Chapter 269 Extreme Case Solving
Hearing the words "Pursuit Period", Deng Yaojun raised his head curiously and said, "Oh, it's true, the time limit will be up in five days."
He shook his head regretfully, "When I first joined the team, Team Gu also checked it out. However, the Qingquan Village where the crime occurred did not even have decent surveillance, and the person who came to report the crime was only an eight-year-old child. ”
"Almost twenty-eight now."
Deng Yaojun counted on his fingers.
"Qingquan Village, the same village as Gu Fei."
Jiang Yang suddenly spoke.
"Brother Yang, don't you think the two cases are related? That's impossible."
Speaking of business, Deng Yaojun simply leaned against Jiang Yang's table and said, "Nineteen years ago, Gu Fei was only a little old, not yet twenty, so he went to work in the city."
"He was not in the village at all when the crime occurred."
Jiang Yang was looking at a murder case that occurred in Qingquan Village nineteen years ago.
Qingquan Village is located in the countryside of Fu City, more than 40 kilometers away from the urban area. The roads are so rugged that even in today's technologically advanced days, bus lines are inaccessible.
After getting off the bus, it takes an hour to walk to the village.
The murderer used the same technique to kill seven people one after another. He cut off the head of the deceased with one knife. The wounds were not dull at all, which showed how strong his hand was.
Moreover, according to the forensic judgment, the death time of the seven deceased people was no more than two hours apart from each other, and they were definitely killed on the same day.
What’s interesting is that according to the villagers’ confessions, the deceased usually did not have a good relationship with him.
Either there is no loan relationship, or there is a love rival, or there is a dispute between the older generation of the family.
All in all, these seven people were not easy to get along with when they were alive, and they were famous gangsters in the village.
The deceased were all adult males, aged between 25 and 32.
Rural men are big and can kill seven such men in one go, so it can basically be ruled out that the murderer is a woman.
Therefore, at the beginning of handling the case, Gu Guangsheng listed the suspect as male.
"Why did the child later change his confession?"
Jiang Yang pointed to the confession, "There are eleven witnesses in total. In the first confession, everyone insisted that seven people were killed, and also gave an approximate time."
The file clearly records that seven people died in Shaiguba and were found at eight o'clock at night.
"Why did everyone except the child recant their confession and say they didn't know the second time?"
"Even the children said they couldn't remember the third time."
Deng Yaojun couldn't answer Jiang Yang's question.
"This... maybe I guessed it at first, but then I changed it because I was afraid of taking responsibility?"
He scratched his head.
Gu Guangsheng came out of the detention room at this time. He took the file in Jiang Yang's hand and frowned: "I advise you to give up on this case."
Not to mention that the statute of limitations for the prosecution period is less than a week, and the number of clues alone is approximately zero.
If you really want to check it, it is no different than a blind man trying to feel an elephant.
"There were originally eleven witnesses, but now there are only two left."
Gu Guangsheng pointed to two of the names: "Gu Yong, who is 60 this year, and Gu Fanglin, who is 28 years old, is the child who reported the crime."
"This was the first major case I came into contact with when I entered the Criminal Investigation Brigade. It happened to rain on the day we dispatched the police. When we arrived at Qingquan Village, there were no traces. At that time, there was no surveillance everywhere like now. The electricity is not connected and there is no surveillance installed at all.”
"At first, Gu Fanglin insisted that he saw the murderer and gave detailed information."
Having said this, Gu Guangsheng turned to the next page and pointed it to Jiang Yang.
"Well, it's him, Gu Ping, Gu Fei's uncle."
"Although others did not see the murderer's face, judging from the confession given, it matches Gu Pinghe."
"However, the witness's confession has been changed frequently and has lost its credibility. In addition, the child's confession can only be used as a reference and cannot be used as evidence, so this case has not progressed."
This was a big blow to Gu Guangsheng, who had just joined the police force and was bent on fighting criminals.
Every year thereafter, he would take the time to go to Qingquan Village to visit Gu Fanglin and Gu Ping, hoping to find new clues.
However, contrary to expectations, it was as if the murders that year had never happened.
People should farm the land and go to school.
Gu Fanglin had excellent grades and was admitted to a high school in Fu City. Then he left Fu Province and went to a high school in Kyoto.
Speaking of this, Gu Guangsheng's tone unconsciously contained regret.
"The failure to solve this case is my heartache."
There is no reliable confession, no witnesses and no physical evidence.
Fingerprints and the murder weapon were nowhere to be found.
This kind of unsolved case will have no results in any era.
That's why Deng Yaojun and Gu Guangsheng persuaded Jiang Yang to give up.
Spending time and energy on this case is a waste.
But Jiang Yang was very interested.
Is it a murder case, an old case, or a major case? How many points do you get if you solve this case?
Just as his eyes were shining, the system jumped out with a wink.
【Ding! A serial murder case has been detected, and the host is asked to solve it as soon as possible. The shorter the time, the more points you will get! 】
Immediately after Jiang Yang saw the light green task bar, it showed that solving the case within 24 hours would earn 2,000 points, 48 hours would be 1,000 points, and 72 hours would be 500 points.
Not only can he contribute to the system task of "an old case", but he can also get so many points in vain. He is determined to win this case!
For ordinary people, the possibility of investigating this case is indeed infinitely close to zero, but he has a crime radar that can display the detailed information of the criminal and the crimes he has committed.
As long as he sees Gu Ping, the truth will be revealed.
But before he goes to find Gu Ping, he has to interrogate Gu Fei again and meet Gu Fanglin.
He is very curious about what made the eleven witnesses change their confessions one after another.
When the police investigate a case, they must have evidence.
Only he can see the crime radar. If he can't produce convincing evidence to support the result, the confession of the criminal alone is still not perfect.
It is also easy to be criticized.
Jiang Yang did what he said, and stood up from his seat, startling the two people who were immersed in the case.
"Captain Gu, I want to interrogate Gu Fei again."
"I also want to see Gu Ping and Gu Fanglin."
He stared at Gu Guangsheng with burning eyes, "The Qingquan Village homicide case must not be let go."
"Jiang Yang, I know you are eager to solve the case, but..."
Gu Guangsheng wanted to persuade him, fearing that he would spend a lot of time and energy but not get a satisfactory result, and be hit like himself when he was a rookie.
But when he met Jiang Yang's burning gaze, he couldn't say anything.
"Forget it, if you want to investigate, then investigate. Anyway, the statute of limitations is only five days."
"Gu Fanglin is at the Kyoto Institute of Physics. You can't see him for a while. I'll call him and ask him to come back. It just so happens that the industrial chain of smuggling and forging documents in Qingquan Village has been uprooted by us. There is also a legitimate reason for him to cooperate with the investigation. Director Liu will definitely approve it."
"As for Gu Ping, I'll take you there after Gu Fei is interrogated."
