Pang Jidong and others hid in the bushes, on the tree branches, and under the dry wells, with disgusting insects at their feet, disgusting mosquitoes around them, and unbearable silence all around.
When Pang Jidong's cell phone rang silently seven or eight times, he noticed it, looked at the message again, frowned and dialed back, and asked in a very low voice: "Wang Zhi?"
"Jidong, I just sent you a message. The three kidnappers have been arrested. You can clean up over there and send someone to investigate. The team can withdraw." The detachment leader said with a smile on the other end of the phone.
"Ah... broken?"
"Yes, it was detected. Jiang Yuan followed the footprints and pollen and found the community where the kidnappers were hiding. Later, they found the specific room where the kidnappers were hiding. When people rushed in, the kidnappers were still cooking noodles."
Pang Jidong's temples were tingling, and his head was filled with electricity, passing over dogs, bees, and dried noodles...
"Are you arresting people just like that?" Pang Jidong reconfirmed.
"Well, the kidnapper has been caught, and the verification is correct. We can close the team."
"Is this... is this how all cases are solved now?" Pang Jidong looked at Li Haochen, who was lying next to him with a gray face, slowly stood up and said, "Then I will remove the arrangements here."
"Yes. Let's talk about it back to the police station. Thank you for your hard work." The detachment leader also knew that Pang Jidong and others worked in vain, but that was the case, and there was no need to emphasize it.
For the whole team, as long as the case is solved, it will be good news from heaven. Pang Jidong's team has set a trap but no one steps on it.
Pang Jidong put away his phone a little helplessly, and said to Li Haochen next to him: "Let's go, the kidnappers have been caught."
Then, Pang Jidong shouted louder: "Closing the team, the people have been arrested and are all out. Come two people and fish out the brothers from the well."
"Caught?" Li Haochen could only get up and look around: "What a pity for such a good trap."
It is indeed a very good trap. If the robber is caught, it will be a good story.
Pang Jidong also sighed and said, "The kidnappers probably feel the same way as we do. They hid the hostages so well, but in the end they were pried out. They didn't even know that they were still cooking noodles in the room.
Just hang up!"
"It's a bit outrageous. This forensic botany..." Li Haochen nodded, recalling Jiang Yuan's story of making pollen in his mind.
The whole story seems to be related to the criminal suspect, but in fact it has nothing to do with it.
The case was solved without having any contact with the criminal suspect or even the insider. This is completely contrary to Li Haochen's concept of solving crimes. Since joining the ministry, Li Haochen has practiced going among criminals and using criminals' thinking.
Solve the case, use the relationship between criminals to solve the case, borrow the power of criminals to solve the case...
In this kidnapping case, Li Haochen originally thought that he would have a chance to shine. What he didn't expect was that he would witness a complete zero-contact solution to the case.
Right in front of his eyes, it was as if the wheels of technology were rolling over his face.
"Go back." Pang Jidong began to feel happier.
He followed this case from the beginning, and more than once saw the parents of the two children crying until they collapsed. As a police officer, he was satisfied if he could solve the case.
In the final step, Pang Jidong was a little disappointed that the trap could not be used, but overall, his mood was very good.
Moreover, the closer he got to the police station, the better his mood became. When he returned to the police station a few days ago, he was always a little worried about meeting the family members of the hostages. Now not only is he no longer worried, but he also feels like he wants to meet them.
Back in the office, there was also laughter and laughter.
From the director to the deputy director, as well as cadres from ministries and commissions and provincial offices, as well as detachment leaders and team leaders, they gathered together as enthusiastically as if they were having a tea party.
In fact, it was just such a setup. Everyone had a cup of tea in front of them, some apples and pears that no one was embarrassed to eat, and local cigarettes that were offered sincerely, and everyone started chatting like a cloud.
The case is solved and the criminal is caught. Now is the happiest time.
Of course, it is also a very appropriate time to compliment each other.
In this area, Comrade Huang Qiangmin is also very skilled in his business, and he got into the atmosphere with just a few words.
Pang Jidong is the captain of the Fourth Brigade. When he comes, he will accompany the last person. He only introduces a few words when talking about today's action. It feels a bit like a case analysis meeting and more like a case-solving show-off meeting.
As they talked, everyone became interested in Jiang Yuan's forensic botany. The detachment leader who has been doing practical work all year round said a few words and asked directly: "In this case, as long as the evidence is there, wouldn't it be possible to find it?"
Where is it?"
"There has to be a rough range, but that's pretty much what it means." Jiang Yuandao.
"Can you find them all?" the detachment leader asked again.
Jiang Yuan and Huang Qiangmin looked at each other and said with a smile: "It's almost the same. I can't guarantee it 100%, but the probability is still quite high."
"Indeed, I saw that when you did it, you were quite fast."
"Whether it's faster or not depends on the type of pollen and sporopollen. Many pollen are quite complicated to distinguish. For example, whether the spines on the pollen grains are straight or oblique, and the spiral pattern on them can be from the plant family or the hawthorn family.
"If you are not familiar with it, it will take a lot of time to look up the information." Jiang Yuan smiled.
The detachment leader was surprised: "I can't tell... I heard that you have only graduated a few years ago. In addition to your forensic and trace examination skills, you also studied botany..."
"I'm considered self-taught." Jiang Yuan smiled.
If he had said this before solving the case, everyone would have just laughed it off. But at this moment, Jiang Yuan had already solved such a difficult case and found the hostages with almost no other evidence.
, with such strength as endorsement, no one dares to underestimate Jiang Yuan’s “self-study”.
"If this is the case, in fact, for many previous cases, it may be possible to find new clues." The detachment leader said while looking at several directors.
The director and deputy director looked at Huang Qiangmin at the same time, and then nodded slowly to the detachment leader.
The detachment leader seized the opportunity and immediately said: "Captain Jiang, we happen to have a few cases here that should be of use..."
"Ahem." Huang Qiangmin interrupted the detachment leader and said, "Let's discuss the specific case later. It's getting late today, so we're going back to rest."
He knew that the people of Luo Jin would not be too happy if he interrupted the conversation so directly, but Huang Qiangmin didn't care. If he didn't dare to offend people with such a trivial matter, how could he afford a price?
The Luo Jin people could only say goodbye in unison, and their attitude remained friendly.
As for forensic botany, now we really can only hold it high.
On the way, Huang Qiangmin gave Jiang Yuan a few extra words of advice and started to answer the phone.
When they arrived at the hotel, Jiang Yuanzi went to take a shower, rest and change clothes, and Huang Qiangmin began to prepare to receive the guests.
It's a little later.
Xu Tian led people into Huang Qiangmin's room.
A quarter of an hour later, Wang Zhi also got into Huang Qiangmin's room.
Then several people from the office, also wearing casual clothes, sneaked into the elevator and entered Huang Qiangmin's room while looking around.
Several young men in the hotel control room watched this scene, the usual numbness on their faces slowly turned into a very new smile.
…
early morning.
The hotel's breakfast was lackluster, but there was a pot of beef soup that was fragrant.
The chef must have been warned. Seeing Jiang Yuan come in, he said with a smile: "Hello Mr. Jiang, today's special is beef soup without salt. I'll give you a bowl to try."
Jiang Yuan, who was looking at other dishes and felt bored, immediately nodded and asked: "Is it similar to Luoyang's beef soup?"
"Yes. I am from Luoyang, and my family used to make beef soup. I pay attention to a meaty, sweet and refreshing soup. There is no need to add salt to the beef soup, and there will be no peculiar smell at all." The chef said with great confidence.
When Jiang Yuan heard what he said, he took the bowl and drank it on the spot.
"Sure enough, it's really good..." Jiang Yuan smiled and nodded. He took two bowls at once and sat on the seat next to him. While drinking, he thought, in terms of level, this beef soup must be at the level of LV3 or LV4.
, if it were +1, I might really lose my tongue.
Moreover, the beef and vegetables in the beef soup taste very good, and it is enough to make a dish on its own.
After drinking a bowl of beef soup, as soon as I put the bowl down, my phone rang.
When Jiang Yuan picked up the answer, he heard Huang Qiangmin's tired voice: "It's agreed, let's get you a trace evidence laboratory first. The Song Bureau of the Ministry also agreed to come up with a project plan. We just need to recruit people here.
, the standards of the laboratory are also high, on par with those in Changyang City, what do you think?"
"I don't have any objections. Do you want to do the Luojin City case?"
"Well, that's how it is here in Luo Jin. To complete the backlog of three murder cases, they have to designate one. Two of them must be completed within one year, and all three must be completed within two years. I will send you the case they designated.
look."
Jiang Yuan then turned on his mobile phone and read the abbreviation of the case, and thought about it: "I have no objection to the other two. Should we decide on our own?"
"right."
"That doesn't mean you have to use forensic botany, right?"
"Of course. What do you think?"
Jiang Yuan took a sip of the beef soup, smacked his lips in admiration, said what came to mind, and said: "I want to find a case where the deceased was a cook."
The chef was bringing a soup dumpling over. Hearing Jiang Yuan's words, his body couldn't help but trembled, and the vinegar in the condiment bowl splashed out.
