Chapter 36: Time
The traffic police came quickly, and he was a small policeman who drove a motorcycle.
"What's going on?" He parked his motorcycle, saw the driver of the Buick stuck in the cab and the driver of the bus who was chained to the ground, and hurriedly got out of the car.
The convict saluted him and handed out his papers.
The little traffic policeman took the certificate, glanced at it, and thought of the hostage kidnapping and β‘β‘ case that occurred, he quickly saluted and handed back the document: "Oh, oh, the captain of the torture, you are going to the scene over there!" β
The criminal servant company was noncommittal.
At this moment, Lin Chen suddenly turned his head and said, "He may have a cervical spine injury, and he should not be strict, but he still has to call emergency personnel." β
"Well, the ambulance should be here soon." The little traffic policeman leaned over to look at the situation in the car, and saw that the driver was conscious and looked fine, but he didn't dare to move, so he walked around the car, he said, walked to the hot middle-aged driver who was tortured by the torture company, and quietly asked the torture slave, "This is what you tortured?" β
The torturer nodded: "Let him calm down, and I'll untie him later." β
"Fuck, he hit Lao Tzu, you police torture Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu wants to complain!" When the driver heard this, he twisted and squirmed on the ground.
"Hey, master, you see that your car is obviously changing lanes, changing lanes and not letting you go straight, and you are fully responsible for what happened."
Seeing that the little traffic police began to educate the driver who caused the accident, Lin Chen interrupted him: "Have you called an ambulance?" As he spoke, he was a little incredulous, because he had seen the little traffic policeman come all the way with his own eyes, but he had never heard him say anything to the walkie-talkie.
"Wait a minute, I'll see."
The small traffic policeman Deng Dengden ran on the bus, took off a silver-gray tablet from the side of the dashboard, and then ran out of the car, pressed a few times on the tablet, and soon, the tablet clearly displayed the vehicle's driving record, as well as a series of parameters after the impact.
This tablet is really familiar to Xing Conglian, because earlier today, it was this thing that played them around.
Lin Chen and Xing Conglian glanced at each other with a tacit understanding, and they came to the side of the small traffic police.
"Well, it's been automatically alarmed." As he spoke, he showed the screen to Lin Chen, which clearly showed that he had automatically called the high-speed traffic police brigade and the 120 emergency center.
At this moment, the intercom on the chest of the little traffic policeman also sounded: "Xiao Cao, is there another accident over there?" β
"The collision of two cars is not considered strict, but someone was injured, is the ambulance coming?"
"I'll take a look at ......," there was a pause, then he said, "We're already leaving." β
Xiao Cao traffic police nodded,
"It's so efficient." Xing Conglian felt that he had faintly grasped some important key.
"Yes, we have a new system, now more than 7 passenger vehicles, dangerous goods cargo vehicles, anyway, easy to have safety accidents of vehicles, are equipped with the latest positioning and call system, the command center will be through the guΓ² system to evaluate the comprehensive deployment of police and ambulance resources."
"The system you're talking about is based on ...... MEMS velocity agent or something? β
"The autonomous call for help system based on MEMS accelerometer, but this is just the name of the vehicle terminal, and the full name is 'Highway Safety Grading and Early Warning System'." The traffic police brother spoke very quickly, "This system is very good, especially in places like high-speed, the road is empty, some drivers are injured and unconscious, and they can't call the police, and the vehicles can automatically call the police, which is used abroad." β
That is to say, after the vehicle is hit, the car equipped with this kind of distress system will automatically assess the damage to the vehicle, and comprehensively analyze a series of factors such as the road condition of the model, and send a signal for help, and the command center system will send police and ambulances to the scene based on the alarm. The stricter the accident, the higher the system rating, and the more police and ambulance resources will be quickly allocated to such a strict accident? The sentence was contemplative, and his tone was solemn, "So, what about the opposite?" β
"What is the opposite?" The little traffic police don't quite understand what the criminal slave company means.
Xing Conglian turned around abruptly and patted the little comrade's shoulder gratefully: "What else do you know about this system?" β
"How...... What's wrong? The little traffic policeman looked at the solemn face of the criminal servant company, and suddenly became timid.
"Answer my question."
"This system, it seems to be introduced by the Touran Passenger Transport Company, the trial has been started since the previous year, and the effect is good, and it is slowly promoted to the whole province and even the whole country, anyway, all trucks, buses, especially dangerous goods vehicles and other vehicles that are prone to serious safety accidents, must be installed."
"Touran, this system was introduced by Touran Passenger Transport, why?" It's like there's a thread that connects everything.
"What's the reason for this, the system was introduced by Touran, and the agreement signed between Touran and the Transportation Bureau is responsible for the installation, promotion and maintenance of the system......"
Xing Conglian didn't answer again, he dragged Lin Chen to the side of the road.
"What's wrong?"
"Remember what time we got the news after the hijacking of the tourist bus at Maple View School?"
"About twelve fifteen?"
"Yes." The torture servant Lian's voice was low and solemn, "But the time when the bus was hijacked should be in the area from 8:30 to 9:00 ......."
"There was a three-hour gap in between." Lin Chen quickly realized the key, "We are too slow to react. β
In a small crash, the traffic police can arrive at the scene within a few minutes, but the children in the whole car were taken hostage, and it took more than three hours from the accident to the police receiving the police, which is simply a shocking thing!
"That kid, the answer to the car accident you want us to find should be very similar to the hijacking case he operated?"
"A car accident with severe consequences caused by the untimely response of the rescue."
"So, the target he's targeting, in fact, is the highway safety grading and early warning system?" Lin Chen stood on the edge of the guardrail, and even felt that the spring breeze was getting cold.
"Or, someone who has direct access to the system."
Xing Conglian dialed the dynasty again: "Did you get out of the car, is Yang Dianfeng still by your side?" β
"Huang Ze crossed the river and demolished the bridge, saying that he didn't need me anymore, let me lie directly in the reeds, what's wrong?"
"You stay away from Yang Dianfeng, I have a few questions for you."
There was a voice on the other end of the phone, and after a while, Wang Chao said, "Okay, I'll go quietly, very quietly!" β
"Is there a result of the case I asked you to compare?"
"You don't know how hard my working conditions are...... I checked, and only two students from Fengjing School were injured in a car accident on the Hongjing Expressway, but the injuries were not serious. β
"Are there any student relatives who died in a car accident?"
"Honestly boss, do you think that the carjacking was done by the little rabbit cub from Fengjing School?"
"A child of his age, of course, is still a student, and it is of course the most convenient to start from his own school, and it is also the most convenient to find someone willing to help him." The convict replied.
"Oh, I see." Wang Chao said, and opened another document: "Then, the immediate family members of three students at Fengjing School died in a traffic accident. β
If the system is still in the process of being promoted, then not all vehicles are forced to be installed: "You can find out whether there are any vehicles that have installed the MEMS autonomous call system in these three accidents, and the focus should be on passenger and freight vehicles." β
"Oh yes." Wang Dynasty replied in a low voice, his voice was a little hesitant, "It's a little bit wrong, boss?" β
"Got a clue?"
"In the early morning of May 11, 2014, the medium-sized Jinlong bus with a Hong A license plate, when it arrived at the Yongchuan River section, due to problems with the vehicle's braking system and the driver's driving error, caused the vehicle to overturn into Yongchuan, and there were 23 passengers on the car, none of whom were spared...... "Wang Chao took a deep breath, he read very slowly, and when he saw the next words, he only felt that his teeth and cheeks were cold: "In this accident, Fang Zhiming, a 40-year-old anti-narcotics policeman, died in the line of duty......"
Finding an answer in a thousand stories is of course like looking for a needle in a haystack, but finding the most special one among the three car accidents is a bit too simple.
Xing Conglian also thought that the case might be very heavy, Lin Chen did give him such a preventive injection, but he didn't think that this matter might be related to his sacrificed comrades, and it was also a long time before he finally spoke: "Send me the details of the case." And after he said this, he found that he even had a subtle sense of luck, he thought, it is also possible that this car accident has nothing to do with the "candy thief", and the young man who carjacked the car is not the child of an anti-drug policeman.
The email was quick to arrive, his fingers swiping across the screen of his phone, then froze stiffly.
The shock and sorrow in Lian Conglian's green eyes made Lin Chen have a very bad premonition in his heart, and he moved his gaze to the mobile phone screen, and the slender and well-proportioned and calm hand of the mixed-race young man trembled slightly.
Following the fingertips of the torture slave company, his gaze fell on the screen, a line of small paper.
[Two of the passengers died of severe head injury, one died of lung puncture, and the remaining 20 passengers drowned, the list is as follows......]
The sun is gone, and the spring breeze is cold.
"That's the story he's going to tell." Lin Chen raised his head and said slowly.
βββ
The convict drove at a deadly speed, and the sun chased after the body, and was quickly thrown away.
The story is very simple, the passengers drowned, which means that when they fall off a cliff or fall into the water, they are still alive, they may be injured or wailing, but they are all alive, the car does not sink into the river quickly, they wait and wait in the water, maybe five minutes or ten minutes or longer, until the cold water completely submerges them.
The criminal conglian was very serious and focused on driving, but his expression was too solemn, and the little traffic policeman who was forcibly taken into the car before he could deal with the accident didn't even dare to take a big breath.
"Don't worry, we just have something to ask you." Sensing the panic of the little traffic policeman, Lin Chen said in a low voice of relief.
"Me, how can I help?"
"How long have you been on duty on the highway?"
"Two years."
"In the course of two years on duty, have there been some car accidents that make you feel strange......"
"What do you mean by strangeness?"
"For example, because the rescue was not timely, the director suffered heavy casualties in a car accident."
"What do you mean by this, what do you mean that the rescue is not timely!" Hearing this, the little traffic police were a little angry, "The section of the road where the car accident occurred is not something we can control, plus factors such as traffic jams, even if we want to rush to the scene as soon as possible, I have to have a plane to fly over!" β
"But did you know that the highway grading early warning system has its own loopholes."
"What's the loophole?"
"Graded alarms are based on vehicle impact parameters, aren't they? If the vehicle is damaged, the command center will receive the highest level of alarm, but if the car is not damaged, but a more critical event occurs...... For example, the whole bus turned into the middle of the river......"
"You are a special case, and besides, the bus fell into the river, how could it be that it was not damaged at all, we may receive an alarm, you and you...... The role of the highway grading early warning system cannot be denied because of this! The traffic police brother shook his head when he heard this.
"Didn't happen?" The criminal conglian honked his horn violently, "5.11 extraordinarily big car accident, the whole vehicle overturned into the Yongchuan River, has it never happened?" He looked in the rearview mirror, and his gaze was cold.
The traffic police brother frowned slightly, as if he didn't know why the criminal conglian suddenly mentioned the car accident: "I remember...... The 5.11 car accident was caused by the driver's operation error, and the driver had pressed the alarm button before the bus overturned into the river, and the medical team rushed to the scene as soon as possible. β
Hearing this, the criminal Conglian looked at the little traffic police in disbelief, "If the rescue is timely, then why did twenty passengers drown?" β
"The Yongchuan River is deep, and the river is urgent, it was late that day, and the rescue was more difficult, and when the rescue team arrived, many passengers were gone."
"But don't you think this car accident is too special?"
"This case, the casualties are indeed too heavy, but if you have to say that our police and medical personnel are not timely in the rescue, you can check the system to see if there is a problem with the time when the driver called the police and when we arrived at the scene."
The words of the little traffic policeman did not make Lin Chen easy.
Yes, just because the father was not rescued in time, he wanted to rob and kidnap children at gunpoint, which seemed too radical, too unreasonable, and unreasonable, and it was impossible to convince the driver to deceive the police, let alone those who might be secretly helping him.
But if this is not the case, then how terrible will the truth behind the incident be?
Without hesitation, he asked for the help of the tech nerd again.
Wang Chao was lying in the reeds, his whole body was half dry, and when he heard Lin Chen's voice on the phone, he suddenly had a spirit: "This gentleman, may I have anything to serve you?" β
"I suspect that there is a loophole in the highway safety grading and early warning system, can you find out the time when the on-board system sent a distress signal during the 5.11 car accident, and the specific time when the traffic police rescue department arrived at the scene of the car accident?"
"Oh, the one in the back is easy to check, it's in the traffic police file, I'll take a look at it," Wang Chao put the computer on his lap and sat on the ground, "On the day ......of 5.11, the time when the traffic police arrived at the scene was 21:20. β
"What about the automatic alarm time of the vehicle received in the early warning system?"
"This one...... This number jΓΉ has to be seen in the backstage of the traffic department, which is a little troublesome. β
"Did something happen?"
"Because of me, I'm going to do it again...... It's a matter of breaking the law and discipline......" Wang Chao said, raising his head slightly, looking at Huang Ze's proudly standing figure not far away, "When are you and the boss coming?" He said as he cautiously hacked into the Department of Transportation's system.
"What's going on on the scene?"
", Inspector Huang, don't you know, you can attack him and never negotiate, the snipers of the SWAT team are already in place, it's terrible, real CS, it's the first time I've seen it." After Wang Chao finished speaking, he tapped the enter key, "Bingo, 21:12." β
"In other words, the traffic police department only took 8 minutes to arrive at the scene?"
"yes, no problem."
Lin Chen put his phone to his ear, but he didn't know what to say for a while.
"No, there must be something wrong with this." The driver honked his horn to avoid the vehicle in front of him.
"Eh, I'll just say that you think too much, what rescue is not timely, no matter how late it is on the highway, there are cars coming and going, even if the car itself does not call the police, the passing driver will see it, and he will call the police."
Hearing this, Lin Chen suddenly thought of something, and the captain of the criminal police who was driving in front of him spoke first: "You're right, so, what if this is more than one, what about accidents?" β
"Dynasty, on the night of the 5.11 car accident, did the police system receive a manual alarm, I mean in addition to the automatic alarm of the on-board system." Lin Chen asked on the other end of the phone.
"This one...... Wang Dynasty checked the record again, and he couldn't wait for another eight hands, "It doesn't seem to be eh." β
"In other words, the road was very dark and empty, and no one witnessed how the accident happened." The torturer paused and asked, "Why is it so coincidental?" β
"Dynasty, if someone has modified the background records, can you find out?" Lin Chen finally asked.
