Lin Mo nodded slightly, wrote down the situation, and continued to ask: "How much do you know about Nanjing, the territorial divisions of various pickpocket gangs and forces?"
Yi Wenbin thought for a while and said: "I'm not very clear about the current situation, but it shouldn't have changed much from before. I still understand the general situation."
"Mark it! Especially the south of the city..." Lin Mo took a new map and a few drawing pencils from the side and motioned for him to draw.
Everyone did not watch helplessly. Based on the situation given by Yi Wenbin and the analysis of the two of them, they carefully sorted out the case.
The case began when the pickpocket was caught. For what purpose did the pickpocket gang ask him to commit crimes in places like the pier during those days and steal luggage and other items?
It should not be targeted, because nothing happened to the pickpocketing gang, and the stolen items should have been taken away by the pickpockets themselves, so the pickpocketing gang was not affected afterwards.
However, the case committed by the pickpocket should have caused quite a stir. The crime location may have been at the police station where Kuang Dacheng was located, but not in his area of responsibility, or in a nearby police station jurisdiction.
For some unknown reason, Kuang Dacheng was informed of the situation. Since he had just come into contact with the pickpocket, he recognized or guessed or suspected that the other party was responsible.
Later, due to the murder investigation, he learned that the pickpocket had been killed. He suspected that it was related to the other party's new case and realized that there was something fishy in it. So, like the pickpocket gang, he concealed the situation and investigated secretly in private.
He should also be aware of some other situations, otherwise he would not immediately take action after learning that the pickpocket was dead, and would regularly take a period of time to investigate.
However, during the investigation, he was noticed by the target, who turned to investigate him. The other party did not choose to evacuate for some unknown reason, but chose to attack Kuang Dacheng and pretended that his death was an accident.
Yes, Lin Mo suspected that Kuang Dacheng's death was deliberately forged. Although a cursory inspection of the scene showed that the other party seemed to have abandoned the body in a hurry, and the body might even have been washed into the Yangtze River.
But if the other party wants to save it afterwards, is there really nothing they can do? And the other party really turns a blind eye to the things they can see? And if they have made up their mind to destroy the corpse and eliminate traces, why bother to make it so complicated and not leave any traces on the corpse?
trace.
The most important thing is that destroying corpses and eradicating traces does not meet the needs of the other party. After all, if a police officer disappears and no one greets him, he will definitely be investigated carefully by the police.
What's more, being followed by Kuang Dacheng, the other party will most likely realize that there is something wrong with his identity. Since they choose to silence him, they will never want to attract the attention of the police or even the intelligence agency.
So! The discovery of Kuang Dacheng's body was definitely intentional, just to let them discover Kuang Dacheng's body and then identify it as an accident, thereby avoiding being traced.
The forensic and trace examination department also sent over a more detailed report. Generally speaking, it was similar to the preliminary analysis at Kuang's house, with only some additional details.
As a side note, during the mark inspection, after inspecting the clothing inch by inch, I found a few tiny hairs on the coat on my right shoulder.
The hair is entangled with the lint and balls from the clothes and has not been washed away by the water flow. The cross section of the hair is relatively fresh and has not been left for a long time.
Of course, the hair is not from humans, but from some animal. To be precise, it is the hair shed from animal skins that have been made into fur products.
Because traces of processed fur were found on the hair itself, based on the derivation of the case, it was probably left by Kuang Dacheng when he was being controlled and resisted.
The hair was distributed on the front of the left shoulder and was not found in other places. It was deduced that the enemy was probably wearing a pair of gloves on his hands, a pair of warm gloves with real fur.
Genuine leather gloves are not uncommon in Nanjing. The key points are fur and warmth. Although it is late autumn and there is some chill at night, it is not yet enough to wear warm leather gloves.
Of course, wearing gloves may have other purposes, such as covering up to prevent leaving traces, making it easier to administer medicine, etc., but Lin Mo prefers another one.
If you wear gloves very deliberately, you will naturally choose the most suitable and practical ones. If you just feel it is necessary but don't really care, then you will most likely just pick up a pair of gloves and use them.
Here, the latter is obviously more likely, and having such a pair of gloves readily available means that he is either using them now or has used them recently.
As for the Kuang Dacheng-related case, the murder of the pickpocket is most likely related to the luggage, and the luggage is naturally related to people who are away from home. Since the two people were involved in accidents one after another, people leaving Beijing or passing by are basically excluded.
That is to say, the assailant came from other places and needed to keep warmer than in Nanjing. Naturally, he had to go north. He arrived in Nanjing more than ten days ago. Taking into account the time required for the journey, considering the temperature alone, the other party would have at least
North China comes even further north.
Pingjin, Pukou, train station, first and second class carriages, sleeper berth, fur clothes, suitcase, slightly older...
Lin Mo listed down some key information in his notebook. Needless to say, Pingjin and Tianjin. If you don't start from there, you will most likely have traveled there.
As for Pukou, it’s just late autumn, and a few months ahead, it’s not too cold in the north, so it’s probably faster for the other party to go south.
So when traveling south for a long distance, there are only a few modes of transportation available, including railways and waterways. Waterways are divided into inland rivers and sea routes.
Naturally, the inland rivers are via canals, but there are no large passenger ships on the canals. There are only a few that run the entire route, or even part of it.
There is a boat, but aside from that, it doesn’t match the person’s possible disguise and identity, so it can basically be ruled out.
Taking the sea route, there are many large passenger ships, but they usually run routes between big cities. If you go directly to Nanjing, the big ships usually dock at Xiaguan, and then transfer to a small boat for such a short journey into the Qinhuai River.
Of course, it is also possible not to go directly to Nanjing, but to transfer to a small boat in a city such as Shanghai and then arrive in Nanjing, but this is also not consistent with the status attire.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Although it is not confirmed what animal the hairs come from, but judging from their small, soft and shiny characteristics, they are definitely not bad in terms of warmth and comfort, and they are very common species.
, these are all about money.
Wearing a pair of leather gloves like this, paired with matching outfits, taking a boat, or running from one big city to another, not to mention being suspicious and out of place will leave a deep impression on people.
Of course, he may have put away his gloves and changed his attire, but if he can be targeted by pickpockets, there must be some more conspicuous features on his body or the items he carries that attract his attention. He will be targeted in Nanjing, and even more so along the way.
.
Not to mention the same problems as before, the possible encounters along the way are enough to make him wary. The chance of being picked up by a pickpocket who is not very professional in this area is very low.
If a pickpocket dies near his home, it basically means that he has succeeded. This is why Lin Mo mentioned selling dirty things before.
These evidences can basically rule out the possibility of taking the waterway. On the railway, there are several classes of carriages to choose from, and issues such as clothing and identity can be used to decide which class of carriage to take.
The third class almost doesn't think about it. It gets cold after autumn. The Japanese will never suffer this easily. The gloves can be a small proof.
The reason why he caught this glove and analyzed it so much was that the information revealed by this thing was so rich. Just because it was not an ordinary item, it almost proved that the other party was not an ordinary spy.
Getting back to the topic, the probability of sitting in second class is not high. After all, the journey is too far, and the probability of even sitting in first class is low. After all, the journey is not short, so sleeper berth is more suitable.
As for the person, he probably got off the train at the Pukou train station and then took a cross-river ferry. However, he probably did not go to Xiaguan nearby, but took the boat directly to the Qinhuai River, and then something happened.
In this way, all the links are connected naturally. As for the fur clothing, it is a reasonable inference based on the gloves, the identity of the other party, the boarding environment, etc.
As for the suitcase, Lin Mo suspected that it had something special, that it was either noble or elegant. This was a reasonable inference based on Yi Wenbin's reminder that the luggage might be out of sight at the dock.
If you are older, it is a matter of status. Of course, you may also be very young. You may not know if the target has any special background or the like.
However, Lin Mo still prefers the former. After all, young people are more resistant to cold and frost, but there are still some doubts about the possibility that the other party will personally attack Kuang Dacheng.
In addition to traces, further autopsy examination also added another detail: the scars on the skin around the target's lips. After further magnification and observation, some minor subcutaneous bruises in the shape of crosses or tic-tacs were visible.
The forensic room's inference is that his mouth was covered with some rough or embroidered leather, such as a towel or a handkerchief.
This confirmed Lin Mo's judgment that Kuang Dacheng was controlled by inhaled anesthetic drugs, such as high-concentration ether.
It was not obvious at the scene. On the one hand, Kuang Dacheng was not killed immediately after being knocked down and controlled. The corresponding injuries had already recovered somewhat and were not too obvious.
On the other hand, the on-site conditions are limited, and the corpse cannot be taken to a well-lit outdoor area for inspection. In addition, the equipment and instruments are also very limited, so it is not possible to find the corpse without being discovered.
However, this situation only confirms the inference and does not have much practical effect, or it has no effect yet.
After several people discussed it, the distribution map of Yi Wenbin's forces was basically drawn. Crimes such as petty theft were too common, and pickpocketing gangs and forces, large and small, could be said to be spread all over the city and beyond.
Some areas are large, mainly in the suburbs and urban areas. Needless to say, the benefits in the suburbs are limited. As for the cities, the main reason is that the pickpocket gangs do not dare to go too far for fear of attracting attacks.
Although the gangs in the city are known as territories, they are actually very loose in terms of territory management. At most, they charge a small amount of money from outsiders who commit crimes, and they basically dare not let outsiders in.
The most chaotic area is the area outside the city wall to the top of the city, especially in areas such as docks and stations. The profits are huge, the government is not too strict, and there are a lot of pickpocketing forces, large and small.
