Chapter 16: The Search for the Truth
After Shiqi got home in the evening, she hurriedly pulled Zhang Yao from the kitchen to the living room and said
"Idiot, I don't think that female ghost committed suicide"
Zhang Yao was stunned when he heard this: "Why do you say that?" ”
"I inquired in the company today, and finally learned from a friend of the female ghost before her death that the female ghost's name was Xu Li, and she was a very strong woman when she was alive. You think she cares so much about the child in her belly, and she has a strong personality, so how could she commit suicide because she was dumped?"
After Shiqi finished speaking, Zou frowned, "But when the police came to investigate and monitor, they did see Xu Li returning to the company alone in the middle of the night, and she never came out after walking into the toilet." Dislike~! I don't understand."
However, at this time, Lin Zidong in the office of the police station was also thinking about the same problem, and three suicides in a row made him feel that it was not a coincidence, but he couldn't find a breakthrough.
"Head, here's the information you asked for on the three deceased," the black dog knocked on the door and walked in.
Lin Zidong took the information and looked at it for a while, "Black dog, you go and play the surveillance video of the first deceased Xu Li again"
So the two stared at the video for a long time, and suddenly Lin Zidong saw something.
"Black dog, do you see anything?"
The latter shook his head.
Lin Zidong picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip and said, "Look carefully, this surveillance video has always been just Xu Li's back, and the side of her covering her face and crying. If I'm not mistaken, this woman is not Xu Li at all. Although this woman is the same figure as Xu Li, she is wearing the same clothes. But we couldn't see her face clearly, so it didn't make any sense to say that the surveillance was meaningless."
"So how did the murderer take the victim to escape surveillance and enter the toilet? And on the surveillance, the woman never came out after entering the toilet," the black dog looked at Lin Zidong puzzled
"I haven't figured this out yet, but I'm sure this case is not simple, by the way, why haven't I seen the surveillance of the two deceased in the back?" Lin Zidong asked
"The monitoring of the other two deceased is strange, as if they were maliciously moved, when the deceased did not appear, the picture was normal, but when the deceased appeared, the picture became pitch black, we took the video to the Information and Communications Department and asked them to help repair it, but there is no result so far"
The black dog suddenly thought of something and added, "By the way, on the night of the death of the third deceased Wen Ting, we were in the surveillance on the first floor of the building, and we saw the master who had saved us running into the building, but when he walked into the sixth floor, the surveillance could not be seen, do you think he would be the murderer?" ”
Lin Zidong shook his head, "Before the case is closed, everyone is suspected, but I think it is unlikely that he is the murderer, if this is a serial homicide case, then the murderer's first two murder methods and layout are too perfect, how can the third time expose such a big flaw to us?" ”
Lin Zi drank saliva and continued, "But this person must have something to do with this case, and we will visit him tomorrow."
The black dog on the side was puzzled, "Head, do you know where he lives?" ”
"I don't know, but the girl named Shiqi, she knows for sure"
At noon the next day, Zhang Yao was meditating as usual, when Lin Zidong came over with a black dog.
As if he knew they were coming, Zhang Yao opened the door, smiled politely and motioned for the two to come in.
When the three of them sat in the living room, Lin Zidong first said, "We meet again, I first ask myself to introduce, I am Lin Zidong, the captain of the criminal police team of Luoxi Town, this is my colleague Daniel Zhang, this time I came because Sunshine Media committed three suicides in a row, we found that it was not so simple, so I came to you to ask a few questions"
Zhang Yao poured a glass of water for the two of them and sat down, "My name is Zhang Yao, I am not a master, cooperate with the police to solve the case, this is also what we ordinary people should do, Captain Lin, you ask"
"Then I'll call you Mr. Zhang, what is your relationship with Miss Shiqi?" Lin Zidong asked the first question first
"I'm roommates with her"
"It's as simple as that?"
Zhang Yao nodded, "Yes, it's as simple as that"
"Okay, on the 20th, at half past twelve the night before yesterday, what are you doing at Sunshine Media?" Lin Zidong went straight to the topic
"I'm going to pick up Shiqi from work"
Lin Zidong raised his eyebrows, "Mr. Zhang, I think you are hiding something?" ”
Zhang Yao looked at Lin Zidong, "I received a call from Shiqi at the time, she said that she was in danger and asked me to go over and save her"
"What danger?" Lin Zidong then asked
Zhang Yao said calmly, "She said she met a ghost"
If someone else said this to Lin Zidong, he would definitely not believe it and even get angry. But Zhang Yao said to him that he really believed it.
"Then when you entered the sixth floor, did you see a ghost? What else is going on? ”
Zhang Yao shook his head, "After I got to the sixth floor, I didn't find anything, but I knew that there were indeed ghosts there, so I took Shiqi home"
Lin Zidong looked at Zhang Yao's eyes for a while, knowing that there was no need to ask.
He got up from the sofa, "Mr. Zhang, thank you for your cooperation today, then we will leave first."
Zhang Yao looked at the backs of Lin Zidong and the two and said, "This matter is not something you can control, I suggest you don't check it, maybe you will get into trouble."
"We are the police, and it is our duty to investigate the case, if we don't investigate just because you are a ghost, then we might as well take off our police uniforms and go home" Lin Zidong didn't look back, opened the door and walked out
Zhang Yao sighed and shook his head
After walking out of the community, the black dog looked at Lin Zidong and said, "Head, then where are we going now?" ”
"Let's go to the toilet at the scene of the crime again and see if there are any clues," Lin Zidong sat in the police car after speaking
In the toilet with deep yin qi, Lin Zidong and the black dog were looking for something everywhere.
Both of them wanted to know how the murderer got the victim into the toilet unknowingly, and after creating a suicide illusion, how he quietly evaded surveillance and left.
The toilet has only one window, facing the outside of the building, but this is the sixth floor, which would not have been possible if the killer had pulled the victim up from downstairs with a rope. Because it was found from the surveillance that it was a woman who walked into the toilet, there would be no such strength at all.
Just when Lin Zidong was thinking about it, the black dog on the side hurriedly said, "Head, come and take a look, there are clues here."
But neither of them noticed, but the toilet door behind them slowly closed
