Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 23 Your eyesight is too good
The car stopped in front of a residential building.

"It's right here." Qian Cheng pointed to a window on the third floor:
"After the homeowner reported the case, our technical department arrived at the scene immediately. I was responsible for taking photos of the traces we found."

Qian Cheng even regretted telling the other party that he was from the technical department.

Along the way, Yu Dazhang kept asking him various questions, asking him from various angles about his judgment of the crime scene and the results of the investigation.

Now he was sure that the fat man was really here to look for clues.

"Do you have the on-site investigation report?" Yu Dazhang asked.

"Yes, in the car."

Qian Cheng got out of the driver's seat, opened the back door, and took out a folder from a cardboard box on the back seat.

Yu Dazhang also got out of the car. After seeing Qian Cheng take out the report, he waved to him:

"Come on, follow me upstairs."

Go upstairs with you? Qian Cheng almost threw the report on the ground.

Does this fat guy think he is a leader?

It was indeed me who suggested accompanying you, but you are the newcomer, okay?

Even if we go to see the crime scene, you have to follow me.

Yu Dazhang took a few steps and saw that Qian Cheng had not caught up, so he urged:
"Come on, stop dawdling."

And you still think I'm dawdling... Qian Cheng's forehead was bulging with veins and he wanted to throw the report.

But I couldn’t tell why, my legs seemed to have a consciousness of their own and followed obediently.

The brain says no, but the body is honest.

He wanted to see what other useful clues this fat man could find.

If you can't find it...

hum~
Wait to be insulted!

Going upstairs, Yu Dazhang followed Qian Cheng's instructions and came to a separated room.

This is the characteristic of rental houses in Songhai. A house is divided into several single rooms and rented out to different tenants.

Compared with renting out the entire property, the landlord can earn more rent, and some financially constrained tenants can also rent a cheaper house.

Kill two birds with one stone.

After all, it is a super first-tier city, where every inch of land is valuable. Low-income workers who want to live in a house can only rent this kind of small compartment.

Yu Dazhang first glanced at the empty room of more than ten square meters, and then his eyes fell on the single bed against the wall.

"The bed was not disturbed after the body was removed?"

On-site investigation is the job of the technical department, and Yu Dazhang is not particularly familiar with it. Everyone has their own responsibilities and professional scope.

"Of course." Qian Cheng explained confidently:
“The principle of site protection is to maintain the original state and prevent changes.”

“The most basic requirement is that there should be nothing more and nothing less.”

"Any facilities on site could have traces of the crime."

When it comes to on-site investigation, Qian Cheng seems like a different person. His previous casualness disappears instantly, replaced by focus and seriousness.

"That's fine."

Yu Dazhang didn't argue with him, after all, he was a professional in this area.

When he came to the bed, he lowered his body so that his head formed a 90-degree angle with the bed, and then started from the head of the bed and moved to the foot of the bed little by little.

At the same time, observe every detail on the bed with your eyes.

Qian Cheng stared at Yu Dazhang's every move and felt that this fat man was simply wasting his time.

The survey report is right in my hand, you can just take a look at it.

Your current actions clearly show that you don't believe in the professionalism of our technical department!

After watching for a while, Qian Cheng couldn't help it.

"What are you looking for?"

"Don't talk yet."

Yu Dazhang raised his hand, motioning him not to make any noise and disturb him.

After a while, Yu Dazhang moved to the end of the bed and stayed there for two minutes. It was as if something was attracting him and making it difficult for him to leave.

But in Qian Cheng's eyes, there was clearly nothing at the end of the bed.

"Show me the footprint extraction." Yu Dazhang stood up and turned to look at Qian Cheng.

"okay."

Qian Cheng quickly turned the report to the designated page, then pointed to the picture on it and said:
"After investigation and extraction, we determined that the footprints at the scene were all left by one person. Judging from these footprints, this person is an adult male, and it should be the suspect Kong Lingjie."

Yu Dazhang nodded after hearing this, and then asked as if seeking confirmation:

"Are you sure there are only his footprints?"

Qian Cheng was stunned by the question, and didn't understand what Yu Dazhang meant by asking this, but he still answered:

"There were footprints of another person at the door. After comparison and verification, it was confirmed to be the landlord's."

What’s the use of confirming this… Qian Cheng became more and more confused as he was asked this question.

I originally thought that the fat guy in front of me was pretending to be diligent, but looking at his serious expression, it doesn't seem like he is pretending.

"Okay, now it's your job."

Yu Dazhang motioned Qian Cheng to come to the single bed, and then pointed to the middle and left side of the end of the bed:

"Look at that little black dot. Extract it and take it for testing."

"where?"

Qian Cheng looked in the direction of Yu Dazhang's finger, and after changing several angles he still couldn't see the small black dot.

"That's it!"

Yu Dazhang was also a little anxious.

Anyone can do criminal investigation these days, and he can even investigate the scene with this look.

It really wastes time.

"No!"

Qian Cheng put his head almost to the end of the bed but still didn't see it.

"Look at my fingers, right at my fingertips." Yu Dazhang stretched out a finger and gently pressed it on the bed sheet.

"I see it, I see it, ahhhhh, it really is a small black dot, your eyesight is so sharp, you can spot it."

Qian Cheng shouted excitedly.

He still kept his head pressed against the sheets, like a child who had seen a favorite toy.

"It's hard for me to see it from such a close distance. It almost blends in with the pattern of the bed sheet. How did you find it?"

This is probably the legendary tech geek...Yu Dazhang discovered that Qian Cheng gets particularly excited whenever he encounters professional matters.

At the same time, he also discovered that his eyesight was not just as good as that of ordinary people, as he could see farther.

They are also much better than ordinary people in observing the details of objects.

"It's not important. Just get back to work."

Yu Dazhang simply ignored Qian Cheng's question, which is really hard to explain.

"wait a second."

After Qian Cheng finished speaking, he quickly ran downstairs and brought up an inspection box and a camera in a short while.

After taking out the tools to complete the extraction, he put the extract in the glass container back to its previous position.

After taking the photo, he stood up and nodded to Yu Dazhang:
"Okay, we'll get the test results by tomorrow noon at the latest."

Seeing that Yu Dazhang looked thoughtful, Qian Cheng continued to ask:
"You came here just to find the traces that our technical department missed?"

Qian Cheng does not think this is an oversight of the technical department.

Such a small black dot is difficult to capture with the naked eye, and it may not be found even with a magnifying glass.

This has nothing to do with your major; it's purely a competition of who has better eyesight.

"No." Yu Dazhang shook his head and denied:
"We have different starting points. You are looking for traces that already exist, but I am looking for..."

“It’s a trace that should have appeared, but didn’t.”
