Chapter 80: March 9
Since the accident, there have been a lot of people who have been cremated in the past few months, and if you want to determine whether Wang Xuyang is among them, you have to know the date of Wang Xuyang's death.
"Assuming that Wang Xuyang is dead, then the date of his death should be shortly after his disappearance."
Xu Shu gave an idea, from Wang Xuyang's disappearance, to deduce the time of Wang Xuyang's death.
But now they have no way to determine the time of Wang Xuyang's disappearance, and the only way they can use it is to conduct another round of investigation and go to Shijie Township again.
In addition to the people who have left a few rounds of clues in the separate investigation, only Xu Shu, Jiang Qingrui, Lu Team, Xiao Mo and Jiang Wu who came back from Fengdao before can participate in this investigation.
Because the number of people was too small, several people could only start the investigation from the village where Wang Xuyang lived.
Most people can't remember when they last saw Wang Xuyang, and even if they do, they met their relatives years ago, and there is no way to speculate from this.
Seeing that the policemen were going back and forth in the village to find people to ask this question, Wang Xuyang's second uncle couldn't sit still and helped the policemen provide a name.
"You go and find the second son of the Wu family in the east of the village, I heard that he seems to have asked Xuyang to buy chickens after I finished stringing up with my relatives."
Hearing the news, Xu Shu and his team immediately went to Wu's house in the east of the village.
When they found the place, they saw an old man sitting and drinking tea in the yard, and a young man next to him was tidying up the things in the yard.
"Hello, may I ask if your surname is Wu?"
Old Man Wu looked up at the few young people who appeared outside his door, nodded, and then asked the young man who was cleaning up the yard to open the door.
The young man stepped forward to ask them what was the matter, and several of them turned to look at the old man and asked if the old man's second son was at home.
"I am." The young man who opened the door for a few people stepped forward and looked back and forth on several people with curious eyes, "Do you want to look for me?" ”
"We have something we want to ask you, I don't know if it's convenient for you right now."
When the young man heard this, he turned his head to look at his father, and then led everyone to the outside of the courtyard.
"What do you want to ask?"
After avoiding the old man, Jiang Wu took out his police ID card and shook it in front of the second child of the Wu family to let him understand their identity.
The second child of the Wu family suddenly looked at everyone in surprise, and there was a hint of panic in his expression.
He didn't know why he was called out by the police alone for questioning.
"Do you know Wang Xuyang?"
The second child of the Wu family nodded again and again, not daring to lie in front of the police.
"Remember the last time you saw him?"
The second child of the Wu family thought carefully and shook his head.
"I don't remember the exact date, but I remember that when I met him, it was foggy and snowy, and the weather was quite bad."
Heavy fog with light snow?
When the Marines heard about it, they immediately made a note of the weather.
The Lu team is originally from Qinyang, and knows that this kind of weather is not common here.
"Why did you see him that time?"
"I told my dad that I wanted to raise chickens, but my dad didn't let me buy them at the market, and said that I should contact Wang Xuyang, he has a chicken farm, and it is cheaper to buy from him, and I can pick and choose." After the second child of the Wu family finished speaking, he saw a young police officer looking at his yard, and immediately reacted and continued, "I chatted with him that day, but he had something to do, so he didn't take me to the chicken farm to see, and he didn't contact me after he finished doing things, and then I left the village and came back yesterday." ”
It was precisely because he came back yesterday that he saw that his father's yard had not been taken care of for a long time, and he wanted to take care of it today.
They already knew the key information and didn't go any further.
The second child of the Wu family has nothing to do with this matter, and asking too many questions will make the villagers rumor among themselves.
The crowd searched for relevant information on the Internet, but there was no way to check the previous weather forecast, only to find the local meteorological bureau.
When the Meteorological Bureau heard that it was necessary to handle the case, it was very cooperative to call up the weather forecast for nearly half a year, and when they heard that they emphasized that there was no light snow in the fog that day, they immediately locked the date of that day.
"March 9, 2023." The staff zoomed in on the weather map of this day and showed it to several people, "Except for this day, it was two years ago." ”
This kind of weather is rare in the local area, and it is easy to lock in the date information.
Therefore, the date of Wang Xuyang's disappearance is March 9, 2023.
After determining the date of this day, Xu Shu immediately took people to the crematorium where Zhao Wanlin worked, first arrested Zhao Wanlin, asked him to cooperate with the investigation and make a record again, and then retrieved the cremation record of the funeral home.
They got the list of people who were cremated by Zhao Wanlin in the ten days after March 9.
There are five people on the list, but strangely, all five of them have complete cremation procedures.
"I really don't know, you keep asking me about Wang Xuyang, I only know that there is such a person as him."
Zhao Yilin looked at the two police officers in front of him and seemed to be in a hurry.
"Zhao Yilin, Wang Xuyang is dead, do you know about this matter?"
Hearing the policeman's words, Zhao Yilin first showed a shocked expression, and then seemed to want to react to something, staring at the police officer in front of him with wide eyes.
"Comrade policeman, you don't suspect me of being a murderer, do you?"
The two police officers did not speak, and Zhao Yilin's brows became deeper and deeper.
"Comrade policeman, I don't even know what Wang Xuyang looks like, and besides, I may not be able to beat Wang Xuyang, how can I kill Wang Xuyang?"
In the room next to the interrogation room, Jiang Qingrui heard Zhao Yilin's defense, and immediately raised her eyes to stare at Zhao Wanlin, who was explaining.
When this interrogation was over, Jiang Qingrui grabbed Xu Shu.
"Zhao Yilin is wrong."
Xu Shu also felt the same, but he still asked Jiang Qingrui why he thought something was wrong with Zhao Qilin.
"When Wang Xuyang was wanted in the previous round of the country, Wang Xuyang's height and weight were already written on the table. According to Zhao Yilin's reaction when he knew that Wang Xuyang and Zhang Huixian conspired to kill him, it was impossible not to search for information about Wang Xuyang afterwards. Speaking of this, Jiang Qingrui paused, and saw that Xu Shu did not raise any objections, so he continued, "Zhao Qilin is taller than Wang Xuyang and stronger than Wang Xuyang, but now he deliberately pretends not to know Wang Xuyang's height and weight, emphasizing that he may not be able to beat him, this is a disguise." ”
The more they pretend that they haven't seen Wang Xuyang and don't know Wang Xuyang's information, the more suspicious they are.
Xu Shu also decided that Zhao Yilin was suspicious, and immediately told the Lu team about it. After hearing this, the Lu team looked at Zhao Yilin's interrogation record and focused on drawing a few points.
"Inform the police to expand the scope of the investigation and obtain all the names of those who have been cremated through the hands of Zhao Yilin."
