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

Chapter 528 A photo

Work overtime tonight.

Because the second re-survey was interrupted, Lu Yongqiang took people to Gong Qingliang's home late at night after the meeting to conduct a third on-site re-survey.

Under the current circumstances, the investigation has lost its focus and we can only collect as many clues as possible to see if they will ultimately help solve the case.

He Shixin is responsible for monitoring and chat call records.

Check forward.

Four women went to Gong Qingliang's house on the same day. Was it the only time or multiple times?
If it happens only once, then you can suspect it was intentional.

If it happens many times, regardless of whether Gong Qingliang is tired of dancing on the edge of the knife, Fan Zhimei will have more opportunities.

Everyone was busy until the early morning, and Chen Yi did not sleep either.

Why is it said that the golden time for solving a case is seventy-two hours?
During this period of time, in addition to having the most clues and the suspects having the most unstable mentality, the investigators also have the most energy.

On the contrary, after staying up late for several days in a row, fatigue will quickly reduce the detection efficiency.

This is the origin of the seventy-two hours.

The case is actually very clear. Either Fan Zhimei did it, or she has an accomplice. Chen Yi does not want to delay it and tries his best to pry open Fan Zhimei's mouth in the shortest time possible.

When there is a case, sleep becomes a luxury. Everyone squeezes out a little time to take a nap, and then eats breakfast in a dizzy state.

"We haven't finished checking the surveillance yet. Judging from the call records and chat records, this is the only time that the four women went to Gong Qingliang's house at the same time. The most common number of people was three." He Xin took a bite of the bun and reported the current results to Chen Yi.

Chen Yi lowered his head to drink his porridge and asked, "Which three people?"

He Shixin: "Luna, Bao Linlin, Cao'e, Fan Zhimei and Gong Qingliang have the least contact and meeting times."

Chen Yi: "These three people are relatively free, but Fan Zhimei is quite busy."

When Xin: “Yes.”

After Chen Yi finished his porridge, he proposed a new direction for analysis.

Regardless of who killed Gong Qingliang, it is unclear whether the suspect knew that he was a fish in Gong Qingliang’s fish pond, and that the fish pond was quite large.

"You should know. I think this is the main motivation." He Shixin said.

Chen Yi lit a cigarette and said, "Let's assume that we know. Now let's put Fan Zhimei aside and analyze these four women again. Who is most likely to know?"

"Leave Fan Zhimei behind?" He Xin understood what the other party meant. The other three might not be absolutely innocent. He thought about it carefully and made an inference, "Bao Linlin, right?"

"Yes, it's just as I thought. Tell me why." Chen Yi said.

He Xin talked about them one by one. First was Luna. She was the manager of the business KTV and her emotional experience was incomparable to the other three. Her boyfriend had an ambiguous relationship with other women, but it might not be a big deal for Luna, so she didn't bother to care.

Cao E, a company executive, is emotionally blank. What she pursues is the long-lost excitement and passion. She is like a fish in water in the business world, but she is no match for Gong Qingliang in terms of love.

Fan Zhimei, a researcher with a doctorate degree, has met Gong Qingliang only a few times, so the possibility of her discovering that her boyfriend is having multiple affairs is relatively low.

Comparing the four people together, only Bao Linlin is the easiest to spot.

A rich second-generation who has money and nothing to do all day, is deeply in love with Gong Qingliang. During the period of passionate love, Gong Qingliang is everything in her life.

From common sense, as long as Bao Linlin was a little more sensitive, she would always notice Gong Qingliang's abnormality.

Once there is a clue, what follows is endless testing and investigation to find the answers you want.

Therefore, if we really have to pick out the one among the four who is most likely to discover Gong Qingliang's true identity, it would be Bao Linlin, the youngest.

After stating his own judgment, He Xin added: "You suspect cooperation, right? It's hard to find a time when three people went to Gong Qingliang's house at the same time, but it's easier to find a time when two people went there at the same time."

Chen Yi: "I wouldn't say I'm suspicious, but it feels a little strange that four people are locked up together without saying a word. When has the detention room ever been so quiet?"

He Xin nodded: "That's right, it's always very lively."

The municipal bureau was okay, but the branch bureaus and police stations were really lively. People who usually fought, solicited prostitution, and gambled were temporarily locked up together awaiting processing, and they were chatting animatedly.

Especially those who have been dealt with many times will always become the initiators of the topic, asking everyone questions here and there to show off their rich experience.

Even if it is the first time for someone to be dealt with, although they are afraid, they will still be curious about what crime others have broken. At the same time, they will worry about what they will face tomorrow, and even about the treatment in the detention center, and they can't help but ask.

It's impossible not to chat. Anyway, I've already been caught and there's no way to change the outcome. I might as well just sit there doing nothing.

When a "senior" tells a "newcomer" that a detention center is not a place for human beings, he or she will be terrified, beat his or her chest and stamp his feet in regret, and in despair in the detention room, yearn for the freedom outside the detention center.

In short, it will definitely not be quiet.

This is abnormal, which means there may be special reasons, such as some people actually knew each other and participated in the poisoning case, but they did not dare to communicate for fear of revealing flaws.

"Keep investigating, and make sure the other three people's affairs are investigated. You are in charge of Fan Zhimei, and find out if she has met anyone recently." Chen Yi said.

Shi Xin nodded: "Okay."

Chen Yi: "Have you been to Bao Linlin's home?"

He Shixin: "Luna and Cao'e are gone, and Bao Linlin's family hasn't had time to investigate. Will they release them? Or will they investigate first and then release them?"

Chen Yi: "Release them. They cannot leave Yangcheng for the time being."

There is no evidence and there are no special circumstances at the moment, so there is no reason to continue detaining Bao Linlin and the other two.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

The Municipal Bureau could provide breakfast for Bao Linlin and the other two, but when they learned that they could leave, they had no appetite for food. They quickly signed the documents and left without looking back.

Luna was walking in the front, Cao E was walking slowly in the middle, and Bao Linlin seemed to have survived a disaster and started wiping her tears at the back.

Office of the deputy captain.

in front of the window.

This is the best position for observation. Chen Yi, holding an unlit cigarette in his mouth, watched the three people walk out of the building and come to the entrance of the Municipal Bureau, ready to take a taxi.

There was still no intention of communicating. They were complete strangers to each other and didn't even make eye contact.

Soon, Luna and Cao'e got on the online taxi and left, leaving Bao Linlin alone standing there. Her car was a little slow.

Chen Yi stared at her back.

Two minutes later, an online-ordered car drove up from a distance and stopped in front of Bao Linlin. She put away her phone, opened the door, looked back at the municipal bureau building, and then got in the car.

The car window lets light through but not shadows, so Chen Yi can no longer see Bao Linlin.

"call……"

Inside the car, Bao Linlin, who was sitting in the back seat, relaxed completely and slowly let out the breath that had been pent up in her chest.

There was no more fear on her face, and she stopped sobbing. Instead, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.

Fortunately, Chen Yi couldn't see it, otherwise she would definitely not be able to leave today.

In front of the office window, Chen Yi's eyes followed the direction of the online car-hailing vehicle until it disappeared from his sight.

He felt that there was something a little weird about Bao Linlin, but he couldn't put his finger on it.

Maybe he didn't forget to look back at the Municipal Bureau before getting in the car, or maybe he had experienced a whole night of panic and anxiety, and finally left intact and still calmly chose to take a taxi. After standing there and thinking for a while, Chen Yi walked out of the new office.

"Qin Fei Lin Chen, come with me and take the car keys."

Passing by the case handling hall, Chen Yi said as he walked.

At this time, He Shixin was arranging tasks. Qin Fei and Lin Chen immediately stood up when they heard it and quickly followed Chen Yi.

He Shixin didn't ask any more questions and continued the meeting, transferring the task that was originally assigned to Qin Fei and Lin Chen to other police officers.

In the parking lot of the Municipal Bureau, Qin Fei, who was driving, fastened his seat belt and asked, "Captain Chen, where are we going?"

Chen Yi: "Bao Linlin's house, hurry up and turn on the sirens all the way."

"Yes."

Qin Fei took the order and turned on the sirens and police lights. When the police officer on duty at the door saw it, he quickly pressed the telescopic door switch in advance. The vehicle turned right after leaving the gate and sped away.

Qin Fei drove at 80 on a city road where the speed limit was 50. He overtook every car he saw and only slowed down and observed when passing an intersection. He would ignore the red light and drive through the intersection after making sure it was safe.

Although they set off ten minutes late, Chen Yi and his two companions arrived at Bao Linlin's house before her. When she got out of the online-hailing car, the police car was already parked in front of the villa.

With her face changing slightly, Bao Linlin quickly walked into the house.

Both parents are here.

Last night, Bao Linlin's parents took a lawyer to the Municipal Bureau, but did not see Bao Linlin. The detachment only gave an official response that it was a routine investigation and did not file a case.

When Bao Linlin appeared at home, her parents breathed a sigh of relief, but then asked if she was suffering in there and then asked what had happened.

Bao Linlin didn't know how to answer, so she looked upstairs. That was her room and the door was open.

"Linlin, three policemen came into your bedroom and said they wanted to search it."

"What are you searching for? What case are you involved in?"

The mother was quite anxious and kept asking questions.

Bao Linlin was silent for a moment, did not go upstairs, turned around and sat down in the living room.

The parents followed and continued asking questions.

"Oh, it's so annoying. My boyfriend is dead, so of course the police have to investigate me! Can you please stop asking questions?" Bao Linlin has a bad temper.

"Dead?" The father was shocked. "Is it the guy called Gong or something? I've said he doesn't look like a decent person. Can you please give me some peace of mind?"

The relationship is complicated and involves a murder case. Any father would be afraid.

Bao Linlin said angrily: "It wasn't me who did it, why are you accusing me of that?!"

The father said angrily: "If it weren't for him, would you have stayed in there for a night? Look at who they found. It was like this before. You..."

Chen Yi heard the quarrel downstairs, but ignored it and continued to look through Bao Linlin's desk with his gloved hands. After looking through the surface, he opened the drawer.

The room was cozy but not tidy and a little messy. It was obvious that Bao Linlin was not a clean girl and there was no nanny or part-time worker to help with cleaning.

The desk is the key point. Ninety-nine percent of people's little secrets are hidden in the desk. Chen Yi saw Bao Linlin's toys in elementary school and also flipped through her middle school yearbook.

No special findings.

"Team Chen."

On the other side, when Qin Fei lifted the pillow on the bed, a photo appeared in his sight.

Chen Yi turned around and walked over, taking the photo that Qin Fei handed over.

The person in the photo is Gong Qingliang.

A solo photo, no one else.

The photo is incomplete, with two crosses on the face cut by a sharp blade. Considering Gong Qingliang's death, it is inexplicably scary.

"The motive for murder is obvious, right?" Qin Fei said.

Chen Yi didn't say anything, just stared at the photo for a while, then asked Qin Fei to put it away and put it in the evidence bag.

It's just a photo, it can't prove anything, but it can improve the accuracy of the inference.

Bao Linlin was probably pretending in the interrogation room. She no longer had any love for Gong Qingliang, only hatred. It can be said that she wanted Gong Qingliang to die.

So, did she really cooperate with Fan Zhimei to poison Gong Qingliang?
To confirm this, we need to check whether the two people have met.

The phone has been checked and there is no trace of contact.

Holding the photo, the three of them left the bedroom and went downstairs.

In the living room, Bao Linlin and her parents stood up and looked at Chen Yi who was gradually approaching.

"It's okay, excuse me."

"We need to take this photo away. It may be useful in helping us solve the case. Thank you for your cooperation."

These two sentences put Bao Linlin's parents at ease, and they said some polite words like "We're sorry to trouble you."

Since he didn't continue to cause trouble for his daughter, it means it really has nothing to do with her.

Bao Linlin watched silently from the side. When Chen Yi was about to leave and was about to walk to the door, she suddenly said, "You entered my bedroom to take my things. Do you still regard me as a suspect?"

The father frightened his daughter again and scolded her harshly.

Chen Yi stopped, turned around and looked at Bao Linlin, and said, "The case just happened, and we haven't investigated many things yet. Theoretically speaking, you are still a suspect."

"The suspect is not a criminal, don't worry, we won't wrongly accuse a good person."

After saying that, the three of them left, and the voices of Bao Linlin's parents educating her were heard again in the room.

The vehicle started, and Chen Yi looked at the evidence bag in his hand, which contained damaged photos.

If Bao Linlin was a participant, she could actually throw away the photos in advance, but she didn't.

It doesn't matter whether she is lost or not. Suspicion is always just suspicion. Without evidence or confession, the police can't do anything to her.

Co-pilot, Lin Chen turned around and said, "Captain Chen, this method of muddying the waters doesn't seem like something Fan Zhimei could have come up with. Could Bao Linlin be the mastermind? She has nothing to do all day, so she has plenty of time to prepare. Maybe she learned it from a movie."

When that photo was discovered, it meant that Bao Linlin was also a potential suspect.

One provided the tools and the other carried out the crime, and they collaborated to poison Gong Qingliang.

Chen Yi said: "The difficulty of this case is still unsolved. Whether there is one murderer or two murderers, the result is the same."

Lin Chen said casually: "Maybe all four of them are involved."

Chen Yi did not refute this statement. What he needed to do now was to conduct a comprehensive investigation on the four people and try to find the connection points.

If it is really a collaboration to kill someone, such a serious matter must be discussed in person.
