Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer

   Chapter 22 One after another, Zhang Wei's investigation

   The second homicide occurred near the Central Ring Road of the Eastern Metropolis.

  Located in an apartment near a bar street.

   When Wu Yong and Lao Xing arrived by car, the apartment building had been blocked by people from the Wushu Association.

   "Team Wu!" After getting out of the car, the surrounding field workers greeted Wu Yong one after another.

   "Where are Ani and Tamu?"

   "They are already upstairs. The murder happened in room 403. The deceased was a woman!"

   "Then let me go up!"

   Wu Yong glanced at the 4th floor of the apartment and was about to leave.

   "Wait, who are you and how did you get in!"

   "We came with Captain Wu, we are our own people!"

   "Anyone, step aside without proof, this is the scene of a murder, you can't come in!"

   Hearing the conversation behind him, Wu Yong frowned.

   "The two of them were eyewitnesses to the first murder, and they came with us, let them in!"

   He was a little helpless, but he still gave the order.

   The field service had no choice but to open the cordon and let Zhang Wei and Xia Qianyue enter the scene together.

   "Thank you Team Wu!" Zhang Wei quickly thanked, and Xia Qianyue also followed.

   "Remember your identities and don't move after entering the scene!" Wu Yong warned, and he and Lao Xing guarded the two of them one after the other.

   The four quickly walked up the stairs to the 4th floor and entered the 403 apartment.

   "Well, there are a lot of small stone carvings, many of which are semi-finished products." As soon as he entered the room, Zhang Wei saw the small objects on the table, on the windowsill and on the ground.

   are all hand-carved stone carvings, which are almost the same as those in the room of the deceased Lumei.

   Zhang Wei can be sure that the deceased in this room is the sculptor, and the stone carvings of Lumei's apartment must have come from here.

   "Ani, what's the situation!" Wu Yong came to the scene and asked his subordinates.

  Ani is the black-skinned girl from the 7th group, wearing camouflage pants, with dirty braids, and even the amazing vest line and clear muscle lines can be seen under the tight T-shirt.

   This woman is definitely not weak!

  Zhang Wei made a judgment in his heart, but he didn't know how many times Xia Qianyue would fight against the opponent?

   "Captain, the deceased's name was Li Ping, an amateur carver. According to the forensic inference, the time of death should have been Saturday night. The fatal injuries were stab wounds in the chest and heart..."

  Ani began to report the situation, and Zhang Wei also saw the situation of the deceased in the bedroom of the apartment.

  The deceased was on his own bed, and there were multiple stab wounds on his chest. The bed was stained with blood, and there were signs of resistance in the bedroom.

   But unfortunately, the deceased was only a sculptor, and there was no force to bless her. Even if she resisted, it was futile, and she still died in the apartment.

   Zhang Wei turned back and looked at the entrance of the apartment.

   There is still no sign of forced entry, indicating that the murderer and the deceased also knew each other, and even the deceased put the other party in.

   Then, Zhang Wei's eyes were fixed on the carving workbench in the corner of the apartment.

   "This woman has also made a fortune recently?"

  Because he saw some brand new knives, while some old knives were randomly thrown on the ground.

  Zhang Wei was fond of handicrafts in his previous life, but he also picked up some small objects, so the origin of the carving knife can be seen at first glance.

  The old carving knives are made of stainless steel and belong to the public, but the new ones are made of emery and tungsten steel, and the price is relatively expensive.

  Stone carving is not a metal carving, and the material requirements for the carving knife are not high, even the hardness of the stainless steel carving knife is enough to polish.

   And looking at the signs of use of the new knife, it should have been purchased in the last week.

   "Why did a middle school chemistry teacher and a carver make a fortune?"

   Zhang Wei carefully walked to the door of the bedroom and glanced at the deceased, only to see that there were also tattoos under the deceased's blood-stained skin.

   But this is a famous bar street in the East, and the deceased did not have a full-time job, so tattoos are normal.

   "Hey, who are you!" Suddenly, Zhang Wei was photographed.

   It turned out to be the black-skinned girl Anni. After she reported to Wu Yong, she happened to notice Zhang Wei who was out of tune with the surroundings.

   "I was brought by Captain Wu, and I am someone who helped solve the case."

   "Assist in solving the case, just you?" Ani expressed doubts.

  Although her face was very dark, Zhang Wei also saw deep suspicion from the other's face.

   "Really, I am a good citizen." Zhang Wei quickly explained.

  Unfortunately, Annie could not understand the meaning of this sentence.

   "Ani, leave this kid alone and ask the forensics department if they have found any clues!"

   "Received, Captain!"

   Now that Wu Yong made the siege, Anni stopped pestering Zhang Wei and left quickly.

   "Where's Tamu, what about others?" Soon, Wu Yong found that another of his capable men was missing.

  Ani stuck her head out from the door: "Team Wu, I forgot to tell you, another murder case was discovered in the outer ring, and the deceased seemed to have died from a stab wound, so Tamu went first!"

   "What, we're still together!" Team Wu was stunned.

  We don't receive one case on weekdays. What's going on today?

  How come one after another, either there is no accident, or three people die in an accident?

   "Lao Xing, you also go over and meet with Tamu!"

   He hurriedly winked at the vice squad next to him, who went down even though he was a little reluctant.

   Team Wu's attention returned to the scene.

   "How was the deceased discovered and who was the first witness?"

   "Team Wu, this is a bar street, there are gangsters everywhere, and the murderer didn't lock the door when he left, so the body was discovered like that."

   "Did the witnesses know about the situation?"

   "I've been cross-examined, but I don't know. There's no surveillance in this building, so it's hard to say. But the people from the forensics department are already calling the surveillance of the nearby bar to see if they can find anything."

  Wu Yong frowned tightly, this case is tricky.

  If he guessed correctly, the murderer must have also worn gloves, and there will be no fingerprints left at the scene.

  If the surveillance outside does not find any clues about the murderer, then the case is closed!

the other side.

   Xia Qianyue, who was at the scene, had also joined Zhang Wei.

   "Zhang Wei, what do you think?"

   "Of course I see with my eyes, why not?"

   "What are you talking about, I'm asking you what to do with this case?"

   "Nothing!"

"what?"

   Listening to Zhang Wei's answer, Xia Qianyue was stunned.

   Didn't you say you were going to take me to solve the case, why didn't you care?

   "It's very simple. I suspect that Lu Mei and Li Ping have made a fortune recently, but we don't have the authority to investigate financial reports. How can we investigate?"

   Zhang Wei spread his hands and had no choice.

   This kind of thing that requires authority, only the martial arts association has, he and Xia Qianyue are just interns.

   "What you said is true, they all made a fortune recently?"

   Suddenly, Wu Yong came up and looked at Zhang Wei with a strange expression.

   "Yeah, look at the knives on the table, it's like a shotgun for a cannon!"

   Zhang Wei pointed to the discarded knives in the corner, "These are low-end goods, 2 yuan a handle, 3 yuan a handle, ten yuan wholesale price can buy a lot."

   He then pointed to the shiny new knives rubbed on the table: "These are different, let's talk about 30 pieces, tungsten steel grinding and finishing knives, even 50 pieces."

   "Captain Wu, think about it, how can an engraver who is used to using low-end products suddenly afford such expensive knives?"

  Wu Yong thought about it, and felt that the kid in front of him did make some sense.

   He pondered for a moment, then shouted to the door: "Ani, remember to check the financial records of the two deceased after returning to the headquarters!"

   "Received, Captain!"

   After Wu Yong finished his instructions, he looked at Zhang Wei: "Is there any more?"

   "Team Wu, it's your major crime team who solved the case, what else do you expect from me?" Zhang Wei shook his head quickly, saying that he really didn't have it.

   "What do you think of next time, tell me directly!" Wu Yong reminded, and went back to the bedroom again to examine the body.

   Zhang Wei strolled around the scene again, and then took Xia Qianyue downstairs.

   An hour later, Wu Yong closed the team.

  Zhang Wei and Xia Qianyue took the ride again and returned to the headquarters together.

  …

   Wushu Association Headquarters.

  The office area of ​​the 7th group of serious cases.

   When Wu Yong and his party returned, they found that Lao Xing, with the fierce-eyed team member Tamu, was already waiting here.

   "Lao Xing, what's the situation over there?"

Lao Xing pointed to the new photo on the evidence board and introduced: "The deceased was a worker who repaired vending machines, but this job was a part-time job, and he registered a fake identity with the trade union. We checked the information carefully and compared his fingerprints. Later, it was found that he himself has a lot of criminal records, provocative fights, theft, and armed fights. Anyway, he looks like a small gangster, and this record should not be able to find a full-time job, so he used a fake identity to find a part-time job."

   "As for the cause of death, it was also a stab wound, but this time the murderer was killed with one stab, and the shot was ruthless. At first glance, he was a trainee!"

   Wu Yong glanced at the photo, the deceased was lying in the corner of a dark alley, his neck was cut open, and there were traces of blood spurting on the ground.

   "Did you kill with one knife? It seems to be the second murderer!" Zhang Wei looked at the photo, a little surprised.

   This means that the murderer who killed the gangster in the photo is not the same person who killed Lu Mei and Li Ping.

   The third deceased obviously had rich experience in street fighting, but was instantly killed by the murderer.

   And Lu Mei and Li Ping are just two weak women, it is even more impossible to stop the murderer, why do they need to be stabbed more than ten times?

   There are at least two murderers, the one who killed Lu Mei and Li Ping was a weak chicken, and the one who killed the gangster was a master knife.

  Wu Yong also saw it, and wondered: "Are they two different cases? The third deceased is a coincidence with the first two. Is there any connection between the third case and the first two?"

   "I don't think so!" But Zhang Wei rejected Wu Yong's guess.

He walked to the evidence board, pointed to the mobile phone of the third deceased, and analyzed: "I changed a new mobile phone some time ago, so I deliberately searched for new mobile phones on the market. The price is about 11,000 yuan, and it is hard to imagine that a worker who repairs a vending machine can afford such an expensive mobile phone.”

   "My dear, the 11,000 mobile phone is enough for my two months' salary!" Lao Xing on the side was surprised, but Wu Yong gave him a quick glance.

   "Then according to what you mean..." Wu Yong then looked at Zhang Wei.

   "Team Wu, didn't you say you want to investigate the financial records, you'll know if you don't have a look?"

   After being reminded by Zhang Wei, Wu Yong remembered this matter.

   "Ani, investigate the financial reports of the three deceased and compare them!"

"receive!"

  Ani started to work, and began to query the financial transfer records of the deceased through the database of the Wushu Association.

   Soon, she found the problem.

   "Hey, 9500 was credited, and it was for three consecutive weeks!"

   For a time, everyone came forward.

  Zhang Wei saw the financial records. For three consecutive weeks, the three deceased were thinking about depositing 9,500 into their accounts at the same time.

   "Ani, can you find the source of the money?"

   "No, this is a cash entry. I can only find bank surveillance video of three deceased people making deposits at most."

   "Okay, watch the video and see if you can find any suspicious people near them when the deposit was made."

   Wu Yong was a little disappointed, if only the surveillance video of the bank was enough to solve the case.

   "By the way, why is it 9500? Is there anything special about this money, and it is still recorded for three consecutive weeks. What kind of business can have this kind of income?"

   A series of questions flashed through Wu Yong's mind.

   "It's very simple, in order to avoid tax, you don't need to fill in the income details!" But Zhang Wei spoke up at this time.

   "The bank stipulates that if the deposit exceeds 10,000 in cash, it needs to be reported to the tax, and even the bank will review the proof of income details. Therefore, many people will not deposit more than 10,000, just to avoid trouble. This is also the usual routine for illegal activities."

   "You mean, all three of them were involved in some kind of illegal transaction, and the transaction lasted for about three weeks, and they were finally silenced?"

   "Obviously so."

  Wu Yong looked at Zhang Wei. For the first time, he found that this kid seemed to have some ability. Not only was he able to analyze on the spot, but he also knew a lot.

   "Then what kind of deal do you think it will be?"

   "You ask me, who am I to ask?"

   Zhang Wei spread his hands, indicating that he was not a prophet.

  Wu Yong was disappointed, looked at the sky outside, and urged: "Since it's getting late, you two should go home early, if you know anything, remember to contact us!"

   said, he also took out 2 business cards and handed them to Zhang Wei and Xia Qianyue.

"alright!"

   Zhang Wei found the business card and glanced at Xia Qianyue, who was reluctant to leave, and finally pulled him up and walked outside.

   "Zhang Wei, I want to stay for a while..."

   "Aren't you causing trouble for others by staying? The serious crime team is so busy, you stay to increase their workload?"

   Xia Qianyue was still unfinished, but Zhang Wei poured a basin of cold water on it.

   "Zhang Wei, what are you talking about, I want to help the serious crime team take the pressure!"

   "Share the pressure, it's good if you don't put more pressure on them. This kind of thing is not something you can do as a newcomer!"

   said, Zhang Wei made a booing gesture, "You really want to solve the case, but you can go with me, I suddenly thought of some clues."

   "Really?"

   "Of course, but we have to investigate these clues ourselves, and the martial arts association may not be able to find it!"

   The two quickly left the Wushu Association and went to the neighborhood of the bar street where the deceased Li Ping lived.

   The sky is getting late, and the lights are beginning to come on.

  The bar street, which was quiet during the day, also became lively.

  Although there was a murder here, it did not prevent young men and women in the Eastern Capital from coming here to have fun.

In the back alley of the bar street, there are many gangsters with colorful hairstyles gathered. They are talking loudly with cigarettes in their mouths and waving their arms. class of civilized normative terms.

   "Brothers, do you know any tattoo masters nearby who are good at their craftsmanship?"

   Suddenly, a young man who was out of tune with the surrounding gangsters inserted himself.

   "Tattoo?" The gangsters reacted and looked at the person who came, "You kid looks at Sven and wants a tattoo too?"

"No way, I recently made a girlfriend, and I have to make up my mind. Little brother is thinking, why don't I get a name tattoo on my chest, and next time I flip my clothes, I will say that I will always remember you in my heart. superior!"

   "Yo, you're still taller, brother!"

   The little punks all gave thumbs up when they heard the young man's words.

   One of the gangsters leaned into the young man's ear and reported an address.

   The young man thanked him and left quickly.

  …

   Near Bar Street, in a small alley.

   Zhang Wei brought Xia Qianyue to the tattoo master provided by the gangster since childhood.

  Tattoo is not a serious business after all. Many masters have opened shops in small alleys, and they are said to be body painting.

   And in this industry, they all rely on craftsmanship to eat, and there are very few masters with good craftsmanship.

   Zhang Wei was also afraid that he would not be able to find a good teacher, so he thought of asking for directions. If you asked the Wushu Association to investigate, maybe the gangster would have run away when Wu Yong took out his credentials.

   "Zhang Wei, don't you want a tattoo?"

   "If it's a tattoo of your name, of course I would!"

   "Go to hell, who asked you to tattoo my name!"

   "Well, let's ask about the situation today."

  Zhang Wei walked into the store and directly found an older tattoo artist in the store.

   "Master, I want to ask, do you know whose handwriting these tattoos came from?"

   Zhang Wei took out his mobile phone and showed the master a photo.

   "This...is this a corpse?" The moment he saw the photo, the master was frightened.

  These photos were taken secretly by Zhang Wei at the murder scene.

   "Master, this is an art photo. Do you understand the art photo? At that time, they told the photographer that they wanted to pose a murder scene. I was also depressed, but I didn't expect the photographer to be professional, so I put it up."

   "The blood is all blood plasma, and the wounds are all the makeup artist's skills. You can take it easy. I just want to ask about tattoos..."

   Zhang Wei explained quickly, and the tattoo master breathed a sigh of relief.

   As you said earlier, I thought it was really dead, but it was actually art photography.

   But let’s not say that, the makeup artist and photographer are quite capable, and the blood doesn’t need money, and the photos are just like the real murder scene.

"Look at this handwriting, it should not be in our area. We are all good at new traditions here, but the tattoos in the photos are of old traditional styles. Today's young people like dark styles, add some ghosts, words, etc., they I don't like the old tradition anymore."

   "I remember someone in Chengbei District had this tattoo. Look at the real dragon in the first photo, and the carp in the second photo. The colors are bright and vivid. The tattooed person should have so many years of skill!"

   Listening to the master's explanation, Zhang Wei understood.

   Sure enough, starting with tattoos is still rewarding.
