xom Xu carefully picked up the dominoes with gloved hands, picked up a magnifying glass and observed them carefully: due to their texture, dominoes can often leave very clear fingerprints. 【Read the latest chapter】
Under a magnifying glass, he found that the fingerprints on the dominoes were very clear. He nodded with satisfaction.
Permission to open the cabinet. He took out his forensic toolbox - it was not brought by him from the old time and space, but made by Lingao himself.
Fingerprints could be extracted using transparent tape in the old time and space, but in this time and space, you have to use some extra thinking. Xu took out a small bottle of toner and gently brushed it on the dominoes.
Fingerprints appear clearly on the dominoes. There are three fingerprints worth extracting. From his toolbox he removed a small piece of glass wrapped in tissue paper that was manufactured to special specifications, similar to the slides used in microscopes. He carefully opened the package, making sure that the glass piece was clean and free of dirt, and then took out a little viscose liquid from a small bottle: the basic raw materials are beeswax and rosin, which can ensure transparency while maintaining viscosity. He used a cotton swab to spread the glass as evenly as possible. Then he used the piece of glass to carefully stick the fingerprints on the domino and pasted it on a piece of white cardboard.
In this way, he quickly extracted three fingerprints. Although the fingerprints were all incomplete, they were enough to provide comparison.
There were fingerprints attached to the autopsy report, and he compared them one by one with a magnifying glass. Soon there was a new discovery.
One of the three fingerprints does not belong to the deceased!
This discovery is very exciting for Xu. The fingerprints of another person on the domino are probably left by the murderer's accomplice!
Dr. Zhong kept watching, and finally showed a happy expression, knowing that there was a breakthrough in the case. Asked: "How is it? Is there any progress?"
"We may have gotten the suspect's fingerprints." Quan Li was very excited, "This way we can accurately find the murderer!"
Zhong Lishi played the dominoes with great interest. He remembered that Zhong Xiaoying would sometimes play Pai Gow alone at night when he had nothing to do. Since he knew how to play, he might be able to figure out some other tricks. He immediately suggested calling Zhong Xiaoying to bring this physical evidence.
Permission was absolutely necessary - although he felt it was pointless. But it was inconvenient to brush Dr. Zhong’s face. Immediately, someone was called to fetch Zhong Xiaoying.
Zhong Xiaoying put on her gloves, carefully touched the domino, and said to Xu Xu: "This is a gambling card..."
Isn’t it nonsense to think about permission? Zhong Xiaoying asked what he was thinking. Then he added: "I mean, this is the card that gamblers use."
Xu Xu nodded and asked: "Do you have anything to say about this kind of card? For example, what secret code does it represent?"
Zhong Xiaoying said: "If they use the value of this card as a secret code, I won't know. But -" she took the card, looked carefully, and said to Xu Xu: "This card is used by gamblers to cheat." Yes, they often forge casino cards to cheat people." She
"You, there is a mark on this card..."
"mark?"
"The people in the casino are certainly not stupid. In order to prevent others from cheating, they all put some kind of mark on their cards. The cards appear to be exactly the same, but in fact they are different from each other. But smart gamblers often don't even mark the cards. It can also be imitated, so in fact this method can only prevent beginners..."
Soon. Zhong Xiaoying pointed to a corner of the card and said to Xu Xu: "These gaps are man-made. There must be a casino with the same gap on the card. This person must be a frequent visitor to this casino..."
Xu Xu took out a magnifying glass and looked carefully. Sure enough, there were a few tiny scratches on the corner of the card. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to notice it at all.
"It's really yours." Xu Xu praised, "If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have known there was such a trick in it."
"Uncle, you are overly praised." Zhong Xiaoying said modestly, "There are many casinos. Just knowing that it is a casino and where it is is of no use."
"At least there's one more clue." Quan Quan didn't take it seriously, "I didn't expect you know a lot!"
Zhong Xiaoying smiled bitterly: "My eldest brother is a gambling addict - if not for this, he might not have declined so quickly..." She said with a very lonely look.
After sending Dr. Zhong and his daughter away, Xu thought again and again and decided to conduct a comprehensive screening of all migrant fishermen and sailors stranded in Kaohsiung and compare their fingerprints one by one.
He informed Mingqiu and Wei Bachi of his plan. Of course Mingqiu wanted him to "act cheaply". As for Wei Bachi, the association even enthusiastically expressed its "full support".
"Don't worry, I will fully cooperate with you on this matter." Wei Bachi looked distressed. "What happened in Kaohsiung shows that we did not do our job well and failed to live up to the trust of the Senate. I am very sad." He said with a sad expression.
That night, he went to the customs construction site in person and talked very cordially with Dr. Zhong about the customs bell tower and the customs building.
The Ministry of Science and Technology discussed the construction work of other projects in Kaohsiung for more than an hour, fully expressing their admiration for Dr. Zhong, and of course not forgetting to praise Zhong Xiaoying for her "wisdom and courage".
Early the next morning, Xu Xu led a large group of soldiers with guns and ammunition into the dock. This is the entire base service company.
The pier is the same as the commercial street. From the time of the incident, it was completely sealed off and no one was allowed to enter or leave. Wei Bachi mobilized a large number of North Korean security forces to guard the area and controlled all entrances and exits. Those who have landed must stay in the inn, and those who have not landed must stay on the boat. They are not allowed to move around at will.
"Hurry up! The first platoon goes over there! The second platoon blocks the intersection! Hurry!" Following the order of permission, the soldiers of the service company quickly controlled the key points of the dock. They were surrounded like iron barrels. People who were already frightened were frightened and overwhelmed by this scene.
A naturalized citizen climbed onto a pile of cargo, grabbed a metal microphone and shouted to the people on the fishing boat: "Don't panic! Don't panic! We are ordered to investigate the case and will not endanger everyone's personal safety. Please land immediately, Then we lined up in 2o queues in order and underwent inspection..."
He repeated these words repeatedly, and the security forces followed the pre-announced orders and started to direct the crowd to land and line up with big sticks. The people on the dock began to do as he asked. After a while, 20 long lines gradually formed. The soldiers followed the permission's instructions and began to search the people on the dock one by one. At the same time, let everyone leave the fingerprint of the same finger as the fingerprint.
Suspected people were pulled out from time to time to prepare for the next step of screening. People waiting for the search couldn't help but feel worried. Although no one dared to speak, the sense of depression in the air reached its peak.
The search lasted all morning, and more than 200 people were searched and evidence collected, and more than a dozen suspects were detained.
Allow someone to interrogate the suspect first and compare the fingerprints yourself.
Comparing fingerprints is boring and inaccurate. Before there was an automatic computer fingerprint comparison system, the probability of finding a criminal based on fingerprints was very small - even if the criminal had left a fingerprint record, it would be difficult for fingerprint comparison personnel to find a matching person from the vast sea of file cards. Therefore, in the past, fingerprint comparison was mostly used to identify criminals.
Fortunately, the number of people involved in the investigation was limited, and there was only one fingerprint to compare. Even so, comparing fingerprints is a tedious task.
The hard work paid off, and when he compared the 111th person, he found matching fingerprints.
"That's him!" Quan Quan shouted, and he immediately said to the policeman on call: "Arrest him immediately! Send him to the police station!"
"He has been arrested..." the police said.
"What?"
"He carries a set of Pai Gow dominoes in his carry-on luggage - you have taken care that anyone with Pai Gow dominoes and hollow bamboo tubes like flutes on them will be detained for screening."
"That's great." Xu Xu thought that this time he had more merits. "Send him immediately!" He remembered something and added, "Arrest the other people on his boat as well."
"Yes, sir. What about the other suspects?"
"Send it too." Quan Li decided not to let go of any suspicious clues.
Wei Bachi was discussing the progress of the investigation with Zhong Lishi at the police station when he suddenly heard several shouts from outside. Two policemen tied up one person and pushed him to Nanhai's office.
Wei Bachi asked: "Has the person been found?"
"That's right." Quan Quan was very excited. This breakthrough had been grasped, and the case was solved just around the corner. "There are still about a dozen suspects, so we have to spend some time to interrogate them all!"
But those whose fingerprints match must be the key objects. He asked that the person be sent to the interrogation room immediately to prepare for personal interrogation.
Wei Bachi and Zhong Lishi hoped to participate in the interrogation in order to show that they would also contribute to this. Xuancheng had no choice but to agree.
"I have also learned interrogation techniques and can help you with the interrogation first." Wei Balchi was very enthusiastic.
"Okay. You first ask about his basic personal information and the origin of the dominoes he carries with him."
Li Liang still has a lot of things to deal with, especially the fact that he first needs to conduct an investigation on the people on the fishing boat where the suspect is on so that he can grasp the person's background information and then start the key interrogation. He knew that Wei Bachi was well-read and he was quite knowledgeable.
Wei Bachi asked someone to pour a glass of water for the suspect, and then said to the man in a friendly manner: "Don't be afraid, our Song Dynasty is a legal society, and we will not do anything to you. I have something to ask you, please answer us truthfully ..." Wei Bachi briefly asked about the person's name and occupation. I found out that this person’s name was Li Shun, a native of Fujian. He's a guy who works odd jobs on a fishing boat. When asked about the origin of the cards in detail, Li Shundun refused to talk about the cards and refused to tell the true origins of the cards. He only said that he used them for entertainment.
