"I also tend to have an adulterous relationship, but the results of the investigation show that he has no adultery, and his friends around him have not heard that he is talking about his girlfriend again, and even his ex-wife said that he does not have any indiscriminate women."

Mao Ji told everyone the results of the investigation, and at first he suspected that it was adultery, but after investigation, there were no clues.

"Could that be his ex-wife?"

Instructor Su Jiayi's words immediately stopped everyone, and no one spoke.

"Is this ex-wife also considered adultery? This can be regarded as a revival of old love at most, but from Mu Xingjuan's tone, she should not remarry the deceased. ”

Mao Ji shook his head and dismissed the idea.

In a general case, when the wife dies, the first object of suspicion by the police is the husband, and similarly, when the husband dies, the first suspect of the police is the wife.

But both of them have been divorced for three years, is it still necessary to make trouble with you?

"Could that be his ex-wife's adultery? The ex-wife found the current one, and the deceased couldn't stand it, so he went to make trouble, and was finally killed? Zhou Yan's eyes lit up, and she thought of this possibility.

After Cao Gang listened, he did not refute.

The most important criminal police officer must make bold assumptions and be careful in the spirit of verification.

So he looked at Mao Ji and asked, "Has Mu Xingjuan found a partner?" ”

Mao Ji nodded and said: "She found a boyfriend, and I heard her say that she opened a mahjong parlor, but Mu Xingjuan said that the two had nothing to do with each other, and I didn't hear that the deceased went to his mahjong parlor to make trouble, so it shouldn't kill anyone, right?" ”

"Since there is such a possibility, let's investigate and investigate, this matter will be left to you and Li Xiang."

"Yes."

As long as there is the slightest possibility, the police will not give up the investigation.

After the meeting, Li Xiangben and Mao Ji went to Mu Xingjuan's clothing store again and asked her about her boyfriend.

When she learned that Li Xiang was coming, Mu Xingjuan immediately denied it:

"It can't be him, during this time, we are basically together at night, it can't be him."

"All together? You were also together on the night of the 10th? ”

"Yes, together." Mu Xingjuan said affirmatively.

"By the way, do you know this person?" Mao Ji took out the surveillance photos that had just been cleared by the technical police of the graphic investigation from his bag, which was the picture of the murderer throwing the body at 2:20 a.m. on April 10 for Mu Xingjuan to identify.

But after all, it was too dark at that time, and even if the picture was made clear, it was still slightly blurry, but it was much better than before.

After Mu Xingjuan saw the photo, she recognized the car in the photo at a glance: "This is my ex-husband's car." ”

"We already know this to the police, let's talk about what we don't know."

"It's too dark, and it's too far away, I can't see who it is."

"Then it's convenient to talk about your boyfriend's situation? What is his name and where does he open a mahjong parlor? ”

Although Mu Xingjuan told them that they were all together on the night of the 10th, it could not be ruled out that they were suspected of covering up each other, and the police still had to verify whether they were lying.

"His name is Cheng Jiangbo, and he opened a Cheng Feng Breaking Waves mahjong parlor on Xingjian Road, which is his mobile phone number 131***."

construction of roads,

Li Xiang They found the mahjong parlor called Cheng Feng Polang on the side of the road, and saw the police who appeared in the mahjong parlor in a police uniform, and the people who were playing cards subconsciously threw cards and left, thinking that they had encountered a gambler.

Li Xiang and the others couldn't stop these people who fled in the wilderness, the mahjong hall was in a mess, mahjong fell to the ground, and even a few banknotes fell to the ground and didn't have time to pick them up.

The panic in the hall suddenly led to a person.

This person is 170cm tall and has a fat body, which is indeed not similar to the figure of the murderer in the surveillance video that night.

"Two police officers, I'm not gambling, I'm just providing a place for entertainment, and I don't participate in pumping."

The boss also thought that he had encountered a gambler, and quickly explained.

"From the Public Security Bureau, you are the boss Cheng Jiangbo?"

"Ah, yes." Cheng Jiangbo nodded again and again.

"Do you know Hao Lianshan?"

"I know, Xiaojuan's ex-husband, I have met a few times, I heard Xiaojuan say that he was killed, he died a miserable death, has the murderer been caught?"

"That's not what you should be asking about." The case is still in the stage of secret investigation, and all the details of the case need to be kept secret and cannot be disclosed to the public.

Subsequently, Li Xiang and they asked him about his itinerary during this time, especially on the 8th and 9th, he basically stayed in the store, and there was a surveillance video in the store as evidence, he had no time to commit the crime, and Li Xiang basically ruled out his suspicion.

Just when Li Xiang's clues were interrupted, there was good news on Team Cao's side.

Mao Ji received a call from Cao's team, asking them to immediately go to an old-fashioned residential building on Jiang'an Road, where the water company found the household with abnormal water use, and on the 8th and 9th, the household used 7 tons of water.

Such a large amount of water consumption is obviously beyond the normal water consumption of residents, unless someone's faucet bursts and the water keeps flowing there, it will reach such a water consumption.

When Li Xiang and they arrived at the scene, Cao Gang had already taken the technical police to investigate the scene.

"Team Cao, we're here."

Mao Ji walked over to report to Cao Gang, who nodded when he saw them coming, "How are you guys?" ”

"Cheng Jiangbo didn't have the time to commit the crime, and his body size was fat, which didn't match the murderer in the video."

While talking, a technical police officer came over and said to Cao Gang: "Team Cao, confirmed, this is the scene of the first crime, although the bathroom was washed clean by the murderer, but we still extracted biological sample information in the cracks of the sewer, the house was cleaned very clean, no fingerprints were found, only some hair was found, I don't know whose it is, and we have to do DNA extraction and comparison, at the same time, we found a kit under the bed, suspected to be the kit that the deceased carried when he went out on the 8th." ”

"Great, what about the landlord? Let's talk to him. ”

This old house, in fact, is similar to Li Xiang's situation, it is all rented out of the old house, the landlord bought a new house, the old house is not valuable, and it is also put away, so it is simply rented out, and it can also be subsidized every month.

When he received a call from the police, he was also nervous, if his house really had a murder, how would he rent it out in the future?

I'm afraid that after I know about it, no tenant will dare to rent.

If you want to sell it, it's even less valuable.

It's bad luck.

I just hope it's a false positive.

But the first words of the police that called him over shattered his illusions.

"I'm basically sure that this is the scene of the first crime, who are you renting this house to?"

The landlord is a man in his sixties, and when he heard the news, he really wanted to die: "The one who suffered a thousand cuts, it's not good to find anyone, but I came to Huohuo my house, I'm really unlucky." ”

The uncle in his sixties was actually forced to cry.

After wiping away two handfuls of tears, he said: "I have a rental agreement, which was called to me by my daughter at the time, and I brought it." ”

As he spoke, he took out the rental contract from his arms: "This house has been rented for less than a month, and this kind of thing happened, I never thought that this would be a thousand cuts." ”

Haven't rented a house for less than a month?

Hearing what the landlord said, Li Xiang suddenly had an ominous premonition, I am afraid that this house was used by the murderer to kill people and divide the body.

From beginning to end, the murderer's modus operandi has definitely been planned for a long time.

The anti-reconnaissance capabilities are very strong.

If this is the case, then the so-called rental contract may not give much useful value to the police.

Sure enough, after Cao Gang got the rental contract, he immediately checked the ID number on it and found that it could not be found, and this set of ID numbers was fake.

"This ID information is fake, have you seen that person?"

Cao Gang frowned, things were really not so simple, but he still asked for some details.

"I've seen it, that person came once when he signed the contract, his eyes are small, he has a hooked nose, and he has an inch head."

The old man's hand was gesturing, trying his best to recall the details of the person's appearance at that time, after all, the interval was not long, less than a month, and he was quite impressed.

Seeing that the old man remembered it more clearly, Cao Gang suddenly thought that he could ask the portrait experts from the provincial department to come over and help reproduce the portrait of the suspect, which would be of great help to them to solve the case.

"Okay, old man, what does the suspect look like, you must remember, in two days, I will invite the portrait experts in the province to come over, and I will ask you to help portray the appearance of the suspect at that time."

So far, the landlord is the only person who has seen the true face of the murderer, and is an important witness.

"Hey, Li Xiang, what are you painting?"

At this time, Mao Ji, who was standing next to Li Xiang, suddenly heard the sound of 'brushing' the tip of the pen grinding the paper, turned his head to look, but saw him holding the pen and drawing something on the notebook?

Li Xiang did not answer Mao Ji's words, but listened carefully to the description of the suspect by the old man of the landlord, and kept sketching the lines of the characters on the handwriting book, and slowly, a sketch portrait gradually plumped up in his hand.

"Are you painting a portrait of a suspect?"

After looking at Mao Ji for a while, he suddenly found that Li Xiang had drawn a few lines casually from the person described by the old man of the landlord, and it was so vivid, which showed that his art skills were extraordinary.

His voice also attracted everyone's attention, Cao Gang was thinking about immediately calling the experts of the provincial department and asking someone to come over to help, but suddenly heard Mao Ji say: Are you painting a portrait of a suspect?

Who is painting the suspect portrait?

Do they have such talent in their ranks?

How did he not know?

With questions, Cao Gang turned around and saw that everyone had surrounded Li Xiang in the middle, and they let out amazing sighs one by one:

"Damn, this sketch is too good, isn't it?"

"Yes, a few simple strokes can achieve such an effect, and the Central Academy of Fine Arts is nothing more than that, right?"

"Li Xiang, you still studied art?"

Cao Gang took a closer look, and was immediately attracted by the characters in the painting: "Isn't this the person the landlord said just now?" Inch head small eyes eagle hook nose! ”

As soon as he was excited, he hurriedly separated the crowd, snatched the book from Li Xiang's hand, and turned his head to show it to the landlord.

"It's him, it's him, who painted this? It's too much of a resemblance. ”

When the old landlord saw this portrait, his heart was excited, and he pointed to the person on the portrait with a trembling heart, but he didn't expect the police to be so powerful, so he actually drew the other party according to a few words he casually described.

I've never seen anything so outrageous when I'm so big.

If he hadn't seen this with his own eyes, he really didn't believe that there were people in this world who could do this.

"Really?"

"It's just like someone else's drawing, it's amazing, old man, I've lived for so many years, and it's the first time I've seen such a hanging."

Cao Gang didn't care about the excited old man, but took the portrait and handed it to Zhou Yan and said: "Immediately send this painting back to the city bureau, send a notice to the whole country to investigate and find out this person." ”

"Yes, Team Cao."

Zhou Yan took the notebook, and was immediately impressed by Li Xiang's superb painting skills, he didn't expect his painting skills to be so good, it was really a blockbuster.

"Li Xiang, you are too powerful, I didn't expect you to hide such a skill."

"When I was a child, I liked to draw, and I learned a little bit." Li Xiang smiled, but he didn't expect that the hidden skill Skull Restoration Technique rewarded by the dungeon was not used, but its side skill painting skills were demonstrated.

Sure enough, at any time, there is a lot of skill and no pressure.

Because you don't know when you're going to use it.

"Is this a point? That's 100 million points! ”

"It's too modest."

Cao Gang now looks at Li Xiang, the more he looks at it, the more satisfied he becomes, and he admires Feng Da's wise decision even more in his heart.

Feng Dazhen was discerning and dug a thousand-mile horse into their criminal investigation team.

"Li Xiang, you did me a big favor this time, I was just thinking about it, I want to call the portrait experts of the provincial department and ask them to come over to help paint it, but I didn't expect you to give me a big surprise, in the future, we Jinghai, there will also be portrait experts."

"I don't dare to be an expert, if I need it in the future, just look for me."

Once the portrait of the suspect is drawn, the rest of the work is much easier.

After the investigation report was issued, it quickly received feedback from the police of the Jiang'an Police Station.

They called Team Cao directly and said they knew about this person.

This person's name is Ma Yongwei, 46 years old this year, is a habitual offender cracked down by the public security organs, stealing chickens and touching dogs, chickens and dogs, and gambling addiction These negative idioms can be used on him, but this person is very smart, he often enters the palace, for the police to handle the case, he can be said to be more familiar with the police than the intern police, some of the junior qualifications, can't hold him at all, therefore, the police of the Jiang'an Police Station are very headaches for him.

After knowing the identity of the suspect, the criminal investigation team investigated his whereabouts as soon as possible, and learned that he was seen as early as April 12, that is, when the police investigated the scene, and he happened to be seen by where he was passing, so he bought a ticket overnight and fled to Guiyang.

Cao Gang immediately issued an order to the Guiyang police to assist in the arrest, and it didn't take long for Ma Yongwei to be arrested by the Guiyang police in a KTV.

Li Xiang and Mao Ji went on a business trip to Guiyang again, and on April 20, they successfully escorted Ma Yongwei back to Jinghai City.
