Chapter 282 Inspecting the Police Station
Chapter 282 Inspecting the Police Station
While the on-site investigation was underway, Zhao Donglai called Qin Chuan's mobile phone.
A moment later, Qin Chuan hung up the phone, his face grim.
Ten days…
In a typical murder case, Qin Chuan would have no problem getting under his skin, but the crime scene in this case was handled very cleanly, indicating that the murderer was definitely prepared and had planned it for a long time.
Although the entire crime scene was covered in blood, the bloodstains on the ground were wiped away by the murderer with a mop, so no trace of his presence was left.
The fingerprints at the crime scene have been mostly collected, and it can now be basically confirmed that the murderer wore gloves throughout the entire incident.
Qin Chuan had the crime scene investigation skill rewarded by the system, so he was no stranger to crime scene investigation. He even reconstructed how the murderer committed the crime after entering the room based on the bloodstains at the scene.
The room lock was not forcibly broken. There are only two possibilities for the murderer to enter the room: either the other party had a key, or the owner inside opened the door on their own initiative.
Upon entering the scene, Qin Chuan deduced from the location of the bloodstains in the corridor that the other party had opened the door voluntarily for the suspect.
Because the murderer attacked the male homeowner who opened the door as soon as he entered the room.
After rendering the victim incapacitated, he rushed into the living room and killed the second person.
Zhao Baojun, the captain of the criminal investigation team, is indeed quite capable, and his analysis is basically the same as Qin Chuan's.
Apart from a few minor oversights, it's pretty complete.
However, even with this information, Qin Chuan still had great concerns about solving the case.
The suspect must have planned the crime very meticulously, and it appears to have been rehearsed.
The other party did not leave any fingerprints or footprints at the scene.
As for conducting trace evidence analysis, it is not possible to definitively conclude that clues have been found at this stage.
I can only say that this is a possibility.
Zhao Donglai relayed Huang Zhen's message, demanding that he solve the case within 10 days, which put him under considerable pressure.
The work on site was busy until around 3 p.m. before it was basically finished.
Conference room of the High-tech Zone Branch.
Even though Zhang Feng was particularly unhappy with Qin Chuan, he wouldn't secretly sabotage him at this time.
If the case isn't solved, no one in the entire High-tech Zone branch will escape punishment. Even if Qin Chuan is removed from his post, Zhang Feng can't possibly take his place.
Director Tian, who was in charge of criminal investigation, looked extremely worried.
"Director Qin, Political Commissar Zhang... the situation is not optimistic."
Tian Yongjun was able to become the deputy director in charge of criminal investigation, which is certainly not because he has no real talent or ability. On the contrary, Tian Yongjun solved many major cases in his early years and was once a legendary figure in the High-tech Zone Branch.
"The results of the on-site investigation are far from ideal. Based on the current results, there are no indicative clues."
Of course, the absence of any clues at the scene does not mean that the case is unsolvable. In many murder cases, no clues about the suspect can actually be found at the scene.
But the case was still solved.
The root cause is to investigate the suspect's interpersonal relationships; we should start from this direction.
"The criminal investigation team is now conducting a detailed investigation into the victim's interpersonal relationships, and we hope to find something."
After Tian Yongjun gave a brief report on the situation, the other deputy directors remained silent.
Although the case was handled by the High-tech Zone Branch, it actually had little to do with the other deputy directors. Whether the case was solved or not, they couldn't be held responsible.
Even before the meeting started, some people wanted to see Qin Chuan make a fool of himself.
Having just arrived, Qin Chuan had encountered such a case. To be honest, none of the deputy directors present could think of any good solutions.
On the one hand, there was nothing at the crime scene that pointed to anything; on the other hand, Qin Chuan was not familiar with the situation of the High-tech Zone Branch, and only knew a few people in the team.
Therefore, Qin Chuan may not play a significant role in whether this case can be solved; the key lies with the criminal investigation team.
Qin Chuan didn't say much at the meeting. He was indeed new to the area, and Tian Yongjun had made very detailed arrangements. All the people from the Criminal Investigation Brigade had also been evacuated.
The key now is to wait for the investigation results from the criminal investigation team.
Finally, Qin Chuan only made the following request: "I will definitely take overall responsibility for this case. Deputy Director Tian Yongjun will be in charge of the criminal investigation team handling the specifics."
"Please make this work hard. We need to spend the whole day and night tonight and tomorrow night to thoroughly investigate the victim's basic information and interpersonal relationships. I want to hear the report tomorrow night."
Although it was Qin Chuan's first time as a bureau chief, he adapted to the role very quickly.
He is no longer the captain of the criminal investigation team. If he, as the bureau chief, has to personally handle all the specific case investigations, then what is the point of the High-tech Zone Branch Bureau?
Therefore, the key point is command.
Time passed quickly, and no surprises occurred.
The next morning, Qin Chuan arranged for Zheng Bin to go with him to the local police station to take a look.
The area under the jurisdiction of the High-tech Zone Branch is quite large, with as many as eight police stations under its jurisdiction.
Qingchun originally planned to spend two or three days visiting all eight police stations.
As a result, yesterday's time was wasted. The criminal investigation team was still searching and investigating, and they would report back to him in the evening. So Qin Chuan planned to spend the whole day today conducting research at several police stations outside the area.
