Chapter 216 Reopening the investigation of an old case!

After Jia Dongming sent Master Lei and others away, he closed the gate of the yard, put the furniture sent by Master Lei into the system space, then locked the gate of the yard and rode his bicycle towards the steel mill.

When Jia Dongming returned to the office, he saw two thick stacks of files on his desk. As everyone knows, the golden time for solving a case is within 72 hours after the incident.

The cases recorded in these files are all old adult cases that have not been solved by the Dongcheng District Public Security Bureau in recent years.

In this era when technical means are limited and public security officers lack experience in handling cases, solving these old cases is as difficult as climbing to the sky for many public security officers.

Although taking over these old cases was like taking over a hot potato, Jia Dongming was a person who liked to accept challenges. When he sat down at his desk, he picked up the file on the top and began to read it carefully.

The case registered in this file is a theft and murder case at a grain warehouse in Dongcheng District three years ago.

One morning, when the staff of the grain station came to work, they went to the grain warehouse to transport grain for sale as usual. As a result, they found that the three personnel on duty in charge of guarding the grain warehouse were missing, and the grain in the grain warehouse had disappeared overnight.

After the grain station reported the case, the police officers from the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Dongcheng Branch rushed to the grain station as soon as possible, and found an office in the warehouse that was locked with a key.

When the people at the grain station found the spare key and opened the office door, they discovered that the three on-duty personnel were inside. However, one of them had been hit to death with a hammer, while the other two accused each other of the murder.

Since neither of them could prove that they were the murderer, and the police had no evidence to prove that they were the murderer, and the two were also locked in the office, the case has not been solved until now, and the two on-duty personnel have been treated as suspects and have been detained.

After reading the file in his hand, Jia Dongming had a preliminary understanding of the case. He muttered to himself, "According to the confessions of the two suspects, it was the deceased who suggested drinking together when they were on duty that night, and the alcohol they drank was also brought by the deceased."

"If my guess is correct, the deceased either knew the murderer or was an accomplice of the murderer. Later, the murderer killed him because of uneven distribution of the spoils. The only thing that puzzles me is that there were more than ten tons of grain in that warehouse. What kind of transportation did the murderer use to steal a warehouse of grain in such a short time?"

Jia Dongming couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think about it and put the file in his hand.

He put it aside, picked up another file and began to read it carefully.

The case recorded in this file is the case of a female accountant from the Sijiucheng Thermos Factory who disappeared with a huge sum of more than 10,000 yuan.

This female accountant is named Yang Nan. She has worked in the thermos factory for thirteen years. She is responsible for her work and helps the factory to withdraw money from the bank to pay wages. She has never had any problems. But this time she disappeared with a huge sum of 10,000 yuan. Did she abscond with the money, or is there another hidden reason?

A person who was serious and responsible about his work suddenly disappeared with a huge sum of more than 1.6 yuan. This reminded Jia Dongming of his previous life, when a female accountant from Hebei disappeared with a huge sum of 21 yuan, and her body was found under the cement years later.

Thinking of this case, Jia Dongming felt that it was very similar to the case of the disappearance of the female accountant by the river in his previous life.

In the case of the missing female accountant in Hebei, the person involved was named Li Yang, who worked as a cashier at the ZJK City Mining Machinery Factory. It was not easy to get a job in a state-owned enterprise at that time, so Li Yang cherished her job very much, was strict with herself, and never thought of stealing the factory's funds.

Because of this, the leaders of the machinery factory trusted Li Yang very much and asked her to be responsible for the salary payment of the machine repair factory. Li Yang never failed to live up to the trust of the leaders of the machine repair factory and always paid the salary to every worker on time. As a result, one time when the machine repair factory paid the salary, Li Yang did not show up. Later, the machine repair factory sent someone to the bank to find out the situation. The bank said that Li Yang had already withdrawn the money and left the bank.

Hearing that Li Yang had already taken the salary money, the factory manager was extremely anxious and finally went to Li Yang's house to try his luck. Of course, he found nothing.

At that time, Li Yang's husband Xiao Feng was the only one at home. He was anxiously waiting for his wife to come back. The two waited for a while and then decided to call the police.

After receiving the report, the police attached great importance to the case, but after a long investigation, they still did not find any valuable clues. Until 21 years later, when the area around the murderer's old house was to be renovated, construction workers found thick cement in the murderer's house.

At this time, some people were wondering why they were working with cement at home. It was not until the workers broke the cement that they discovered the body buried under the cement. At that moment, the case of Li Yang's disappearance was solved.

When Jia Dongming recalled the case in his previous life, he immediately thought of the disappearance of the female accountant in the thermos factory. He felt that this case was so similar to the disappearance of the female accountant in his previous life, so he decided to start with this case first. Then he put all the remaining files into the cabinet, took the files of this case, and walked out of the office.

Twenty minutes later, Jia Dongming arrived at the Dongcheng Branch on his bicycle.

"Deputy Captain Jia! Good afternoon!" Jia Dongming walked into the office of the Second Brigade. A policeman in the Second Brigade, upon seeing Jia Dongming coming, immediately took the initiative to greet Jia Dongming.

When Jia Dongming saw the policeman who greeted him, he immediately asked him, "Is Xie Jian here? I have something very important to discuss with him."

When the police officer heard Jia Dongming's question, he quickly reported respectfully, "Deputy Captain! Captain Xie is in the interrogation room! Please wait a moment, I will call him over for you now."

When Jia Dongming heard the police officer's question, he immediately instructed him, "Tell Xie Jian that I'm waiting for him in my office. Ask him to come to my office immediately."

"Deputy Captain Jia! What do you want to talk to me about?" Jia Dongming came to his office at the branch. Before he even sat down, Xie Jian ran into Jia Dongming's office from outside and asked him respectfully.

When Jia Dongming heard Xie Jian's question, he placed the file he brought in front of Xie Jian and said seriously, "Xie Jian! Take a look at this file first."

After hearing Jia Dongming's instructions, Xie Jian picked up the file with a confused look on his face. When he saw the contents of the file, he asked Jia Dongming in surprise, "Deputy Captain Jia! Isn't this the case from the thermos factory three years ago? How come this file is here with you?"

When Jia Dongming heard Xie Jian's question, he answered seriously, "Xie Jian! Captain Zhang plans to clean up the old adult cases in the bureau and asked me to take charge of this task. Now I plan to start with this case."

After hearing what Jia Dongming said, Xie Jian was shocked and asked, "What? Captain Zhang wants you to be in charge of solving this old case!"

When Jia Dongming heard Xie Jian's question and saw Xie Jian's shocked expression, he nodded subconsciously and answered seriously, "Xie Jian! According to the contents of this file, you also participated in the investigation of this case. Now tell me about your investigation process at that time."

After hearing Jia Dongming's question, Xie Jian responded for a moment before introducing Jia Dongming: "Deputy Captain Jia! The accountant of the thermos factory is named Yang Nan. She was 37 years old when she disappeared. She has parents, a husband, and two children. According to our visit, Yang Nan is a very serious and responsible person at work. So I personally think that Yang Nan should not be the kind of person who would abandon her husband and children for 10,000 yuan."
