Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 283 Dead End

Three days flew by.

After a thorough investigation, there was still no result. The case had reached a dead end.

After the meeting on the morning of June 11, Li Yancheng took Su Xiaotong to the staff quarters of the instrument factory again.

After the car stopped at the gate, the two did not get out, but sat in the car with frowns on their faces, looking at the gate of the family compound.

Today is Wednesday. It is almost ten o'clock, which is working hours. There are not many people coming in and out of the gate.

Over the past three days, they have tried every possible method. They have interrogated Cao Wanquan, Shi Huaian, Yin Anda, and Xue Baolai, the four who were captured alive, countless times.

Even Liang Jinhua took the initiative to accept Li Yancheng's special interrogation method. The results proved that this woman did not participate in what her husband did, and her subsequent confession was indeed not a lie.

And during the times mentioned by Cao Wanquan, the woman did not go out to meet him.

Although Xue Baolai had a good relationship with her husband, she had no private relationship with this man.

Therefore, Liang Jinhua's suspicion has been completely cleared. What remains is to see whether she will be prosecuted in the future for covering up for her husband Wei Haiping.

The more they investigate this case, the more confused everyone becomes.

As for the mysterious person online, we now have no other information except that we know that it is most likely two people, a man and a woman, who have similar body shapes and the woman's left hand may have been burned by fire. Her true identity will surprise many people.

"Oh, Yancheng, I was so busy that I almost forgot. The prison guards at the Artillery Bureau said Chen Yunwei wanted to see you, and she said she would go on a hunger strike if you didn't go see her.

It has already started. Since the three of them were sent there the day before yesterday, they have not eaten or drunk anything.

This morning, the director of the detention center saw that this was not going to work. If someone died before the trial, he would be held responsible, so he called the office and wanted to see if you could go over and see her so that she could have a normal trial. "

After looking at the gate of the instrument factory's staff quarters for a while, Su Xiaotong suddenly remembered the phone call he received in the morning and turned to talk to Li Yancheng.

"Okay, I'll go over and take a look when I get back. I don't know what the woman is up to."

"No matter what she wants to do, as long as she can live to face the trial, it's fine. The higher-ups have already decided to hold public trials for the cases involving her family. The specific time has not been determined, but it will definitely be within this month. It would not look good if she died early."

"okay, I get it."

"By the way, what on earth do you want to do by dragging me here? Are you just going to sit here and watch? What can you tell from this?"

"I can't see anything, so let's get out of the car and look around."

After saying that, Li Yancheng opened the car door and got out.

Su Xiaotong, who was sitting in the passenger seat, rolled his eyes in frustration and had no choice but to get out of the car as well.

"The case has reached a dead end. Let's go back to the crime scene."

"Which crime scene are you returning to? The secretly filmed materials aren't here either."

"The scene where Wei Haiping died."

"Can I call you brother? Wei Haiping has been dead for half a month. What can I see here now?"

Outsiders entering the family compound had to register. Although colleagues from the bureau's security department were on duty here, the two of them didn't do anything special and were only allowed to enter after writing in the registration book.

Li Yancheng ignored Su Xiaotong's complaints and went straight to the staff building where Wei Haiping lived after entering.

This time he did not go upstairs from the middle unit, but went directly to the roof from the east unit.

"Xiaotong, according to Liang Jinhua's account, Wei Haiping had originally intended to turn himself in to the police station that morning, and he had even taken out his savings certificate and was ready to hand it in to the police station, right?"

"right"

"But he seemed to have heard something, ran out of the house in a hurry, and then fell from the roof a few minutes later.

After he ran out, Liang Jinhua ran out a few seconds or ten seconds later. She saw someone coming down the stairs through the gap in the stairwell. She thought it was her husband and called out twice, but the man didn't respond. At that time, Wei Haiping was probably right above her head, but she didn't know it. "

"That's right. She didn't say yes, so she went back into the house and leaned against the window to look, but she didn't see her husband go out. She thought she was too slow, so she went to the toilet. But before she finished using the toilet, ..."

"That is to say, it is very likely that Wei Haiping was controlled as soon as he reached the roof. No, more than controlled, he was made unconscious because he did not make any noise."

"Yes, after laboratory tests, no traces of drugs were detected in Wei Haiping's blood or respiratory tract, which means that he might have been knocked unconscious as soon as he reached the roof.

Unfortunately, he fell headfirst, and his head was completely deformed, so there was no way to find any signs of being hit."

At this time, Li Yancheng had already walked to the edge of the roof. He stood at the place where Wei Haiping's traces were left, stretched his head and looked down, felt a little dizzy, and quickly retracted his head.

"Xiaotong, how did that man throw Wei Haiping down?"

Without waiting for Su Xiaotong to answer, Li Yancheng continued, "He definitely didn't drag the unconscious Wei Haiping to the rooftop and then throw him down.

Because he didn't dare to bet whether someone in the building opposite might happen to see it.

Another point is the time. From the time Wei Haiping climbed up the stairs to the time he fell down and died, the longest period of time was probably only five or six minutes.

The murderer had to knock the man unconscious and move him to the side. Even if he dragged him over and pushed him down directly, he would have to arrange the scene to remove all traces of his presence, leaving only traces of Wei Haiping and faking the scene of the jump. This would not be enough time."

Su Xiaotong first glanced at the building opposite. Shi Huaian's home was in that building. It was on the roof of that building that he saw Xue Baolai slap Wei Haiping in the face at Wei's house. "By the way, Yan Cheng, go back and wait for Xue Baolai to wake up. Remember to ask him why he slapped Wei Haiping three years ago."

"it is good"

After explaining the situation, Su Xiaotong began to speak along the lines of Li Yancheng's previous thoughts.

"There should have been two people upstairs at the time, one responsible for throwing Wei Haiping down, and the other responsible for setting up the scene."

“I think it should be like this, otherwise one person simply can’t handle it all.

These two people must be very familiar to everyone. Even if they are not residents of this building, others will not find it strange to see them here.

Xiaotong, tell me, could these two people be the two mysterious online masters? "

"It's very possible." Su Xiaotong confirmed Li Yancheng's inference, but there was no joy on his face.

“The problem is that we have reviewed the people in the family compound several times and we simply cannot find anyone who meets the requirements.

All residents in this building have been questioned, but they can't say who else would go up to their rooftop besides the residents of their building."

"Unexpected. I think the word 'unexpected' that Wei Haiping told his wife is crucial."

Li Yancheng walked to the steps outside the stairwell and sat down, then took out a cigarette and threw it to Su Xiaotong.

When he struck a match to light a cigarette and was about to throw the match away, he paused when he saw the clean rooftop.

"Xiaotong, is the rooftop cleaned by the residents in the building?"

"No, it's the couple who clean the yard."

"Oh, your last name is Ma, right?"

"Yes, he is fifty-four this year and it is time for him to retire. He was hired four years ago when the old director of the instrument factory was still alive. It is said that he is a relative of his."

"Is it unclear what it means?"

"It's not very clear." Su Xiaotong nodded and continued, "The man is called Ma Dagui and the woman's surname is Ha, which means "haha, haha, halan". They are both from ethnic minorities. Judging from the files, there is no problem.

The couple's age in the archives is 54 this year, but judging from their actual appearance, they look older, more than 60 years old. I guess 80% of it was just reported casually when the archives were created.

Their hometown is in Nanying, Fanglang District, where there are many ethnic minorities living. Ma Dagui and Harlan got married early, which was normal in that era.

When they were less than 20 years old, they followed their parents to Beijing to make a living, doing hard labor and often having no fixed place to live.

After September 1945, the city of Beijing was reorganized. Ma Dagui and Harlan came here because they had no household registration information in Beijing. By then, their parents were no longer around.

When they came here, Dianhai was still under the jurisdiction of four places. The place where they were belonged to the Western Suburbs and was named the 15th District.

After liberation, the administrative regions were redivided and this place was first changed to the 16th district of Beijing City, and later changed to the current Dianhai District.

After the couple came here, they relied on their brute strength from hard labor to grab a piece of land and build a house for themselves. All the people living in that area came from other places.

Later, all the shanty towns that were illegally built were demolished, and the people living there were dispersed to many places, including Yangchao. "

Su Xiaotong raised his hand and pointed to the north, then took out a thick-looking notebook from the bag on his back. When he opened it, he found that it was full of photos.

He rummaged through the pile of photos for a long time, took out two and handed them over.

"This is Ma Dagui and his wife."

Li Yancheng took it and looked at it. Indeed, the two people in the photo looked very old. They did not look like people in their fifties. They should have reported their ages falsely in order to get jobs in the early days of liberation.

He had seen the couple cleaning before, but they always wore masks when sweeping the floor, so he had never seen what they looked like in person.

"Didn't they have jobs before they came here to clean?"

"Yes, after liberation, our household registration was re-established. Because the couple had worked on a construction site, they were both assigned to the construction team. However, they were not regular employees but temporary workers. The instrument factory and the family compound were built by their construction team.

It was also at that time that they learned that the former director of the instrument factory was from the same place as them. Later, the two of them came to find the former director and after a conversation, they found out that they were actually a relative.

The old factory manager then brought them over from the construction team to clean up here."

"Don't they have children?"

"There was a child before, but it died young, and there were no more children later. Comrades from the Security Department have visited their hometown and mentioned the names of their parents. The older generation can still remember them, but when looking at their photos, those people can't even remember them.

As for their former neighbors here, the comrades from the Security Department found a few of them after much inquiry. After looking at the photos, those people said that these two people had aged quickly, but they were indeed the two who lived with them in the past.

As for the situation of their family when they first arrived in Beijing, there is no way to find out. "

After listening to this, Li Yancheng sighed and reached out to return the photo to Su Xiaotong, when he suddenly saw someone coming up to the rooftop of the building opposite. He looked carefully and raised his chin to signal.

"Xiaotong, that should be Ma Dagui, right?"
