In fact, spies could also be dead agents. Even if they were trapped in the capital, it would not matter as long as the news got out.
However, it is imaginable how difficult it is for the demon race to plant spies among the human race, so it shouldn't be that difficult.
Chu Zhongtian asked: "What does it mean that the criminal likes to approach from far away?"
Li Qingcha took out the map.
"Look at this."
She was referring to that route.
Chu Zhongtian understood.
"You mean, the end of this route is the spy base?"
"It's possible." Li Qingcha nodded seriously. "The first reason is, as I analyzed, the criminal likes to go from far to near, which shows that he is a person with a strong desire for control... demon; the second reason is that this place is not far from where Wang Quan was found; the third reason, you might as well think about it, when you decide to go out to buy things, do you go to the farthest store empty-handed and buy them one by one, or start from the first store and finally return the same way with a bunch of things?"
Obviously, the second one is more labor-saving.
Moreover, the prisoners bought bamboo joints and stole bricks, which were not light in weight.
A person who plans before acting will definitely choose the second option.
Li Qingcha said: "Of course, my speculation is only on the first level. Maybe the criminal is more cunning than we thought and chose to buy from a place far away from his hideout."
She was being modest on purpose to give others a chance to shine.
really,
"No." Chu Zhongtian shook his head.
"What is Lord Chu's opinion?"
"Don't forget Wang Quan's condition when he was found. He was vomiting a lot of blood and his clothes were stained red. Even if the criminals rented a carriage, they couldn't have taken him far away and then abandoned him. That would have been too conspicuous."
"That's true."
Li Qingcha agreed.
Chu Zhongtian couldn't help but feel slightly pleased with himself.
Mr. Siwei is very good at criminal law, but he is still a young man after all, and needs an old hand like me to help him get on the horse and give him a boost.
He didn't expect that Li Qingcha was more experienced than him and was in the atmosphere.
Chapter 89 Nine: Actually Nine
Li Qingcha drew a circle on the map.
At this point, the area where the criminals' hideout is located has been basically determined, and the next step is to check house by house.
Chu Zhongtian warned: "Be sure to pay attention and be careful not to alert the enemy."
If it were now, there would suddenly be a lot more couriers and water meter inspectors in this area.
Li Qingcha was quite confident in the detectives.
There are endless methods at the grassroots level. Investigation does not require sophisticated rhetoric. It is enough to choose the smallest flaw and the most appropriate excuse according to the situation.
There is a saying that goes, "It's easy to mess with the King of Hell, but hard to deal with the little devils."
In ancient times, although people were afraid of officials, they were more afraid of clerks. This situation also made it easier for clerks to handle cases to some extent.
The detectives responded and left.
The case has made a breakthrough, and Chu Zhongtian's pressure has been reduced a lot.
He bowed to Li Qingcha.
"I still have to go to the palace to report, Mr. Siwei..."
"Please."
The two left the morgue and parted ways.
Li Qingcha walked towards Yicuilou, not walking fast, because he was buying snacks and eating at Tianbao Wuzangmiao while keeping an eye on the chat group in the upper right corner of his field of vision.
She wanted to see who would be the first to communicate with each other.
Not long after,
"One: I heard there is progress in the case?"
"One: Number seven?"
tsk...
The temptation began again.
Li Qingcha smiled, felt that the timing was not right, and did not respond.
The others came out.
"Two: I also heard that Li Qingcha found a clue."
"Three: Why is it him again?"
"Five: I told you before, Li Qingcha is very powerful."
"Three: Stop!"
"Three: Are you a woman? Have you been secretly in love with Li Qingcha for a long time?"
"Five: I am a man."
"Five: Ah... I remember now! Number Seven did speak before, asking if we were boys or girls."
Li Qingcha: ￣□￣｜｜
Has number five just realized it now?
Will people become dull if they stay in a Buddhist temple for too long?
Li Qingcha couldn't help but shake his head.
However, seeing how quickly the second, third, and fifth reacted, I think they are also concerned about the big case in the capital.
After all, it involves spies from the demon clan.
at this time,
"Four: Li Qingcha is causing trouble again?"
"Five: Number Four, you finally showed up. You didn't show up when we were discussing Li Qingcha before."
"Four: Shut up."
"Four: What is going on?"
"Two: To put it simply, there is a case of a demon spy in the capital. Although Li Qingcha is not the investigator, he was asked to help because he is good at criminal law and provided a lot of clues."
"Four: You said, 'good at criminal law'?"
Seeing this, Li Qingcha curled his lips.
She could even imagine the teasing expression on Yu Youwei's face on the other side of the group chat.
"Two: Really."
"Five: Yes, there is no need for us to lie to you."
"Four:……"
"Four: Dealing with the demons is troublesome."
"One: The capital is under martial law. People are only allowed to enter, not leave. It shouldn't be too troublesome, nor too dangerous."
Li Qingcha raised his eyebrows.
Why are we suddenly talking about the degree of danger?
Men don't seem to be interested in this kind of topic. When dealing with an unsolved case that has nothing to do with them, men's first reaction is definitely to pay attention to the details of solving the case, because it is tense and exciting.
On the contrary, girls...
Is this number one the same?
Li Qingcha was in deep thought.
At this time, No. 3 changed the topic again.
"Three: I see that Number Two is about to make the arrest?"
"Two: I don't know yet."
"Three: Where's number one?"
"One: I just heard it from others. It depends on the person handling the case."
Both his words and his implicit reference to number seven.
Li Qingcha felt that it was time to come to the fore.
"Seven: I was busy with something just now and didn't pay attention to your conversation."
This sentence, intentionally or unintentionally, packages oneself as an investigator, or someone involved in the case.
"Five: What did Li Qingcha find out?"
"Five: He is very smart, right?"
Li Qingcha: ￣□￣｜｜
From now on, just ignore number five.
"Two: How's the progress?"
This is normal and you can reply.
"Seven: I don't know."
"Seven: Even if I really knew, I couldn't tell you. You have to keep it a secret, understand?"
"two:……"
"Three: You might as well not come out."
"Three: It's fun to tease people, right?"
One of them complained silently, while the other said it out loud.
Then,
"Four: Is this dangerous?"
"Seven: What's dangerous?"
"Seven: Li Qingcha's evaluation of the demon race is correct. "Those who are not of our race must have different hearts. If they are strong, they will be robbers. If they are weak, they will be submissive and disregard gratitude. This is their nature." How can the demon race still cause chaos in the capital?"
"Four: He really dares to say that..."
"Two: As expected of Mr. Siwei, these words make my blood boil."
"Four: He only talks nicely."
"Two: Do you know Mr. Siwei?"
"Four: He owes me a debt that I will never be able to repay in my lifetime. How can I not know him?"
Such a heavy resentment!
"Gu..."
Li Qingcha swallowed his saliva.
at this time,
"Eight: Is that demon spy going to be caught?"
"three:???"
"five:???"
Although the others didn't say anything, it seemed that they were just like No. 3 and No. 5, confused by the sudden situation.
"Two: So there are eight people."
