Chapter 55: An Essay That Has Been Submerged for Ten Years

Xiong Qian did not start with his daughter's death, but bluntly stated the biggest suspicion he had found in the decade of investigation.

This made Mo Xiaochuan a little surprised.

At the same time, I have to admit that this is indeed a very smart approach.

Xiong Qian tried to tell Section Chief Wang in this way that he could completely get rid of his selfishness to handle the case, look at the case objectively from the perspective of an outsider, and most importantly, he was not old!

He found clues that even the police hadn't noticed!

Section Chief Wang smiled and said, "Sit down and say, sit down and say." ”

Xiong Qian sat down with great trepidation, and then handed the documents on the table to Section Chief Wang.

"This is my work notes for the year, this is my own analysis of the murderer's behavior profile, this is all the records I have interviewed in the past ten years, this is the ......"

Mo Xiaochuan watched Xiong Qian pile stacks of materials into Section Chief Wang's hands, like a child who desperately wanted to be recognized by the teacher, I don't know why, Mo Xiaochuan's heart was pinched hard.

Xiong Qian divorced his wife in his early years and did not remarry, and after Xiong Xinlan's death, he only did one thing in the past ten years.

The edge in his eyes was long gone, his back was a little rickety, and his body was full of decay and decay, but he still refused to fall, because the person he was looking for was still at large.

He spent a full decade reorganizing all the clues about the case, interviewing all the victims' families and possible witnesses, and reassembling together the evidence that had long since disappeared in time.

He gave up his job, his friends, and his life.

Just to seek justice for his daughter.

In order that her soul may rest in peace.

The information that Xiong Qian finally handed over to Section Chief Wang was half a foot thick, and every word on it weighed as much as a thousand pounds.

Not as a former criminal investigation team leader, but as a father.

The smile on Section Chief Wang's face was full of retraction, and in its place, it was an incomparably heavy one.

What Xiong Qian handed over to Section Chief Wang was not just a stack of papers, but his daughter's life and his own life.

As he had said to Hodder before.

If the murderer is not caught this time, he will die without looking away.

At the end, Xiong Qian took out a notebook that looked a little old, and turned to the last page with great familiarity, and there was only one sentence on it.

"Why did Zhou Meizhen lie?"

The handwriting of this sentence is different from the others before, it looks more delicate, and it looks like it was written by a girl.

Section Chief Wang said suspiciously: "This is ......?"

Xiong Gan's face was as usual, and his voice was full of calmness: "This is the last sentence that Xinlan wrote in her work notes before the accident. ”

"When did you find out?"

"A few days ago, I happened to learn about the murderer's recidivism from Xiao Qin, and I was a little ...... complicated, I couldn't help but look through some of Xinlan's previous things, and then found this in a pile of clutter. ”

Mo Xiaochuan suddenly realized that the news had been transmitted by Qin Tian from the Forensic Section.

He couldn't help but ask, "Haven't you read this notebook before?"

Hearing this, Xiong Gan's eyes suddenly darkened, some self-blame, and some pain, but he quickly hid his inner emotions and nodded.

"Since Xinlan left...... I haven't touched her stuff much, and I always think it's best if everything is left as it is. ”

This sentence was a little sad, and Mo Xiaochuan could only be silent.

Instead, Section Chief Wang opened his mouth and asked, "So what you said before that you found out that Zhou Meizhen was lying, is this based on this?"

"No, no......" Xiong Qian hurriedly shook his head, and then took out a small notebook from the stack of materials in Section Chief Wang's hand.

"You see, this is a record of my visits to other victims' relatives, in the past ten years, I have been to every family, many have been to more than once, some of the family members are more emotional, and they have slowly calmed down with the passage of time, telling some things that I didn't tell the police back then, only Miao Miao's family, I couldn't ask anything, and her mother's reaction is indeed a bit abnormal, Xinlan's notebook is just a corroborative evidence. ”

"Oh?" Section Chief Wang pushed his glasses and said solemnly, "What do you say?"

Xiong Qian said excitedly: "After I left the police force, when I visited Miao Miao's house for the first time, I found that they had moved, and later I made a lot of effort to find out her mother's new address, so I went to visit with a glimmer of hope. ”

"The result?"

"Her mother didn't see me. ”

Mo Xiaochuan pondered: "Everyone's acceptance is different, Miao Miao's mother chose to close herself afterwards, it's also human nature, right?"

Xiong Qian nodded: "I thought so at first, so it took me a long time to go to her for the second time, who would have thought that they would move again! In fact, in the past ten years, I have searched for their house more than a dozen times, but even if I did, they had never met me." ”

Mo Xiaochuan grasped the most critical point and asked, "Didn't Zhou Meizhen call the police?"

Xiong Gan's eyes finally flashed with a hint of sharpness.

"Nope!"

Section Chief Wang also frowned secretly: "It does seem that there is something strange. ”

Mo Xiaochuan found the second suspicion, and then said: "Since Zhou Meizhen moves so frequently, hasn't she left the mountain city once?"

"Nope!"

There is no doubt that Xiong Qian's behavior of disturbing the families of other victims' again and again is indeed easy to disgust.

Mo Xiaochuan could fully imagine that during this period, Xiong Qian must have suffered a lot of cynicism, personal attacks, abuse and humiliation, and even physical trauma.

But Xiong Qian survived again and again, and finally found clues that even the police couldn't find!

And his conclusion, to a certain extent, is completely consistent with Mo Xiaochuan's analysis.

Miao Miao's case is really the key!

Thinking of this, Mo Xiaochuan couldn't help asking, "Do you know where Zhou Meizhen lives now?"

Xiong Qian shook his head: "The last time I found her was half a year ago. ”

Hearing this, Section Chief Wang immediately clapped his head and said: "I'll let the people from the task force investigate in a while, and when we find out, we'll go to find it together." ”

Xiong Qian suddenly showed gratitude, and said again and again: "Thank you, thank you leader, thank you ......"

At this time, he once again became the old man who looked extremely humble, but for the last breath in his heart, he was willing to do anything.

Mo Xiaochuan hesitated, there was a question that had been pressing in his heart for a long time, although he knew that it would be very inappropriate to ask it at this time, but this was the best opportunity.

So he asked anyway.

"Team Bears, I want to know, from your professional point of view, whether your daughter's death ten years ago is inextricably linked to the murderer's eventual cessation of committing crimes?"

When the words fell, the atmosphere in the field suddenly became a little heavier.

Xiong Qian took a deep breath, and finally replied categorically: "Personally, I think there is no connection!"
