Chapter 21 second quarter

The closing meeting of Qiuxiang Villa was held as scheduled.In the conference room, Zheng Jian, the leader of the detection team, was not seen for a long time. At this time, the door opened, and Zheng Jian walked in, saying word by word: "I think the closing report drafted by me yesterday needs to be rewritten." "Why?" Wang Zhen asked in surprise. "I think this case is not over yet. There are still some loopholes in identifying Mo Cai as the murderer of Xin Yueqiu. There is a real murderer behind him." A few words caused a sensation in the entire conference room.

Zheng Jian pushed his glasses and said, "I would like to ask five questions first. First, the murder weapon used to kill Xin Yueqiu was a trowel knife. The owner of this knife was Yihua. It is said that Han Feitian had borrowed it. Another person sent the murder weapon to Qiujiang flower shop. But Mo Cai never went to the flower shop. How did he transfer the murder weapon and blame others? Second, when we were solving the case, my family received a call from a man The phone call provided clues about when Mo Cai committed the crime when Xin Yueqiu was murdered. We have confirmed this through our investigation of Gu Ling. It is naturally impossible for Mo Cai to expose himself. Who is this insider? He has not yet shown up. This It is also a mystery. Thirdly, if Mo Cai wants to kill Xin Yueqiu, he doesn’t have to go outside the villa to smoke. Although the blood type of the two cigarette butts left behind matches Mo Cai’s, it must be Mo Cai’s throwing it away, which is too far-fetched. Fourth, Mocai killed Ding Xinyueqiu. After the screams, he walked around from the garden to the backyard, and then entered the platform through the back door. This was allowed in terms of time. But according to my memory, he was wearing shoes at the time. Instead of galoshes, and the raincoat, how could it be put back in the bathroom in time? Fifth, Mo Cai’s death is also questionable. Why did he commit suicide in the darkroom, and took the notebook and Xin Yueqiu’s watch that he had snatched away? , put them all by his side, did he intend to make it easier for us to close the case?"

After Zheng Jian finished speaking, he added: "Also, before Xin Yueqiu was killed, he received a call. Who made the call is still a mystery. According to Xin Hanlu, Xin Yueqiu received the call around six o'clock, and According to what I just learned, Mo Cai was in the office to report on his work that day, and he didn’t have time to make this phone call. I haven’t had time to discuss these thoughts with other comrades in the future, so let’s talk about my personal questions about the case that cannot be settled.” Wen Shu said: "About those two cigarette butts, I learned from Xin Hanlu yesterday that the cigarette butts were left by Yihua."

"Oh, he also went to Qiuxiang's villa that night?" "Yes, he went there at about half past ten. Because he hated Xin Yueqiu to the core, he had sworn that after the Qiuxiang villa was owned by Xin Yueqiu, he would never go to Qiuxiang villa again, so that night, he wanted to go again Look at the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the villa; smell its fragrance. Since the door was locked at that time, he couldn't go in, so he lingered for a while and then left. Later when he heard that Xin Yueqiu was killed, he didn't dare to talk about the day he I have been there. Recently, with the encouragement of Xin Hanlu, I only told the truth."

Wen Shu added in this paragraph that although the issue of cigarette butts has been clarified, the tall man wandering outside the villa provided by the neighborhood committee sister Zhou has been clarified.However, it was further confirmed that the perpetrator was not from outside the villa. Wang Zhen, Shen Min, and Lin Hai all looked at each other for a while, and they also realized that the question raised by Zheng Jian could not be justified by Mo Cai, but apart from Mo Cai, there were only Gu Ling, Shan Xiali, Chen Molin, and Kang Li in the villa. , none of them had time to commit crimes.

Shen Min said: "If it is said that Chen Molin committed the crime, there was obviously Kang Li beside him when the scream happened. If it was said that Kang Li committed the crime, there was obviously Chen Molin beside him. And Gu Ling, one minute after the scream, She had poked her head out from the window sill, which Chen Molin and Kang Li saw. Two minutes after the tragedy, Gu Ling knocked on Shan Xiali's door and called her out. Shan Xiali was in the garden It will take at least five minutes to kill Xin Yueqiu, then run from the front door to the back door, and then from the back door to the pavilion, and close the door. She is the murderer, and it is difficult to establish."

Everyone turned their attention to Zheng Jian, and Zheng Jian said with apology: "I thought about the whole process of solving the case last night, and found the loopholes. Moreover, I don't think the reason why the case cannot be closed is not here." Everyone was stunned, and Zheng Jian continued: "The perpetrator always has a certain purpose, unless he is a mentally ill person. If Mo Cai is used as the murderer of Xin Yueqiu, what is his purpose? Is he trying to kill someone? No. Because Xin Yueqiu didn't know that Mo was the real murderer of her husband Zhang Hanqian; did he want to murder for money? No, although Mo Cai knew that there was a large inheritance in Qiuxiang's villa, he didn't know where it was hidden. If he had known, he would have dug it out long ago when he was not around, and took it as his own. He didn't even know that there was a blueprint indicating that there was a secret under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree beside Xin Yueqiu. The blueprint was stolen. I thought hard for a long time, but I still couldn't figure out that Mo Cai's killing Xin Yueqiu would bring him any benefit. He would never naively think that as long as Xin Yueqiu died, Mo Cai could stay with Qiuxiang for a long time. He is not the heir to Xin Yueqiu's inheritance, he still has to move out of this small garden house that he doesn't want to move out of."

Zheng Jian lit a cigarette, then said: "I also want to provide you with a new situation. Yesterday afternoon, I also received a call from the court, saying that after Xin Yueqiu's nephew, Xin Gu, was released, he had filed a lawsuit against him. Request to inherit all of Xin Yueqiu's inheritance, because he has a will with Xin Yueqiu's fingerprints on hand." This news once again shocked everyone present. Wen Shu stood up and said excitedly: "It's unreasonable to return Xin Yueqiu's two million yuan inheritance and Qiuxiang villa to Xin Gu. He never took care of Xin Yueqiu at all. Besides, he is still a..."

Zheng Jian went on to say: "What's more, he is still a person who has been reeducated through labor?" Wen Shu nodded and said, "Yes." "You can't act on your emotions!" Zheng Jian said again: "If we have verified that Xin Yueqiu's suicide note is true, Xin Gu has been released, and he has not been deprived of his citizenship rights, then we must act in accordance with the law. Xin Gu has the right to inherit this An inheritance, not to mention two million yuan and a garden villa, even more, should be awarded to him." Wen Shu was speechless, she understood that Zheng Jian's words were impeccable.She listened to him continue to analyze: "Yes, Xin Gu is the direct beneficiary of Xin Yueqiu's murder. He has the biggest motive for committing the crime. Because if Xin Yueqiu survives, she can make a new will. But she died, Xin Gu Compared with Xin Hanlu, he has a superior inheritance right. First, he was raised by Xin Yueqiu's elder brother, and his status is the same as that of his own nephew. Second, he has a will with Xin Yueqiu's fingerprints on it."

"However, according to Shen Min's investigation, Xin Gu was still in the labor camp at that time, so he couldn't fly out to commit crimes." Wang Zhen interjected. Zheng Jian nodded and said, "I also asked the labor camp about this, and it proved that Xin Gu could not have committed the crime. He was only released three days ago, and it was the seventh day after the massacre at Qiuxiang Villa." Wen Shu sighed softly, Wang Zhen and Shen Min talked excitedly, while Lin Hai rubbed his head in thought. Seeing the disappointment on everyone's faces, Zheng Jian smiled and said, "Don't worry, in order to confuse the murderer, we can announce to the public that this case has been closed." Fake, let the brain rest for a while, learn to rest, and learn to work. Maybe, after three days, we will have passed the days of 'end of the mountain' and attracted the moment of 'the willows are dark and the flowers are bright'. Well, nothing, we This meeting ends here."

Ten minutes later, Zheng Jian and Wen Shu walked side by side on the long embankment of the Autumn River.Both of them were silent, Zheng Jian saw that Wen Shu kept kicking the small stones on the road, and a small stone was kicked far away by her.He understood how restless and upset this self-respecting woman was! They walked for a while. "Hey, Wen Shu, you work as a reporter. Can you describe the images of those eleven people for me?" Zheng Jian said thoughtfully. Wen Shu shook his head and said, "The case hasn't been solved yet, even if it's written, it won't be published." "Regardless of the conclusion of the case, you can help me describe the image and characteristics of each person first, maybe it will be useful to me." Wen Shu thought for a while, then said, "I'll just come here and talk nonsense." "Okay." Zheng Jian reported the first name first: "Mo Cai." "Hypocritical and speculative, ruthless and relentless." "Gu Ling?" "Duplicate appearance, quite scheming." "Chen Molin?" "Strange character, secretive actions." "Conley?" "Looking for profit and forgetting righteousness, aiding abuse and doing evil." "Han Feitian?" "The temperament is romantic and informal." "Shan Xiali?" "Simple and naive, longing for love." "Li Yangang?" "Cruel and insidious, committing all kinds of evil." "Xin Hanlu?" "Faith is firm, not for profit." "Yihua?" "When the prodigal son returns, the old habits remain." "Xin Gu?" "Greedy for profit, desperado." "Moffee?" "Going astray, you can't extricate yourself." Wen Shu finished speaking, and Zheng Jian also finished memorizing. Wen Shu asked: "Do you think my evaluation is correct?" Zheng Jian's answer was: "Maybe it's true, maybe it's not entirely true." He said: "Let me go back and think about it." Wen Shu took out a small note from his pocket and said, "Xin Hanlu gave it to me last night." Seeing that it was a paging phone call, Zheng Jian hurriedly asked, "Is that the mysterious call that Xin Yueqiu received?" Wen Shu nodded and said, "Because the phone station of the other party is next to the Qiujiang Garden, and the caller said his surname was Yi. So Xin Hanlu refused to hand it over at first. I have already investigated the phone station. According to the old lady who looked at the phone, Because it was raining that day, the caller was wearing a raincoat, and he seemed to be a young man, or an old man, and she really couldn't remember the face and manner of the caller." "Is it a man?" "maybe." "It seems that the killing of Xin Yueqiu was carefully planned. This is an experienced veteran!"
