Chapter 148: Heavenly Principles (7)
Luo Chuan quickly left Tian Ying's residence and walked in the direction of the village.
In fact, Luo Chuan has always been a serious and unambiguous person in the matter of law enforcement, not saying hard things, but never doing soft things. He knows that there is a boundary line between compassion and the law, which cannot be crossed. No matter how sad and helpless the murderer's reason for killing is, there is no way to pay for life. No reason should be above the law. So no matter what kind of criminals he encounters, Luo Chuan will not easily give criminals room for bargaining.
Today, the reason why he agreed to Tian Ying's condition was not entirely out of sympathy. Rather, he seems to be faintly aware of another possibility of the truth of this case. Tian Ying's confession was so natural that she didn't even hesitate at all. It's just that the possibility that Luo Chuan thought of still needs more evidence to confirm. So even if Tian Ying didn't make this request, he couldn't take Tian Ying away now. The real murderer...... Most likely not her.
Back in the village, Luo Chuan first found the police officers under Xu Guofu and asked them to help transfer a case file. That is, the accident seven years ago, Luo Chuan must know the names and identities of all the people in the car at that time.
Since it had been seven years, the officers were a little uncertain and said, "Captain Luo...... It's been so long, and it's probably not easy to find. It's better to check from the aspect of the car accident, the equipment of the transportation department back then was more advanced than ours, and they could call it up with a computer. After all, there were also fatalities in that accident, and I should be able to give you an answer soon. ”
Luo Chuan nodded again and again: "Okay, we must do it as soon as possible." I had to know right away who else was in that car. ”
The officers quickly began to contact the local traffic management department and also called the local police station, all in order to give Luo Chuan an answer as soon as possible.
While waiting, Luo Chuan thought about sorting out the ins and outs of the whole thing under a big tree on the side of the road. On the surface, it seems that Tian Ying should have done it, and everything was her revenge. But the actual situation and Tian Ying's reaction made Luo Chuan feel that things were not so simple. Tian Ying hasn't been out for a few years, where did she get the sleeping pills to kill Wang Xingwang? How did she transport Wang Xingwang's body outside the village?
Judging from Tian Yinggang's image and the villagers' avoidance of her, as long as she enters the village, she will definitely attract everyone's attention. But the truth was not, until the village chief said that incident, he was still saying that Tian Ying had not appeared in the village for a long time.
And just looking at Tian Ying's physical condition, the height of about one meter six or five is estimated to be less than eighty pounds. In such a state, how could she take Wang Xingwang's body with her bare hands?
But if it's really not her, why didn't she refute it just now? Why choose Default? Does she know who the real culprit is? Luo Chuan felt that if Tian Ying was not the real murderer, then she would definitely know who the real murderer was, and she would protect it willingly. This couldn't help but remind Luo Chuan of Tian Ying's house, the only offering table with a trace of emotional warmth. Who is she enshrined? Does this have anything to do with her frank confession?
The disgraceful thing back then seemed to be a secret of the whole village. But in fact, it was probably just the secret of the ten people in the car. Excluding the two people who died in the crash, there are only eight people left. Now two more people have died out of the eight, and only six people are left who know what happened in the car. These six people are the next target of the murderer to kill, and they are also the clues to find the murderer.
The idea seemed to be getting clearer and clearer, Luo Chuan found the two police officers just now, and before he could speak, the police officer preemptively said: "Hehe, Team Luo, don't worry!" I've got it done! I said that in ten minutes, I could send me the list of people in the car! Wait! ”
Luo Chuan smiled and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work." I want to go to the departure station in the village now, can you show the way? ”
The police officer happily replied: "No problem! Not far away, in the middle of the village. For the convenience of the villagers at both ends, they set up the simple station in the middle of the village. On the side of the mountain road, there is no need to go to the entrance of the village, and the road is specially used for cars. When we come here, we sometimes take a bus. ”
"Okay, let's go." Luo Chuan was a little anxious. He knew he was getting closer to the truth, and he was short of some evidence. Although, that truth is something he definitely doesn't want to see.
After walking for about ten minutes, Luo Chuan was led by the police officer to the station. Actually, it is said to be a station, but there is a large open space next to the mountain road, on which a few lines are drawn, and three buses are parked. There are only two trips to and from the county every day, which depends on the weather, the road conditions, and whether the driver has something to ask for leave. Therefore, this simple station is not as standardized as in the city. There is only a temporary house in the corner, which is a place to take care of vehicles. Inside sat an elderly man drinking tea and reading a newspaper.
Luo Chuan stepped forward and asked the old man through the small window, "Old man, are all the buses in our village here?" ”
The old man glanced at Luo Chuan through his reading glasses, and replied lazily: "It's all here, but the driver has a stomach, and it is estimated that he will not be able to go this afternoon." The weather doesn't look good, so if you want to get out of the village by car, you might as well wait until tomorrow. ”
Luo Chuan revealed his identity and said to the old man: "That's the case, I need to go to those cars to investigate, you ......"
Before Luo Chuan finished speaking, the old man flipped through the newspaper and said, "It's okay, it's okay, go ahead!" There are not so many rules in this place, and everyone comes on weekdays, and they all get on when they want, waiting in the car to leave. I'm here, and I'm not here to watch the car, just to catch up with the unexpected situation and can't go, so leave someone to notify everyone. Whatever you want to see, see for yourself! ”
After listening to the old man, Luo Chuan nodded and smiled, and then walked to the three buses.
If one wants to leave the village, the only way to leave the village is by bus...... Then Wang Xingwang's corpse is the same.
Since this case is related to the incident of seven years ago, the murderer can basically eliminate the possibility of outsiders committing the crime. If the people in the village committed the crime, no matter how he killed Wang Xingwang, and finally wanted to throw him on that mountain road, they needed to have transportation.
These three buses are Luo Chuan's primary suspects.
Luo Chuan walked into the car and looked at it carefully. Near the driver's position, there are towels, water bottles, and some daily items for personal use. The position behind the driver is the so-called "guide" seat. This place is usually where Xiao Ai sits and explains the local situation to tourists. At the back, there are the passengers' seats. There are luggage bins above the seats, but they are not large. If you have large luggage, you should have to put it on the roof of the car.
The car was cleaned fairly clean, and the curtains of the sunshade were half-drawn, blocking the sunlight outside.
Luo Chuan got out of the car and climbed on the roof of the car where he put his luggage. The police officers below were confused and couldn't help shouting, "Captain Luo! Be careful! What the hell are you looking for? Tell me and I'll help you find it! There's a boom on it, don't stain your police uniform! ”
Luo Chuan's attention was on the roof rack in front of him, he didn't answer the police officer, but carefully looked at the various bits and pieces on the roof, and quickly began to imagine all the possibilities in his mind.
Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, hurriedly climbed out of the car, and then ran back to the little house, knocked on the window and looked at the old man inside.
The old man opened the window, poked his head out and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Luo Chuan asked with some excitement: "These days, has there been any breakdown in the car?" Or, was there any danger? Please think about it for a moment. ”
The old man helped his reading glasses, thought for a moment and said, "There is no fault, if there is a fault, I will not go out." Dangerous...... Running on this mountain road all year round, it's no wonder that there is no danger! ”
As he was talking, the old man's eyes lit up when he looked outside, and then he pointed to Luo Chuan's back and said, "Hey! The driver came, you ask him, he knows better than me. ”
As soon as Luo Chuan turned around, he saw a man in his thirties, he hurriedly ran towards this side, and when he saw Luo Chuan and the policeman, he stood stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong?" What's going on? ”
Luo Chuan looked at the prime of life and asked, "Are you the driver of the bus?" ”
The prime man replied: "Yes, all the documents are complete, and it has been open for three years!" ”
"What's your name?" Luo Chuan asked.
"Zhang Xiaohu." The prime man seemed to be a little overwhelmed, and he didn't know why the police suddenly appeared here.
Luo Chuan asked the question he had just asked the old man again: "Have you been in any danger in the past few days?" What is the procedure before you start each day? ”
Zhang Xiaohu saw that the policeman didn't seem to be arresting him for anything, so he relaxed, took a deep breath and said, "I'm scared to death, I thought I did something wrong!" Before the departure every day, I help carry the luggage, some foreign tourists come here to live for a few days, and when they leave, they can't get the game and specialties in the mountains, so I have to help them carry it. After that, I waited for the bus to depart, and there was no program. As for the nearest danger...... Not at all! If I had to say that I was almost in danger, it would have been ten days and a half months ago. That day, a tourist left something at the hotel, and he waited for a long time! While waiting for the departure of the train, I also went to the toilet, and when I came back, he didn't come back yet! Finally he returned, and it was dark. He said he didn't know what was going on, and something fell on the road. It stands to reason that I shouldn't have left so late, but when I saw that everyone was all together, I waited for so long a day and left. After a sharp turn down the hill, the lights suddenly darkened, and a piece of luggage fell from the luggage rack, startling the passengers. I was shocked when they screamed! The turn was a little sharp, and the car was a little floating. But how clever am I? I made a sharp turn, a dozen fierce wheels, and I turned the tide in an instant! Comrade policeman, this ...... Is it dangerous? Zhang Xiaohu described it vividly, with exaggerated movements.
The police officer on the side had a headache when he heard this, so he interjected: "You are not dangerous?" On a big night, if you react a little slower, your car will flip out! ”
Luo Chuan's face was heavy at the moment, and he asked, "Can you tell me the approximate location of this incident?" ”
Zhang Xiaohu thought for a while, then patted his head and said, "Eh, it's near where you found the body a few days ago!" Almost, it should be! Eh, you say, isn't that place wicked? There's something dirty, right? When you think about it, it's really crazy! Zhang Xiaohu said, and trembled twice.
Luo Chuanwu nodded to himself, as if thinking about something.
The police officer on the side saw Luo Chuan like this, and hurriedly behaved and said, "Captain Luo, I understand!" Are we going to catch the passenger who deliberately dragged it until late and turned back to find something? If he can't keep it, he's a suspect! ”
Before Luo Chuan could speak, Zhang Xiaohu asked in confusion: "What suspect?" Murderers? No, you can't! The uncle who forgot his things and went back to find things is estimated to be in his seventies this year! Walking is all carried by Xiao Ai! Who can he kill? ”
The police officer was stunned, pouting helplessly and not speaking.
Luo Chuan sighed softly at this time, and then said to Zhang Xiaohu: "I know what's going on, you go get busy." You must be careful when driving in the future, I see that your drivers here are very fast when they make sharp turns. Maybe it's because you've been running mountain roads for a long time, but you still have to be careful. After all, there are so many lives in the car, and they are in your hands. ”
Zhang Xiaohu nodded as if he didn't understand, Luo Chuan waved his hand, and let him go.
At this moment, the police officer's mobile phone rang, and it was the list of personnel from the transportation department in the county.
Luo Chuan hurriedly snatched the phone and looked at it quickly, and then couldn't help shaking his head slightly. It seemed that he was helpless and regretful.
The police officer didn't quite understand Luo Chuan's actions, so he cautiously asked, "Team Luo, what did you find?" Is there a suspect among these people? You tell me who it is, and I'll bring it to you! "This police officer doesn't seem to have any brains at all, he just wants to perform well in front of Luo Chuan, and if he can make another meritorious service, it will be the best.
Luo Chuan was thinking about what he was going to do next. The identity of the murderer, he probably already knows. But now he is not in a hurry to find the murderer, but to find the few remaining people. A few of them are hiding the real secret, a secret that no one else knows except a few of them! And this secret can kill them.
But at this moment, Ke Xue called.
As soon as Luo Chuan answered the phone, he heard Ke Xue shouting anxiously: "Team Luo! ”
Immediately afterwards, Xu Guofu grabbed the phone and shouted: "Captain Luo, come back quickly!" Tian Ying committed suicide in fear of sin!! ”
