142. When the investigation of the case is in progress2
142、
The report said: On the morning of the 13th, the Huimin Road Police Station in the eastern suburbs received a lost handbag. It was picked up by a little girl in the fifth grade of elementary school when she passed by a coal storage yard near Huimin Road on her way to school. The handbag is a black leather square and contains items such as a wallet, cigarettes, lighters, and tissue. The wallet was empty and no business cards were found. The police at the police station did not report the handbag to the criminal police detachment because they thought that the handbag had nothing to do with the case. This was asked by a criminal policeman when he came to the Huimin Road Police Station to investigate the situation at the coal storage yard.
The serious case team immediately brought the handbag and brought Meng Xiangyu's wife to identify the handbag.
"It's really my husband's." Meng Xiangyu's wife said affirmatively.
"Does your husband have any connections in the area of Huimin Road?"
The woman shook her head: "No wow." ”
Tian Chunda led his subordinates to the coal storage yard near Huimin Road. A policeman with a little girl who had picked up a handbag and the girl's mother were waiting there.
"Kid, where did you pick it up?" Tian Chunda asked.
The little girl pointed with her hand and said, "It's right there." ”
The handbag had been left on the edge of the fence of the coal storage yard. The little girl was walking on this road and found it when she passed by here. There's a lot of pulverized coal there.
Tian Chunda and his subordinates stood motionless and looked around. A crane is loading a wagon with coal.
"Team leader, in the middle of the night, all this noise will be gone!" Hao Dong said.
"yes, I'm thinking about that, too."
Tian Chunda walked back and forth near the area where the girl had picked up her handbag, looking. After a few moments, he stopped about ten paces from where he had lost his handbag.
"Hao Dong, look!" He called out with his finger to the ground.
It turned out that the collapsed coal pile had overflowed from the fence and paved the ground. Some of them seem to have been leveled by someone, but traces of messiness can still be seen.
"It's been five days since the incident, so maybe the original scene has been destroyed." Tian Chunda said. He went back to the office on the left side of the warehouse inside the fence and knocked on the glass window. There were three staff members chatting there, and they all turned their faces when they heard the noise.
Tian Chunda took out his documents and showed them and asked, "On the morning of the thirteenth, has there been any change in this area?" For example, are there any traces of a fight? ”
As soon as he asked if anyone had ever fought, one of them immediately replied, as if he remembered something, "I remembered what you said." Well, it was that morning! We went to work around 8:30 a.m. and saw how messy the coal was. ”
The "there" mentioned is the place that Tian Chunda is referring to. The other party recalled the scene at that time and said: "Look at that look, it looks like a man and a woman were flirting with each other." When Wang Shi saw this, he felt disgusted, so he took a broom and swept away all the coal dust and soil scattered all over the ground. ”
Tian Chunda listened to it and complained in his heart: It's really too much. However, the matter is irreparable, and they are not blamed. Just hearing about what was going on at the scene at the time should be satisfying.
Tian Chunda turned around and walked towards the car waiting outside. He noticed that the girl who had found the handbag was still standing there with her mother, and as if he suddenly remembered something, he quickly walked up to the girl, stroked her head and asked, "Oh, yes." Kid, when you found your handbag, was it wet? ”
"No, it's not wet!"
The girl looked up at the sky with a small face, and replied clearly with a pensive look.
"Oh, if you think about it, is it really not wet?" Tian Chunda asked again.
"No wet! When I went to the police station, I was holding my bag in both hands. ”
The girl replied like this, explaining that it was because it was not wet that she went to the police station with her bag.
As soon as Tian Chunda got into the car, he ordered Hao Dong: "Take the nearest road from here and go to the miscellaneous forest where the corpse was found." ”
Hao Dong tilted his head and thought about it, and immediately turned the steering wheel. At this time, Tian Chunda looked at his watch.
Tian Chunda looked at the scenery flashing outside the car, and said to Hao Dong who was sitting next to him: "This time you should know the scene of the crime!"
"Are you sure?"
Actually, Hao Dong himself thought the same way, but he just wanted to explore the team leader's thoughts, so he asked rhetorically. The team leader took out a bulging envelope from his pocket and handed it to Hatanaka. I don't know when, the team leader put the coal ballast and coal dust on the scene in an envelope.
"You see, it's all up to it." A smile tugged at the corner of the leader's mouth.
The car turned left and right, ran a winding path, and then went up the avenue, and the road suddenly became flat and wide, and the car sped straight ahead.
The team leader glanced at the speedometer in front of him, and the hands were swinging up and down against the figure of fifty kilometers.
The car drove into the eastern suburbs of the woods. Team leader Tian Chunda ordered the car to be parked at the place where Meng Xiangyu's body was found, and immediately looked at his watch. said: "It took 56 minutes to get here from the coal storage yard on Huimin Road. It's daytime, and at night, a taxi or motorbike can travel about 60 kilometers per hour. Well...... it takes about forty-five minutes! ”
Tian Chunda was referring to the time it took for the prisoners to transport Meng Xiangyu's body here after killing Meng Xiangyu at the Huimin Road Coal Yard.
Tian Chunda and Hao Dong got out of the car. Both of them spread their arms and greedily breathed in the crisp fresh air of the woods.
After Tian Chunda returned to the serious case group, he immediately ordered his subordinates to conduct two investigations.
The first is to go to the meteorological station to verify what time the rain time in the eastern suburbs on the morning of the 13th is from what time it starts to what time it ends.
The second is to entrust the geology laboratory of a university to conduct a carbonaceous test on the coal dust of the Huimin Road coal storage yard packed back in the envelope.
After arranging, Tian Chunda returned to the office, lit a cigarette and pondered. After a while, he picked up a pencil and began to write something on the paper on the table.
At this time, Hao Dong walked in. When he saw the appearance of the team leader, he immediately stopped and asked, "Is the team leader busy?" ”
"Oh, that's okay. Come on in! Tian Chunda said, but his writing hand did not stop. Hao Dong sat on the chair on the side.
"Team leader, until now, we have not found a motive for this crime."
Hao Dong looked at the team leader's hand holding the pencil and waving it.
"yes, what is the motive?" Tian Chunda muttered, but he still didn't stop waving his pencil hand.
"Is it theft? I'm afraid it's not likely, right? ”
"Well, I thought so too." Tian Chunda muttered again: "Is it revenge because of resentment or emotional conflict?" But I called the criminal police to investigate, and this is not very likely. Meng Xiangyu doesn't seem to have an extramarital affair, his wife is a very gentle and honest woman, and there is nothing unclear about the relationship between men and women. So it's unlikely to be a love killing. I haven't heard of any enemies between the couple. However, this case was done with someone who knew the victim, which made it unpredictable. Tian Chunda said his thoughts in one breath. He looked up. It's not so much that he's trying to make his point clear, it's more that he's done writing something.
"Ah, the motive is not clear, and there is no other way to let the actual materials sort out this mess. Come on, you take a look at this first. As he spoke, Tian Chunda handed the paper on which he had just written something to Hao Dong. Hao Dong unfolded the paper with both hands and looked at it: this was a thing like a list, and I saw that it was densely written:
(1) Meng Xiangyu. At around 4 p.m. on the 12th, after receiving a call from someone, I went out shortly after. The whereabouts of his body were unknown 14 hours after he was found on the morning of the 13th. According to the autopsy, Meng Xiangyu was killed between 10 p.m. and 1 a.m. Assuming that the Huimin Road Coal Storage Yard is the scene of the crime, the situation will be as follows: Meng Xiangyu left home at about 4 p.m. on the 12th, and his whereabouts are unknown for about 7 hours after that. Between 10 p.m. and 1 p.m., Meng Xiangyu was killed. The whereabouts of the body were unknown for the next six hours. In the meantime, the criminals transferred the body. At 6:30 a.m. on the 13th, the body of the victim was found in the miscellaneous forest in the eastern suburbs.
