1995, Starting as a Criminal Investigation Expert

Today is the 12th.

The task force has not yet been disbanded.

Tang Weidong may curse, but what can he do? He can't really fire Xu Qiang and replace him with someone else.

However, after a full seven days of investigation, it can be said that the members of the task force had reached their physical limits.

I only get three or four hours of rest each day, and there's an endless cycle of staying up late.

Humans aren't robots; they can't withstand that.

The two men, carrying six sets of fingerprint card information, went straight to Xu Qiang's office.

The person is not here.

The task force isn't here either; they've all gone out to investigate.

He was found in the men's restroom.

He was squatting on the toilet, and had been trying for ages. He was constipated and just couldn't poop.

"Old Xu!"

Han Jianjun banged on the door, startling Xu Qiang inside, who dropped his cigarette and hurriedly asked what was wrong.

Only then did he recognize Han Jianjun's voice.

Han Jianjun continued knocking on the door, urging Xu Qiang to hurry up, saying that they had conducted a fingerprint comparison and might have found something.

There were too few distinguishing features, and the findings were ambiguous; he could only describe it as a discovery.

With a bang, the toilet door was pulled open.

Xu Qiang stood up, not even pulling up his pants, and asked anxiously what he had discovered.

As he spoke, he hurriedly fastened his belt, snatched the documents from Han Jianjun's hand, and exclaimed with delight, "They matched?"

Then he hurriedly walked out.

Han Jianjun quickly followed.

Li Shu was stunned. He opened his mouth, wanting to ask if Xu Qiang hadn't cleaned up his mess.

But this reaction is enough to show how anxious Xu Qiang is.

Li Shu quickly followed.

Han Jianjun waved to Li Shu and pointed at him, saying, "Anyway, it's uncertain. You know, it's a fragmented fingerprint, and the conditions are very poor, but Li Shu intuitively feels that it's this fourth person."

Xu Qiang glanced at Li Shu; his eyes were red and he had very dark circles under his eyes.

"intuition?"

He muttered something to himself and flipped to the fourth person's information.

The name Jin Zhenjiang immediately came to mind. After a slight hesitation, he said, "Never mind that, just treat them as six suspects and investigate them."

"You can check the income first."

He muttered to himself, "I don't know if the money in the armored truck has been touched, but they stole more than 20,000 yuan earlier. I don't believe they can resist spending it."

"And motorcycles, right, we can compare them with the motorcycles found within the last twelve hours. Jin Zhenjiang, I don't remember that name."

He muttered to himself as he strode into the brigade's office.

"Guo Wei, hurry up and get the motorcycle registration information from the previous twelve hours. Go next door and call someone over to show it to me."

Guo Wei, who was engrossed in the documents, stood up in confusion and asked what was going on.

Upon hearing that the fingerprint comparison results were in, they immediately perked up.

"Chief Xu, you found him?" He looked excited.

Xu Qiang didn't explain, but told him to hurry up and move the documents and call for help.

This case is now considered the top priority for the municipal bureau.

It should be noted that due to the egregious nature of the case, which resulted in three deaths and two injuries, even the provincial department intervened, asking whether experts should be sent to guide the handling of the case, and even suggesting that experts from the ministry could be requested.

The people from the second brigade next door came in droves.

Xu Qiang then called Li Shu and Han Jianjun to join him in searching the six results.

Meanwhile, on the technical team's side, Zhao Yong also led a group to manually compare the best results from the six feedback responses to confirm the feature points.

The news spread quickly; before they had even finished going through the registration information, Xiao Rui burst through the door with a bang.

"The comparison was successful?"

Lin Wanping's loud voice rang out from behind.

Han Jianjun looked up and said, "It's not certain. We've only come up with a few results, and Li Shu intuitively feels that one of the fingerprints belongs to him."

Lin Wanping's eyes immediately locked onto Li Shu.

He rushed forward quickly.

"Intuition, intuition is good."

He hugged Li Shu tightly, patted him on the back excitedly, and shouted, "You're awesome, kid. I trust your intuition."

Then he asked anxiously which grandson it was.

Xiao Rui had already found it; a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he tapped the table: "Jin Zhenjiang!"

Xu Qiang waved his hand, indicating that he should hurry up and help, and flipped through the registration information.

The result was unexpected by everyone.

Even Li Shu himself was surprised.

Xu Qiang had previously speculated that the suspect was most likely among the registration records from those twelve hours.

But no.

Not only did Jin Zhenjiang not get it, but the other five results also didn't.

While we were going through the documents, everyone present was as excited as if they had just gotten married, shouting things like they had finally found the grandson and that they had finally made it through.

They were all dumbfounded.

"How could there not be?" one person muttered to himself.

Everyone else turned to look at Li Shu.

Only then did they realize that they had relied on Li Shu's intuition, a complete novice.

The atmosphere was extremely oppressive.

Li Shu's palms started sweating, and he was stunned, beginning to question whether his intuition was wrong.

But that's just how it feels.

These days, my system experience is constantly increasing; this is practical experience.

I am still learning a lot of systematic knowledge, which is the experience and essence accumulated by younger generations over ten or twenty years of work.

Logically speaking, intuition can be trusted.

Why not?

At this moment, Xu Qiang spoke up: "Don't rush, I'm just speculating. How about this, call the local police station and find out the basic information about these six people?"

Xiao Rui realized what was happening, hurriedly got up, and ran to make a phone call.

"I'll play this one; I trust Li Shu's intuition."

Lin Wanping snatched Jin Zhenjiang's documents.

A resident of Maguqiao Village, Guangyuan Subdistrict, Chongning District.

Even if you get through on the phone, you have to wait; you need to find a police officer who knows about these people.

Wang Benyi also helped fight; among the six, there were people from their Xinbei District.

"What?!"

In the middle of the fight, Lin Wanping suddenly shouted, his eyes gleaming: "You're saying this guy's repairing motorcycles now? Are you sure?"

Upon hearing this, Li Shu suddenly turned his head to look.

Motorcycle repair!

This was a speculation I made at a previous case analysis meeting.

Lin Wanping was asking Jin Zhenjiang.

Could it be that my intuition was right, and it was him?

Xu Qiang had obviously thought of this as well. He quickly got up, turned on the speakerphone, and asked what was going on.

The voice on the phone said, "That's right, it's about repairing motorcycles."

"I forget what this kid was doing in Northeast China, but he got into trouble there and was sentenced to three years in prison."

"His father got into a fight or something and got hacked to death, so his mother is the only one left. I remember when he was sentencing, he would often come to the detention center to ask about the situation."

"I even helped him get his household registration done. I also heard someone from the neighborhood committee mention that he'd turned over a new leaf and was working as an apprentice at some shop, learning to repair motorcycles."

Upon hearing this, Lin Wanping excitedly nodded frantically at Xu Qiang, indicating that it was him.

Xu Qiang remained calm and continued to ask about the situation.

However, the institute is not entirely clear on the specifics.

At first, when someone has just returned from prison, there might be some attention. But since they haven't committed any further crimes, the level of attention naturally decreases.

After telling the other party not to make a fuss, Lin Wanping hung up the phone and rushed outside.

Xu Qiang quickly stopped him, telling him not to rush and to find out more about the other people first.

"Chief Xu, what's there to ask? I have a gut feeling it's this bastard. Look, he's been in prison before, and his accomplice is so old, he's probably someone he met in another place, someone who served time with him."

"And then he knows how to fix motorcycles, that all matches up, plus his height—didn't you hear him say he's 1.7 meters tall and of average build? That's it, it's him!"

As he spoke, he suddenly fixed his gaze on Li Shu.

He strode forward, grabbed Li Shu's face, and kissed him without saying a word.

Li Shu quickly dodged.

This person has been working too hard and has gone crazy.

Lin Wanping missed the chance to kiss him, then turned and pulled Li Shu into his arms, excitedly exclaiming, "Li Shu, from the first moment I saw you, I knew you were something special! You're amazing! How did we even match up?"

Li Shuxin thought to herself, "When we first met, you probably didn't even look at me properly."
