Tian Li found the surveillance footage of the botanical garden on the afternoon of December 9th. With the exact time, it was easier to find.
Not long after, Tian Li pointed at the computer screen. "December 9th, at 2: 40 in the afternoon, Wu Jianglong left the botanical garden from the front door."
Han Bin nodded and said to Li Hui, "You and Xiaopeng go to Sihui Garden and see if Wu Jianglong got home after three o 'clock."
"Team Leader, the surveillance footage has already shown that Wu Jianglong left the botanical garden at 2: 40 in the afternoon. Why do we need to check the surveillance footage of his neighborhood?" Sun Xiaopeng was puzzled.
"From the surveillance footage, he did leave, but the wall of the botanical garden is not high, only about two meters. It would not be difficult for him to jump over the wall and commit the crime. Therefore, only by confirming his subsequent itinerary can we completely eliminate him as a suspect," Han Bin said.
"That's true." Sun Xiaopeng muttered and said, "If that's the case, doesn't that mean that everyone who went to the botanical garden is a suspect?"
"Of course, the suspects are not only Zhang Zihan's colleagues. Anyone who went to the botanical garden on December 9th, as long as they fit the time of the crime, is a suspect. However, most of the murders are committed by familiar people. Zhang Zihan's colleagues are the most suspicious and the easiest to investigate. After these people are eliminated as suspects, the scope of suspects will be further expanded," Han Bin sighed.
This was a lot of work.
Even though it was the off-season and it was a Monday, there were still many people who went to the botanical garden. Han Bin could only carry out a targeted investigation.
…
Four o 'clock in the afternoon.
Li Hui and Sun Xiaopeng went out to investigate.
Tian Li and Zhao Ming were looking at the surveillance footage of the botanical garden, checking for visitors who committed the crime at the time.
Tian Li was a more detailed person, so Han Bin was more at ease leaving it to her.
However, Zhao Ming was not so willing. Checking surveillance footage was the task he hated the most.
"Bang, bang."
There were two symbolic knocks on the office door, and the back door was pushed open from the outside.
Ceng Ping walked in with a man behind him. It was Du Qi from Team One of the Criminal Investigation Team Three.
"Any progress on the case?" Zeng Ping asked.
"There are so many things that I can only slowly sort out." Han Bin shrugged.
"Is your group lacking people?"
"Of course." Han Bin nodded and glanced at Lynch. "Why don't you transfer two of them over for me?"
"I don't have two, but I've found you a great general. One can handle three." Zeng Ping patted Lynch's shoulder and continued.
"This case is more difficult to investigate. I'll transfer Lynch over to assist your team in the investigation."
"That's great. I couldn't ask for more." Han Bin laughed.
"Team Han, please take care of me in the future." Lynch squeezed out a smile.
"We're already so familiar with each other, and we're on the same team. You're treating me like an outsider." Han Bin hammered his chest.
"Alright, you guys continue. I'll be leaving first," Zeng Ping said.
"Captain Zeng, don't be in such a hurry to leave." Han Bin hurriedly stopped him.
"What's wrong?"
"It wasn't just the people from Flying Fish Company who were at the botanical garden. The other tourists are also suspects. It's definitely not enough to rely on our team's manpower. I'd like to ask the local police station to help with the investigation," Han Bin said.
"Got it. I'll coordinate it." Zeng Ping agreed and left the office.
Han Bin didn't say anything else. Zeng Ping transferring Lynch over didn't seem like a random move.
Team Two was indeed understaffed, but before Han Bin could say anything, Zeng Ping had already sent the people over.
Han Bin was promoted by Zeng Ping, but Sister Zhao from Team One wasn't. She was a veteran.
To put it bluntly, if it wasn't for Han Bin joining Team Two and increasing their crime solving rate, it was hard to say who would be the team leader.
Han Bin didn't think too much about it. It was better to let Zeng Ping solve it himself. He couldn't interfere.
"Captain Han, is there anything I need to do?" Lynch asked.
Compared to his usual self, Lynch was more reserved.
Han Bin was even more certain of his thoughts.
Han Bin found him a table that he used before. "From now on, you'll sit here. I'll introduce you to this case …"
…
Knock knock … At five in the afternoon, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
Creak … The door opened, and a man and a woman walked in.
The leading woman was around twenty years old. Her voice was rough. "Which one is Officer Li? I'm Ma Chaoran, the anchor from Flying Fish Company."
Han Bin stood up. "Hello, my surname is Han. I'm Officer Li's boss and the person in charge of Zhang Zihan's case."
"Hello, Officer Han. What happened to Zhang Zihan? Why did you call us here?" Ma Chaoran asked.
Han Bin didn't hide it. "Zhang Zihan is dead."
"Ah, what a pity." Ma Chaoran sighed.
Han Bin had been observing him. "Why aren't you surprised at all?"
"That blabbermouth Zhang Gadan told me this morning that Zhang Zihan might be dead. The police are investigating hard, so he asked me to come and take a statement so that the police won't suspect me." Ma Chaoran shrugged.
"Since you already know, why are you asking?" Zhao Ming snorted.
"Zhang Gadan is full of bullsh * t. How can I believe him? I grew up under the red flag, so I still believe the police." Ma Chaoran smiled.
Han Bin turned his head and glanced behind him. "There's no uncle here."
"Haha, I didn't expect you to be so humorous." Ma Chaoran laughed.
"What's your name?" Han Bin looked at the man beside him.
"He's my assistant. His name is …"
Han Bin cut Ma Chaoran off. "Let him speak himself."
"I'm Fang Ping, Ma Chaoran's assistant." The man was not tall. He was in his early twenties and was quite handsome.
Han Bin nodded and ordered Tian Li, "Tian Li, Zhao Ming, bring Fang Ping to the lounge and take his statement."
"Yes."
"Police uncle, what about me?" Ma Chaoran asked.
"Sit here. I'll take your statement," Han Bin said.
"Alright." Ma Chaoran responded and sat down on the chair opposite him. Streamers were usually extroverted. Those who were thin-skinned would not be able to do this.
Du Qi turned on the recorder. Han Bin asked, "Name, gender, age …"
"Ma Chaoran, female. You should be able to tell." Ma Chaoran puffed out his chest and continued, "I'm 19 this year …"
"I'm only a few years older than you. Don't call me uncle. I don't want people to think I'm lying to you," Han Bin said.
"That's how I address you. If you don't like it, I'll change it." Ma Chaoran shrugged.
Han Bin could not be bothered to argue with him. He continued asking, "Are you close to Zhang Zihan?"
"Nope. She's the top girl in the dance zone. I'm just a loudspeaker. Other than my unique voice, I can't compare to her." Ma Chaoran snorted.
"When was the last time you saw Zhang Zihan?"
"At the entrance of the botanical garden on the 9th."
"Did you see her after you entered the botanical garden?"
"No."
"When did you leave the botanical garden?"
Ma Chaoran blurted out, "3: 17 pm."
Han Bin was a little surprised. Usually, when people asked about the time, they would think about it. It was rare to see someone like Ma Chaoran who blurted it out so accurately.
"How do you remember it so clearly?"
