Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 245 Another Use of the Portrait Artist

Xia Bin was ready.

Seeing Yu Dazhang calling him, he stood up and walked over.

"Sit here and watch slowly."

Yu Dazhang gave his seat to Xia Bin, and after he sat down, he pointed at the computer screen and said:

"The suspects in these nine images are in different time periods."

"Look carefully to see if there are any changes in his body shape during different periods of time, and sort them according to the degree of change."

Ma Jian and Ye Zhiyu might not understand what he said, but Xia Bin could understand the meaning.

The title of human camera is not given for nothing.

When it comes to observing people, no one can be more careful than a criminal portrait artist.

It is no exaggeration to say that no detail of a character escapes their eyes.

There are many people who have a talent for painting.

But there are only a few who can achieve "subtlety".

The ability to freeze a character at a glance and memorize all the details in the brain is what makes criminal portrait artists so scary.

This is also the reason why there are so few people in this profession.

After hearing what Yu Dazhang said, Xia Bin just nodded and then focused his attention on the computer screen.

Without even a transition, he switched directly to a state of concentration, concentrating on observing the images on the screen.

Yu Dazhang was afraid of disturbing him, so he turned and walked to the door.

Before leaving, he waved to Ma Jian and Ye Zhiyu again.

The moment the three of them walked out, Xia Bin's eyes were still fixed on the picture on the screen, without moving away at all.

When they came outside, Yu Dazhang took out a cigarette and gave one to each of them.

I wanted to smoke one myself, but when I brought the cigarette to my mouth, I put it down again.

This thing, once you smoke the first one, you will want to smoke the second one, and it’s hard to quit after that.

What's more, Yu Dazhang is a person who has the habit of smoking.

"I have to choose this cigarette. It's so delicious, every puff is enough."

Ye Zhiyu took two puffs, looking like he was enjoying it.

"Where is the cigarette I gave you before? Why didn't you take it out to smoke?" Yu Dazhang asked.

He had given Ye Zhiyu a piece of Huazi before.

But Ye Zhiyu still smoked his Long March cigarettes that cost a few dollars a pack.

"If I get married in the future, that cigarette will be the wedding cigarette at my wedding."

Ye Zhiyu squinted his eyes and exhaled a puff of smoke with a satisfied look on his face.

He is almost going crazy because of poverty... Yu Dazhang looked at him speechlessly, not knowing what to say.

Some people are really like this. Even if they have good cigarettes, they can't bear to smoke them.

Keep it at home and use it to entertain guests, or use it to keep things simple when doing things at home.

"What are you going to do next?" Ma Jian asked.

After a while, the cigarette in his hand was almost finished, which showed how upset he was at the moment.

"This is just the beginning." Yu Dazhang smiled and looked very relaxed:

"Keep calm and don't be affected by the deadline set by your boss. Don't worry, I won't wait until the end of the deadline."

Ma Jian's eyes lit up when he heard this:
"Are you sure you can solve the case within a month?!"

"You think too much." Yu Dazhang glanced at him:
"What I mean is, if it doesn't work out, I'll take you back to Songhai. It's a disgrace in S Province. At worst, I'll never come here again."

Ma Jian was stunned by these words.

Return to Songhai?
Wouldn't that be a deserter?

But...

This is indeed a good idea.

From Songhai's perspective, Yu Dazhang's backlog case team was originally cooperating with the investigation, so even if the case was not solved, it would not have much impact.

Thinking of this, Ma Jian suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Yu Dazhang in disbelief.

No wonder the provincial department leaders did not disband Ding Feng’s special task force. It turned out that they were leaving a way out for Yu Dazhang.

If the case can be solved within a month, everyone will be happy.

If the case cannot be solved, Yu Dazhang will withdraw to Songhai and Ding Feng will continue to investigate. No matter what the result is, it will not affect Dazhang and his team.

This one-month deadline was actually time given to Song Hai’s colleagues to evacuate.

What shocked Ma Jian was that Yu Dazhang had actually guessed his leader's thoughts long ago and saw the escape route that his leader had left for him.

"No need to make a fuss."

Yu Dazhang noticed that he was looking at him in a strange way, so he smiled and said:

"Let's just do our best. Even if we have to go back to Songhai, I will first seek the opinions of the leaders of both sides."

As they were talking, the office door opened and Xia Bin stood inside the door and said to Da Zhang:
"All right."

So fast... Yu Dazhang thought it would take him at least an hour to finish the identification.

I didn't expect it to be over in just the time it takes to smoke a cigarette.

Coming into the house, Xia Bin pointed at the image on the computer screen and said:

“I divided the nine images into three groups of three.”

"From his body shape and posture, the suspect's body is gradually losing weight. Although it is not obvious, the difference can still be seen."

"The area of the sole of the foot touching the ground and the swinging range of the arms and shoulders can all prove this."

Yu Dazhang sat in front of the computer and carefully looked through the images he had sorted.

Each image was then renamed to the monitoring date.

The three groups of images are arranged in chronological order.

This shows that Xia Bin’s judgment was correct.

He had previously cut the monitoring time in order not to affect Xia Bin's analysis of the overall image.

For this purpose, Yu Dazhang also disrupted the order of the images.

As a result, Xia Bin recovered.

The suspect has lost weight!

This is the reason why his physical strength declined...Yu Dazhang immediately came to the conclusion in his mind.

Isn't it true that the thinner you are, the better your physical strength will be?
That depends on what you do.

If it comes to running, thin people will definitely have the advantage.

But when it comes to weightlifting, let a thin person try it.

My weight is not as heavy as a barbell, there is no way I can lift it.

And those who do physical work, the ones who are really strong, are the ones whose bodies become rounder the more they work.

The thinner you get, the more nutrition you get, which will lead to organ failure in the long run.

Yu Dazhang stared at the image of the suspect attacking Li Yong, thoughtfully.

The explosive power has not changed, but due to the weight, the strength has weakened compared to before.

"Can you estimate how much weight you've lost?" Yu Dazhang looked up at Xia Bin.

"It's impossible to estimate by weight." Xia Bin shook his head and said:
"I can only give you an approximate percentage. In the past three months, the suspect has lost about 15 percent of his weight."

This ratio...Yu Dazhang calculated it in his mind.

Assuming the suspect weighs 150 kilograms, he has lost 22.5 kilograms.

Not as thin as I am now.

He recently weighed himself at home and found he weighed 260 kilograms.

If I continue to lose weight like this, my weight will be below 200 in a few months.

When that time really comes, the clothes will no longer fit and you will have to buy new clothes.

"Brother Ma, I sent you the surveillance video." Yu Dazhang said in a commanding tone:

"You create a work group and upload the videos. When you have nothing to do, you can watch these nine videos."

There was no clue for the time being, so Yu Dazhang simply let them familiarize themselves with the case first.

He had just come into contact with case files and surveillance videos, and there was a lot of content that required time to sort out.

But before that, he had one more thing to do.

The backlog of cases task force is not just composed of him and Ma Jian.

Liu Miao has been investigating Li Yong's source of income and background in Songhai for more than a month.
