Timeline Supervisory Board

The pen and paper prepared just now came in handy. After Hua Xin wrote and drew on it, she showed it to several people.

On the white A4 printing paper, there is a solid line and a dotted line that write the time.

Hua Xin said: "Li Shixiang and his wife were hijacked and jumped to the past time. At that time, the correct time display was 02:05, and Li Yuexi on the correct timeline was still near the alley." Write down the time on the first line and draw a solid line.

Then he touched the time on the second line and the dotted line below, and said: "Li Shixiang jumped home, the time should be between [-]:[-] and [-]:[-], because Li Yuexi was not at home during this time period." .If he was at home, he would be blocked by criminals at home, so the ending would be different."

When his pen touched the first line and the second line successively, everyone present noticed that there was only one symbol "?" in the third line.

Hua Xin put down the hand holding the paper, as if a part of foreshadowing and explanation was needed between the second and third paragraphs.Hua Xin said: "Li Yuexi remembers that Li Shixiang and his wife died once because he saw it with his own eyes. He saw it when he died, and he saw it after he came back to life. This is evidence-based. On the night of the 920 case, He experienced two things, one, seeing his parents murder, and two, seeing someone take away the body. If the timeline between ten o'clock and two o'clock is modified, his memory will definitely stay in place, It’s the realization that things have changed.”

After finishing speaking, Hua Xin raised the paper with his hand and tapped the pen tip on the "?" on the third line. At the same time, he looked at Li Yuexi and asked seriously, "Either you lied, or there is another reason."

Li Yuexi's focus was not on the so-called "another reason". He straightened his back, looked directly into Hua Xin's eyes, and said, "I'm not lying."

is that so?Hua Xin maintains a neutral attitude. Without clear evidence to support it, he will not easily draw a conclusion on a certain possibility.

However, Wen Xu was sure that Li Yuexi was not lying, he grabbed Hua Xin's arm.The latter turned to look at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I think it's another possibility." Wen Xu said, "The killing time of Li Shixiang and his wife in the alley was around [-]:[-] in the morning. After the jump time, if they were killed before [-]:[-], the Li Shixiang and his wife It would be impossible to kill people in alleys, and we would not see Li Shixiang with blood on his clothes. Therefore, Yuexi did not lie. Those people did change the time axis, but during the changed time, Li Yuexi was doing What? He was riding a bicycle, driving home from the bearing factory, and that was the only thing he could remember. Moreover, because he was extremely nervous and flustered, he had no clear concept of time."

In other words: the modification time of the other party is only one to two hours.

"Xiao Wen's analysis is still very reasonable." Minister Pan said thoughtfully, then raised his eyes to look at Li Yuexi, "But don't be too confident."

"What do you mean?" Li Yuexi asked puzzled.

Minister Pan pursed his lips and said in a long tone: "Our memory is easily tampered with. Misinformation is everywhere in the world. Memory is like a page on Kiwipedia. You can log in to edit it, and others can too. It can be done. When someone or an event gives you wrong information about what you have experienced, your memory can be completely destroyed, scrambled, or even altered. We cannot distinguish false memories from real memories , we need independent corroboration."

"My memory has been tampered with?" Li Yuexi seemed unable to accept this assumption, and her expressionless face was full of surprise.

Minister Pan asked slowly: "Are you sure that the parents murdered because you saw the whole process with your own eyes, which is a direct visual memory. And you confirmed that the person died because you saw someone test the victim's carotid artery and snort? , which belongs to indirect visual memory."

The more Wen Xu listened, the more he felt that something was wrong, so he opened his mouth and said, "You mean, that person is probably not dead? The person who tested the carotid artery and breath made two fake moves in front of Li Yuexi?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out."

"No, it's impossible." Wen Xu immediately refuted Minister Pan's analysis, "First of all, unless those people know that Li Yuexi is hiding nearby, they will use fake actions to mislead him. But if they know that he is there, why? Why don't you arrest people directly?"

Hua Xin nodded, and squinted at Minister Pan: "Fatty, how do you explain it?"

Minister Pan smiled wryly: "I'm a technician, not an investigator. I'll analyze all the possibilities for you from my professional perspective, and it's your task to rule out the impossible possibilities."

"Be quiet both of you." The vice president finally spoke.Although Hua Xin and Minister Pan who had been named had a lot to say, they had to be obedient in front of him, and neither of them said a word.

The vice president calmed down the two generals with one word, and threw the hot potato to Du Zhongbo: "Officer Du, what do you think?"

Du Zhongbo thought for a moment before opening his mouth: "I think it doesn't matter whether Li Yuexi's memory has been tampered with or not, what matters is the result. According to what you said, Li Shixiang and his wife died within nine to 10 minutes after the jump time. The timeline The traces of physical evidence and traces left by the murderer have been erased. As a policeman, under such conditions, I have no way to arrest people. Even if I know who the murderer is, I can’t arrest them. Amendment. Now, we have no way to achieve our goals, don't you think this is serious?"

The vice-chairman didn't express his opinion, and threw the topic to Hua Xin: "What about you?"

"Different standpoints lead to different analysis angles. He may not care about some details, because these details are a bit sci-fi to him, and they are useless for him to catch the murderer. But we are different, we must figure out every link , this not only involves the issue of those lost instruments, but also the issue of who the murderer who forced Zhao Wei to death is."

The vice president's eyes shifted and he locked on Minister Pan.Before he could ask, Minister Pan said with interest: "I have two questions here. First, did the other party land directly at Li Shixiang's house after jumping time? Second, if there is no case, there is no point in time. What are they based on?" Can you jump back?"

"I can answer Minister Pan's first question." Wen Xu also knew that it was his turn to be next, so he preemptively said, "The possibility of those people falling directly at Li Shixiang's house is at least [-]%, because the boss and I brought them back. A driving recorder, there is no image of four men holding Li Shixiang and his wife home in the recorder, which is enough to explain the problem."

Minister Pan's eyebrows twitched when he heard this. As the head of the Technical Department of the Supervisory Committee, it was hard for him to believe the answer given by Wen Xu.

The "system effect" of the timeline, although very large, is not very precise.It can only place the time-jumping natural person near the crime scene, but it will never accurately place the natural person within the scope of the crime scene.

At this time, Hua Xin said: "This is what I am most anxious about. The other party must have mastered a technology that the supervisory board does not have, and can let the time-jumping person land wherever he wants."

As a result, Minister Pan's face turned pale again.

Hua Xin seemed worried that Minister Pan would not be scared to death, and continued, "Maybe they have mastered the second technology, even if there is no case, they can jump time as they like."

Minister Pan stood up abruptly, his pale face seemed to have been painted with white paint, which was a little frightening.He walked quickly towards the vice president, and said stammeringly, "Vice, vice president, can we talk alone?"

The vice president is still a calm vice president. After taking a special look at Hua Xin, he walked to the door first.Minister Pan hurriedly followed.

Wen Xu turned her head to watch them leave the ward, and turned to look at her boss.

Hua Xin didn't care that the vice president and Minister Pan had a single chat about this matter. He gave Wen Xu an inexplicable look, which probably meant, don't worry about them, we have enough troubles.

Wen Xu gave Hua Xin a blank look in her heart, and thought: Of course I'm not going to eavesdrop, I just want you to explain to the other two.Everyone would feel uncomfortable if they suddenly left after chatting well.

Of course, Hua Xin didn't have to explain, because he had no obligation to act as a so-called commentator, and besides, the crooked Du Zhongbo didn't seem to have any intention of explaining.

It has been less than an hour since Hua Xin and others entered the door. Du Zhongbo, who had just undergone surgery, was mentally exhausted, his thinking was slow, and he felt dizzy, as if he had smelled drowsiness, and his upper and lower eyelids began to fight .

Wen Xu was about to say, that's all for today, you should have a good rest.But his boss said: "Don't sleep, there are still things to do."

Li Yuexi cast a disgusted look at Hua Xin in a rare way.

Du Zhongbo smiled wryly and said, "Why are you in such a rush?"

"You don't want to solve the case sooner?"

"To put it lightly, the timeline wiped out all traces of the murderer, how can I solve the case?"

Hua Xin suddenly smiled. Although he looked very handsome, it gave people a sense of shock that this guy was going to do something bad.

"You have a solution?" Du Zhongbo sensed something from his smirk, and his drowsiness subsided instantly, as if the wound didn't hurt anymore.

Hua Xin said: "Although there are no traces of the murderer, you still have a clue."

He called the clues "a" instead of "tie", which made Du Zhongbo suddenly realize!

Once, there was a fool who deliberately exposed himself to the hostages, challenged Captain Du's authority very arrogantly, and actively defected to the arms of the police station.

It is simply a clever plan specially prepared for them to enter the maze!

Li Yuexi, who was on the side, became excited when she heard the word "Qian Wendong", and made sure to make sure: "Is that the one who kidnapped the child?"

Hua Xin nodded.

"Can you bring him here?" Li Yuexi asked, "I really want to meet him."

"Oh yes, he also has a birthmark." I don't know whether Hua Xin told Li Yuexi that Qian Wendong had a birthmark on purpose or not.

Unexpectedly, Li Yuexi didn't react at all, and said calmly: "It's not surprising, they are in the same group."

"Your parents too." When speaking, Hua Xin's voice sounded a bit cold.

Wen Xu had already lowered her head, as if observing whether the ground was wiped clean or not.The boss made a trick, and he couldn't stop it, and he couldn't help it either.Anyway, if the other party is Li Yuexi, he should just keep silent.

Li Yuexi was originally a very sensitive person, and Hua Xin suspected that she was lying several times and naturally realized it, but this sentence affirmed that her parents were also members of criminal gangs. annoyed.

However, the boy is still very sensible.

"Brother Hua..."

"Call me brother when you get to know each other well."

Li Yuexi frowned and pursed her lips, her face flushed red from embarrassment.

What a shame!

Wen Xu couldn't see it anymore, so she had to come out to smooth things over and said, "Well, he didn't mean anything."

"You never believed me, did you?" With Wen Xu smoothing things over, Li Yuexi not only didn't go downhill, but hit a straight ball to Hua Xin.

How will he answer?

Wen Xu probably knows what the boss is thinking, but Li Yuexi doesn't know, and neither does Du Zhongbo.This seems to be a question of anger, and Du Zhongbo was also involved.

If Hua Xin persisted in not trusting Li Yuexi, Du Zhongbo, who was so perceptive, would naturally think seriously—is Li Yuexi really trustworthy?

When Hua Xin faced Li Yuexi's questioning, it was like looking at a primary school student and saying, "Teacher, my stomach hurts so much, I want to go home".

"It's superfluous." Hua Xin shrugged and said lazily, "You don't have to care whether I believe you or not, because I don't care whether you lied or not. To me, you are the person involved, and the Supervisory Committee My attitude towards you is my attitude, and it does not involve personal opinions. If you really want to hear some personal opinions from me, I can only say...for his sake, I will take good care of you. "

The "he" in Hua Xin's mouth refers to Du Zhongbo.

Du Zhongbo smiled weakly: "I still have such a big face?"

Hua Xin thought to herself - you have to pay back your face, I'm afraid you won't be able to pay it back.
