Chapter 161 Reverse Thinking
Because he had to lead a team to handle the case, Min Xue's office had changed places, and he was no longer with Lu Qianbai.

Min Xue stayed up all night, and when he looked up again, he saw that the office had fallen asleep in a mess.

This crime, he didn't want to let people accompany him to work overtime, it's meaningless, and it makes people hate it.

Min Xue just felt that some aspects of this case had not been figured out, and he fell into deep thought and completely ignored external things. He did not expect the brothers to be so self-conscious.

Knocked on Cao Xiaobai's table, "The sun is shining!"

Cao Xiaobai raised his head with sleepy eyes, "Oh woo?"

If it was a Two-dimensional world, there must have been a big bead of sweat dripping from Min Xue's forehead, by the way, girl, can you not be funny?Think your steamed buns are still around?

"This, it's really easy to say, I'm used to it." Cao Xiaobai wanted to get his head under the table!It's usually Mantou who wakes her up, but she really didn't react!

"Breakfast is here!"

Cao Xiaobai was rescued by Peng Jitong's shouting.

As soon as the door opened, Peng Jitong, who was carrying several large plastic bags of food, walked in full of energy. This vitality was in stark contrast to the atmosphere in the room.

Peng Jitong distributed breakfast with a look of no surprise, and Cao Xiaobai hurriedly got up to help.

The voices of "Thank you Peng Ge" and "Xiao Peng are welcome" came one after another, and Peng Jitong immediately blended into the environment, what an old fritter.

At the end, Peng Jitong handed over a soy milk and steamed bun to Min Xue, "How is it? Did you gain anything this night?"

After taking a big gulp of soy milk, the warm feeling swept away the fatigue of the night, making me very comfortable.

Min Xue then replied, "I have some ideas."

Before I finished speaking, the phone rang, it was the office phone!

Min Xue felt that the clue was coming, so he walked a few steps quickly and picked up the phone.

As expected, the content of the call was indeed about the clues of the case, but unfortunately, it was not good news.

According to the murder weapon, the ax, the interviewers did find a hardware store in the nearby Sunjiaqiao Town. According to the owner, this kind of ax was bought in their family last summer.

All of them have been sold, but things like axes are not valuable items, and they will not record who they sold to.

And it's been too long, I have forgotten when it was sold out, I just remember it was sold out at the end of last year and the beginning of this year.

In a word, the clue to the murder weapon is broken here again.

After hearing the content of the phone call, everyone was silent, what the hell, why is there no good news.

Peng Jitong stretched out his hand and patted Min Xue, "Don't worry, I just finished surveying the scene yesterday, so there's no way to get results so soon."

A team member next to him stuffed his breakfast, and his mouth was not idle, "How can we not be in a hurry, think about it, it seems that Min Xue has never solved the case for more than three days!"

When everyone thinks about it, it seems that this is the case?

Brother Min is so awesome?Cao Xiaobai's eyes began to light up again.

"It's nothing!" Min Xue immediately stopped everyone's imagination, he was really afraid that everyone would come up with a gangster name such as "Kaishou Min San" on a whim.

And if this flag is really set up, the pressure will be huge!

"Didn't you just ask me what I had in mind?" Min Xue began to change the subject, "It was just a preliminary idea, but combined with the content of the phone call just now, I have a new direction for investigation!"

"Oh?" Peng Jitong couldn't help but thought inwardly, this kid really has some knowledge, and he has been thinking about this case, but now he really doesn't have any other ideas except to find the source of the corpse.

"Do you know the average height of adult men in the south?" Min Xue suddenly seemed to ask a digression.

Although Cao Xiaobai was confused, he still replied, "I seem to have seen similar reports, about 1.7 meters."

Then Cao Xiaobai had a flash of inspiration, "Brother Min, are you saying that the deceased is probably not a local? He was a foreigner?"

After all, the deceased was 1.8 meters tall, which is considered tall in the south.

But Peng Jitong thought it was a bit ridiculous, "According to what you said, there is no need to search for the source of the corpse in some cases, and you can know where the person is from just looking at the height."

Min Xue shrugged. He also knew that this argument was untenable, so he continued to analyze, "We are now looking for the source of the corpse, but we have actually fallen into a dead end. We might as well jump out and think in reverse."

"It is not difficult to see from the place where the body was dumped that the murderer should be very familiar with the nearby terrain, otherwise it would be difficult to know that there would be such a well in the barren field."

Having said that, everyone nodded thoughtfully.

"So I was wondering, could it be that the deceased was not a local, but the murderer?"

Hearing Min Xue's words, many people's eyes lit up, it makes sense!After adding this reason, even Peng Jitong could not refute it.

"But we have no idea what the characteristics of the murderer are. Even if we know he is a local, how can we investigate?" Cao Xiaobai expressed the doubts in everyone's mind.

Only Peng Jitong was a little uncertain, "The reverse thinking you mentioned just now refers to the murderer?"

"That's right, if a person does something bad, most of them will have some unusual actions. We might as well assume that the murderer absconded after killing, let's check it out!" Min Xue confirmed Peng Jitong's idea.

"We can also narrow down the scope to the period when the ax is sold out in the hardware store, so it will be easier to check! Isn't it Brother Min?" Cao Xiaobai jumped up and shouted.

Min Xue nodded, a child can be taught!

This trick of reverse thinking is really eye-catching. With the direction, everyone got rid of the sleepiness of working overtime all night, and started working energetically.

"Okay, young man, your brain is very active."

As a disciple of Bei Liantai, Peng Jitong did not show any thoughts of being unconvinced by the comparison, which can be said to be quite magnanimous.

But in fact, there must be a rivalry, and Peng Jitong secretly made up his mind to solve this case before Min Xue!

Min Xue didn't think so much, he just wanted to solve the case quickly.

This thing is like solving a math problem in school. If you can't solve it all day, it feels like a stick in your throat. Is this considered obsessive-compulsive disorder?Anyway, thanks to this, Min Xuecai achieved the title of Xueba.

After focusing on the missing persons in Sunjiaqiao Town and nearby villages and towns from last summer to the beginning of this year, the investigation was carried out quite quickly.

A day later, a clue came.

Just in Sunjiaqiao Town, there is a man named Zhang Shan who disappeared after leaving a message at the beginning of this year, which is very in line with the conditions set by Min Xue.

This is not over yet, the interviewers also found out that Zhang Shan sent a car for repair at the end of last year.

The problem is that this car has only been bought for half a year, and it is still in a brand new state, but Zhang Shan requires the whole car to be painted?And never picked it up!

Peng Jitong was speechless for a while, could this Zhang Shan be any more abnormal?Almost yelling that I am a murderer, come and catch me!
So this round, Min Xue had already won before he could show his skills?
