Chapter 15: Striking the Grass and Startling the Snake

After a morning of visits and investigations by our team, we collected clues at the entrance of the village, although we still did not investigate any valuable clues, but we agreed that the deceased's sister Tao Yunjiao and brother-in-law Wei Xuecheng were a little strange.

But we can't say exactly what is strange, but we just think that their performance is a little abnormal.

"Now it is certain that Wei Xuecheng and Chen Xuechun have known each other for a long time, and they should be college classmates." I spoke first, earnestly.

Lin Zifan stuffed a mouthful of bread into his mouth and made a somewhat muffled voice: "This matter needs to be carefully investigated to see if they have any emotional entanglements during their college years." ”

"That's right, if there is really an emotional entanglement between them, such as they were once in a relationship, but were forced to break up because of something. So now that they have become sisters-in-law and brother-in-law, it is entirely possible that there will be a deformed love. Xue Hang said lightly and took a bite of the compressed biscuit.

"If Wei Xuecheng really has anything to do with his sister-in-law Chen Xuechun, then why did he kill her?" Lin Zifan asked a little puzzled.

"I think this case has a lot to do with Chen Xuechun's initiative to divorce. Maybe after Chen Xuechun filed for divorce, he would elope with Wei Xuecheng, but Wei Xuecheng also has a family. Xiao Ligong opened the trunk of the police car and handed each of us a bottle of mineral water.

"So, the homicide happened. After Wei Xuecheng learned that Chen Xuechun had given up the divorce, he became angry and killed people with passion. Li Meng said lightly and took a bite of bread.

"It is worthy of being the master of crime profiling in our serious crime team, from the first time I arrived at the scene of the crime, I keenly felt that this was a love murder case." Lin Zifan said with a smile.

After listening to this, Xiao Ligong looked at Li Meng with admiration: "Are you a criminal profiler?" ”

Li Meng nodded a little embarrassedly, and said weakly: "Although he is a criminal profiler, he has not helped everyone for such a long time and so many cases." ”

"Haha." Lin Zifan smiled and said: "In fact, the crime profile does not need to summarize the murderer at one time, every one of your analysis based on the crime scene belongs to the crime profile." And many times, the scene does not leave any traces for us at all, and sometimes even in cases where we have not even found the first crime scene and the body, such as the case of missing persons, it is difficult to do a criminal profile. ”

I also smiled and said, "Look at this time, didn't you just analyze this case of love murder through the scene of the crime?" Isn't this the perfect crime profile? ”

Li Meng was suddenly praised by us like this, and lowered his head a little embarrassed, and kept eating the bread in his hand.

I stuffed the last piece of bread into my mouth, then unscrewed the mineral water and took a sip, and said seriously: "Now, Wei Xuecheng is suspected of committing a major crime, and Wei Xuecheng's wife, Tao Yunjiao, seems to know something hidden. ”

"Do you want to bring Tao Yunjiao back to the criminal police team for interrogation?" Xiao Ligong suddenly looked at me and asked.

I thought about it and shook my head: "Everything is speculation now, there is no actual evidence of accusations, even if Wei Xuecheng and Tao Yunjiao are brought back to the interrogation room, we can't do anything without evidence." The top priority now is to find evidence, especially the murder weapon in this case. ”

Xiao Ligong nodded and continued to ask me: "Then will our investigation and visit continue?" ”

At this moment, I hesitated a little and asked everyone, "What do you think?" ”

Everyone also showed great hesitation, although Wei Xuecheng and Tao Yunjiao were suspected of committing major crimes, but there was no evidence now.

If there is no evidence, there is no suspicion, and there is no doubt about the guilt.

At the end of the day, we still don't have any clues.

"I think we should continue to investigate and continue to look for clues. If we withdraw now, we will be startled. Lin Zifan gave his own thoughts.

But Xue Hang had a different opinion: "The murderer must be someone from the village, we might as well come to a real 'scare the snake' and tell everyone that we have mastered major clues and let the murderer jump out by himself." ”

"You mean, whoever jumps out first is the murderer?" Xiao Ligong looked at Xue Hang seriously.

Xue Hang pondered for a moment and said lightly: "The murderer is likely to attempt to escape in the near future, and he will definitely not continue to stay in the village and wait for us to arrest him." ”

I agreed with Xue Hang's opinion and chimed in: "Based on the standard of preparing to leave the village in the near future, whoever wants to leave will be suspicious." Don't forget that the murderer in this case is not sure that there is only one person for the time being, and it is very likely that it was a gang crime. ”

"But how do we get the news out?" Xiao Ligong suddenly asked.

At this time, Li Meng and I glanced at each other and smiled.

Because we've come up with a brilliant solution.

That is the Liujiapu Village commissary not far away.

After a quick bite of lunch, Li Meng and I walked towards the commissary again.

And we clearly saw that Lao Xiao, the owner of the commissary, was hiding behind the window, observing our movements, intentionally or unintentionally.

"Old Xiao! Old Shaw! "As soon as we met, I shouted directly.

This shout frightened Lao Xiao suddenly.

He hurried up to us and asked in a trembling voice, "...... you Are you police officers? ”

I smiled, "yes." ”

"Ah...... Oh......" The corners of Lao Xiao's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked at us with some embarrassment.

"Lao Xiao, come to pack cigarettes, panda brand." I smiled and deliberately didn't look at him.

Lao Xiao answered, walked into the counter, and took me a pack of Panda brand cigarettes from the cigarette rack.

After paying for the money, Lao Xiao began to gossip again.

"How's your investigation going today? Did you catch the murderer? Lao Xiao asked weakly.

I sneered and said solemnly, "I can't tell you the progress of the case, it's confidential." ”

After listening to me, Lao Xiao smiled and said lightly: "Aren't I also worried and afraid, there are dead people in the village, and the murderer has not been caught, so we don't dare to go out at night." ”

After listening to him, Li Meng suddenly interjected and said, "Didn't you tell us in the morning that you don't do bad things, aren't you afraid of ghosts knocking on the door?" And say that you don't owe love debts, what are you afraid of? ”

Li Meng's words directly made Lao Xiao speechless, he didn't know what to say for a while, and the scene was very embarrassing for a while.

"Don't worry, we have a major clue, and we have locked up the suspect, the murderer will definitely not be able to escape, you just put your heart in your stomach" I said in a tone that pretended not to care.
