The room full of white shirts did not give Bai Song any pressure at all.
The police system has been reformed, and the second-level senior police captains can wear white shirts. Although these captains are all deputy division-level officers, they have basically popularized white shirts. Even some deputy captains with enough years of work experience have worn white shirts.
What kind of pressure is this? In the Criminal Investigation Bureau, I feel like there are more white linings than blue linings!
Although their ranks were not high, their status was there. Bai Song and the other two sat on the rostrum, looking energetic and upright, which made the older leaders below sit up straighter.
Everyone knows Bai Song, but there are a few who have never seen Bai Song. After all, in the past few years, many leaders have just taken office.
Especially since this year, the pace of replacement of top leaders has been a bit fast.
Wang Liang has a relatively low sense of presence. Except for a few people who know that he is a computer expert, others have only heard of his name. However, Liu Shuyuan is too famous.
When you reach a certain age, your status is already set. In the circle around you, you are always competing with children. They are all in the same circle, and although there are differences among people, they are not big. However, the differences among children are too big.
Some children have no future and are idle, some children do business and enjoy the family's support, and some children are like Liu Shuyuan, who has made progress step by step almost relying on his own strength. He is 29 years old this year and has been a full-time section chief for several years and is about to become a deputy director!
The most important thing is that this is a 29-year-old with many years of work experience, excellent, strong case handling ability, and many merits such as second-class merit...
Many old friends envied Father Liu, thinking that since he was still unmarried, which girl in the family could be worthy of this Mr. Liu...
…
Bai Song had no idea what everyone was thinking, so he remained serious. Ma Donglai presided over the meeting, giving him enough face.
Bai Song is in the criminal investigation sequence, so it is most appropriate for him to be connected to the Criminal Investigation Corps. However, Bai Song is only a deputy director after all, so it is reasonable to have a deputy captain (director) as long as he is here, but no one would say anything if Ma Donglai came.
Ma Donglai's aura has become more and more profound in recent years. As the head of criminal investigation in a municipality, the things he faces every day are not what Bai Song encounters. Therefore, when Ma Donglai spoke, although his opening remarks were a bit long, the captains below did not even dare to yawn.
After listening to this, Bai Song actually understood what Ma Donglai meant. It was simply to ask everyone to pay more attention to this matter. However, when Ma Donglai said this, it was completely different.
I couldn't help but look at Ma Donglai more.
Seven years ago, when Bai Song had just started working, Instructor Li of the police station had competed with Ma Donglai for someone. At that time, one was a veteran section chief and the other was a newly promoted deputy director, with similar experience and connections. Seven years later, Instructor Li became Captain Li, still a section chief, while Ma Donglai was already a deputy director.
…
When it was Bai Song's turn to speak, his speech was much briefer. This place was his "hometown" and not a place to show off. Apart from emphasizing the importance of some cases, he didn't say anything else. He just hoped to start work as soon as possible.
The meeting lasted more than an hour, and Bai Song only spoke for five minutes, but his work efficiency after the meeting was not ambiguous at all.
As early as when Bai Song and others were holding a meeting, many team leaders had understood the content of the meeting and had already arranged for people to pack all the major and serious cases within the required period into file boxes, insert sticky notes, and print out ledgers and send them over.
Bai Song and the others also started working directly. Their presence this time was actually quite a big deal, but there were not many people. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that this was not a routine inspection, but that they had discovered a problem, but they were keeping it secret for the time being and could not disclose which case it was.
There were a lot of case files, so Bai Song went straight to the case of Zhang Xiaotian's death and began to read the case files carefully. They were professionals, and they had to determine immediately whether there was a problem with one of their own.
Zhang Xiaotian’s case file was not very thick, only about four or five hundred pages, and most of it was procedural material.
The perpetrator has been sentenced now. For this kind of case, as long as the police have found out the facts, the subsequent trial procedures are not very complicated. According to the Criminal Law, driving a motor vehicle while drunk and causing a traffic accident that results in death is punishable by up to three years in prison or criminal detention. From the case files of the police, we can see that Zhang Xiaotian's parents did not reconcile, and the murderer was dealt with to the maximum extent, with a three-year prison sentence.
There are many types of traffic accident crimes, the most common of which is traffic accident resulting in death. If the driver flees after causing death, the maximum sentence is seven years; if the driver does not kill anyone at the time, but the victim dies because of fleeing, the maximum sentence is 15 years.
This case was about an ordinary driver who was drunk and driving back home. He happened to meet Zhang Xiaotian crossing the road, but he didn't notice him and hit him to death on the spot.
Bai Song looked at the materials in the case file and found no problems.
To hire someone to kill someone by causing a traffic accident is, to be honest, a very unreliable act. This is why such cases always appear in TV dramas but rarely in real life.
Everyone knows that traffic accident crime and intentional homicide are two completely different things, and the difference in punishment is very large. However, there are many problems in the actual operation process, that is, the police are definitely not stupid.
Traffic accident crime is actually also a crime of negligent homicide. The crime of negligent homicide has a sentence at the end: if there are other provisions in this law, follow the provisions. In other words, this is a general law, and traffic accident crime is a special law. But in the final analysis, this is also a crime of negligence.
Mastering the time, controlling your driving trajectory, understanding the other party's position, the speed and direction of the collision, etc. all require perfect control. Hitting a person is actually much more difficult than hitting a car.
When Bai Song's car was hit, it was following a truck for a long time, and there is only a few seconds difference in time when hitting people, especially when hitting young people.
The incident occurred on February 27, 2018, the twelfth day of the first lunar month. The weather was cloudy and it snowed on February 26. However, since this is the urban area of Tianhua City, the roads were cleared of snow and vehicle traffic was not affected.
Bai Song is quite familiar with this kind of weather conditions. Judging from the photos taken at the scene, there is indeed no snow on the road, but there is snow on both sides of the road. Therefore, pedestrians will definitely slow down their walking speed when crossing the road or walking on the roadside.
At that time, Zhang Xiaotian was going to the vegetable market to buy vegetables. After buying the vegetables, on the way home, he was hit directly by a van while crossing the road and died on the spot.
After investigation, it was found that the murderer went to a friend's house to drink at noon. After drinking, he said during the chat that the traffic police had to work overtime during the Spring Festival. It was already the 10th day of the first lunar month, and the traffic police had started to take turns to rest, so there was no problem with driving.
The friend did not try to stop the murderer, so he drove home at a speed of about 60 or 70 km/h. However, at this speed, he hit Zhang Xiaotian accurately and at the perfect time.
"Tell me what you think," Bai Song looked at several people.
The two female clerks looked at each other, not daring to say a word. Liu Shuyuan glanced at Wang Liang and began to analyze first: "If this is a very unexpected traffic accident, then it makes sense. There is no coincidence in the world. Such cases happen every year. I have seen the data. The number of deaths in car accidents is about 60,000 a year, which is almost ten times that of homicides. There are coincidences in every case. But if this case is not an accident, but murder, then there is a problem. Either our case file is problematic and someone has tampered with it, or there is a master behind the scenes who carefully planned it."
"An expert?" Wang Liang objected: "If this is an expert, he wouldn't cause a traffic accident, right?"
After saying that, Wang Liang was still a little unsure and looked at Bai Song: "Right?"
"Well, I support Wang Liang's statement. He is not an expert, but he is not stupid either. Let's assume that this is a premeditated murder and analyze this case. Let me first talk about the hidden dangers of hiring a hit-and-run to kill someone. The biggest hidden danger is that the driver is here, which is definitely a thunder for the hit-and-run person. You know, there are generally two situations for drivers. The first situation is that the driver has excellent psychological quality, which can be divided into two types: good psychological quality and criminal record. If a person has a good psychological quality, then such a person generally will not fall to the point of taking money to kill people; if these people have a criminal record, they will definitely be paid extra attention by the police and will be more easily exposed. The second situation is that the driver's psychological quality is average. In this case, the driver will just insist that he was drunk, which is good for this group of people."
"Therefore," Bai Song continued to analyze, "this driver is Lei. No matter how much he insists, it cannot change the fact that this person is not a high-end killer. According to our previous analysis, this case avoided us, so there must be many loopholes. Our investigation point is on the driver. Since the driver is willing to kill, he must have encountered family problems and is in need of money, and the other party can meet his conditions. In this case, we intervened at the right time."
"Isn't it too late?" Wang Liang was a little confused: "Many videos can't be found."
"It's not too late," Bai Song said, "The person has been sentenced, and this matter should not be known to anyone. At this time, the driver's family will relax their vigilance. We can boldly speculate that the driver is short of money, but his family did not dare to spend the money recklessly after receiving it, but now it is basically okay. He must have had a great use for the money before, such as buying a house, paying off debts, or treating illnesses. Nothing can be delayed forever. Now that half a year has passed since the case, and he is in prison, how can his family not show any clues? I guess the cost will definitely not be less than 2 million."
"Two million?" Liu Shuyuan asked, "Will it be that much?"
"You should pay attention to a detail in this case. The murderer's blood alcohol concentration is 95, which has reached the standard for drunk driving. Do you know what this means? In drunk driving, the driver can put all the blame on the alcohol and say that he was a little confused. He can say less about many things and make fewer mistakes. If the driver's blood alcohol concentration is only 30, although it is also drunk driving, it is not clear that he ran over and killed someone without braking. But everything has its pros and cons. According to the "Regulations on Compulsory Insurance for Motor Vehicle Traffic Accident Liability", I forgot which article, that is, if you drive under the influence of alcohol, the insurance company still needs to pay compensation, but the insurance company will not pay for drunk driving. Even if the compulsory traffic insurance compensates some medical expenses, you can also seek compensation from the perpetrator. Although there is no settlement in this case, it is still necessary to pay a lot of money for hitting and killing a young man. If the driver does not pay this money now, the court will enforce it in the future. This is not a small amount."
"Young people will have to pay more, right?" Wang Liang was a little puzzled.
"Well, the ages between 18 and 60 are the most valuable. The younger you are before 18, the less compensation you get, and the older you are after 60, the less compensation you get. From 18 to 60, the compensation is 20 years of the local average income. After 60, for each year older, the compensation is one year less, and after 75, the compensation is only 5 years. Zhang Xiaotian is dead, so at least 1 million must be compensated, so the price of hiring a killer is at least 2 million. Moreover, this 2 million cannot be transferred, it must be cash, and it is all in the hands of the driver's family. Because the driver's family does not have that much money in the account to compensate the family of the deceased, of course they dare not take it out, so the driver currently owes money to the family of the deceased. At the same time, the driver's family has a huge sum of money. After the past six months, I don't believe they can bear to not move at all." Bai Song finally said.
"Sure enough, this kind of case has great hidden dangers," Wang Liang nodded to show that he understood.
"Not only these, there must be other problems in this case, that is, why was the driver able to hit Zhang Xiaotian so accurately? The police must have retrieved the surveillance footage after the incident, so it is unlikely that someone was following Zhang Xiaotian, as this cannot be avoided by surveillance. We haven't watched the CD here yet, but I believe the police have no problem, so someone has installed a positioning device on Zhang Xiaotian. There is generally no autopsy for this kind of case, but there must be surface testing, so this positioning can only be the kind that is swallowed in the stomach, just like the kind I asked Sang Gui to eat before, so someone has to cooperate, and this person must have had contact with Zhang Xiaotian. This also has its pros and cons. After Zhang Xiaotian died, the body had already been cremated, so we can't see this thing, but we can also use these to defraud the driver." Bai Song's eyes were somewhat deep.
Liu Shuyuan looked at Bai Song's expression. He had seen Bai Song interrogating people. He was definitely the type who would never give anyone a chance no matter how many rounds he went through.
"Okay, now that the direction is clear, let's start investigating the case." Bai Song's eyes seemed to be shining: "This case can solve all the problems."
