Chapter 20 first quarter

Zheng Jian led Wang Zhen and Shen Min to Qiuxiang Villa immediately.Although the sweetness of sweet-scented osmanthus is still rippling in the autumn wind, except for Zheng Jian who said in a tasteful tone: "It's really intoxicating!" Xiao Wang and Xiao Shen couldn't be intoxicated. According to the police from the local police station, after the tragedy at Qiuxiang Villa, they had sent people to spy on them. After receiving a call from Zheng Jian yesterday evening, they sent four people to take turns to be on duty. Mo Cai went home at six o'clock. Came out alone.Could it be that Mo Cai disappeared?

Gu Ling had an obvious look of panic on her face, and she talked about the process of Mo Cai's disappearance: Yesterday evening, Mo just came home, didn't even eat, sighed and cursed at others, I don't know who he scolded.At eight o'clock in the evening, he said that he had to go out once, and asked him where he was going, but Mo Cai didn't say anything.Gu Ling slept until dawn and woke up. Seeing that he hadn't come back, she became anxious and hung up the phone to the Public Security Bureau. Gu Ling's words were confirmed by Mo Feifei, who said that her father came downstairs at 8:15.Because she was upset, she didn't ask him.Chen Molin also confirmed that Mo Cai walked past his door to the garden after eight o'clock.As for whether to leave the garden, he didn't see clearly.But there seemed to be a knock at the door; when Chen Molin said these words, he remained calm on the surface, but his tone was a bit abnormal. He struck a few matches before lighting the cigarette in his hand.

After the tragedy at Qiuxiang villa, the people in these villas became panicky, even Han Feitian and Kangli, who had always loved to be "night wandering gods", returned home early.Mo Feifei surrendered herself in the Qiujiang Café prostitution case, was released and went home, and did not go out easily.None of these escaped the eyes of the public security officers who were under surveillance. After Zheng Jian finished listening, he walked around the room for a while.Said to Xiao Wang and Xiao Shen: "Mo Cai has not left Qiuxiang Villa, he must be in this garden house." "where."

"Measure the land and the area of ​​the house right away, and find out if the house has narrow passages and dark rooms." After half an hour of measurement, Wang Zhen and Shen Min confirmed that there is no possibility of a narrow passage or dark room in the house. Zheng Jian ordered them to check the garden, but found no place for Tibetans. Zheng Jian's two moves failed, his forehead was dripping with sweat, although it was already the eighth month of the lunar calendar, and the autumn wind was blowing, but he felt hot and stuffy.I thought: This cunning murderer, did he just slip away?

He opened his notebook and took out the floor plan of Qiuxiang's villa that he had drawn: the garden was surrounded by walls, and the only exit was the gate, which meant that Mo Cai had no other way to get out except the gate.Since the surveillance police said that no one came in or out after 8:00 pm, Mo Cai must be in Qiuxiang's villa. The problem is that now the people in the house are gone! "Let's search it," Wang Zhen said. Zheng Jian didn't nod.He felt that he should use the brain of a public security officer to carry out logical reasoning, grasp the reason for the murderer's disappearance, and find out his hiding place.

Zheng Jian made an assumption, and Mo Cai probably realized from a premonition that he had become a fish caught in the net.So what will he do?To escape, he knew it would be difficult to succeed.Frankly, he knew he would never forgive himself.What he may have made is another choice, which is to commit suicide.But even if he committed suicide, there must be a corpse, but now there is no corpse.hell! While Zheng Jian was frowning and thinking hard, Han Feitian walked up to him and said, "Comrade Zheng, I really can't stay in this place anymore. It's another murder case and another missing person. Please let us move out today." Bar!"

Han Feitian's words immediately won the approval of several other households, and even Kang Li said: "I want to leave this ghost place!" Only Chen Molin remained silent. Zheng Jian patiently explained to them: "We can understand your feelings, but the case has not been solved yet, so you can't leave yet." "Can't go? Tell us to die here too?" Han Feitian called out. Gu Ling burst into tears and asked Han Feitian, "How do you know he's dead?" "Sorry, I don't know, I'm guessing." Han Feitian hugged his head and said; "I really regret, I'm so annoyed that I moved into this place."

His expression seemed to be acting, but also seemed to come from true feelings.Zheng Jian watched coldly, and saw Mo Feifei turning his head in pain; Shan Xiali was anxious; Gu Ling was sobbing while looking at others; Chen Molin seemed to have aged a lot; Looking left and right, he suddenly spoke: "I think it's better to let the public security bureau search for a while, so that everyone will not be peaceful tonight." Conley's opinion won unanimous agreement from everyone. Kangli first led Zheng Jian to his room, opened the door, opened the cupboard, lifted the sheets, and said, "Look, I have no Tibetans here."

Zheng Jian quietly followed these residents, and checked their rooms one by one. Every resident asked the public security personnel to check the places where people might be hiding.After checking, Mo Cai was still nowhere to be found.He will never hide it in a drawer! Zheng Jian looked at the bathroom, the toilet, and finally came to the kitchen.This is a 20-square-meter high-end large kitchen with four gas stoves. He pointed to a row of large cabinets and said, "Whose family does this belong to?" "This is a public cabinet." Everyone said together. Zheng Jian took a step forward and opened the cabinet door, only to see a row of shelves.There are sundries on it.Zheng Jian stepped forward to look at the door of the cupboard, and suddenly said: "Why is this cupboard so shallow, is there anything in it?"

Everyone was speechless, only Chen Molin turned his head away. After observing carefully for a while, Zheng Jian ordered Wang Zhen to measure the area of ​​the kitchen and the area of ​​the house.After Wang Zhen finished measuring, he whispered a few words to Zheng Jian. Zheng Jian turned around and asked Chen Molin, "You are the oldest resident here, and you have been a housekeeper. Don't you know the mechanisms in this cabinet?" "I, I don't know." Chen Molin lowered his head, not daring to meet the other person's gaze. "Okay." Zheng Jian reached under the shelf and pulled it hard. The wooden board behind the shelf was lifted, and there was a dark room inside, covering more than two square meters.

Kangli yelled: "Dead man!" Everyone looked together, only to see Mo Cai hanging from a wooden beam in the dark room, with a small stool kicked over underneath. Wang Zhen stepped forward to touch Mo Cai's forehead and said, "Dead!" Gu Ling turned pale and fell down.Everyone panicked. Zheng Jian ordered Wang Zhen to carry the body out. He found a notebook next to Mo Cai's body. When he turned to the last page, there were only a few words on it: "I'm done!" The date below was yesterday. "He killed himself!" Conley exclaimed. Zheng Jian immediately ordered people to protect the scene, comforted everyone, and then said: "Don't be afraid. We will notify you when the case is closed."
That afternoon, Lin Hai sent the autopsy report.The conclusion of the autopsy was that Mo Cai hanged himself, and a certain amount of sleeping pills was found in his stomach.It is possible that he hanged himself after taking sleeping pills in order to reduce his pain.Mo Cai also had a female watch, which was found to have been stolen by Xin Yueqiu before his death.The handwriting on his notebook is also from his own hand.This notebook also records the record of him and Wang Ke killing Zhang Hanqian, and in the last few pages of notes, there are several paragraphs of his alone about the tragedy in Qiuxiang Villa: Regarding the time of Mo Cai's death, Lin Hai made the following inference: "Corpse plaques will appear after a person dies. Corpse plaques generally have three stages: the deposition period, the diffusion period, and the infiltration period. Appeared after four hours, as late as six to eight hours; the infiltrating period appeared 24 hours after the death of the person. The results of autopsy on Mo Cai showed that the plaques had merged into large sheets, showing diffuse purple red, turning over After the corpse, the original plaques did not fade away, and new plaques were not easy to form on the new lower part. This symptom belongs to the diffuse stage, which means that Mo Cai has been dead for more than eight to ten hours. His cornea has mild In the blood test, the amino acid nitrogen in Mo Cai's body was measured to exceed 30 mg, while the femoral vein blood content of the corpse was less than 50 mg. These data can prove that Mo Cai last night Those who died between eleven o'clock and twelve o'clock." Zheng Jian gave these materials to everyone to discuss together. Lin Hai, Wang Zhen, Shen Min and Wen Shu all agreed that Mo was the murderer who killed Zhang Hanqian and Xin Yueqiu. When he realized that he could not escape punishment, he could only He committed suicide in fear of guilt. Wen Shu also gave a specific and vivid description of the process of Mo Cai's committing the crime: That night, Mo discovered that Xin Yueqiu was walking in the garden in the autumn rain, and he became murderous; he put on a raincoat and went downstairs quietly, took advantage of Xin Yueqiu's unpreparedness, beat her to death, and then quickly ran to the back door, waiting for Gu Ling and Shan When Xia Li came out, he appeared on the stage behind them. Zheng Jian basically agrees with Wen Shu's analysis. Mo Cai's motive, timing, and reason for committing suicide are all logical.Besides, the possibility of committing crimes by the other ten suspects has been completely denied.Not Mo Cai?Who else?
