304 Pressing Steps
"So look at it from another perspective, because they're doing philanthropy, so we should trust them unconditionally?"
Holden is still the same Holden, but his unhurried words are sharp and sharp, and he can always grasp the initiative silently and skillfully in the midst of pressing step by step.
"......" Issa opened her mouth and tried to refute, only to find that the words were stuck in her throat, and she seemed to have somehow walked into Holden's trap, and she didn't even know how Holden did it, which made Issa feel frustrated.
And Holden's words without sharp edges and spikes still did not stop, "Without any confirmation, make a direct judgment, is this blind belief? Or are you deceived by your own blind spots? I think that the first rule of handling a case is to question and doubt all clues." ”
"These are two different things. Issa vaguely realized that she seemed to have made a mistake, but at this time, she had no way to think about it for the time being, so she could only follow her instincts.
"You are still underage, you have not entered the society, you should not know how much controversy the medical examination center is facing, and they can still hold on to the present, it is even more rare, our suspicion is actually a fatal blow to them. ”
"Do you think that those who oppose medical examination centers will not take advantage of the opportunity to make a fuss? Do you think that those who are dedicated to charity will not be harmed?"
In the face of Isa's aggressiveness, Holden's slowness and tenacity have a kind of lightness and tenacity, when arguing, loud voices do not mean right, and in the same way, when fighting, great strength does not necessarily lead to victory.
"Squadron leader, experience is very important, because experience can often quickly capture the context in the fog, but over-believing in experience is equivalent to blinding your eyes, from the moment you lose your suspicion and questioning psychology, you will also lose the possibility of solving the case. Suspicion is not to hurt the other party, on the contrary, this is the right means to protect the other party. ”
Hoden's words have always been peaceful and free, but he can always easily seize the upper hand, obviously without sharp words and offensive emotions, Issa can feel his own defeat, anger burning in his chest, even if he knows deep down that Hoden is right, but impulsive emotions still dominate the brain.
Issa blurted out directly, "Holden, haven't you ever been suspected?
"Of course. Hodden bowed his head in affirmation, "But instead of believing that people all over the world can keep their minds clear and believe in me unconditionally, let the whole world doubt me, and then prove it for yourself, prove my dirtiness, or prove my innocence, and then choose a stand." ”
"Squadron Leader Issa, it is precisely because there are too many ordinary people in this world who cannot distinguish right from wrong that your work is more important, and this is why you became a vigilante - if I remember correctly, but now, you chose to believe unconditionally because the other party is a charity, a great benevolent, and a pioneer with controversy?
"Please don't tell me that you believe that all the bad guys in this world have labels written on their faces. So, do you believe in justice, or do you believe in goodness?"
One step, one step at a time.
Hoden's firm and solid words forced Issa into a corner with heavy and powerful force, his expression stiffened slightly in place, and then revealed a helpless bitterness, and all his strength was retracted, "Hoden, are you always so hurtful?"
Hodden actually thought seriously for a moment, and then gave an affirmative answer, "Yes." I thought it was one of the few advantages I had. ”
With a snort, Issa was directly amused, "It's an illusion, Hodden, an illusion!
"Oh. Holden nodded honestly in understanding.
Issa's slightly depressed mood eased again, "Inspection center, what suspicious did you find?"
After all, Issa agreed with Holden, and even if he was unwilling, he was still suspicious of St. Peter's Examination Center.
"I can't be sure. Hodden told the truth, but felt Isa's critical eyes, and he had to add, "This time there is no but." ”
Issa's smile bloomed again.
"The only thing I can find out now is that the homeless people may have been tested at the examination center, and that's all. But even these are not 100% certain, after all, we did not see the homeless people go in with our own eyes, and we cannot investigate the information inside. ”
Holden continued to state his findings, and Issa looked pensive, as if pondering the possibility of investigating the inspection center.
"But my guess is that even if it can be established that these homeless people actually entered the examination center for health screening, it is unlikely to prove anything, at least, they will not leave a trace in terms of records. Perhaps, the inspection center is innocent, but we must remain skeptical. ”
Holden's supplementary explanation interrupted Isa's thoughts in time, but the words made Isa's eyebrows frown even more, "It's not okay to investigate, it's not okay not to investigate, so what should we do?"
"It's like the wandering house just now, start with the accounts. Hodden pointed out the direction, "Money, that's the most common element of criminal motivation. We can't determine the real motive right now, nor can we determine the cause of these homeless people or their disappearance or death, so we have to start here. ”
In fact, what Hodden is really curious about is whether it is Mr. Harford standing behind the tailor's shop, the inspection center, the homewandering house, and the company where Victor works.
If it were, then it was much simpler, but if it wasn't......
"Squadron Leader, those homeless people who died, can you investigate the specific cause of death?" Hodden knew there was little hope, but he still had to try.
Sure enough, Issa let out a heavy breath, "It's very difficult. Most of those deaths have not been filed, let alone further investigated, and many of them are just recorded, and even the names and physical characteristics are unknown. ”
"I can understand what you mean, and I'll start investigating it to see if I can find some hidden clues with the information I already have. Issa grabbed her hair, her already messy hair now even more bohemian.
"Ahh
Holden showed a big smile, "That's why they are looking for homeless people." Perhaps, we will never be able to know the truth, but at least we are trying, I think, it is also a kind of respect for the dead. ”
"Umani male god, I'm really, really sure you're not eighteen. Issa couldn't help but exclaim again.
Hoden nodded in affirmation, "Indeed, I still have more than a month to officially turn eighteen. ”
"......," Issa rolled her eyes, "yes, yes, don't remind me...... Oh, by the way, we have another case on hand recently. "Diagram of the Great Dao of the Heavens
