Detective from the future

Chapter 748 Clues
Han Bin saw the other party's entanglement, "It's okay, you can speak up boldly, the police records are confidential, and you are not the only witness, even if you don't tell others, you will say it."

Wang Xiaoyi bit her lip, "I...I saw a clown holding a hammer and breaking the gate of the hot air balloon's steel cable."

Han Bin said, "Do you have any worries about this situation?"

Wang Xiaoyi bowed her head and remained silent.

Han Bin tentatively asked, "Could it be that you are related to this accident?"

Wang Xiaoyi quickly shook her head, "No, no, I have nothing to do with this accident. I followed the employee manual to operate, and it was all done by that clown."

Han Bin asked, "Since it has nothing to do with you, what are you worried about?"

Wang Xiaoyi hesitated for a moment, seeing Han Bin's sharp eyes, knew that some words were not clear, and this person might keep asking the bottom line, "Someone died in an accident, I am afraid that saying the wrong thing will have a bad impact on the playground. I cherish this job."

Han Bin roughly understood the other party's thoughts, "Do you know that clown?"

Wang Xiaoyi shook her head, "I don't know."

"I heard that there are clowns in your playground, could he be an employee of your playground?"

"No way, our playground employees wouldn't do this kind of thing, probably not." Wang Xiaoyi's tone didn't sound convincing.

Before, Han Bin always thought that the clown was dressed up by outsiders, but Wang Xiaoyi's attitude made him have an extra guess, whether the clown himself was an employee of the playground.

"What do you think of the clown's behavior?"

Wang Xiaoyi pondered for a moment, "I was so frightened at the time. After the cable gate was knocked off, the hot air balloon went straight into the air. It was too late for us to make amends."

"How many people were there?"

"There was me, another colleague, and the deceased's girlfriend."

"You three didn't want to stop the clown's behavior or pull the tightrope?"

"If you go to the scene and have a look, you will know that the steel cable of the hot air balloon is not fixed, but has a track that can move. We were standing outside the track at the time. After the hot air balloon moved into the air, it moved with the direction of the wind. It’s a certain distance, and it’s too late to stop when we found out.” Wang Xiaoyi sighed,
"And there are guardrails on the outside of the track. We have to open the guardrails to enter, which will delay a lot of time. Usually, no one will enter near the cable track except maintenance personnel."

"We were also dumbfounded when we saw the clown knocking off the cable gate with a hammer. This is the first time we have encountered such a thing."

Han Bin nodded and continued to ask, "Where did the clown go?"

"Drop the hammer and run."

This clue is very important, Han Bin confirmed, "Did the clown wear gloves at that time?"

Wang Xiaoyi thought for a while, "I don't remember clearly. After the accident, I kept staring at the hot air balloon, so I didn't care about gloves."

"What does that clown look like, please describe."

Wang Xiaoyi frowned, showing a thoughtful look, "He was wearing a pointed hat, I can't remember the color, he looks quite tall, he should be around 180cm like my male colleague, I can't remember the others .”

Han Bin asked, "Is his clown costume painted, or is he wearing a clown mask?"

Wang Xiaoyi recalled for a moment, "It seems to be wearing a clown mask."

Han Bin said, "Do you have any other clues about that clown?"

Wang Xiaoyi shook her head, "I really can't remember. After the hot air balloon took off, my attention was all on the hot air balloon, and I was thinking about how to bring the hot air balloon down."

Han Bin took advantage of the situation and asked, "Why did the hot air balloon suddenly explode and fall when it rose to a high altitude?"

Wang Xiaoyi replied, "The air gets thinner as you go up, and the hydrogen in the hydrogen balloon will expand outward. Once the hydrogen balloon bursts, it will easily get out of control. I guess so, but I don't know exactly if it is."

Han Bin took out a business card, "If you think of any new clues, whether it's about the dead, hot air balloons or clowns, you can contact me directly."

"Okay." Wang Xiaoyi took the business card and left.

After a while, another employee in charge of the hot air balloon came over, and Han Bin asked as usual, "Name, age, place of origin..."

"My name is Zeng Shaowei, I am 25 years old, and my hometown is Huicheng..."

Han Bin asked a few questions, and the answers of Zeng Shaowei and Wang Xiaoyi were basically the same.

However, when Han Bin asked about the situation of the clown, the answers of the two were somewhat different.

Han Bin said, "You describe that clown."

Zeng Shaowei replied, "He held a big hammer with a wooden handle in his hand, and he wore a clown hat on his head. I remember it seemed to be red. Also, he was a little shorter than me, probably less than 1.8 meters. "

"By the way, he threw away the hammer later. The hammer should be near the track. I can take you to find it."

"One more thing, he has a knife."

Han Bin wrote it down in his notebook, "Are you sure?"

Zeng Shaowei said firmly, "Sure. After he knocked off the gate of the steel cable, I wanted to catch him, but just as I was about to climb over the fence, I saw the clown take out a knife from his arms, and I... …Didn’t dare to go there.”

"What kind of knife?"

Zeng Shaowei rubbed his nose, "I can't tell if it's a knife or a dagger. But it doesn't look big, the blade and handle add up to only [-] centimeters."

Han Bin drew an important symbol. Since the knife is mentioned, the style of the knife must be determined later.

Han Bin asked, "Are there cameras near the orbit of the hot air balloon?"

Zeng Shaowei shook his head, "There is none near the track, few people go there, tourists are forbidden to enter, so there is no need to install it. However, there are surveillance cameras near the hot air balloon parking place. As for whether the clown can be photographed, I can't say for sure."

Han Bin flipped through his notebook, "Is there anything unusual about the deceased before boarding the hot air balloon?"

Zeng Shaowei glanced in the direction of the crash site, and replied, "There is nothing unusual about him, it's just that his girlfriend struggled for a while, and at first it was his girlfriend who yelled to get on the hot air balloon. After he bought the ticket, his daughter The friend said he was afraid, and let him go on a hot air balloon by himself in the name of not wasting money."

Han Bin asked, "How long have you been in charge of the hot air balloon?"

"I'll be in charge after the playground reopens. It's been three or four months."

"Do you think it's normal for them to be in this situation?"

Zeng Shaowei curled his lips, "Friends come together, some want to play, some are afraid to play, I have seen many. But it is rare to see such a troublesome girlfriend like his."

"Woooo..." At this moment, four cars drove over in the distance.

very familiar.

Han Bin gave Zeng Shaowei a business card to remind him of any clues before contacting him.

More than a dozen people got off the four cars one after another. The first two cars were from the Third Squadron of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Yuhua Branch, the third was from the technical department, and the fourth was from the forensic department.

The leader was none other than Zeng Ping, the captain of the third squadron.

Han Bin went up to greet him and said, "Captain Zeng, you are here."

"Brother Bin."

"Team Korea."

Everyone also greeted Han Bin.

Zeng Ping joked, "You're lucky, you have encountered another big case."

Han Bin showed a wry smile, "Captain Zeng, don't make fun of me. I'm out to play. If you encounter something like this, it's too late to make trouble."

Zeng Ping also knew it was not time to joke, so he restrained his smile, "How is the situation?"

Han Bin gave a brief introduction to the situation, and then added, "I have sent the police to set up a cordon on the fixed track of the hot air balloon, but I was the only one at the scene, and I haven't had time to go over to see it."

Zeng Ping nodded, "As long as the scene is well protected, it's the same for checking later."

Han Bin made a gesture of invitation, "Captain Zeng, I'll take you to the scene of the crash."

"Let's go." Zeng Ping responded, pointing to Du Qi and said, "Take two people to visit the tourists around."

Later, Han Bin took others to check the scene.

A cordon was pulled around the scene, and there were police officers from the police station outside, but no damage was done.

After seeing the distorted figure of the deceased, Zhao Ming slammed his lips, "Tsk tsk, I used to want to ride a hot air balloon when I came to the amusement park. I thought it was cool, but I didn't because I was a little scared. Now... probably in this life There is no chance."

Han Bin smiled, and when he was about to say something, the deceased's girlfriend Zhang Li ran over, "Officer Han, I remembered something."

Han Bin glanced at the other party, and introduced to Zeng Ping, "Captain Zeng, this is Zhang Li, the girlfriend of the deceased."

The case was to be taken over by the Yuhua Branch, and Han Bin introduced Zeng Ping to Zhang Li, "Miss Zhang, this is Captain Zeng of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Yuhua Branch, and he is in charge of the scene now. He says."

Zeng Ping waved his hand, "Captain Han, you're wrong about that. Director Dai said that even if we arrive, you will still be in charge of the scene."

Han Bin froze for a moment, what does this mean?
In front of outsiders, Han Bin didn't ask too much. With his relationship with Zeng Ping, everything was easy to discuss, and investigation was the most important thing.

Han Bin asked, "Zhang Li, do you have any clues?"

Zhang Li's tone was a little uncertain, "I... seem to know that clown."
