Chapter 926 - An Outstanding Analysis

The three of them talked as they walked into the station. The direction they were heading towards was the same as before. It was the surveillance room.

Ye Jian said that she saw a silver car but no silver cars were found on the road cameras after coming down the highway or along the roads of the accident. There were no road cameras at the crime scene so if they wanted to find the suspicious car, they had to rely on Ye Jian.

“The workers at the maintenance workshop were certain that they inspected every single tire. They didn’t see any nails. The nails that were embedded in the tire were the most common nails found in the market. All maintenance workshops use them so we can’t track where it came from.”

“Old Guan’s friends said that Old Guan was a kind and gentle person. He never had arguments with other people so he doesn’t have enemies.” Ye Jian carefully observed the images from the road cameras. The police officers told Xia Jinyuan their findings so Ye Jian was able to hear it.

The images moved very quickly. It started from the moment Old Guan’s vehicle passed by Hongkou City. This video was sent over by Hongkou City’s Transportation Bureau.

The last time when Ye Jian was observing the surveillance images, Commissioner Yang wasn’t present. Now, when he saw it, he was flabbergasted… How many times did she fast forward the video? Was she able to see anything?

Ye Jian stared at the images as they flew past her eyes. She asked Xia Jinyuan, “Is there an item that allows you to change the color of your car quickly? If no silver cars were seen after the highway exit and there were no silver cars at the junction of the car accident, is it possible that those people changed the appearance of their car?”

“Why do you say that?” Xia Jinyuan looked up at Ye Jian whose gaze was fixed on the screen. The images moved at a very fast speed. He could see light blinking on her face. The cold and hard light from the screen tainted her expression with a vicious aura.

Ye Jian paused the video five minutes after Old Guan’s truck drive passed the highway. A white car appeared on the screen.

Commissioner Yang, who was observing Ye Jian all these while, secretly gasped. She didn’t just look at the images, she looked at them carefully. She even remembered when each scene appeared in the video. That was how she was able to pause the video at the exact second.

She didn’t just have a strong memory. She had a strong memory and a quick and powerful reaction time.

Ye Jian didn’t notice Commissioner Yang’s reaction. She used the images as her evidence and stated what she discovered. “This car has been following Old Guan’s truck ever since he finished his lunch. Old Guan’s truck came on the expressway at 3.12 pm yesterday. This car came on the expressway at 3.22 pm.”

“At 10 pm, Old Guan drove his truck into the service area and rested for two hours. This small sedan drove into the same service area and rested for two hours too. At midnight, Old Guan continued on his journey. He came down from the highway at 3 am and entered the car maintenance workshop. He started driving again at 3.45 am. At 4.21 am, the car accident happened.”

She put four paused images on the screen and pointed at them. “When he exited and came down from the highway, this white car was always present. However, this car suddenly disappeared after that. I looked at all the road cameras on various roads. This white car had disappeared.”

The police officers quickly recorded what Ye Jian said and gave a detailed order. “Check if any white cars changed their color at the maintenance workshops. Then, ask…”

“No, there’s no need to ask around. The car didn’t enter any maintenance workshop. They spray-painted their car themselves.” Ye Jian said firmly, “When I came down from my car to take a look at the accident, I smelled gasoline and oil paint. It was very strong. Soon after, this silver sedan appeared.”
