Falling Red Chapter Twenty-Six: Blue Folder
"Commander-in-chief," the secretary Xiao Ren reported, "Ren Qiuling has already caught the suspect, and it's a woman." β
"Women?" The acting commander-in-chief put down the thick file in his hand and said in surprise. Before Ren Qiuling, all the criminal psychologists had analyzed the murderer of the Tiandu corpse crushing case as a man, no wonder the acting commander-in-chief was so surprised.
An expert can be wrong, a bunch of experts are somewhat reliable, right? Even men and women are mistaken?
Xiao Ren analyzed: "Maybe she wants to win too much, so she arrests someone to take the blame." You know, she did this, and that's how the Binjiang corpse case was solved. β
"Oh?" The acting commander-in-chief became interested, "Tell me about it." β
Xiao Ren had the courage to say: "I believe she will negotiate with the woman: if the woman confesses, she will be sentenced to life imprisonment; If the woman did not admit her guilt, she would put the crime on the woman's head and threaten to be sentenced to death. Women, who are weak-willed, can easily take the bait. β
The acting commander-in-chief was still pondering, and Xiao Ren said again: "There is another news. The news with Shalana, as well as the news about Ren Qiuling's reversal of the case, are all from Liang Youhui's handwriting. That person is a computer master, and he is a loyal admirer of Ren Qiuling, and he is the one who made such a play. β
The acting commander-in-chief was more interested in the latter news, "Is this news true?" β
Xiao Ren said with great certainty: "It's true." β
In an instant, the balance in the acting commander-in-chief's heart tilted to Sharana's side: Sharana no longer has the ability, and he will be an official in the future; No matter how capable Ren Qiuling is, she has no power or power.
"Alas!" The acting commander-in-chief sighed, "I have wronged Xiaosha in the past few days, and I should also visit her." He was going to make it more formal, mainly because he was concerned that Sharana didn't have a good reputation.
At this time, Ren Qiuling had already taken Qiao Xinhui to the downstairs of Meijiao Shopping Mall.
Qiao Xinhui is ordinary in appearance, but extremely smart, don't forget, she once studied at Tiandu University. She recalled everything that happened after Ren Qiuling saw her over and over again, and it seemed that she only showed her flaws when she saw her face.
At that time, Ren Qiuling asked herself: "It's been twelve years, and you have a troubled conscience every day, right?" He replied, "Yes, now I'm finally free!" She thought of many ways to explain this sentence, and finally decided to simply deny what she said, anyway, Ren Qiuling and they didn't record at the time, and there was no proof of death.
Ren Qiuling's name, Qiao Xinhui has heard of it for a long time, is a tenacious criminal psychologist. It's a pity that I've also studied a lot of detective tricks over the years, and ordinary detectives can't see it.
Qiao Xinhui's confidence increased greatly, and her steps upstairs were also strong. Entering the interrogation room on the third floor, Qiao Xinhui pretended to be relaxed and said, "This is carefully arranged, it seems to be in Western style." For example, these news photos of you solving a big case are to deter criminals; For example, these photos of the criminals you have captured are just to tell the suspects not to take chances. Am I right? β
Ren Qiuling breathed a sigh of relief, this Qiao Xinhui was not as shrewd as she imagined. In this passage, she deliberately omitted Fan Weihong's life photos.
In particular, Fan Weihong's life photos were deliberately placed in a very conspicuous position, and according to the original design, it was placed on the coffee table at an oblique 45-degree angle to the left after Qiao Xinhui sat down. This position is to ensure that the suspect can see the photo at all times - the suspect must be very afraid of the photo and can't help but want to see it.
After the two sides sat down on either side of the interrogation table, Ren Qiuling asked in a gossipy tone, "Tell me about your family!" β
Qiao Xinhui thought secretly: "This is the beginning of my words." So he said, "There is nothing to say." β
Ren Qiuling saw Qiao Xinhui holding her hands and her ten fingers clasped together, which was a typical barrier action, as if a Great Wall had been built between her and Ren Qiuling. At the same time, this action implies that she is very conflicted inside, and must restrain her emotions by tensing her arm muscles so as not to be seen by anything.
With the hands clasped in front of the body, the ten-finger clasping movement is only seen on women's bodies, and men rarely do this.
When Ren Qiuling observed Qiao Xinhui's body language, Qiao Xinhui's eyes unconsciously glanced at the photo placed at a specific angle, and then retracted her gaze as if frightened.
As long as the interrogation continues, Qiao Xinhui will unconsciously peek at the photo.
Ren Qiuling asked in a relaxed tone: "Your daughter is working hard, her grades are very good, right?" β
Qiao Xinhui's body relaxed a little and said, "It's all the teacher's credit!" Today's children are so heavy on school, I can't teach her. She loves her daughter very much, and when she talks about her daughter, her body exudes a kind of maternal radiance.
Ren Qiuling said again: "Let's talk about your husband!" β
Qiao Xinhui obviously took a deep breath before saying, "He? Nothing to talk about! β
When a person is in danger, the body will have a fight-or-flight response, when the muscles of the whole body need a lot of oxygen for energy, so there will be a situation of deep breathing - this is usually a sign that the person is already nervous.
At the same time, Ren Qiuling also observed that when referring to her husband, Qiao Xinhui's shoulders drooped and her elbows pressed against her ribs β a gesture of self-protection that usually occurs in abused children. This action has a very vivid name: the abused arm.
When children face abuse from adults, they will instinctively learn that there is no point in resisting, and the more they resist, the more serious the harm they will face, so children will clamp their elbows and control their arms to protect their movements. This movement gives the impression that the arm is as if it were mechanical, and it suddenly becomes stiff.
Ren Qiuling still chatted with Qiao Xinhui about her daughter in a chatty tone, and it could be seen that she loved her daughter very much. But during the conversation, as soon as Qiao Xinhui's gentleman Han Hu was mentioned, she immediately became nervous.
After more than ten minutes of seemingly purposeless conversation, Ren Qiuling finally heard the sound of high heels running upstairs. Zeng Mengshu pushed open the door of the interrogation room and ran over to whisper a few words to Ren Qiuling.
Ren Qiuling was overjoyed, and also whispered a few words to Zeng Mengshu.
Qiao Xinhui became nervous and stared at Zeng Mengshu carefully.
Ren Qiuling became serious, "Twelve years ago, you still have an impression of the Tiandu corpse crushing case, right?" β
Over the past twelve years, Qiao Xinhui has rehearsed such scenes countless times in her heart, and she memorized the familiar lines: "I know, I know." What a tragic case! The deceased, Fan Weihong, was my younger sister in the same school, and it is said that she was an honest person, but it's a pity! What a pity! She sighed again and again, looking and demeanor like a street aunt chatting about gossip.
Ren Qiuling said with a smile: "Oh? With such an impression, let's talk about this case! β
Qiao Xinhui couldn't help but be stunned, this was completely different from the situation she rehearsed. According to the shooting method of the detective film, at this time, the investigators should slam their hands on the table and scream angrily, right? Why doesn't this Ren Qiuling play cards according to the rules?
In a panic, she glanced at the photo of the deceased Fan Weihong at a forty-five degree angle opposite her, perhaps because of the psychological effect, she saw Fan Weihong smile contemptuously.
Qiao Xinhui closed her eyes, and her breathing became heavy.
Ren Qiuling saw that her opponent was already nervous, and hooked her finger at Zeng Mengshu.
Zeng Mengshu hugged a large cardboard box prepared in advance, suddenly missed, and slammed it on the interrogation table with a "bang".
Ren Qiuling praised in her heart, after all, Zeng Mengshu studied psychology, and this action has the effect of deterring suspects. If you want to change the black skin of the old horse, you can't do it so well.
Sure enough, Qiao Xinhui was shocked, opened her eyes and stared nervously at the cardboard box.
Ren Qiuling took out a thick blue folder from the cardboard box, opened the folder and slowly flipped through the materials inside.
Qiao Xinhui took a cautious look at the folder and felt that the information in it weighed a pound. Looking at the cardboard box again, there are some thick kraft paper document bags, each of which is stuffed to the brim.
"Qiao Xinhui." Ren Qiuling looked at the blue folder and shouted.
"Yes!" Qiao Xinhui nervously agreed.
Ren Qiuling knew that this trick had shocked the suspect, and her face was silent, and she said, "You, like Fan Weihong, are also from the countryside?" β
Qiao Xinhui pursed her lips and said dryly, "Yes!" β
Disappearing lips often represent stress.
In fact, Qiao Xinhui is from the countryside, which can be seen from her actions when she goes upstairs. People who have done a lot of farm work will bend their waists slightly when they go upstairs, because this is how they go up the mountain when they work, and this posture uses the strength of the gluteus maximus, which will be more labor-saving.
Ren Qiuling flipped through a few pages of documents and said, "You have endured domestic violence for a long time, and your husband Han Hu has been abusing you. As mentioned earlier, Ren Qiuling saw from Qiao Xinhui's arm that she was being abused.
Qiao Xinhui sighed, tears rolling down, "Yes, yes! He had been beating me all the time, and at first I put up with it, for the sake of the city's household registration β you know, how difficult it is for a rural person to be transferred to the city. Later, I endured it for the sake of my daughter. β
Ren Qiuling flipped through the mysterious folder again, "The main reason why you were beaten is that you didn't fall red on your wedding night!" β
Qiao Xinhui's face turned white with a "hmm", and she looked at Ren Qiuling dumbfounded.
Outsiders will never know about such a thing, how did she find out?
At this time, silence is better than sound, and until now, Ren Qiuling's inference is correct.
Ren Qiuling pulled out a few photos from the folder, namely: a photo of Fan Weihong's skeleton and head, a photo of the broken body being stored in an iron cabinet, and a few photos of the bag used to throw the body. The last photo, she held in her hand and didn't let Qiao Xinhui see itβbecause it was a photo that Zeng Mengshu had only taken, and it was a photo that determined the success or failure of the case.
Ren Qiuling closed the blue folder and placed it in the cardboard box full of brown paper bags.
Zeng Mengshu pretended to be weak and couldn't help the wind, and picked up the cardboard box with difficulty. Send it to the information cabinet on the side of the interrogation room. Of course, she deliberately wanted to give Qiao Xinhui a hint that there was a lot of information, and she didn't really hold the cardboard box.
The old horse and the black skin were originally guarding the door to prevent some accidents. Seeing that the blue folder was so magical, Lao Ma couldn't help but be curious: Ren Qiuling only had ten days to the sky, and only nine days to investigate the case, of which five days were wasted in the hospital. How did she get her hands on it?
At this time, Zeng Mengshu was struggling, he ran in to help without saying hello, and Zeng Mengshu couldn't refuse him.
After putting the cardboard box into the information cabinet, Lao Ma gently opened the blue folder, and after just one glance, his eyes widened.
Because there is only white paper in the folder.
Zeng Mengshu suppressed his voice and shouted: "Go out and guard!" "This is to remind the old horse to stop making a sound, as soon as he speaks, it will be over!
The old horse's lips trembled, and his hand reached for a brown paper bag on top of the cardboard box. It is difficult to describe the shock in his heart in words, but he has never heard of Zeng Mengshu's words.
