"The police in the whole city are moving?" Zhao Qiming didn't understand what Chen Yi meant, "What does Team Leader Chen mean?" ”

Chen Yi spoke: "According to the direction we judged, this case is related to the antique tomb, including the recent murder of Cao Yuning. ”

"Well, we're going to save time and focus on the connection between the six people."

"It's not a relative, there's no mutual friend, how do you know each other?"

Hearing this, Zhao Qiming groaned: "This point is still a question, Team Leader Chen mentioned the organizers before, is it possible that one of them organized the rest?" ”

"This person knows the other five people, but the five people don't know each other, so it's normal to not be able to find contact."

Chen Yi chuckled, glanced at Zhao Qiming appreciatively, nodded and said, "That's right, it's very likely, then how did he know the five people?" ”

"If it's a friend, it shouldn't be impossible to find it at all, I'm more inclined to nod my head and have a few faces."

Following Chen Yi's train of thought, Zhao Qiming had already understood what the other party wanted to say, and said, "Antique trading market? ”

Chen Yi didn't affirm whether there was a denial, and instead asked, "How many antique markets are there in Jiangcheng?" ”

"When I talked to Captain Kong before, he inadvertently mentioned that Jiangcheng is an ancient city, since it is an ancient city, there must be a lot of good things buried underground, and there should be a lot of antique markets, right?"

Zhao Qiming said: "I really don't know how much, I haven't paid much attention to it, but there must be." ”

"I'll have someone look it up?"

Chen Yi: "I think it's better to hand this matter over to He Deputy Branch, what do you say?" The time has come to use your abilities. ”

Seeing Chen Yi mention himself, Shi Xin smiled and said: "The Internet is a gathering place for information, especially in the past few years, when the network monitoring was not very strict, many netizens did not choose to say anything and dared to say anything. ”

"Although some posts have been deleted, the entrance still exists, and I can look for it."

"Team Leader Chen wants to visit comprehensively, as long as these six people have been to places related to antiques, then the common ground can be confirmed."

Chen Yi: "That's right. ”

Zhao Qiming hesitated: "But...... After so many years, how to visit? Even if you hold a photo, no one will necessarily recognize it, right? ”

Chen Yidao: "You don't necessarily recognize it, it doesn't mean that you can't recognize it, you always have to give it a try, and it's good to recognize one or two of them." ”

"If you want to continue to check in this direction, you must confirm the clues, our previous inference is only an auxiliary reference, although the probability is relatively large, but there is no 100% certainty, and the possibility of making a mistake cannot be ruled out."

"This matter, we must start an investigation within two days, and send out all the police officers who can be dispatched, the location is the more well-known antique market in Jiangcheng, and the more hidden trading market found out by He Deputy Branch."

"As for the black market involving illegal crimes, let's let it go first, we don't care, judging from the situation of Sun Jianli and Yao Jing, they only stay at the level of entry and hobbies, and they have not yet reached the level of being able to contact the black market."

The black market is generally genuine, because the source is not right, which is what Chen Yi thinks.

Zhao Qiming nodded solemnly: "Okay, I know, I will cooperate well with Deputy He in the next two days and carry out the visit in the shortest possible time." ”

Chen Yi: "Hmm. ”

……

That night, Chen Yi returned to the accommodation arranged by the city bureau, which was not a luxurious hotel, but at least the environment was clean.

It's been a busy few days, and he hasn't had time to reply to Fang Shuyu's occasional messages.

Relieved for the time being tonight, he took out his phone and dialed it.

The call was answered quickly.

"Hello? Chen Yi. ”

Fang Shuyu's voice sounded, and she could hear from her tone that she was still quite surprised.

Since the two confirmed their relationship, this is Chen Yi's first business trip to other places, and it is also the first time Fang Shuyu has experienced a short-term long-distance relationship, and it doesn't feel very good anyway.

Chen Yi smiled: "Shuyu, do you miss me?" ”

Fang Shuyu: "Of course I want to." ”

Chen Yi: "I think a lot. ”

Fang Shuyu: "Good ......"

She wanted to say that she wanted to think about it, but she felt that the flesh was very numb, and she was embarrassed to say it.

"Why are you so idle, you don't have to investigate the case." She changed her tune.

Chen Yi: "The case is progressing steadily, so I can take a break tonight." ”

Fang Shuyu: "The body is resting, but the brain is not idle, right?" ”

She understands Chen Yi, before the case is over, it is impossible for Chen Yi's thinking to stop, even if he is talking to herself on the phone at the moment, maybe he is still thinking about how to investigate the case after the case.

Chen Yi: "You still know me, and you really can't be idle." ”

"Shuyu, this case is very difficult, and I underestimated it a little before I came."

It was the first time Fang Shuyu had heard Chen Yi say this, so he might only say this to himself.

As the leader of the task force, he must maintain self-confidence in front of the Jiangcheng police, but only he knows what the actual situation is.

At this moment, Fang Shuyu was inexplicably a little distressed, and comforted: "It's okay, just do your best, isn't there a saying that people make things happen in the sky?" ”

"Even if you can't solve the case, you don't have to resign."

Chen Yi wondered: "How do you know?" What did Uncle Fang say to you? ”

Fang Shuyu: "Hmm. ”

Chen Yi smiled: "I made a military order in front of the captain of the Quandongzhou detachment, I can't solve the case, maybe the criminal police can still do it, but this captain definitely can't do it, even if it's Uncle Fang, you can't show favoritism." ”

Fang Shuyu was silent for a while, and said, "Okay, it doesn't matter, if it's not right, it's not right." ”

Chen Yi: "What you said, I just mentioned that the case is very difficult, and it doesn't mean that it can't be solved. ”

Fang Shuyu scolded with a smile: "Then you say it all, is it sick?" ”

"By the way, has the case progressed a lot these days? Where does the difficulty come from? ”

Chen Yi: "You can listen to what I said to you tonight, and don't spread it nonsense." ”

Fang Shuyu: "Nonsense, this is a confidential case, I will forget it after tonight." ”

She could hear that Chen Yi wanted to talk to someone, but this person couldn't be Zhuo Yun and Qin Fei, nor could it be Zhao Qiming from Jiangcheng.

It seems that Chen Yi's inference is ahead of the current investigation process, but there are many guesses, and it is easy to mislead the direction when he talks to others, so he can only be clear for the time being.

And he is also a policeman, his father is Fang Songping, and he is Chen Yi's girlfriend, so it doesn't matter if it's confidential or not.

Chen Yi: "Do you know what the case is about?" ”

Fang Shuyu: "I know, when I went home, my dad told me, didn't six die?" And the previous five have no connection, and the modus operandi is rather strange. ”

Chen Yi snorted: "Judging from the clues we have now, I think this is a revenge murder case with a long time span. ”

Fang Shuyu: "Revenge? Because of what? ”

Chen Yi: "Twenty-five years ago, at least seven people went to the grave, and one of them died in the tomb, and it is very likely that he killed him. ”

"The avenger is the relative of the person who died in the tomb, and the probability of descendants is the highest."

Fang Shuyu was surprised: "Twenty-five years? Down to the grave? So why did you wait ten years to do it? ”

Chen Yi: "As I just said, the probability of offspring is the highest, so he should be doing two things in the next ten years." ”

"First things first, check people."

"The second thing, grow up."

Fang Shuyu: "Long ...... Grow up?! You mean that when the grave happened, the murderer was still a child. ”

Chen Yi: "Well, that's right, judging from the time when he had the ability to commit crimes, the murderer should have been a teenager at that time, and after joining the work, he began to take revenge. ”

"Because medical anesthetics are hard to come by, he needs an environment close to the water."

Fang Shuyu thought for a while: "Twenty-something...... Then he'd have to be forty now. ”

Chen Yi: "Yes, about forty. ”

"The difficulty I said comes from here, the murderer is highly related to this case, has intelligence advantages, and is a very smart person, it will take more than fifteen years for him to find out all the participants, and I only have two months."

"Of course, I also have the advantage that I can use all police resources, and there will be no secrets in front of me."

"It takes a little bit of luck to find out in two months."

Fang Shuyu: "Understood, are you sure what you just said?" ”

Chen Yi: "After all, it's an inference, I don't know yet, the police force of the whole Jiangcheng has been arranged to investigate, hoping to find visible common ground." ”

"If you find it, then lock the direction and continue to check."

"If I can't find it, I have to think about whether I was wrong."

"Also, I want to meet Tao Shangli in the process."

Fang Shuyu was puzzled: "Who is Tao Shangli?" ”

Chen Yi smiled: "You forgot, when we were shopping before, we encountered a drunk driving accident, and it was an old man who was hit, and I was handcuffed." ”

Fang Shuyu: "Oh, I remember, he is the grandson of the old man and an archaeologist. ”

"It's a shame that you can think of him, if you have a professional to help, you will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort."

Her reaction was not as fast as Chen Yi's, and the other party really made full use of all the resources she could.

Chen Yi: "That's right, I'll call him later to see if it's in Jiangcheng and if he's free." ”

Fang Shuyu snorted and said, "Listening to your description, this case doesn't seem to be very complicated on the whole, mainly because it is difficult to investigate. ”

Hearing this, Chen Yi was slightly silent and said, "No, it may be a little more complicated." ”

Fang Shuyu: "Huh? What do you mean? ”

Chen Yi: "If it's really a tomb robbery, then what happened between these people is not just as simple as seeing money. ”

"After visiting and investigating, I suspect that some of them got fakes, which shows that several people have their own ghosts, and they don't know what the hell is going on in the middle."

"It's hard to figure out all the truth, there are only two ways."

"Either find a way to investigate in-depth and deduce through new clues, or ask the murderer directly after catching him, the murderer is the last to see the deceased, and I think he should ask about the matter back then."

Fang Shuyu: "Both of these methods are really difficult. ”

Chen Yi said with a smile: "It's okay, the case is gradually advancing, and there is no dead end, if you want to find out the truth, you can still do it, but the time is shorter." ”

"So your dad ...... It's a bit of a trick, and I didn't sit still, and I might have waited a little longer for three months or four months. ”

"But it's better to keep the time shorter, now it is inferred that there are at least seven people, and it is not ruled out that there are eight people and nine people."

"Not being able to catch the murderer is secondary, and then dying is a big deal."

Fang Shuyu: "My dad cheats people? Be careful I tell him. ”

Chen Yi: "Don't make trouble, I was wrong. ”

"Okay, I won't tell you, I'll call Tao Shangli now and see if I can make an appointment to meet."

Fang Shuyu: "Okay, you pay attention to your body and eat on time." ”

Chen Yi: "Hmm. ”

The phone hung up, he put the phone down, picked up the cigarette case on the table, pulled out one and lit it.

After chatting with Fang Shuyu for a while, he felt that his tense brain was a little soothed, he really wanted to find someone to talk to, and combine work and rest.

Fang Shuyu is the most suitable, and you can still hear encouragement and comfort.

Fortunately, Fang Shuyu is also a policeman, otherwise he would not even have a heart-to-heart person to talk to when dealing with serious cases all day long.

After smoking for a while, Chen Yi took out his mobile phone, opened the address book to find Tao Shangli's name, and then dialed.

The phone rang for a long time, and at the last moment when Chen Yi thought that no one answered, it was connected.

"Hello? Officer Chen? ”

Tao Shangli's tone was obviously surprised, obviously he didn't expect Chen Yi to suddenly take the initiative to call him.

Chen Yi smiled: "Mr. Tao, hello." ”

Tao Shangli: "Just call me Shang Li, Officer Chen doesn't have to be so polite." ”

Chen Yi: "Okay, Shang Li, have you been in Jiangcheng recently?" ”

Tao Shangli: "Yes, what's wrong?" ”

Chen Yi: "Are you busy?" ”

Tao Shangli: "It's okay, if Officer Chen asks me for help with something, even if he says, I'm free." ”

"Thank you so much for my grandmother's incident last time, punishing the person who deserves to be punished, and giving us a sigh of relief."

Chen Yi: "I didn't do anything, I just passed by." ”

"Shang Li, about archaeology, I want to ask you for experience, is it convenient for you to see it?"

Tao Shangli: "Archaeology? Why did Officer Chen suddenly become interested in archaeology? ”

Chen Yi did not hide it: "There is a case, which may involve this aspect." ”

Tao Shangli: "Case? ”

After he was silent for a while, his voice sounded: "It's not archaeology, it's tomb robbing, right?" ”

It is easy to guess that everything related to the police is illegal and criminal, and archaeology corresponds to tomb robbery.

Chen Yi: "Clever, that's right. ”

Tao Shangli: "Are you in Jiangcheng?" ”

Chen Yi: "Yes. ”

Tao Shangli: "The case is also in Jiangcheng? ”

Chen Yi: "Hmm. ”

Tao Shangli was a little strange why the other party came to Jiangcheng to investigate the case, but he didn't ask much, and said: "Although Jiangcheng is an ancient city, the ancient tombs that should have been found over the years have basically been found, and the tomb robbers in the past are now very rare, where was this stolen?" I didn't get any news. ”

As an archaeologist, this is a question he must ask.

All the destroyed tombs, after they are discovered, require archaeologists to quickly carry out rescue excavations.

If it really involves tomb robbing, his job will come, but he has not received any work arrangements from the cultural department recently, and there has been no advance notice.

Chen Yi explained: "It's early, very early. ”

Tao Shangli: "Oh, that's it, you wait for me to see the time......"

"Then ...... Is it okay the day after tomorrow? At two o'clock in the afternoon the day after tomorrow, you give me the address and I will go to you. ”

Chen Yi: "Yes, if it's not very convenient for you there, I can send a letter of inquiry." ”

The letter is addressed to all units, not just the police.

Tao Shangli smiled: "Don't be so troublesome, it's convenient for me, just give me the address directly when the time comes." ”

Chen Yi: "Okay, then thank you." ”

Tao Shangli: "Officer Chen doesn't have to be polite. ”

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yi didn't think much about the case, and went to bed after simply washing up.

Time passed a day.

Jiangcheng City Bureau.

At this moment, the high-definition portraits of the five people, including Cao Maojun, have all been distributed to the police stations and sub-bureaus in various jurisdictions.

Under Zhao Qiming's arrangement, under the detailed investigation of the new time, all the open antique markets in the city, including the more private circles, and the trade fairs that require thresholds, have entered the scope of the visit.

It's been a long time, more than ten years have passed, and there may be people who give up this hobby because of the emergency at the tomb.

In this case, the time would go back more than 25 years.

I want to ask, the possibility is actually not very big, but what should be done is to be done, in case it is really found?

It is not even ruled out that the murderer also went through this process back then.

As long as these invisible lines are grasped, they will be closer to solving the case, and if you can ask for clues about the murderer, it will be an unexpected gain.

Tao Shangli's Chen Yi has made an appointment today, and he will meet at a drink shop not far from the Jiangcheng City Bureau at half past two.

The location was recommended by Zhao Qiming, that place is mainly outdoors, leaning on a river, very quiet, no one will disturb and no one will eavesdrop.

In the past two days, Shi Xin also investigated the details of the six people by the way, and dug deep and got a piece of information.

Cao Yuning's father, Cao Maojun, seems to have a certain reputation and status in a relatively small circle.

This circle is the cultural relics appraisal circle.

This information happens to match what I found in Cao Maojun's house before.

At this moment, Chen Yi was thinking about it.

Next to him, Zhao Qiming spoke: "Cao Maojun has a good ability to identify, shouldn't he not know the truth or falsehood?" ”

When visiting Sun Jianli's family two days ago, they speculated that Sun Jianli might have obtained a fake.

Two threads that seem to be in conflict.

Chen Yi touched his chin and said, "Captain Zhao, our thinking must be open and not limited. ”

"If Sun Jianli was angry because he was a fake, then Cao Maojun deceived him, isn't it reasonable."

Zhao Qiming was slightly stunned: "Oh yes, that's right, then this case is complicated again, doesn't it extend a variety of possibilities." ”

"It's possible to kill someone because you were deceived, right?"

On the other side, Shi Xin took his eyes off the computer and looked over: "Captain Zhao said that the murderer was the one who was deceived, thinking that only he was taking a fake, so he let others cheat, and he did this serial murder case in anger." ”

Zhao Qiming: "Yes, what does Team Leader Chen think?" ”

Chen Yi: "It's possible, but it's not big. ”

"Cao Maojun is the one with the ability to identify, there is no reason to catch a person, unless it is simply to look at someone who is not pleasing to the eye."

"Even so, the other party can find out that something is wrong soon after they go out, and then the follow-up trouble will come."

"This incident does not conform to the normal psychological and behavioral logic of people."

Hearing this, several people nodded, it was indeed unlikely.

Chen Yi: "Don't think about it first, let's go, let's meet the professionals." ”
