D F T F Chapter 56: Faux indices?

Although the series of thefts was complicated, it was the subject of a methodical investigation under the auspices of Zheng Kaixuan, and it did not stop Xu Yan, the first person who informed the theft of his house is came twice to inquire about the development of the case during this period. Her father is going to be operated on tomorrow, and she was very anxious and hoped the matter would be settled today.

Members of the office of the Qingdao Criminal Investigation Branch were investigated separately, and Zheng Kaixuan could not set the exact time to resolve the case without analysis and conclusion.

By three in the afternoon, the first group has already completed the transcripts of several people with backgrounds who have been called to the office. The second group, Li Hui, Zhao Ming, and Tian Li, also checked all the surveillance camera recordings.

At three in the afternoon, Zheng Kaixuan called everyone in the meeting room and prepared to summarize the facts of the case. The clues are not straightforward. Sometimes they cannot confirm the evidence found to point to a suspect more precisely.

Time is running out, and Zheng Kaixuan had no opening clues and directly asked, "Li Hui, has your investigation group found anything?"

"We checked the recordings of the elevator, gate, and underground garage surveillance cameras before and after the time the crime was committed, but we did not find any traces of suspicious people," Li Hui said.

"Lighten up a bit."

"Yes, Captain." Li Hui nodded and analyzed, "We assume that the reason why the suspect did not appear in surveillance should have two possibilities. The first possibility is the suspect has not left the community, or even he is. One of the residents of the community,"

"Keep on going."

“The second possibility; if the spider-man committed this series of crimes. The Linfang community contained stores on the second floor. If the suspect entered one of these stores, he can leave without going through the portal and exit directly from the surrounding stores." Li Hui explained.

"Captain Zhao, what do you think?" Zheng Kaixuan asked.

“We made transcripts for people with a history of theft, including spider-man Zhang Deshui. Based on his testimony, we investigated his whereabouts. If at the time of the crime, he was not in town, and we went to the mountains to inquire about the students climbing. We can dismiss the suspicion," Zhao Ying said.

"At present, are there any other suspects?" Zheng Kaixuan asked.

“According to the clues provided by Zhang Deshui, after his release from prison, someone had looked for him and questioned him about his theft and climbing experience. I think this person is also very suspicious.”

"Do you know the identity of this person?"

"Zhang Deshui doesn't know him, and he only knows his nickname is Yongzi."

"What do you think?"

“According to current clues, the suspect should have entered the room through a window, and high altitude flight requires high bodily quality of the suspect. I think this is a very important direction of the investigation,” Zhao Ying analyzed.

"Yeah," Zheng Kaixuan nodded, "Check this nicknamed Yongzi."

"I sent someone to check."

Zheng Kaixuan glanced at the group of policemen present and looked at Zhao Ying who was waiting for his informant and didn't say anything else.

"Knock Knock."

There was a knock on the door outside the meeting room, then Han Bin opened the door and entered.

"Captain Zheng, Captain Zhao."

"You are finally back," Zheng Kaixuan pointed to the chair next to the meeting table and motioned for Han Bin to sit down: "You looked at the scene again. What did you find?"

Han Bin picked up the mineral water from the side and took a sip, "I couldn't find anything."

"You didn't find anything, you, my child had been running outside all day long," Zheng Kaixuan hummed.

"I went to the scene this time around and inspected the area around the window again to see if the suspect left any obvious shoe prints when he climbed. There are no prints shoes for climbing," Han Bin said.

“The exterior walls of the building are relatively hard. As long as the soles are not dirty, it is difficult to leave clear shoe prints,” Zhao Ying said. As an old criminal cop, she also has some understanding of identifying footprints.

"You're right, I thought so at first," Han Bin replied, and the conversation changed.

“From the start, I asked Zhao Ming to take a side view of the outside wall of the ground with a drone. The outside wall turned out to be very clean and no signs of climbing were found.”

Zheng Kaixuan has rich experience and sees the problem of "climbing" right away.

“It's also based on this clue, and I guess the suspect didn't climb into the room by climbing,” Han Bin said confidently.

A policewoman from team member Wei Zimo had doubts: "If he didn't enter the room through the window, then why was the glass in each house opened or destroyed."

“It may mislead the police and investigate the wrong clues. As long as we follow the escalation clues, we won't find it,” Zheng Kaixuan analyzed.

"And the aerial video?" Zhao Ying asked.

"Right here," Han Bin handed a tablet to Zhao Ying, who was aside.

Zhao Ying took a closer look and sighed: "There is indeed no sign of escalation. It seems that the suspect did not enter the room through a window."

Seeing Han Bin showing his face, the three buddies, Li Hui, Zhao ming, and Tian Li regressed a lot. Without Zhang Ping, the three lacked confidence. Coupled with the short time for the establishment of the second group, whether it was the number of crimes solved or the detection rate, it was deleted by the first group before, and this situation did not change until Han Bin joining the second group.

“Captain Zheng, the surveillance and investigation teams, found no trace of the suspect. Based on previous judgments, the suspect may not have left the community or was a 'Spiderman'."

Li Hui coughed lightly and knocked while the iron was hot, "The possibility of a spider-man can now be ruled out. So, I guess the suspect may be hiding in the community or one of the residents of the community."

“I interviewed a person with a history of theft today. He now lives in Linfang community,” Zhao Ying said.

"What's up?"

"Drop it." Zhao Ying sighed and explained, “His name is Chen Kangning, he is 176 tall and weighs around 190 kg. Due to the direction of the investigation at the time, which is based on a suspect who should have entered the room through the window, suspicion around him was therefore temporarily removed. "

“The law enforcement recorder's transcription video,” Zheng Kaixuan said.

"Yes, Captain." Wei Zimo got up and left the meeting room, and it didn't take long for him to come back, holding a USB drive in his hand. He plugged the key into the computer and threw it onto a screen. In the video, there was the transcript of Chen Kangning.

The video showed a fat man sitting on a chair, and he seems to feel the chair is a bit small and twists under the weight of his body.

"Name, sex, age, hometown..."

"Chen Kangning, male, 29 years old..."

“Chen Kangning, you are called today. Is there anything you have that can help us with the investigation?"

"What's up?"

“There was a robbery in the Linfang community, do you know?”

"I haven't heard of it, when did it happen?"

"Just yesterday morning,"

"Policeman, what are you expecting from me to call me?" Chen Kangning looked calm.

"We want to know where you are from 11 a.m. on August 11 until 5 a.m. on August 12?"

"Are you suspicious of me?"

"It's just a routine transcription."

“I admit I made mistakes before, but I didn't do them anymore. I am now a legal citizen and have a legitimate industry,” Chen Kangning showed his indignation.

"Don't get upset, we're just doing a transcript, not an interrogation," Wei Zimo comforted him.

"If something is wrong, you will investigate me and not turn me on. I just want to be a normal person. Is it that hard?" Chen Kangning clenched his fists and showed an injured expression.

Chen Kangning's remarks somewhat moved many police officers. Especially Zhao Ming, Tian Li, etc., all the young policemen looked a little ugly.

Zhao Ying has a firm gaze. Judging by the traces of the on-scene investigation, this series of cases is certainly the work of veterans. Investigating people with a history of theft is the right direction of the investigation. When she was a criminal police officer, she was ready to give those convicted of crimes a chance, and she was also ready to try to believe them. However, after many years of experience in the police have proven the possibility of criminals committing crimes again is much higher than that of ordinary people.

For a criminal policeman, the reason is more important than perception. If you want to fight crime, you have to be more rational, to better protect the safety of people.
