When handling cases over the years, Bai Song would trust his intuition and first impressions, but he would also transcend his intuition and first impressions.

Sometimes first impressions can be misleading, but they are often valuable.

When Bai Song was still at Jiuheqiao Police Station, the key to solving the suicide case of Sun in Guangmingli was Qin Wushuang's words "suicide cannot be ruled out".

…

It was too cold outside, so Bai Song and others chose the village committee.

"According to current analysis, the murderer had planned it and was very familiar with this place," Bai Song said, "but there are really a lot of suspicious points in this case. What I can't understand is that in such a rural case, even if it was a murder for money, I think this family only had tens of thousands of cash at most. It's not that it's not worth killing, but this kind of case shouldn't involve people with high IQs, right? Why didn't we find any obvious problems at the scene?"

"Indeed," Lin, a member of the Linyang City Criminal Investigation Team, nodded. "This type of case shouldn't be complicated. The difficulty should be in finding the person, not analyzing the scene."

There have been some cases of family annihilation in rural areas in history. For example, a murderer named Yang climbed over a wall and killed an entire family, but only took away three or two one-yuan coins. (Note: his name is Xinhai, you can check it yourself)

In a case like this, if the crime was committed only for money and the victim and the murderer did not know each other, it would be difficult to find the murderer's identity, unless the identity happened to be in the DNA database.

However, the scene shouldn't be like this.

"The money in the house was searched, and no blood was stepped on during the search," Sun Jie said, "Unless this person can levitate, the search for money must have occurred before the murder."

"That's impossible," Lin frowned. "If you can get this family to hand over the money without killing them or controlling them, and there's no conflict, then they must be very familiar with the person. From the scene, it seems that the family has almost lost all their money. What kind of relationship is this? From what I've heard from other people in the village, the only one who could do this is the man's eldest brother, but his family is far away in Chang'an City, so there's no time to commit the crime."

"We also learned from the villagers that there was not much conflict between him and his eldest brother, and that his eldest brother's family was well off and he would not do such a thing," added a criminal police officer.

"This is what happened at the scene." Wang Huadong confirmed Sun Jie's words: "Captain Lin, your forensic doctor and I have a consensus on this issue."

Li Chu spoke up at this time: "Captain Bai, what do you think?"

Bai Song glanced at Team Lin and said, "My suggestion is to investigate the deceased's eldest brother's family, including his son."

"We've sent people to investigate." Captain Lin nodded.

…

The atmosphere of the discussion is still good, and no controversy has yet been formed.

After a brief meeting and identifying seven or eight investigative directions, Team Lin began to send people out to investigate, and soon everyone in the room had left.

Today is New Year's Eve. When something like this happened in the village, the village chief and the secretary came over, and some leaders from the town also came. Everyone in the village stopped setting off firecrackers.

A few days ago, Bai Song and others were in another village, also investigating a murder case. Now here, the same situation occurs again. It has to be said that fate is quite wonderful.

After everyone left, only Li Chu, Bai Song and others were left.

"Captain Bai, I noticed you didn't say anything just now," Director Li asked, "We are the only ones left."

"Director Li, I feel that Huadong's first reaction is correct," Bai Song said, "There may not be an outside murderer in this case. Huadong and Brother Jie both said that the man's fatal injury seemed to be self-inflicted, so I think it was self-inflicted."

"If this is the case, then why did the property get lost?" asked Director Li.

"This is also the problem I am struggling with," Bai Song said, "but this may be a distraction."

"Can this also be considered a distraction?" Liu Shuyuan interrupted Bai Song: "Among rural murders, most are committed for money."

"This case cannot be treated as a normal robbery." Bai Song shook his head: "This does not fit the scene of robbery and murder."

"Yes," Huadong affirmed. "Unless his eldest brother came and borrowed all the money from him, if it was a robbery and murder, I would not be able to create this scene unless I could control these three people or stop time or something."

"Don't look at me. I can't do it either, not even close." Sun Jie also shook his head.

"They have asked the provincial department of Qin Province for a footprint expert," Li said, "I wonder if there will be any progress."

"Director Li, you may not know this," Bai Song said, "Huadong can be considered an expert in traceology. Although he is not the best at footprints, if he doesn't find anything abnormal, it will be difficult for a footprint expert to make a breakthrough."

"Well, since you have confidence in your comrades, I have confidence too," Li said, "Then according to what you said so far, the man killed the family and then committed suicide, right? What was the motive?"

"There's no way there could be a motive. The man's wife had a hard time taking care of his elderly mother at home. I heard that the child was quite well-behaved. What could be a big deal for a father to kill his son for such a motive?" Bai Song replied.

Li Chu looked at him with a "are you kidding me" expression, "Then what are you talking about?"

"Maybe there is no motive." Bai Song said, "Not all murders in the world have motives."

"Bai Song," Li Chu was so angry that he didn't even call his position Bai Song anymore. "Although I handle few cases, I have never heard of a biological father killing his wife and children without any motive!"

"Theoretically it's impossible, but there is a type of person who doesn't need to abide by social norms," ​​Bai Song said, speaking out his guess: "That's the series of cases we're handling this time."

"You mean, evil?" Li Chu's face tightened.

If it is a case of evil, then everything can be explained! These people are really willing to give up everything they have! Moreover, if this is the case, then the lack of money at home can also be explained, and they took the initiative to give it away!

"Yes." Bai Song analyzed, "This is not new. This group of people can do anything, and we are now looking for the leader of this organization. He must have some people who know his background. This kind of person is very smart, and he may not trust those who are loyal to him. For example, this man is probably one of the core members and was deceived into doing these things."

"This thing..." Li Chu also has teenagers at home. He really couldn't imagine that this thing could be so dehumanizing. "I have to report this to Wang Si immediately."

"Well, our current ideas are not in line with common sense, but we can report directly to Director Wang." Bai Song took the initiative from Director Li. When encountering a case, his home court was back.
