Chapter 0234: It's Over
"What have you done now?" Ahbone asked.
"We asked the yellow taxi company and the citizens for help, and it worked well, maybe too much." Vincent replied.
"What do you mean?" Ahbourne frowned.
"Within an hour, more than 2,000 calls were received saying that they had seen such people, and hundreds of colleagues also found people similar to the suspects during their patrols. According to the analysis, harassment is not ruled out in these thousands of calls, but a small number of people may actually see such guys. Vincent threw a map of Yarman above his desk.
Ashburn tilted his face and looked at the map carefully.
"According to the analysis, the suspect wandered the streets of Yarman yesterday looking for an opportunity to commit the crime. Today, he has been seen at Confederation Park, Flag Hill Town Park, City Hall, the 501 Future Tower, the Aubrey Museum, the Long Island Hotel, Liberty Island, the Aubrey Low Shuttle Harbor, and the Yarman University Library. Vincent reported solemnly, while Ashburn on the side frowned tightly.
"The most concentrated reports are at Yarman University, where there are more than 800 reports." Vincent drew a circle on the map with a laser pointer.
"What does this mean?" Ashburn felt in his pocket, the cigarette was finished, so he smiled apologetically at Vincent, took a pack of cigarettes from the drawer, and took one out of the drawer, ready to put the cigarette back in the drawer.
"Smoking is bad for your health." Vincent smiled and reminded Ahiburn, his smile was a little stiff, his palms were a little wet, and his eyes were fixed on Ahiborne's hand, which was actually staring at the pack of wicked cigarettes.
"Low tar, actually, fine! This is the last one of the day, and it didn't quit that quickly. Ashburn looked at Vincent warily, "You're not going to be affected, are you?" ”
"Of course not." Vincent's throat was a little uncomfortable, and he coughed lightly twice. "I've been quitting for a long time."
"That's good." Ashburn lit a cigarette and took a deep breath, "What did that mean?" ”
"I've quit, and I won't smoke even if you put a cigarette in my mouth now." Vincent shook his head and said.
"The previous sentence was reported by Yarman University." Ashbourne spat out a smoke ring, which slowly flew towards the opposite wall. The hologram has a strange effect, and it seems that the city is instantly filled in fog.
Vincent sighed secretly, shrugged his shoulders, turned his mind back to the case, and continued: "If these are true, then he must be a superman who can doppelgänger, because he ate dozens of meals at noon today, and appeared in most of Yarman's attractions with dozens of different people, so this is impossible." ”
"Of course not." Ahbourne laughed. He took another puff of cigarette, but this time he didn't spit out the smoke rings, but let the smoke dissipate around his mouth, and said, "But have you ever thought about why so many people wear black coats on such a hot day?" Don't they know that black is more likely to absorb thermal radiation. ”
"I'm sure most people dress up like that after learning from the movies." Vincent grimaced, "That's the power of pop." ”
"Which movie?" Ahbourne didn't know why.
"That's the case with all movies now." Vincent replied calmly.
"Oh?" Ashburn nodded, he also remembered the advertisement on the street some time ago.
"That's what really effective reporting should be." Vincent began to mark Confederation Park on the map. Long Island and Brieland Street.
"What's the use of that?" Ahbone nodded and shook his head.
"If our guess is correct, then he spends the day wandering the streets. Later, he killed two more people, where would he go when that happened? Vincent muttered to himself.
"He must be covered in blood, if it were me, he would at least find a place to change his clothes, take a shower or something." Ashburn said with a smile.
"Well, it's getting closer. But I think he probably didn't have a drop of blood on his body, but he was going to take a shower anyway. It is believed that all murderers will feel that there will be traces on their bodies after committing a crime. Vincent said with a smile.
"Well, yes, that's kind of interesting, go on." Ahbourne puffed out another puff of smoke.
"There are many motels off the highway and it's easy to live there. It's also easy to run, so he'll definitely find a small hotel to stay in. Vincent came to a conclusion and snuck two puffs of secondhand smoke from Ashburn.
"Okay." Ahiburne looked along the highway on the map, biting the tail of the cigarette in his mouth, his thick fingers drawing around the map, bowing his head and saying vaguely, "There are too many small inns on this road. ”
"Fortunately, we still have a TV station, how about letting them help promote it?" Vincent suggested that he squeeze right next to Ashborne, and the rising aroma rushed straight into his nostrils, and nothing was wasted.
"No way, we just said there was such a person at the scene based on a police call. The authenticity of the content of this call is also very low, maybe this is the real culprit who is misleading us, it is already very reluctant to let the taxi company help, and it is impossible for the TV station, which will cause too much trouble. Ashbern sighed and took the cigarette in his hand, and Vincent tilted his head and buried his nose in the smoke.
Ashbourne put the cigarette back in his mouth and smoked it, and Vincent sighed.
On average, one in every 300 people in the Mada Federation can be the victim of a murder, and one murder every seventeen minutes. The city of Yarman kills many people every day, and there are always some people who don't die of natural causes, but the detection rate is less than 60 percent in 10 years.
"What do you estimate the odds of solving this case?" Vincent asked.
It is their habit to ask about the chances of solving a crime, and generally speaking, the first three days of a crime are the easiest stage to solve a crime. So the first three days should be all out and invest as much manpower and resources as possible.
However, the key to not being able to solve a case in a timely manner is that if there are other new cases after three days, manpower and resources must be deployed to deal with other cases.
"If we can find witnesses on the spot, it's 90 percent." Ashburn opened another drawer, took out a cigarette, and lit one.
"Fortunately, only two thugs died in this case." Ashburn and Vincent muttered to themselves at the same time, "There won't be too much pressure on this kind of case, and the media attention won't be too high, otherwise it will be more troublesome." ”
"Alright, let's go back!" Ashburn thought for a moment and looked up to Vincent.
"Okay, I believe the autopsy report will come out the day after tomorrow, and then we can see if those two guys are really so dead. When the time comes, I'll ask a few more informants. Vincent said with a smile. (To be continued.) )
