Chapter 39: Arrest
At noon, there are few people on East Street in Poole County, where many small vendors usually start to set up their stalls in the evening, and now even the cleaners who clean the streets are resting at home.
In the sun, although it is autumn, but the autumn in the south is still very hot, Ji Kun walked on the streets of East Street, holding a map in his hand, sweat had already soaked half of his clothes, the water stains formed a strange shape printed on his back, and sweat kept flowing down his forehead on his head.
Ji Kun looked at the map for a while, looked around for a while, and at this moment, the surrounding environment and the structure on the map were quickly aligned in Ji Kun's brain, and then broken and rebuilt, and then aligned, a virtual map slowly constructed in the depths of his memory became more and more similar to the map in his hand.
Ji Kun took out a pen and drew it on the map, then bit the pen with his mouth, and if he looked closely, he would find that there were several red circles on the map in Ji Kun's hand that Ji Kun drew with a pen, one of the red circles was No. 14 East Street, the victim Jia Yan's rental house, and several circles Ji Kun drew next to the surrounding buildings.
Jia Yan's death made Ji Kun have to pay attention to the man who had stalked Jia Yan on cheap cigarettes, the possibility that he might be the murderer of Jia Yan is too great, and his perverted love is likely to become a murderous motive that he wants to destroy because he can't get it. After thinking about it, it was because of his laxity at that time, and he killed Jia Yan because he didn't investigate to the end, Ji Kun had a sense of self-blame buried in his heart, so he decided to retrace the whereabouts of this stalker, although Ji Kun knew that it would be several times more difficult to investigate now than before, but this matter must be solved, this is a thorn in Ji Kun's heart, and if he doesn't pull it out, it will hurt all the time when he is stuck in his heart.
According to Ji Kun's recollections, the performance of this stalker shows that he knows and is familiar with the environment in this area, otherwise it would not be so difficult to find him, he is very familiar with what position can hide from people, and what position can cross to the intersection in front of him, then he must be someone who lives in this neighborhood. And the scene of the crime, that is, Jia Yan's home, Ji Kun saw it at the time, the door was locked, but it was not locked from the inside, and there was no trace of damage to the door, that is, the murderer entered from the door to the inside and came out from the door. There are three things that can happen:
The first type: The murderer and Jia Yan knew each other, it was Jia Yan who took the initiative to open the door for the murderer, and then the murderer committed murder to Jia Yan inside.
The second type: The murderer has a spare key to Jia Yan's house, he sneaks in first, waits for Jia Yan to go home, and then kills her. This is unlikely to happen, and the landlord has said before that she is the only one with the spare key, unless the landlady is the murderer.
The third type: The murderer ambushed at the stairs at the beginning, waited for Jia Yan to open the door, then stepped forward to subdue her, and then dragged her into the house to tie up, and then killed her. The premise of meeting this condition is that the murderer has been staring at Jia Yan for a long time, and he knows her every move very well, and even knows when Jia Yan will go out and when she will come home, but in this case, the people who are staring at her should also eat and sleep very close to her, especially Jia Yan goes to work in the morning, and there must be a place where she can be observed at any time.
Of these three conditions, Ji Kun personally prefers the third one, so he decided to start the investigation from what may occur in the third situation.
"Here." Ji Kun pointed to a location on the map, a restaurant opposite Jia Yan's house. Jia Yan goes to work at eight o'clock every day and comes back at eleven o'clock in the evening, and her life is single, so one place to monitor her is enough.
Ji Kun walked into the restaurant he designated, his eyes sifted through every detail inside, and soon a few seats by the window attracted Ji Kun's attention.
The window of this restaurant is just facing the road, Ji Kun chose a place he thought had the best view and sat down, looking out of the window in this position, he could perfectly see the staircase of Building 14, which was a perfect location.
Ji Kun tilted his head and looked at the staircase over there, imagining that this stalker should be like this when he monitored Jia Yan's movements every day, his nose suddenly smelled a smell of smoke, and it was very familiar, Ji Kun remembered the cheap cigarette butt he found in the alley when he sent Jia Yan home, it was that smell.
I guessed correctly! Ji Kun was already convinced that this was the place where the stalker stayed every day, and only a person who smoked a cigarette in one place for a long time would leave a smell of smoke in one place that was difficult to dissipate.
At this time, a waiter came over, with a delicate appearance, a male waiter with a height of 1.8 meters, standing in front of Ji Kun with a menu.
"What do you need, sir?"
Ji Kun found out that he had been in this restaurant for a while, and it was indeed a little strange if he didn't order something, and it happened that Ji Kun was also a little hungry, so he looked at the dishes on the menu and asked for a spicy chicken.
When the waiter turned around to hand in the order, Ji Kun stopped him and asked softly:
"Is there a lot of people in my position who like to smoke sitting here?"
The waiter was a little panicked, because he also smelled that there was indeed a smell of smoke here, he thought that Ji Kun hated the smell of smoke, the purpose of this store is that the customer is God, everything is based on serving customers well, and he has been trained like this for a long time, so when Ji Kun did not show his dissatisfaction, the waiter hurriedly apologized:
"I'm sorry, sir, there is indeed a person who likes to sit in this position and smoke before, he has been coming every day for more than a month, which may cause the residual smell of smoke here, we have sprayed air fresheners here, and the smoke smell has not been completely removed, which has caused you inconvenience, if you don't like it, I can help you change to the position inside."
"No, it's not that I hate the smell of smoke, I just want to ask if that person keeps staring out the window every time, and stays here for a long time at a time." Ji Kun didn't expect the waiter to misunderstand what he meant, so he immediately expressed it clearly.
"yes, how do you know this, he keeps looking out the window every time he comes, he doesn't know what he's looking at, and he stays for more than half an hour, and he leaves in a special hurry every time." The waiter recalled.
"And do you remember what he looked like?"
"That person, it doesn't look like he's very old, about thirty, with a Chinese face, thick eyebrows, and likes to wear black clothes, huh? I remember this, he hadn't been here for dinner in a while. ”
"If he comes back, can you contact me? Here's my phone. Ji Kun wrote the phone number on a napkin and gave it to the waiter.
"No problem." The waiter readily agreed.
"Thank you." Ji Kun thanked him with a polite smile.
The waiter also turned around and left, he didn't think much about it, this kind of customer who often has nothing to talk to them can encounter a lot every day, as for the topic, they will say whatever they want, which is also the norm in the service industry.
Ji Kun already knew that this was the position that the stalker often did, so what clues should he leave after staying here for so long.
Ji Kun bent down to look at the side of the chair and the corner of the table, but it was very clean underneath, probably because the restaurant was cleaned every day, Ji Kun didn't find anything special.
However, when Ji Kun was about to move the chair, his hand was suddenly scratched, Ji Kun bent down to look at the place where the hand was scratched, and found that there was a white thing sandwiched between the chairs, Ji Kun used his fingernails to buckle the "white object" out, and found that it was a note, Ji Kun slowly opened it, and found the previous pass.
There was no other explanation on the note, and he didn't know where the pass was, Ji Kun couldn't figure it out and didn't think much about it, so he put the note away. At this time, the food came up, Ji Kun decided to finish eating first, and then find someone to check this note, where it went.
Ji Kun is a person who likes spicy food very much, and the refreshing spicy chicken made Ji Kun solve it quickly.
Ji Kun walked out of the restaurant after eating and found that there were two police cars driving quickly past him, Ji Kun just saw that the person in the car was Peng Yingsi from this angle, Ji Kun was still wondering where she was going in a hurry, but he didn't expect the police to stop in a residential building not far away. Ji Kun hurriedly followed, but when he got there, Peng Yingsi had already gotten out of the car, only to see Peng Yingsi go up to the building resolutely, Ji Kun also found that Peng Yingsi was carrying a gun, followed by Lao Ma Xiaoliu and two people, all three of them were wearing plain clothes, and a carload of people came down in uniforms, and the clothes were printed with a co-signing, which should be Peng Yingsi invited temporary workers to assist the police. Ji Kun suddenly wondered who Peng Yingsi was going to arrest, why he even used the assistant police, and he was equipped with a gun.
Ji Kun then quietly stuck to the side of the police car after they went upstairs.
In the end, Wang Jibao, who came out of the car leisurely, happened to collide with Ji Kun.
"Oh, Brother Ji, it's such a coincidence, I met it again." Wang Jibao's playful greetings.
"Who are you arresting?" Ji Kun also found this fat man, and seeing that he and Peng Yingsi came together, he must have known the truth, and hurriedly asked him.
"Suspect!"
"Suspects?"
Peng Yingsi took the lead to the fourth floor first, she directly commanded, and asked the old horse to pretend to knock on the door of the property, and there was no movement inside for a long time, Peng Yingsi felt that something was wrong, and the suspect may have recognized the identity of the old horse who came out of the property from the cat's eye. Peng Yingsi signaled and decided to break in.
"Bang!"
The sturdy old horse kicked the door open, and the rest of the people swarmed in, but it was unusually quiet inside, but the bedroom door was closed.
No one?
Peng Yingsi noticed the bedroom, and motioned for people to approach the bedroom with her eyes, and kept the door to guard to prevent the suspect from escaping. said that it was too late, it was fast, just when the rest of the people just entered the bedroom, the door in the bathroom suddenly opened, and a person rushed out of it, and quickly came to the door where Peng Yingsi was, the speed was very fast, Peng Yingsi did not react immediately, and was knocked open all of a sudden, and the person escaped from the door.
However, Peng Yingsi was not a vegetarian in the police academy for four years, and she chased her out directly with strong physical fitness, and the person just now was limping when he ran, his legs and feet were obviously inconvenient, although the explosiveness was good, but the endurance was not good, and he was soon caught up by Peng Yingsi and pressed to the ground, and several people who found the situation in the bedroom also quickly supported him and handcuffed this person.
Soon, Ji Kun saw the true face of this suspect, a not tall man, about thirty years old, with a Chinese face, two beards on his mouth, thick eyebrows, wearing a black dress, and the most exaggerated thing is that his left foot is tied with a thick white bandage.
The image of this person suddenly reminded Ji Kun, isn't this what the waiter said just now? It can't be such a coincidence.
Peng Yingsi also happened to see Ji Kun when she came out.
However, Ji Kun didn't say hello, his attention was already completely attracted by this so-called suspect, because he smelled the familiar smell of smoke. Ji Kun examined this person and found that his image was 80% consistent with the image of the murderer of Jia Yan that he profiled.
"This person is a worker at the construction site you provided me with, and he didn't go to work a week ago, so he has plenty of time to commit crimes." Peng Yingsi asked Lao Ma to escort the man into the police car first, then took out a stack of photos and a mobile phone and continued, "This is a photo of Jia Yan secretly taken by him, and the mobile phone should be Jia Yan's mobile phone, but there is no battery." “
"Have you found the murder weapon and Jia Yan's head?" Ji Kun took those photos and looked at them, and sure enough, they were all candid angles.
Peng Yingsi shook her head: "I haven't found it yet, and I won't know until I go back to the police station to interrogate him." “
Didn't find it? This made Ji Kun frown a little, it was not normal. In Ji Kun's speculation, since the murderer has Jia Yan's head, it must have some significance, and there have been cases in the history of crime where a perverted murderer used the head of the deceased as a collector's item, which is a manifestation of the murderer's use to satisfy his perverted psychological needs. The fact that the head and murder weapon were not found is rather strange.
"Let's go back to the police station first, do you want to go together?" Peng Yingsi asked Ji Kun and opened the car door on the side.
Ji Kun walked to the side of the car and found that Peng Yingsi's face was still sweaty, which should have been caused by the violent running when he was arresting people just now, and Ji Kun didn't know where to take out a bottle of Cestbon mineral water, twisted the bottle cap and handed it to Peng Yingsi.
"Take a drink."
Peng Yingsi's heart warmed, smiled, did not refuse, took it and took a sip.
After that, the two got into the car and drove back to the Yu City Police Station.
