Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 648 Have I ever disappointed you?
Yu Dazhang didn't want to go into such detail because people think differently, and he had no obligation to teach Captain Xu how to deduce.

However, if some things are not explained clearly, they will inevitably affect subsequent actions.

"I understand."

Team Leader Xu nodded thoughtfully:
“You are thinking from the other person’s perspective, and you have also simulated Xie Wei’s personality and work style.”

“I’ve tried before, but I didn’t succeed. Simulating a complete stranger is too difficult; at least I can’t do it.”

Putting yourself in someone else's shoes sounds easy, but it's actually very difficult.

Many couples don't know what the other is thinking, let alone two strangers.

So it's not that Captain Xu lacks ability, but rather that his thinking pattern is insufficient to simulate the other party's thoughts.

After Captain Xu left, Yu Dazhang went to the interrogation room again.

As he had expected, the hypnosis continued. Ye Zhiyu and Xia Bin were completely focused on cooperating and didn't even notice someone coming in.

Yu Dazhang only glanced at it before silently leaving.

These two are top figures in their respective fields, and his presence would not only be of no help but would also distract them.

Standing at the door of the interrogation room, he stared at the wall in front of him, his brain starting to work involuntarily.

The current concern is that the fourth brother's relatives and friends will keep their mouths shut and not reveal the fact that they helped him rent a house.

This is a possibility, after all, nobody wants to get into trouble.

If that's the case, then it's really troublesome.

Unlike buying a house, renting a house will not result in any records being found under the renter's name.

Landlords and tenants only need to sign a paper rental contract; there is no need for online registration at all.

"That's why Xie Wei chose to hide in the local area in this way."

As Yu Dazhang muttered to himself, he became even more certain of his deduction.

If the fourth brother's relatives and friends have something to hide, they will definitely not be able to keep it a secret.

In addition, the police officers in the provincial department are all experts in interrogation, and it is very difficult for ordinary people to fool them.

Just as he was considering whether there were any loopholes, the interrogation room door suddenly opened.

Xia Bin was the first to come out.

He had a satisfied expression on his face and looked relaxed, as if he had just completed a difficult task.

Yu Dazhang knew at a glance that it was a sure thing.

"Old Ye is amazing."

Xia Bin exclaimed in sincere admiration:

"The descriptions are so vivid, it's as if the other person is standing right in front of you. I can guarantee that the accuracy of these five people's portrayals is over 90%, or even higher."

In such a short time, he's become Old Ye? Yu Dazhang noticed that Xia Bin and Ye Zhiyu's friendship had inexplicably taken a step forward.

Indeed, a man's talent attracts more than just women.

"What is he still doing inside?" Yu Dazhang asked.

He noticed that the door was closed and Ye Zhiyu hadn't come out either.

"We're wrapping it up," Xia Bin explained.

"He said the hypnosis session was a bit long, and to prevent the suspect from suffering psychological damage, he couldn't let him recover on his own; he had to actively awaken him from his subconscious."

That's professional ethics... From a professional perspective, Yu Dazhang still trusts Ye Zhiyu.

Aside from being greedy and cowardly, this person has no other faults.

It can't be called cowardly, Yu Dazhang suddenly remembered that Ye Zhiyu was someone who dared to risk his life to save his mother.

He ruined his future and willingly went to prison so that his mother could have a chance to receive treatment.

The Twenty-Four Filial Exemplars are nothing more than this.

The method is unacceptable, but it seems to be the only way forward.

No wonder he's a psychology expert; this guy lives a life of complete peace of mind.

What do you need to paint a portrait?

Yu Dazhang hadn't forgotten his own affairs, and changed the subject, saying:

"I prepared it for you in advance." As he spoke, he took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and stuffed it into Xia Bin's hand.

He's gotten used to carrying cigarettes in his pocket now, but he doesn't have many packs of Hua Zi left.

"What do you need?" Xia Bin casually put the cigarettes in his pocket and said with a smile:

"I have all the painting tools I need, so there's no need for us to stand on ceremony."

Yu Dazhang knew he would say that, but he still had to say the polite things.

To get people to help willingly, you must at least provide corresponding emotional value.

This isn't about social etiquette, but about how to conduct oneself in society.

"Another suspect I remember was a foreigner."

Yu Dazhang asked with some concern:

"But I can't say for sure which country the other person is from. The most obvious features are a high nose bridge and deep-set eyes. Judging from the skin color, they should be Caucasian. Will this affect the drawing?"

The characteristics he described are almost universal among white people, which is what worries him most.

If it were someone from China, they would naturally know how to describe it.

However, because he has limited contact with foreigners and has limited knowledge of their physical characteristics, he cannot provide accurate information about their features.

"I didn't realize you were so knowledgeable."

Xia Bin's smile vanished, and he said in a serious tone:

"If you are a beginner, you will think that the image of a foreigner is relatively easy to draw, mainly because the facial contours are clear and the proportions are obvious, making it easier to grasp."

He paused briefly, then continued:

"But if you want to draw foreign people well from an advanced technical perspective, you need to have a precise grasp of perspective principles, spatial hierarchy and color matching."

At this point, Xia Bin's tone became even more serious:
“Especially skin tone differences, such as light pink and yellowish-brown, need to be carefully distinguished.”

Finally, he sighed, looking like he had a headache.

"What should I do?"

Seeing his expression, Yu Dazhang became unsure and hurriedly asked:

"How about we don't draw that foreigner for now?"

He didn't want the portrait he painted to be too different from what he imagined; otherwise, it would be better not to paint it at all.

"Look at the person standing in front of you," Xia Bin pointed to himself, then asked with a smile:

Have I ever let you down?

Are you kidding me? Only then did Yu Dazhang realize that he was joking with him.

It's not that he's slow to react, but rather that they've never interacted like this before.

“What I said about the difficulty is real,” Xia Bin continued.
"But it also depends on who drew it. Let alone a foreigner, even if the other person is an alien, as long as you can describe it clearly, I can restore it for you."

As he said this, a fanatical look appeared in his eyes, as if he really wanted to take on the challenge of drawing an alien.

I love dealing with people who are extremely confident... Yu Dazhang smiled as well.

Only those with absolute strength can develop extreme confidence.

Just like going to the hospital for a checkup, some doctors can accurately diagnose a patient's condition with just a glance.

And some doctors always start by saying, "Get an MRI."

As the two were talking, the interrogation room door opened again, and Ye Zhiyu walked out.

"Okay, I guarantee he won't be affected by this hypnosis."

Ye Zhiyu looked somewhat tired, but his expression was relaxed:
“The whole conversation was just me recalling his appearance. I didn’t guide him to give any statement, not a single one. The surveillance video can prove it.”

Safety first, right...? Yu Dazhang was used to his cautiousness, so he just nodded and smiled.

"Thanks for your hard work."

He then called over Captain Xu and handed him the newly drawn portrait:
"Let's get facial recognition done. The accuracy is even higher than Xie Wei's previous portrait, so we should be able to find them all."

Captain Xu took the portrait without saying a word, but instead turned his gaze to Ye Zhiyu, who was standing to the side.

His eyes shone with fervor and longing.
