Chapter 539 Designation

Trap group.

Pang Jidong and others hid in the bushes, on tree branches, and under the dry well. There were disgusting insects under their feet, disgusting mosquitoes around them, and unbearable silence all around them.

When Pang Jidong's phone rang silently for seven or eight times, he noticed it, looked at the message inside, frowned and called back, and asked in a very low voice: "Wang Zhi?"

"Jidong, I just sent you a message. The three kidnappers have been arrested. You should clean up over there and send someone to investigate. The team can withdraw." The captain of the detachment said with a smile on the other end of the phone.

"Ah... solved?"

"Yes, solved. Jiang Yuan followed the footprints and pollen and found the community where the kidnappers were hiding. Later, he found the specific room where the kidnappers were hiding. When people rushed in, the kidnappers were still cooking noodles."

Pang Jidong's temples were throbbing, and his head seemed to be electrified. He passed by the dog, the bees, and the noodles...

"Did they catch the man just like that?" Pang Jidong reconfirmed.

"Yes, the kidnapper was caught. The verification is correct. We can withdraw the team."

"This...is this how cases are solved now?" Pang Jidong looked at Li Haochen, who was lying next to him and was covered in dust, and slowly stood up and said, "Then I will remove the arrangements here."

"Yes. Let's talk about it when we get back to the police station. You've worked hard." The captain also knew that Pang Jidong and others had 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 was solved, it would be good news from heaven. Pang Jidong's team set a trap but no one stepped on it, which was not a big deal. There is no guarantee that you can catch prey even if you set a trap in the forest.

Pang Jidong put away his phone helplessly, and said to Li Haochen next to him: "Let's go, the kidnappers have been caught."

Then, Pang Jidong shouted again: "Let's call it a day, the people have been caught, and they are all out. Two people, come and fish the brothers out of the well."

"Caught?" Li Haochen could only get up and look around: "It's a pity that such a good trap was used."

It was indeed a very good trap. If the robbers were caught, it would be a good story.

Pang Jidong also sighed and said: "The kidnappers and we probably feel the same way. They hid the hostages so well, but the hostages were pried out alive. They didn't even know that they were still cooking noodles in the room, and they died!"

"It's a bit outrageous, this forensic botany..." Li Haochen nodded, and couldn't help but recall the story of Jiang Yuan making pollen in his mind.

The whole story seems to be related to the suspect, but it is actually unrelated.

Solving the case without any contact with the suspects or even the insiders is completely contrary to Li Haochen's concept of solving cases. Since joining the ministry, Li Haochen has always been practicing going among criminals, solving cases with the criminals' thinking, using the criminals' relationships, and borrowing the criminals' power to solve cases...

In this kidnapping case, Li Haochen originally thought that he would have a chance to shine. What he didn't expect was that he witnessed a complete zero-contact case-solving.

Right in front of him, it was as if the wheel of technology was rolling over his face.

"Go back." Pang Jidong's mood began to become happy.

He followed this case from the beginning, and saw the parents of the two children crying and collapsing more than once. As a policeman, he was satisfied to be able to solve this case.

In the last link, the trap was not used, and Pang Jidong was a little disappointed, but overall, his mood was very good.

Moreover, the closer he got to the police station, the better his mood was. A few days ago, when he returned to the police station, he was always a little worried about meeting the hostages' families. Now, not only is he not worried anymore, he even feels like meeting them.

When he returned to the office, there was also laughter and joy.

From the director to the deputy director, there were also cadres from ministries and provincial departments, as well as detachment leaders and captains, all gathered together, as enthusiastic as if they were having a tea party.

In fact, this was the configuration. Everyone had a cup of tea in front of them, some apples and pears that no one dared to eat, and local cigarettes provided sincerely, and they chatted one by one.

The case was solved, the criminal was caught, and this was the happiest time.

Of course, it was also a very appropriate time to flatter each other.

In this regard, Comrade Huang Qiangmin was also very skilled in the business, and he entered the atmosphere in a few words.

Pang Jidong was the captain of the fourth team. When he came, he was the last one to accompany him. When talking about today's operation, he only introduced it a few words. It felt to him that it was a bit like a case analysis meeting, but more like a case-solving show-off meeting.

As they talked, everyone became interested in Jiang Yuan's forensic botany. The captain, who has been doing practical work for many years, said a few words and asked directly: "In this way, as long as there is evidence, can't we find the location?"

"There must be a rough range, but it's almost the same." Jiang Yuan said.

"Can you find it?" The captain asked again.

Jiang Yuan and Huang Qiangmin looked at each other and smiled: "Almost, I can't guarantee it 100%, but the probability is still quite high."

"Indeed, I saw that you were quite fast when you did it."

"Whether it's fast or not depends on the type of pollen and spores. Many pollens are still complicated to distinguish. For example, the thorns on the pollen grains are straight or oblique, and the spiral patterns 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 probably just laugh. But at this moment, Jiang Yuan has 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 "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 the 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 Luo Jinren would not be too happy if he interrupted the conversation so directly, but Huang Qiangmin didn't care either. If you don't dare to offend someone for such a small thing, how can you afford it?

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 in the office, also wearing casual clothes, sneaked into the elevator, and then 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.

Jiang Yuan heard what he said and drank from the bowl 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 down the bowl, my phone rang.

Jiang Yuan picked up the answer and 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 plan a project. 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 cases 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."

"It doesn't mean you have to use forensic botany, right?"

"Of course. What do you have in mind."

Jiang Yuan took a sip of the beef soup, smacked his lips in admiration, and said what he thought of, "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.
