Criminal evidence

The area around the crime site is densely populated and the terrain is complex. In the area Shen Changyan marked out to belong to the search area alone, there are more than 20 alleys, and at least thousands of people live there, with varying quality.

"What are you talking about with the police? The Mu family didn't do a good job on weekdays. They offended people outside, provoked their enemies to come to their door, and killed their granddaughter. What does this rags have to do with other people's families?"

"Currently the case has not progressed, and the victim was killed innocently. What's more, the neighbors all say that the Mu family is a good person. Before the police investigate the cause and effect, any groundless speculation and discussion will be a secondary injury to the victim's family."

"If it hurts or not, I can still control them? If I don't know, I don't know. You policemen will come to harass the civilians if you don't do your business. Get out, get out, and scare my family later. I'm not done with you guys."

The last household on the list was also the one that everyone unanimously told the police that this was the address of the deceased Mu Duo's best friend during his lifetime.

I thought I could ask something out of favor, but I didn't know that when I came to the door, I was scolded like this.

Grandma slammed the door shut with an emotional "bang".

Lu Qinghe was almost accidentally injured, he had no choice but to turn around and ask, "What should I do?"

Shen Changyan pursed his lips tightly. He stood there for a few seconds, then stepped forward to knock on the door.

Lu Qinghe leaned aside and said sarcastic words, "What do you mean by that, don't tell me the door won't be opened when I knock on it, will it open when you knock on it?"

Shen Changyan didn't argue with him, his eyes darkened, and the strength of his hands gradually increased. After knocking like this for about ten minutes, the grandmother couldn't stand it and opened the door to scold them again.

"Tell you to go quickly, don't you understand? Keep knocking and knocking. Knock, knock. It's almost one o'clock. It's almost time for our little treasure to take a nap. Hurry up and hear me. Knock again and I can go out." Your head is splashed with water."

Shen Changyan saw the timing, stretched out his hand to grab the edge of the door with his elbow, pushed it out hard, and the door was pushed open by half an inch.

He calmly said the last sentence, "First warning."

Grandma was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "What warning are you warning? I warned you first. If you don't leave, I will go to the gate of the Public Security Bureau to pull up a banner tomorrow. Bullying people even bullies me."

Shen Changyan's face was gloomy, and he turned a deaf ear to Grandma's words. He added another sentence, "Second warning."

Perhaps this guy looks a bit like "enforcing the law impartially", and the two big characters "justice" are engraved on his face, and his aura is always a bit scary.

Grandma stammered and didn't know what he was going to do, so she used her strength to break the door frame with him.

It's only a one-year-old woman, so how can she be Shen Changyan's opponent.

So at the moment when the two sides were at a stalemate, Lu Qinghe suddenly realized that he hurriedly stepped forward and said.

"Captain Shen, do you want me to go down and ask the brothers to come up and help?"

There was ambiguity in saying this, and Grandma was startled, so she asked him, "Who are you, what can you do for me, what do you want to do, are you the police?"

Lu Qinghe said, "Of course we are the police, and handle the case according to the law. I'm sorry, but you repeatedly obstructed law enforcement. According to regulations, you will be detained for three to fifteen days."

"When did I hinder you from enforcing the law?"

"When it is clear that your grandson and the deceased played together in a small square the day before the incident, you refused to cooperate with the police's routine inquiries and threatened with your words. This is obstructing law enforcement. If the circumstances are extremely bad, it can also be classified To cover up the murderer."

"Don't talk nonsense, this big mouth comes and convicts people, and I want to sue you for talking nonsense."

Lu Qinghe smiled like a hooligan, only Shen Changyan ordered with a cold face, "Go and call everyone up."

"Okay Captain Shen, I'll go down and call for someone. If it really doesn't work, I think we'll just open the door for her, so as to save the whole afternoon of tossing and hurting the hands of those who knock on it."

Before Shen Changyan could nod his head, he heard Grandma shout.

"What door do you want to tear down? What door do you want to tear down? The door of our house is a new door just replaced this year. It is anti-theft and expensive. If you break it down, you will have to pay for it."

Shen Changyan said, "During the process of handling the case, if the item is damaged, the bureau has a unified compensation standard, and there will be a special person to contact you at that time."

"You really want to tear down my house, why are you?"

"You still refused to open the door and verbally insulted the criminal police even after being repeatedly informed of the need to handle the case. I now reasonably suspect that there may be some important breakthroughs in the case in your home."

When he said this, Shen Changyan paused for a moment, and then his tone became heavier.

"For example, the police have not yet found the clothing that the deceased was wearing when he was killed."

Grandma became anxious, "Don't talk nonsense."

Shen Changyan simply let go of the fingers holding the door of the other party's house, he took a step back, and told Lu Qinghe to say.

"Find someone to come up and open the door."

"Yes."

Lu Qinghe ran downstairs in response to the sound.

But before he could go too far, he heard someone shouting behind him.

"It's really unlucky to meet you in broad daylight. If you ask questions, just ask questions. Don't talk nonsense with our little treasure. If you scare my children, I will bring people to your police station in the morning. Demolished."

Even though he was relieved when he said this, Lu Qinghe turned around cheerfully, only to see that Shen Changyan had entered the house unceremoniously.

The child was sitting on the sofa, when he saw a stranger coming in, he immediately stood up straight, and then hid behind his grandmother.

Lu Qinghe waved to the child and said, "Don't be afraid, kid, the police uncle is here to protect you."

The child poked out one eye from behind Grandma, hesitated for a long time before calling out, "I didn't kill Mu Duo, uncle policeman, please don't arrest me and put me in jail."

Shen Changyan turned around after hearing this, and asked, "Who said you killed Mu Duo?"

Hearing this, the child turned his mouth downwards, and burst into tears with an involuntary "Wow".

Lu Qinghe hastily stepped forward and squatted in front of the child, wiping away his tears, and hugging the child, patting his back and softly coaxing him.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, no one will arrest you and go to jail, the police uncle will only ask you a few words if you are okay."

The child was still crying.

Shen Changyan didn't seem to be able to hear him, he only took two steps towards the child, and then asked, "Who said that the police uncle wants to arrest you and put you in jail, and who said that Mu Duo was killed by you?"

This guy can't always realize correctly that due to the joint oppression caused by the aura around him, let alone a child, even if the criminal investigation team has dinner in private, someone will occasionally say something.

"Captain Shen is really scary."

Before Lu Qinghe had time to tell Shen Changyan to restrain himself, the grandma was angrily trying to drive them away again.

"You bunch of dead people are really annoying, I told you not to scare our children, don't scare our children..."

The old man came forward to catch up, but Shen Changyan was relentless.

He grabbed the man's forearm and asked another question.

"Who said these things to the child?"

Grandma faltered, looked around and said, "Who knows where he heard this, you guys go, go, this matter really has nothing to do with our family."

"Is it just you and your child living in this house?"

"And the grandpa of the child."

"Where's his grandpa?"

"The old man has to go out to play cards every day. He went out at eight o'clock this morning and didn't come back. He usually doesn't get home until six o'clock in the afternoon."

"What about the child's parents?"

Grandma looked at the child being coaxed by Lu Qinghe in her arms, and then said, "His parents are working out of town."

Shen Changyan said, "You're lying."

Seeing that grandma kept avoiding her sight, Shen Changyan spoke again.

"This is a two-bedroom room. When I entered the door just now, I saw that the beds in the two rooms were neatly laid out, and they were all mats. It's hot now. If there were no people sleeping in both beds, you should You won’t put a mat on the other bed, right?”

"I, there are three people in our family, what's so strange about sleeping in two beds?"

"Then may I ask you to sleep in the same bed with the child, and the child's grandfather sleeps in the same bed?"

"Yes, yes."

"You lied again." Shen Changyan's face darkened, as if he had lost his patience.

He said, "There are two bedrooms here, one bedroom has two pillows on the bed, and the other bedroom has one pillow on the bed, and on the bed with two pillows, the color of the two pillowcases is obviously stained. The yellowing traces of sweat stains can prove that the bed with two pillows has been used all year round, while the pillowcase on the bed with only one pillow is very clean, do you know what this means?"

Lu Qinghe answered the conversation with the child in his arms, "It means that although there are people sleeping in the bed with only one pillow, the people who live there don't often come home to use it."

Shen Changyan nodded, and he said, "That's right, and normally, even a child can't sweat so much, so the bedroom with two pillows is right for you and your old man to live together ?"

Grandma was speechless, but Shen Changyan only called Lu Qinghe to speak.

"Lu Qinghe, go to the next door and ask the neighbors if the son of this family returned home the night of the incident."

Lu Qinghe went out with the child in his arms, but came back soon, he said next to Shen Changyan's ear.

"I don't know what to say. They just say that this family does have a son who is idle and idle. He occasionally goes home and sometimes doesn't go home. The family didn't pay attention to whether he came back or not on the night of the incident."

Shen Changyan nodded, and he said, "Let your son come to the Public Security Bureau after he gets home, and bring your grandson with him."

Grandma shouted, "Comrade policeman, please don't wrong us. The murder of the Mu family's granddaughter really has nothing to do with our family. We are all law-abiding ordinary people. You must see clearly."

Shen Changyan didn't stay too long, he just went out.

"The premise of knowing clearly is that you have to tell me the truth first."

Coming down from upstairs again, the glaring sunlight still didn't seem to dissipate in the slightest.

Lu Qinghe leaned against the concrete wall to hide from the sun, and he didn't speak until the sweat had dissipated.

"Shen Changyan, this is not your style of questioning. Why did you leave today after saying just a few words?"

Shen Changyan also leaned aside, and he said, "People whose first sentence is a lie, even if you ask them a hundred more sentences, there is a high probability that 99 sentences will be false. Besides, it is so hot today, and I am in the room. What are you doing so hard with her?"

Lu Qinghe said, "Damn, don't be too suspicious. There is only a three-year-old boy and an old aunt in her fifties, who can do crazy and heartless things, let alone commit such a cruel murder. Can it be so easy for you to grasp the handle?"

It's not that Lu Qinghe looks down on people, it's just that the old aunt's words and actions are full of mistakes, and to put it bluntly, she doesn't write a draft when she tells lies. That's it, if she really kills someone, she can't pee her pants when she sees the police?

Shen Changyan said, "This is the truth, but in the process of handling the case, we must not let go of any minor doubts."

Lu Qinghe curled his lips, but still nodded in approval and said, "Yes, there is the last family left now, let's go."

Shen Changyan didn't move at all, he said, "Wait a few more minutes."

Lu Qinghe laughed at him, "Why, are you still hot?"

Shen Changyan shook his head, he said, "Wait another 10 minutes, let's go upstairs to find their neighbor next door."

Lu Qinghe said, "I've asked them all, but judging from the attitude of the neighbors, it seems that they don't like their house very much."

Shen Changyan said, "If you go over and ask with your child in your arms, the neighbors will more or less hold back for the sake of face. Besides, everyone usually looks up and down, so some things can't be said too badly. Let's wait, wait. Let's go up and ask together."
