Chapter 68: Investigation
After having a meal, the two drove to the bureau.
"My head is empty, and I have eaten." Mo Tu drove the car, "Let's think again." ā
"I'm done." Zhang Yichi loosened the collar of his shirt and blew a cold wind, "I judge that the murderer should know the background of Chen Chen and Zhong Mingya, and he is a habitual offender, picking the kind of person who seems to have suicidal tendencies, so that he can become a reasonable suicide through disguise." He knew that Zhong Mingya was suffering from online violence, which was a normal thing, after all, Zhong Mingya was a public figure, but it was not easy to know that Chen Chen was bullied on campus, and even Chen Chen's homeroom teacher said that he didn't know, how did the murderer know? ā
"So you think the murderer is still a student in Chen Chen's class?"
Zhang Yichi looked in a daze with a cigarette in his mouth: "It can't be said that it is the classmates in their class, although it is said that the classmates in their class all know about it, but it is not only the people in their class who know that Chen Chen has been bullied for so long." We have asked people of the same grade, and we basically know that these people are also the object of suspicion, and they may also tell Chen Chen's affairs, and the scope will be even larger. ā
"It's hard to check just one grade, if they say it, the scope is not at all something that the two of us can find out in a few days, and what if there is still no result after the check? We'll run out of time. Mo Tu disagreed, "I don't think this case can be found through such a large-scale investigation, it is too untechnical." ā
"Do you have any ideas?"
"I still have some ideas after you said that." At the red light, Mo Tu stopped the car at the intersection, "You just said half right, the murderer must have known that Chen Chen was bullied, which is much smaller than knowing that Zhong Mingya was subjected to online violence, but we still shouldn't start investigating here, the scope is still too big." ā
Zhang Yichi smoked silently.
"No one is the first time to challenge killing two people in different locations at the same time and making them look like they're committing suicide. As you said, this must be a repeat offender. "Green light, unpredictable straight ahead, the car continues to drive," he must have been very proud of having designed a case that looked so perfect and impeccable, and I thought he would be there to watch. ā
"When Zhong Mingya jumped off the building?" Zhang Yichi became interested.
"Yes, there are so many people who have recorded videos, looking for them one by one, maybe you can find out the suspicious person, if this suspicious person is still directly or indirectly related to Chen Chen, Chen Chen's class, and their grade, then it is very likely to be the murderer." Mo Tu finished his train of thought.
"Interesting." Zhang Yichi smiled, "Then let's check those videos in the bureau." ā
Mo said: "In addition to the videos taken by these onlookers, all the monitoring that can be captured by the onlookers at the scene must be investigated." Our attention had been drawn to the deceased, and it was possible that the murderer had been sitting next to us. ā
When Zhang Yichi heard this, he silently turned his head to look at the unpredictable.
"Ah no, I'll make an analogy, it's not that you're a murderer." Mo Tu smiled awkwardly.
ā¦ā¦
After returning to the bureau, the two sorted out the videos taken by witnesses and the surveillance of the scene, and began to investigate them one by one.
Finally, after an afternoon, dozens of witnesses they thought were suspected, and then the identity and background of the witnesses were investigated, and two of them had relatives who attended Chen Chen's school.
The two men were named as suspects.
found their home address and contact information, but Zhang Yichi and Mo Ji did not startle the snake.
It was already evening after completing a series of tasks, and Mo Xue proposed to go to the house one by one tomorrow to investigate, and now go to dinner first.
"How do I feel that when I'm with you, eating becomes a word that comes up so often?" Zhang Yichi was a little puzzled, "Obviously, I only eat three meals a day, but I feel like I have ten meals waiting ......for you every day when I stay with you."
"Can I be blamed for this?" Mo Ji pointed at himself, looking innocent, "It seems like I can eat very well, I only say it three times a day." ā
"Forget it, I'm hungry, let's go." Zhang Yichi didn't dig any further.
āā
Day 4.
In the morning, Zhang Yichi and Mo Ji rushed to the home of the first suspect.
Mo Tu drove the car, Zhang Yichi sat in the co-pilot, watching the eyewitness video with his mobile phone. In this video, the suspect they are going to see on this trip is filmed, and the suspect in the video is yelling for Zhong Mingya to jump down quickly.
Originally, Zhang Yichi imagined that the murderer should be relatively quiet, he might be at the scene, but he would not shout to attract unnecessary attention. After all, the murderer should be careful to arrange such a seamless situation at present.
But Mo Tu felt that the murderer needed a way to vent.
The panic created by the murder would have given the killer pleasure, but the murderer chose to cover up the deaths of the two people as suicide for his own safety, so that the fear of death did not spread.
The killer didn't get much pleasure, so he chose to blend in with the crowd, watch his masterpiece, and urge him to jump off in order to vent and get pleasure.
The car pulled up near the first suspect's home.
The first suspect was an unemployed man in his early thirties who lived alone.
Living alone, without a job, without financial resources.
There is a cousin who is in the first year of high school in Chen Chen's school.
"What's next, go in and ask him directly if he's a murderer? Even if people don't admit it, they have to find some evidence. Zhang Yichi said before getting out of the car.
Mo Tu didn't care: "The task is for us to find the murderer, not to arrest him, what evidence do we need?" As long as we think he is, and he really is, then it is useless to deny it, and we still have to clear the customs. ā
"Since there is this method, it's no problem to ask a thousand people a day." Zhang Yichi doesn't think so.
Mo Ji got out of the car with a smile: "Haha, it can't be said that there is no need for evidence at all, but you still need a little." ā
The two went upstairs and knocked on the door, and after the man opened the door, Mo Ji looked serious, showed his police ID card, and went in directly with Zhang Yichi and sat on the sofa.
The man looked very ordinary, neither high nor low, and belonged to the kind that could not be found in the blink of an eye in the crowd.
"W-What's going on? Did I do something? The man looked puzzled, and saw that the two of them were sitting on the sofa generously, and he didn't know whether to stand or sit.
Seeing the man's helpless appearance, Mo Tu cleared his throat: "Where were you on Monday morning?" ā
"Monday? Wait, I think about it...... IāI went out to the mall that day. The man replied after recalling.
"You sit down first, don't be afraid." Mo Xue asked him to sit down, then looked around the smelly, messy room, "What did you do at the mall?" ā
"Buy a figurine, there's a new figurine store there." The man continued to answer obediently, not knowing what he was guilty of buying a figure, "Could it be that I bought a pirated copy?" Impossible, right...... This price is ...... workmanship"
"Where's the figure? I think. "I don't believe it.
The man held a sexy, scantily clad two-dimensional female figure in his hand and showed it to Mo Yu.
"That's it?"
"Aang, that's it."
