Chapter 53 Analysis (3)

  Analysis

  "Uh-huh." Yuan Fei nodded, then handed the data he had recorded while watching the video to Shen Yi, and began his report. "Firstly, there are surveillance videos from Shuxiangyuan community. There were several days when Xiao Ke appeared in the videos."

  "On November 13th at 9:12, Xiao Ke walked into the Shu Xiang Yuan neighborhood and left at 9:27. On November 16th at 10:28, Xiao Ke entered the Shu Xiang Yuan neighborhood again and left at 10:38. Both times he was alone when entering and leaving the neighborhood, staying inside for 15 minutes on the first occasion and 9 minutes on the second. When he left the neighborhood the second time, there were three people in front of and behind him: Ge Tianyu was the first, a woman who is not recognized was the second, and Xiao Ke was the third."

  "Specifically speaking." Shen Yu put down the data, crossed his hands under his chin, and stared straight at Yuan Fei.

  "Okay." Yuan Fei continued, "Ge Tianyu's video was sent to the hall on November 16th in the morning, and then entered the surveillance range of Shuxiangyuan Gate at 10:36 on the same day. Next to enter the surveillance range was a girl who had never been seen before, although she had not been seen among the people related to the case before, but from her demeanor, it can be inferred that she was following Ge Tianyu out, so this girl should be associated with Ge Tianyu. Following last was Xiao Ke, she also followed Ge Tianyu out, we speculate that Ge Tianyu was staying in Shuxiangyuan community before. Although the address she filled in at school is not Shuxiangyuan, but at least during this period of time, she was staying in this community, and there should be people associated with her, perhaps we can boldly suspect that girl who had never been seen before."

  "Not bad, continue." Shen Yu said.

  Yuan Fei rubbed his head, "From the surveillance video, it can be seen that Ge Tianyu's clothes on that day were inconsistent with the clothing in the suicide video sent to the hall. Moreover, there is a problem with the time. If we had investigated the surveillance video of Shuxiang Garden earlier, we wouldn't have mobilized so many people by the river."

  "An earlier investigation of the video?" Shen Yu raised an eyebrow, "I'm afraid it won't be that early. Every step we take is carefully calculated by someone, now what's the point of saying let's investigate the surveillance video of Xiangxiang Garden earlier? Don't forget how we got the information about Xiao Ke."

  Yuan Fei fell silent for a moment. Indeed, it seemed that someone had set up the scene from the very beginning. Even though Ge Tianyu's suicide video now appeared to have many flaws, at first glance, there was no way to make any judgment about it. Therefore, they could only send personnel from the hall to investigate. After the news of Ge Tianyu's "suicide" spread and everyone knew that he was the sole heir of the Yu family, they let Ge Tianyu make a high-profile appearance at the Yu Real Estate Company's annual dinner party, stunning the audience with his dance moves. This attracted the attention of Yin Changjing, deputy police chief, and Shen Yi, police monitor. It was only natural that Xiao Ke would appear in front of people, providing investigators with a new lead. If it weren't for Shen Yi and Liao Xinxin running into Xiao Ke on the street once and deducing the connection to Shuxiangyuan later on, he thought that the person behind the scenes would also provide them with clues to infer the importance of Shuxiangyuan at the necessary time.

  "Not bad." Shen Yu put down his hand, "It seems that you have figured it out. The clues we got now are like this, or maybe the mastermind deliberately revealed them to us from the document sent by the Ministry of Public Security"

  Quiet and serene master, little cute disciple, interesting pavilion

  Two things, Chairman Yu's inconsistent statements before and after the incident, made us start to suspect that there was an inside story in this case and we began to follow up on it with all our might.

  The video file of Ge Tianyu's suicide, with the help of fake-but-real video technology, successfully led to an increase in manpower for the Public Security Bureau to follow up on the case, making it the most talked-about topic in the entire city. This led many people to flock to Yu's family anniversary dinner, and then Ge Tianyu's high-profile appearance conveyed a lot of information, while also bringing Xiao Ke into our line of sight. The subsequent Book Fragrance Villa recording continued to give us some clues.

  "Although it seems like everything is going smoothly as we proceed, upon closer inspection, all the clues are one-way and can only be inferred in a single direction from front to back. For example, the relationship between Ge Tianyu's suicide video and the surveillance footage of Shuxiangyuan, because the person behind the scenes knows that we will only see the surveillance footage after watching the suicide video and doing what needs to be done. So they also know that even if there are many flaws in the suicide video, we won't discover them. Even if we do find out in the end, it's too late to make up for anything, and the previous suicide video becomes completely useless as evidence."

  "But what's the big deal?" Liao Xinxin struggled to stick her small head out from behind Yuan Fei, with a nonchalant expression. "No case can be solved smoothly anyway. Who cares about the mastermind? We just need to focus on our own investigation. As for clues, if they can continue providing them, that'd be even better."

  Shen Yu looked at Liao Xin's red and puffy face and her overly large eyes, and couldn't help but smile, "You're not wrong either, if cases like this were easy to solve, wouldn't that be boring?"

  The sunlight at noon shines into the office, bringing a warmth to the originally somewhat chilly room, and the indoor heating seems to have warmed up again.

  Shen Yu picked up the surveillance video that Yuan Fei had placed in front of him, and with his left index finger tapping on the table, he said, "Yuan Fei, first tell me about the general situation of the special case group's video. I'll take a closer look at the content later based on what you say."

  The surveillance footage of the task force only captured Xiao Ke twice, and there was only one car, which was a Buick parked on the main road near District C in Shuxiangyuan Community. The time matched the surveillance video at the community's main entrance. We roughly calculated the distance from the Buick to the main entrance and Xiao Ke's walking speed. The first time Xiao Ke appeared was on November 13th at 9:15 am, when he turned left at the first intersection of the main road, heading towards District C in Shuxiangyuan East, and entered the first unit door of Building C-12. The second time was on November 16th at 10:30 am, also entering District C, but not entering the building. Instead, he stayed in the green belt near C-12 for about six minutes before walking towards the community's main entrance with Ge Tianyu and another girl who came out of the first unit door of Building C-12 one after the other. Yuan Fei looked at his notes seriously and replied, "That's roughly what happened."

  "What's going on?" Shen Yu furrowed his brow.

  "Yes, although the surveillance video does not show the building number, we carefully looked at the layout of Shuxiangyuan and confirmed that the building where Xiao Ke entered and exited was indeed C-12, there's no mistake."

  "Alright." Shen Yu's mouth curled up slightly, "Immediately retrieve the resident information of Xiangxiangyuan C-12."
