rebirth retreat

Chapter 66

At a turning section in the middle of National Highway 235 in City A, police cars were parked orderly by the side of the road. The temporary cordon divided the road into two areas. On the open space surrounded by the cordon, a car was parked. The car was distorted and deformed due to a strong collision. The trace inspector of the Rongling traffic police detachment was squatting in front of the car, using the tools in his hand to conduct further inspections on the car.

Suddenly, two more cars arrived at the scene.It was the vehicle of the criminal police brigade of city A, and it was Wang Hao, the captain of the criminal police brigade, the forensic experts from the provincial department, and Gu Liuguang and Yan Dongting who accompanied him.

After parking the car on the side of the road, Wang Hao and the others got out of the car, and immediately went straight to the center of the scene.Seeing this, Xu Yuan, the head of the traffic police detachment, hurried up to greet him.

"Wang Dui, Qin Fayi."

Without exchanging pleasantries, Wang Hao asked straightforwardly, "Is there any new progress?"

Xu Yuan led the crowd towards the accident vehicle, and said: "Our trace inspector carefully inspected the accident vehicle just now and found many traces of man-made damage."

Coming to the front of the car, Xu Yuancong squatted down, pointed to the wheels and said to everyone: "Look here, and here. There are obvious tool scratches on every screw cap and base, messy and fresh, combined with the car's Judging from the condition of use, it should have been unscrewed hastily before the accident.”

Wang Hao pondered: "It's also possible that the deceased unscrewed it himself. After all, she has a case in hand, and the possibility of committing suicide in fear of crime is very high." After a pause, he asked again: "Is this car hers?"

Xu Yuan's expression froze, and he shook his head: "The owner of this car is called Li Mao, and he is a friend of the deceased. He lent her the car four days ago, and he has not returned it yet."

Gu Liuguang asked coldly: "Could it be that Li Mao did it?"

Glancing at him, Xu Yuan said, "This possibility is not ruled out, but we have no evidence."

Seeing that the situation was about to reach a stalemate, Gu Liuguang couldn't help feeling anxious.

"Have you checked the car?" Qin Fayi asked, looking into the car.

Xu Yuan stood up and said, "I've checked and found no valuable physical evidence, but I've collected a lot of fingerprints. I've already sent someone to do an appraisal, and the results should come out in a while." After finishing speaking, he turned to face the Walking to the side, said: "Come on, I'll show you something else."

When they came to a position close to the middle of the road, without waiting for Xu Yuan to give instructions, everyone saw the dark traces left on the ground at a glance.That is the imprint caused by the friction between the tires and the road surface after the brakes are stepped on when the vehicle is driving.

Standing on the edge of the brake marks, Xu Yuan analyzed to everyone: "The car marks come from the south and disappear in the east, showing an arc shape, and the front is light and the back is heavy, which means that this car has arrived at this place. made an emergency turn and braked, and finally stopped at that position." After speaking, he pointed to the place where the car marks disappeared.

Looking at Wang Hao, Xu Yuan asked: "Captain Wang, based on your investigative experience, what do you think will cause such a situation?"

Wang Hao said in a deep voice, "There is someone or something blocking the way ahead."

Xu Yuan nodded: "This is a situation, but we carefully checked the road ahead, and found no traces of objects staying. Moreover, this brake mark is higher than the place where the accident occurred, that is to say, to prevent The only reason is the possibility of seeing a car accident happen and stopping in a hurry.”

Gu Liuguang frowned and asked, "What about the second situation?"

"The second situation is overtaking and intercepting." Xu Yuan said.

Overtaking interception?Hearing this word, everyone was shocked.

Wang Hao frowned and said, "But even so, it is impossible to be sure that the two cars passed by this place at the same time. There is no surveillance here, and there is no evidence that can be concluded."

"There is no monitoring here, but there are other sections of the road." Xu Yuan said.

"But the scope of this search is too big. Is there no way to narrow the scope?" Wang Hao asked.

A smile appeared on Xu Yuan's face, "We all know that there was snow in the city last night, and the snowing time was around [-]:[-], which was very close to the time when the accident happened. The time was [-]:[-], that is to say, during the hour from the accident to the discovery of the accident, there were no vehicles passing by on this road—at least in the direction of City G. There was heavy snow last night, What happens when no traffic passes by for an hour?"

"It's covered with snow." Gu Liuguang said.

Qin Fayi nodded in agreement: "So, this car can only leave this mark before it snows."

Xu Yuan continued: "According to the size and pattern of the tires, this should be a Feiteng brand A-7 car, not new, at least the tires have not been changed for a long time. With these evidences, I will send someone to Focused on calling all the monitoring on other sections of the road between zero o'clock and four o'clock, I believe it will be found soon."

Hearing this, Qin Fayi also had a smile on his face: "Team Xu is very efficient. I am relieved to understand the situation. I also found some problems during the autopsy in the hospital just now, but I still need to do more. Only through the anatomical work can we draw conclusions, and I will use your findings as a reference."

Gu Liuguang and Yan Dongting also breathed a sigh of relief.It seems that the cause of the accident will soon be revealed.

but……

Putting his hand in his pocket, and holding the key in his hand again, Gu Liuguang frowned tightly again.

But what is this key for?She handed it over before she died, is there any meaning?

Looking back at the deformed car, Gu Liuguang suddenly said, "Can I go and take a look at that car?"

Xu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and said, "Okay, just don't touch it."

When he came to the car, Gu Liuguang bent down slightly, staring at the keyhole on the door, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Yan Dongting walked up to him and asked, "What's the matter, did you find anything?"

Gently sliding the edge of the key with his fingertips, and making sure that the key does not match the car door, Gu Liuguang straightened up and said in a low voice, "I'm wondering which door that key is used to open."

Yan Dongting said: "That should not be a car key, but a door key."

Gu Liuguang said: "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

Yan Dongting smiled: "You didn't ask."

Looking at the two figures leaning together in front of the car, Xu Yuan asked Wang Hao: "Captain Wang, who are these two people? Why did you come with you?"

"They are the victims of the previous case of the deceased, and they all have an extraordinary relationship with the deceased." Wang Hao said.

"Oh? What's the relationship?" Xu Yuan was very curious.

"When did you become so gossip?" Wang Hao shook his head and smiled, "Let's see if there are any other useful clues."

After carefully walking around the scene of the accident twice and finding no other important clues, Wang Hao and the others planned to leave.However, at this moment, Xu Yuan's cell phone rang suddenly.

After picking up the phone, before Xu Yuan had time to ask, he heard excitedly shouting: "Captain, you guessed right! Sure enough, I found the clip of the two cars appearing together in the surveillance of other road sections!"

The quality of Xu Yuan's mobile phone was not good, and the content of the call was clearly transmitted from the microphone, and everyone around was shocked when they heard it.

Unexpectedly, there would be a breakthrough so soon, Xu Yuan hung up the phone excitedly, and said to Wang Hao and others: "Go! Go to the monitoring center! Let's go and see what happened on this road last night!"

Li County.

After completing the check-out procedures, Tang Qian walked out of the hotel with light luggage.Beside the door, the chubby hotel proprietress reluctantly waved: "Handsome guy, welcome to come again next time."

He said "definitely", but Tang Qian quickened his pace of leaving.Turning the corner in a hurry, I turned my head and made sure that the proprietress hadn't followed, then stopped, leaned against the wall and let out a long breath.

Stretching out his hand to fumble in his pocket, he took out the small card that the proprietress of the hotel had stuffed in his hand before leaving, with a look of dumbfounding.

"24 hours □□, Thai massage, mature young women, pure students, sexy girls..." Shaking his head helplessly, Tang Qian walked towards the trash can in front of a shop in front of him.When he was about to let go, he suddenly took the card back.

Gude was always talking about the special products of Li County last night, why don't you bring some back to him, this thing is so commemorative, isn't it?

Looking to the side, he realized that he was standing in front of a grocery store. A sly look flashed in Tang Qian's eyes, and he walked towards the grocery store.

"Boss, do you have any red envelopes?"

Seeing the business coming, the owner of the grocery store who was sitting behind the counter watching TV straightened up immediately, and greeted enthusiastically: "Of course, of course, what kind do you want? Relocation? Marriage? Or children's hundred-day feast?"

"The kind that says Gong Xi Fa Cai on the cover." Tang Qian said.

"Is it this?"

"Thank you." After receiving the red envelope, Tang Qian put those extraordinary cards into it in front of the owner of the grocery store.

Grocery store owner: "..."

After shaking the red envelope, Tang Qian bent his eyes and smiled, "How much?"

"One dollar..."

After paying the money, Tang Qian turned around and wanted to leave.At this time, a female voice came from the TV behind the counter:

"Hi everyone, this is the morning news of City A. At around 3:20 this morning, a traffic accident occurred on National Highway 235 in this city. A silver Toyota car crashed through the roadside guardrail and fell into the side In the cliff..."

City A?

Pausing in his tracks, Tang Qian turned around and looked at the TV screen.At this time, the camera just switched from the studio to the scene of the car accident. The female reporter of the TV station was standing in the cold wind, doing the on-site connection with a serious face.And not far behind her, many policemen could be seen busy walking around.

Suddenly feeling a little uneasy in his heart, Tang Qian took two steps forward, staring at the TV screen tightly.

"...We learned from the rescuers that the woman surnamed Gu died during the rescue process because of her serious injuries, and the traffic police are still investigating the main cause of the traffic accident... ..." the female reporter said facing the camera.

A woman surnamed Gu?Tang Qian frowned suspiciously.

Suddenly, a black figure flashed past the camera.Although it was only for a moment, Tang Qian still caught the trace and recognized it at a glance - it was Yan Dongting.

Why did Yan Dongting appear there?Wait, woman surnamed Gu, could it be...

Turning around and rushing out of the shop, he stopped a taxi by the side of the road, Tang Qian got into it and said eagerly, "Go to the station! Hurry up!"
