Chapter 95: Dagger
"Poof...... Ahem, ahem! Su Ping choked on the smoke and asked in horror, "How ...... How much does this dagger cost? β
"Close to ninety thousand." Brother Song replied.
"What's that?" The corners of Su Ping's mouth twitched: "Ninety thousand for a knife?" That broken shape is not good even if it cuts fruit, right? β
"It hasn't been cut yet, and it's obvious that people aren't using it." Lao Hai coughed dryly twice and said: "The pulp on the handle of the dagger also proves that people often take it out for fun, and they should love this line very much."
In fact, it's quite normal, just like those literary toys, walnuts, beads, we outsiders don't seem to be aware at all, and it's the inside, but for those who like it, tens of thousands of dollars are not money at all, and they buy it without blinking an eye. β
Su Ping's gaze slanted at him: "Then what are his eyes doing?" β
Lao Hai: "......"
Brother Song coughed dryly twice, and then said: "Ordinary people, obviously, they don't have the financial resources to spend such a large price to touch such a dagger, and they still abandon it at the scene. The scabbard of the dagger was also very valuable, and it was identified as a fine golden silk nanmu ......"
"That's not right," Su Ping interrupted him: "There's a paradox hereβif you don't really like it, you won't spend such a lot of money on this dagger, even if he burns a lot of money, then it's impossible to play with it to the extent of pulp, right?"
And if you really like it, how can you use this dagger to commit a crime, and leave the body of the knife at the scene, throw the scabbard in the trash, and just abandon it like a shoe? β
"This ......" Brother Song choked, scratched his head, and said, "I really didn't expect this."
So, could it be a false accusation? β
"Not impossible." Su Ping said softly: "The dagger that is close to 90,000 pieces should be quite special, plus hand-polishing, each one is unique, which can be used as ironclad evidence, important pointing evidence."
If your guess is correct, it was Zhao Guangbo who found the relevant evidence of a certain bigwig, then it is not impossible for the bigwig to spill the dirty water by the way and frame his political enemies when the bigwig decides to kill him.
After all, these guys are used to doing one step and three steps, and they are also used to trying to kill two birds with one stone or even kill multiple birds with one stone......
But this is not for sure, after all, it is not so simple to plant false accusations, they should know very well that when we handle cases, especially when the suspect is a 'big guy', we only pay attention to evidence.
Intellectually speaking, compared with planting blame, in fact, the safer way is to avoid being traced.
But after all, this dagger is worth a lot of money, and in addition to planting the blame, I am afraid that there is only one possibility of 'theft', which can explain why the murderer used this dagger to commit a crime and left it at the scene, because he did not know the value of this dagger at all, and he had no feelings for it. β
Several people nodded in agreement.
"So ......" Qi Yuan took over and asked, "Since this dagger is valuable and unique, can we use this as a breakthrough?"
Whether it's planting a blame or stealing the proceeds, as long as you can find its owner, you should have a relatively clear direction, right? For example, find out if he has been the victim of a theft, or if he has any political enemies or something. β
"It's that simple." Brother Song shook his head: "Don't say anything else, just look at the salary, do you think the so-called big guy can afford a dagger of 90,000 yuan?"
Relatively speaking, the probability that this dagger was the proceeds of theft is actually relatively high, but do you think that the thieves who broke into his house could have stolen only one dagger? Do you think he reported the crime? How dare he? Or rather, why didn't he dare to report the crime?
That guy himself is probably not clean, and it is too difficult to get his cooperation. β
"It's always a train of thought." Su Ping said softly: "If he doesn't cooperate, then investigate thoroughly, since it's not clean, then strip him of his old bottom, see if he still recruits, and if he cooperates." β
Qi Yuan swallowed his saliva and said with a dry smile: "Team Su is still so domineering......"
"Say what? Whose old bottom are you going to strip away? What's the trick? β
Xun Mu's voice came from the door of the conference room, and everyone couldn't help but turn their heads to look.
"Yo, Lao Xun, are you back?"
"Tell me more!" Xun Mu rolled his eyes: "Originally, you were responsible for this matter, but it turned out to be good, and suddenly threw everything to me halfway, which caused me to be in a hurry for a while, and I ran to make a report at night, and I have been busy until now......
Anyway, what else is going on? What are you talking about? New case? β
Su Ping shrugged his shoulders and looked at Qi Yuan: "Xiao Qi, you come to tell Lao Xun about the case." β
"Oh." Qi Yuan stood up and quickly told Xun Mu the facts of the case.
"......I see," Xun Mu pinched his chin and said: "Although there is no direct evidence pointing to the idea you are thinking, it is true that there is no other possibility at present, and proving or denying it is the only idea."
And this dagger has become the key to breaking the game.
Then let's do it, and just follow your train of thought. β
"It's all nonsense." Su Ping pursed his lips and said, "Hey, no, listen to you...... You're not going to take care of this case? β
"I can't manage it, I don't have the energy, you guys are responsible." Xun Mu waved his hand: "If you need anything, just tell me, such as obtaining investigation authority or something, I will try my best to help you apply, and nothing else can help."
It's not that you don't know, at the end of the year, there are a bunch of reports to be made, there are endless meetings to attend, this year's crime rate and crime solving rate have to be counted, and there are all kinds of special task forces, strike hard groups...... Ah, hama, busy exploding.
Lao Su, hurry up and solve this case for me, come and help me. β
"Okay." The corners of Su Ping's mouth opened and said, "Solve it as soon as possible, and go over to help you." Okay, you're tired all day, so don't be here and go get some rest. β
Xun Mu rolled his eyes again and waved his hand: "Come on, don't bother you, you continue, I'll go back to the office to sort out the report, I don't know if they sent me a ......"
With that, he walked out of the conference room.
"Now let's set up the task." Seeing Xun Mu leave, a smile appeared on Su Ping's face, and then he immediately retracted, and said with a serious face: "Song, Xiao Qi, you are responsible for tracking down this dagger, but don't startle the snake for the time being, start from the source."
Didn't you find a merchant who sold the dagger? Ask him if he has kept a record of this, whether he has sent goods to Yuqiao, where he sent them, and after narrowing down the scope of the investigation step by step, and determining who the dagger is, then decide whether to go directly to the door, or continue to touch the periphery. β
"Okay." Brother Song nodded lightly and said, "I'll contact the store first." β
"Hmm."
