"There's no element of a crime scene here." At the moment when the FBI's forensic department arrived, a senior forensic officer stood at the mouth of the alley and said this.

The weekend felt the same way, because there was not the slightest sense of tyranny on the path, it was quiet as if nothing had happened, the garbage cans were placed squarely, there were no traces of trampling on the weeds on the side of the road, there was no blood on the ground, and there were no messy footprints on the surface that should have been on the surface during the fight...... There should be, there is none.

"Zhou, are you sure this is the scene where Catherine was kidnapped?"

Justin also began to hesitate, he saw a scene that had not been damaged in any way, and there was no clue from the superficial traces: "Catherine is Matthew's daughter, born into a police family and married to a police officer, such a woman will understand the seriousness of the matter when she is held hostage, even if she does not deliberately leave us clues, she will subconsciously resist thinking, here, it's too clean." ”

The so-called tyrannical atmosphere and elements of the crime scene refer to a deeper level of analysis, for example, if the vase that should have been placed on the coffee table is smashed at the crime scene, then the Forensic Science Section will analyze whether the vase was hit and fell to the ground or was used as a weapon, that is, the crime scene is not static in the eyes of these Frankenstein, but dynamic.

In the face of Justin's suspicions, he didn't speak on the weekend, and his mind was racing fast, leaving Carl and the people of the Western Bureau with Yu Justin on the bull.

"What the hell do you mean, big FBI lord? Are you saying that the people from the Western Branch deliberately found a path to trick you? After we received the news of Catherine's disappearance from the Parker main station, we stayed in the vicinity all morning to check the surveillance, and followed the surveillance video of Catherine leaving the building, and we checked the surveillance in front of all the shops in the vicinity all the way, until we determined the location of Catherine's last disappearance, which was a full two hours before we found the clues, and even the copy of the surveillance was ready, now. You say that to us? ”

Carl was so angry that he was busy all morning only to be questioned about the results of his work, which was not a good attitude to anyone.

Standing aside on the weekend and letting them argue, sorting out the whole scene in the order of his own thoughts, he first thought about Justin's question, that is, why Catherine didn't resist.

The non-resistance of the abductee is generally based on two disadvantages. First of all, Ted holds a gun, a gun is a mortal threat to anyone, under this threat, as long as the other party does not express his intention to kill, most people will choose to verbally give in and wait and see; Then, there are anesthetic drugs, and a person who has been injected with an anesthetic agent cannot resist at all.

So. Based on Ted's habit of never using a gun in previous cases, he prefers the choice of narcotics on weekends......

“S―H―I―T！” Cursed over the weekend, and suddenly there was a cloud of anger in his chest, if this anger could be pulled out, he wanted to completely ignite the whole of Los Angeles and burn Ted, who might still be here.

Many anesthetics are harmful to the fetus, and some can also cause fetal malformations and mental deficiencies when the fetus is not mature...... In case the dose of anesthetic drugs in Ted's control is too large......

"Everyone, please search carefully on this path, this case is very important to us." Justin choked on Carl. When he started communicating with the forensic department, he didn't just have to fight for breath. What's more, Ted used to be the one that even Joe couldn't catch.

At this moment, Weekend was already crouching on the ground, and he wanted to confirm his guess.

Catherine was a pregnant woman, and she was also a pregnant woman with a bulging lower abdomen, which proves that Catherine's weight will increase rapidly during pregnancy. This is common knowledge known to anyone who has ever served a pregnant woman; Ted is not a violent criminal, nor is he a muscular man with a lot of strength, Ted, who has never been filled with a sense of strength in the process of committing a crime, faces such a pregnant woman who collapsed after being anesthetized, his first choice is definitely not to carry it, he can only choose to hold or drag.

Is his strength enough?

CATHERINE REACHED A HEIGHT OF FIVE FEET NINE INCHES (175 CM), THIS HEIGHT. It is possible to use the forefoot to resist this weight at the moment Ted picks up Catherine, this is a habit of people to control the balance of their bodies, no one will use their heels to support the ground, except for a sudden incident that causes a hurried retreat when reversing. So, will Ted leave footprints under this pressure?

One footprint is enough to prove how Ted took Catherine.

The weekend was pretty sure that Ted was leaving with Catherine in his arms, and if he dragged it, it would leave a very noticeable drag mark on the trail, which would become unnatural even if it was treated...... Just as a dusty table can leave a mark when touched, the only way to deal with this mark is to wipe the table clean with a damp rag, and on this path, Ted is not in a position to wipe everything clean, and the earth color will be the first to betray him, because the color of the soil will become unique due to different levels.

In film and television dramas, the murderer buries people in the ground after killing people and covers the old soil is not suitable for modern times at all, he personally did this experiment on the weekend, he dug a pit in the ground, then buried it, and finally covered the old soil, the dug place was left there like a ghost shaving his head, which is completely different from the natural formation of the surface. If Ted dared to drag Catherine off this path, then the traces left behind would be a mark that he would never be able to erase in his life, and he would not be so stupid.

"SIR, I FOUND A FOOTPRINT!" After shouting this, the people from the FBI Forensic Division looked down at the footprints on the ground, looking very focused.

The weekend was the first to rush over, but what he saw was not a complete footprint, to be exact, half of it. It was a semi-arc-shaped crescent crescent mark, and inside the crescent crescent, there was a small dirt bag turned up, and when he saw this trace, he could imagine the picture of Ted stepping on the ground with his forefoot under pressure when he picked up Catherine.

It's just that this footprint is across the path, as if Ted is picking up Catherine sideways, and it is completely impossible to see the direction he left, and the point is, this footprint is very strange......

“SIR。 I suspect that this footprint is fake......" When the FBI forensic officer said this sentence to Justin, Justin said in disbelief: "Impossible, committing a crime in this kind of place, he should pursue speed, how can he have time to make fake footprints to confuse the police?" ”

"Have you ever seen such footprints in the city?" Turning to Justin on the weekend, he said, "These footprints are usually found in deserts, where the soil is so soft that a pit is left when you step on it. The footprints in front of you don't match the surrounding soil, this road is very solid, how can there be such a soft spot? This is not yet a place where dust tends to accumulate near the base of the wall. ”

It was strange to see this footprint on the weekend, there has been no rain in Los Angeles in recent days, and there is no water and mud on this road, in this case, the appearance of this footprint in front of me is very unreasonable, if it is a very shallow footprint mark, or even a mutilated sole edge mark can be said.

The weekend remembered the clues he had found in those books in prison. This fits well with Ted's style.

"Carl."

Weekend turned to Carl and asked, "How many exits are there on this road?" ”

"Three."

"Then we'll use the stupidest way possible."

Weekend continued: "Gentlemen, Ted must have come by car, so the people around him will definitely look twice when they see a man holding an unconscious pregnant woman in the car, let's not look for clues here to prove Ted's whereabouts, it is better to go directly to the various exits to ask." ”

Without this fake footprint, the weekend would rather waste some time here doing forensic work, at least so that he could know what was going on with Catherine when she left here. I can also have something to say when I go back to see Chekov and Matthew. However, he gave up doing it after the fake footprints appeared. With the fake footprints, the weekend will doubt every clue that appears on this path, and in the hesitation and inference to determine whether the clue is true or false, time will slowly pass with his judgment, squandering the best chance to hunt down Ted.

So why not settle for the next best thing?

Wouldn't it be nice to go straight to the exit and ask?

Sometimes, when you become a police officer, you have to learn to be flexible. Even if you have forensic skills.

On the weekend, he gave up what he was best at, leaving only a few forensic officers who were good at trace identification at the scene, and the rest of them walked separately to the three exits to ask the surrounding residents if they had seen a man in a suit carrying a pregnant woman into the car. He asked for it. It is the model and color of the car, and it is best to have a license plate.

Justin didn't have much of an opinion on this, and he had never been involved in the work of the Assurance Section.

So, the patrol officers and FBI detectives of the Western Branch Bureau walked separately to the three exits, and the inquiry is the basic skill of every police officer and police detective, and I feel that the results should come out soon......

But he miscalculated again, and he and Justin kept finding nothing during the questioning process, and when they called to contact others, they didn't get any clues!

No one saw the pregnant woman being carried out, but Catherine was seen turning into the path along the intersection.

This, how is this possible?

"That's your idea to solve the case?" Justin gave him a mocking look, the reason why he followed the advice of the weekend to inquire was entirely because he didn't know as much about the case as he did the weekend, and now it turned out that the decision was wrong, very wrong!

The weekend was stunned in place, and he couldn't think about it clearly, which was unreasonable!

If the car really existed, it would be impossible for no one to see the surrounding residents at ten o'clock in the morning, and even a pregnant woman walking by on the road would be unconsciously looked twice, and a person who got into the car with an unconscious pregnant woman in his arms, how could no one pay attention?

Unless......

The weekend reminds me of the desert ant hiding in the refrigerator, because only by hiding in a house near here can I avoid the surveillance of all road monitoring equipment, and also avoid the horse's feet exposed on the vehicle!

Just, do you dare to bet on the weekend?

If he had notified Matthew and brought in a large number of police officers to search the area, it would have been better to say that he had won the bet, but he had lost the bet...... That's a complete missed time to catch up with Ted, maybe after this search, the daylilies are cold. (To be continued......)

PS: Carl went to the exit when he found the scene to ask, it was the patrolman's accusation that he wanted to protect the scene, and the patrolman who found the crime scene could not leave until the investigators arrived.
