Chapter 70: Interrogation
"Team Zhang, do you need me to make a record for them?"
As soon as the middle-aged policeman led Zhong Yuanan and the manager into the office building of the Public Security Bureau, a female policeman greeted him and asked.
"You don't understand the situation." The middle-aged policeman known as Team Zhang waved his hand and said, "Please send the two of them to the interrogation room first, and I will interrogate them separately later." ”
"Judge ......?!" The policewoman was obviously a little surprised, the difference between making a record and an interrogation was too great, unless it was for someone who was already suspected, it was called an interrogation.
Could it be ...... The two people brought back by Team Zhang are suspects?
Team Zhang is such a professional person, shouldn't he have this kind of slip of the tongue, right?
Team Zhang did not explain her suspicions, but suddenly changed the conversation and asked, "By the way, is Xie Ju here?" ”
"I think I'm in the office." The policewoman replied.
"Okay, you send them into the interrogation room, and I'll go to the Xie Bureau first." Team Zhang said, and walked straight to the stairs.
Director Xie's office is on the third floor, and Team Zhang is climbing the stairs briskly, while taking out his mobile phone to call a technical colleague who is still busy at the scene of the crime.
"Team Zhang." The phone was quickly picked up by a young man, who greeted him respectfully.
"Yes. Xiao Liu, you are in charge of the crime scene now, right? ”
"That's right, Team Zhang, the preliminary survey is almost ready, it seems that the murderer we encountered this time is not very smart, the footprints at the scene, fingerprints are everywhere, and more importantly, a large amount of bodily fluids left in the body of the deceased...... This guy is such a crazy idiot. Xiao Liu humorously reported to the leader truthfully.
His tone is very relaxed, as a person who has been engaged in criminal investigation work for many years, he has become accustomed to such cases, and it is actually very gratifying to encounter this kind of careless murderer who does not know how to cover up his traces, because it means that solving the case is just around the corner, and the solving rate can be easily improved, and then the year-end bonus will be ......
"This case is not simple, you tell the other brothers that all the evidence and information about the crime scene and the autopsy must be kept strictly confidential, and cannot be leaked to anyone else, including colleagues, without my permission! Do you understand? ”
Xiao Liu hesitated for a little for two or three seconds, not understanding why Team Zhang said so strictly in this seemingly simple case, but he still quickly obeyed: "Understand Team Zhang, don't worry!" ”
"Also, copy the surveillance video from the store right away."
"I've already seen it with my colleagues. Team Zhang, the deceased came with a young man, he is currently the biggest suspect, we have asked the people in the hotel, they have not seen the man go out, and there is no picture of him walking out of the hotel in the surveillance...... By the way, the window in the room was open, and we took footprints on the windowsill, and there is a good chance that the guy jumped out of the window and escaped! ”
"yes, got it." Team Zhang said lightly. "If you jump out of the window...... It's a pedestrian street outside the window, right? Go and investigate the neighborhood to see if there is any surveillance that has captured him. ”
"Understood."
Team Zhang thought for a second or two, and then added: "Also, ask everyone in the store if there are any other people who have gone up to the second floor during the time period before and after the crime, and if any, bring them all back." ”
"Understood!"
……
After explaining to Xiao Liu, Team Zhang quickly came to the third floor and knocked on the door of the director's office.
"Enter." The director, who was reading the newspaper, said casually.
"Thank you." Team Zhang entered the goalkeeper and closed the door, and greeted him respectfully.
"What's the matter?" The director put down the newspaper in his hand, leisurely picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and asked unhurriedly.
Director Xie is already over the age of sixteen and will retire in another year, and the captain of the criminal police in front of him, who has developed limbs and brains, is his most powerful and trusted subordinate, and he is also the most popular candidate to succeed him next.
Team Zhang, who has always been resolute, did not get straight to the point as before, but walked up to the director and lowered his voice before saying, "Director, report something to you." ”
"What? Is there such a coincidence? ”
After listening to Team Zhang's concise report, Xie Ju's hand holding the teacup suddenly froze, and he frowned deeply......
Ten minutes later, the hotel manager, who was fidgeting in the interrogation room, finally waited for Team Zhang.
"Alas, comrade, you can be regarded as here, I am here to provide clues, not to be interrogated, you threw me here for more than ten minutes, what is this, this happened in the store, I have a big mess of things waiting to be dealt with over there, I ......"
"Shut up and sit down!" Team Zhang simply stopped his chatter, slapped the notebook in his hand on the table, and snorted coldly.
The manager immediately closed his mouth and obediently sat down at the table.
"Officer, I'm really busy over there...... Actually, I didn't explain the situation on the way here, I ......."
"In such a big hotel, there are no cameras in the corridors, and it took so long for you to find out that a guest was killed, this is Yan zhòng's mismanagement, understand? Also, your hotel has so many VIP private rooms, and the sound insulation effect of each package is so good, is it really a pure food service? Is there any shady deal? Now it seems that your hotel really has a big problem, I want to contact the relevant departments to ask you to suspend business, and then come to a comprehensive and thorough ......"
Team Zhang's words suddenly made the manager soften, you must know that the city bureau is the highest security management agency in the room, the hotel is so big, it is too easy for the police to find trouble, just a simple investigation, let you close the door for ten days and a half months, and then the business will be all yellow.
Therefore, his attitude immediately took a 180-degree turn.
"No, no...... Don't. Comrade, if you want to toss like this, I will definitely not be able to keep my job, I will cooperate with your investigation, definitely, absolutely ......"
The manager's humble attitude made Team Zhang nod in satisfaction, and he tapped his index finger on the metal tabletop and began to ask formally, "The first person to find the deceased was Zhong Yuanan, right?" ”
"Yes."
"What exactly is Zhong Yuanan responsible for? What was he doing in the period before he found the dead? ”
"The waiter in our hotel is responsible for the division according to the room number, Zhong Yuanan is responsible for 201 to 206, and he is usually ready to meet the needs of guests in the corridor on the second floor, serving food, drinking, or something, if the customer has no needs, he is waiting in the corridor on the second floor."
"Second question, in the other rooms on the second floor at the time of the crime, which ones were still with guests?"
"Like...... There is an old couple in 205, and the other private rooms are empty, it is still early at this time, and it is not at the peak, and these rooms on the second floor are VIP rooms, so ......"
Team Zhang waved his hand, obviously not interested in listening to him explain why business was cold, and then asked, "Who usually has the key to the room?" ”
Manager: "Foreman." Of course, I also have a backup set here. ”
Team Zhang: "Where does the foreman usually put the key?"
Manager: I guess it's in the cabinet at the front desk of the hotel. ”
Team Zhang: "In other words, it is not difficult for others to get the key to the private room...... Well, during the time before the body was found, did Zhong Yuanan stay on the second floor, and did he ever go downstairs? ”
Manager: "This ...... I don't know, I'll have to ask other people to find out......"
At this point in the conversation, the manager felt more and more that things were a little inexplicable, and the perpetrator was obviously the male guest who came with the female deceased, but the police officer kept asking about the internal affairs of the hotel, and did not say a word about the male guest.
Taking advantage of Team Zhang's time to think, the manager said in a tentative tone: "Comrade, I think the most suspicious thing is the male customer who came with the deceased, and no one in the store saw when the customer left, so ......"
"Go on." Team Zhang raised his eyebrows and said lightly.
"So I think we should pull up the surveillance footage of the store and see when the male customer left......" the manager said cautiously. He deliberately said "we should" instead of "you should", thinking that this would bring him closer to the police and make him more cooperative.
Who knows, this iron-faced and selfless police officer clearly didn't appreciate this feeling, he said coldly: "It's not us, it's us." Moreover, we have long thought of what you can think of, and now the surveillance footage is already on the way. ”
"Yes, yes, yes." The manager nodded like a peck of rice.
"Also, this case is of a bad nature, the impact is very bad, and it happened in your hotel, so whether it is public or private, you have to cooperate with us and try your best to find out the culprit, understand? You'll have to stay here a little longer, and we might have something to ask later. ”
The manager was reluctant in his heart, but he still nodded with a bitter face: "Okay......"
