- [Lusha 访谈](https://www.investigators.net.au/blog/lusha-访谈): 1. 你如何成为侦探？ 我的父亲是一名人民警察。记得那年我才10岁。在学校假期的时候，父亲和母亲携带我和我的哥哥去旅游了一个礼拜。 当我们回到家里的时候，父亲的手枪在保险箱不翼而飞了，其他的银行帐薄及现金还有妈妈的金银首饰都完好无缺在保险箱里。家里的一切跟我们出游之前一摸一样。父亲当时非常的紧张，我们自己揣摩不出是哪个有经验而且非常熟悉我们家庭环境的人，盗走了仅仅父亲的枪支。 父亲最终报案了。警察让全家包括我在内请到警察局做口供和按指印。录完第一次口供，警察又让我们各自回去审我们的口供。小小年纪的我感觉到警察是在通过询问找取线索来破解案子。我当时非常的好奇警察的破案方式。 后来我一直着迷于所有的侦探电视剧和电影， 以及犯罪心理学。印象最深的是“lie to me”。 主角完全通过以对话的方式了解对方的思维而破解案子。 中国没有学习侦探的机会，警察事业并不是我所想要的，参军也不是我想要的。来到了澳大利亚，我搜索到了侦探课程，我就立刻报名学习，从而开始了侦探职业。 2. 做为侦探，你做什么工作？ 从2010年至今，我接触了不同范围的侦探工作。其中跟踪追踪调查是大部分的工作。在跟踪追踪调查中，我基本上是守候在调查对象居住或者活动的地方隐蔽的观察他们的行为并进行相关的记录。我也做便衣侦探。这要求我乔装成对应环境的身份来汲取相关的证据。我也做过事实调查，事实调查要求我去跟调查对象进行问询调查，并总结报告。 侦查的范围很宽广，我们的公司承接很多不同的业务。业务涉及了辨别文件真伪，查找失踪人口，以及汲取电脑和电话里删除的信息等等。 3. 怎样收取证据？ 追踪调查我们一般使用摄像机，针孔摄像机，长焦距焦的摄像机和高清相机来进行摄影汲取影片和照片证据。有时候我们会作为便衣侦探，乔装自己的身份深入到调查环境中去汲取证据。 数据调查会收取调查对象在他们的社交账号上发布的文章，照片来分析调查对象的活动。电脑和手写专家调查是调查文件的真伪和电子系统的删除信息。 4. 侦探一天的工作生活是怎么样的？ 如果一天我的主要任务是跟踪调查，那么我的工作是从桌面到具体实地。 我先收取案件信息，然后对案件信息作相关调查。我查看调查对象的脸书 faesbook，LinkedIn 账号，找到他们的图片。然后我去实地。这是最有意思的部分。通常我不会告知调查对象我会实地考察。事实调查的案子列外。当调查对象不知道自己在被观测到时候，我通常得到一些意想不到的很吃惊的结果。如果调查对象没有活动，我会在5个小时内结束观察。如果调查对象非常活跃，观摩时间通常会持续到调查对象停止所有活动，返回通常到居住地点。在他们返回一小时后，没有更多的活动，我便会停止当天的观摩。 如果一天我的工作是作桌面数据调查，我和我的其他同事会在办公室里运用电脑和数据库查找调查对象的信息。以及电话垂询相关调查对象的信息。 5. 你为什么喜欢侦探职业？ 这份职业总是让我在思索在可能范围中将会发生的不肯能和可能是事情。而且每一份案子都有各自不同的特点和难题。我喜欢挑战和尝试不同的问题。 我很乐意去观察我的周围环境，人和事物来学习，总结经验。 6. 在工作中，你胆怯过吗？ 在最初的工作阶段，有胆怯过。因为我还不了解我所调查的对象到底会做什么。总是在忧虑即将可能或不可能发生的事情。随着工作经验的递增，自己有更多的信心来应付胆怯，来应对难题。也知道如何在有危险的时候可以有效的保护自己。自己可以怎么样保护自己当有危及状态的时候。 7. 怎么样成为一个优秀的侦探？ 优秀的侦探是带着问题去观察，思考和询问调查对象的专家，侦探运用摄影机，录影机记录每一个行为，收集和分析资料，从而总结和推测一个可靠的结果。优秀的侦探有良好的记忆力，高度的弹性来适应不同的环境来操作自己的侦探计划并且有高度的耐心。优秀的侦探会了解深知自己的法律权限，知道什么行为和什么调查方式是合法话的，从而令收集的证据是合法接受和使用的。优秀的侦探是一个演员，记录者，摄影师和一个心理医生的整合体。
