1995, Starting as a Criminal Investigation Expert

Amidst the wailing sirens, the dilapidated Changhe police car belonging to the technical team sputtered out of the municipal bureau compound and onto the road.

inside the car.

Han Jianjun, the co-pilot, turned his head and solemnly reminded everyone of the precautions.

"He said on the phone that the scene was complicated. After the perpetrator killed someone and fled, passersby entered the scene to treat the injured. So you must observe carefully and pay attention to which traces were left by the suspect."

Once he starts talking, he just can't stop.

Li Shu was sitting on one side of the last row, his mind wandering, and he didn't hear what Han Jianjun behind him said at all.

Li Shu also came.

With such a big case and a complex scene, almost everyone in the team was mobilized, except for those who couldn't leave due to other commitments.

Han Jianjun also specially invited Li Shu and the other person, saying that they should broaden their horizons.

At this moment, Lao Qu, a colleague from the second row of the photography team, said with an incredulous look, "Lao Han, are three really dead?"

These words caught Li Shu's attention, and his heart sank again.

It is said that three people died at the scene.

"Damn, that's way too ruthless."

"Exactly, if you're going to rob someone, just rob them. Why kill them?"

"Sigh, three families."

The people inside the car were talking amongst themselves.

Li Shu was even more confused.

He suddenly turned his head.

"Guoxiong, are you trembling?" Li Shu asked Tan Guoxiong in a low voice.

Tan Guoxiong shuddered and quickly shook his head, saying no.

Li Shu responded with an "oh" and didn't ask any further questions, but he keenly noticed that Tan Guoxiong was grabbing his knee with his hand.

It must be shaking; it's from nervousness.

Li Shu was also nervous.

After all, it was my first time being at the scene, and now my mind is filled with those horrific photos from the school textbooks.

But beyond the tension, there was even more fear.

It's not that I'm afraid of the scene, it's that I'm afraid of making mistakes when I get there.

The school taught it, and we even had practical classes, but it's not real-world application.

This is such a big case; if I make a mistake because of myself, I can't afford to take the responsibility.

That's why Li Shu was afraid of this.

It's like after studying hard for three years, finally facing the college entrance exam and about to enter the exam hall; you feel a bit of an urgent need to pee.

Just then, Han Jianjun suddenly called his name.

Li Shu suddenly looked up.

Han Jianjun said, "Li Shu, Tan Guoxiong, this is your first time at a crime scene. Once you get there, follow Zhao Yong. Do whatever Zhao Yong tells you to do."

He gave a word of advice, then urged the driver to hurry up.

How did I manage to follow that car? I couldn't even see the backs of the huge convoy of police cars in front of me anymore.

To get to Yanqiao from the city center, you need to take Provincial Highway 229.

After rushing and driving for over forty minutes, finally turning right off the main road, we arrived at our destination.

This area is the town of Yanqiao.

The road in front of us is called Yanqiao Middle Street. Not far ahead, turn right again, and you'll reach Yanqiao East Street.

The Yanqiao branch of the credit union where the incident occurred is located deep in East Street, near Yanqiao Middle School.

Li Shu subconsciously looked through the car window at the shops lining both sides of the street.

One shop after another, it was bustling with activity.

Although Yanqiao is just a small town, it is quite famous in Nanjiang and even throughout the country.

In the 1980s, Yanqiao pioneered the "one package, three reforms" model, which launched Yanqiao's economic boom.

A large number of private enterprises emerged, making it the first township in the province with an output value of over 100 million yuan.

Yaxi Motorcycles and Meihuang brand wool sweaters are just a few examples of brands that have emerged from this small town and are renowned throughout the country.

On the third day of the third lunar month, there is a temple fair here, which is famous throughout Nanjiang.

Li Shu's home is in the Lihu District to the west, which is not far from here. He used to come here with his parents to visit temple fairs quite often, so he is quite familiar with this area.

A quick glance revealed many familiar places.

Now everyone probably knows that something big has happened over there, and many people are standing outside, whispering to each other.

As they turned onto East Street, even more people gathered. A large convoy of jeeps honked their horns as they slowly drove through the crowd and approached the police cordon.

The jeep in front came to a stop, and people jumped out in a flurry.

Shen Chuan carried a Type 79 assault rifle, looking menacing.

Meanwhile, the side door opened with a whoosh, as if a starting gun had been fired, and Zhao Yong and the others jumped out of the car in a hurry.

Li Shu was practically pushed off the car.

As soon as I got off the bus, it felt like I was back at a temple fair, with all I could hear was the buzzing of people talking.

And as soon as they got out of the car, all the onlookers on both sides of the road turned to look at them.

The feeling was like being thrown into the middle of a brightly lit stage, my hands and feet felt numb.

"Li Shu!"

Zhao Yong called out from behind, and Li Shucai snapped out of his daze and quickly helped unload the things.

Actually, there wasn't much equipment, just a few survey boxes, and Li Shu didn't have a chance to carry them. He could only take evidence bags, plaster, and other miscellaneous items.

"Stay close to me."

Zhao Yong carried a survey kit, gave a shout, and led Li Shu forward.

By the time they squeezed to the front, Xu Qiang had already connected with the people on site.

Xu Qiang personally led the team.

He had clearly made arrangements on the way here, and now Xiao Rui and the others have already started working.

The earliest emergency call was at 8:22 a.m.

At 8:27 a.m., colleagues from the police station next to the Yanqiao Township Government arrived at the scene on Yanyu Road, past Zhongjie Street.

First, the crowd was evacuated, a cordon was set up, and rescue of the injured began.

At the same time, Wang Benyi, the captain of the Criminal Investigation Division of the New Taipei Precinct, led a team to the scene.

Arrived at the scene at 8:38.

Upon arrival, they expanded the cordon and quickly conducted interviews to find eyewitnesses and confirm the direction the suspect fled.

Meanwhile, the New Taipei City Police Department reported to the city bureau, requesting a city-wide coordinated effort to block major roads, and organized personnel to pursue the suspect in the direction he fled.

The person in charge at the scene is Wang Benyi.

He was in his early thirties, with short hair and a slightly large nose, and hurriedly explained the situation to Xu Qiang.

As Xu Qiang listened, he looked around at the surroundings and then decisively said, "There are too many people. The cordon isn't long enough. We need to extend it further. Also, we can't leave out any eyewitnesses. I don't believe no one has noticed the suspect."

Wang Benyi nodded and quickly ordered his men to continue setting up a cordon.

Meanwhile, Han Jianjun was also greeted by a middle-aged man.

"Old Li."

This man is Li Mingsheng, the captain of the Technical Squadron of the New Taipei Precinct.

The two huddled together and quickly exchanged information about the situation.

Zhao Yong stopped, then suddenly turned and asked, "What are the principles of on-site investigation?"

Tan Guoxiong exclaimed "Ah!", clearly not quite processing what was happening.

Li Shu was similarly stunned. After a moment of hesitation, the answer popped into his mind, and he hurriedly said, "Stay still before moving, first..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Yong waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and then said, "The situation on the scene is chaotic, so don't run around. Just stay close to me and follow my instructions."

Li Shu nodded quickly.

Just then, the people in front dispersed, and through the gaps, they could see a clearly modified Jeep 212 parked about ten meters away from the cordon.

At the left rear door, there is a person lying on the ground with their feet facing you.

From Li Shu's perspective, he could see Li Shu's head lying in a pool of blood.

A huge patch of blood, bright red, so red it was glaring.

A feeling I couldn't quite describe suddenly welled up inside me.

While at school, Li Shu actually had close contact with dead people.

Or, to put it another way, a cadaver teacher.

Everyone was curious, so I tried to get close to the forensic students and secretly went to the morgue.

At the same time, during class, I also saw a lot of crime scenes and corpses lying in pools of blood.

But none of them have the same impact on an individual as this straightforward crime scene.

As I watched, I had the illusion that the blood was still flowing out.
