Fortunately, the household registration is not separated, and Wang Xiangrui and Lin Xuan successfully found Gu Hangzhou's wife, who has retired at home. At the time, she was playing mahjong at her next-door neighbor's house. When he heard someone knocking on his door, he came out to check, and after learning about Wang Xiangrui and Lin Xuan's intentions, he also gave active cooperation.
Wang Xiangrui and Lin Xuan learned from their conversation with her that Gu Hangzhou had gone to Xiangyang City in 1995 to do a clothing wholesale business, and after more than two years of dismal business, he returned to Pujiang City on the eve of the Spring Festival in 1998. It has not been a month since he arrived home, and just after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, his father-in-law had a sudden heart attack and could not be rescued, and he died. Since his wife was the only daughter in the family, his mother had passed away at an early age, and the public house where his father-in-law lived before his death was naturally classified under the name of the husband and wife. In order to start a new life and make a complete break with the past, the two decisively decided to move, and soon their hukou was also moved here. Later, they started a wholesale pork business with the help of an acquaintance's introduction. This time they seem to have been favored by God, and they have made a lot of money with good fortune. After the family's situation gradually improved, they also saved a wedding house for their son. At the end of 2017, just when Gu Hangzhou was immersed in the joy of his later life and imagined the happy life of teasing his grandson after retirement, he was diagnosed with advanced liver cancer. The doctor asserted that his life would last only three months at most, and his actual condition was even worse than the doctor's diagnosis, and he barely survived for two months before finally being killed by the disease.
"It is obviously impossible for a man who died of illness as early as January to commit a murder in December." Lin Xuan concluded, "And if what Gu Hangzhou's wife said is true, he had already returned to Pujiang City before the 1998 cash truck robbery, and the case obviously had nothing to do with him." And I heard that before he returned to Pujiang City, he lost his wallet, along with important items such as ID card and bank card. As soon as he got home, he worked non-stop to report the loss and reissue the business, and ran back and forth for more than half a year. In addition, they need to take care of the funeral affairs of their elders - buying a cemetery, burial of ashes - and relocating household registration, etc., and they will be busy until the end of the next year. From the analysis of the timeline, Gu Hangzhou obviously has no possibility of returning to Yang City to commit crimes. ”
"It seems that the Yangcheng police also checked his whereabouts at the beginning, and only then came to the conclusion that someone impersonated his identity." Deputy Director Cui gave his own judgment.
"The clue is broken, what should I do next? Are we going to keep the track? Lin Xuan, with the meaning of solicitation, glanced at Deputy Director Cui, Huang Fangyuan and Wang Xiangrui one by one.
"Through this investigation, we only ruled out that Gu Hangzhou was the suspect in the robbery of the cash truck twenty years ago and the murder of the nanny this time. But this does not mean that the real murderer has nothing to do with him. Huang Fangyuan replied.
"Boss, why don't I understand what you're saying?"
"Why didn't the real murderer impersonate someone else but his identity? Was the theft of his wallet accidental or inevitable? Seeing that everyone was listening attentively to his analysis, Huang Fangyuan simply said his judgment in one breath, "In the conversation with Gong Lingling, I felt that the cash truck robbery and the two murders after that were all premeditated by the gangsters in advance. I was thinking that the murderer might have predetermined another identity for himself in order not to reveal his identity. Then, it must not be an accident that he will choose Gu Hangzhou. He couldn't just steal a wallet on the street and impersonate the identity of the person who stole it. Not to mention whether the stolen wallet must have an ID card in it, the technique of street pickpocketing is not so easy to master. If you are unfortunately caught, and the real case has not been done, you will be imprisoned first, isn't this a bad thing, and the gains outweigh the losses? ”
"The head is the head, and this brain is really good. Why didn't I think of this layer? Lin Xuan lost no time in sycophancy.
In this way, this person should be more familiar with Gu Hangzhou, and it may even be hidden by his side. If such a person wants to steal Gu Hangzhou's identity, it will become easy. And because of his familiarity with Gu Hangzhou, it is not easy to be recognized when he pretends to be. Wang Xiangrui followed Huang Fangyuan's train of thought and said, "In addition, it is not impossible for the nanny and Pan Zilong to follow Gu Hangzhou's clue to find out the real murderer." ”
"That's true." Huang Fangyuan agreed.
After listening to the analysis of the two, a person instantly popped up in Ge Bin's mind.
"An Huaisheng!"
"What?" The crowd raised their voices of inquiry.
"If you want to say that the person who is most familiar with Gu Hangzhou is An Huaisheng." Ge Bin explained, "The reason why I got the name Gu Hangzhou was from Anxin. Gu Hangzhou and An Huaisheng are young, and the two grew up together in the private area. Even An Huaisheng went to Yangcheng to do a clothing wholesale business, but he was picked up by Gu Hangzhou. ”
"An Huaisheng has also been to Yangcheng?" Deputy Director Cui showed a look of surprise on his face, "Where was he at the time of the cash truck robbery?" Did you come back with Gu Hangzhou? When asked, Deputy Director Cui looked at Wang Xiangrui.
"Judging from Gu Hangzhou's wife's account, she did not mention An Huaisheng, nor did she say whether Gu Hangzhou had a companion when he returned." Wang Xiangrui replied truthfully.
"On the surface, An Huaisheng is very suspicious, but I don't think it's reasonable to suspect him." Lin Xuan interjected at this time, "Thinking backwards, the gangster who successfully escaped after committing a shocking crime is obviously a high-IQ criminal, and after careful planning and layout in advance, it is impossible for him to be so easily recognized if he wants to hide his identity." Besides, we can easily associate An Huaisheng, back then, the Yangcheng police could even find out Gu Hangzhou's true identity, such an obvious fact, would they not go to verify? If that gangster was really An Huaisheng, wouldn't he have been caught a long time ago? ”
Everyone was noncommittal, but Ge Bin opened his mouth to express his agreement with Lin Xuan's point of view.
"I think what Lin Xuan said also has some truth. Maybe the gangsters chose Gu Hangzhou in the hope that they could finally guide the direction of the police's investigation to An Huaisheng. As far as we know, the cash truck robbery and the nanny murder case 20 years ago have similar modus operandi, and the suspect is good at interfering with the direction of the police investigation by means of blame, so as to help himself successfully escape from the police's pursuit net. ”
"So, you're all leaning towards the same criminal in both series, aren't you?" Deputy Director Cui asked, "And this 'shadow criminal' is real and not the late Gu Hangzhou himself, right?" ”
Deputy Director Cui suddenly proposed the concept of "shadow criminals", and everyone became interested in this new term.
"We are also blindly guessing and analyzing, and it is really difficult to make judgments with limited clues. The similarity of the criminal modus operandi can be imitation, after all, the case of the year was so big, it is not excluded that future generations deliberately imitate it. Huang Fangyuan replied cautiously, "As for whether this 'shadow criminal' really exists, I think there is no doubt about it. The basis for my judgment comes from two aspects, one is that the robbed cash has not been found so far, and the other is that Pan, who I thought was a criminal suspect, was killed, indicating that he did have helpers when he committed the crime, and that person killed him afterwards in order to steal the money and not expose himself. ”
Huang Fangyuan's words were ambiguous and did not directly give a positive answer.
"The identity of this 'shadow criminal' is so mysterious, and it is very likely that he is the person hiding next to Gu Hangzhou, is it necessary for us to invite An Huaisheng to the institute to talk?" Wang Xiangrui put forward a constructive suggestion at this time, "Whether he is suspicious or not, it is not too late to make a judgment after talking." ”
"I'll give feedback to the task force on this proposal." Deputy Director Cui immediately said.
"We're going to be fast!" Huang Fangyuan muttered a low urge.
"What about Xu Zhonghui? His whereabouts are still unknown, will he be traced further? Ge Bin changed his tone and mentioned another key person, "I'm worried about whether something happened to him now." Don't you think his current state of disappearance is very similar to Pan Zilong yesterday? ”
A word woke up the person in the dream, and everyone began to be calm again, and everyone showed a complicated look on their faces, suddenly frightened, suddenly urgent, and suddenly anxious.
"Wouldn't it? Could it be that when we wake up tomorrow morning, we will hear the news that Xu Zhonghui's body has been found somewhere? Lin Xuan exclaimed.
