Chapter Ninety-Six: Murder and Silence?
"You?" I asked incredulously.
"Hmmm! If you don't believe me, you can investigate, I even said that I wanted to kill her, and I also had the idea of killing her! ”
"So you killed the man?"
He was silent when confronted with my question.
In fact, I can understand his current mood, and he must still have some self-blame, regretting that he shouldn't have done some wrong to her. But from a rational and objective point of view, he is not a murderer.
So I reminded: "Put away your unbearable emotions first, this will only affect me to solve the case." If you think about it, what made her have that kind of change? I think her sudden change at that time was very abnormal, there must be some reason behind it! And this reason may have something to do with her death! ”
He lowered his head and gasped. It took a few minutes for him to breathe before he said, "I don't know! If I could, I would like to know too! ”
It seems that there is nothing of value to ask from him.
"Then you go back and rest first, right? If you think of anything, let me know. With that, I looked at his taped chin again, "Is the chin okay?" ”
"It's fine!" He slowly stood up and left.
After he left, I sat here alone, quietly reminiscing about the scene.
It seemed like a long time before I heard a knock on the door.
"Come in." I let out a long sigh of relief and said.
I saw that it was Ni Jiaxin who walked in, "Officer Lu, it's so late, you still haven't left." Planning to spend the night here? ”
I took out my phone and looked at it, only to see that it was already half past one.
I immediately stood up and said, "I'll go back now!" ”
Ni Jiaxin hurriedly raised the car key in her hand and said, "I have a car, I'll send you back, right?" ”
I thought it would be inconvenient to take a taxi so late, so I nodded secretly and agreed.
In the car, I fell asleep. When I woke up, it had already arrived, and it was Ni Jiaxin who woke me up: "Officer Lu, it's here, wake up!" ”
I opened my eyes, subconsciously looked out the window, and when I saw that it was really there, I unbuckled my seat belt, said "thank you", and then was about to get out of the car.
Unexpectedly, Ni Jiaxin actually followed me out of the car and said, "You seem to be a little uncomfortable!" I just poked your head and you're getting a bit of a fever! Why don't I stay and take care of you? ”
In an instant, I stopped, looked back, and looked at her in a daze.
She hurriedly said: "I'm just thinking about it, forget it if you don't like it!" ”
I turned around, came to the door in a daze, took out the key, opened the door, and walked in! As soon as I entered the room, I subconsciously raised my right hand, probed my forehead, and found that I really had a fever.
So as soon as I got back to the bedside, I didn't care about the dry mouth and just lay down on the bed.
As soon as I lay down, I fell asleep!
The next day, before I woke up, I heard a knock on the door! I immediately struggled to get up from the bed, walked over, and opened the door. I saw that Ni Jiaxin was standing outside the door, and she was still holding a plastic bucket in her hand.
"Officer Lu, your face and lips look so pale. Why don't I take you to the hospital? ”
"No need! Help me take a leave of absence today, I'll be fine with a day off! ”
Ni Jiaxin still insisted: "How can this be done? And you're going to sleep all day without eating? Look, I've made chicken soup for you, why don't you at least drink it before you go to sleep? ”
"Don't drink it!" It took me a lot of effort to close the door.
Back in bed, just lay down, and it wasn't long before I heard a knock on the door! This time, the knock on the door was louder than the knock on the door just now.
I dragged my tired body again, got up, and opened the door.
Unexpectedly, what came to me was a shining knife.
Luckily, I was able to dodge quickly, so I didn't get stabbed by the knife! There was a "bang", and the knife was caught by the door, making such a clear sound.
Through the crack in the door, I saw a man in a black hood outside! Judging by the physique and dress, it should be a man!
Could he be the murderer who killed Li Dongjie? Is this trying to take advantage of my illness to kill me?
Either way, life was at stake, so I slammed the door shut. It took a lot of effort for me to finally shut him out!
Unexpectedly, as soon as I stepped back, I heard a loud "pop" from the window. Glass fell in through the window, and there was a red brick in it!
He tried to climb in through the window, but his shoulders were too wide to climb in!
I hurriedly took out my phone and called the police!
As soon as I finished calling the police, I saw him shrink out, as if he was going to run away! However, I was physically exhausted at this time, so I didn't dare to chase him at all.
After waiting for 20 minutes, my colleague arrived at the scene.
They took notes and took pictures while asking me about the situation! But the man was covered with his face covered, and I didn't know what he looked like at all!
When my colleague saw that I was very sick, he said, "Shall we take you to the hospital first?" "At their insistence, I had to come with them to the hospital.
When I came over, the doctor used a thermometer to detect that I had a high fever and immediately hung a drip for me.
At this time, there are still two colleagues who stay here, saying that they are recording confessions, but in fact, they are protecting me! But they knew that I had a strong personality and a stubborn temper, so they didn't say it explicitly!
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Ni Jiaxin came to the hospital to see me and brought me good news.
"This morning, Zhao Jizhou came to the police station and said that he remembered something, which was about Li Dongjie's family background! He said that Li Dongjie's father is actually a stepfather, and he is not good to her! Maybe it's because of this incident that Li Dongjie worked so hard in his third year of high school, in order to stay away from his stepfather, right? ”
"I actually forgot about her family!" I just pulled out the needle.
Ni Jiaxin immediately stopped me and asked nervously, "What are you doing here?" ”
"I'm fine!"
"No, you need to rest more!"
"I said I'm okay, it's okay!" I insisted on getting up and continuing to investigate the unsolved case, "Did her family live in the same building where she died?" ”
"It's not! That building and that house were rented by herself! Moreover, her parents are not here at all, they are out of town all year round! So I came to tell you that this case may have nothing to do with her transfer back then! ”
"It doesn't have to be unrelated! There may be some kind of linkage in this, it may be because of some kind of interest! You can help me check over there, did her family help her buy insurance or something? ”
With that, I left in a hurry and returned to the police station.
As soon as I arrived at the police station, I quickly found her file and investigated her family background: after her father died in an accident, her mother remarried, no wonder she had been living with her mother-in-law before.
