side edge

July 7 at 21:11 p.m. sharp.

Yan Cun pulled up a chair and sat two meters away from the corpse, expressionlessly ate a pineapple bun bought by Jianghuai to relieve the dizziness caused by prolonged hunger.

Jiang Huai went to the back kitchen to get a cup of warm water and handed it to him, while the others temporarily blocked the scene of the incident.

"I can get first-hand clues at the crime scene," Jiang Huai pulled a chair and sat beside Yan Cun, "It's awesome? Huh?"

Yan Cun took the cup and sipped some water, his face turned a little rosy, subconsciously glanced at Ji Liao who was leaning on the door frame with arms wrapped around him, and then lowered his voice.

"It's really awesome. After 719, there will be 721."

"..." Ji Liao glanced sideways at them.

Jiang Huai sighed: "I never thought that the one who died was..." He paused, "I just saw it a few hours ago."

The identity of the deceased was preliminarily determined to be Zhou Hongxin, the director of the crew.

The moment they heard the screams, the two rushed out of the elevator to the scene of the accident at the same time - the corridor between the 20th and 21st floors, which is the safe exit where Jianghuai slipped into the banquet hall four hours ago.

Immediately afterwards, I saw the corpse and the cleaning staff who fainted from fright.

Yan Cun said wearily: "I never thought that there would be so many dead spots for monitoring in this hotel."

Chengfeng Hotel’s security exit and connecting corridors are not equipped with surveillance cameras. Although the relevant departments do not have mandatory requirements in this regard, who would have thought that this would also encounter a murder case, which is a bit of a fantasy.

In other words, the perpetrator may be very familiar with the structure of the hotel.

"Team Yan," Zhang Jingze yawned, "The surveillance cameras in the lobby, elevator, and banquet hall on the first floor have all been checked, and your and whoever's whereabouts have been recorded, so we can start the investigation without any suspicion of committing the crime. "

Yan Cun nodded: "Thank you."

After eating a few mouthfuls of food and regaining some strength, he stood up on the chair and looked around the crowd: "How many of you are there?? The technical squadron didn't send anyone? Where's Wen Lianyi?"

"I didn't answer, maybe I didn't hear it," Jiang Huai said, "The forensic doctor of the detachment resigned last month, and the newly assigned junior forensic doctor is still practicing at the grassroots level."

"...How long has this been an internship?" Yan Cun choked speechlessly, "Put him back soon!"

"All right, all right," Jiang Huai scratched his head, "Tomorrow I will ask someone to put him back."

Yan Cun sighed, and after arranging the investigation task, he took out the white rubber gloves from his pocket and put them on, knelt down on one knee and started the autopsy.

After observing for a while, he pulled the phone out of his pocket.

"...What are you doing?" Ji Liao said quietly.

Yan Cun turned his head when he heard the sound, and found that Ji Liao had appeared next to him at some point, staring at him condescendingly.

"What are you doing?" Yan Cun glanced at him, "Why are you still here? The suspicion is basically ruled out, you can go back to your room and stay. If there are other questions during the investigation, we will send someone to ask you for questioning."

"……Oh."

Ji Liao responded and continued to stare at Captain Yan for the autopsy.

Yan Cun took a picture by himself, his back felt chills from being stared at, and he raised his voice, "?? What are you doing?"

Ji Liao's expression seemed to be a bit tangled, and after a long time, he finally said, "I'll take it back for testing, senior... you go and investigate first."

"???" Yan Cun was stunned, "...test? What test?"

He caught another word in the other party's words: "Senior???"

The amount of information is huge!

Ji Liao took out the white rubber gloves from his bag, put them on, and handed the ID to Yan Cun at the same time.

"Preliminary observation shows that the deceased's head and the wall at the corner of the stairs were stained with a lot of blood, and he should have been pushed down the stairs from near the safety door." During his speech, he had already taken out the SLR from his bag and started taking pictures. As for the knife wound, we have to wait for specific tests to know what the fatal injury is."

Yan Cun was stunned for a long time before reaching out to take the forensic medical certificate.

"Which department are you from?"

This person looks to be in his early 20s, and he exudes an aura that strangers should not get close to - or it may be due to his fixed thinking. Yan Cun feels that he is probably just a second-generation ancestor who is ignorant and incompetent. The group of crooked melons and cracked dates in the technical squadron didn't stick to it, it seemed more like a band.

So... it's not trouble, but a colleague? ?

Psychedelic.

"University A has just graduated and is still an intern." Ji Liao took photos of the corpse from all angles to collect evidence, and answered casually.

Yan Cun: "Oh..."

He glanced at the extraordinarily luxuriously decorated banquet hall upstairs, and asked his soul question: "Shouldn't the children in your family learn some management and inherit hundreds of millions of family assets? Why do you want to study forensic medicine?" ?”

"..." Ji Liao was speechless, "I have an older brother."

"Cough," Yan Cun didn't waste any more time interrupting, "Well, you check first, and I'll come back after I investigate."

Ji Liao gave a casual "hmm", and immediately returned to the previous appearance in the elevator, unwilling to give Yan Cun any more out of the corner of his eye.

Yan Cun didn't care, and went upstairs to the banquet hall in three steps and two steps, and adjusted the surveillance video on his mobile phone to around six in the afternoon.

He seemed to think of something suddenly, and walked quickly to Jiang Huai's side.

"When you told me that Luo Qingsen and Zhou Hongxin were looking at each other, who was around?"

Jiang Huai was stunned: "Huh?"

Yan Cun said: "Just when I first arrived at the banquet hall, when we were talking."

Jiang Huai quickly realized: "You mean..."

Yan Cun shook his head: "It's just my guess."

In the case of Luo Qingsen's falling from the building, without finding the USB flash drive, there is basically no clue, so all doubts can only be ruled out first.

When speculating on the possibility of the victim's family seeking revenge, it was judged that Luo Qingsen might be the murderer in advance—and according to the results of the interview and investigation just now, Luo Qingsen and Zhou Hongxin had a close relationship during their lifetime, and it is very likely that they were killed. The victim's family considers it an accomplice.

A large part of the reason why Yan Cun was able to become the captain of the Criminal Investigation Detachment at the young age of 28 was his "metaphysical case handling" skills, which maintained a murder detection rate of 90.00% in Qinjiang City by relying on intuition and guesswork... Of course, this kind of The reason is impossible to write in the file, mainly because the former captain has retired and there is no one to replace him.

In terms of age and seniority, Yan Cun may not be ranked high, but in terms of personal ability and skill mastery, he is indeed the best candidate for the head of the criminal investigation team.

"At that time, we were not very close to their questioning," Jiang Huai muttered, "The voice was also deliberately lowered, so no one should have heard it."

"Team Yan!" Someone yelled at them, "I found a broken listening device at the corner of the table!"

Jianghuai: "???"

Yan Cun: "..."

Jiang Huai: "Ah, this."

Yan Cun frowned and stepped forward to take the bug that seemed to be crushed by a heavy object. He lowered his eyes and pondered for a while, then put it into the evidence bag and handed it to Ji Liao, wanting to see if it was possible to detect fingerprints.

"What should we do now?" Jiang Huai exchanged a glance with the captain beside him.

"I still feel that something is wrong with Li Wenxin," Yan Cun said, "but there is no motive or evidence. I will find time for her to come to the detachment tomorrow. Today, I will rule out the suspicion of other crew members in turn."

Jiang Huai nodded: "Alright."

The previous questioning was mainly to investigate Luo Qingsen's social relationship. He learned that he was close to director Zhou Hongxin and screenwriter Wang Yuan in the film crew, so Yan Cun went to the hotel room on the 17th floor first, and sounded the screenwriter Wang Yuan's request. door.

After a while, Wang Yuan opened the door a little, and Yan Cun showed his work card to show his intention to come.

"Ah...ah?!" Wang Yuan opened his mouth in disbelief, "Zhou, Zhou guides him..."

Yan Cun said 'hmm': "So now we have to investigate you first." He turned on the surveillance video in his mobile phone, "Tonight around 9:40, where are you?"

It took Wang Yuan a long time to recover from the shock, and he stammered, "I, I went back to my room after 8 o'clock tonight, and I haven't been out..."

"How much is 8 o'clock?" Yan Cun asked.

"Around 8:15..." Wang Yuan seemed to think of something, "Yes, yes! My girlfriend is still in the room. No, if you don't believe me, ask her, I have never been out!"

He raised his eyes and glanced behind Wang Yuan, only to see that the girl in the room was poking her head cautiously, and nodded nervously: "The two of us have been in the room just now, and have never gone out..."

Yan Cun pulled the time point of the surveillance video, confirmed that Wang Yuan's words were true, and then asked, "Has Zhou Hongxin seen anyone in the past two weeks? Or, do you know his whereabouts in the past two weeks?"

"Ah?" Wang Yuan was stunned, "I, he and I have been revising the script for the past two weeks, meeting with investors, and preparing for the opening banquet, etc. No, but I don't know the break time... "

Yan Cun called up the photos of Yang Jingjing and Li Guo from his mobile phone, and asked Wang Yuan if he knew them. Wang Yuan took a closer look at the photos, then shook his head and said that he had never seen them.

Seeing that Wang Yuan's expression was normal, Yan Cun nodded lightly, and went through the procedure to investigate the rest of the crew first.

After a while, Jiang Huai also finished his question from the other end of the corridor. The assistant director and leading actor who had more contact with Zhou Hongxin were not suspected. The leading actress Ji Shuwang did not stay in the hotel tonight because of being frightened, and returned to Dongcheng District by herself. at home.

"I just asked something," Jiang Huai said, "Lu Xiaorui, the third female lead in the film, is an investor, that is, the person Luo Qingsen forced into the crew. Zhou Hongxin, Wang Yuan and Luo Qingsen discussed adding roles to her before. There was some unpleasantness."

Yan Cun asked: "Have you investigated her?"

"Nope."

Yan Cun nodded, and the two knocked on Lu Xiaorui's door.

"9:40?" Lu Xiaorui asked suspiciously, "I was talking on the phone with my best friend at that time, and the phone also has call records."

Jiang Huai took the phone and checked it, confirming that there was indeed such a thing.

"What is your relationship with Luo Qingsen? Have you been together for the past two weeks?" Yan Cun continued to ask, "Did he act abnormally a few days before he fell?"

"I have nothing to do with him..." Lu Xiaorui glanced at the two of them vaguely, "It's just... that kind of relationship, the one that doesn't last long."

She continued: "I have no schedule for the past two weeks, and even when I went home, Mr. Luo never contacted me."

Yan Cun confirmed Lu Xiaorui's ticket information, and then showed her the photos of the two victims on the phone: "Do you know these two people?"

Lu Xiaorui squinted her eyes, and slowly shifted her gaze from Yang Jingjing in the photo to Li Guo, was stunned for a while, and gave a soft 'ah'.

"I've seen this person before." She pointed to Li Guo, "She seems to be... Director Zhou's lover."
