Chapter 50 Old Cases
As soon as he returned to the police station, Shui Bingyu asked Meng Xingchen to send someone to check if there had been anything special in Fuxing Primary School in the past ten years?
About 20 minutes later, the police officer in charge of the investigation walked into Meng Xingchen's office and said: "Ten years ago, there was a case of assault on a girl at Fuxing Primary School. However, what is puzzling is that it did not take long for the victim's father to withdraw the lawsuit, and the case was closed. ”
Shui Bingyu frowned and said, "This case is interesting! Why did the father of the victim withdraw the lawsuit?"
"Indeed, is it threatened?" Meng Xingchen agreed.
"There is such a possibility. Shui Bingyu replied.
"What is the name of the victim girl, and where does her family live?" asked Shui Bingyu.
"The victim's name is Huang Xiaowan, and her family lives in Huaxinli Community in the western suburbs. The police officer in charge of the investigation said.
"Team Meng, let's go to Huang Xiaowan's house to see the situation. Shui Bingyu said.
Huang Xiaowan's home lives in an old community, the building is very old, and the appearance is dilapidated.
Her home lives on the top floor, there is no elevator in the old building, Shui Bingyu and Meng Xingchen climbed the stairs to the sixth floor.
The one who opened the door was an old man about sixty years old, who should be Huang Xiaowan's father.
Meng Xingchen took out his work card and explained his intention to the old man, and the old man looked Meng Xingchen and Shui Bingyu up and down before letting them enter the house.
The furnishings at home are very simple, which proves that the economic conditions of Huang Xiaowan's family are not very good.
At this time, the old man was at home alone, and Huang Xiaowan should have gone out to work.
"Old man, we just want to find out, Huang Xiaowan was violated at school ten years ago, after you reported the case, why did you withdraw the lawsuit later?" Shui Bingyu asked softly.
"Well, it's been so many years since this incident, why are you still asking it for?" the old man seemed reluctant to bring up his sad past.
"Old man, that's right, there have been two cases recently, and we think it is related to what happened in your family ten years ago, so please tell us about the situation and cooperate with our work. Shui Bingyu explained softly.
"Hey, my Xiaowan is a hard-working child! That incident ten years ago ruined her life!" the old man's eyes moistened slightly.
"Then why did you withdraw the lawsuit again at that time, and didn't let the culprit who hurt Huang Xiaowan receive the punishment he deserved?" Meng Xingchen asked puzzled.
Xiaowan's mother has always been in poor health, and she happened to be diagnosed with kidney failure ten years ago, and she urgently needs a large amount of money for a kidney transplant. Not long after we reported the case, the principal of the 'Fuxing Primary School' came to the door and asked us to make a private case with us, saying that if we continued to report the case, it would not be good for their school's reputation, after all, Xiaowan was in the school. He offered to give us 20,000 yuan as compensation and asked us to withdraw the lawsuit. At that time, in order to treat Xiaowan's mother, we had to make the decision to withdraw the lawsuit!" the old man said with tears in his eyes.
"Then what does Huang Xiaowan think about the withdrawal of the lawsuit?" asked Shui Bingyu.
"My family Xiaowan is a very sensible child, and she has kept silent about this matter since then. However, people have always been very depressed, and they found a job as soon as they graduated from high school, and they have not had a boyfriend until now! I see that she is still in a daze by herself from time to time! Those beasts are really not human!" said the old man through gritted teeth.
"How many people? Are you saying that there were a few people who bullied Huang Xiaowan at that time?" Shui Bingyu asked in surprise.
The old man nodded.
"Then do you know any information about those people, like names or something?" Shui Bingyu continued to ask.
"I don't know, after that incident, Xiaowan has been crying at home and not saying anything!" the old man sighed.
"What time does Huang Xiaowan get off work, we want to talk to her. Shui Bingyu said.
"Comrade officer, I beg you, I've told you everything I have to say, so don't ask Xiaowan about it again!" the old man choked up and pleaded.
Shui Bingyu looked at the tearful old man in front of him, couldn't bear it, and nodded.
Walking out of Huang Xiaowan's house, Meng Xingchen looked at the silent Shui Bingyu and asked, "Do you think Huang Xiaowan's case has anything to do with the killing of these two deceased?"
"I think that Huang Xiaowan's father provided that there were multiple people who committed the crime at the beginning, which is worth studying. Shui Bingyu said.
"Do you think it will be the people who were killed? Could it be that Huang Xiaowan is taking revenge?" Meng Xingchen asked.
"It's not certain yet. Huang Xiaowan and his father, theoretically speaking, do not meet the external conditions of the murderer, one is a defenseless girl, the other is an old man with a thin body, how can they have the strength to kill a man in the prime of life and throw his body in the wilderness?" Shui Bingyu pondered.
"Could it be that someone is helping them?" Meng Xingchen asked.
"Or they were drugged in advance, so that they were powerless to resist! Meng team, hurry back to the police station to see if the detailed autopsy report comes out. Shui Bingyu said.
As soon as he returned to the police station, Meng Xingchen went to the forensic doctor to get the autopsy reports of the two deceased, which confirmed that there were no drugs in the stomachs of the two deceased.
"Could it be that their deaths have nothing to do with Huang Xiaowan?" Meng Xingchen muttered to himself.
"An important question now is, who were the criminals who violated Huang Xiaowan back then?" Shui Bingyu said.
"According to the report records at the time, there were no names of those people in it. Meng Xingchen replied.
"It seems that if you want to know the truth of what happened back then, you can only go to Huang Xiaowan to understand. Shui Bingyu replied.
"Didn't her father say that he wouldn't let us disturb Huang Xiaowan's life anymore?" that girl was also pitiful!" Meng Xingchen sighed in a low voice.
"We can send someone to secretly follow Huang Xiaowan first, and then we are taking the opportunity to act. Shui Bingyu replied.
So, Meng Xingchen arranged for people to secretly spy on Huang Xiaowan.
In the evening, Shui Bingyu walked alone by the river, thinking about what to do next.
Although the connection between the two deceased was found, no clues to the murderer were found, and Huang Xiaowan's father and daughter, who were related to this case, did not have the external conditions to commit the crime.
There is also a question that makes her puzzled, how did the murderer dump the body without anyone noticing?
Shui Bingyu thought as she walked, absent-mindedly, and let the vehicles around her pass by like flowing water.
"Excuse me. A voice came from behind Shui Bingyu.
Shui Bingyu turned to look, and there was a three-wheeled garbage truck full of garbage behind him, and the rider was a middle-aged man wearing a mask and dirty clothes.
The middle-aged man reiterated once: "Let the trouble go." ”
Shui Bingyu hurriedly covered her nose and got out of the way, you must know that the sour smell of garbage is not something that ordinary people can bear.
I saw the garbage truck parked next to a garbage can, the middle-aged man jumped out of the car, lifted the garbage can, packed the garbage bag inside, put it in the garbage truck, and then stepped on the garbage truck and walked away.
Shui Bingyu stared at the middle-aged man's every move, pondered for a moment, and suddenly she seemed to have figured out something, she immediately took out her mobile phone and called Meng Xingchen.
"Team Meng, I know what method the murderer used to abandon the body. Shui Bingyu couldn't hide the excitement in her heart and said excitedly.
"What method?" Meng Xingchen was shocked when he heard it.
"Garbage trucks. Shui Bingyu said.
"Garbage truck?" Meng Xingchen asked puzzled.
"That's right, it's a garbage truck. Shui Bingyu explained, "Think about it, in the middle of the night, it is very reasonable to drive the garbage truck to those remote places to collect garbage, and the sour smell of the garbage can also cover the smell of the corpse?"
"It sounds very reasonable, but if you hide the corpse in the garbage truck, if you bump into it when you throw the corpse, won't it still be exposed?" Meng Xingchen continued to ask.
"It's not going to show it at all, first of all, he hides the body in a garbage bag, puts it on a garbage truck, and then just finds a place where no one is there and puts the body out of the garbage bag. As for what you said about being bumped into, this kind of thing doesn't happen at all, when people see a garbage truck, they will unconsciously avoid it, and no one wants to get close to the garbage truck, let alone pay attention to the contents of the garbage truck. Therefore, the garbage truck is the best cover for the murderer to throw the body. ”
"In this way, we will be able to follow this clue to find out the whereabouts of the murderer. Meng Xingchen said.
"This is a clue, and besides, I'm going to meet that Huang Xiaowan tomorrow. Shui Bingyu replied.
Early the next morning, Meng Xingchen called the little police officer who was in charge of monitoring Huang Xiaowan, and asked him to take himself and Shui Bingyu to the place where Huang Xiaowan worked.
"According to what I have learned, this Huang Xiaowan has been going out early and returning late every day since she worked, working several jobs, working hard to earn money, and finally opened a flower shop on this bustling commercial street two years ago. At this time, the little police officer parked his car opposite a flower shop.
He pointed across the street and said, "Look, there it is." ”
"Happiness Flower Shop".
A flower shop full of pastoral style, and the most important thing is that there is a beautiful girl in the store, with the brightest smile, who is introducing customers to the varieties of flowers.
Shui Bingyu got out of the car and walked into this flower shop, and the beautiful girl in the store asked enthusiastically, "Beauty, what flowers do you want to buy?"
"I want to buy flowers for a strong girl who has been hurt a lot and can laugh at life again, I don't know which flower is suitable?" Shui Bingyu asked with a smile.
Although the sunflower is not as romantic as the rose or as pure as the lily, it symbolizes the sun, is bright, has its own unique charm, and it blooms with dreams and love for life. Said the beautiful florist girl.
"Give it a little sunshine and it's shining. Shui Bingyu said with a smile.
"Well, that's right, just give a little sunshine and it will shine. The florist girl also said with a smile.
"Okay then, let's just have a bunch of sunflowers!" Shui Bingyu said.
"Beauty, here you go, ten dollars. The flower shop girl wrapped a bunch of sunflowers and handed it to Shui Bingyu.
Shui Bingyu took the flowers, gave the flower shop girl ten yuan, and then handed the flowers to the flower shop girl.
"What's wrong? isn't this sunflower blooming well?" asked the florist girl in surprise.
"No, I'm going to give you this bunch of sunflowers, Huang Xiaowan, strong girl!" Shui Bingyu had a complicated expression in her eyes, with pity, appreciation, and
For the first time, Shui Bingyu had a feeling that she didn't want to continue the investigation and didn't want to know the truth of the matter!
