Chapter 380 Planning
"Under the premise of highly suspecting that this incident is a trap, we can first assume that the perpetrator has some means beyond the current level of technology that can meet the requirements of setting a trap."
Lu Ming did not explore what kind of means achieved this goal. He just used a "hypothesis" to cover the past in general.
This is a common method used by Lu Ming to think about the context of the case. That is to say, don’t worry about the details first, let’s figure out the overall framework first. Once the framework is clear, some details can be filled in later.
"Okay, then we can think about it now. To set up this trap, what kind of influence does the perpetrator need to exert on the parties involved?"
Lu Ming raised such a question.
Following Lu Ming's train of thought, Lu Qingliang, He Wei, and Zhang Dingshan in the video thought for a while. Lu Qingliang first said: "Control the time when the other parent gets sick. Make him happen to be facing Hu Shan's It’s time to get sick.”
The other parent is not that kind of hopeless lunatic. He just occasionally gets confused and is paranoid. The behavior of such a person is difficult to predict. Maybe even a beating from time to time will make him fine, but a look from a passerby may make him go berserk immediately.
To achieve this trap, controlling the time of his illness is the most important step. Without this link, the entire arrangement would be meaningless.
Lu Ming nodded: "That's true. In addition, we must control the teacher's behavior so that the teacher can make a decision to call the parents after noticing that the two children are fighting."
In fact, the teacher's behavior also has a certain degree of randomness. When faced with two children fighting, sometimes the teacher might be in a good mood and just turn a blind eye.
He Wei added: "We must also control the behavior of the two children so that the two children will conflict today and escalate to the level of a fight. Only fighting can give the teacher sufficient reason to call the parents."
Zhang Dingshan pondered: "If we want to be more secure, Hu Shan's behavior also needs to be controlled. He needs to have time today. He cannot be on a business trip or participating in some important work."
This is also obvious. If Hu Shan can't leave, then Cheng Lan can only go and deal with the matter. In this case, no matter how strict the other arrangements are, it is impossible for the other parent's knife to stab Hu Shan.
Lu Ming frowned slightly: "This involves the work arrangements of the leaders of Hu Shan's company. By the way, you can check this to see what the recent work arrangements are."
He Wei made a call and waited for more than ten minutes for a response.
"The company where Hu Shan works has been in the off-season of the industry recently. There is not much business and it is relatively quiet."
Lu Qingliang frowned slightly: "The perpetrator can't even control the industry's low and peak seasons, right?"
Lu Ming shook his head: "You are thinking too much. I think that if this incident is really a trap deliberately set, then it is precisely because it is the off-season of the industry and Hu Shan has more time that the perpetrator planned this plan at this moment. . If it were not the off-season of the industry and Hu Shan was busy at work, the ending of being stabbed to death by a madman might have been presented in other ways. For example, when he was going to discuss business, he met a madman on the roadside. "
He Wei had a slight understanding: "Yes. 'Stabbed to death by a madman' is the core. This is also the information displayed on the old piece of paper in Hu Shan's dream. The specific location and which madman was stabbed to death should be a flexible operation. Spatial.”
Zhang Dingshan said: "So, looking at it as a whole, to plan this trap, the perpetrator needs to complete the manipulation of at least the following people:
One, manipulate Dabao and Zhifei into conflict and fight;
2. Manipulating teachers to make parents’ decisions;
Third, control the other parent to make mistakes at the specified time.
After completing these three manipulations, the outcome of the incident can finally lead to the ending of "Hu Shan was stabbed to death by a madman".
So the next question is, how did the perpetrator complete the manipulation of these parties? "
It is almost impossible to figure this out at this stage. But Lu Ming also knew that Zhang Dingshan was not actually trying to figure this out, but was thinking about the ways in which the perpetrator might reveal his flaws during the process.
Lu Mingdao: "I believe that no matter which method is used to complete the manipulation, the first thing the perpetrator must do is to fully grasp and understand the information of the core party, that is, Hu Shan. Only by knowing his information and knowing his work Only by considering the environment, living environment and social relations can we formulate appropriate traps in a targeted manner.”
This is almost inevitable. If we didn't know enough about Hu Shan, how could we have planned targeted traps through Hu Shan's children, their teachers, and their classmates' parents?
If our previous speculation was true and this trap was really deliberately set, then the perpetrator did not know how many plans he had formulated before finally selecting this final plan. This means that his understanding of the core parties must be deep and comprehensive.
Zhang Dingshan nodded: "That's true. First, the perpetrator conducted an extremely comprehensive and in-depth investigation of Hu Shan's information."
He Wei thought about it and said: "I think that the perpetrator wanted to manipulate the behavior of the above three groups of people, and it is very likely that he also investigated and understood their behavior. Also, at the time of manipulation, the perpetrator was very likely to be far away from these three groups of people. It’s not far.”
Lu Qingliang interjected: "But it may also be some kind of remote control method."
With remote control, the perpetrator does not need to be at or near the crime scene.
Lu Ming nodded: "This is indeed a possibility. However, the crime scene and surrounding areas can also be investigated. Even if it cannot be found, we have no loss."
"Okay. Then the follow-up investigation is arranged like this. He Wei, go to the investigation scene and ask the parties involved to see if they had any contact at the time of the crime, or if there were any suspicious people around.
Lu Ming, go do some information research and see if anyone has collected information about Hu Shan and the other parties involved in the past. "
"yes."
The two of them agreed and immediately started taking action. Zhang Dingshan continued to stay at the base to deal with possible emergencies related to Hu Shan in real time.
None of them have forgotten that it is still October 8th. This day has not passed yet. Hu Shan still faces the risk of accidents.
Although we have made a lot of speculations and made corresponding arrangements. However, it is not yet certain whether the basis of these speculations is right or wrong.
When the situation is uncertain, it is necessary to be prepared.
Lu Ming had already contacted Lu Qingliang and mobilized manpower to form a quite large information analysis team.
The Planetary Security Bureau has a special establishment, and a group of information analysts are waiting for calls from various action teams. Any squad can call upon them at any time if it deems necessary.
"To fully investigate a person's information, we need to use both real-life and online means. In real-life, it's surveillance, tracking, eavesdropping, and the like.
Information on the Internet is divided into two categories: public and confidential. Public information can be easily obtained through search engines. Confidential information is stored in departments such as banks, hospitals, education, etc., as well as in various APPs and applications.
It is foreseeable that it is almost impossible for the perpetrator to obtain that part of the confidential information in the network through reasonable and legal means. Even if you can obtain information about a department or company through black-box operations, it is impossible to obtain all of it. If you want to obtain it, you must use means such as intrusion and cracking.
Looking at Hu Shan, the network applications he uses for a long time and with high frequency include the following. If you want to get his information, you should also start with these online applications. Then, focus on checking these applications. "
Lu Ming issued an order to the information analysis team. After that, Lu Qingliang began to contact the corresponding companies and departments, and the members of the information analysis team began to carry out relevant investigations with the assistance of each other.
After that, Lu Ming summoned a group of more experienced guards and began to investigate in reality.
The first one to be inspected was Hu Shan's home. In his home, the guards conducted an extremely detailed inspection, trying to find possible eavesdropping or surveillance equipment.
After that, there is the company where Hu Shan works - of course in other names, such as safety and fire inspections, so as not to affect the normal operation of the company and Hu Shan's normal life, and then there are the places where Hu Shan often goes, and the common transportation Tools and the like.
In addition to Hu Shan, several other key core figures also conducted similar detailed inspections.
In the busyness, the day of October 8 passed quietly. After 12 o'clock in the evening, Hu Shan, who was in a state of anxiety, finally breathed a sigh of relief and became visibly relaxed.
The old paper said October 8th. But now that day has passed, Hu Shan is still alive and well, not dead.
In Hu Shan's room, Zhang Dingshan looked at his watch and then looked at Hu Shan.
"Mr. Hu, for your safety, please continue to live here for a while."
Zhang Dingshan was now ready for Hu Shan's troubles. After all, many people are short-sighted. Maybe Hu Shan was like this too. Seeing that everything was okay for the time being, he thought he was safe and started making noises to leave.
But accidents usually happen after you lower your vigilance.
But this Hu Shan is obviously the kind of person who "takes advice". Faced with Zhang Dingshan's request, he not only agreed immediately, but also showed more caution and enthusiasm than Zhang Dingshan.
"I'm not leaving. I'm not going anywhere. I'm going to stay here. Until the matter is cleared up, I won't leave even when the King of Heaven comes."
"Yes, Ah Shan, listen to Chief Zhang, just stay there and don't come out. I take care of the family affairs, so you don't have to worry about anything."
In the video screen, Cheng Lan also immediately expressed his approval and support.
Zhang Dingshan was very satisfied with the cooperation between Hu Shan and his wife.
In this day and age, there are not many people who can handle things as clearly as Hu Shan. If it had been anyone else, they might have made a fuss about going out with excuses such as "no one is taking care of the flowers and plants at home" or "I have to go to work."
After appeasing the young couple, Zhang Dingshan left his room. Of course, the remaining guards stayed here and continued to protect him 24 hours a day.
"It seems that it really is not fate."
Zhang Dingshan thought silently in his heart.
What is destiny? What cannot be violated is called destiny. But now, in Hu Shan's dream, the information on that old piece of paper has been clearly violated.
October 8th has passed, but Hu Shan is still alive and well and was not stabbed to death by a madman.
In this way, the credibility of Lu Ming's speculation that the essence of this matter was a warning and today was a trap was once again enhanced.
The next two days were spent peacefully. On the third day, He Wei and Lu Ming's investigation finally came to an end.
In the conference room, He Wei looked a little distressed.
"No clues were found." She shook her head: "The surveillance data at the scene and surrounding areas are not complete at all, and it is impossible to conduct a detailed investigation. The person involved did not pay attention to whether there were any strange people around him. Among the only surveillance data , and no suspicious people were screened out.”
Lu Ming also looked a little solemn.
"The information investigation has yielded no results. No eavesdropping or surveillance equipment has been found in reality, and no suspicious information leakage channels have been found in terms of network information."
If no problem can be found with the resource mobilization and execution capabilities of the second operation team, it means that either the suspected perpetrator does not exist at all, or the perpetrator is hidden so deeply that conventional investigation methods are used. To the point where it's almost impossible to find.
These two paths are about to be cut off.
Everyone fell into deep thought. After a long time, Lu Ming said with some uncertainty: "Perhaps we can introduce other cases and compare them with each other, and suspects may emerge."
Lu Ming's thinking is that in this one case, those involved may not be able to tell which one is suspicious and which one is normal. But if other cases are introduced, and a certain person appears in the "background" of these two cases at the same time, then the degree of suspicion of this person will be greatly increased.
After all, how could things happen by such a coincidence? Wherever you appear, there are victims? Are you a disaster star? If it is not a disaster star, then you have to check whether you are related to these things.
He Wei thought for a while and said: "You can give it a try. Which one should you choose? Let me see, the closest case to the case at this moment... Well, the Wang Yong alcohol poisoning case. You can check it out. But, even Hu Shan's We don’t have much surveillance data on the case. Wang Yong’s case has been going on for some time, so the data may be even less. Don’t hold out too much hope.”
"Anyway, let's check it out."
"This Wang Yong is from another city. Then...Lu Ming, would you like to come with me?"
"Can."
Zhang Dingshan is still in charge here at the base, handling emergencies that may arise at any time. Lu Ming and He Wei rushed to another city overnight to start investigating.
