As for the charges, we have to wait until the person is caught. The most urgent task now is to solve the case.
Five or six people from Team Three have gone out to investigate the case, and Team Two has also dispatched half of its police force. Everyone chatted for a long time and had almost finished watching the video.
Judging from the video footage, the driver did go to the restaurant to eat and was wearing a hat. He was very careful both times he came and did not say anything to anyone else. He just ordered several dishes and paid in cash.
Judging from the video, the driver came to eat both times just to enjoy some delicious food and not for anything else, which aroused everyone's doubts.
Why did the person behind the scenes hire someone to destroy the video?
The driver went to eat alone. Even if there is a video recording to prove it, what is the point? Why go to all the trouble to deal with it?
Do you think it is impossible for the police to get the clue about the hotel so quickly, or is there something else going on?
Bai Song felt a little regretful that he had copied back not enough videos. After all, a memory card has a limit. It seems that he will have to carry a large-capacity USB flash drive with him in the future. Bai Song secretly made a note of this.
"Wait a minute, rewind the video just now." Bai Song suddenly called out to his colleague who was playing the video.
"Hmm?" Captain Li had just been chatting and hadn't watched the video carefully, but now he suddenly became serious and stared at the screen.
The video that Bai Song called to stop had just been played once, but it was played at an accelerated speed. This second time it was played at normal speed during the key time, and it was played again at this time.
"Is there any problem?" Captain Li was also confused.
"There's a problem." Bai Song looked again, "After the waiter placed the plate, the driver moved the plate."
"Isn't it just so that it's easier to eat the meat on the other side of the plate?" Someone asked in confusion, "If I ordered five dishes, I would eat them the same way."
"So, he is using the orientation of these plates to convey some information, right?" Captain Li understood Bai Song's extra meaning and asked directly without paying attention to the police officer who had just spoken.
"Well, it's possible." Bai Song said, "We need to see if anyone has come to eat in the past two days and has looked in this direction. If anyone has observed the dishes here in the past two days, there is a big problem. I suspect that the driver has passed some information to this person... Hmm? Why are you all looking at me?"
"From the video, it seems that you are the only one who meets this requirement..." Captain Li said dimly.
Forehead……
?
Bai Song recalled the video he had just seen, and it seemed to be true!
Generally, few people would go to a restaurant to eat for two consecutive days. Therefore, apart from the driver and Bai Song, there was no third person who came twice on these two days, and even the waiter who served the driver was not the same person.
"Is it possible that this is the case?" Bai Song saw that everyone's eyes were not right, and felt a little embarrassed. He immediately changed the subject and thought quickly, "After the crime happened, I went to the scene and was followed by someone?"
Upon hearing this, Captain Li also sat up straight: "I think your anti-detection awareness is pretty good, especially when something like this happens. When you were on your way to the restaurant, you should have been able to notice that someone was following you, right?"
"What's going on? Captain Bai, are you being followed again?" Several young policemen who had a good relationship with Bai Song became worried.
"That's normal..." Bai Song felt a little embarrassed again and touched his head: "But I sat on the chair on the street for a long time, and then I got up and bumped into the lamppost..."
…
"Bai Song..." Captain Li reached out and touched Bai Song's forehead, putting on an expression that showed concern for a mentally retarded child: "This can be considered an industrial injury..."
“Uh…” Bai Song is usually very thick-skinned, but he still felt a little embarrassed at this time. He coughed twice and said, “Sometimes I tend to get distracted when thinking about problems.”
The originally depressing atmosphere was mostly dissipated, and everyone was ready to listen to Bai Song's subsequent analysis.
"If I was followed, then everything would make sense. It also explains why I didn't go to the restaurant to deal with this problem yesterday, but today." Bai Song felt that he couldn't lose his image in front of his colleagues, and reasoned: "I think the other party did this most likely because of today's failure. When I went to the scene, there was no one around, but there were still many people watching from a distance. It's normal for someone to find that I'm not dead.
After all, the people behind this must want to see the results. In this case, it is no secret that I was discovered when I returned home next. I can be sure that no one followed me into the community, let alone went upstairs with me, but when I left the community and sat on the bench, it is hard to say.
When I walked into the restaurant and tried to retrieve the video, it took a long time, so it was normal for someone to find out. The main reason was that I was thinking too hard during that time..."
Bai Song didn't want to talk about the embarrassing incident of hitting the lamp post, and continued: "It is a low probability event that I have a memory card, so the other party will only think that I watched the video, and will not think that I have copied the video. In this case, the other party must be worried that I have found some important clues, so they are anxious to destroy it.
If I had returned to the Criminal Investigation Detachment, picked up the documents and storage devices and then went back, the person would have definitely succeeded in escaping. It was precisely because I had already notified someone when I was walking here, and the other party did not calculate the time difference well, that I was caught.
From this perspective, this person is not a temporary employee. It is impossible to find a temporary employee so quickly, so this person must know something else. We cannot underestimate him. "
"Then, Captain Bai, according to what you said, this person is not stupid? Is he pretending to be stupid? Then should we still conduct a psychiatric evaluation on him?" A young policeman asked directly with some confusion.
This has always been the style of the criminal police. When discussing a case, there is no need to talk about official positions, just speak casually.
"Do it. This is even more necessary." Captain Li did not explain much, and continued: "Although what you said makes sense, there is still a loophole. Is the video of this restaurant valuable? There is no need for this person to take the risk and destroy it directly, right? Can't you just ask the boss if the driver has said or done anything here in the past few days? The driver ordered so many dishes for two consecutive days. It's impossible that the boss has no impression, right?
If he learned from his boss that the driver was just here to eat and there were no other valuable clues, why would he take such a big risk to destroy the video recording? "
"That's usually the case," Bai Song nodded. "But the problem is, this boss is face-blind."
