I won’t mention my trip to Hangzhou for now. (The author can’t write!)
…
cough.
The fifth day of the first lunar month, Linyang City.
According to Chinese traditional custom, the solar calendar is not mentioned before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
After returning home to celebrate the New Year, everyone feels refreshed, even in Linyang City.
Since the first day Bai Song led the team there, everyone here has been on leave, and many grassroots police officers are suffering.
Not everyone is like Bai Song, who is able to stick to his interesting work. Some grassroots police officers, after receiving their tasks, visit the masses everywhere, from morning to 10 o'clock in the evening, and walk 40,000 to 50,000 steps a day on WeChat Sports, which is very hard.
After a few days of rest, everyone looks much better.
Wang Si and others led the team away. Lin Yang only needed to receive Li Chu, Bai Song and others, which seemed much more convenient.
Director Li was easy to deal with, as long as there was someone to accompany and arrange things. The remaining four young people were not picky people. It was just eating pig intestines for breakfast. What could be picky about that?
In fact, after Wang Si left, Bai Song and others felt much more comfortable. There wouldn't be so many people accompanying them, and they didn't have to stand on a high position to provide guidance during any case.
As for Director Li... Director Li doesn't care about them.
…
On the fifth day of the Chinese New Year, Bai Song went to the local docking department to ask for a Magotan with a local license plate, preparing to drive to Chengji County, E City, Inner Mongolia Province.
This place is close to the scene in Qin Province. There was a very suspicious suicide case in the past few days. Bai Song came here last night and flipped through the recent case files. He felt something was wrong.
With Bai Song's current abilities, he is very sensitive to cases.
"Captain Bai, are you planning to go to Chengji County? The Mausoleum of Genghis Khan over there is worth a visit. Do you want us to send someone to take you there?" The leader in charge of logistics for Bai Song and others said politely.
"No need, there's a case to look at over there." Bai Song shook his head.
"I know, it's about the suicide case. Well, I'll contact the local authorities and ask them to make arrangements for you. But it's snowing over there, so I'll arrange a Pajero for you, with snow tires. The road conditions over there aren't very good, so if you have any problems, just call me. The fuel card is in the middle of the car, so you can see it when you get in!"
"Thank you for your help."
…
After breakfast, the four of them set out on their journey north, carrying a large amount of work supplies, daily necessities, and food and drinks prepared by the locals.
"If I could do this kind of work every day, I wouldn't change even if you gave me the position of director." Wang Huadong felt somewhat satisfied.
The car is big and can seat four people very comfortably.
Someone provided the car, someone greeted us there, and everyone had to wait for them and listen to their arrangements. Most importantly, no one cared...
"Yeah... If Wang Liang knew how happy we are with the case now, wouldn't he be anxious to death?" Bai Song said casually.
"Speaking of which, how is Daliang? Didn't we ask him to investigate those people? How come there are no clues after so long? During the New Year holidays, the police relaxed their duties. Could that 'leader' have escaped?" Sun Jie asked.
"Wang Liang also has to celebrate the New Year..." Bai Song glanced at Sun Jie: "Brother Jie, you are even more cruel than me."
"I know he's celebrating the New Year, so I just said that..."
"Actually, it's not a bad thing for Wang Si to give us this holiday. This kind of person is suspicious, and he generally won't act rashly until we leave completely. He has hundreds of thousands of dollars on hand, which is enough for a month even if he finds someone to learn foreign languages every day. Why act rashly now? It's better for us to move, otherwise how can someone spread our movements?" Bai Song smiled and said, "This is why I ran to other provinces so early in the morning. Before I left, I specifically told the cafeteria not to prepare our meals."
"So, is it possible to get a clue today?" Huadong was a little excited.
"Not necessarily. It depends on luck." Bai Song said indifferently, "This case in Meng Province is quite interesting."
"Can you tell me about it?"
"Let's talk about it after we get there. This case has been classified as suicide without motive." Bai Song said.
"What the hell? Does suicide have a motive?"
"How can suicide be differentiated? People won't commit suicide unless they have no other choice. There is always a motive. Either they feel that life is meaningless and without a goal, or they are hiding from debt, or they are trapped in love, or they are suffering from an unbearable disease... There is always a motive."
"Why don't you just say 'reason'? You have to say 'motive'. You must be crazy in handling the case."
"Okay... I mean... Anyway, this case was a suicide for no reason. Didn't I ask them to count a few of them? Those few that were counted were basically confirmed to be related to this 'leader'. But I feel this one is a little special, mainly because his death doesn't look like suicide."
"Let's talk about it when we get there."
Bai Song felt that there was absolutely no completely correct command in this world.
He had offered a reward in the village before, and it seemed to be effective, but a lot of meaningless clues came in.
Before the New Year, let the nearby cities and counties investigate these unexplained suicides and link these suicides to this organization. This will also cause the police to relax their vigilance and may lead to some homicides being defined as suicides.
Before noon, the car arrived in Meng Province.
The road is not easy to walk on. It snowed heavily some time ago. The further we go, the harder it is to clear the snow.
"You just said that this case might be a homicide. It's snowing so heavily. If it was a homicide, how could there be no traces? Isn't it a taboo to kill someone in the snow?" Liu Shuyuan asked.
"Yes, and this case happened in the countryside. Do you remember when we were investigating the family murder case a few days ago, you said that it was impossible for high-IQ cases to occur everywhere? We are not looking down on the countryside, but if this is a murder case, is there such a great person in this village?" Wang Huadong also expressed his doubts.
"Don't underestimate rural people. The man who died in this case didn't lose any money, and he died from drinking pesticides." Bai Song said, "We can't be rigid in our thinking when handling cases. There are some smart people in rural areas. This matter may not be that simple."
"Then we can avoid detection by the local county detectives?"
"It would be difficult on normal days, but now that statistics on abnormal suicides are collected, it is easy for people to have a fixed mindset," Bai Song continued, "The most important thing is that this person is a bachelor."
"Bachelor? Isn't it normal for a bachelor to commit suicide?" Liu Shuyuan asked.
Everyone looked at Liu Shuyuan: "You are the only bachelor among the four of us."
"Uh... don't mention that, just talk about this case."
"This is not an ordinary bachelor. This bachelor has more than a hundred sheep at home." Bai Song said.
"That's right." Liu Shuyuan immediately justified himself: "A single person without money is called a bachelor, and a rich person is called a single noble."
"Okay, okay..." Bai Song shook his head: "So it's worth going to see. After this bachelor died, no one inherited his estate. According to the law, the estate of villagers like him belongs to the collective. There is interest in this."
"It's definitely worth a look." Sun Jie nodded: "Drive slower!"
