Yang Lin smiled bitterly: "There's no time. In the case of Song Kun's murder a few days ago, all the people in our office were involved."
"After the case was solved, there was a backlog of things in those two weeks. I have been going back to the dormitory in the middle of the night these days."
"This case is not a big deal. Nothing valuable was burned, and no one was injured. The water company didn't press it, so we just let it go." Lu Chuan nodded. This is the current situation of the grassroots police station.
Few people, but many things to do. Neighborhood adjustment and trivial matters will tie up half of the people. Although Lu Chuan had never worked in the police station, he had heard Yang Lin say a lot about it.
Just last night, Yang Lin and others called the police seven times due to complaints about construction noise due to house renovations.
There is no way, a phone call comes every now and then, and the police must arrive within the specified time. In Haizhou City, the police are required to arrive at the scene within ten minutes after receiving the alarm.
Of course, different cities have different requirements. Lu Chuan heard that some sensitive areas require three minutes to arrive at the scene for disposal, and even one minute.
Picking up the blue paint bucket, Lu Chuan observed it repeatedly. The fact that no one checked is also a good thing from another perspective, because it means that no one has touched this bucket.
It is more likely that Lu Chuan will make another discovery. Soon, Lu Chuan discovered something that Yang Lin had not discovered.
The strength of the intermediate spot survey skills was fully demonstrated here. In addition to the fingerprints on the bottom of the blue barrel, Lu Chuan also found some stains on the inside of the handle.
Although no fingerprints remained, the stain was clearly not from the fire. Because there was a layer of smoked carbon black on it, after dipping a cotton swab in it, Lu Chuan was going to go back and do some analysis.
In addition, Lu Chuan collected some white substance from the bottom edge of the blue barrel, the bump touching the ground.
A powdery substance similar to flour or lime. These things were obviously not contaminated at the police station, but probably from the place where the paint bucket was previously placed.
Lu Chuan is collecting and analyzing physical evidence, and the action team is also working on it. On the one hand, it is a visit and investigation. There are residential areas and commercial streets near the archives, and the flow of people is relatively large, so there is a lot of surveillance.
Currently, most surveillance video data can be stored for three months. This arson occurred three weeks ago. If there is video surveillance that captures the other party, it should still be found.
Compared with the corpse dumping case, this simple arson case is much less difficult to detect. At noon the next day, significant progress was made in related work.
Conference room one. Ren Qiang turned on the projector: "This is a picture captured by the surveillance camera of an 8:30 supermarket next to the archives room three weeks ago." The time on the screen showed that it was 1:08 in the morning.
At the entrance of the supermarket, a short, fat man wearing a black down jacket carrying a blue paint bucket passed by the supermarket entrance.
Fifty minutes later, the man passed by the supermarket door again, but the blue paint bucket in his hand disappeared.
"The surveillance of the archives building that caught fire was in disrepair, and our investigators did not extract any valuable clues." Yang Lin and the others also checked the surveillance video at that time, but because of the disrepair, nothing was found.
"There are three supermarkets and a massage shop near the archives building, and surveillance cameras are installed at the entrances of these shops."
"Zhang Hui and the others discovered this video at an 8:30 supermarket 800 meters west of the archives room." Of the four stores, two are on the east side of the archives building and two are on the west side.
Nothing was found on the east side, and neither was the surveillance video of the massage parlor near the archives building on the west side.
"It seems that the suspect felt that this massage parlor was a bit close to the archives building, so he deliberately avoided the surveillance and did not walk on the sidewalk. In addition, due to the angle of surveillance, he was not photographed." Qin Yong nodded. This analysis is consistent with Generally logical.
However, the man in the video looks short and a little fat. This is inconsistent with the footprint analysis report that Lu Chuan made based on the footprints at the crime scene.
The murderer dumped the body for the first time. Based on the current investigation, it was initially determined that the murderer was over 1.8 meters tall.
The second time the body was dumped, the murderer's footprints were collected at the scene. Analysis determined that the murderer was 1.84 meters tall, weighed 100 kilograms, and was between thirty-five and forty years old.
But the man in the surveillance video is short, stocky, and only about 1.7 meters tall. The physical characteristics are very different from those of the suspect in the corpse dumping case.
However, now is not the time to think about this. Since the fingerprints found on the corpse's ankles matched the fingerprints found on the bottom of the blue paint bucket, this clue must be followed.
"Ren Qiang, send more manpower to find the arson suspect as soon as possible." With the surveillance footage confirming the appearance of the arson murderer, it becomes relatively easy to find the person.
At 3:30 in the afternoon, Ren Qiang brought back good news.
"Captain Qin, we've been caught!" Inquiry room. Zhang Hui is interrogating the suspect.
"Qin Jun, where were you in the early morning of December 6th?" Qin Jun, male, 46 years old, project manager of the Engineering Management Office of the Water Company.
"I... I can't remember clearly... I should be sleeping at home." Qin Jun's eyes dodge and his words stuttered. The meaning of the word guilty conscience was vividly expressed by him.
The interrogation room of the Haizhou City Criminal Investigation Detachment is approximately less than thirty square meters. The windows were blocked by heavy curtains, and a high-pitched spotlight shone on the tiger bench.
The interrogator sits opposite the person being questioned and has a simple desk. Next to the desk is a video recorder, and there is a surveillance camera on the corner of the ceiling.
Unlike the interrogation rooms of the wealthy Criminal Investigation Detachment, the interrogation room of the Haizhou Criminal Investigation Detachment does not have a single-sided glass observation port.
Qin Yong and others are now in the next room, watching the interrogation inside through the surveillance camera.
"Qin Jun!" Zhang Hui suddenly yelled, causing Qin Jun opposite to tremble in fright, and the handcuffs and shackles that restrained him rattled.
"Do you know what the crime of arson is?"
"Arson is one of the eight serious crimes. If arson does not cause serious consequences, he will be sentenced to not less than three years but not more than ten years!"
"Those who cause serious injury or death or cause heavy losses to public or private property shall be sentenced to more than ten years, life imprisonment or death!" When he heard that it was more than three years and less than ten years, Qin Jun's face was already sweating like rain.
When people heard about life imprisonment and death penalty, they had already collapsed from the tiger bench.
"Do you know what a major loss is? Fifty thousand yuan!"
"You know better than anyone else what's in your company's archives!"
"How much money have been lost? You can calculate it more clearly than me, right?"
"We have no evidence, so we will arrest you casually?"
"You still have a chance to confess now, but if you resist again..."
"I...I...I said...I told you everything!" A project manager usually only eats and drinks, and makes some small profits from the construction company. When has he ever seen such a battle?
Faced with Zhang Hui's few words, everything was lost.
"I set the fire, but I didn't set it alone. Our director asked me to do it!"
"I just obeyed his orders. Really, everything I said is true!"
"By the way, recording! I have a recording!" The details of the arson case were quickly figured out. The one who set the fire was the mole.
The Qin army was the arsonist, but it was indeed not the mastermind. Recently, the water company has to conduct an internal engineering audit, and there is too much mess in the engineering management office.
"Our director said that as long as all the files are destroyed and there is no evidence, they won't be able to find any problems."
"He...promised to promote me to deputy director afterwards, so I did it." Leniency for confession is like firing a bullet. Once you start, there is basically no stopping it.
It definitely needs to be fired with all the bullets to feel good, and some even need to be shaken at the end. Qin Jun kept the recording, the evidence was ready, and the arson case was solved.
"Okay, now that the case of arson has been explained clearly, let's talk about the case of corpse dumping in Qinghe Amusement Park." Huh?
Qin Jun's body that had just relaxed suddenly tensed up, and he looked at Zhang Hui screaming: "What... throw the body away?!"
