Chapter 57 Hidden Rules 02 I have some ideas.
Chapter 2
Wang Chenhui shook his head: "No."
Kou Lang asked again: "Last week you made an appointment with Li Sai to go fishing together on the weekend. Have you met him?"
Wang Chenhui said: "We made an appointment, but I didn't see him. I called him and sent him messages, but he didn't reply. I thought he might have been delayed by work or other things. He had made an appointment with me before but didn't show up, so I didn't take it seriously."
Kou Lang: "Where do you usually go fishing in Fancheng Reservoir?"
Wang Chenhui said: "There are fewer people at the east gate parking lot, and more people at the north gate campground. The west and south gates are close to the main road, and the cars coming and going are too noisy to fish."
Li Sai was found dead in the parking lot of the North Gate campground, not the East Gate parking lot where they often went fishing.
Kou Lang asked: "Will Li Sai camp at the reservoir campsite?"
“Normally not.” Wang Chenhui said, “But there seemed to be a small event at the North Gate Campground last week.”
"What activities?"
Wang Chenhui opened another friend's circle of friends, and Wang Chenhui clicked it to show Kou Lang and the others: "This is it. This event was scheduled a month ago. Li Sai talked to me at the time and asked me if I wanted to attend. I wanted to go, but it happened to be my brother-in-law's birthday on Friday, and I had to celebrate his birthday, so I couldn't attend."
Kou Lang took Wang Chenhui's phone and checked it. It was a small music festival camping event. To participate, one had to pay an 80 yuan registration fee. The event was from 7 to 10 pm on the 8th.
That is to say, Li Sai died in the car in the parking lot of the campground after participating in the camping activity.
Kou Lang wrote down the contact information of the person responsible for the poster, hoping to see if he could find out what happened to Li Sai that night through the people who attended the event.
After Wang Chenhui left, Kou Lang called the organizer of the event.
The call was connected quickly.
The organizer of the event is Ma Tao, a camping enthusiast who teaches students to play guitar at a music training center and is also a resident singer in a bar.
The weather was particularly good on the night of the 8th, and it was said that you could see the stars, so he thought of organizing a camping party so that young people in the city who like camping could come and play together.
There were more than a hundred people participating in the event that night. When organizing such an event, it is natural to keep backup information.
Ma Tao had experience in large-scale events. He made a sign-in sheet and recorded the contact information of everyone attending the event.
Kou Lang agreed with Ma Tao to go to his home to get his contact information.
At around 4 o'clock, Kou Lang and his colleagues arrived at Ma Tao's house. Ma Tao asked them to come in and said, "Sit wherever you like."
He went to another room and found the sign-in sheet, and brought his camera over as well. "There were more than 170 people who signed up, but only about 140 actually showed up that night. More than 20 people couldn't come for various reasons."
"Do you know everyone who's coming to camp?"
Ma Tao shook his head: "I only know a small part of them, most of them I don't know."
Kou Lang flipped to the sign-in sheet and found Li Sai's signature. "Do you know this person?"
"Are there any photos?" Ma Tao asked.
Kou Lang took out a photo of Li Sai and showed it to Ma Tao.
Ma Tao recalled carefully and said, "I have some impression, but I didn't talk to him that night and didn't pay much attention to his situation."
Ma Tao opened his WeChat Moments and said, "I recorded a lot of videos that night. I can see if he is in the video and who he chatted with the most."
Kou Lang took the phone and looked through the videos recorded in Ma Tao's circle of friends. There were indeed quite a few videos, about twenty or thirty.
"Did you prepare any drinks that night?"
Kou Lang said: "We prepared some beer because this is a camping site. People who are leaving that night will definitely not drink, and those who drive will not drink either."
Looking through the videos one by one, Li Sai can be seen in many of them. He is sitting with a group of people, and they seem to be playing games.
There were a lot of wine bottles on the side. It was probably because people drank when they lost the game. Li Sai lost more, so he drank more.
There were both men and women at the table.
Kou Lang asked Ma Tao: "Can you identify the people who played games with Li Sai?"
Ma Tao took the video and looked at it, then pointed at one of the men and said, "I know this guy, his name is Chen Hai, he's a fitness coach."
Kou Lang found the registered contact information of Chen Hai.
Ma Tao pointed to the registration paper and said, "Everyone's information is here. Everyone who came has basically signed in. We should be able to find out who they are by calling them one by one."
After leaving Ma Tao's residence and returning to the car, the team member asked, "Captain Kou, what should we do next?"
Kou Lang glanced at the time displayed on his phone, thinking that the people from the serious crime team should have arrived by now. "Let's go back to the bureau and meet with my colleagues from the serious crime team first to synchronize information."
The team members drove back to the bureau.
The serious crime squad arrived at the municipal bureau shortly after them.
Fancheng has developed quite well in recent years, and the current mayor of Fancheng is Tingyuan's father.
Kou Lang and others were waiting downstairs to pick someone up.
The police car drove into the Municipal Bureau. Zhou Yu looked at the building and said with some envy, "It's really grand." Then he pushed the door and got out of the car.
Lu Changfeng also nodded in agreement, opened the car door and got out.
Kou Lang immediately came forward and extended his hand enthusiastically, "Hello, I'm Kou Lang, you must be Captain Yue."
Lu Changfeng held Kou Lang's hand and said, "I am the deputy leader of the serious crime team, Lu Changfeng."
Lu Changfeng turned his head and saw Yue Fanglin getting off the car. He said, "This is Captain Yue."
Kou Lang felt a little embarrassed and quickly greeted Yue Fanglin again: "Hello, Captain Yue."
Yue Fanglin smiled and said, "Hello, Captain Kou."
Jing Jue and Zhou Yu also introduced themselves and shook hands with Kou Lang.
Seeing that they all had luggage, Kou Lang said, "Why don't I arrange for everyone to go to the guesthouse to put their luggage first."
Yue Fanglin said: "Let's understand the case first."
"That's fine." Kou Lang immediately moved aside to invite, "Let's go upstairs to the conference room to talk."
The group went to the meeting room of the Criminal Investigation Brigade upstairs, greeted each other and took their seats.
Kou Lang's subordinate Liu Xiaofeng said: "We went to the deceased's company to find out the situation. The deceased's colleagues said that he was usually very polite to his subordinates in the company and did not have any major conflicts with anyone."
Another subordinate, Liang Siyu, took over the conversation: "We retrieved the surveillance video from the deceased's home to the reservoir. The surveillance in the underground garage of the community showed that he was alone when he left the house. The surveillance in the parking lot outside the campground showed that the deceased also got off the car alone. He should have been alone from home to the campground at the reservoir to participate in the activities that night without any companions. When he passed Sanxian Road on the way, the traffic police checked the car. If he was drinking at the time, he would have been discovered by the traffic police. Therefore, we can rule out that he had been drinking before arriving at the campground."
"The campsite is only monitored at the entrance and exit, and the coverage is not comprehensive. We have no way of knowing who Li Sai last came into contact with at the campsite. The Judge's Mark also extracted fingerprints, and there were only Li Sai's own fingerprints."
Kou Lang said: "I got the list of people who participated in the event from the organizer of the camping event. I also got a lot of videos, which showed Li Sai playing games and drinking with others. We have learned the identity of one of them, but we haven't found him to find out the situation yet."
Kou Lang looked at the members of the serious crime team and said, "This is all the information we have at the moment. Captain Yue, do you have any ideas?"
Yue Fanglin and Lu Changfeng looked at each other, and Lu Changfeng nodded.
Yue Fanglin pointed at the Judge's symbol and said, "Whether the autopsy report is out or not, this case is being investigated as murder. In the Judge cases that our Group 9 has taken over since its establishment, this symbol appears because the deceased had done something bad before his death, which led to the Judge's murder. Unlike ordinary murders, where the murderer has a direct or indirect hatred for the deceased, there is not necessarily a close connection between the Judge and the deceased."
"So, anyone could be the murderer," Liang Siyu said.
Lu Changfeng nodded.
Liang Siyu twirled the pen in his hand: "Instead of looking for a needle in a haystack, why not start directly with the judges? After all, they are the source."
Yue Fanglin said: "The Judge has been hiding in the dark and hasn't revealed many clues so far. The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. This road won't work."
"It cannot be handled according to the usual criminal cases. There is no clue at all and there is no way to investigate!" Liu Xiaofeng scratched his head.
"It's not like we have no clue. The judge's focus is on the trial. By investigating the bad things the deceased did during his lifetime, we can at least figure out why the deceased was retaliated by the judge."
The office fell into silence.
Kou Lang was afraid of a dull moment, so he continued, "Then let's follow Captain Yue's instructions and investigate this area first. Although there is no surveillance at the scene, fortunately the organizer recorded a lot of videos. We have checked all the relevant personnel. In case someone saw or heard something, it might help us solve the case."
Lu Changfeng asked Kou Lang: "When you arrived at the scene, were there any characteristics at the scene or on the deceased?"
Kou Lang carefully recalled every detail after arriving at the scene and replied, "There is nothing special. If we don't find the judge's mark in the car, we will perform an autopsy on him according to normal procedures. If the autopsy shows no human factors causing his death, the forensic doctor will issue a death certificate and the case will be closed."
After listening to this, Lu Changfeng did not respond and fell into thought.
The office was unusually quiet.
"Do you have any doubts?" Yue Fanglin asked Lu Changfeng.
“I have some ideas.”
"Then why don't you tell us and we can discuss it together," Yue Fanglin suggested.
Lu Changfeng saw a mobile writing board next to the conference room, pulled it over, and wrote as he spoke: "In the first case we took over, Jiang Hua was killed because he cyberbullied others and was punished as a typical case. The core is cyberbullying. In the second case, Tang Wenxuan and others were killed because they bullied Jiang Yue on campus and smashed Jiang Yue's intestines with stones, causing Jiang Yue to bleed to death. When Wang Qi and his team first arrived at the scene, they found stones in the pockets of the five dead, which corresponds to them smashing Jiang Yue's intestines with stones, causing Jiang Yue's death. The judge leaves directions for evidence in each case. In this case, when the deceased was found in the car, he smelled heavily of alcohol. So is it possible that his death was related to alcohol?"
