Chapter 257 Blurred Back

Last year, Chen Yan had a similar discovery when investigating a ghost terror case.

In order to forge a criminal certificate of his absence, Zhang Xiaohu deliberately parked the car under the surveillance camera.

But the rear of the car was out of the surveillance range.

On the way, he opened the tailgate, left the car, and went to Langtou Mountain to push Yang Miaomiao's parents off the cliff.

Afterwards, he returned to the car and ordered takeout, further confirming that he had been in the car.

However, after studying the video himself, Chen Yan found that the gap between the wheel arch and the tire of the vehicle had changed.

This proves that the load in the car has changed.

This time, Chen Yan compared the height of the car body and the gap between the wheel arch and the tire of each passing car in the traffic light monitoring on the two roads and the traffic light monitoring at the intersection where the crime occurred.

Sure enough, anomalies were found.

Of course, this comparison is much more difficult than the last one.

At Langtou Mountain, the vehicle driven by Zhang Xiaohu was stationary in the video.

The gap between the wheel arch and the tire remained unchanged.

But this time, some of the vehicles were dynamic.

Most vehicles have time to stop at two traffic lights and wait for the red light.

So, it is relatively easy to compare.

However, there are still a few cars that stopped at the previous intersection and waited for the red light.

But at this intersection, they directly encountered the green light without stopping and drove through.

This made Chen Yan's identification work extremely difficult.

Chen Yan's brain was running at high speed, and the images of each car in motion were all broken down into frame by frame screenshots.

The images of the two intersections were cross-compared.

Finally!

Chen Yan found the problem.

The first car, a black sedan, had a license plate number of YunX125789.

The direction of Cuibai Road was from east to west.

At the previous intersection and this intersection, when the vehicle was waiting for the red light, the gap between the wheel brow and the tire changed significantly.

At the intersection where the incident occurred, the gap between the wheel brow and the tire was 3 mm higher than that of the previous intersection!

What does this mean?

This means that the vehicle's load became lighter between the previous intersection and this intersection.

There was another car, driven by the reporter Li Kangmin.

When the accident was discovered, Li Kangmin's car just drove under the red light, which was the blind spot of the surveillance.

The rear of the car was facing the traffic light control box and was not within the surveillance range.

The front of the car was facing outward, and a small part was exposed to the surveillance.

This car was not the focus of Chen Yan's attention.

However, after the scene was handled, when Li Kangmin's car drove away, it was compared with the car at the previous intersection.

The gap between the wheel arch and the tire of this car was 4 mm smaller!

Why?

Li Kangming was driving alone at the time.

When leaving, although the weight of the body must have increased due to being wet by the rain.

But, that little rain could cause a 4 mm change in the gap between the wheel arch and the tire of the vehicle?

Impossible.

Therefore, when Li Kangmin's car left, there must have been one more person in the car!

Check!

Thoroughly investigate!

After receiving the news from Chen Yan, Wang Min immediately arranged for someone to investigate in person.

Chen Yan arrived in Yuecheng only yesterday.

In less than a day, the key clues to the fire in Panshui Town Detective Team and Lin Gang's car accident were found.

The nature of the two cases was determined by evidence.

Now, the suspect vehicle was found in the video.

This is a major breakthrough.

If Chen Yan's inference is correct, then this time it is possible to find the murderer directly!

Why?

First, the car Yun X125789 came from Cuibai Road from east to west. Between the previous intersection and the intersection where the crime occurred, the vehicle's load became lighter, which means that someone got off the car halfway.

You know, it was raining at the time.

That road is in the wilderness, and there are no villages or factories around.

Someone got off the car on that section of the road, and the reason can be imagined.

Moreover, this time was just 20 minutes before the crime.

There was also Li Kangmin's car.

When leaving, the vehicle's load increased significantly.

Did the person who tampered with the traffic light control box at the time finally leave in Li Kangmin's car?

In front of everyone, he played a trick.

Also, if it is true, does Li Kangmin know this person?

Was he calling the police at that time unintentional or intentional?

One hour later.

Wang Min returned.

"Brother Wang, how is it?"

Seeing Wang Min appear, Chen Yan was excited.

If the other party really committed the crime in this way, then Wang Min would be able to confirm the other party's identity this time.

However, Wang Min's answer disappointed Chen Yan a little: "The driver of YunX125789 is called Wang Zhihao, a local of Yuecheng."

"He usually makes a living by running an illegal taxi."

"He has a memory of what happened on January 16."

That day, it was pouring rain, and there were a lot of people taking taxis on the street. Wang Zhihao had been running an illegal taxi in the city.

This point has been confirmed by Wang Min through reviewing the surveillance.

"At about 12 noon that day, Wang Zhihao picked up a customer and was going to Leigong Mountain."

"Because the journey was long and there were many passengers in the city, Wang Zhihao didn't want to go."

"But the other party gave him two hundred yuan for the fare, so Wang Zhihao went."

"However, the other party did not get off the car at Leigong Mountain, but got off the car a distance before the intersection where the crime occurred..."

This clue was basically broken.

It was raining heavily at the time, and the other party was wearing a raincoat and a rain hat on his head, and his appearance was completely covered.

Wang Zhihao was in the driver's seat at the time, and he just glanced at the other party through the rearview mirror inside the car.

I don't remember what this person looks like.

"But because the other party was generous, Wang Zhihao had a deep impression of this person."

"From the accent, he should be a local, male, about 170 cm tall, and thin."

Wang Min handed a USB flash drive in his hand to Chen Yan: "When Wang Zhihao picked up this person, he got on the car near the New World Plaza."

"I checked all the cameras near the plaza."

"I only found a blurry back."

Back?

Chen Yan inserted the USB flash drive into the computer and clicked on the video inside.

The angle of the video is a bird's-eye view.

But the distance is relatively far, and because of the heavy rain, it is very unclear.

On the side of the road, it was Wang Zhihao's car. The license plate number was vaguely visible, but not clear.

Chen Yan turned on the visual gene lock to barely analyze it.

The surveillance camera was facing the rear of the car.

A man opened the back door and got into the car.

Only a blurry back figure was left.

"Is it this person?"

Wang Min nodded: "Although the license plate number is not clear, there were not many vehicles in New World Plaza that day."

"Combined with the time, vehicle brand and body color, this car is Wang Zhihao's car."

"And this person is the person he took to Leigong Mountain at that time."

Wang Min did not have Chen Yan's abnormal vision and could not see the license plate number clearly.

However, based on the analysis and inference of the situation, it was still determined that Wang Zhihao's vehicle was.

Moreover, this video was also confirmed by Wang Zhihao.

Confirmed that the back figure in the video was the person going to Leigong Mountain.

"Is it him... who planned all this?"

Chen Yan muttered to himself.

A back figure, a very blurry back figure.

In the eyes of ordinary people, this back figure can't distinguish any characteristics at all.

There is no way. The back figure in the heavy rain is very blurry and ordinary people can't distinguish it at all.

However, in Chen Yan's eyes, this back figure is becoming clearer and clearer.

Although it is still impossible to restore the real back figure, it is still possible to recognize it vaguely.

"Why... this back figure... feels familiar?"
