fog city detective

"Impossible." Liang Xi said, "He has countless women, but I only have one."

Karin asked with a smile: "What if there are many girls who like you?"

Liang Xi said: "No need to assume, there are indeed girls who like me. I said that I only have one, and I only like one. No woman in the world can compare with you. No matter how beautiful or outstanding they are, they are not my favorite." the one."

Karin was so beautiful in her heart: "Stop the car, I want to kiss you."

Liang Xi said: "After the kiss, bite me by the way. I'm a detective, do you think I don't understand? Hmph!"

Karin gritted her teeth: "You have to stop."

Liang Xi: "You will forget after a while, and you won't bite so hard if you bite again."

Karin smiled and leaned to the side to look at Liang Xi, full of tenderness: "Miss me?"

Liang Xi replied: "I'd better step aside."

The car pulled over and before the kiss came, the phone came first.Bluetooth is automatically transferred to the car stereo, and the ringtone is particularly three-dimensional.Karin didn't care, grabbed the back of Liang Xi's head and pulled it in front of her for two bites first.

"Your brother." Liang Xi hurriedly said.

Karin made a hush gesture like a thief and nodded.

Liang Xi answered the phone: "Hi, Baker."

Baker had no idea that Karin was returning to China, and said, "Liang Xi, there is a tricky murder case here that needs your help."

"Me?" Liang Xi said, "Isn't it good to be directly involved in the case?"

Baker said: "The suspect contacted the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs agreed to the suspect's request. Please intervene in a coordinated investigation."

Liang Xi asked, "Who is the suspect?"

Baker said, "One-eyed dragon."

"Fuck." Liang Xi asked in surprise, "Who is the dead?"

Baker said: "The core member of the Barle family: Munda. The matter is very important. Come here quickly. I will explain the basic situation to you on the phone."

Liang Xi looked at Karin sadly, what the fuck!I arranged a whole set of programs by myself, from eating, playing, getting bored... You tell me to come here now?

Karin comforted and kissed Liang Xi on the cheek, and Liang Xi said helplessly, "Okay, I'll go there as soon as possible." Who made Baker a brother-in-law?

……

At 5:[-] last night, a couple in love couldn't bear to go home. They walked hand in hand along the Changhu Lake in Kender Park. They found someone lying on the sand by the lake. They went up to check and found that it was the deceased Munda.After investigation, the police determined that the time of Munda's death was around [-] o'clock, with an error of no more than [-] minutes.The cause of death was gunshot, shooting Munda in the left side of the head at close range.Based on the comprehensive autopsy report, considering that Munda did not make any resistance, had no defensive injuries, had a relatively wide view of the scene, and Munda himself had certain combat qualities, the Criminal Investigation Department believed that it was not so much murder as execution.Forced Munda to be unable to resist with a gun, and then shot and killed Munda.

A cigarette butt was found at the scene, echoing the traces left by the smoke out of Munda's shoes.The Criminal Investigation Department speculates that the murderer gave Munda time to smoke.The two knew each other and talked for some time.

According to the ballistic identification results of the technical department, the bullet that killed Munda was fired from Cyclops' officially registered gun, and a muffler was used.The head of the Criminal Investigation Department immediately contacted the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and under the supervision of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, conducted another appraisal of the bullet, confirming that the first result was correct.The Ministry of Internal Affairs visited Cyclops at [-] o'clock this morning, confiscated Cyclops' guns, and took Cyclops into custody.At ten o'clock in the morning, the judge approved the search warrant, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs conducted a comprehensive investigation of all the real estate and personal property of Cyclops.

At [-]:[-] in the morning, Cyclops filed an application for Liang Xi to intervene in the investigation. The Ministry of Internal Affairs cooperated with Liang Xi once. In view of Cyclops' identity, after the Ministry of Internal Affairs sought the consent of the prosecutor, Baker contacted Liang Xi.The two action groups and administrative personnel directly under Cyclops are all under house arrest in a hotel, and the blade takes over all the work of the anti-terrorism office.

This is equivalent to the suspension of the entire Office of Counter-Terrorism.

After Baker finished introducing the situation, Liang Xi began to ask, "Where was Cyclops last night?"

Baker said: "Kender Park. The camera captured his car parked in the west parking lot of Kende Park, about 400 meters away from the crime scene. Only the main road in the park is monitored. It is not clear where Cyclops is going. Eleven o'clock At fifteen minutes, Cyclops returned to the car, lit a cigarette in the car, and drove away after smoking."

Baker added: "The cigarettes were of the same brand as the butts of the cigarettes at the crime scene."

Liang Xi said: "The evidence will be transferred. Has there been any smoke reaction in Cyclops' car?" Clothes and so on are easier for professionals to deal with.

Baker replied: "Not found, and it cannot be ruled out that he paid special attention to the smoke reaction when killing people."

Liang Xi said: "It doesn't make sense. Since the one-eyed dragon kills so carefully, how can he be caught by the camera? If he really kills, he will be so amateur? Kill with his own gun, without digging up the bullet, and without disposing of the body , and was caught by the camera. It’s a bit unbelievable. What’s even more unbelievable is, if Cyclops didn’t kill anyone, how could his gun be taken away by the murderer? How could it be returned to Cyclops?”

Baker said: "We will have the first interrogation of Cyclops in 10 minutes."

Liang Xi said: "I don't need to watch the video. I won't go to the criminal investigation department. I'll go directly to Kendall Park to see the real situation."

Liang Xi hung up the phone, a little distressed, but Karin didn't ask, nor changed the subject, because she knew Liang Xi was thinking.Liang Xisi has a problem with thinking, she can talk to herself, or talk to people unintentionally, she just needs to play this role well.

Liang Xidao: "Cyclops is rough on the outside and thin on the inside. He uses a hooligan to disguise himself, but he has a clever and exquisite heart. This case is very difficult to handle. No matter whether I find evidence that is beneficial to Cyclops or not, I will doubt it. The authenticity of the evidence. Cyclops had an objective reason to kill Munda, although I don’t know the specific content. Cyclops wanted to kill Munda openly, and he was sure that the law could not punish him? Perhaps Cyclops’ enemies deliberately framed him. Whether it is Either possibility means that the truth seen by the eyes of this case may not be the truth."

Karin asked, "Why did Cyclops kill Munda openly?"

Liang Xi said: "There is a cemetery to the west of Kent Park. I don't know the location of the crime scene, but based on my knowledge of Kent Park, the crime scene is not far from the cemetery. Cyclops and Mengda's grievances stem from them In an official cooperative operation, Munda's wrong news led to many deaths. The French survey results believe that although Munda provided wrong information, Munda does not have the subjective idea of ​​killing people. Cyclops does not care about subjective and objective and French reports, He has put the blood debt on Munda's head."

Liang Xi said: "If Cyclops is the murderer, he will use my hand to get rid of the crime. He has arranged everything and is waiting for me to enter the scene. Dealing with these old fritters, you will never know what is trustworthy and what is not. .”

Karin said: "Yes." She knew that Liang Xi was not talking to her, but to herself.

Liang Xi said to himself: "Or? Will it be more complicated?"

……

This case does not lie in the complexity of the case, but in the complexity of the people involved.The name of the agent sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs who cooperated with Liang Xi was also named Robert, and he asked Liang Xi to call him Ronaldinho.Ronaldinho is in his thirties, a former criminal detective. Because he couldn't overcome his psychological aversion to the horrific scene, he finally entered the Ministry of Internal Affairs through the assessment. He has considerable knowledge and experience in criminal investigation.

The two views coincided with each other. After understanding the background of the case, Ronaldinho believed that there were nothing more than two possibilities in this case.One may be that Cyclops killed Munda, and the other may be that others planted Cyclops to kill Munda.As far as Cyclops is concerned, whether it is framed or not, the evidence in this case is highly doubtful.

Liang Xi and Ronaldinho met in the west of Kent Park, and Liang Xi introduced Karin.After talking for a while, Karin drove Liang Xi's car back to the hotel apartment.Ronaldinho praised Karin's beauty and thoughtfulness sincerely, and the two arrived at the parking lot in the west of the park on foot.

As soon as he arrived at the parking lot, Liang Xi discovered the problem: "This is a rotating camera." The camera that automatically moves back and forth will inevitably leave a time dead spot during shooting.

Ronaldinho said: "This brings more doubts. When Cyclops' car was parked, did anyone enter his car?"

Liang Xi said, "Do you think Cyclops left his pistol in the car? Someone stole the gun and killed someone before putting it back?"

Ronaldinho asked: "Isn't it reasonable?" As an agent of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Ronaldinho's position is to protect Cyclops, while Liang Xi's position is to question Cyclops. Opposite tendencies can better find the truth through questioning and debate.

Liang Xi disagreed: "The operation is very difficult, with very strict time and action steps, and there is almost no error tolerance rate. The above conditions must be met: [-]: Cyclops arrives at the west parking lot. [-]: The framer can quickly open the car Car door. Three: Cyclops puts the pistol in the car. Four: After the framer got the pistol, he arrived at the scene of the crime faster than Cyclops and killed Munda. Five: After the framer killed someone, he returned to the parking lot faster than Cyclops. Six : Clean up everything, so that Cyclops, who was born as an agent, did not find out that his pistol had been used. Seven: Do everything without being noticed by Cyclops."

Liang Xi said: "So I think this is impossible."

Ronaldinho nodded after thinking: "What do you think?"

Liang Xidao: "As detectives, we have very few resources, and we prefer a simple and rough approach. My point of view is similar to yours. Either kill or frame up for murder. Although the scale of this case has tilted so far that the one-eyed dragon kills, it is only tilted. There is no such thing as yet. Decisive evidence. I think if it was a one-eyed dragon who killed the man, there may be evidence that the one-eyed dragon did not kill. If it is a framed murder, there may be evidence that the one-eyed dragon killed the man.” It is also possible that the framer can get the evidence of the one-eyed dragon’s murder. Call it a framer.

What Liang Xi said was hard to understand, but Xiao Luo understood it completely and agreed very much: "Yes. But what if the murderer predicted our prediction?"

Liang Xi laughed: "We think that the murderer predicted our prediction. You may ask, what should we do if the murderer predicted us and the murderer predicted our prediction?"

Ronaldinho laughed: "I was thinking too much. I suggest walking to the scene of the crime and taking this route."

Chapter 333 The One-Eyed Case ([-])

There is a 70-centimeter asphalt road along the lake to the crime scene. The right side of the asphalt road is grassland, and the left side is also grassland. The grassland on the left is about three meters wide, and then there is a 45-degree slope grassland, with the lakeside below.The lake is dominated by sand and stones, and a row of street lamps is located on the grass on the left, which can also provide lighting for the lake at night.

Liang Xi experimented. With his height of about 1.8 meters, he couldn't see the edge of the lake when he was walking on the asphalt road, and he could barely see the edge of the lake.There is a concrete step leading to the lake every 100 meters, and there are warning signs on the lake.

With Xiao Luo at the bottom and Liang Xi at the top, the two walked to the scene of the crime to meet up.The scene has been dealt with, but the cordon has not been removed. A patrolman is in charge of guarding the cordon nearby. It is estimated that an evacuation order will be received soon.

Xiao Luo said: "It is impossible for the framer to arrive at the scene of the crime faster than Cyclops, chat with the deceased, and light a cigarette. Even if a muffler is used, it is impossible for Cyclops not to notice it on a quiet night when Cyclops is nearby."

Liang Xi agreed and put forward a new hypothesis: "Unless Cyclops is not going to the scene of the crime."

Ronaldinho looked at a roadside coffee stand in the distance, and said, "The video of the interrogation is almost here. Have a cup of coffee?"

……

walk!When Cyclops answered the interrogator, he told the interrogator that he was in a bad mood yesterday, so he went for a walk in Kent Park.He left the pistol in the car, why did he leave it in the car?Cyclops replied that he was used to walking easily without a gun.Asked the one-eyed walking route, and the one-eyed replied that there is no route, just walk around at will.

Along the lake?Maybe, maybe not.

Were any guns found to have been used?No.

Is there a typo about your feud with Munda?No.

When did you learn about Munda's death?When you were looking for me today.

What time did you get home last night?Arrive home around twelve o'clock.

Your wife said you didn't go back to the bedroom right away, but had a few whiskeys in the living room?Yes.

Why?Having a bad mood?Yes, that's why I went for a walk.

Liang Xi and Xiao Luo sat on the grass and watched the interrogation, Liang Xi said: "It's very casual, he doesn't worry at all, it's just prevarication."

Ronaldinho agreed and put forward his own opinion: "If it was murder, why would Cyclops be in a bad mood and drink a drink alone in the living room after returning home? He should be very happy."

Liang Xidao: "I'm even more surprised why One Eye doesn't tell the truth, can't he tell the truth? If the purpose of his visit to the park yesterday was not to kill Mengda, then he must be doing another invisible thing."

Ronaldinho interface: "The framer knows this information, so he finds a way to take advantage of it."

Liang Xidao: "Let's look at this case from the perspective of framing. Why did the framer take the risk of using a gun with one eye? Is the purpose of the framer to kill Mengda, or to frame Cyclopia? If it is just to kill Mengda, there is no need to add to the snake. , the addition is not an ordinary foot."

Xiao Luo said: "Maybe, maybe not only to kill Mengda, but also to plant Cyclops."

Liang Xi said: "From your explanation, Mengda and Cyclops belong to the same camp. Their enemies killed Mengda, planted Cyclops, and disintegrated their camp."

Liang Xi asked: "Suppose it is one-eyed murder? Why don't you believe that one-eyed murder?"

Xiao Luo explained: "Because the one-eyed killing method is too clumsy. His hands, feet, head, and branches picked up by the roadside can be used as murder weapons. Why does he have to use his own gun to kill people? I will analyze the muffler and search for it. No suppressor was found, and the one-eyed official gun is not equipped with a suppressor. With a suppressor, it means that one-eyed premeditated murder, and his mind is broken? Use his own gun to premeditate murder? If one-eyed is a passion to kill? How can he bring a suppressor?"

Liang Xidao: "I always feel that the cost of framing is too high, the risk is too great, and there are many uncontrollable factors. The premise of framing is to make an appointment with Cyclops alone. And let Cyclops leave the pistol in the car. Who has such a great charm? What? Why couldn't One Eye tell the interrogator the truth?"

Ronaldinho asked: "What do you think?"

Liang Xi said: "From the perspective of criminal behavior and costs and benefits, I think the truth is that One Eye killed Munda."

Ronaldinho was a little excited: "I asked a lot of questions just now, how can I explain it? Why did you use your own gun to kill Munda with one eye? It doesn't make any sense at all."

Liang Xi said: "I'm even more surprised that one-eyed murderer, why did you invite me to investigate the case?"

Ronaldinho waved his hands: "So I was right. Because One Eye was framed, that's why he asked you, whom he trusted, to cooperate in the investigation."

Liang Xi said: "But I think killing Mengda is one-eyed."

Ronaldinho was speechless and spread his hands, as long as you are happy.

……

On the way to the criminal investigation department, House called and told Liang Xi that the camera filming Yingluck's funeral had been recovered, and confirmed that no one had discovered and noticed the existence of the camera.They looked at the screen for a while, and the clarity and angle of the screen were all in line with expectations. Liang Xi asked House to keep the video memory first, and contact House when he was free.

It's the peak season recently, one thing after another.wrong?It seems that there is no income, only expenses.

When he was about to arrive at the criminal investigation department, Liang Xi received a call from Xueyue. The steward of Xueyue told Liang Xi that there was a luxury house for sale by the Thames River near Berning Street, five kilometers away from the hospital, with a total area of ​​more than 600 square meters and a construction area of ​​220 square meters. square meters, three floors.The butler explained that if Liang Xi needed it, he could buy this mansion for about 400 million pounds.The housekeeper suggested that Liang Xi go to see the house within a week.This villa is specially reserved for Liang Xi to consider for a week. If Liang Xi doesn't like it, the villa will be sold to the outside world.The market price is about 500 million, and there are many competitors, and there are many people who are willing to pay an extra 200 million to buy this house.

After Liang Xi hung up the phone, the driver Xiao Luo asked, "Do detectives make so much money?" The content of the conversation was in units of millions of pounds.

Liang Xi explained: "It's mainly an opportunity. See if there is a chance to find someone who likes to brag like me. If there is, the daily chat starts with hundreds of millions."

Ronaldinho laughed and the two arrived at the Criminal Investigation Department of South London.

Since the birth of the criminal police profession, the criminal police has always been recognized as the police with the strongest comprehensive ability.They are persistent, professional, and have a heart to pursue the truth under their ruthless appearance. Many aspiring police officers also dream of becoming plainclothes criminal police officers.But in the past ten years, with the development of science and technology and the overwhelming appearance of cameras, criminal police are no longer paid as much attention as before.Many outstanding criminal police talents have been mobilized to work on the Internet and anti-fraud.

After all, it is the hometown of Sherlock Holmes, and many people who are engaged in criminal police work have a heart for Holmes.At least in London, the criminal police team still retains a lot of talents.These talents are no longer obsessed with the traditional case-handling mode, showing more case-handling styles.

For example, the profiling of the interrogation mentality contacted by Liang Xi.The interrogation strategy of criminal police in the early years, controlled the atmosphere and interrogation process through language and tone.In addition to formulating interrogation strategies, interrogation now also formulates interrogation questions.Meaningful questions and meaningless questions are interspersed left and right, and through video playback and psychological profiling, a guess without evidence is made about the interrogated.

The criminal police team is in a meeting, playing the interrogation video while a criminal policeman explains.He discovered an important point from the interrogation: Cyclops already knew about Munda's death before he was taken into custody.

As a detective, Liang Xi agreed with him, and took a more radical view.According to the one-eyed wife, after one-eyed came home last night, she drank a few glasses of wine alone in the living room.The fact that the wife can say this shows that Cyclops doesn't do this when she goes home every day.There are many possibilities, and detective resources are limited, so they will directly establish the possibility of the greatest suspicion, and then verify this possibility through investigation and reasoning.

After the criminal police explanation came to an end, Baker introduced Liang Xi to his colleagues, as well as Ronaldinho from the Ministry of the Interior, who were all co-investigators of the case.The so-called co-investigators of the case do not need to report the progress of the investigation to the criminal police, but they can be informed of the progress of the investigation by the criminal police.Their job is to investigate cases from a personal perspective.

Because of Baker, many detectives had heard of Liang Xi, and the team leader asked Liang Xi to speak.Of course, it is not for Liang Xi to condole and praise everyone. Everyone's time is precious, and there is no need to waste other people's time because of your own politeness. Looking at it, it is difficult to explain the assumption that the one-eyed pistol was stolen and the gunman arrived at the scene to kill the murderer first. I am conservative, not saying that I think one-eyed is the murderer, I think that one-eyed has something to hide from everyone.”

Liang Xi said: "As a detective, my focus may be different from everyone else's. What I focus on is why Cyclops asked me to cooperate with the investigation? Until now, I have always believed that Cyclops is the murderer, and I have not found any unexpected surprises." Lawyer, no one can see One-Eyed in private now.

A young criminal policeman asked: "Is the whole thing suspicious?"

Liang Xi replied, "Yes."

Liang Xi raised a few points. He was very careful, and the participants were all experienced criminal police officers. He was a little nervous.The first doubt is the muffler proposed by Ronaldinho.One-eyed shot Munda with his own hand, which means there was no premeditation, but why did he carry a muffler?Assuming One Eye had premeditated, why would he use his own pistol?Second point, if Cyclops is not the murderer, why did he appear in the parking lot less than 500 meters away from the crime scene?If One Eye was the murderer, why did he stay in the parking lot and smoke a cigarette before leaving?

The third point: If One Eye is not the murderer, why didn't he answer the interrogator's question positively during the interrogation.If One Eye is the murderer, why didn't he explain the various questions raised by his appearance in the park last night during the interrogation?

The fourth point: The relationship between the murderer and the deceased Munda is very strange. Killing Munda shows that the murderer does not like Munda, but Munda has time to smoke. According to Munda’s resume, he may complete the reaction in just one cigarette. kill.Why would someone who hates Munda give Munda crap time for a cigarette?

This point is based on the question raised by Munda that there are no cigarettes and lighters on him. This cigarette is probably given by the murderer.Munda quit smoking for many years.

The team leader said: "Hey, we are here to clarify your doubts, not to ask you to ask more difficult questions."

Everyone laughs together.The team leader was of course joking. The four questions raised by Liang Xi are the core content of this case and the main doubts in the investigation so far.

Baker cheered for his friend: "Liang Xi is very good at analyzing answers from doubts."

Liang Xi looked at Baker: "When did I become good at this?" I didn't even know.

A criminal policeman raised his hand, stood up and said, "There is also an off-site factor on my side. I noticed that Cyclops has a lot of connections, Dao Feng, and MI6 have his friends. For example, Yisha from Dao Feng and Cyclops have worked together in MI6 for at least more than Ten years. I just asked a few colleagues. When Blade took over the work of the Anti-Terrorism Office, no one asked about the progress of the case. Maybe they are very disciplined, or there may be other reasons.”

The team leader asked: "Do you think the case has something to do with Cyclops' work?"

The detective nodded.
