Tang Qian got the answer he wanted, but sighed.
"Officer Song, you may think I'm too suspicious. But it's not your time to explain why there is this thing on the wall?"
He pointed to a corner of the wall. Song Qiaoyu also looked over and saw the camera in the corner of the wall.
"This is not very correct..." Before he could finish his explanation, he was immediately interrupted by Tang Qian.
"This is the best hiding place chosen by Wei Gaochi. The cameras around it were all abandoned and the only ones left are in a half-dead state. This relatively new model is basically replaced by your last layout. If you don’t take her away for so long, do you want her to give birth or do charity?”
What he said was unceremonious, and it did make some sense.
"Also, I didn't see any other cameras that were originally installed along the way." Tang Qian added, "Don't tell me that you accidentally forgot to remove them."
Song Qiaoyu couldn't refute for a while, because he really didn't know about this matter.
As a reaction, he could only immediately think of the junior who was particularly interested in this aspect, so he made a call.
The call was connected within a second.
"Hi! How are you?" Lu Yao asked enthusiastically, "Brother Song, Brother Song, how are you doing there?"
"Classmate Tang asked me to explain why there are surveillance cameras at the conversation place." Hearing this, Song Qiaoyu also realized that something was wrong and said angrily, "What did you do to answer the phone so quickly?" He opened the phone by the way. A button placed outside to show that he is not an accomplice.
Lu Yao argued confidently: "If you don't believe me, you took down that camera. Let me tell you, there is no recording equipment on it, not a single one! It's just basic equipment to ensure safety. It's understandable."
This confirmed the fact that the young police officer had the mysterious lone camera.
"Then what did you do to get the call in the first place?" Before Tang Qian could ask, Song Qiaoyu decided to take a preemptive strike in order to clear up the relationship. He didn't want to take the blame for someone else.
Lu Yao looked at the items around him.
"I'm playing games. What's wrong with playing a video by the way?" She didn't feel guilty.
"Officer Lu, you are truly the most duplicitous person I have ever seen." Tang Qian lamented from the side, "On the surface, you don't seem to have any intentions, but why do you get involved everywhere?"
Lu Yao's tone was very coy, intending to fool him like this: "Oh, it's all a coincidence. But when it comes to duplicity, you didn't say a few words to our Captain Liang..."
At this time, Song Qiaoyu realized something was wrong: "Wait, weren't you in the office just now? I just went out and saw you sorting out information..."
"I have a great mission now." Lu Yao's voice suddenly became serious, "After careful consideration and many tests, this matter finally came to fruition today."
Song Qiaoyu believed it, but only half of it. Treating certain colleagues with suspicion is an extremely important quality. This is a skill that Song Qiaoyu has rarely mastered during this period.
Just in case, he also turned off the external music player.
"whats the matter?"
"Brother Shao likes to coax people, saying that what I did this time is also very beautiful, and let me think about what kind of reward I want. Originally, I didn't want to be treated as a kindergarten kid, but after thinking about it, I did have some needs. So I applied with Brother Shao, They said the WiFi in the office was fast and the environment was good, so I wanted to use this reward to take a half-day off, and by the way, I was specially allowed to play games in the office all night."
Her words were so powerful that Song Qiaoyu couldn't even tell whether she was serious or not.
But there is no doubt that Song Qiaoyu feels that his choice of turning off the outside play just now is not meaningless - at least it can prevent the strength of the entire third team from being reduced to the bottom by Lu Yao's words in front of outsiders.
"...How did he react?" Song Qiaoyu was also a little curious.
"Brother Shao said that he had never heard of such a strange request. But because I stated in advance that I would keep quiet and wear headphones, and the cost of this kind of reward is indeed very low, so I just let it go. "
This seems to make sense.
"Enough about the reasons, Brother Song, give the phone to that classmate Tang." Lu Yao said with a smile, "Although I did all that work before to start my half-day vacation early, it was also for other things. That camera... It certainly wasn’t my whim.”
As expected, what Tang Qian said was not too wrong.
Song Qiaoyu didn't ask any more questions and did as he was told.
"Classmate Tang. Although there are no definite witnesses to confirm my point of view, the answer I have given so far has a probability of about 97.67 to be correct, so you can trust my words. .”
"...Forty-two out of forty-three times, or eighty-four out of eighty-six times?"
Song Qiaoyu on the side was once again refreshed in her knowledge, and she immediately looked at the classmate Tang Qiantang who had an unchanging expression as if she were looking at a monster.
"No, because I included the number of brain teasers I did when I was a child." Lu Yao revealed the topic without mercy, "In short, I just want to tell you that this conclusion should be credible. . Because there is indeed no other trace of the protagonist appearing in this world, and it matches all the characteristics of the person you described."
Lu Yao's investigation obviously went through a long process, and he was actually well prepared. If she hadn't obtained the information from Qi Taichu, she might not have been able to identify the nearest target until now.
After all, there is no name, no identity, and even records do not exist in the files. It is almost like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"My investigation started with 'motivation'. Why couldn't that person's identity be recorded and filed? Why did Captain Song, whom I had never met, refuse to leave any records? In the end, I could only come up with a possible answer. , before that person left, he had done something that prevented his original identity from appearing on the public documents. If so, his original identity is either missing or dead, but the specific time of disappearance is unknown. If the target is If we set it nationwide, the base number is too large, but if we stick to this city, we are afraid of missing key information."
Whether in this city or this country, countless people disappear without a trace every day.
She paused and continued to give her answer: "So, after corroborating it with some records and the testimony of Qi Taichu who is still alive today, I can get more restrictions. For example, he is a person who is accustomed to using firearms but does not dare to The person who shot the gun; for another example, he is extremely skilled and has obviously been trained. I made the inference that his original identity is indeed in the police system, and he was related to Captain Song before he disappeared. A cooperative relationship was reached without reporting the identity.”
"Then I found someone."
He was a grassroots policeman who had just graduated from the police academy and had good grades. He was sent to a grassroots police station just to accumulate qualifications. The police academy where he worked had held several lectures, including one where Song Jing, as an active criminal police captain, was sent to give a lecture. And that person's name happened to be registered in the book that recorded the ticket issuance for that lecture.
Later, that person's information was cut off somewhere, and even the photo information disappeared without a trace, but he was labeled "missing". Lu Yao investigated another police station where that person last worked and discovered another old case.
Among the police officers at the same police station, a police officer who served at the same time died due to an accident. The cause of death was a gun discharge. This seemed to be just an ordinary accidental tragedy, but upon further investigation, Lu Yao discovered another contradiction.
Police officers who carry guns on duty also need a gun license. Lu Yao himself had spent a lot of time trying to get permission, so he was extremely concerned about this kind of thing. But after checking the information of the police officer who died due to fire, she discovered a problem - the police officer himself was not issued a gun license.
Police stations at the grassroots level do not necessarily need to be equipped with guns. This kind of thing is very normal. But it is really suspicious that this phenomenon occurs in a policeman who died due to an accidental fire.
Then, the subject of the investigation returned to the missing person. What is strange is that the records of the death events do not contain any photos or even written records except that the deceased died in a fire accident. It seems that they were deliberately erased. Lu Yao identified this matter as a disguise, and then further determined the direction of the investigation.
After that, things become even simpler.
According to the information about the firearms issued to the missing person, Lu Yao discovered that the gun used as the murder weapon disappeared without a trace in one of the records, and seemed to have left with the disappearance of the missing person. However, such a phenomenon rarely occurs in gun management. There must be someone obstructing it, but even a police officer of Song Jing's level cannot do it.
Therefore, an idea came to Lu Yao's mind: Could it be that the person who caused this gun to disappear from the file for no reason was the high-ranking insider who revealed the information? Since Song Jing was carrying out the mission with his permission, of course he had some needs.
Then, after comparing several bullet marks at the crime scene eleven years ago with the models of the guns left behind, it was finally proven that one of them was indeed consistent with the model of the long-ago police gun. Although it was impossible to find the firearm itself due to the explosion at the scene, the possibility gradually expanded with the verification process.
"That person was afraid of shooting and kept the gun in his hand. He said he was guilty and could maintain long-term and stable contact with Captain Song. It can even be seen that their relationship is not too bad... Captain Song is a person with a strong sense of justice. People, even if they have to cooperate with others for official duties, it is impossible to chat and laugh with people whom they do not approve of at all. You can ask the person next to you who is also named Song about this."
"Wait a minute," Tang Qian suddenly said, "How do you know he said he was guilty?"
As expected, I still can’t hide the matter of the diary. Tang Qian has always had a rigorous logic. He does not just take the information told by others directly into his mind, and has his own way of doing things.
"Did you get the information from the library that time?" Sure enough, he guessed the answer at once.
Lu Yao ignored him and continued: "In short, the greater possibility is that in the eyes of Captain Song, he is not the kind of evil person who commits heinous crimes. On the contrary, continuing to conceal his identity after he disappears is for the sake of Until the truth is revealed, protect the reputation of his original identity. After all, a person who breaks into the scene and causes an explosion will most likely be classified as the main responsible party if the case cannot be solved."
"After all that, who is he?"
Lu Yao suddenly fell silent again.
"So I said, actually telling you later may tell a more complete story." She seemed a little annoyed, "Well, I actually have a more complete guess, but it requires more witnesses. But I can tell you now. A name that may make you feel like a...poor person who is being manipulated."
Song Qiaoyu was more interested in this hypothesis, so he took a half step closer and listened.
"I think at least you really want to play with me." Tang Qian sighed.
