Detective: Open your eyes, I am handcuffed in the interrogation room.

Chapter 496: The theft case progresses, and Mengzhu Town returns

The director of Ruicheng No. 1 Detention Center personally received Chen Yi and others, and immediately arranged an interrogation room and brought Yu Shu there.

Suspects entering the detention center may face interrogation at any time, so the facilities in the interrogation room are relatively complete, even more professional than those in the Municipal Bureau, and anti-collision soft bags are arranged in all directions without blind spots.

There is a story behind every new regulation. In previous years, there were suspects who directly banged their heads against the wall in detention centers.

Compared to when he was at the Municipal Bureau, Yu Shu was much calmer today. He didn't seem to be surprised by Chen Yi's arrival. After taking a look at him, he lowered his head and sat there without saying a word.

"The person in the portrait is wrong. Explain it to me!"

Hu Qingzhi strode forward and spoke first, his face full of anger.

Chen Yi and others also gathered around and stared at Yu Shu, blocking the light with their bodies, causing Yu Shu to be shrouded in shadow.

Yushu Silence
"Hey, hey, hey, I'm asking you a question!" Hu Qingzhi knocked on the chair, "Don't play dumb!"

Seeing that Yushu was still silent, Hu Qingzhi bent down 90 degrees and turned his head to look at the young man in front of him. This action made Yushu subconsciously lean back.

"Do you think we are too polite to you, huh?" Hu Qingzhi's voice was dangerously cold, and he even glanced at the surveillance camera.

A false confession can be seen as a provocation to the police, which seriously wastes police resources and time. The chances of this happening are very small and rarely heard of.

If you don't want to confess, you don't have to confess. The police can't force you to confess. But what if you confess a false confession? What's the purpose?
You could just keep silent, but you have to make trouble for the police. What's your mentality?
To put it bluntly, it's easy to get beaten.

Fortunately it happened now. If it had happened decades ago, Yushu would have been in a terrible situation, even worse than if it had refused to confess.

Isn't this treating the police like dogs?

So Hu Qingzhi was very angry, very angry.

Yu Shu was somewhat frightened. He rolled his throat and spoke hoarsely, "I... I have already described my friend's appearance. You arrested the wrong person. What does it have to do with me?"

"Bullshit!" Hu Qingzhi cursed, "What you described is totally wrong! That person was a customer you met by chance at Jinfeng Jade! Do you think we are stupid?!"

Yushu was silent again.

Seeing this, Hu Qingzhi turned to look at Chen Yi, who said, "Just tell me the truth. Is there such a person? I mean the bracelet for you."

He still tends to believe that Yushu's other confessions were true, and he just lied about the portrait.

Yushu wasn't the one who stole the bracelet, so it must have been given to him by someone else.

Yu Shu uttered one word: "Yes."

Chen Yi said, "What I mean is, there is this person, he stole the bracelet, you know him, you know what he looks like, you even know his name and other basic information, but you can't tell me, right?"

Yushu acquiesced to Chen Yi's question.

Hu Qingzhi and others frowned. If Yushu didn't say anything, it would be difficult. The clues they had finally found would be cut off by him, which meant that everything would go back to the starting point and start over again.

Chen Yi didn't react much, and said, "The person who can make you go to jail to protect him seems to have a good relationship with him. You spend most of your time in the village. I don't believe you can make such a friend. And your personality is destined to make it difficult for you to have a confidant. Let me guess... Is this person Shi Lin?"

Fuqin said that Yushu’s best friend was Shilin, and Shilin left the village with his sister many years ago. The two things can be completely connected.

At the very least, you can cheat.

Hearing Shi Lin's name, Yu Shu slowly raised his head, a fleeting sadness flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth raised sneer: "Shi Lin? How dare you think so. I swore to San Duo that I have never seen him since he left the village."

This was the second time Chen Yi heard the word "Three Mores". This should really be the national belief of Yuluo Village. At this moment, he felt that he could change the way of asking the question.

"Okay, I believe you." He said, "Then, swear another oath and say that the loss of this bracelet has nothing to do with Shilin."

I have never seen stone scales, and the bracelet is not related to stone scales.

This made Yu Shu's face slightly tense, and he said unhappily: "How do I know if he has anything to do with the bracelet? I haven't even met him."

Chen Yi: "I know, I've said I believe it, then change the oath, you swear that you really don't know whether the bracelet and the stone scales are related."

This time, Yushu's face began to tremble. Hu Qingzhi and his colleagues were all experienced criminal police and they immediately noticed something was wrong.

The clues began to advance.

"What, you don't dare? If you don't dare, it means you know there is a connection." Chen Yi snorted coldly.

Yushu was furious: "You...Okay, I swear, I swear to Sanduo, I really don't...Are you sick?"

He was anxious.

After all...I didn't finish my oath.

It can be seen that Sanduo's oath is very sacred and engraved in his bones. Even if one ignores it at all costs, he cannot be at peace in his heart.

Maybe he could do it if given time, but it happened so suddenly that he was not mentally prepared.

Chen Yi played word games with him and was very successful.

Now we have a new clue: the bracelet is related to stone scales.

It is not clear whether it is directly or indirectly related.

Yu Shu's voice continued: "From now on, I refuse to answer any of your questions! And I won't swear!"

He had learned his lesson, but it was too late. It was enough for him to know that the bracelet was related to the stone scales, and no matter how much he asked, he would not get any more information.

"Don't refuse. I won't ask."

After saying that, Chen Yi turned around and left the interrogation room. He originally wanted to mention Shi Lin's sister Yue Qing, but unfortunately this method could only be used once.

The director had been waiting at the door for a long time. When he saw Chen Yi coming out, he hurriedly asked about the progress. Chen Yi was very polite and said with a smile that there had been considerable progress, but Yushu's detention period might be very long and the case could not be closed in a short time.

"Okay, I got it. Captain Chen, don't worry, I'll have people keep a close eye on him." said the director.

"Hard."

Several people left the detention center and returned to the car, where they began to analyze the information Yushu had just provided, and tentatively assumed that Sanduo's beliefs were credible.

First of all, Yu Shu hasn't met Shi Lin since he left Yuluo Village.

Secondly, Yushu knew that there was a connection between Jiang Yanyan’s bracelet and Shilin.

Third, Jiang Yanyan’s bracelet later belonged to Yushu.

Fourth, Yushu was unwilling to sell the bracelet to the person who gave it to him.

What conclusion can we draw by adding up the four pieces of information?

"It's definitely not Shi Lin who gave Yu Shu the bracelet." Hu Qingzhi came to the first conclusion, "As for whether it was Shi Lin who stole the bracelet... it's hard to say now, right?"

It is possible that Shilin stole the bracelet and then asked someone else to give it to Yushu, which is consistent with the information given by Yushu.

Qin Fei sorted it out for a long time, frowning: "I feel a little confused, Captain Chen, why did you suddenly mention Shi Lin just now, is it because you don't believe he can make other friends?"

Facts have proved that Chen Yiti Shilin was right. This person had a great influence on Yushu's emotions, and he almost lost control in the end.

This shows that Shi Lin played a role in this case.

Chen Yi nodded: "Most of the reasons come from disbelief. Apart from Shi Lin, it will be difficult for Yu Shu to make other close friends in a short period of time. Moreover, Shi Lin's sister is seriously ill, and Jiang Yanyan also has a strange disease. We are currently considering whether the bracelet has any special features."

He Shixin hesitated: "If the bracelet can cure diseases, that's a bit far-fetched."

"Let's not talk about that for now. Let me give you a hypothesis and see if it makes sense." Chen Yi spoke, and the others became serious. "The people involved in this case must trust each other. We should also include Shi Lin's sister Yue Qing in this."

"Suppose that the one who stole the bracelet was Shilin, and the one who gave it to Yushu was Yueqing. Let's not think about why Shilin has this ability, but can we deal with Yushu?"

Yueqing? With this person, things seem to be a lot clearer.

"But... why?" Hu Qingzhi was the one who spoke. "Why doesn't Shi Lin meet Yu Shu? If his sister can meet her, why can't he meet her?"

Chen Yi: "It can be assumed that... we can't meet due to special reasons."

There are still doubts. Hu Qingzhi feels that this hypothesis is not very convincing.

Chen Yi: "Don't worry, let's analyze it slowly. Now think about why Shi Lin has this ability. Did he learn it? With his status, he should not be able to reach Jiang Yanyan's level."

"Continue to add people. Shi Lin's friend helped steal the bracelet and gave it to Yue Qing, and then Yue Qing gave it to Yu Shu."

"Shi Lin is different from Yu Shu. He has been away from Yu Luo Village for many years. It is not impossible for him to know a friend with special skills."

“If you think about it this way, isn’t the process more reasonable?”

Hu Qingzhi nodded: "It is indeed much more reasonable. So the motive is to help Yushu?"

Chen Yi: "No, stealing a bracelet worth 100 million is too exaggerated. We have discussed before that Yushu can be replaced with a cheap bracelet. Shilin and Yueqing also understand this, but they did not do it."

"If our assumption is correct, it is logical to assume that the bracelet has a certain specialness and this behavior is killing two birds with one stone."

"It can only be pushed here, and it will be a blank below."

Hu Qingzhi: "Captain Chen's point is that the next direction of investigation could be to dig out the high-tech thieves in Ruicheng."

High-tech thief, also known as master thief.

Chen Yi thought for a moment and replied, "We'll wait for the news from the hospital first to see whether Yue Qing and Shi Lin stayed in Ruicheng the longest or went somewhere else. This is very important."

"Old Hu, let's change the direction of the theft case and investigate Shi Lin and Yue Qing. The two surnames have the same last name, the one on top is "ci" (from "each other"), and the one on the bottom is "xi" (from "dawn")."

Hu Qingzhi was surprised: "Shilin, Yueqing? Such a rare surname."

Chen Yi chuckled: "Because it's rare, it's easy to find."

Hu Qingzhi agreed: "That's true."

……

The next day, the police officers who went to the hospital to investigate came back and found Yueqing's medical record, which was indeed at Ruicheng People's Hospital, Grade IIA.

"Uremia?"

Chen Yi glanced at the copy of the medical record.

For Shi Lin and Yue Qing, who came from a remote mountain village, this disease is truly hopeless.

Whether it is general dialysis or drug treatment, the cost is very high. Surgical treatment means kidney transplantation, and two people may not be able to come up with so much money.

Grade II hospitals usually do not have the conditions and qualifications to perform kidney transplant operations. The two must have visited Grade III hospitals in other cities to find out more.

Short of money.

Money is the biggest problem facing this brother and sister. To be more precise, it is the biggest problem that Shi Lin has to face. A girl with uremia can't do anything.

If it is linked to money, then the possibility of committing crimes is very high.

The village chief said that Shi Lin and Yue Qing have a very good relationship. Shi Lin probably won't watch his sister suffer for a disease that can be cured with money. Even if she can't be completely cured, Shi Lin would like to see her suffer less.

"Old Hu, follow this line and see what you can find out. The ultimate goal is to find out all the movements and interpersonal relationships of this pair of siblings. Check all the surrounding tertiary hospitals and the tertiary hospitals in Mingcheng."

"I'll continue to follow up on the murder case. There's still no news from the economic investigation department. Let's go to Mengzhu Town again."

In the conference room, Chen Yi decided on the next direction.

Hu Qingzhi accepted the order: "Yes! For the treatment of uremia... the best hospital is in Mingcheng. I will ask someone to check Mingcheng first."

Chen Yi nodded: "Okay, this time Fang Shuyu and Qin Fei will go with me to Mengzhu Town, and the others will stay to assist Captain Hu in checking the thief's information. The person who stole Jiang Yanyan's bracelet is definitely not a simple person."

"Old He, you should just stay at the Municipal Bureau and search for relevant information all day long and dig deeper."

Extralegal information related to crime rarely appears on the Internet, but He Shixin certainly has his own ways and channels, including the external network.

When is new: "Understood."

At this time, Liang Qidong asked: "Captain Chen, why are you going to Mengzhu Town? Is your destination Yuluo Village?"

Chen Yi said: "We'll talk on the way. Let's set off immediately."

After the meeting, several people immediately got on the car and rushed to Mengzhu Town. On the way, Chen Yi gave a brief explanation.

There are more and more clues in the current theft case, but no effective clues related to the murder case have been found yet. He wants to talk again to the fortune teller he met in Mengzhu Town last time.

There is only one purpose: what does the ceremony at the crime scene represent?

This matter is very important to this case and we must try our best to clarify it.

The murderer couldn't have acted on a whim. As I said before, there must be some basis for the crime.

Knowing the evidence, we may be able to infer the murderer's motive, or even directly expose the motive.

"That fortune teller knows about the hidden Taoist temple?"

Liang Qidong was quite curious. He didn't expect that an ordinary fortune-telling stall could become Chen Yi's investigation point.

Chen Yi smiled and said, "It seems that he knows. We are lucky. Let's go ask him again and ask Lao Shao to come along. If necessary...scare him."

Liang Qidong also smiled: "I understand."

It was almost noon when we arrived at Mengzhu Town. The sun was already high in the sky, the perceived temperature rose sharply, and many stalls had already set up large parasols.

Including that fortune-telling stall.

Fortune tellers are also afraid of heat. It’s ok if they feel hot themselves, but they can’t let their guests feel hot too. If they stay for a long time, they won’t be able to stay and it won’t be easy to fool them.

In fact, most fortune tellers have something to say. Not to mention the complicated knowledge, they are definitely good at observing and judging people, no worse than those who study psychology. Sometimes they can infer the character and even the general experience of the customer through just a few words.

By inferring the general experience and using specious words to give the customer a sense that it is indeed the case.

Actually, universal.

You can put it on yourself or on others.

For example: With the movement of Jupiter, your fortune this year will be very good, but you still need to be careful with your words and actions.

It is true that if the guest seems to be in a good mood, it means that he has not encountered any bad things recently.

If you seem to be in a bad mood, you can say that life is hard sometimes, don't let it hold you back, you have to face it with a smile, believe me...etc.

This is the art of speaking.

If one has perfected the ability to read people's expressions and words, perhaps he can tell the story in more detail, which will amaze the fortune teller and make him believe in it without a doubt, and pay the money obediently.

In Chen Yi's opinion, this fortune teller in Mengzhu Town...is not yet up to standard.

Lao Shao had already called them over. When they stood in front of the stall, the sleepy fortune teller quickly looked up and smiled out of habit.

However, after seeing Chen Yi, his smile immediately disappeared.

"Why is it you again... Lao Shao?"
