Chapter 4 third chapter

Seven or eight police cars lined up there, blocking the two-lane Fengqi Road, and all social vehicles entering Fengqi Road had to make a U-turn. The scene has been cordoned off and the police are gathered. A few tens of meters away, more common people gather around and discuss. At this time, another five police cars drove in and stopped. Guo Hongen, the director of the County Public Security Bureau, and a man who looked like a leader led a team of policemen over. Guo Hongen clapped his hands, called all the policemen on the scene, and pointed The thirty-six or seven-year-old man next to him introduced: "This is Police Officer Gao Dong, Director of the Second Criminal Investigation Department of the City Bureau and Chief Instructor of the Criminal Investigation Department. Everyone knows the name of the Gao Bureau, so I will not introduce it. This case is provincial and municipal. The leaders of the two levels issued emergency instructions early in the morning, and the city has set up a special case team, with Gao Bureau as the team leader. From now on, the reconnaissance operations will be fully in charge of the Gao Bureau, and everyone in the bureau must fully cooperate with the Gao Bureau, you know?"

"Sure." Many people responded together. Then, the leaders of the county bureau, big and small, stepped forward, declared their names and positions, and shook hands with Gao Dong respectively. The place where they are located is called Baixiang County. In small county towns, the capabilities and equipment of the police are limited. When major criminal cases occur, people from above are often brought in for investigation, and they are only assisting.In this regard, they are accustomed to it and will not have any objections.Moreover, they were both in the public security system, and had heard of Gao Dong's name in the city bureau. He was a provincial criminal investigation expert who had solved dozens of major cases and had a high reputation.

What's more, apart from Gao Dong himself being a department-level cadre, his father-in-law is the Secretary of the Municipal Law Committee and the seventh member of the city's leadership team. He has an absolutely powerful background. No matter who he is with, Gao Dong handles the interpersonal relationship very well. After he greeted everyone politely, he will not be extra polite. After all, this time the situation is urgent, so he has to get into the situation immediately and ask Captain Chen of the County Criminal Investigation Team at the scene. : "When was the body found?"

"At 4:30 in the morning, when a cleaner passed by, the Audi car was parked and the door was half-open. The cleaner looked around and found Ju Li in the driver's seat, and immediately called the police. The cleaner had already brought him back to the bureau. Take detailed notes." "The crime happened last night, why didn't we find it in the morning?" "It may have been midnight when the incident occurred, and there were no pedestrians. All the people passing this section of the road were driving. They didn't notice that there was something unusual about the Audi parked next to it."

"The family members of the deceased thought it was strange that the deceased did not return all night?" "Ju Li is the leader. The leader sometimes goes out to socialize, and it's normal to be late. I just asked Li Ju's wife. She said that last night Li Ju called and told her to have a drink with friends tonight, and she might be late. She didn't care. Then I went to bed first. I didn’t know about it until early in the morning.” "The deceased is your deputy chief, Li Aiguo?" "Ok." "Which job does he manage?" "Usually responsible for security management."

"Is he in charge alone? Or are several other deputy directors in charge together?" "He alone is responsible for security cases." "What do the other deputy directors do?" Captain Chen glanced at a deputy director next to him, and said, "There are four deputy directors in total. Except for Director Li, Director Zhang—" He extended his hand to the side and instructed, and Director Zhang smiled and nodded at Gao Dong, "Director Zhang is in charge of criminal investigation. The case. The other two are... in charge of various aspects, they are about to retire, they came to the scene just now, and now they are going back to deal with the aftermath."

Gao Dong nodded. He understood that when the two soon-to-retire deputy directors said they were "in charge of all aspects", they actually didn't care about anything. He asked again: "Are there many people who know about this case?" "Why do many people know?" Captain Chen didn't understand what he meant. Gao Dong turned his head and pointed to the crowd in the distance: "Do the common people know about it?" Captain Chen nodded: "The matter is too big, especially, especially that picture, many people have seen it, and it spread very quickly."

"Oh, you have to be careful, tell the media not to report, the impact is too bad. Whoever dares to report, directly interview the person in charge." Captain Chen asked cautiously: "Where are the people from other places?" Gao Dong said meaningfully: "You can figure it out." Guo Hongen turned to the deputy director surnamed Zhang: "Old Zhang, you need to go to this matter yourself, talk to the county, and then inform Weiwei to handle it." Bureau Zhang nodded and said "I know", then went to the outer circle and made a phone call. Gao Dong then asked, "Is the scene well protected?"

"It should be considered good. The cleaner saw the dead man in the car through the car window and was frightened. He didn't even touch the door." Gao Dongen made a sound, and looked at the black Audi parked in front of him. The doors of the front and passenger seats were all open.He asked, "Has the forensic doctor from the county come here?" "Well, I've been here." Gao Dong nodded to express his satisfaction: "I brought a few forensic experts from the city bureau along with me later." As he spoke, he took out his rubber gloves and put them on, came to the car door, and looked inside carefully. There was a lot of blood on the driver's seat. Take it?"

Captain Chen glanced at it and said, "No, it wasn't there in the first place." Gao Dong felt a little uncomfortable in his heart: "Have you taken all the fingerprints in the car?" "Well, I collected them all." "Where's the doorknob?" "The forensic doctor said that there were no fingerprints on the door handle, and it was suspected that someone had erased it." "Fingerprints have been wiped," Gao Dong muttered, frowned, then turned around and said, "Have all the suspicious footprints on the ground been extracted?" .

"I took it, but..." "But what?" "There were no footprints on either side of the door." "Because of the concrete floor?" Gao Dong has been a criminal police officer for so many years, so he naturally knows common sense. It is difficult to keep footprints intact on a clean concrete floor. But he looked at the road here, because there is barren land next to it, and there is a lot of sand on the side of the road. , the footprints should also be able to stay. Captain Chen said: "The forensic doctor said that the footprints on the cement floor were intentionally destroyed by the murderer. In addition, a footprint was found in the nearby field, which should be left by the murderer when he fled the scene. It's just—" "But what?" "The footprints are not normal." Gao Dong followed Captain Chen to the edge of the farmland, and squatted down. A very long footprint could be vaguely seen here, extending all the way.But when he took a closer look, he found that the footprints on the ground were huge, about the size of 47 shoes. What a big foot!And the prints are deep and clear, but the soles are completely flat and there are no shoe prints. Gao Dong frowned and remained silent. Captain Chen continued: "This line of footprints has gone all the way to the water on the other side of the farm." Gao Dong looked around, and there was a long ditch in front of the field, the length of which was endless. If the murderer got into the ditch, it would be impossible to verify where he landed afterwards. Gao Dong pursed his lips. This case might be more complicated than he expected.He stood up, returned to the Audi car, and said, "Where is the body now?" "In the forensic lab." "How many wounds are there on the body?" "At first glance, there is only one heart." "What killed it?" "It may be some kind of sharp object. It pierced into the chest and heart. No murder weapon was found at the scene. We are sending people to search around." "The time of death hasn't come out yet?" "Well, I only know that it was last night, and the exact time needs to be investigated." Gao Dong pressed his chin with his hands, thinking: "The case happened in the car, so it should be committed by an acquaintance." He had a direction in his mind, "No wonder the floor mats are taken away, the material of the floor mats in the car is rubber. Yes, it is easy to leave clues about the murderer, and it seems that the murderer has strong anti-detection capabilities. It is not an ordinary murder." Captain Chen said: "Ju Gao, it's a little strange, there is no sign of a fight in the car." Gao Dong turned around suddenly, and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on? There's only so much space in the car, and the murderer stabbed the murder weapon into the deceased's heart without a fight?" "Well... It seems so now, and we still have to wait for the forensic identification." Gao Dong let out a sigh of relief. According to the current general situation, how the deceased was killed is a mystery. There was no murder weapon at the scene, no fingerprints on the door handle, and the large footprint of No. 47 on the ground was obviously fake. No useful fingerprints will be found either. At present, he can only guess that the murderer is an acquaintance who committed the crime, and there are no other useful witnesses or physical evidence, which is really a bit troublesome. After thinking for a moment, he turned his head and asked, "Is that banner there?" "Yes, I was afraid that the common people would talk about it too much, so I put it away, and I will go get it now." Captain Chen took out a roll of white cloth from a police car. After unfolding it, there were red artistic characters written on it. Although Gao Dong already knew about it, he was still shocked when he saw the banner with his own eyes.Not only him, but all the public security personnel present were shocked. The banner reads: "Killing the chief is enough to kill fifteen, but the chief is not enough to make up for the section chief." This was the worst and most outrageous case he had ever encountered since he was a police officer. Gao Dong walked out of the crime scene expressionlessly, and glanced at the crowd. It is said that within 36 hours after the murder, 50% of the murderers will return to the scene. Maybe the murderer is hiding in the crowd at this moment.Of course, he knew that he was not sharp-eyed, even if the murderer was one of them in front of him, he would not find out, he just instinctively wanted to see if anyone looked sneaky. Of course, the guy who dared to do this case has a very good psychological quality, and the sneaky ones are not at this level. His eyes moved back and forth among the crowd a few times at random, and then turned in one direction.He narrowed his pupils slightly to make his eyes more focused, he was identifying, and at the same time grabbed the previous pictures in his memory. That person... that person... Gao Dong walked forward involuntarily. Standing in the crowd, Xu Ce saw the leader of the police force looking towards him, and then realized that the man was staring at him. After a while, he walked straight towards him, and his heart beat faster. But after a while, his mind immediately told himself, don't be nervous, no one will know that I did it now, relax, relax...it's okay... "Xu...Xu Ce!" Gao Dong finally recognized this familiar man, and exclaimed in surprise. Xu Ce stared at his face for a while, and after a while, he finally recognized him: "Gao...Gao...Old Gao..." He couldn't remember his name all of a sudden, he only remembered the surname Gao, a person of this age, Calling him "Old Gao" is never wrong. "Haha, old classmate," Gao Dong led Xu Ce out of the crowd, to a corner beside him, and said with a smile, "I can't remember my name, Gao Dong, haha, old Xu, I always remember your name It's tight." "Oh, is that so?" Xu Ce smiled faintly. Gao Dong was not surprised either. Xu Ce has always been a little withdrawn, and his emotions are always calm. He asked, "Aren't you in the United States, why are you back?" "I'm tired of staying abroad for a long time, and I want to come back and find something to do. For now, I will rest at home for the time being." "Well, that's fine, hehe, we haven't seen each other for over ten years." "It should be eleven years. Are you in charge of this case?" Gao Dong patted his forehead with a distressed expression: "I can't help it, I have to work again for a while." The corners of Xu Ce's mouth curled up slightly, and he said, "After solving this big case, you can be promoted again, right?" "Hehe, it's not that easy. Look, I'm quite busy today. I have a meeting later. Where do you live and how many phones do you have? After I'm done, I'll meet you for a few days. For a long time, among so many classmates , I admire you the most." Gao Dong patted him on the shoulder. Xu Ce reported his mobile phone number and address to him. Gao Dong chatted a few more words, and left with other police officers, leaving three or four to maintain the site.
