Chapter 38: The Nightmare Ray

"But there is no clue who killed this extreme stepmother, because the police have not found anyone with a motive to kill." Li Zhitong said.

"Doesn't this family have relatives and friends?" Xu Tian asked.

"I didn't find out, the man in this family didn't come when he died unexpectedly, and it was the funeral parlor owner in this alley who was tied up with cooking." Li Zhitong said.

"How could there be such a strange family?" Xu Tian thought it was incredible.

"There are many more things that you can't think of! After the death of his stepmother, the little boy did not shed a single tear, and under all kinds of questioning by the police, he did not ask the little boy about his mother's bad things about him, but the little boy seemed to be very grateful to his mother, but the little boy did not have sad emotions. Li Zhitong said.

"Why? Is there an in-depth investigation? Xu Tian asked.

"The opinion given by the police is that because the little boy has witnessed his mother treating his sister badly for a long time, the little boy has no feelings about his mother's death." Li Zhitong said.

"That's a bit of, don't you think?" Xu Tian said.

"The police who handled the case to me also felt very ridiculous, but there was no better reason to investigate, a seven or eight-year-old child did not feel a little sad in the face of his mother's death, how could this matter be investigated? Do you want to list the little boy as a suspect? This is simply nonsense, not to mention that the little boy has no possibility of murder, even his age does not meet the conditions for committing a crime. Li Zhitong said.

"No, there are a lot of inconsistencies in this case, none of the relatives and friends in the whole family can't talk about it at all, I think I'm lonely enough, but I still have Li Ming's outstretched party by my side, don't talk about my family first, if I die, I believe that Mr. Jin will also take care of the aftermath for me, right? Teacher Jin? Xu Tian turned his gaze to Teacher Jin and asked.

But at this time, Mr. Jin was already asleep, sitting in the cold wind with a thin coat and falling asleep, sleeping very sweetly.

"This ......" Xu Tian was no longer able to complain, but looking at Teacher Jin's sleeping face, Xu Tian couldn't help but have a sour feeling in his heart, it seemed that Teacher Jin was too tired.

"Leave him alone, there doesn't seem to be a clue in the case at hand now, so it has been listed as an unsolved case until now." Li Zhitong said.

"It's not that there are no clues, in fact, our case-handling staff, like the little boy in the incident, were confused by the stepmother who carried the lantern upstairs, and the places that should really be paid attention to were forgotten." Xu Tian said excitedly.

"Humph!" Li Zhitong couldn't help but let out another sneer. "It seems that you have noticed, but unfortunately, the owner of the funeral parlor is nowhere to be found, and the shop was closed before the urban village was planned to be demolished." Li Zhitong said.

"You're right, it's worth noting why the funeral parlor owner filmed the whole process of the accident so coincidentally when the little girl had an accident, but this is only one of them, and the police can't miss it in such an obvious place." Xu Tian said.

"Oh? So what else have you noticed? Li Zhitong asked.

"The things that should be noted have nothing to do with the accident of the little girl, I believe that the accident about the little girl must have been planned by the stepmother, there is no doubt about this, I have just said that we are like little boys attracted by the stepmother carrying the lantern on the stairs, in fact, the place that should be paid attention to at that time is in the room. What does it mean that you have said in your account that the little boy has been squatting at the door of his room since the evening, and that his mother has been glaring at her and yelling at her? Xu Tian said.

"Explain that the person in the room doesn't want the little boy to approach her." Teacher Jin opened his eyes and said.

"That's right, that person is not the stepmother's deity at all, and the lights in the room have not been turned on because that person is afraid that his appearance will be exposed, how can the little boy who stays by his mother's side all day not recognize his mother? But before the little boy's mother should have been detained by the police and the court for a long time, the court's sentence could not be so fast, plus the cycle of the police handling the case, from the stepmother framed the little girl to the arrest, until the court sentenced the stepmother to two years in prison and two years of probation, this period should have passed at least three months, and the little boy's account said that the weather conditions that night, very cold winter, from the late autumn season when the little girl had an accident to the late winter season, about three months have passed. Xu Tian said.

"So the little boy who has been away from his mother for three months will also have some rustiness with his mother, but he will not not recognize his mother, but if a person who looks very similar to his mother sits in a dim moonlit room, it is difficult for the little boy to distinguish the real from the fake, and he is already a little rusty, plus his mother yells at him, the little boy can only have fear in his heart." Teacher Jin said.

"It's okay for the two of you to sing and harmonize!" Li Zhitong said.

"Does that stepmother have any relatives like twin sisters?" Xu Tian asked.

"There are no twin sisters, but she has a very young mother, who is the grandmother of the little boy." Li Zhitong said.

"What about people?" Xu Tian asked.

"Thousands of miles away, I haven't been to this city." Li Zhitong said.

"Isn't there a similar suspect? This case must have something to do with inheriting the property, if the little girl dies and the stepmother dies too, then who is likely to inherit the house? With such a small villa like this, coupled with such a wide yard, the demolition money will definitely get one million yuan, which is a lot of money. Xu Tian said.

"Of course, the heir is a little boy, but now that the little boy has been sent to his grandmother's house thousands of miles away, the demolition money will naturally fall into the hands of his grandmother." Li Zhitong said.

"Judging by the look on your face, you should have told the police about it, right?" Xu Tian said.

"Of course I will reason about this ingredient, but unfortunately, grandma is not a murderer, but stepmother and grandma do have a little estrangement between relatives, but it is not enough to kill her own daughter to seize the property, and that grandma is not poor, she is a retired professor, like many university teachers, has her own side job, and is now retiring in a big northern city!" Li Zhitong said.

"Then this clue is also broken, but I think the previous reasoning should be correct, the woman who has been sitting in the little girl's room upstairs since returning home in the evening should not be the stepmother herself, I also watched the video provided by the police just now, and I can't see the stepmother's face clearly in the dim room." Xu Tian said.

"You still haven't deduced the truth, have you?" Li Zhitong said.

"No, the truth is close at hand, not only did the camera in the room not take a clear picture of the stepmother's face, but the camera outside also did not take a clear picture of the stepmother's face, which couldn't be more obvious." Xu Tian said excitedly. 1.
