Jin Jiaxuan 2: Poem of Silence

Jin Xu felt extremely flattered, and the god who he regarded as a professional idol personally named him and asked him to take charge of the work in front of him. This inevitably made him a little proud and a little unbelievable. Look at Shang Yang, look at it again Yuan Ding looked at Shang Yang at last, and asked suspiciously: "It's not that you two are partnering to deceive me, right?"

Yuan Ding still didn't understand the previous situation, just when he was about to explain, Shang Yang said indifferently: "Yes, it was us who lied to you in partnership, Yuan Ding and I were responsible for the case being solved, if it is not solved, I will let you take the blame, you Do you still do it?"

Instead, Jin Xu believed it, laughed, and said, "Do it, it will allow me to get over the addiction of being a leader. This job is fine, and if I don't do it, I won't do it for nothing."

Shang Yang let out a sound from his nose: "Huh."

Yuan Ding scratched his head and said, "Senior brothers, why don't you let me meet with my local colleagues as well."

The two senior brothers took him in, and met Captain Tian Rong who was directly in charge of the investigation of the case. After greeting him, Tian Rong asked his staff to invite a deputy director and the captain of the criminal investigation detachment to come over.

Regarding this case of floating corpses, the local city bureau set up a task force, the deputy bureau was the chief of the task force, the detachment leader who coordinated and assigned tasks, and Captain Tian who directly did the investigation work were two deputies.

Now it is equivalent to a meeting between the special case group and the supervision group. Originally, the special case group should report the current investigation situation to the supervision group, and then discuss the next step.

But the situation of the supervisory team is special. Except for Commissioner Yuan Ding who just arrived, the other two supervisory team members' understanding of the details of the case is not much different from that of the special case team. The detachment leader in charge of coordinating knew more and more details.

The detachment leader had dinner with Shang Yang and Jin Xu, and had some contact with each other. At that time, the impression of each other was quite good. He didn't care too much about the embarrassment, and smiled heartily: "Not bad! It's also saved. Director Shang's report time."

The other local police officers also echoed with a smile, and turned their eyes to Shang Yang. They clearly regarded the higher-ranking Shang Yang as the backbone of the supervision team. Everyone was waiting for him to solve the case and give a speech. .

"Sorry, I'm a soy sauce worker," Shang Yang said with a smile to everyone, "This is Superintendent Jin, and he is currently in charge of the work of the supervisory team."

Everyone nodded suddenly. The detachment leader and Tian Rong had different expressions. Shang Yang took Jin Xu here for a week of investigation. It's really hidden, but when it's exposed, it reveals a big one.

"I won't say much else, don't waste time." Inspector Jin said in a flat tone, as if he didn't feel like a counterattack protagonist in a cool article at this time, "The conclusion of the forensic doctor is that the time of death of the deceased It was six o'clock last night at the earliest, and now it is four o'clock in the afternoon, and it will be 24 hours soon. We still can't even confirm the scene of the first crime. Isn't this progress too slow?"

Everyone: "..."

Shang Yang said: "We understand that the workload is heavy, and we understand the hard work of all colleagues, but the progress has to be rushed."

The detachment leader motioned to Tian Rong, and Tian Rong said, "All the video content captured by the nine 360 ​​cameras by the lake from six o'clock last night to when the floating corpse was found this morning is almost finished, and it will take an hour at most."

Jin Xu said: "Yes."

"The comparison between the diatom plants collected by the technical investigation from wild waters around the city and the diatoms inhaled by the deceased has just been completed." Tian Rong paused and said regretfully, "It's a pity that none of them match. "

Everyone who knew the facts of the case frowned. This comparison means that the first scene has the characteristics of being more hidden and less crowded, and it is even more difficult to find.

Yuan Ding, who was in the audience, had just quickly browsed through the case information, and asked, "Apart from being related to Qiu Li's suicide, the deceased had no other social grievances, right?"

"No." Tian Rong said, "This boy just graduated, his social relationship is very simple, and he didn't have any grudges with anyone in school. After investigation, it is basically confirmed that only Qiu Li's suicide may have caused him to be killed. Of course, it cannot be completely ruled out. It's an indiscriminate crime."

If no definite suspect can be found, the direction of the investigation can only be adjusted towards indiscriminate crime. The murderer improvised and killed an ordinary programmer of an Internet company without premeditation.

But Jin Xu was sure that this was the wrong direction: "There was no scar on the body of the deceased, and almost no trace was left when the body was thrown after death. This is not an indiscriminate crime, but a well-planned crime."

Shang Yang asked Tian Rong: "Where did the deceased go after leaving home yesterday, is there any definite conclusion?"

Tian Rong said: "After the deceased went out, his mobile phone may have run out of battery, and he did not find a specific trajectory after checking the location. His last electronic transaction was at a convenience store about 700 meters away from the lake."

Yuan Ding said: "The phone is out of battery, so it's inconvenient to go anywhere. He shouldn't be able to go too far."

"It's hard to judge," Shang Yang recalled based on the information he had heard, "The criminal police went to the deceased's girlfriend for questioning, and she said that the deceased loved sports and often ran at night for more than ten kilometers. Otaku. His phone is out of battery and he can't call a car, so he might go somewhere on foot."

After he finished speaking, he was afraid that he might remember wrongly, so he looked through the case files in front of everyone. The girlfriend of the deceased had indeed said this.

In the data, the boy's personal information is relatively complete. Judging from the ratio of height to weight, he has a relatively strong physique. It is not easy to start with such a young and middle-aged man and then carry the corpse.This once again strengthened Shang Yang's thinking that the murderer should also be a relatively strong person.

Everyone lost their minds, Yuan Ding continued to read the documents carefully, Tian Rong was absorbed in thinking about the case, and the detachment leader and deputy director exchanged opinions in a low voice.

Shang Yang noticed that Jin Xu beside him was also flipping through the documents, and he was turning to the pages of the interview notes of the deceased’s girlfriend, which was roughly the content that Captain Tian Rong and Police Officer Xiao Chen had reported before. Looked, found nothing.

"Did the deceased go to the temple on foot?" Jin Xu asked suddenly, "From the convenience store where the deceased scans the QR code to buy drinks, to the most famous temple in your locality, it is at most six or seven kilometers."

Shang Yang was taken aback, a few kilometers away from the lake was a thousand-year-old temple, which was only slightly less famous than the lake. Eight out of ten tourists from other places would stop by to visit the temple when they came to see the lake. The temple is one of the scenic spots in the scenic area named after the lake.But Shang Yang was a little puzzled, why did Jin Xu suddenly feel that the deceased had gone to a temple?The deceased was a local, not a foreign tourist.

Tian Rong and the detachment leader were stunned for a moment, but they quickly understood their expressions and agreed with Jin Xu's speculation.

"That's right," the detachment leader said, "After Qiu Li's incident, he might indeed go to the temple to worship. Everyone said that this temple is very spiritual. If we locals want to ask for something, we will go to worship it on purpose. .”

Shang Yang does not believe in ghosts and gods, and ancient temples with thousands of years are attractions for him, but for those who believe in them, temples have a great function of praying to gods and worshiping Buddha.After Qiu Li jumped off the building and died, the deceased felt uneasy, and it is possible that he wanted to seek peace of mind in the temple.

"Suppose he went to the temple on foot," Yuan Ding asked, "but his phone is out of battery, how can he buy tickets? Even if he brings cash, he can buy tickets, but without a health code, can he go in?"

Shang Yang laughed and said, "You worry quite comprehensively."

But Jin Xu asked the detachment leader and Tian Rong seriously: "Is it possible? Can I enter the temple without swiping the health code on my mobile phone?"

"I don't know, I haven't been there for several years." Tian Rong said.

"Yes," said the fifty-year-old deputy director who hadn't spoken, "As long as you have a citizen card, our citizen card is a combination of card and code. The citizen card can be bound to a health code, and the temple annual card can also be bound to a health code." Go in, don’t worry if your phone runs out of battery, as long as he has a citizen card.”

Shang Yang: "...the temple still has an annual card?"

"It's very popular in our local area to pay respects, and many people will apply for annual cards." The detachment leader said, "Tian Rong, have you checked the swiping records of the deceased's citizen card?"

Without saying a word, Tian Rong immediately got up and went to the side to make a phone call, ordering someone to investigate.

"It is generally unexpected that young people will use physical citizen cards," the detachment leader didn't expect that he hadn't checked this matter, and explained a little embarrassedly, "I also carry my citizen card with me, and I haven't taken it out for a long time. Used it."

Just as Jin Xu was about to say something, Shang Yang was afraid that his words would be impolite, so he rushed to speak first: "Understood, smartphones are so convenient, and the police will inevitably form a fixed mindset."

Tian Rong quickly hung up the phone and came over to tell everyone the result solemnly: "The deceased's citizen card was swiped at the entrance gate of the temple yesterday afternoon."

Everyone was stunned, and involuntarily turned their gazes to Jin Xu.

"Then what are you waiting for?" Jin Xu snapped the folder shut and said, "Let's go to the temple to have a look."

The detachment leader and the deputy bureau did not participate in the investigation work, and helped them transfer two police cars, one with seven seats, carrying Tian Rong, three criminal policemen, and two technical investigators, and the three members of the supervision team drove another car. An ordinary four-seater car slowly followed Tian Rong's car.

Yuan Ding was driving the car, and the two senior brothers sat in the back seat. Everyone knew each other very well, and they didn't pay attention to the details of etiquette.

"Senior brother Jin is still very good," Yuan Ding said, "If you do any calculations, you can guess that the deceased will go to the temple to worship gods. No wonder my master will take a fancy to you."

Jin Xu didn't answer this sentence, but his expression was a little embarrassed, and there was also a little joy of being inspired.

"How did you think of this?" Shang Yang still didn't understand why Jin Xu suddenly thought that the deceased might have gone to a temple.

"His girlfriend said it." Jin Xu said, "It said that after Qiu Li's death, he couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, frightened himself, and kept having nightmares... If those words are seen by those who love to preach, they will know that the business is coming. It’s a good time for religious belief to play around.”

Shang Yang coughed: "Freedom of belief, be careful what you say."

Jin Xu squinted at him and said, "I'm the conductor, so be careful with what you say."

Shang Yang: "..."

Yuan Ding was driving the car in front, laughing loudly.

Shang Yang turned his head to look out the car window, stopped talking to them, and fully expressed his dissatisfaction with being deprived of his leadership position.

"Xiao Yuan, there is one more thing I didn't tell you." Jin Xu didn't seem to notice that he was dissatisfied. I used to be a detective..."

He put together the case of Qiu Ling investigated by Huang Jianping and his guess that the case of Qiu Ling might also be a murder case, and finally said: "There is something wrong with Huang Jianping, but I can't think of what it is for the time being."

"From what I hear, I feel that Section Chief Huang probably knows the truth about the associate professor's case." Yuan Ding has a strong ability to absorb information, and his brain turns quickly, and he immediately came to the same conclusion as Jin Xu.

"En." Jin Xu nodded, with some approval and understanding in his eyes, Yuan Ding had some talent to be chosen as an apprentice by the master of criminal investigation.

At this time, Shang Yang didn't care about pretending to be angry, and turned his head to listen to the two of them. He was afraid that he missed something, and interjected: "If the associate professor was really scared to death by human beings, and Huang Jianping found out about it, then he will help the murderer. What was the motive for the concealment?"

Jin Xu said: "This is the crux of the problem that I can't think of an answer."

Yuan Ding wondered wildly, "Is that associate professor related to the evil forces that made his daughter deaf?"

Shang Yang disagreed: "If the associate professor is or may be involved in gangsters, how could only Huang Jianping know about it?"

Yuan Ding said: "That's right, it shouldn't be like this."

Jin Xu thought about it again, but still couldn't come up with a result.Shang Yang reminded: "It's good for us to talk about it ourselves. Don't bring it up in front of the local police. The case has been closed for several years. It is inappropriate to search without evidence."

"Understood." Jin Xu agreed, then reacted, Xue Shangyang said in his usual tone, "Don't teach the leader how to do things."

Shang Yang said: "You are almost done."

Jin Xu also imitated his speech: "Comrade Xiaoshang, you should take this opportunity to learn from me how to be a good leader who is loved by his assistants..." Before he finished speaking, the leader of Xiaye gave the usurping assistant two iron fists.

All the way to the outside of the temple.It was getting late, the scenic spot was about to close, there were few tourists, and the arrival of the police car did not attract too much attention.

Colleagues from the police station in the scenic spot were notified to come over to assist with their work, and took them to the temple. After meeting with the person in charge, the technical investigators went to check the monitoring first, and the person in charge took a few people to investigate in the temple first.

The temple is full of incense, and surveillance cameras are installed everywhere. After looking around the main hall and several major scenic spots, I found nothing.

All the police officers stopped when they passed a stone pond formed by the accumulation of streams in the mountains.The surface of the water is hundreds of square meters. The water is not muddy but the bottom cannot be seen. The depth exceeds two meters by visual inspection.

In order to find the plant components that can match the diatoms in the body of the deceased, the technical detective collected several wild waters with sufficient depth in the city and the suburbs. No one thought that they would come to this thousand-year-old temple Collect a little sample in the pond.

It was already dark, with only a gleam of afterglow, and the cold wind in the mountains was more bleak and cold than the downtown area.

Jin Xu turned on the flashlight, squatted down on one knee, and carefully looked at the stone wall beside the pond on the bank. A layer of dark green moss grew near the water, and crawled under the water surface. The stone wall of the pond was very high. It should be that in the old days, for the convenience of water storage during the rainy season, the stone wall above the water surface was still more than one meter high from the shore.

The flashlight shone around and stopped on a piece of moss, where there were obvious flaws. The moss was injured, and the scars were like the marks of cats scratching on a brand-new cat scratcher. Dozens of long vertical lines mark.

It was more like someone fell into the water and wanted to climb up the stone wall, but because the moss was too slippery, he failed in the end, leaving traces of despair.

"Call the technical detective to take samples," Jin Xu stood up and said in a deep voice, "This is probably the first scene."
