Chapter 49: The case is reopened

If Master Lu taught me anything other than Taoism, it might be the solution to the problem.

I briefly told Ma Bin what I saw at the Lu family, and then took him to check the previous information.

As a member of the Special Case Investigation Department of the Yuanshan Police Department, Ma Bin has the authority to call a lot of information within the police system, I don't know why Master Lu didn't use such resources before, but for me, there is no psychological concern about letting Ma Bin help.

He managed to get me into the archives of the Toyama Police Department.

Lu Xiuyao's accidental death occurred in the summer of five years ago, and as a case that was more sensational and meticulously investigated at the time, the National Police Agency's archives contained four boxes of materials.

Photographs, post-mortem reports, on-site investigation reports, all sorts of things.

Compared with the previous investigation of Heihezi, there is too much information about this case.

Lu Xiuyao drowned, the autopsy report confirmed this, she did not have any toxins or anesthetic components in her body, the only suspicion is that several parts of her body later appeared obvious corpse spots, and there was a mark on her forehead that was hit by a blunt object.

This suggests that she may have been crushed in the water and suffocated, or she was knocked unconscious and thrown into the water and drowned.

However, because the suspect has not been locked, another theory was later put forward, and it is possible that she fell from the railing of the covered bridge into the water, hit her head on the cobblestones at the bottom of the water, caused a coma, and eventually drowned.

This argument later became mainstream, and the case was eventually closed with this reasoning.

But what made me pay more attention was the investigation of all the members of the Lu family during the investigation.

The first to be suspected and investigated was Lu Xingming and Lu Xinghua's children, from the perspective of interests, Lu Xiuyao won Lu Suhe's love, and if this development continues, it is not completely impossible for her to obtain most of Lu Suhe's inheritance in the future.

Although it is really unlikely that someone will be killed because of something that will happen more than ten years or even decades later, as the only conflict of interest of the deceased in this case, Lu Xingming's two sons, Lu Xinghua's son and daughter, have been investigated.

As it turned out, they all had ample alibi.

Lu Xinghua's whole family was participating in a golf charity tournament in the city at that time, although Lu Xingming's whole family was in the Lu Mansion, but whether it was the eldest son Lu Yunwen or the second son Lu Yunhong, they had never gone out in their rooms at that time. Especially the second son Lu Yunhong, who I think is very suspicious, was taking a piano lesson at the time and never left the room from beginning to end.

Did I guess wrong?

"Can you find out the cause of Lu Yunhong's biological mother's death?" I said to Ma Bin.

He quickly found the corresponding record from the database, Lu Xingming's original wife Shao Lehua, died of cancer eight years ago.

"Wait a minute!" I felt that something was wrong.

Lu Xiuyao's accident happened five years ago, when she was six years old? In other words, before Shao Lehua died of illness, Lu Xiuyao was already born? Let's reason simply, maybe before Shao Lehua got sick, Lu Xingming was already with Yang Shanshan?

Five years ago, Lu Yunwen was fifteen years old, and Lu Yunhong was twelve years old, which was the most rebellious, rebellious and reckless age. They have no way to take revenge on their father and stepmother, will they shift the target of revenge to their sister who is unable to resist?

"Lu Xingming's two sons are very suspicious!" I said to Ma Bin.

"Such an obvious thing, it is impossible for the person who handled the case at that time to miss it." Ma Bin shook his head and said.

Sure enough, we found a large number of investigation records in the case file, and the objects of questioning included all the servants of the Lu Mansion at that time, including the current housekeeper Li Yao.

Most of the confessions overturned my conjecture, the relationship between the two teenagers and Yang Shanshan was indeed bad, but the relationship between Lu Yunwen and Lu Xiuyao was very good, and although Lu Yunhong hated his sister very much, he was actually a very cowardly and introverted teenager, and no one thought that he would poison her.

Coupled with the fact that both of them had sufficient alibis, their suspicions were eventually cleared.

Another mainstream speculation at the time was that thieves said. That is, it is speculated that a thief entered the Lu Mansion to steal, and was killed by Lu Xiuyao, who was playing alone in the garden.

But this idea was immediately overturned, although there are no cameras installed everywhere inside the Lu Mansion, but there is an infrared alarm device on the periphery, and it is difficult to have a thief come in without being discovered by the security guards.

And even if a thief did come in, a six-year-old girl couldn't possibly pose any threat to them, and they had no reason to kill her.

"If you can kill her, then why not just kidnap the ticket?" There is even such an opinion in the minutes of the meeting.

"What do you think?" I asked Ma Bin.

"The investigation at that time should have been very thorough." Ma Bin said. "If something happens to a wealthy family like the Lu family, it is impossible for the Police Department not to go all out to investigate, and you are too whimsical if the two of us want to overturn the case by looking at the information."

I can only admit that his words are right, but it is always unwillingness to admit my mistakes like this, I took those photos at that time and looked at them one by one, and suddenly I saw something in a live photo that should not exist!

The spirit room where Lu Xiuyao's spirit bones are placed!

Why is it on photos?

Ma Bin took me to the police officer who was in charge of the scene investigation, and after looking at the photos for a while, he nodded affirmatively: "We don't know about this, but this building did exist at that time." Why don't you ask the people in the Lu Mansion? ”

I couldn't tell him that the people at the Lu Mansion now saw me as a liar, but Ma Bin was still very capable, and he quickly found a security guard who had been fired because of what had happened.

"The house was probably built a few months before it happened." This man now works as a security guard in an office building, but he refused to say anything related to the Lu family at first, and it was only after Ma Bin gave him some money that he spoke. "I said that I was going to put the ashes of the eldest lady in it for preservation."

"Big lady? Is her relationship with Lu Xingming very good? "This makes me incomprehensible, Lu Xingming had already given birth to Lu Xiuyao with Yang Shanshan a few years before she died, how much affection still existed between them that Lu Xingming wanted to take her ashes home from the cemetery for storage?

"I don't know." The security guard shook his head. "But at that time, it was rumored that the eldest lady had a very vicious curse on the master before she died, which made the Lu family suddenly have a lot of things and all kinds of troubles. The old lady specially invited the master, saying that it was necessary to use this method to dissolve her curse and make the Lu family prosperous again. ”

This rumor of a fired person would have been the least credible, but it suddenly occurred to me that something seemed to be being unraveled little by little.

What if Lu Xiuyao's death was because of the deceased?

From the perspective of a yin-yang warlock, this kind of statement, which is not accepted by the police at all, seems to me to be the most likely at this moment.

So, Lu Xiuyao's ghost is still lingering, and even the recent changes will be related to the dead wife Shao Lehua?
