<h4>Chapter 1357: Chapter 1283: Alignment</h4>


    The man pinned down by Ni Cha, his body stiff and speaking incoherently, trying to prove that his family was unaware.


    Mu Zhiyang and the others looked at him without sympathy, clearly indicating that he couldn’t exin clearly; the more he talked, the more mistakes he made.


    "Proof of existence but not of non-existence" is one of the important principles ofw, as well as a fundamental concept in logic. If you want to prove the existence of dragons in the world, you just need to take a photo of a dragon, or at most find a dragon; but how do you prove that there are no dragons?


    The suspect rattled off in My, and Zhong Renlong along with another trantor tried to exin to Liu Jinghui and the others as much as possible.


    Jiang Yuan listened without much interest.


    From his perspective, the suspect in front of him was almost certainly the murderer. Whether the suspect confessed or denied the issue, it wouldn’t change Jiang Yuan’s view.


    As for the others, they were more interested in the suspect’s confession.


    For an outsider, it’s still very important for the murderer to confess to the crime.


    Unfortunately, the subjects of forensic research don’t usually confess willingly.


    Jiang Yuan deliberately reminded, "He couldn’t have done this alone, there should be aplices."


    Upon hearing this, Ni Cha immediately intensified the interrogation.


    Soon, two police officers walked back into the dense forest on Ni Cha’s orders.


    "He’s hidden a knife in the woods," Zhong Renlong came over to exin.


    Jiang Yuan nodded, which exined why there were no signs of struggle in the room of the ck-faced manager, but... Jiang Yuan asked again, "Is he familiar with He’s Rubber Garden?"


    Zhong Renlong understood tacitly, "Not familiar, so it can’t be ruled out that there are aplices."


    Several people quickly exchanged ideas, taking advantage of the suspect’s exhausted state after being captured, continually extracting information.


    Meanwhile, Green Pine Farm, which had already been cordoned off, began isting its personnel.


    The suspect being interrogated suddenly panicked and started shouting, "You don’t have a search warrant."


    Ni Cha sneered coldly, "You were caught on the scene, what search warrant do you need?"


    Even so, he didn’t rush to interrogate the other people on the farm. For the time being, he focused on pressuring Tarzan.


    Jiang Yuan took a general tour of the living and working areas of Green Pine Farm, then once again looked around the suspect’s residence before returning to the crime scene at He’s Rubber Garden to conduct further autopsies.


    It’s not that the Green Pine Farm didn’t need investigation, but Jiang Yuan couldn’t clone himself, and from any angle, conducting the autopsy first was the most reasonable.


    Theponent of criminal science in modern investigation is increasing significantly.


    Especially in the current situation, where there’s already a suspect and the case trajectory is gradually clearing, the work of Criminal Science bes endless.


    Ni Cha quickly dispatched personnel from the police station to the Green Pine Farm for an investigation.


    The suspect’s residence, the areas he frequently worked in, and various surveince videos within Green Pine Farm all needed to be collected.


    By the time Jiang Yuanpleted the basic autopsy and the body was bagged and moved out, the other two suspects from He’s Rubber Garden, mechanic He Jun and He Cheng, were also apprehended.


    These two were among the four people Jiang Yuan had filtered from the video feeds.


    "umted resentment and entangled interests, perhaps." Zhong Renlong gathered the information from various parties and exined to Jiang Yuan and Liu Jinghui.


    "Both suspects from He’s Rubber Garden have the surname He, perhaps there’s unequal distribution of family benefits?" Jiang Yuan casually guessed.


    "There is a reason for this." Zhong Renlong, a Chinese himself, exined, "The current owner of the rubber garden, He Quan, belongs to the same n as He Jun and He Cheng. Calcting the rtionship, he is approximately their distant paternal cousin, and their ages are simr. The three even attended a Chinese school together before."


    Zhong Renlong continued, "He Jun and He Cheng didn’t attend university and worked at the rubber garden. He Quan went to study and work outside for many years andter inherited the rubber garden. They had meals together with He Jun and He Cheng, but that was about it."


    Liu Jinghui clicked his tongue twice, "A rtive betrayal?"


    "Hmm?" Zhong Renlong found it hard to catch on to this reference.


    Liu Jinghui waved his hand, "You said they are interest-rted?"


    Zhong Renlong nodded, "He Jun and He Cheng have been trafficking goods through Green Pine Farm. Green Pine Farm has always had a route for trafficking goods. However, they currently do not admit to the murders, and we n to take them back for further interrogation."


    "Have they detailed the trafficking situation?" Liu Jinghui didn’t follow Zhong Renlong’s train of thought.


    "They’ve confessed some, but not very clearly."


    Liu Jinghui looked at Jiang Yuan.


    Jiang Yuan nodded lightly, "It’s indeed impossible that it’s solely for profit."


    Committing murders for profit, bing a serial killer, is far too risky.


    The cost of murder in modern society is quite high. In ancient times, there were ck-market operations that lived off human flesh buns and travelers’ belongings, but nowadays, anyone intent on killing could earn much more than the ie from trafficking goods. The profit chain for serial killings may need drug trafficking-level revenue to sustain it.


    On the other hand, the mode of operation and target selection for serial killers differ from ordinary profit-driven murders.


    In fact, if it were solely a case of interest-based decision on who to kill, this case might have already been solved.


    Zhong Renlong understood these points clearly, yet Jiang Yuan’s "insight" carried a different weight, prompting Zhong Renlong to promptly get serious and ask, "Is there another suspect?"


    "Judging from the ck-faced manager’s body, it’s unlikely the murderer acted alone," Jiang Yuan offered a bold hypothesis.


    Zhong Renlong’s eyes widened, "Are you suggesting the manager wasn’t the work of a serial killer?"


    "I think for now we can treat them separately," Jiang Yuan didn’t give a definite answer, but his suggestion provided some leeway for Ni Cha and Zhong Renlong.


    If he were to directly announce that the targets of different suspects’ homicides were different, Ni Cha and others might have concerns, and factoring in the subsequent court process, the decision would be tough.


    So, for now, there’s no need for a crucial decision; just continue apprehending individuals.


    Zhong Renlong looked nervously at Jiang Yuan, "Then who do you think is the serial killer?"


    "Zhang Fan," Jiang Yuan unexpectedly gave him a big case.


    For a moment, Zhong Renlong couldn’t align the person.


    Jiang Yuan said, "Among the four suspects, Li Wanzhong is dead, and from the way he died, he doesn’t seem like a serial killer. Two He’s were just excluded, which leaves us with thisst suspect, Zhang Fan."


    Zhong Renlong hesitated for two seconds, "I remember now, but this Zhang Fan doesn’t seem to have any other suspicions."


    "He’s the only one in He’s Rubber Garden with the time tomit the crime. If it’s not him, then we have to consider people outside the garden." Jiang Yuan wasn’t adamant, as the specifics would still depend on subsequent evidence.
