The Devil is Lurking By Your Side - Chapter 121
The three returned to the Public Security Bureau again in the evening. When they saw that Officer Tang had not yet returned, they quickly ate dinner in the cafeteria of the Public Security Bureau.
It was not until they were full that Officer Tang appeared in the canteen.
“Officer Tang, eat first.” Lin Xin beckoned to him when she saw him.
“It’s okay, I’ve eaten bread casually in the car. I don’t have time. Let’s discuss the results first.” Police Officer Tang reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, looking very anxious.
He has always been impatient, and Lin Xin came to the conclusion after spending a few days with him. If there are no major incidents in the city, Officer Tang is a bold and talkative person, but once a case occurs, his acute character will be revealed immediately, and he can be said to be a very cute old man.
Lin Xin smiled and nodded, and then walked with him into the conference hall.
When they stepped into the conference hall together, Officer Tang sat on a chair in the middle of the table, straightened up, and attentively wanted to hear Lin Xin’s findings.
Unexpectedly, after the other party took a look at him, he only said indifferently: “We haven’t found anything, so why don’t you tell us what you found out as Police Officer Tang.”
After Police Officer Tang listened, he couldn’t help but open his mouth, looking at Lin Xin in an incredible way. As a police officer in the Federal Bureau, or Director Wang’s right-hand man, how could there be no results?
My inquiry in XX University was not as smooth as I thought before, so I wanted to ask Lin Xin to see if she had any new clues to comfort him after his defeat.
Unexpectedly, she told herself and found nothing?
How can this be?
The disappointed look in the cute old man’s eyes made Lin Xin feel secretly funny, but she still said to him faintly: “Officer Tang, you can talk about your results first, and we will ponder it together.”
Officer Tang sighed helplessly, and said, “I don’t actually have any new clues here. I just found some answers that we can guess.”
“It’s okay, Police Officer Tang will tell us.” Lin Xin later sat on a chair and raised her eyes and said to Police Officer Tang. At the same time, there was a gleam in her eyes, which made Officer Tang couldn’t help but feel refreshed.
“Okay.” He only said yes, then stood up and walked to the front of the conference hall, standing in front and looking at Lin Xin and others.
He cleared his throat and said: “We just saw Zheng Zhiqiang, Lu Feng and Dong Hongwei’s roommate Xiaozhen, as well as several other classmates and teachers who had contact with Dong Hongwei. Zheng Zhiqiang is still the same as before, greedy for life and fear of death. It’s just that. , When I saw him today, he was a lot thinner than usual. It was also because of two consecutive murders in Longshi that he became a little unhealthy, and these two murders finally made him feel better. After all, the two female deceased were girlfriends who had been in a relationship with him. Now, they both died, making him the biggest suspect in an instant, but he kept saying that he was not a murderer. I see him It didn’t look like he was lying, so I believed him for the time being.”
Lin Xin gave an “um”, stroking her chin, and said, “I don’t think he is a murderer. Judging from his greedy attitude and fear of death, I feel that he is afraid of even raising a knife and will not kill someone. Besides, the two girls are stubbornly desperate for him, so that he won’t lose love and kill them.”
“Yes, I think so too. Later, we found Lu Feng again. After he heard our news, he became stupid and cried. This boy has a deep affection for Dong Hongwei, very different from Zheng Zhiqiang. Then, I don’t think he killed Dong Hongwei, because he kept telling us that he accompanied the deceased woman to a drink last Friday, and also firmly said that if he personally sent Dong Hongwei home that night, then Dong Hongwei would not be caught. Killing. He also said that everything was his fault, so I was very self-blame. It took me more than a day to calm his emotions, alas…” Police Officer Tang could not help but sighed again.
“Well, Lu Feng’s suspicion is also very small. That’s because he honestly explained all the experience he had contacted Dong Hongwei, and did not hide it at all. If he really killed Dong Hongwei, then he should have gone far away instead of coming to the Public Security Bureau. I’ve been in the net. So what did Dong Hongwei’s roommate Xiaozhen say?” Lin Xin sat up straight at this time, sitting in the conference hall, looking forward to what Police Officer Tang wanted to say next.
Officer Tang looked at Lin Xin’s appearance and felt slightly curious. He didn’t understand why Lin Xin paid so much attention to what Xiaozhen said. Did she guess something?
Although Officer Tang was full of doubts, he still said everything Xiaozhen said to them just now.
He said: “Xiaozhen and Dong Hongwei have been roommates for three years. She said that although Dong Hongwei is proud by nature, she is still good to her, so after the two have been roommates for three years, they have been in peace. It’s just that. Dong Hongwei had a boyfriend in her sophomore year, that was Zheng Zhiqiang, and then she moved out of the dormitory and moved directly into Zheng Zhiqiang’s house. However, Zheng Zhiqiang later transferred and fell in love with her, and after breaking up with her, she cried again It made trouble again, but moved back to the dormitory again when there was no other way. Xiaozhen said that since Dong Hongwei was broken up, she took the initiative to find Zheng Zhiqiang many times. Later, she felt that Zheng Zhiqiang could not find Dong Hongwei often to find herself, so she again I started to get back together with her, and then told her that he would break up with his current girlfriend. However, Zheng Zhiqiang did not break up with Chen Yanling later, and to the outsiders, Zheng Zhiqiang actually wanted to step on two boats. However, Dong Hongwei was often around There was a man with her, and that was Lu Feng. When Dong Hongwei saw that Zheng Zhiqiang never broke up with Chen Yanling, she began to drink in the bar, and Lu Feng continued to accompany her during this period. She later advised Dong Hongwei to have a clean break with Zheng Zhiqiang. , Tried to accept Lu Feng, but Dong Hongwei never agreed, saying that he could not let Zheng Zhiqiang go.”
After hearing the whole story, Lin Xin saw that the confessions of Xiaoying, Xiaozhen, Zheng Zhiqiang, and Lu Feng were the same, and there were no flaws, so she believed the story and love history between these people for the time being. .
“What happened later?” Lin Xin asked.
“Actually, there is no later. Then, we asked her if there had been an incident of theft of underwear in her dormitory, but Xiaozhen said no, saying that this incident had never happened in their dormitory.”
After hearing this, Lin Xin nodded, caressing immediately appeared in her head.
“So, did Principal Huang mention surveillance for us?” Lin Xin asked again.
“Yes. We watched the video in his office. The man who stole Chen Yanling and Xiaoying’s underwear is the Cai brothers. So, this proves that the Cai brothers did not lie.” Police Officer Tang said.
“Well, forgive Cai Jiazhen for not daring to lie.” Lin Xin said lightly.
“What then? Did you get any clues?” Lin Xin asked, looking up at Officer Tang.
“No. We asked the teachers and classmates who had contacted Dong Hongwei. Everyone unanimously stated that they had never seen Dong Hongwei since last Friday.” Officer Tang said again, his tone of voice revealed. disappointment.
“Okay, then I understand. Officer Tang, it’s really hard work for you.” Lin Xin smiled slightly at him.
“What about Officer Lin? What did you find?” Officer Tang returned to the position where he had been sitting before and couldn’t wait to look at Lin Xin, hoping to hear her insightful explanation.
Lin Xin stood up at this time, walked to the meeting hall, lowered her head and thought. I saw her wandering back and forth in the conference hall, not knowing what she was thinking.
After a long time, she finally stopped, and suddenly said: “My answer is the same as before, and no significant results have been found, but I have some ideas.”
“Ouch, Officer Lin, just say it quickly.” At this moment, Officer Tang couldn’t sit still anymore and urged.
Lin Xin smiled at him again, her face also showed incomparable determination, she said: “We asked the manager in the bar, she said that she did not notice the woman dancing with Lu Feng, but she did. It is true that Lu Feng and Dong Hongwei came to drink at her bar last Friday night. Combining your findings with Officer Tang, I can draw you a conclusion that the murderer probably knew Zheng Zhiqiang, Lu Feng, or even Xiaoying and One of Xiaozhen!”
“What?!” When Lin Xin said this, the three people below asked in unison, with very surprised expressions on their faces at the same time.
Lin Xin suddenly curled her lips and smiled: “He not only met one of them, he also met Chen Yanling and Dong Hongwei. It was not so coincidental that he met the female victim by chance. It’s been a long time. Of course, he also knew Peng Jingchun directly, so this man is probably a murderer lurking next to me.”
What? The murderer lurking beside Lin Xin?
Who would it be?
Yang Cong and others immediately turned to look at the people next to them. Everyone just look at me, I look at you, it’s a little unclear.
“Of course, this man has nothing to do with you, so don’t be nervous, haha.” Lin Xin said to them with a smile.
“Sister Lin, don’t be scared to death!” Mei Hua was so scared that her face was blue and her lips were pale, and her voice trembled.
“Didn’t I tell you? As long as you don’t do bad things, you won’t be surprised if you knock on the door in the middle of the night.” Lin Xin showed a sweet smile, but her smile hides her insight into the identity of the murderer and the movement of the crime. terror.
It makes people feel a little scared.
“I’ll analyze my opinion for you.” Lin Xin said again after seeing the three people pause.
“The bar manager said she did not remember seeing this strange woman dancing with Lu Feng, so I think she doesn’t come to this bar often, but her appearance is definitely not accidental. She probably knew the murderer, maybe He got a certain benefit from the murderer, so he deceived Dong Hongwei for him. Since she does not appear often, the murderer will not often appear in the Dragon City. However, since the murderer knows the topography of the Dragon City, he should know too There are several cheap hotels near the bar, so I probably took Dong Hongwei to one of them. As for why he knows the topography so clearly, it’s because he probably grew up in Longshi, but then left Longshi. I went out to make a living, so I rarely come back here. So the second point is, why did the two female deceased who were found dead in Longshi so coincidentally known these classmates? Even if they didn’t know each other directly, they both Knowing the existence of the other party, this is why no flaws were found when the confession was admitted to them. As for why this is the case, it is because a chain of relationships has been formed among them. So, now I can think of the murderer very much. It is possible that I knew one of these people and formed the same chain of relationships unknowingly, and thus got to know Dong Hongwei and Chen Yanling. This is why I came to the conclusion that the murderer knew one of them tonight. .”
“Oh… So that’s it… Then, Officer Lin, how did the murderer know these classmates?” Officer Tang suddenly realized, and at the same time asked curiously.
“I don’t know about this. However, my thoughts may be the direction for us to continue investigating this case. And what we have to do next is to figure out the identity of this strange woman dancing with Lu Feng, so that we can learn from She tells who is the devil who really killed the three dead women!”
When Lin Xin said this, she couldn’t help but raise her voice. In her heart, she faintly guessed the identity and true face of the murderer, but she has no evidence yet, so all she can do is to extract the truth from the mouths of strange women, and then extract the murderer from the mouths of these classmates. , And finally nailed the murderer to the court!
