Chapter 302 - Chapter 302: Chapter 302: Case File Association (2/2)
Everything was far too simple, and there were no connections between them.
If he directly handed over the photo, Zhou Shengtao would definitely suspect something, and he couldn’t possibly expose the system, could he?
After briefly pondering in his mind, Chen Yu had a plan.
“Captain Zhou, this reminds me of a major case that occurred, where the suspect had severe facial injuries. Back then, it took dozens of portrait artists a lot of effort to draw a likeness of the person!”
Zhou Shengtao evidently believed Chen Yu’s explanation, as Chen Yu had hinted more than once before that he had looked over most of the documentation here.
“You mean to say, the criminal suspect we’re looking for has been disfigured!”
Chen Yu nodded, “It’s possible that he has undergone a full-body transformation, maybe even altered his bones, which is why the portraits drawn have resulted in depictions of over a dozen different people.”
Zhou Shengtao, too, grew excited, “How did I not think of this before! With this, the scope of our investigation is much narrower.”
Just as he was getting excited, Chen Yu casually pushed the file over to him, his middle finger subtly tapping on a section of the record.
Zhou Shengtao noticed Chen Yu’s gesture and subconsciously glanced at it, and the next moment he froze.
“My God! How did I forget? This case from over thirty years ago is too similar to today’s!”
Zhou Shengtao exclaimed loudly and quickly took the file from Chen Yu, looking it over carefully.
“This is it, the criminal suspect is likely the same! Chen, you’re really a godsend!”
Chen Yu feigned an innocent look, “Ah, could it really be such a coincidence?”
Zhou Shengtao didn’t say much more, just hurriedly took the file to the conference room and spread the suspect’s information on the table.
“Starting now, pull up this person’s movements over the past thirty years for me.”
Everyone acted without the slightest delay and immediately set about their tasks.
Chen Yu, based on the suspect’s photo from over thirty years ago, sketched out the original appearance, and considering the injuries and potential cosmetic surgery, compared it against the blurry surveillance footage to produce a rough sketch.
“Captain Zhou, this is the suspect’s portrait I’ve drawn with utmost effort, I hope it can be of help.”
Zhou Shengtao, without looking, immediately ordered it to be distributed, and then a city-wide manhunt ensued.
However, according to regulations, before the suspect was captured, all personnel involved in the case were not allowed to leave unauthorised, and had to stay within their respective departments.
As an external consultant, Chen Yu was of course aware of such rules, and he made no complaints, just sitting quietly in the office waiting.
Around midnight, with a text message from Zhou Sheng on his phone, everything was settled.
Before long, several relevant personnel brought in a handsome, tall man to the department.
His facial proportions and bone structure had an almost impossible perfection, even his facial bones were different from the average person’s.
Moreover, he had features of over a hundred different people, which explained why Chen Yu produced different results while drawing from the video.
Most importantly, the suspect had more than one steel pin implanted inside his body to alter his physique and height.
