In the evening, Wu Feng returned to his rented room, lit a cigarette, and thought about the breakthrough point of the case.

So far, he is the most likely to kill, but the two suspects, Lee Sung-dong and Han Jae-sung, remain silent and refuse to provide confessions.

Suspects have the right to remain silent, it is their right and their attitude.

Silence is an attitude that shows that they deny their guilt, but at the same time, they also give up the opportunity to prove their innocence.

What happened that night was known only to the two of them.

The next day, Wu Feng went to the Hancheng funeral home, and in the underground cold storage of the funeral home, Wu Feng saw Li Caihui's body.

After the autopsy was dissected and re-stitched, it was frozen, and since the case had not yet been solved, the body had not yet been cremated and buried.

The corpse had a wide dark red strangulation mark on its neck, bruises at the ends of its limbs, and its eyes and tongue were sticking out, consistent with the symptoms of hanging death.

There are obvious deformations in the nose, chin, and corners of the eyes, which is not a normal symptom, but Wu Feng can understand it after a little thought, in the entertainment industry, there are still a few congenital beauties, Hancheng is known as the city of plastic surgery, and there are almost no female stars who have not undergone acquired transformation, unless they take the ugly star route.

Wu Feng noticed the tattoo on the corpse's right arm, which was a strange snake that was devouring its own tail.

It is a serpent of life, which symbolizes the cycle of life, and is said to rise from the dead and reach eternal life.

Wu Feng took out his mobile phone and typed the words "Li Caihui, tattoo" on the browser, and the message showed that Li Caihui had tattooed the snake of life on her right arm three years ago.

Next to the Hancheng Funeral Parlor, there is a low white three-story building, which is the forensic branch of the Hancheng Police Department.

Wu Feng felt that if he had a good chat with the forensic doctor, he might gain something.

The autopsy report issued by the medical examiner will generally only state the signs of the corpse and the medical examiner's most confident judgment of death, just like when a patient goes to the hospital, the doctor will only write the patient's symptoms and the most likely cause on the diagnosis book, while the doctor will not write down other possibilities.

The forensic doctor in charge of Li Caihui's case was a middle-aged aunt with a pale face, and after seeing Wu Feng, there was no expression on her face.

Maybe she has dealt with dead people a lot, and she has become more accustomed to getting along with dead people.

After Wu Feng explained his intentions, the female forensic doctor answered Wu Feng's question with a few words.

"Excuse me, are you the forensic doctor in charge of Li Caihui's death case at that time?"

"Yes."

"The cause of death of the deceased was suffocation caused by the neck being bound?"

"Yes."

"What else did you find?"

"Nope."

"You can think about it again."

"There's a suspicion." The female forensic doctor finally said a few more words.

"What's the doubt?"

"The height of the deceased does not match the data on the Internet, which is five centimeters less than that on the Internet."

"How could you be concerned about this kind of problem?"

"There's no reason, it's just a routine check."

Wu Feng and the female forensic doctor said goodbye, height does not seem to be a suspicious point, and it is normal for female celebrities to lie about their height.

Relatively speaking, it's not normal to not lie about your height.

After a busy morning, there is no gain, the investigation is like this, most of the time it is doing the elimination method, one by one to investigate the possible clues, when all the clues have been investigated, if you have not got the final answer, maybe there is a clue hidden, has not been found.

When Wu Feng returned to his temporary new home, he found Wang Xueqian at the door of his house.

There was a small red suitcase on the ground, and Wang Xueqian was resting on the suitcase.

"Why are you here?" Wu Feng was a little weak-hearted and didn't dare to look at Wang Xueqian's eyes.

"I peeked at my mother's phone."

"What are you doing here?"

"It's not because of you, I solved two cases in a row, and the leaders above thought I was a genius at solving cases, so they handed over Li Caihui's case to me." Wang Xueqian said depressedly.

"Let's go inside." Wu Feng opened the door and let Wang Xueqian in, while he went into the kitchen to prepare lunch.

After the two of them had lunch, Wang Xueqian asked about the progress of Wu Feng's investigation.

Wu Feng said briefly, and summed it up as "I haven't found anything for the time being." ”

Wang Xueqian took out an A4 piece of paper from the suitcase and handed it to Wu Feng.

Wu Feng took it and took a look, this document was very explosive.

A file is like a ledger that reads:

On a certain day of a certain month, the reception of such and such a hotel, in such and such a hotel.

On a certain day of the month, the reception of so-and-so, in my house.

......

The names of the people in it are all big names in the political and business circles, and looking at the number of receptions, there are dozens of people and hundreds of times.

"This is Li Caihui's diary, someone exploded on the Internet last night, but it only existed on the Internet for half an hour, and the account that broke the news was blocked, but this diary has been forwarded layer by layer, and almost everyone in the country knows about it." Wang Xueqian said.

Wu Feng has a trance-like feeling, as if he has been blocked out of cyberspace by hundreds of millions of netizens.

Is it because I don't like to swipe my phone?

"Who is the whistleblower? Did the police find out? Wu Feng asked.

"Of course, according to the real-name information registered on the whistleblower's account, it has been determined that she is Cui Yingmei, Li Caihui's assistant."

"Real-name report?" Wu Feng's eyes widened in shock.

Is this not wanting to live? Isn't it nice to report anonymously?

"Last night, our police had quickly dispatched the police, but it was still a step late, and Cui Yingmei found that she had drowned in her own fish tank." Wang Xueqian's expression darkened.

Is this "spitting"?

Wu Feng complained in his heart, and a picture popped up in his mind, a girl's head sticking into a rectangular fish tank, like a pony drinking water in a manger.

When Wu Feng first saw Wang Xueqian, his heart was crooked, thinking that the fish that jumped out of the tank had returned to the fish pond, it seemed that he was thinking too much, and now Li Caihui's case has risen to a serious public opinion incident because of Cui Yingmei's revelations, and the high-level police can't sit still, and it is estimated that the political and business circles will be passively reshuffled.

Therefore, Wang Xueqian, a genius in the police industry, was urgently appointed to be in charge of this case.

"Did the police find the ledger at Choi Young-mi's house?" Wu Feng asked.

"No, maybe it was taken by the killer."

"Maybe she doesn't have a ledger at all, it's just that someone wants her dead." Wu Feng thought of another possibility.

This conjecture was not groundless, Wu Feng thought of the snake of life that was connected from head to tail, and the five centimeters that disappeared.

"What do we do next?" Wang Xueqian didn't have a clue in her heart.

"Let's go to the Hancheng funeral home right away." Wu Feng suddenly thought of something, grabbed Wang Xueqian's hand, and went out directly.

At the door of the Hancheng funeral home, the fire truck roared, and the billowing smoke filled the sky, Wu Feng sighed secretly, he missed the most important clue in the morning.

Wang Xueqian showed her police officer ID and quickly learned about the situation from the firefighters, who preliminarily judged that the diesel stored in the funeral home was leaking, and the fire was caused by an open flame.

Diesel fuel is usually used to cremate corpses, and the funeral home has a lot of stock.

The fire burned for three hours, and after the fire was extinguished, all that was left in the funeral home's cold storage was charred corpses.

According to the statistics of firefighters, one person was killed in the fire, and it was the middle-aged female forensic doctor that Wu Feng had seen in the morning, when she happened to be examining a body at the funeral home.

"She had a chance to escape," one firefighter said, "but she didn't come out no matter how much she tried to persuade her, she said she wanted to protect her body." ”
