The two talked about it and distributed the work content appropriately. Wen Ming had never had a chance to shoot, and he had even less experience in being shot. He held the gun from behind. When the situation was most dangerous, he might misjudge the situation out of nervousness.
On the contrary, Wen Ming was in front, faced the danger by himself, and it was okay to subconsciously do some protective actions. The murderer most likely does not hold a gun. In this case, even if he carries a knife, the danger is controllable.
In addition to Mu Zhiyang and Wen Ming, several other criminal policemen spread out to protect Jiang Yuan and Liu Jinghui. This shows that the building is very spacious for living or shooting, but it is still insufficient for a large group of people to move around.
The two people who really stood beside Jiang Yuan were Mu Zhiyang and Wen Ming.
Jiang Yuan began to try to enter each house.
Most of the rooms in this Ming Dynasty compound are fake, often with only doors and windows, and at most a section of space when entering. Even so, the few square meters inside the door and the furniture inside are enough to hide a person.
Jiang Yuan and others had not paid much attention to these small rooms before. Except for a few rooms set aside as dressing rooms, most of the small rooms had nothing to do with the work of the crew, let alone the victims.
But when it comes to hide-and-seek, the situation is reversed.
"How is it?" Dai Mingsheng coordinated the situation of various units and rushed to Jiang Yuan immediately.
"Nothing has been found yet." Jiang Yuan then asked: "How is the police dog doing?"
"We haven't found anything yet." Demingsheng replied.
Mu Zhiyang couldn't help but smile: "We and the police dogs are at the same progress."
None of the people in front of me laughed.
Demingsheng didn't understand the comparison with dogs. He just said: "The three dogs have sniffed the whole yard, and so far they have found nothing."
"The dog's progress is faster than ours?" Mu Zhiyang translated.
Dai Mingsheng said helplessly: "Under normal circumstances, in such a large space, if three dogs are looking for people, they can't find them. Among these three dogs, there is a German Shepherd who has been professionally trained to find people."
Jiang Yuan nodded slowly and asked again: "Have you sniffed everywhere in the yard?"
"Yes, sniffed them all."
"Then let's focus on the west side." Jiang Yuan suddenly made a decision, and without waiting for Dai Mingsheng to ask, he explained: "No. 3, the outermost room in the West Cross Courtyard, obviously has signs of reorganization, and the ground has been pried. It has been opened. There are several other rooms with similar situations, but from a time point of view, the one in room 3 was the most recent, and it was done within the past two weeks. "
Demingson immediately understood: "Only by creating a relatively confined space underground can it be possible to avoid the sniffing of police dogs."
"I can only say that it is easiest to do it underground." As Jiang Yuan spoke, he began to move westward.
Mu Zhiyang quickly used the walkie-talkie to contact someone, and so did Dai Mingsheng.
Soon, a group of policemen surrounded Room 3 in the West Cross Courtyard, and then someone came in with construction machinery.
"Are there any footprints?" Liu Jinghui asked quietly, standing next to Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan shook his head slightly: "Cleaned."
"Maybe it was to clean the ground or something, and I cleaned up the footprints by the way." Liu Jinghui quickly analyzed the result, and then said: "Looking at it this way, there is really something suspicious about this place. Team Shepherd, you have to be careful too. ”
"If he dares to pounce, I'll give him a shot." Mu Zhiyang's hand fell next to the submachine gun.
"one two three……"
Two workers made a call, and a large piece of fake blue bricks on the ground was lifted up, revealing a manhole cover underneath.
