Law Enforcer's Handbook

Chapter 333 Crime Scene Investigation
It took more than an hour to drive from the compound of the law enforcement department to the location given by the other party. This journey spanned almost half of the city. The car drove away from the urban area until the outline of tall buildings disappeared from their sight. At the end, the loess on both sides of the road became the main theme, and the driver stopped at the side of the road.

"Just go here, the town is just ahead, just walk over there yourself."

No matter what the driver said, he was unwilling to drive any further.

He was picked up from the entrance of the law enforcement department's compound, and in front of him was the base camp of the gang members in District [-]. The high-intensity law enforcement force forced these criminals to stay away from the urban area and hide here.

He didn't know the purpose of the four enforcers here, he only knew that he couldn't let those people see that he sent the enforcers here.

"Row."

Valian understood the difficulty of the driver, so she paid the money and got out of the car without further entanglement.

A small town occupied by gang members is a perfect place for law enforcement as a team building place. Only Song Lan, who was worried, asked, "Does this place look a little unsafe?"

After walking a few steps, they encountered a pickup truck driving into the town.

The pickup truck has been remodeled. Several people in the car are masked, and there is a heavy machine gun in the back.

If you think about it with your toes, you can tell that the rest of this small town are some vicious people, the kind who draw their guns and fight if they disagree with each other.

Perhaps for all cities, all the outlaws gathered together will end up with the same situation.

Song Lan's heart was heavy at the moment.

Today is a sunny day, a good day that has not been seen for a long time. Such a good day should be spent lying on a chair in the office and enjoying life.

"Don't be afraid, they are all paper tigers."

Zhuang Chi said in a low voice, "Don't think they can't leave their guns, but in fact they don't dare to commit crimes at all recently."

When she went to the information department, she saw the statistics of the recent cases in the [-]th District. At this juncture, most of the people who dared to commit crimes were those who had never even heard of their names. On the contrary, these gang members were all arrested They dare not go out on their respective sites.

"The scammer cleverly took advantage of people's fear of gang members and specially chose the location of the assembly here. Those who paid the dues may be discouraged when they see the posture of this small town."

Except for Song Lan, the other three were very interested in this.

They quickly found the place mentioned by the other party on the phone. Not surprisingly, he himself was not here. What greeted them was an old house that had long been unoccupied. When the door was opened, there was a musty smell. Roger coughed several times, and the house was so poor that even the gang members didn't bother to commandeer it.

Several people found a puzzle left by Chen in a rather hidden corner, and this puzzle would lead them to the next location.

Maybe this will be a brain-burning process for ordinary people, but for someone like Valen who has been in the crime analysis department for several years, these puzzles are too childish. The town went around in a big circle, almost all the places where the gang members were entrenched, and finally led them to an old office building.

In the days when District [-] was first established, this office building once had a glorious history, and being able to work in this building was worth bragging about. However, with the arrival of the gold rush, big families and companies flocked to After entering the border city, people flocked to the current urban area. There are fewer and fewer people in the small town, and the office buildings are gradually deserted.

"This place looks like a haunted house at night. It's a good place for a secret meeting."

After Zhuang Chi stared at the building for a while, he gave a professional evaluation of this deserted building.

There were signs of people living in it, and some simple daily necessities were left in each room, but for some unknown reason, there was no one in the corridor at the moment.

They followed the last clue all the way to the top of the building.

That was the place where the manager of this office building used to stay. He had reached the pinnacle of his life because of this place, and he was also driven into a trough by the trend of the times.

The stately office can vaguely see the old days, there is a sofa at the end of the faded carpet, and a man is sitting on the sofa.

He seemed to be concentrating on watching TV, which was playing a period drama, which was the favorite program of retired old people in their sixties and seventies who had nothing to do, but judging from the man's black and shiny hair, he was still Far from reaching retirement age.

"Mr. Chen?"

Valen, who had been in touch with him in the text message, took a few steps forward and tentatively called the other party.

After taking a few steps, she smelled the smell of hairspray, and it was not difficult to see from the other party's clothes that he seemed to have been well-dressed for today's meeting.

For him, maybe this is the day that leads to a better future.

The man sitting on the couch didn't respond to them.

Soon, they realized the weirdness of this room—it was too quiet inside, only the characters on the TV were left chattering their lines.

After setting up such a cumbersome puzzle, the other party should have welcomed their arrival in a much more enthusiastic way.

Valian suddenly realized something, and she quickly walked up to the man.

Even so, the man didn't respond at all. He stared at the TV screen without squinting. He didn't seem to notice the arrival of Valen and the others, nor did he seem to be aware of the fact that he was dead.

The phone on the coffee table kept blinking.

There were constant inquiries about the Void Sect, and the last one he had read was an hour ago when he agreed to the "group buying" plan and informed the four of them of the meeting place.

"Contact the bureau, the man is dead."

Valen conducted a simple inspection of the body, "There was no trauma, no signs of poisoning, and no signs of a fight at the scene. This person died very peacefully."

She felt that this corpse must be hiding some secrets that they didn't know yet, because even if it was a sudden death, the deceased would often experience a period of painful struggle before dying. When their bodies were found, they were often curled up on the ground, Some people will cover their hearts tightly, and some people will scratch their skin because of excessive pain.

But there was no specific corpse. He was still immersed in the TV series, as if he had skipped the painful struggle and directly reached the result of death.

From the point of view of the Crime Analysis Section, all the signs at the scene indicated that the death of this person was accidental.

But the scammer who was still in contact with them an hour ago, full of ambitions, hoping to defraud a lot of money through this topic and make himself the pinnacle of life, just died suddenly and silently in this room.

Section Chief Snake once said that most of the coincidences are just that they have not yet understood the connection behind them. Valen has always kept the old section chief's teachings in mind.

"Someone must have been here before us, in this hour!"
