Chapter XVII
The night was deep, and in the interrogation room of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Municipal Bureau, no matter how bitter Ma Jin and Tong Rui were and how fierce their words were, Zhong Qi, who was sitting in the interrogation chair, only had one sentence and one question: How is Xiaoxue? He turned a deaf ear to the questioning of the two criminal policemen.
Ma Jin and Tong Rui also fell into a fog at this time, they didn't know how Qiu Zhenni was still alive, they didn't know how Qiu Zhenni committed suicide again, they didn't know what position Zhong Qi and Qiu Zhenni occupied in a series of cases, and what kind of conspiracy they used.
But based on the current form, they can basically determine that Qiu Zhenni and Zhong Qi are the masterminds behind the case and the murderers.
"Tong Rui, you go and call Peng Bo in, this kid owes us an explanation!" Ma Jin sighed, "Since Zhong Qi doesn't say it, then it's up to him to say it in front of Zhong Qi." β
Although Tong Rui was a little reluctant, he still went out and went to the police reception room and asked Peng Bo to go to the interrogation room. Tong Beibei saw that it was her brother who came over, and immediately made a request, she had to go to the monitoring room no matter what, she definitely couldn't miss Peng Bo's reasoning, especially the reasoning that had been verified to be completely correct.
Tong Rui couldn't take his sister, and Peng Bo and Tong Beibei's participation in the case was approved by Zhao Ju, so he nodded and agreed.
Peng Bo entered the interrogation room, sat next to Ma Jin, and faced Zhong Qi with Ma Jin. He looked at Zhong Qi with sympathy, and said: "Zhong Qi, I don't understand, since you love Qiu Jenny deeply, why do you agree to her plan of self-harm and revenge, why do you agree, and you personally cut off the index finger of Qiu Jenny's left hand, and then immediately cut off her entire left hand?" β
Obviously, Peng Bo's words stimulated Zhong Qi, who had been numb since the beginning, his lips trembled, and tears slipped from his mouth.
"Moreover, how could you allow Jenny Qiu to commit herself to her enemy Tian Zheng for this plan? The two of them frequently live in Jenny Qiu's bedroom, how can you accept it? I can't understand this love of yours, I really can't understand it! Peng Bo rarely showed his personal emotional color, and his tone was sincere.
Zhong Qi suddenly laughed, his hands clenched, his nails embedded in the flesh, staring at a pair of empty eyes, "I can't understand it myself, really." But I couldn't refuse, I couldn't oppose Shinoyuki's plan, because I loved her, even if she gave her body to such a filthy sinner, even if her body was mutilated, I still loved her. β
Zhong Qi's gaze softened again, and he continued, "What's more, Xiao Xue thinks it's worth it. As long as our plan is successful, she will be able to break away from Jenny Qiu and fly away with me. Only after she has completed all this can she be reborn as a human being, become a clean person who can accept herself and love herself, and love me and start a family. β
Zhong Qi's eyes flashed brightly, as if he saw a beautiful picture of him starting a family with Jenny Qiu.
Ma Jin was in a state of shock when he heard Peng Bo say that Qiu Zhenni's left hand was cut off, and he recalled the situation when he had just arrived at the scene with 120 front and back feet, when the scene was chaotic, and the emergency personnel were busy carrying Qiu Zhenni to the ambulance, and he didn't notice Qiu Zhenni's left hand that had been in his pocket from beginning to end.
What does it mean if Jenny Qiu really doesn't have a left hand? This woman is willing to lose one of her hands in order to create the illusion that she is dead, in order to escape the suspicion of the police? Ma Jin turned his gaze to Peng Bo in disbelief.
Peng Bo nodded and said: "Yes, this series of cases is not actually the calculation of Wang Chenxin and Tian Zheng's elopement plan proposed by Qiu Zhenni, but the calculation of Qiu Zhenni and Zhong Qi's plan for Wang Chenxin and Tian Zheng. β
Ma Jin reacted for a while, and Peng Bo's tongue-twister-like summary made him seem to understand, "Peng Bo, you make it clear." β
Peng Bo pondered for a moment, let out a long breath, and said, "Okay, let's start with Qiu Zhenni being grounded by Qiu Qingfeng." This is not the first time that Qiu Zhenni has been grounded by Qiu Qingfeng this time, because of her spending time outside, because of her profligacy, she doesn't know how many times she has been grounded by Qiu Qingfeng in the year after returning to China. This time, she finally made up her mind to carry out her plan of revenge. β
"First of all, she first found Tian Zheng, who secretly had a tryst with her, proposed to elope, and asked Wang Chenxin for help to join this elopement plan, Wang Chenxin bribed Aunt Huang to lie, buy time for Tian Zheng to hide Qiu Zhenni, and then Wang Chenxin delivered the ransom to ensure that she and Tian Zheng could successfully get the five million elopement fund."
Of course, Qiu Zhenni knew that Tian Zheng didn't really love her, and the elopement plan she proposed would be used by Tian Zheng and Wang Chenxin, two people with ulterior motives who had been waiting for the opportunity, and turned it into a real kidnapping case. She knew that Tian Zheng wanted money, of course, not only the five million, but also Wang Chenxin's ATM, and Wang Chenxin wanted Qiu Zhenni's life, so that she would have one less rival to share the inheritance. β
"It seems stupid and naΓ―ve, Qiu Zhenni, who really loves Tian Zheng deeply, has long understood the hearts of these two people, so she decided to use the two of them to become a pawn and a scapegoat in her plan." Peng Bo said, and pictures flashed in his mind, reproducing the step-by-step plan of Qiu Zhenni.
"In this way, after Tian Zheng hid Qiu Zhenni in a safe place, before Tian Zheng revealed the true face of the kidnapper, Qiu Zhenni had already turned against the guest and subdued Tian Zheng first?" Ma Jin thought about it for a while, and then denied himself.
"No, it is impossible for Qiu Zhenni to directly confront Tian Zheng as a bodyguard, she must have used some kind of medicine to make the strong Tian Zheng lose his ability to resist, and this medicine must have been provided by Zhong Qi, who is a doctor." After Ma Jin finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Peng Bo seeking affirmation.
"Yes," Peng Bo said, "it is worth mentioning that this controlled rental house near Lilac Park was prepared by Jenny Qiu and Zhong Qi early in the morning. When Jenny Qiu proposed an elopement plan to Tian Zheng, Jenny Qiu told Tian Zheng that she had prepared a hidden house where they would live temporarily. β
Ma Jin realized it and asked: "So, Qiu Zhenni deliberately left a record of her search for a short-term rental house in her personal notebook, and she told Tian Zheng that she deliberately left the wrong direction, in fact, the house she prepared was diametrically opposed to the search record on the computer, not in the hidden suburbs, but in the city center, under the nose of the police?" β
Peng Bo nodded and continued: "Tian Zheng was convinced of the seemingly innocent and stupid Qiu Zhenni, he hid Qiu Zhenni in the trunk, and the two changed cars several times halfway, went around in a big circle in Haibin City, and arrived at the rental house in the evening. But Tian Zheng didn't know that Qiu Zhenni's accomplice Zhong Qi had already been ambushed in that rental house. β
"Why did you rush to that rental house in the evening?" Ma Jin asked.
"The reason why I didn't go back to the rental house until late afternoon was because Zhong Qi was on the day shift that day, and he could only get off work at 5 p.m. to get to the rental house. After Qiu Zhenni and Tian Zheng arrived, before Tian Zheng had time to reveal the kidnapper's criminal face, Zhong Qi and Qiu Zhenni had already taken advantage of his unpreparedness and used drugs and force to easily subdue him. Peng Bo replied.
Ma Jin nodded suddenly, thinking to himself, Qiu Zhenni and Zhong Qi were really well arranged, how long had these two people been preparing for this plan?
Peng Bo continued, "At half past eleven in the evening, when Tian Zheng was asleep under the effect of drugs, Zhong Qi disguised himself as Tian Zheng, played the background sound of a fake train, and filmed the video of cutting his fingers. Zhong Qi, the doctor, had already prepared the disinfection and tools in this house in advance, and then he did it himself to ensure that the movements were clean and neat, so that Qiu Zhenni's suffering was minimized. β
Ma Jin recalled the video, and after learning the truth of the video, he was more heartbroken than when he watched the video, he said: "And Qiu Zhenni's shouting at that time, Zhong Qi's behavior of stepping on and crushing his finger, just like you said at the beginning, were all to make Qiu Qingfeng suffer from illness and be admitted to Huaci Hospital, or simply die of illness." β
Qiu Zhenni sacrificed so much to punish her father who really felt sorry for his daughter. Peng Bo said, looking at Zhong Qi sympathetically, he was imagining Zhong Qi's mood at that time, what kind of belief could support him to complete all this when he did that kind of thing to the woman he loved deeply?
For Qiu Zhenni, revenge for Qiu Qingfeng is not enough to kill him, she has to suffer before he dies. It can be seen how deep his hatred for Qiu Qingfeng is. Peng Bo sighed.
Ma Jin exhaled with a trembling breath and said hatefully: "According to what you just said, after that, Zhong Qi cut off Qiu Zhenni's left hand?" β
"Yes, Zhong Qi felt sorry for Qiu Zhenni, and after he turned off the video, he immediately injected Qiu Zhenni with anesthesia and prepared for amputation. It was in that humble house that he completed the amputation of the woman he loved, although from a medical point of view, Jenny Qiu's left hand had no reason to have to be amputated, but from the perspective of Jenny Qiu's revenge, this hand could no longer remain on her body. β
When Peng Bo spoke, Zhong Qi kept trembling his cuffed hands, he stared at his hands that cut off his lover's left hand, and tears poured on those hands as if they had opened the floodgates.
Peng Bo frowned slightly, and continued after a short sigh, "After the amputation operation and the aftermath of Qiu Zhenni, Zhong Qi did two things: first, he packed the amputated finger and the video at the beginning, and the next day, he disguised himself and mixed the package into the vehicle of the courier in charge of Qiu's villa; Second, the amputated hand is put into a small freezer like a medical freezer to reduce the blood loss of the severed hand as much as possible. β
Peng Bo glanced at Ma Jin to make sure Ma Jin understood what he meant, "It's not surprising that the police didn't find a large freezer in that house that could freeze corpses, because there was no need for a large freezer at all, there were no corpses at all." It is worth mentioning that this severed hand occupied an extremely important position in the later plan, and it was even the murder weapon that killed Qiu Qingfeng. β
Ma Jin's eyes flashed with horror, "You mean, Qiu Qingfeng died suddenly of a heart attack because of ......"
"That's right," Peng Bo waved his hand, "Let's talk about it in order first." Next up is the Lilac Park section. Jenny Qiu and Zhong Qi had already set Lilac Park as the location for the ransom payment, so they found a vacant house near Lilac Park. On the night the ransom was paid, Jenny Qiu did not show up because she had just undergone an amputation and it was impossible for her to jump into an artificial lake to kidnap Wang Chenxin. β
So that night, Qiu Zhenni was responsible for sending text messages in the house as Tian Zheng to instruct Wang Chenxin's actions, and finally Qiu Zhenni forced Tian Zheng to give Wang Chenxin instructions on the phone to scatter money. And that night, Zhong Qi rushed to Lilac Park after dressing up Qiao Zhuang, waiting for Wang Chenxin's boat on the artificial lake, and when according to their plan, the artificial lake was in a mess, and the police couldn't find Wang Chenxin who fell into the water for a while, Zhong Qi knocked Wang Chenxin unconscious underwater, took the unconscious Wang Chenxin out of the park, and took him to their nearby stronghold rental house. β
Ma Jin choked, "It's a pity that we didn't know that Zhong Qi was also involved at the time, and we patronized the figure of searching for Tian Zheng in the park, so we didn't notice Zhong Qi at all." β
Peng Bo was secretly ashamed, not only the police, but he was also the same at the time, and he thought that Wang Chenxin only had Tian Zheng as an accomplice, so he thought that Wang Chenxin's golden cicada would be to kill Tian Zheng, but he didn't expect that night, the real target of the murderer was Qiu Qingfeng.
After making sure that Wang Chenxin was in an absolute coma under the control of the drug, Zhong Qi returned to Huaci Hospital. Of course, he was not on duty that night, but for some reason he had to return to the hospital after midnight, so he gave the medicine to the doctor on duty that night, and estimated the time of the onset of the drug, and he knew that his good friend would ask him to replace him. Peng Bo analyzed.
"Some of the reasons you said were to cover up Jenny Qiu's actions that night?" Ma Jin suddenly brightened.
"Yes, Jenny Qiu insisted on doing it herself, regardless of the constraints of her physical condition after the amputation. I think she must have asked Zhong Qi, who is a doctor, to inject her with painkillers, force her body, put on the nurse's uniform provided by Zhong Qi for her, put on a wig, and use the key card and safe route provided by Zhong Qi for her to enter Huaci Hospital. β
Peng Bo was ashamed again, blaming himself for not being able to understand the mystery of the hospital's surveillance, "In fact, when I saw the surveillance video of the nurse who entered and exited Qiu Qingfeng's ward, I was very puzzled. If the nurse was Wang Chenxin's fake, with Wang Chenxin's familiarity with Hua Ci, it would be impossible for her to walk in the corridor with her hands in her pockets. Because that posture is tantamount to telling everyone that she is not Hua Ci's nurse. β
"Once the security guards discover her anomaly from the surveillance, it is likely that she will be stopped by the security guards before she has completed her murder plan. Therefore, the position of putting both hands in the pockets is redundant, but it is a must-do for the murderer that night. Peng Bo lowered his eyebrows, unable to hide his self-blame, he should have remembered the connection between his hands in his pockets and Qiu Zhenni's left index finger at that time.
"I see, Qiu Zhenni no longer has a left hand at that time, in order to cover up this, she at least has to put her left hand into her pocket, but only inserting one hand into the pocket is easy for people to focus on the left hand, so she simply put her hands in her pockets." Ma Jin sighed.
To say that he was ashamed and blamed, Ma Jin was even worse than Peng Bo, he clenched his fists in annoyance and analyzed in a low voice: "In order to prevent her abnormality from being discovered by the real-time monitoring security guards and destroying the entire plan, Zhong Qi must return to Huaci to cover Qiu Zhenni, once the security guards find out the clues, Zhong Qi will come forward to maneuver around to ensure that Qiu Zhenni leaves safely." β
