Chapter 11 The Cross!

To catch or not?

Being a criminal police is a job that puts them under great pressure. They often face cases that present both moral and legal dilemmas. No matter which side they choose, it is wrong, which leads to a very high depression rate among retired police officers.

Including the elderly and infants, the average depression rate is about one-fourteenth. If only adults and young people are counted, it is estimated to be higher than one-eighth.

The police, however, have a five times higher rate of depression due to such cases! Li Jianye took a deep breath, his eyes showing determination.

"Grasp!"

"How to catch it?" Zhao Shui glanced at the rain around him and frowned.

How to catch him? The case has been sorted out very clearly, but there is still no actual clue about the whereabouts of the other party.

"Captain Li, I don't need to explain this."

Xu Hao sat down on the chair, feeling a sense of comfort as he relaxed.

Li Jianye turned his head and looked at the group of people behind him.

"Zhao Shui."

"Here." Zhao Shui said hurriedly.

"Notify the Third Squadron. The Third Squadron will remain at the crime scene to maintain order and conduct investigations."

"The first squadron quickly went to supervise the families of the four deceased and at the same time mobilized the relocation time points of the families four years ago."

"The Second Squadron is following me, and they are on standby at all times."

Li Jianye's eyes narrowed slightly, full of sharpness.

"Walk!"

At the command, the people who were standing together in the rain, wearing black raincoats, instantly scattered.

Everyone immediately became busy and acted according to the instructions.

The three squadrons operated simultaneously on multiple lines in an orderly manner. The parents of the four deceased were temporarily placed under custody, and at the same time, they contacted Penglai City to retrieve the other party's archival information at the time.

As for how Li Jianye will investigate. "How will he investigate? The case is clear, but it seems that these clues cannot catch him."

Chu Xi, who was standing aside, put down the notes and pen in his hand when he saw that there was no movement, and looked around with a hint of confusion on his face.

Xu Hao thought for a moment and said, "A duck leg."

Upon hearing this, Chu Xi took out his wallet and counted the money carefully. Just as he was about to agree, he saw Xu Hao waving his hands helplessly.

"Forget it, no more duck legs."

"There are many ways to find someone, and the most effective way is to search for the other person's identity."

For example.

You know a student's name and what he looks like, so how do you find him? In a normal life, you would go to school or wait on the way to school, rather than go to a restaurant, a foot massage parlor, or the sea to look for him.

Similarly, for a homeless person, there is no reason to go to a five-star hotel or a top university.

But in the corner, near the trash can.

Using identity as the screening target will definitely filter out a lot of useless and messy information! "In other words, we just need to target these areas and send the police to look for them?"

Chu Xi's dazed face showed realization, but after thinking about it, she frowned again.

"But, Jiangsan City is so big, even if there are only..."

"It's not Jiangsan City, it's Jiangdong District, or even around the intersection."

Xu Hao interrupted.

"Hatred will disappear once it is vented, but the scars in your heart will not."

"Just like a person who kills someone and hides the body will stay near the body, afraid that the body will be discovered."

"He'll stay near the body too!"

There are crossroads around, and shops are open on both sides of the intersection. Although the intersection is closed, there are still many people coming and going, constantly watching the surroundings.

The gloomy sky was dotted with raindrops, and the sound of raindrops could be heard in his ears. Xu Hao silently looked at the corpse in the center of the intersection.

“He’s afraid too.”

"I'm afraid no one will find the body."

"So, he couldn't run far, even if the police were around."

"His vent of hatred disappeared, but the resentment did not, and the source of the resentment was."

Xu Hao looked at Chu Xi and the police uniform on the other person.

"police."

Because of resentment, the four bodies were placed at the crossroads, and his resentment was that the case was fruitless, which was the antidote to the resentment. But if the case was successful!

He may not have this concept in his subjective consciousness, but he subconsciously expects it to be so.

"Don't worry, he won't get far."

"It won't go far."

Li Jianye is very fast.

That afternoon, the police took a number of actions in response to this.

The core of them was the First Squadron, which followed Li Jianye to search for the place where the murderer should be.

They are not searching blindly.

Li Jianye conducted a detailed analysis of the murderer's identity as a homeless person and came to three conclusions.

First, the murderer could not have carried around hatred and been looking for someone while changing his identity and status within four years, so he was most likely still a homeless person.

Second, no matter who you are, if you want to survive, you have to eat and drink water. Homeless people must also eat and drink water, which means they will rummage through trash cans and other behaviors.

Third, the other party is still in Jiangdong District, and may even be around the intersection!

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

Five o'clock in the afternoon.

Li Jianye asked his subordinates to bring another person.

"Li Ermao, you really haven't seen him?"

Li Jianye frowned and asked the slovenly and smelly man in front of him.

"No, there are no strangers to homeless people nowadays. It's not a good job. There has not been a stranger in the past five or six years. I would definitely remember it if I had seen it." Li Ermao shook his head.

The person in front of me is a beggar.

In ancient times, beggars were considered a low-class profession. These people had a strong sense of territory, and like wild animals, there were fixed vagrants in every place, and other vagrants could not easily rummage through garbage.

Although it is not so severe in modern times, the division of territory has become an unspoken rule.

Similarly, there are petty thieves or car thieves who are often taken to police stations and detained. Sometimes the police will look for them when they need clues to investigate a case.

"Really don't know?" Li Jianye frowned.

"Really? My territory is not big, and there are not many people here. Even if he lives here, I wouldn't know if I haven't seen him." Li Ermao said with a bitter face.

"That's weird."

Li Jianye frowned and glanced at his surroundings.

This place is about two kilometers away from the intersection. It is a dead end outside a large supermarket. It is very hidden and has slight signs of life.

According to Li Ermao, there is a residential area nearby that drives away homeless people, and each garbage point has a fixed number of idle old men and women who rummage through the garbage. These people have an even stronger sense of territory than he does, and they have fought several times over a few plastic bottles.

So normally no one would come here, and after asking several of my subordinates, it was confirmed that no one had come here. This could only be a trace left by a third party.

In an instant, Li Jianye thought of the murderer! But unfortunately, he only found a few traces of the murderer.

And I don't know when I will leave this place.

"The other party left not long ago."

Li Jianye retracted his gaze, "Where did he go?"

"Where else could he go!?"

"Or does he know that the police are coming to arrest him?"

Why go out? Not full? There are some food residues on the ground, and some unfinished food and water nearby, which means that the other party does not need to go out to collect food for the time being.

It is even more impossible for the police to catch him. The police conducted a confidential investigation throughout the process, and the operation in the afternoon was very fast, so it was impossible for the other party to find out. Moreover, judging from the clues, the other party was not trying to escape.

Why? If it wasn't for food or to escape, what else could a beggar do outside? Where could he go? Suddenly, Xu Hao turned around and pointed to a tall, abrupt-looking building.

"Have you ever been there?"

Li Ermao shook his head, "That's not my territory."

Li Jianye adjusted his perspective left and right, and it took him a long time to see something in the gap. Then he paused, looked at Xu Hao, and walked towards it silently.

What's there? A building that doesn't fit in with the surroundings.

There is a prominent logo on it.

This is a red cross.

The murderer also had a cross on his body.

There is the church.
