Chapter 235: Special Outward-Toed Gait



Jiayi got out of the car first and went back to the police station. Xu Shaowei sat in the car for a long time, so long that the detectives of Team B went out for lunch and then joined him.

Liu Jiaming also asked Xu Shaowei what happened. Jiayi only said that the police widow who was visiting today was an old colleague of Xu Shaowei, and she was probably a little sad.

Silly Jiaming was still sighing: "Being a policeman is really a high-risk job. I am so lucky that I have never fired a shot so far. It may not be a bad thing."

"Practice more with the gun, otherwise it will rust when you don't use it." Sanfu patted Liu Jiaming's shoulder and got on Brother Yue's big jeep.

Everyone went to eat together. At the table, Xu Shaowei was still immersed in his own thoughts.

Jiu Shu and his friends all thought that he was sad. Some of them helped him pick up food, and some of them poured tea for him. When they left after dinner, Brother Yue even patted Xu Shaowei on the shoulder to comfort him.

However, when Brother Yue's hand left Xu Shaowei's shoulder, he was not comforted. Instead, he showed an expression of gritted teeth and frowned, which seemed to be more painful.

...

On the way back after dinner, Fang Zhenyue took Jiayi to meet his informant.

According to the informant's tip, Jiayi made a detailed record and called everyone to a meeting after returning to the police station.

Just as he took off the cap of the marker in his hand, the office phone suddenly rang.

Jiayi walked over and picked up the phone. She responded a few times and then hung up. She glanced around the office and said,

"The police station received a report that a car was found at the entrance of a tenement building construction site.

"It was found to be stolen. Colleagues from the forensic department found a large number of fingerprints and other signs of use by thieves on the car.

"After the report came out, colleagues from other departments suspected that it was related to the two victims of our underwater double corpse case."

"Wow! Good luck has finally arrived!" Liu Jiaming exclaimed. He had read through all the documents in his hands and almost memorized them, but he didn't find anything new. It was great. He finally had a new direction. It was like a savior.

The faces, fingerprints and some teeth of the two corpses in the sea were destroyed by the murderer. It was almost as if the police thought of something and turned around to check, and found that the murderer had dealt with the clues.

It was really difficult to hit a wall everywhere.

"..." Jiayi curled the corners of her lips in a complicated way, and said softly: "Let's go to the scene with the Forensic Department to do a second inspection. We will also walk around nearby to see if we can find more clues."

Fang Zhenyue called the police dog team again, and then a team of people set out together and gathered at the entrance of the tenement building ruins with the Forensic Department and the Police Dog Team.

This area is very large, and it is necessary to split into many groups to look for clues.

When Brother Yue was dividing the groups, Jiayi looked at Xu Shaowei and took the initiative to suggest that she would stay with Xu Shaowei to accompany the colleagues of the Forensic Department to do a second inspection of the car parked at the entrance.

Fang Zhenyue turned to look at her with some confusion. In the past, Jiayi always took the lead in the front line. She should want to participate in the search for clues in person. Why did she choose to stay and work with the forensic department this time?

Although he felt strange in his heart, he nodded after looking at Jiayi. She didn't explain, and he didn't ask. He led other detectives to search the entire tenement building ruins.

Xu Shaowei stood beside Jiayi to protect the safety of his colleagues in the forensic department. Jiayi kept communicating with the collectors of the forensic department about the case, trying to find new angles to collect clues.

He just watched silently, looking up from time to time, taking a deep breath to relieve the constant depression.

Turning his head to look around, he could no longer see the scattered detectives from Team B. They would find the first crime scene, so what?

Looking back, Diane was squatting outside the driver's seat, using a high-spot light to look under the seat for any clues that she had missed.

Those things were useless in solving the case. Even if the police had investigated the two dead bodies thoroughly, they would not be able to touch him. He was a policeman and understood the logic of police investigations the best. Even if Yi Jiayi was a detective and was very good at solving cases, it would be in vain if she had no straw!

Xu Shaowei couldn't understand why she suspected him, nor could he guess when she started to suspect him. He had to admit that she was sharp, but couldn't she find any evidence?

Stamping his feet, he whispered, "I need to pee."

Jiayi turned her head to look at him, "I want to go too, let's go together."

Xu Shaowei frowned slightly, and without saying anything, he took the lead. Jiayi followed behind him, always on guard, and ready to draw her gun at any time.

She gritted her teeth, and when they were alone, her expression returned to being gloomy.

After walking for a while, the car and other colleagues in front of the ruins of the tenement building could no longer be seen. Because Jiayi was following him, Xu Shaowei could not just find a secluded place on the side of the road to relieve himself, so he had to take a detour and follow the small road to the village to use the toilet.

The two turned onto the shaded stone stairs closest to the village house. Xu Shaowei gritted his teeth, turned around suddenly, and glared at Yi Jiayi hatefully.

When he stopped, the female police officer also stopped instantly. She raised her head and glared back at him with the same hateful expression.

The two confronted each other for a few seconds, and Xu Shaowei suddenly turned his face away in pain. He wanted to turn around and continue walking as if nothing had happened, but the emotions in his heart were running wild and he couldn't stop them.

"I know why you want to bring me to stay. Isn't it because you are afraid that I will destroy the scene when I go to search, and you are also afraid that I will destroy the clues in the car if I stay by the car?" Xu Shaowei suddenly suppressed his voice and questioned angrily.

Jiayi looked up at him and didn't answer.

He knew everything, but he did nothing.

If he took action against her, even if she would be in danger, it would be considered a confession.

As long as he didn't kill her, she would have a reason to investigate him.

But he did nothing.

He didn't turn himself in.

Even when she finally decided to expose herself to him after countless struggles, he did not silence her.

He did nothing.

The reason why Brother Yue and Inspector Qiu Susan chose him was largely because he was a good fighter, had good marksmanship, and was excellent in all kinds of physical confrontations. The superiors wanted her to play to the advantage of her brain to help her make up for her lack of combat power.

She could not beat him no matter what, and a fight would mean a dead end where both of them would perish. She knew she was in danger, and she would tremble with fear at night when she thought that he might attack her.

But she had already stood on the opposite side of him. Since he killed the first person, she was destined to be in danger of being killed by him no matter what choice she made.

It was impossible for her not to investigate the case. Regardless of whether she had a mind-flow image or not, regardless of whether she revealed that she knew everything, he had the intention to silence her, the sergeant who solved the strange case and happened to be in charge of the "91 case". Fang Zhenyue might not be so easy to kill, but it was so easy for her to kill a female police officer who was inferior to him even though she practiced hard.

Without evidence, she was his most defenseless teammate. No matter what choice she made, she was already standing in front of his gun.

But he did nothing.

Jiayi glared at him angrily. She wanted to cry. She wanted the good teammate whom she trusted and could trust her back. She wanted the Xu Shaowei who had just joined the team and although he was averse to socializing, was also trying to integrate into the team quietly. He had afternoon tea with them and dealt with criminals together. He would quietly pass her a piece of orange peel when she saw a corpse, and would rush to catch the murderer regardless of everything when chasing a barbecued pork bun case.

She had only been a police officer for less than a year and was not fully prepared to face such a complicated situation.

She just wanted to cry and return to her safe shell, but she couldn't cry. She had to harden her face, grit her teeth, and confront him.

Even if she didn't want to, and wanted to escape, she still had to force herself to face it.

What else could she say to him?

She just wanted to be on guard against him. She no longer dared to walk in front of him, and no longer dared to let him work alone with other teammates on the mission.

He had promised her...

but now she no longer trusted him.

In the end, only Xu Shaowei went to use the toilet. The villagers were very surprised. Why didn't this handsome police officer find a tree or a hillside to solve the problem, but had to run all the way here to use the toilet.

Xu Shaowei solved the problem quickly and walked out of the dry toilet built in a wooden shed. He saw Jiayi standing in the sun at the gate of the courtyard, with her shadow cast on the woodpile, twisting and turning.

She had her back to him and quietly raised her hand to wipe her face.

Wipe on the left, then on the right.

He turned around abruptly, not daring to look again.

When he bent down to wash his hands in the small iron basin in the courtyard, his chest heaved violently. Some emotions wanted to burst out, but he could only suppress them back into his chest. All the heat in his eyes and heart was suppressed.

He poured them out with his own hands, his hands dripping, the coldest groundwater from a deep well in winter.

...

...

The Forensic Department conducted a second investigation with a purpose, but still failed to obtain more clues.

No evidence related to the gun was found in the car, and no materials left by gunfire were found on the seats, steering wheels, etc., which clearly showed that the car was not the first scene.

And the two dead should not have had a gun. Although the car was stolen, traces of lying were found in the back seat of the car. The two dead should have spent the night in the car. If they had a gun, they would most likely have found clues in the car.

It is still speculated that the gun belonged to the murderer, and no evidence of the murder weapon could be found on the two dead.

When the forensic investigation was about to end, Liu Jiaming, who was in the same group as Yue, ran back to call for help.

They found a place that might be the scene of the first murder and asked colleagues from the forensic department to conduct the investigation.

The car stolen by the deceased was handed over to the uniformed police for guarding. Diane from the forensic department took Ajie, and Jiayi took Xu Shaowei, and immediately followed Liu Jiaming to the central area of ​​the tenement ruins.

Fang Zhenyue found bloodstains in this area, and followed the direction of the bloodstains to find a bullet hole on a broken wall. The colleagues from the forensic department immediately took photos of all the findings and then began to conduct in-depth investigations.

"The splashing blood here is consistent with the cause of death. These dark colors may be brains..." "

The murderer killed two people almost at the same time, that is, he killed one first, and the other one was killed in less than a minute before he could escape. So the blood here is two blood splashes. Imagine if this was not a jagged screenshot and ruins, but a vertical wall, there would be two standard blood splashes and two bullet holes..." "

Before they died, they were sitting here. Did the murderer order them to sit here? But since they were going to be shot, why didn't they run away? Did the murderer lie to them that he would not kill them?"

Diane asked Ajie to take photos and write down everything she said and instructed while she was investigating.

From time to time, she turned around to discuss with Fang Zhenyue and Jiayi.

"No, the forensic colleagues identified the deceased based on the fingerprints left in the car. Both of them were repeat offenders with criminal records. Such a reckless killer is likely to have determined that the murderer wanted to kill people. Death is inevitable, so he has to give it a try or try to escape." Jiayi immediately denied it. The two people she saw in the flow image seemed to be looking down at something.

But she had just checked with Sister Diane. There was nothing like paper around. She walked around but couldn't find it. It is very likely that they were taken away by Xu Shaowei.

After walking around with Sister Diane, Jiayi saw Ajie taking photos on a dried mud field outside the abandoned house. She walked over and saw two unclear footprints.

"It rained here after the murder, so the shoe prints are not very clear, but it dried up again after the rain. This piece of footprints has not been damaged in other ways, and the outline is still clear." Ajie introduced.

Jiayi nodded and stared at the footprints.

Xu Shaowei should have worn shoes that he didn't wear on weekdays when he committed the murder, so some of the footprints at the scene were not deliberately destroyed.

Because the first murder scene was discovered too late, it was exposed to wind, rain and sun, especially the rain, and many clues were destroyed.

But the few footprints... even if you can't see the sole pattern and other information, but this step length, this shoe size, and... this special gait with one foot leaning forward and the other foot turned outward...

evidence... does this count?
