I am a super cop

Chapter 1130 You may have passed the murderer

There is no such forum in their own department, but other police forces in other places have opened forums about themselves, which is a new thing.

From the fact that the third-level superintendent can accurately state his hobbies, it is not difficult to see that these policemen are not simple.

Seeing that Lu Weiwei was so curious, the third-level police superintendent stopped making detours and replied directly: "Actually, it's nothing. It used to be a police forum, and it was mainly used to discuss issues with police members and a tribal gathering place for complaining."

"In order to protect privacy, all accounts in the tribe are anonymous. Of course, if you want to tell people publicly that you are a policeman in a certain place, it is understandable, but it is easy to be searched by some people with ulterior motives. cause unnecessary trouble."

"I don't know who it was later, but in the tribal forum, the discussion about Gu Chen, the youngest captain of the criminal investigation team of Jiangnan City's Furong Branch, suddenly became a hot topic."

"Is there such a thing?" Gu Chen heard the words, and said with great interest: "Even I don't know that there is such a thing."

Gu Chen pays little attention to this kind of tribe, and has never heard of it.

But the third-level police superintendent said disapprovingly: "The netizens who play this kind of tribal forum are generally younger, but the discussions are very active."

"The previous forum topic about you, but some black fans were making trouble, saying that you won the captain position through your connections."

"After all, you are the youngest captain of the criminal investigation team in the Furong branch of Jiangnan City. It is inevitable that some pink eye patients will look jealous and come up with various ideas in their brains."

"But after more police officers posted your work history to the forum, these black fans gradually disappeared."

"So since then, everyone likes to talk about you and your team, and there is another interesting phenomenon. Whenever the word 'Gu Chen' is included in the discussion, the number of views and discussions is very high."

"Haha." Officer Wang laughed out loud, pointing at himself and said, "Did you discuss anything about me, Old Wang?"

"Yes, including Yuan Shasha, anyway, the team around Gu Chen, everyone likes to discuss it."

The third-level police superintendent seemed to be discussing Gu Chen endlessly, which shows that Gu Chen's popularity in Hangzhou is not bad.

Gu Chen asked with a faint smile: "After talking so much, I still don't know your name?"

"My name is Nie Qin, and I'm in charge of connecting with you."

"Okay, Nie Qin, can you now take us to see the fingerprints you entered in the information database, and the colleague who handled the woman's case?" Gu Chen said.

Nie Qin was stunned: "Is this... so urgent?"

Gu Chen nodded silently.

Nie Qin said again: "I heard that your case has been going on for 20 years, so you're not in a hurry, right?"

"It is because the families of the victims have been waiting too long, so we should speed up the progress."

What Gu Chen said made Nie Qin speechless, but fortunately Nie Qin is also a frequent visitor on Gu Chen's forum, and she is very aware of Gu Chen's work style.

So he nodded in agreement and said: "Okay, we should learn from your style of handling things, then let's go, I will take you to the branch office."

Several people had a brief communication at the station, followed Nie Qin to get on the train, and came to the criminal investigation team of the sub-bureau.

At this moment, a first-level police superintendent was opening a file and handing it over to Gu Chendao: "Captain Gu, this is the case we sorted out last month, and I was also responsible for entering the fingerprints."

"I'm sorry." Gu Chen took the portfolio and opened it casually.

The first-level superintendent said again: "The thing is like this. Last month, this woman named Wang Qian suspected that her husband had an affair with someone, so she called a few girlfriends to surround the woman when she got off work. , beat her in public."

"Fortunately, my colleagues from the patrol team and I met in time when we got off work, which prevented the further escalation of this fight."

"But because the conflict between the two parties was too intense, we brought all these people back to the police station for investigation, and this is how the fingerprints were recorded."

"You have done a good job, but you have helped us a lot." Police Officer Wang's joy was beyond words, and he held the first-level superintendent with both hands and said: "Brother, you should know that this fingerprint entry happened exactly 20 years ago. The fingerprints on the dead body tape match exactly."

"Over the years, our Jiangnan Police Force has been looking for clues, but we have no clue. If it weren't for this fingerprint, I'm afraid we still don't know how to start."

"It should be." Unable to bear Comrade Wang's enthusiasm, the first-level superintendent also smiled lightly.

Gu Chen said: "Then is this woman's contact address her current address?"

"That's right, it's here, and when we received your contact from the Jiangnan City Police, our director attached great importance to this, and specifically compared the fingerprints you sent with the fingerprints recorded on our side, and asked our criminal investigation department to Carry out investigation and judgment work."

"But I didn't expect that you would come so soon, much faster than I imagined."

"Time doesn't wait." Gu Chen smiled lightly, and hurriedly asked the first-level superintendent: "Then we are going to this place now, can we borrow a car?"

"Don't worry about that." The first-level superintendent glanced at Nie Qin beside him, and said, "Xiao Nie will take you there."

"That's work."

After exchanging pleasantries with the criminal investigation team of the sub-bureau, everyone immediately set off to the woman's residence.

In the car, Nie Qin also complained: "Our criminal investigation team was originally responsible for helping you investigate, but I didn't expect you to come so fast. It seems that next time we find such clues, our branch should be the first step."

"Haha, look at what you said, it seems that we are here to take credit." Lu Weiwei also said jokingly.

Then everyone glanced at Gu Chen at the same time.

Gu Chen was silent at the moment, as if thinking about something on his mind.

Nie Qin hurriedly asked Gu Chen: "Captain Gu, what are you thinking?"

"I'm wondering if I made a mistake." Gu Chen said.

Nie Qin smiled faintly: "Why do you have such an idea? But the fingerprint sample you provided completely matches the fingerprint of this woman named Wang Qian, which shows that she is inseparable."

"Although the words are correct." Gu Chen pondered for a few seconds, and then said: "So far we all believe that in such a case, the fingerprints are most likely left by the assailant."

"However, an eyewitness we interviewed recently told me that the perpetrators may all be men, so now there is a contradiction in information, and I think there must be something wrong with it."

When Nie Qin heard the words, she also smiled lightly: "Captain Gu, will this happen, that is, the possibility of this woman committing crimes with others cannot be ruled out."

"For example, the woman participated in the robbery before, after the male driver was tied up, several other men jointly threw the victim into the water and drowned him alive?"

"It's possible."

Gu Chen agrees with Nie Qin's idea very much.

After all, this can also explain why there is the fingerprint of this woman named Wang Qian on the tape that binds Lu Jun.

Thinking of this, Gu Chen couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "So it is necessary to find out the close contacts of this woman before and after the incident, and whether she has any connection with the victim Lu Jun. I hope this time it will not be in vain."

During the conversation, everyone has arrived near an elementary school.

Nie Qin parked the car in a vacant parking space, and after getting off the car, she led everyone to search along the house number.

"I remember the woman named Wang Qian. The contact information is at No. 102 on this road. It should be the address of the shop."

"Over there." Gu Chen pointed to a stationery store first.

"Yes." Nie Qin smiled slightly, and quickly said: "It seems that he runs a stationery store."

"Don't say anything, go and have a look." Gu Chen walked over first, and everyone else followed behind.

At this moment, a clerk is cash registering.

Gu Chen walked into the store and looked around, but there was no trace of the woman whose fingerprints were entered, so he turned back to the cashier and asked the female clerk, "Excuse me, is Wang Qian there?"

"You mean the proprietress? Yes, it's upstairs." The saleswoman said.

"Please ask her to come down," Lu Weiwei said.

The female clerk turned her head and yelled upstairs in dialect: "Miss Boss, someone is looking for you."

"Who is looking for me?" A middle-aged woman responded immediately on the second floor of the store.

The female clerk glanced at everyone, and then said: "Yes...the police are looking for you."

After a while, there was no sound upstairs in the store.

The female clerk looked puzzled, but still explained awkwardly to everyone: "The proprietress was arrested and taken to the police station last month, so it is a bit psychological to mention the police now. After all, something happened at home, and I feel unhappy."

"I can understand, but please come down immediately, we have something to ask her." Nie Qin said.

The female clerk had no choice but to respond: "Then... that's fine, I'll call her down."

A moment later, Wang Qian walked down the stairs cautiously with the support of the female shop assistant.

Seeing five policemen standing in front of the cashier, he frowned and said hastily, "Comrade policemen, haven't you explained clearly what happened last time? That was a misunderstanding."

"I admit that I misunderstood that the woman had an affair with my husband, but after all, after the matter was clarified, I also went to the door to apologize, and I also stayed with her family."

"Because of this incident, my husband was so angry that he didn't go home for several days. Now that I know I was wrong, why are you still looking for me?"

"It's not because of this that I'm looking for you." Gu Chen walked around the stationery store twice, found the tape on the shelf, and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

So I quickly asked Wang Qian: "You opened a stationery store 20 years ago?"

"Ah?" When Gu Chen asked suddenly, Wang Qian's expression froze.

Lu Weiwei continued to ask: "Just to ask, did you open a stationery store 20 years ago?"

"You...how do you know?" Wang Qian looked at the crowd, her eyes changed.

Suddenly, she pointed at the crowd and said, "You guys have been investigating me for 20 years? I just hit someone. Do you need to track me down for 20 years? You... are you policemen all so perverted?"

"What are you talking about?" Feeling that this woman is so difficult to communicate with, Nie Qin said angrily, "Who is willing to investigate you for 20 years? Who do you think you are? Do you think we are willing?"

"Then...then the policeman asked me why I opened a stationery store 20 years ago? Is it not illegal to open a stationery store 20 years ago?"

"I didn't say you broke the law." During the conversation, Gu Chen had already come to her with a file bag.

So he took out a piece of document paper for comparing fingerprints, pointed to the fingerprint sample on the left side and said, "This fingerprint was extracted in Jiangnan City 20 years ago. It came from the tape that bound a dead body."

Seeing Wang Qian's puzzled face, Gu Chen then pointed to the picture of the fingerprint sample on the right and said, "The fingerprint on the right is the fingerprint you entered last month because of a fight. The match is almost exactly the same."

"What... what?" Hearing Gu Chen's remarks, Wang Qian was stunned: "You mean... these two fingerprints are exactly the same?"

Gu Chen nodded silently: "So you should know what is the purpose of our coming to you this time?"

"I'm wronged." Wang Qian was terrified at the moment.

I thought it was the last fight that hadn't ended yet, but now it seems that's not the case at all.

This time when the police came, they actually involved a dead body.

Wang Qian was almost scared out of her wits now.

Seeing Wang Qian's nervous expression, Gu Chen also comforted her: "You don't have to be so nervous, I came here to find out what happened back then, and I didn't say you were the murderer."

"Of course I'm not a murderer. How could I be a murderer?" Wang Qian was so frightened that her legs trembled, and she also tried to defend herself: "Comrade policeman, although I'm a good fighter, if you want to talk about killing people, I'm going to kill you." I can't even kill a chicken, I..."

"I know, you don't have to be so nervous." Feeling that Wang Qian had started to speak incoherently, Gu Chen also explained: "We came here this time to find out why your fingerprints appeared 20 years ago, and bound that corpse so I just asked you if you were running a stationery store 20 years ago."

"Is that so?" Feeling like a false alarm, Wang Qian tried to think back for a few seconds, and quickly confessed: "Yes, I did open a stationery store 20 years ago."

"Where is the store?" Gu Chen turned on the law enforcement recorder, took out the notebook and asked her.

"In Jiangnan City." Wang Qian said.

At this moment, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

Gu Chen hurriedly asked again: "Then you should remember that in Jiangnan City 20 years ago, a sunken body was found in the Sanxi Reservoir of Hejiang Town?"

"I know about this, I've read the news reports." Wang Qian didn't deny it, and said truthfully: "At that time, I felt that the murderer's modus operandi was too cruel. Remember."

"Where did you open the store at that time?" Gu Chen asked again.

After Wang Qian thought for a moment, she said, "The No. [-] Middle School of Jiangnan City is diagonally opposite."

"I'm talking about the specific location, what stores are there next to you?" Gu Chen didn't want to get too general an answer.

Wang Qian continued to recall, and said lightly: "I remember that there was a steamed stuffed bun shop next door to me, and the business was very good. The couple are from Jiangbei."

"What else?" Gu Chen said.

"Anything else? Oh, by the way, and my store is located diagonally opposite the gate of No. [-] Middle School. The owner of the store is the younger sister of the headmaster at that time. It seems... like her surname is Wu."

Gu Chen recorded these, and then asked: "Then do you still remember that a few days before the corpse case happened, did anyone buy tape in your store?"

"Ah?" Asked by Gu Chen, Wang Qian was immediately confused.

"Don't worry, just think about it slowly." Gu Chen knew that it was really difficult for Wang Qian to recall what happened 20 years ago.

But this may be the only breakthrough for the clue, so Gu Chen must maintain enough patience.

Otherwise, it will be the same as the witness I met in Hejiang Town before, and there will be no gains.

Wang Qian also thought for a while before saying, "The impression is a bit vague, but to be honest, I also had doubts about the murder case."

"Because according to news reports, the body of the deceased was covered with duct tape, and a few days ago, someone happened to buy this thing in my store, so I naturally made up some possible situations."

"But after all, this kind of case, how can we ordinary people have access to it? Besides, the police didn't come to ask me, so I just pretended that this never happened, but I talked to the proprietresses of the next few shops."

After a pause, Wang Qian said again: "But at that time, everyone was chatting casually, and they urged me to call the police and provide these information to the police. These are all true, and the proprietresses of those stores back then can testify. Absolutely not lying, if you don’t believe me, you can ask.”

"I know, we will also investigate." After Gu Chen recorded it, he looked up at Wang Qian and said, "But why didn't you call the police? Provide the police with this information?"

"I... I was scared at the time." Wang Qian frowned, but also said truthfully: "You want to say that ordinary people like us live a stable life."

"At that time, I wasn't as nosy as I am now. It wasn't my own business, and I didn't want to care about it at all. Moreover, the murderer was so cruel and scary. Our shops just chatted casually on weekdays."

"If the police come to inquire, maybe we will tell it, but let us take the initiative to provide clues to the police, but at that time I didn't hear that there was any bonus, so everyone's enthusiasm was not very high."

"You're confused." Hearing Wang Qian's remarks, Police Officer Wang couldn't help complaining: "If you had provided clues at that time, the police might have solved the case."

"But do you know? This case has dragged on for 20 years, and the murderer has been at large for 20 years, and you may have missed the murderer."

After being taught a lesson by Police Officer Wang, Wang Qian also regretted it at this time, and hurriedly explained: "This... I don't know this is the case? I want to know that the murderer really bought the tape in my store, then I am sure Call the police."

"But the point is, this is just my own conjecture. If the murderer happened to buy tape from my shop to kill people, the probability should be about the same as winning the lottery, right?"

"It doesn't make any sense to say these things now." I feel that everyone is still struggling with who is right and who is wrong, and it does not help the case at all.

So Gu Chen looked up at Wang Qian and asked, "So, do you still remember who was the person who bought scotch tape at your stationery store a few days before the incident?"
