The man was pulled up in front of everyone, and his expression immediately became somewhat tense.

This is normal!

Giving a report in front of dozens of people can make even a seasoned and composed political worker nervous to some extent.

People are prone to herd mentality.

Being singled out and singled out inevitably leads to this kind of situation.

Guan Feng looked at the other person, seemingly intending to make them nervous and make them make a mistake in their haste, and asked, "Do you know why we called you out alone?"

The man looked even more nervous, swallowed hard, stared at Guan Feng, then looked at the others, and shook his head, saying, "I...I don't know."

Guan Feng asked, "Have you heard about the murder that happened in the bathroom?"

The man nodded and said, "I've heard! But... but I didn't do it, I really didn't!"

Guan Feng then reminded him, "Murder doesn't necessarily involve arson. Sometimes the person who hands you the torch is also an accomplice, don't you think?"

The man paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "You're right, but... but I really didn't hand you a torch?"

Guan Feng pointed to the forty-third figure in the image and asked, "Then let me ask you, do you recognize this person?"

The man glanced at the figure, his expression shifting.

After a brief silence, the man wanted to speak.

Guan Feng warned, "Now that body cameras are all on, if you lie, you are deliberately misleading our police investigation and will bear legal responsibility."

The man immediately said, "I'll confess everything! I'll confess everything! I know him, he's Old Yang from the third floor."

Guan Feng asked, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

The man sighed and said, "I... I was thinking it was better to avoid trouble. Really, I didn't mean to cover it up for him. I was just afraid of causing even bigger problems later, so I thought maybe we should just let it go. I really didn't mean it, really!"

Guan Feng nodded and reminded him, "I believe in you, and I'm giving you one last chance! Wang Xun, Xiang Dong, you two take him to find this old Yang."

"good!"

The two nodded.

She left with the man.

Five minutes later.

The three of them led a figure downstairs.

Guan Feng looked over and saw Old Yang in the picture.

Guan Feng asked, "Are you Old Yang? The one who came upstairs to use the restroom last night?"

Old Yang looked somewhat awkward as he said, "Yes."

Guan Feng asked, "You live on the third floor, why don't you come to the second floor to use the toilet?"

Old Yang explained, "I originally planned to come here to hang out with someone, but after I used the restroom, the mood cooled down, so I went back to rest."

Guan Feng recalled the scene in the surveillance footage and realized that there was indeed a pause.

Guan Feng reminded them, "Then let's line up first and have our fingerprints recorded later."

Old Yang said, "Okay."

This little incident made everyone realize that the situation was unusual. As required by the police, they lined up in four rows and recorded their fingerprints on the fingerprint scanner in front of them.

Half an hour later.

All related recording work has been completed.

Looking at the series of data, Guan Feng asked, "Captain Chen, how long will the comparison take?"

Chen Xuewen said, "The comparison is quick; results can be obtained in just a few minutes."

Guan Feng nodded.

Li Xiangdong was instructed to give everyone a bottle of water and to patiently wait for the final result.

Five minutes later.

The computer has automatically completed the background recognition.

After matching, the half fingerprint did not match any of the fingerprints of the forty-three people present.

"No matches at all?"

Upon seeing the result, Chen Xuewen frowned and expressed his doubts. However, machines do not lie, especially when it comes to such procedural operations, and the police assisted throughout the recording process.

He frowned and handed the results to Guan Feng, his expression somewhat serious. "Captain Guan, the results are not quite right. No one fits the description."

Guan Feng was also taken aback upon hearing this, and subconsciously looked at the results, asking, "No one fits?"

Chen Xuewen handed over the report.

Guan Feng took it, glanced at it, and frowned, saying, "It really is! Could it be that someone else damaged the handle? But the timing doesn't match up."

He paused for a moment, then looked at Wang Xun and said, "Let everyone go back first."

Wang Xun said, "Okay." He then told everyone to go back to their dormitories to rest.

As the crowd gradually dispersed, Guan Feng relayed the news from earlier, saying, "Team Leader Chen has just checked, and no one fits the criteria. What other possibilities do you think there are?"

Wang Xun said, "Could it be an error?"

Guan Feng shook his head and said, "Machines can't have errors. I checked the forty-three people one by one with Lili, so there can't be any problems."

Everyone was naturally reassured by Guan Feng's gaze.

In some ways, this is even more exaggerated than the machine itself.

Wang Xun asked, "Could it be that this fingerprint wasn't actually left by the suspect, but by the repairman?"

Guan Feng nodded and said, "Your deduction has a certain probability, but this would result in too many samples for investigation, making it difficult to find clues. However, let's collect the master's fingerprints first. Old Chen, which team member do you want to go? I'll have the branch police officers cooperate."

Chen Xuewen said, "No problem." He then beckoned someone to go ahead.

Guan Feng nodded, instructed a police officer on duty to accompany him, then checked the time and said to everyone, "Alright, it's noon. Everyone, have lunch first and wait for the other results. Wang Xun, let me see your interrogation record."

Wang Xun said, "Okay."

Guan Feng then said to Li Xiangdong, "This place is too remote. You take Lili and drive to the city to buy some food. Let's have Shaxian ham sandwiches. Ask them to add a lot of side dishes. Once you've eaten and drunk your fill, we can continue investigating the case this afternoon."

"receive!"

Li Xiangdong left with Huang Lili.

Guan Feng then opened the interrogation record, which contained the transcripts of questions asked of the people who went out drinking last night.

Guan Feng read through the statements one by one, but didn't find any useful details. But just then, he saw in someone's statement that they had originally planned not to go to the city and to eat at a small restaurant nearby.

It was Liu Yang who suggested that since everyone rarely goes out, they must have a good meal, and he even said something like, "If we become rich and powerful, let's not forget each other."

These details would not normally have attracted Guan Feng's attention.

After a morning of investigation, he had some vague guesses in his mind and began to continue his research.

A moment later.

Guan Fengchong asked Wang Xun, "Where is this Chen Guang?"

Wang Xun said, "He was one of the forty-three people just now, the third one in the second row."

Guan Feng thought for a moment and asked, "The one in the black clothes?"

Wang Xun said in surprise, "Captain, you have such a good memory? That's right! It's the one in the black clothes."

Guan Feng recalled the other party's behavior just now and said to Wang Xun, "Go and invite Chen Guang back. Tell him we have questions for him and hope he will cooperate."

Wang Xun said, "Okay."

A moment later.

Chen Guang was invited over.
