"Mr. Kindaichi, why do you say that?"
Yan Kai asked Kindaichi.
Kindaichi pondered for a moment, and then said to Yan Kai: "Classmate Yan Kai, you may think that the police are inefficient in handling cases and always let prisoners escape, so the police are incompetent, right?"
"Well……"
Yan Kai did not answer Kindian Yiyi's question. After all, he has always respected public officials who maintain social order, and the education that Central Plains people received from childhood is to call the police when encountering difficulties. The police are always the guardians of the people.
But honestly speaking, based on his observations during more than a year in Japan, the performance of the Japanese police is really...
Okay, that's it for now. It would be disrespectful to say any more. Besides, they are making improvements now, so we can't dissuade them from their enthusiasm.
Even if Yan Kai didn't speak, Kindian Yiyi could guess what Yan Kai was thinking.
"Hey, the world only sees those famous detectives who solve cases like gods and make the police look mediocre and incompetent, but they don't know that the police's case-handling model is the most applicable."
Kindaichi sighed.
"Investigating the scene, looking for clues, investigating the interpersonal relationships of the deceased, and questioning the people involved in the case... Detectives cannot do these complicated tasks, but without anyone to carry out these tasks, even the most powerful detectives cannot be proud. After all, they It’s impossible to solve a case in front of a cloud of air, or even find the suspect. Without the credibility of the police, you may not even be able to see the suspect’s face!”
Kindaichi sneered.
He was always able to successfully solve cases in the past, and the great contribution he made to his old friend, Uncle Swordsman, who was a policeman, was responsible for maintaining the scene and conducting investigations no matter what happened. However, I heard that the current detective dared to block the scene by himself. Regarding other people’s personal freedom, I really don’t know how to write the word “criminal law”.
Oh, by the way, most of the people who are now working as detectives are minors, so there are indeed no taboos.
Well, he was still underage when he started working as a detective, and he didn't dare to be so promiscuous after he came out of society.
Kindaichi's words made Yan Kai couldn't help but want to laugh.
This man was obviously a detective before, but why does he seem to be so disapproving of detectives?
"Then why do the police always solve the case faster than the detectives?"
Yan Kai asked Kindaichi.
"..." Kindaichi showed a helpless expression, "Because the police have a complete process for solving cases. Every policeman must follow this process and deduce the results step by step. Before the results come out, the police will not suspect anyone. , or in other words, equally suspicious of everyone. Only in this way can we be rigorous enough to avoid unjust, false and wrongful convictions to the greatest extent. But the problem is that the process of solving the case will be very long, and once any process node goes wrong, the case will be The investigation may reach a dead end, and all previous work will have to be redone, which shows that the police investigation efficiency is very low."
"But detectives have no such restrictions. They can skip steps. Many times, detectives identify the murderer first and then find evidence to prove it. The police cannot do this. This kind of preconceptions to determine the murderer is strictly prohibited among the police. !”
"I see!"
Yan Kai nodded.
Taking problem solving as an analogy, when the police handle a case, they are honest students who review the problem honestly and then solve the problem step by step according to the conditions listed in the problem according to the method taught by the teacher.
The detective, on the other hand, first estimates an answer after briefly looking at the different questions, and then solves the problem according to the answer. If the answer is correct, the process of inferring from the answer will naturally become very simple, and even if there are any mistakes in the process of inferring, there will be no mistakes. Problem, anyway, detectives only need to find the murderer when investigating a case, and there is no need to record the process. That is the job of the police.
As for saying the answer is wrong...
Thinking of this, Yan Kai couldn't help but think of the policewoman Nanatsuki Koshimizu whom he met in Shizuoka Prefecture before. She was once a detective, but later became a police officer. The reason was that one of her friends was once identified as a murderer by a detective. Even if the detective There is no direct evidence to prove that she is the murderer, but because the detective said it, she was still regarded as the murderer by the people around her, and she almost committed suicide due to excessive pressure.
Although Koshimi Nanatsuki's friend was later rescued and the truth of the case was revealed, Koshimi Nanatsuki could not let go of the matter, so she chose to give up her favorite detective career and become a police officer, because she understood that If the detective's investigative power is not restricted, it may lead to dire consequences. Although the police have many restrictions when investigating cases, they can avoid some mistakes to the greatest extent.
Of course, the various mechanisms of the police system have been operating for many years, and some people have long figured out the tricks. It is not unheard of for prisoners to use the police investigation mechanism to hinder case investigations.
This was the case in the "300 million yen robbery incident" that caused a sensation. The criminal left a total of 120 items such as crime tools at the scene. According to the police's case handling procedures, these 120 items must be investigated one by one. In the end, after spending a lot of police force, it was discovered that these leftovers were either stolen items or mass-produced and sold items. Not only did they not play any role in the progress of solving the case, but they also wasted the prime time to solve the case. Still at large.
Akechi's father was responsible for investigating the case back then, but even Akechi's father, limited by the police investigation system, failed when faced with the "300 million yen robbery incident" and became his A lifetime of regrets.
It can only be said that both detectives and police officers have their own advantages and limitations in the process of solving crimes. Detectives seek speed while police officers seek stability.
Yan Kai thought for a while and then asked Kindaichi: "So, Mr. Kindaichi, what you are saying is that the police did not wrongfully accuse Tsubokura?"
"I didn't say that." Kinda shook his head, "I just heard what Machiko Dai's lawyer said and felt that Tsubokura was a bigger suspect. I haven't even been to the crime scene, so how can I casually judge a murder case?" What’s the truth!”
Yan Kai nodded and understood what Kinda Yiyi meant, which was that he was not responsible at all for his speech. No matter what Yan Kai thought after listening to his words, it had nothing to do with him at all. The blame was thrown away.
"But I believe that the police must have conducted a detailed investigation before arresting Tsubokura. According to Tsubokura, the manager of the car wash shop often takes his employees to have pot parties at home after work, and he often helps the manager. , and his fingerprints were also left on the kitchen knife that was the murder weapon at that time. But the problem is that the order of the fingerprints can be detected. If the fingerprints left on the murder weapon belong to Tsubokura from the former store manager and then from the latter, The police will never arrest him as a suspect, so there is only one possibility, that is, the fingerprint detected by the police is that of the store manager in front of Pingcang and behind, or even Pingcang's fingerprint is the latest fingerprint, and At the time of the incident, Tsubokura had no alibi, so only in this way could he be arrested as an important suspect."
Kindaichi explained to Yan Kai.
"In that case, why didn't you explain it to Miss Dai just now?" Yan Kai asked.
"Because this is just an inference based on common sense, but legally, we cannot rule out the possibility that the store manager never used the kitchen knife again after the hot pot party, so the fingerprints on the murder weapon are not ironclad evidence and can easily be removed in court. , even if Tsubokura has no alibi, according to the legal principle of 'beyond suspicion', it is still difficult for the police to charge Tsubokura."
"It is precisely because of this that the police officer in charge of the case chose a bad move - to use violence to interrogate Tsubokura!"
Kindaichi couldn't help but sigh when he said this.
"This is actually a trick used by many veteran police officers. For some prisoners who have just committed crimes, their psychological defenses are at their most vulnerable. As long as some... methods are used, it is easy to get them from their mouths. Something you want.”
Kindaichi was deliberately vague when speaking some words, but Yan Kai could still understand the meaning.
"This was a method used by many policemen in the past, but now, the police pay attention to civilized law enforcement. Of course, this...method cannot be used. Even pork chop rice can no longer be given to prisoners because it will Suspected of eliciting confessions."
Kindaichi smiled bitterly.
"Of course, there are also some veteran police officers who have not changed their old habits and feel that it is too weak to treat prisoners in this way. They still use some... well, do you understand what I mean during interrogation?"
Kinda looked at Yan Kai one by one.
"Understood, understood."
Yan Kai nodded.
"Well, although I know that the uncle was trying to solve the case, his behavior made the matter more difficult. If someone can prove that he used violence to interrogate the suspect, then the credibility of other evidence provided by the police will also be After being questioned, the suspect might be acquitted in the end!"
Kindaichi scratched his head and said.
When Machiko Dai was talking about the case just now, she specifically explained that the policeman responsible for interrogating Tsubokura was a very vicious old policeman and how he was violent to Tsubokura.
"So, as long as it is proven that the police used violence during the interrogation of Tingkura, Miss Dai can overturn the case?"
Yan Kai said to Kindaichi.
"Theoretically this is true, but in practice it is very difficult." Kindaichi shook his head and said, "You can't underestimate an old policeman's connections in the police station. No policeman would stand up for him at this time. Cang was talking to Lawyer Dai, so I think her efforts were in vain.”
Kindaichi shrugged.
"But I feel that Miss Dai is not a person who gives up so easily."
Yan Kai spreads his hands.
"Ha, even so, what does it have to do with me? I'm just an ordinary office worker now. I'm not interested in cases or lawyers!"
Kindaichi started to mess up again.
But the development of things is indeed as Yan Kai said, developing in an uncontrollable direction.
That morning, Shiha Kasumigaoka, who woke up just after midnight, was eating a cold breakfast while flipping through the newspaper. The front page of the newspaper was the news that the original verdict of the "Tsubokura Case" had been overturned and sent back to the Tokyo District Court for retrial.
Kasumigaoka Shiyu ate his breakfast in several bites, and then ran to Yan Kai's room excitedly with the newspaper: "Junior, junior!"
"What's the matter?"
Yan Kai looked at Kasumigaoka Shiyu helplessly.
"I...ahem!"
The consequences of being too anxious to eat breakfast just now showed up. Kasumigaoka Shiyu choked, holding the newspaper with one hand and covering her throat with the other, looking very painful.
Yan Kai raised his forehead and asked, "Is Senior Sister Xindao giving up her aloof approach and preparing to develop in the direction of "harmonious angle"?
But he couldn't let Kasumigaoka Shiyu feel so uncomfortable, so he walked up to her and patted her on the back. Kasumigaoka Shiyu immediately regained his breath.
"Thank you, junior!"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu took a deep breath, then opened the newspaper in front of Yan Kai to read.
Yan Kai saw the front page of the newspaper at a glance, and then frowned.
"She actually succeeded in what she said..."
Yan Kai murmured.
"Junior, is this the case you told me about before?"
Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu asked Yan Kaidao.
I had a long chat with him at Kindaichi's house a few days ago. Regarding the case of Machiko Dai, Yan Kai also talked to Kasumigaoka Shiu. Kasumigaoka Shiu actually thought the case was quite interesting, so he wrote it down, and it turned out that I saw the follow-up to this case in the newspaper this morning, so of course I brought it to Yan Kai to read.
"This is the case."
Yan Kai took the newspaper and read it carefully.
In the newspaper, Tsubokura, the suspect, was described as a kind and honest young man who was deeply loved by the people around him. The old policeman who was responsible for interrogating Tsubokura naturally became a bad guy and was nicknamed "violent detective" and "violent detective". Nicknames like "Gangster Detective" and the "Tsubokura Assistance Association" formed voluntarily by human rights organizations are cheering for Tsubokura...
"It's only been a few days, but there's actually an assistance meeting?"
Yan Kai's brows furrowed even more.
"Well, human rights organizations, that's it. As long as you have a reason, they can give you ten or eight tricks in the blink of an eye. They just rely on this to gain attention and make a living!"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu took back the newspaper and said.
Anyway, as a Japanese who always pays attention to the news, Kasumigaoka Shiyu has long been accustomed to this kind of thing. If Yan Kai hadn't mentioned this case to her, she wouldn't have bothered to pay attention.
"How about it, junior? The court date is tomorrow. Can we go and observe it?"
Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu asked Yan Kaidao.
Yan Kai pondered for a moment, and then said to Kasumigaoka Shiyu, "Okay, but just go in and listen. I'll wait for you outside."
"Ah, why?"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu was stunned for a moment.
Yan smiled but said nothing.
If he went to the auditorium and saw Tsubokura, with Yan Kai's ability, he could easily judge whether he was the murderer based on his performance in court, but if that was the case, it would be boring.
The next day, Yan Kai and Kasumigaoka Shiu came outside the court together, and happened to meet Dai Machiko and the man in the hat they met on the tram before.
"Hey, why are you two together?"
Yan Kai looked at the two of them curiously.
Machiko Dai was a little embarrassed when Yan Kai saw her with the man wearing the hat, and said rather shyly: "This is lawyer Gumenmei, the lawyer I hired to defend Tsubokura."
Yan Kai was stunned for a moment. He had always thought that the case would be retried and Machiko Dai was Tsubokura's defense lawyer.
"Hello, interesting young man!"
Komemon Kensuke brushed his three-quarter hair and smiled at Yan.
"Hello, Lawyer Gumenmei." Yan Kai also greeted Gumeimen Yansuke, and then showed an unexpected expression, "I'm curious, how did you two... get together?"
Don't these two people dislike each other?
"I don't want to be with this stupid woman, but for the sake of 30 million yen, I can only aggrieve myself!"
Komemon Kensuke said with a smile.
A simple lawsuit can get 30 million yen. He definitely has a reason to smile so happily.
"Thirty million yen... That Tsubokura doesn't have much money. How could he get 30 million yen?"
Yan Kai was a little surprised.
If Tsubokura had 30 million yen, would he still need to work at a car wash?
"This money was not paid by Pingcang, but by me on behalf of Pingcang."
Dai Machiko said to Yan Kai.
"I can't tell. It turns out that Miss Dai is from a wealthy family."
Just take out the 30 million yen, which is amazing!
"No, my family doesn't have much money. I borrowed the 30 million from the bank after mortgaging the land in my hometown."
Machiko Dai shook her head.
"..."
What a filial daughter you are!
Yan Kai looked at Dai Machiko in shock.
