"I'm also speculating, I can't guarantee it, the basis of the speculation is also based on the clues speculated by the police at present, just now the Cao team raised a question, if it is a love killing, then how did the victim and the murderer know each other? I think they should have met in the girl's location, and if the victim and the murderer met in Luojia Village, it is impossible for the villagers not to have seen her. ”

After listening to this, everyone nodded, it is true, but is there any direct connection between this and finding the location of the victim?

Everyone suppressed the doubts in their hearts and continued to listen patiently.

"My method should be considered a stupid method, since it is suspected that the murderer may be a local, then we can investigate 14 years ago, who went out to work in the young and middle-aged people, during the period of the victim's death, whether they returned to the village, if so, then he has the time to commit the crime, and then extrapolated the location where he worked, then the victim may have known the murderer in this place."

Syllable~

Hearing Li Xiang's method, Cao Gang slapped the table violently, and suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment: "This method is good." ”

All this reasoning is based on the fact that the murderer is a local, and if from the beginning, they speculate that the murderer is not a local, then all the investigations are in the wrong direction.

But at present, until there are the latest clues, it can only be carried out in this direction of investigation.

Cao Gang was woken up by Li Xiang's words, and immediately said to Mao Ji: "You and Li Xiang go to Luojia Village again, after the incident, the Luoyang Police Station also conducted a survey of the whole village, among which the key investigation group is the school-age migrant workers, their director Jiang Zuofu, also participated in the investigation of this case back then, and is also familiar with the case, you go to him to assist you in the investigation." ”

"Yes."

"Guided Su, please be responsible for the comparison of the victim's single parents, and we will screen them one by one if we can compare as many clues as we can."

"Yes."

When the meeting was over, everyone went down to prepare.

Mao Ji called Jiang Zuofu, the director of the Luoyang Police Station, and explained his intentions.

Jiang Zuofu heard that the criminal investigation team had restarted the unsolved case 14 years ago, and instantly felt like a world away, the villagers of the Luo family were simple, and homicides rarely occurred.

"Let's go, I've already docked with Jiang Suo, let's go now."

Mao Ji drove and took Li Xiang all the way to the Luoyang Police Station, where they were going to start and sort out the specific direction of the investigation.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at the Luoyang police station and met Jiang in the office.

"Hello Jiang Suo, I'm here to trouble you again this year, this is Li Xiang."

"I know, at the commendation conference, I was deeply impressed by him, he was transferred to the criminal investigation team so quickly, and he was really young and promising."

Jiang Zuofu met Li Xiang at last month's commendation performance, he won several medals alone, and also spoke on behalf of the auxiliary police, if you want people not to pay attention to it, but at that time he was still an auxiliary policeman, and today, the clothes of the third-level superintendent are all worn on his body, which improves the speed, absolutely.

He did not doubt the truth of this matter, after all, no one on the public security front dared to make this falsehood, and his unit was still a criminal investigation team.

"Jiang Suo, I'm sorry for you."

"It's not troublesome, this case hasn't been solved for a day, and our hearts can't be settled for a day."

The Luoyang Reservoir case is not only restarted this year, but it will be investigated every year, so the people who really handled this case, even if 14 years have passed, can still remember the details of this case.

"We came this time, but also changed our thinking, before everyone thought that this case, as long as the source of the corpse is confirmed, then there is a 90% chance to solve the case, so everyone put the focus of the work on the confirmation of the source of the corpse, but so far, the comparison of DNA, has not been compared, so we came this time to investigate all the migrant workers 14 years ago."

"Fourteen years ago, a male migrant worker? Back then, we had a survey of the whole village, and we also investigated this kind of migrant workers, but there were no new clues, and we broke this line. ”

Jiang Zuofu participated in the visit that year, and during that time, they walked around the village all day long, relying on two legs to visit all the households, but in the end they did not find any valuable clues, which made them a little discouraged.

"This time, the main thing is to check where they went out to work, and after the crime, whether there is any abnormal situation in them, and it is best to mark those who have criminal records."

People who can commit homicide, they are all people who destroy human nature, they despise the law, they have no sense of reverence, such a person, the chance of committing another crime is relatively high, so he wants to start with people with criminal records.

"Okay, we have all the records of the year, so I'll arrange for someone to take out those materials and sift them out."

Soon, Director Jiang called Luo Rongbing, a policeman who was familiar with the situation of the Luojia villagers, to bring materials and assist Li Xiang in their investigation.

Luo Rongbing, 33 years old this year, he himself is from Luojia Village, when this case occurred, he was still in school, and later joined the public security, learned that the case was still unsolved, and he also took the initiative to ask to participate in the investigation of this case, and he had a relatively good say in the situation in his village.

After receiving the task of the director, Luo Rongbing immediately took out all the information and records of the people who went out to work that year according to the requirements.

"All the information is here, there were a total of 486 migrant workers in Luojia Village and several surrounding villages, most of whom were working around Jinghai City, and a few people ran farther, from all over the world, to find the murderer from so many people, it is not easy."

"Then how many people are there in here, and they have a criminal record?"

"Well, I didn't count this, I'll take a look at it now."

All those who have been released from prison will report to the police station in the jurisdiction when they return to their hometowns, and the police will often call these people with criminal records to care about their dynamics, on the one hand, they are concerned about whether they can integrate well into society and become new people, and on the other hand, they are also monitoring them, so as not to become habitual offenders and violate the law again.

Luo Rongbing had some people in charge of those who had been released after completing their sentences, and he took his list and compared it from it, and found that there were really many people whose names overlapped.

"I took a look, and there were 12 people who met the requirements."

Li Xiang was overjoyed when he heard this, and through the conditional screening, the number of people was suddenly reduced to 12, and the difficulty of the investigation was instantly reduced a lot.

"Brother Mao, there is really you, such a screening, we only need to investigate 12 people."

"But the murderer is not necessarily among these 12 people, if the murderer does not continue to commit crimes, then we directly rule out the correct answer."

Li Xiang nodded: "That's true, but even if you directly investigate the location of these 486 people who went out to work, it will be much smaller than the workload of the national exclusion." ”

"You're right, take it back and try it first."

Mao Ji nodded, and then said to Luo Rongbing: "I took the list of these 486 people and their work locations first, thank you for your cooperation." ”

"Where is it, if the case can be solved, it is equivalent to removing the stone that pressed on our Luoyang police station, we should thank you."

"You're welcome, let's talk to Jiang, and we'll go back to the bureau first."

After saying hello to Director Jiang, the two immediately returned to the city bureau with all the materials.

Next, they classify and count these people, arrange the places where these people are concentrated to work according to the weight ratio, and then enter the system according to the ranking, and compare the missing people in these places with single parents.

These 12 people are scattered in five places, and most of them are concentrated in Huaibei, Liangxi and Jinling, so the victims focus on these places to start the comparison.

At the same time, it also applied to the public security in these places for assistance in the investigation and notification to investigate the information on missing persons who met the characteristics of the victims 14 years ago.

This work was extremely cumbersome, and it took the entire Criminal Investigation Squadron No. 1 a week to sort out all the information, and finally 35 missing cases met the conditions.

By comparing the DNA data of the single parents in these 35 disappearances, they finally found the victim's mother.

"Found it!"

Chu Xiulan, a native of Shun'an, thirteen years ago, she came to Liangxi from Shun'an to look for her daughter Liujie, and after a long time of fruitless searching, she reported the case in the local Liangxi, saying that her daughter was missing.

The hard work of the criminal investigation team for a week, at this moment, feels like it is worth it.

Cao Jun was also shocked, and after fourteen years of unsolved cases, he finally had clues, and he immediately said to Mao Ji: "You and Li Xiang set off immediately, go to Shun'an, take the portrait of the deceased, and let the family confirm it." ”

"Yes."

Li Xiang was also very excited, the identity of the victim was finally confirmed, so is it far from catching the murderer?

Zhou Yan ordered them to be on the high-speed train tomorrow, and they had to go on a business trip tomorrow, and the briquettes at home were once again unattended, so Li Xiang had to call Sun Zhidong.

"What? Are you on a business trip? What have you been up to lately? ”

"It's not to solve the case, or on the way to solve the case, I've been investigating an old case recently, and I have some clues, so I'm going to go on a business trip to take a look."

"Your criminal policeman's life is too colorful, it's not like me, I don't have anything to do every day, I can only play games to relieve my boredom."

Hearing Li Xiang's words, Sun Zhidong was a little envious, although he usually hangs his son, but he is also eager to solve the case, otherwise, he would not have listened to Li Xiang's words that time, and went to Jinling with him without saying a word.

Especially after the incident, he also obtained a second-class merit, and because of it, he became a regular, which gave him a taste of the sweetness of solving the case.

I also had the idea of becoming a criminal policeman.

"That's not good? Playing games, talking about love, I don't know how many people to envy, who think of me, busy like a dog every day, working overtime every day, coming home full of tasks that I didn't finish today, and doing those things tomorrow, but it's worth it. ”

Thinking of the fourteen-year unsolved case, there was finally a major breakthrough, and his hard work is nothing.

"Don't talk about it, during the time I'm not at home, you can help me feed the briquettes, anyway, you have the key to my house."

"Okay."

After settling the briquettes, early the next morning, he and Mao Ji got on the high-speed train to Shun'an.

There was no direct high-speed train, and after a stop, it took 11 hours to arrive in Thuan An at 10 p.m.

"I'm too tired, let's open a room and rest for a while, and we'll make an appointment to go to Chu Xiulan's house tomorrow."

So the two found a hotel next to the high-speed rail station and slept down.

The next day, after waking up in the morning, Li Xiang dialed Chu Xiulan's phone and made an appointment with her at home, and the two were ready to leave for her house.

After Chu Xiulan received a call from the police, she always felt empty in her heart, her daughter had been missing for more than ten years, although she had imagined countless times in her heart that her daughter might have passed away.

But there is no corpse to be seen, she still holds a 1 in 10,000 chance that her daughter is still alive, but she doesn't recognize her as a mother.

But after receiving a call from the police, saying that with the news of her daughter, she may have been killed, and she was immediately overwhelmed with grief, and the only hope in her heart was shattered.

"Hello, we are from the Jinghai City Public Security Bureau, we called, is this photo your daughter Liu Jie?"

Li Xiang and the others found Chu Xiulan's house and handed over the portrait photos of the victims, who were specially drawn by portrait restoration experts from the provincial department at that time.

The moment Chu Xiulan saw the photo, her tears couldn't stop flowing down anymore: "This is my daughter, don't you want a mother?" Why are you so disobedient? ”

"Please mourn."

Listening to Chu Xiulan's cry, Li Xiang felt extremely uncomfortable, and his heart always felt a little blocked.

And Mao Ji was used to seeing such a scene, and while comforting Chu Xiulan, he asked, "When did she go to Liangxi?" And what does it do? ”

"She dropped out of school in 2005 because of bad grades in Liangxi, want to make money early, Liangxi is a big city, it is easy to make money, she first did an apprenticeship in a barber shop to learn beauty and beauty, after three years of study, she said that she did not make money, and went to the beauty salon again. She is also a big man, and when she is old enough to get married, I want her to come back to marry, but she is unwilling, and said that she talked about a divorce, which I agree, and insisted that she come back, for this matter, we quarreled several times, but still can't change her mind. ”

"Beauty salon? Do you know what the beauty salon she works in is called? And what is the name of her boyfriend? ”

Hearing Chu Xiulan's story, Li Xiang and the others suddenly felt that Liu Jie's boyfriend was suspected of committing a major crime.

"I just don't know, I found it when I knew it, I went to Liangxi to find my daughter that year, all the beauty salons were all over, and there was no news of her, I didn't expect this girl, even the work lied to me, because I objected to her being with that man, and she didn't tell me more about her boyfriend's situation, I seem to have heard her say once, her boyfriend, is the owner of this beauty salon."
