Almost before dinner, Han Yi suddenly received a phone call, which was from one of the police officers who had been transferred to assist Han Yi.
Soon Han Yi contacted the cutter, and the two went straight to the hardware store where the situation had been discovered.
When the two arrived, the officer was already waiting at the door, and after welcoming the two in, the officer gave a general account of the situation.
Then Han Yi nodded, and directly found the boss who seemed to be a little flustered: "Are you sure you sold this axe?"
The boss hurriedly nodded: "Yes!"
Be!
Be!
” "Then why didn't you admit it in the first place?"
"Hey, what happened has nothing to do with me, I'm just a seller, you can't mistake someone."
"Officer Han, I didn't admit this guy when I first came to ask, I was about to leave, but I caught a glimpse of the familiar axes in the corner of his shop, and if I looked closely, it was that kind of long-handled axe, so I suspected that he had something to do with the homigre."
Han Yi nodded, and then asked again: "I didn't say that you were a murderer, as long as you cooperate with our investigation, I guarantee that you are fine, but if you dare to play tricks, then you will live in it for me in the next life."
The man nodded hurriedly: "I just didn't dare to admit it because I was afraid, now you say it, police officer, I know everything and tell you." ” "Xiao Zhang, record all his words," Han Yi instructed the police officer next to him.
After watching the police officer next to him skillfully take out his notebook and pen, Han Yi began his interrogation.
"How many of these axes have you sold here?"
"Twenty-seven, you see, the records are here," said the boss, handing over a ledger.
Han Yi looked at the account book and came to the door to clearly record the buying and selling of various items, but he directly turned to the trading of this long-handled axe.
On September 17, 1986, six handles were received On September 17, 1986, 2 handles were sold, and 4 handles remained On November 4, 1986, 1 was sold, and 3 were left On December 15, 1986, 2 handles were sold, and 1 handle remained On August 17, 1986, 20 handles were received, and 21 handles remained On January 3, 1987, 1 merge was sold, and 15 handles remained Han Yi glanced at the calendar hanging on the wall, and then calculated the time on the ledger, this shop started selling this kind of long-handled axe on July 17, 1986, and now it is August 2, 87, so the middle time is almost early a year.
Then he took out the records of the sale of a stalk separately again, a total of 9 times sold a stalk alone.
However, these time intervals are very large, and he ruled out the days after March 97, after all, the autopsy time was there, and the axe bought after the crime obviously would not be a tool for the crime.
This time, only 3 single-handle axe transactions came into Han Yi's sight, and the time of these three transactions made Han Yi lock in the time between November and January, that is, within 3 months.
Then Han Yi and the three of them went back to the police station directly with the notebook, and then began to investigate, they began to investigate the computer records, looking through the missing persons in Shangsan County in the past three months.
It was already dark, and Han Yi and the cutter, who had not eaten dinner, looked at the 15 missing people who appeared in the city from November to March arranged on the computer, and fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, a police officer broke into the office of the two men with a report: "Officer Han, Officer Li, the results are compared, and there is no one who matches the deceased among the fifteen missing people."
Han Yi glanced at the result report, and then said: "Expand the scope, if the three counties of Shang are not good, they will be in the city of Sunset, and if the city of Sunset is not good, they will be in the whole country, and the data will be counted for me." ” Hearing Han Yi's order, the policeman's face also became extremely bad, but he still nodded, after all, he had been taken care of by the superiors and must resolutely cooperate with the mission, so he endured it.
"The deceased should not be from Shangsan County, after all, they have all been compared, I'm afraid that it's not even from Xiyang City, but a foreign population, so it's troublesome to find it."
The cutter was also a little depressed and said, this case is indeed difficult to investigate, and originally found a glimmer of hope, but if the deceased is not a local, then the country is so big, where to find it.
"I considered the possibility that the deceased was not from Shangsan County, or even from Xiyang City, but a foreigner living here, and the murderer felt that the identity of that person might be revealed from his clothes, so he took away his clothes and stuffed the body into the well."
"Then you still let him go and find it", the cutter looked at Han Yi a little speechlessly.
"This data will definitely be of some use, anyway, you don't need to contribute", Han Yi squinted his eyes and said.
"Tomorrow, the seven of us will investigate the 15 missing people and see if there are any clues on these people."
The cutter was stunned for a moment: "Didn't you say that these 15 people and the deceased did not match at all, why should they be investigated?"
” "If you want to find clues from the deceased, it's basically a dead end, and then check the missing people in the neighborhood to see if there is any connection."
The cutter nodded helplessly: "Let's do it first, maybe when the nationwide comparison data comes out tomorrow, maybe there is a glimmer of opportunity."
Looking at Han Yi, who had no clues, but was still calm, the cutter was also a little helpless, but he was also glad to have found Han Yi, if it was him, he was really helpless for this kind of task.
He even knew that there were many people with high IQs like Han Yi in the second act world, who were called wise men and belonged to the status of military advisors in the team.
They exist to deal with all kinds of weird and bizarre tasks, but they can be called wise men, and they are also very few in the second act.
The two hurriedly went out to eat and then returned to the police station, and the next day, the seven set off again to investigate information about the 15 missing people in Shangsan County.
After the day's investigation, everyone gathered together in the conference room of the police station, and the clerk who was instructed by Han Yi to investigate the data also handed over a data comparison table to Han Yi with black circles under his eyes.
However, to the disappointment of both Han Yi and the cutter, after the seven people compared all the tables in this stack, they did not find any missing persons who wanted to match the deceased, so it is very likely that the missing person did not report to the public security.
This suddenly made the whole case fall into a clue again, looking at the listless few people, Han Yi couldn't help but knock on the table twice, and then said: "Is there any special circumstance in the investigation of missing persons today?"
Several people present immediately spread their hands, indicating that they had found nothing and had not found anything abnormal.
However, Xiao Zhang, who found the hardware store, raised his hand, and after seeing Han Yi nodding, he began to tell about today's discovery.
"One of the missing people I investigated today is called "Sun Ji", a native of Changsun Village, he is 163 tall, thin and small, obviously not the murderer, after all, the murderer is 183 tall, quite burly, not he can be subdued, but there is a very strange thing before he disappeared. ”
