Chapter 161: Reverse Thinking

Because he wanted to lead the team to handle the case, Min Xue's office had changed places and was no longer in the same place as Lu Qianbai.

Min Xue didn't sleep all night, and when he looked up again, the office was crookedly asleep.

This one... It's a sin, he didn't want people to work overtime, it didn't make sense, and it made people hate it.

Min Xue just felt that there were some things in this case that he hadn't figured out, and he fell into contemplation and didn't care about external objects at all, but he didn't expect the brothers to be so conscious.

knocked on Cao Xiaobai's table, "Hey, the sun is drying your ass!"

Cao Xiaobai raised his head with sleepy eyes, "Oh... Huh?"

If it's a two-dimensional world, Min Xue's forehead must have dripped a big bead of sweat, can you not be funny, sister?

"This, it's really smooth, I'm used to it..."Cao Xiaobai can't wait to burrow her head under the table! Usually steamed buns tell her to get up, but she really doesn't react!

"Breakfast is coming!"

Peng Jitong's shouting saved Cao Xiaobai.

As soon as the door opened, Peng Jitong, who was carrying several large plastic bags of food, walked in energetically, which was in stark contrast to the indoor atmosphere.

Peng Ji looked strange and didn't look weird, and started breakfast, and Cao Xiaobai hurriedly got up to help.

Voices such as "Thank you Brother Peng" and "Xiao Peng is polite" came and went, and Peng Jitong integrated into the environment all of a sudden, what an old fritter.

In the end, Peng Jitong took a piece of soy milk and xiaolongbao and handed it to Min Xue, "How is it, have you gained anything this night?"

I poured a large mouthful of soy milk, and the warm feeling swept away the fatigue of the night, which made people feel very comfortable.

Min Xue replied, "It's a little idea..."

Before I finished speaking, the phone rang, it was an office phone!

Min Xue's intuition was that the clue was coming, so he walked a few steps quickly and picked up the phone.

As expected, the content of the call was indeed about the clues of the case, but unfortunately, it was not good news.

According to the murder weapon, the axe, the interviewers did find a hardware store in the nearby town of Sunjiaqiao, and according to the owner, their family had entered this kind of axe last summer.

It's all sold, but the axe is not a valuable item, and they don't have a small faΓ§ade to keep track of who they sold it to.

And it's been too long, and I have long forgotten when it was sold, but I remember that it was sold out at the end of last year and the beginning of this year.

In a word, the clue to the murder weapon is broken here again.

Hearing the content of the phone call, everyone was silent, damn it, why didn't there be any good news.

Peng Jitong stretched out his hand and patted Min Xue, "Don't worry, I only finished surveying the scene yesterday, how can there be results so quickly." ”

A team member next to him stuffed breakfast, and his mouth was not idle, "How can you not be in a hurry, think about it, Min Xue seems to have solved the case for more than three days!"

When everyone thinks about it, it seems like this?

Brother Min is so awesome, Cao Xiaobai's eyes began to light up again.

"It's nothing!" Min Xue immediately stopped everyone's imagination, he was really afraid that everyone would come up with a bandit such as "Kuaishou Min San" on a whim.

And if you really put up this flag, the pressure is huge!

"Didn't you just ask me what I had in mind?" Min Xue began to change the subject, "Originally, it was just a preliminary idea, but combined with the content of the phone call just now, I have a new direction of investigation!"

"Oh?" Peng Ji couldn't help but secretly say in his heart, this kid really has a bit of a way, and he has been thinking about this case, but now he really doesn't have any other ideas except to check the source of the corpse.

"Do you know what the average height of an adult man in the south is?" Min Xue suddenly seemed to ask a digression.

Although Cao Xiaobai was confused, he still replied, "I seem to have seen similar reports, about 1.7 meters." ”

Then Cao Xiaobai had a flash of inspiration, "Brother Min, are you saying that the deceased is most likely not a local?

After all, the deceased was 1.83 meters tall, which is considered tall in the south.

Peng Jitong felt a little ridiculous, "According to what you said, there is no need to check the source of the corpse in some cases, and you can know where you are from just by looking at your height." ”

Min Xue shrugged his shoulders, he also knew that this argument was untenable, so he continued to analyze, "We are looking for the source of the corpse now, but we have actually fallen into a dead end, so we might as well jump out and think backwards." ”

"It is not difficult to see from the place where the body was dumped that the murderer should be very familiar with the nearby terrain, otherwise it is difficult to know that there will be such a well in the barren field..."

At this point, everyone nodded thoughtfully.

"So I'm wondering, could it be that the deceased wasn't a local, but the murderer was?"

Hearing Min Xue's words, many people's eyes lit up, which was very reasonable! After adding this reason, even Peng Jitong could not refute it.

"But we don't have a clue what the characteristics of the murderer are, even if we know that he is a local, how can we investigate?" Cao Xiaobai said the question in everyone's minds.

Only Peng Jitong was a little unsure and said, "What you just said about reverse thinking, do you mean the murderer?"

"That's right, if a person does something bad, most of them will have any unusual actions, we might as well assume that the murderer absconded after killing someone, and check it out!" Min Xue affirmed Peng Jitong's thoughts.

"We can also narrow it down to the time when the hardware store enters the axe and sells it out, so it's easier to check!

Min Xue nodded, the son can be taught!

This trick of reverse thinking is really eye-catching, with a direction, everyone swept away the sleepiness of working overtime and one night, and started work with enthusiasm.

"Okay, young man, your brain is very active. ”

As a disciple of Beiliantai, Peng Jitong did not show the idea of being unconvinced at all, which can be said to be quite magnanimous.

But in fact, the competition must exist, Peng Jitong secretly made up his mind that he must rush before Min Xue and solve this case!

Min Xue didn't have so much thought, he was thinking about solving the case as soon as possible.

This thing is like solving a math problem when I was in school, I can't solve it in a day, it's like a fish in my throat and it's uncomfortable, is this considered obsessive-compulsive disorder? Anyway, thanks to this, Min Xuecai has achieved the name of a scholar.

After locking the time between last summer and the beginning of this year, the investigation of missing persons in Sunjiaqiao and nearby villages and towns has proceeded quite quickly.

A day later, a clue came.

In Sunjiaqiao Town, there is a person named Zhang Shan, who left a message at the beginning of this year and disappeared, which is very in line with the conditions set by Min Xue.

This is not over, and the interviewers also found out that Zhang Shan sent a car for repair at the end of last year.

The problem is that this car has only been bought for half a year, and it is still in a brand new state, but Zhang Shan asked for the whole car to be painted, and he has not picked it up!

Peng Jitong was speechless for a while, this Zhangshan, can it be more abnormal? Just shout that I am a murderer, come and arrest me!

So in this round, before he could show his skills, Min Xue had already won?
