Chapter 13: Widow Zhang
The Serious Crime Team followed the SWAT team to search the mountain for a day, and the SWAT killed a wild wolf that attacked us and anesthetized two wild wolves that broke through the anti-wolf net.
The SWAT returned the two anesthetized wolves to the nature reserve, and repaired the holes in the anti-wolf netting to protect the safety of the villagers in Tulong.
The SWAT officers relieved the wolves, completed the task, and prepared to call it a day and go down the mountain. Our Serious Crime Team has been busy for a day, and we have not found any clues.
"Are we busy today?" Jiang Tingbai asked breathlessly.
"Not completely, after all, we ruled out the possibility of throwing corpses into the mountains." I said lightly, and then spread my hands helplessly.
"Ruling out the possibility of melon thieves and throwing corpses deep into the mountains, the only clue we have left now is the footprints of that woman." Li Meng took a deep breath and muttered.
We also went down the hill with the SWAT team, and after a busy day, we had to return all our attention to the case itself.
On the way, we again analyzed and discussed the facts of the case.
There are three most direct motives for homicide: for money, for love, and for revenge.
Su Dakui is a big melon grower, and what he has cultivated is the well-known Tulong watermelon, needless to say, the watermelon in the field is wealth. However, after Su Dakui's disappearance, it was a theft gang that stole the melons, and it had nothing to do with this case.
Su Dakui is honest, has a good reputation, and has dedicated his life to Tulong Watermelon, he will not and has no time and energy to make enemies with others, not to mention that he is an old man who is nearly seventy years old.
Then there is love killing, according to Su Dakui's daughter, Su Dakui has no good relationship, and he has no idea of finding a wife. But the footprints of the woman were found at the scene of the crime, and Jiang Tingbai found the smell of perfume again.
In any case, love murder has become the focus of our case investigation.
After descending the mountain, we began to screen all the women in Tulong Township who met the criminal profile according to the previous investigation plan.
"I took the technical team to the site of the watermelon field to have a look."
We were about to set off to conduct a door-to-door investigation and visit, when Jiang Tingbai suddenly said something.
"Okay, let's go check it out again." I thought about it, nodded and agreed.
Jiang Tingbai's expression was serious, he greeted the members of the technical team, and left with the tools of the on-site investigation.
Looking at their backs, Lin Zifan smiled helplessly: "This Jiang Tingbai, every time he encounters this kind of physical work, he finds a chance to slip away." ”
I also smiled bitterly: "If he doesn't slip away, he won't be an old dog." But there is one thing we can rest assured, although he likes to be lazy, he is definitely an idle person. In this way, let him investigate the scene a second time, and maybe find clues that we ignored before. ”
We have obtained a list of female persons in Tulong Township who meet the criminal profile, and there are more than 20 people on it, all of whom are divorced, widowed, or married in name only, and have been separated for a long time.
In fact, this situation is still relatively common in the countryside, and everyone has long been surprised.
These personnel are the focus of our investigation, but in order to get more clues, we still let the police from the township police station come in and conduct door-to-door investigations.
Our serious crime team took the list and went to the first house, the woman of this family is surnamed Zhang, 43 years old this year, her husband died in a landslide when he went down the mine as a miner eight years ago, and the government compensated a lot of money. She has a son who dropped out of high school a few years ago and is now working outside the home.
Everyone calls her Widow Zhang, and although the nickname is a bit unpleasant, she seems to enjoy it. For so many years, she has not remarried, but this does not represent her chaste character, but she has not yet figured out who to marry.
After all, the villagers said that she had not lacked men for so many years.
"This is still a legend, I'm really curious about what kind of woman this widow Zhang is." I sneered and walked into the courtyard of Widow Zhang's house with everyone.
The yard is very clean and tidy, the firewood in the corner is neatly arranged, stacked more than one person high, and the water tank in the yard is also full of water.
"It seems that in the past eight years, Widow Zhang's family has indeed not lacked men." Lin Zifan looked at the firewood and water tank in the yard and said with a smile.
"Is this Widow Zhang so attractive?" Li Meng couldn't help frowning, feeling more and more curious.
In this way, all of us, with puzzled looks, knocked on the door of Widow Zhang's house.
The person who opened the door to us was a woman, she was the famous widow Zhang of Tulong Township.
"Who are you looking for?" Widow Zhang asked.
She is of medium height, with a square face, short thick black hair, and bright eyes, and although she lives in the countryside all year round, her skin is very well maintained because she does not often work in the fields.
In my opinion, she has a passerby face, and even disappears into the crowd, except that the square face is a characteristic, there is nothing extraordinary, and it is really not beautiful.
But I have to say that in this rural environment, she is barely a beautiful woman.
At this time, she was leaning against the door, munching on melon seeds, while looking at us.
"Your name is Zhang Meiyu?" I steadied myself and asked earnestly.
"yes, who are you? Bah. Widow Zhang replied lightly, and then turned her head and took a sip.
She didn't spit on us, but spit out the skin of melon seeds stuck to her tongue.
"We are the criminal police of the Ningzhou City Public Security Bureau, and there are some things we need to know from you." I showed her my police ID and said solemnly.
Zhang Meiyu was still leaning against the door, her face was not wavering, and she looked at us while munching on melon seeds: "Police? I'm a widow and an unemployed person, what is there to investigate? ”
"Su Dakui, do you know each other?" I asked in a deep voice.
"Su Dakui?" Zhang Meiyu was still leaning on the door frame just now, and when she heard this name, she instantly stood up straight and looked at us in a daze: "I know, what's wrong?" ”
"Can we go in and talk?" I watched her change in expression and said lightly.
Zhang Meiyu's eyes blinked, turned sideways, and let us into the house.
As soon as we entered the house, we smelled a somewhat pungent smell of perfume.
Although we had no way of telling if the perfume smell was the one Jiang Tingbai smelled in the shack, it still caught our attention.
Zhang Meiyu's home is deserted and simple, and she doesn't have too many furnishings in her home, which looks very empty.
Zhang Meiyu sat directly on the sofa, stilting Erlang's legs, still eating the melon seeds in her hands, and her eyes glanced at us intentionally or unintentionally.
