Confusion (1)

The Bible did come back a week later, on a hill south of the city, the bodies of two men hung from two trees. The two deceased, one named Chen Jie and the other named Xie Yunhong, were also stabbed in the abdomen and died of excessive blood loss, both of which are presumed to have died between 10 and 12 p.m. the night before. The trunks of the two trees are also engraved with small characters: "There are eyes that cannot see, and ears that cannot hear".

Chen Yufei took Cheng Yijie to the scene again, there is a wooden house not far from the entrance of the woods, which was built by farmers living in the mountains, there are four rooms in it, and there are often some couples or small couples who like the fun of mountains and forests to rent a house here for the night. According to Uncle Wang, the owner of the wooden house, Chen Jie called in advance to book a room and chartered the entire wooden house, and at nearly 9 o'clock last night, Chen Jie and Xie Yunhong drove together, and the car was still parked in the open space outside the woods.

Seeing the two men moving in, Uncle Wang joked with them that it was the first time he saw two men coming together. Xie Yunhong said that they would come first, and several women would come over and have a good time later. Later, several other villagers went to Uncle Wang's house to play cards, and only went home to sleep after 12 o'clock.

At noon the next day, Uncle Wang saw that the wooden house was still quiet, thinking that he had played too late last night and couldn't wake up, and he didn't care, until other villagers walked through the woods and reached the edge of the valley, and found the body hanging from the tree. The cabin was empty, and there was no sign of any room in which they had ever lived.

"In one of the rooms, there was a bottle of leftover drink and two glasses on the table, and the ingredients of narcotic drugs were detected in the drinks and in the body of the deceased. Uncle Wang said that neither the drinks nor the cups were provided by him. According to speculation, it was the murderer who asked Chen Jie and Xie Yunhong to come here, pretending to bring a few women over to play together, so that they could charter the entire wooden house to facilitate the crime. The killer then entered the hut and asked the two to drink a drink with narcotics in it, and after they collapsed under anesthesia, they were dragged deep into the woods. The killer did not leave any traces such as footprints or fingerprints, nor did he drive up the mountain from the main road, but climbed up the mountain from a dark, deserted mountain path. The murderer knows how to choose when and where to commit the crime, and how not to be discovered. ”

Chen Yufei analyzed, "Like the previous two cases, the two deceased were also stabbed in the abdomen, lost too much blood and died, and after death, their eyes were gouged out and their eardrums pierced. This time, the two deceased were hung from a tree with their hands tied behind their backs, and their mouths were also stuffed with gauze, although the methods were different, but they also experienced fear and died. But there is a suspicion, to hang two big men to a tree, you have to be a man with a strong physique to do it, is there an accomplice? ”

Cheng Yijie inspected the two rows of inscriptions on the trunks of the two trees. "The words on the two trees are from the same person's hand, and the knife is the same as that used in the first two cases, both of which are held in the left hand, but although the strength of the hand and the handwriting are very similar, it can still be seen that the person who engraved the words is different. Maybe there are really accomplices, a man and a woman, who joined forces to commit the crime. Is Lei Minggang physically strong? ”

"It's very strong, but ......," Chen Yufei paused before saying, "The two deceased this time have nothing to do with the murder of a pregnant woman, and they have been verified, and they were not at the scene at the time of the crime." If it is Lei Minggang's revenge, these two people are not the object of his revenge. Lei Minggang has been working and living in Xilin for many years, while Chen Jie and Xie Yunhong have been staying in their hometown of Wuzhen before, and they just came to Xilin to look for a job last month, and Lei Minggang and these two people have no intersection at all. Will...... The murder of Li Xiaole and Ding Li was caused by other reasons? Is it just a coincidence that they appeared at the scene of the murder of a pregnant woman at the same time? ”

Cheng Yijie understood that the last question was definitely not Chen Yufei's own, and it was normal for there to be different voices within the criminal police team. So he smiled, "I'm not from your criminal police team, your leaders look up to me, so they asked me to help." What I provide is only a reference opinion, whether you want to adopt it or not, that's your business. ”

"We have also investigated the alibi of Lei Minggang this time." Chen Yufei personally holds the same view as Cheng Yijie, "However, someone testified for him that he did not have the time to commit the crime that night." ”

"What kind of alibi?" Cheng Yijie asked.

"That night, he was in a café." Chen Yufei replied, "The owner and lady of the café proved that at half past ten that night, the café had closed, and when the couple were about to leave, Lei Minggang broke in drunk. He had also drunk and broken into a café before, and the couple recognized him, and knew that he was overly sad because of his wife's tragic death, and often indulged in alcohol, so they received him, sobered him up, talked to him, comforted him, and did not leave until 12 o'clock, when he was more sober. The surveillance footage in the café is only kept for a week, and the new footage was taken from 10:20 p.m. that night, and it can be seen from the footage that Lei Minggang entered the café at around 10:40 a.m. and left after 12 p.m., which is indeed as the couple said. Even if there is a 40-minute gap between 10 and 10:40, it is impossible to get there in 40 minutes, no matter how fast you drive from the hill where the crime occurred to the café. ”

"Where's that café?" Cheng Yijie asked again.

"Near the old glass factory in the suburbs, an old villa has been rebuilt, called 'Spend Time', I like the environment there so much, I will take you there another day. The owner and hostess have a lot of personality and they think time is a waste. Chen Yufei sighed enviously, "It's really a luxury for a person like me who is racing against time." They are very affectionate, everyone calls them Mr. and Mrs. Ale, Ale is the English name of the boss Anle, the proprietress is named Mi Lan, and they also gave me a copy of the travelogue "Travel with Love" co-published by the two, I looked through it, and the content was so romantic. ”

Cheng Yijie smiled faintly. "I've been to that café and I've seen the proprietress and the elegant woman."

Chen Yufei let out an "oh" in disappointment.

"It can be used as a surveillance video for Lei Minggang's alibi, you can copy it to me." Cheng Yijie was interested in the surveillance video in the café.

"You suspect there's something wrong with the surveillance footage?" Chen Yufei shook his head, "Our technicians have identified it, and there is no trace of artificial modification. Moreover, Mr. and Mrs. Ale and Lei Minggang are not related to each other, so they cannot take the risk of perjury for him. In criminal proceedings, if a witness gives false testimony about important circumstances of the case, it constitutes the crime of perjury and is punishable by criminal punishment. They are all literate people, and they will not not understand even the most basic legal knowledge. ”

"It's not suspicious, it's just that I'm interested in surveillance footage." Cheng Yijie replied with a smile, "I watched too much surveillance video and became addicted." ”

Chen Yufei also smiled. "Okay, just let you get on with it."

Cheng Yijie returned home and watched the video copied by Chen Yufei, judging from the video itself, there was indeed no problem. The camera's orientation allows you to see the bar, most of the seats, and the door. At 10:20, only a few lights were on at the bar, and the lights in other places were extinguished, and Amle and Mi Lan were packing up all kinds of things, and at 10:38, someone knocked on the door outside, and Anle went to open the door, and a man rushed in, Anle held him, and Mi Lan also went over to help, and the two helped the man to the seat directly opposite the bar. Cheng Yijie magnified the image of the man's front and immediately recognized it, he had seen this man before, and when he and Mu Qingcheng went to the café before, they bumped into him drunk and drunk

Breaking in and climbing on the table to sleep, making it difficult for Mi Lan and Shan Xiang to deal with it, and they will have to wait for Anle to come back to deal with it. It turned out that the drunk man was Lei Minggang, the husband of the murdered pregnant woman, and his wife and unborn child died tragically, so it is no wonder that he borrowed wine to drown his sorrows.

Cheng Yijie clearly remembered that it was nearly 11 o'clock that night, and Shan Xiang came to remind him that it was going to close. But in the video, there was no one else in the café at 10:20, was it because there were fewer customers that night? He re-watched the footage, not missing a single detail. He noticed that the glass door of the café reflected the moonlight, which was so faint that it was impossible for ordinary people to see it. He looked through the calendar, and the day Chen Jie and Xie Yunhong were killed was the first day of the lunar calendar.

He decided to go to the café tonight to inquire about the situation, stood up, and looked out the window, it was not early, and the clouds and the distant scenery were crumpled into a dim patch by twilight. Remembering that today is Friday, and he can ask Mu Qingcheng to have dinner and spend the night together, the corners of his mouth can't help but rise, pick up his mobile phone, and dial her number.

Cheng Yijie was a step late, and Mu Qingcheng had already made an appointment with Yang Xirou to have dinner, but coincidentally, the place where they met to dine was the "Spend Time" café.

"Give me a seat." Cheng Yijie didn't care whether Yang Xirou welcomed him or not, so he made a request and quickly hung up the phone.

Mu Qingcheng was on the bus at the moment, and he was about to reach his destination. In the busy sound of "doodoo" after the end of the call in her ear, she stared at the phone screen and smiled, even with her cousin as a "light bulb", tonight's date is also exciting, and she has begun to slowly enter the role of "girlfriend".

Mu Qingcheng chose a four-seater by the window, and as soon as she sat down for a while, Yang Xirou arrived. Hearing that Cheng Yijie was also coming, Yang Xirou quipped: "I can't even part with dinner time, you guys are too sticky." ”

The media was noisy about the relationship between the two before, Yang Xirou and Zhang Lizhen also saw it from the newspaper, Mu Qingcheng naturally has nothing to hide from her cousin and aunt, and they are very appreciative of him because Cheng Yijie assisted the police in solving the case of Yang Ru's murder, and Cheng Yijie's own conditions are impeccable, so they naturally have a favorable attitude towards Mu Qingcheng and his relationship.
