Animal Detective

Chapter 271 Fate

Did he fall for it?

Liu Baoqing asked quietly.

"What do you say?"

Fan Lei asked a question in return, and then said, "Anyway, he definitely fell for it that night. I filmed it, and then went back to the construction site dormitory, where he was waiting for me outside."

“I showed him the video, and he didn’t say anything. He just gave me the gold and left.”

“He found out the next day and called to yell at me. So I said I might have killed the wrong person and would kill the wrong person for him later. What could he do? Could he call the police and say I lied to him?”

He smiled contemptuously.

As he himself said, he wanted to use Huang Weili's life to control Yang Xing.

His nonchalant tone made Liu Baoqing frown even more.

In the crowded observation room, someone muttered "bastard."

Shen Xin remained silent.

Previously, Lao Gao from Hongmei's office said that Fan Lei was a very honest person and good to his family.

This is good.

However, he also has a cold-blooded and cruel side, and he doesn't value human life at all.

Inside, Fan Lei continues to recount the process of killing Huang Weili and the other person.

It wasn't a surprise attack.

Before killing Huang Weili, he first inquired about Xu Ruilin's situation, and then stood beside Huang Weili and chatted for a while.

Fan Lei stared at Xu Ruilin for a long time.

According to him, the reason he went to work at the Fengyushanhe construction site was because the site was in Nanzhu, which was closer to Xu Ruilin's home.

He had been planning this for a long time and had even considered breaking into the house to commit murder.

So he's been fishing at the reservoir for a long time and is quite familiar with Huang Weili and the others.

Huang Weili never dreamed that an "acquaintance" he often met and could exchange fishing tips with would suddenly kill him.

The same thing happened with Xu Ruilin.

Although Huang Weili was killed, Xu Ruilin never expected that the murderer would be Fan Lei.

Fan Lei simply walked over, stood behind Xu Ruilin and watched him fish for a while, then, taking advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention, he smashed Xu Ruilin to death with a stone.

Without the slightest hesitation.

Moreover, Shen Xin felt that Fan Lei's killing of Huang Weili might not have been as he claimed, that he was forced into a corner by Yang Xing and had no other choice.

This guy asked for two bills.

The price he agreed on with Yang Xing was five kilograms of gold, which is more than one million yuan.

After Yang Xing realized he had been tricked, Fan Lei promised to find an opportunity to help him kill again.

Then they asked for money.

They say you get paid for every life you give, so I can't work for free.

Yang Xing had no choice but to agree.

This led to Xu Ruilin's death.

Therefore, Shen Xin felt that Fan Lei might have already planned to take advantage of the opportunity to get more money when he decided to kill Huang Weili.

Inside, Liu Baoqing asked Yang Xing about his motive for wanting to kill Xu Ruilin.

Fan Lei shook his head: "I don't know, and I don't care. It seems to be a business matter."

After saying that, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Please don't make things difficult for my wife and son. This has nothing to do with them. It was my own decision to do it."

"When Yang Xing contacted me after the New Year, I didn't want to talk to him. After all, I had been in prison for so many years and knew that there was no good end to crime."

"But who knew I'd be so unlucky? I was diagnosed with stomach cancer."

Last year, Fan Lei often had stomach pains, but he would just buy some stomach medicine and take it without really seeing a doctor.

After the New Year, the pain became unbearable, so I went to the hospital, only to find out that it was stomach cancer.

"So I contacted Yang Xing again, hoping to leave some money for my wife and children. To be honest, I bear a lot of responsibility for my son's current situation and I always feel indebted to them."

"pity……"

He let out a long sigh and said no more.

"pity?"

Liu Baoqing snorted softly, thinking to himself, "It's a pity you didn't hide your gold well, is it?"

Liu Baoqing patted the table and said, "You've been very lucky. You committed so many crimes back then. Li Fanwang, Zhu Mei, Chang Shiyuan, have you forgotten all those names?"

When you hurt them, did they ever complain about their bad luck?

“You went to jail, but the law has given you a chance to start over. Your wife has stayed by your side and waited for you for ten years, helping you raise your son. You have a chance to live a good life.”

But did you cherish it?

Liu Baoqing retorted loudly.

Fan Lei didn't speak, biting his lip tightly.

Liu Baoqing continued, "When we were looking for your wife, she was crying anxiously and swore to us that you had been to jail, reformed, and would never do bad things again. And what happened?"

"When you killed Huang Weili and Xu Ruilin, did you think about your wife? You said you had bad luck, but Huang Weili had a good life and deserved to be killed by you?"

Fan Lei waved his hand, his expression pained: "I beg you, please stop talking."

Liu Baoqing suppressed his anger and continued the interrogation.

Inside the observation room, Zhao Hongjie turned to Zhang Hancheng with a serious expression and said, "The murderer has been apprehended, but the case is only half-solved. We can't let Yang Xing get away."

"Knowing that Fan Lei had killed the wrong person, he still didn't stop and insisted on killing Xu Ruilin. This is extremely heinous."

Fan Lei was accused of premeditated murder.

Yang Xing's actions were even more heinous; he went so far as to pay money twice in order to kill Xu Ruilin.

Zhang Hancheng nodded, immediately left the observation room, and called Du Yong to inquire about Yang Xing's situation. Fan Lei, who was inside, also revealed a detail.

That was the video he showed Yang Xing, using a different phone.

Yang Xing bought this phone specifically for him, and also bought a phone number online for the two of them to contact each other.

The video was shown to Yang Xing, and Yang Xing deleted it on the spot.

However, Fan Lei was cautious and kept the video on his phone.

His plan was that he might be able to blackmail Yang Xing again later, or use him as a trump card to prevent Yang Xing from discarding him after he had served his purpose.

And now this video will become important evidence.

However, Fan Lei has already confessed thoroughly, and even without this video evidence, it is enough to convict him from Yang Xing's side.

The trial ends.

Zhao Hongjie stood up and showered everyone with praise once again.

Although it wasn't time to reward those who had contributed, Zhao Hongjie felt it was necessary to visit Tiankui, Odin, and other meritorious officials.

Shen Xin has to accompany him.

At the police dog base, Tang Changhong was obviously aware of Tian Kui and his team's search for Fan Lei, and he praised Tian Kui and his team extensively.

"Director Zhao, to be honest, I've been training police dogs for almost thirty years, and I've never seen such a human-like and intelligent police dog."

"Just imagine the scene," Tang Changhong said with a wave of his hand. "Dozens of police dogs running all over the place, what criminal could possibly escape?"

The more he spoke, the more excited he became.

He regretted not being there and not witnessing the scene firsthand.

"Little Shen, you're amazing."

He looked at Shen Xin again, wanting to praise him lavishly, but couldn't find the words, so he just gave him a thumbs up.

Zhao Hongjie laughed heartily and told Shen Xin that it was rare to see Tang Changhong so excited.

He wasn't at the scene, but he heard about the search process from Zhang Hancheng and the others, and he also saw footage taken by drones.

In the mountains and forests, police dogs were running around, and the sight made his blood boil.

In the past, when prisoners ran into the mountains, organizing a search was always a huge undertaking, exhausting everyone involved.

As Tang Changhong said, the use of police dogs this time will make criminals nowhere to hide.

Thinking of this, Zhao Hongjie said to Shen Xin, "Xiao Shen, this is a very good case, which greatly proves that police dogs can play a huge role in solving cases."

"Go back and have a good exchange of ideas with Director Tang and the others, summarize your experiences, and see if you can put them into a report. I'll organize people to study it in depth later."

"I think this can definitely be used as a new method and a new approach to handling cases."

“You’re young and quick-witted, so use your brain more and see if you can promote these experiences. If you have any requests or difficulties, just let me know and I’ll find a way to solve them.”

Shen Xin nodded repeatedly, his heart filled with excitement.

This requires reporting and organizing people to study it.

So what is this? It's a result!

"Director Zhao, I will definitely cooperate with Director Tang to do a good job in summarizing the work," Shen Xin said immediately.

A thought suddenly occurred to Shen Xin.

After thinking for a moment, and taking advantage of the fact that the leader was there and in a good mood, Shen Xin said, "Director Zhao, I happen to have an idea that I'd like to share with you."

Zhao Hongjie said "Oh," and told Shen Xin to speak directly.

Shen Xin said, "I heard from the technical investigation team at our branch that there is a kind of smart helmet for police dogs in Songpu."

"This helmet has an integrated camera that can transmit images in real time. I think that if we had this kind of helmet, the pursuit would have been even more efficient."

Zhao Hongjie perked up and asked what kind of helmet it was.

Shen Xin really didn't know this.

However, Shen Xin felt that it would be much more convenient if the helmet had an image transmission function.

Zhao Hongjie nodded and said, "Okay, I'll have someone inquire about it later and find out what's going on. If it works well, we'll buy a batch."

Having agreed, he then asked Shen Xin if she had any other ideas.

In the midst of their excitement, Zhao Hongjie was practically obliging to every request.

After personally visiting and offering his regards to Odin and Tiankui, Zhao Hongjie left the police dog base.

After watching the car drive away, Tang Changhong turned his head and stared at Shen Xin.

That look in his eyes, you could almost feel the silkiness in them.

"Xiao Shen, to be honest, you should just stay here. I really think you have a lot to offer in police dog training."

After this manhunt, Tang Changhong finally understood what talent truly meant.

Someone like Shen Xin.

He grabbed Shen Xin and said in a low voice, "Xiao Shen, think about it yourself. It's so hard for you to get promoted in the criminal investigation department, but it's different in the police dog field."

"We're in technical positions, so as long as you're capable, you'll get promoted very quickly. Like I said, if you settle down in this field and work hard, I guarantee you'll be wearing a white shirt when you're in your thirties or forties."

The old man directly tempted Shen Xin with the lure of power.

How could Shen Xin not be tempted?

That's a white shirt.

If you can wear a white shirt at fifty, you've already been promoted very quickly.

As Tang Changhong said, it's unimaginable that people in their thirties or forties would wear it.

"Director Tang, please don't try to persuade me. I'm wholeheartedly devoted to criminal investigation. Well, the special task force isn't finished yet, so I'll be going now."

Shen Xin quickly took his leave.

The white shirts worn by technical staff are completely different from the plain white shirts worn by Zhao Hongjie.
