what's in the depths

Back at the police station, he found Yi Lin's fingerprint collection book from the evidence room. Zhu Yuhan compared it and found that the fingerprints of the index finger and middle finger of his right hand were indeed the same.

Zhu Yuhan called Yi Lin to inquire and asked him to come to the police station, but Yi Lin said that he recently went to Lin Province to participate in an academic seminar with the school leaders, and he would not come back until a week later.

At this time, the technical department also gave a list of users who had purchased a large amount of formalin.

Many people use pseudonyms, but based on the address, it can be roughly found out which user bought it. There is only one user, and the mailing address is Zhongshan Yipin Community, and there is no detailed building number and unit number.

There are many courier cabinets in Yipin District, Zhongshan. Usually, the courier will only send a text message according to the mobile phone number to remind the customer to go to the courier cabinet to pick up the courier. However, this user not only uses a fake name, but also a fake mobile phone number. It was discovered that it was a foreign account, and it was picked up by a junior high school student.

Looking at it now, it can be basically concluded that the user who bought a large amount of formalin and left false information was the murderer of Chen Xiyan.

"The murderer bought the formalin on May [-]th, so it was a premeditated murder. He is familiar with the environment of the community and knows that the power will be cut off for maintenance on the [-]th. He also knows that Chen Xiyan He must be at home." Zhu Yuhan asked thoughtfully.

"Yes, if, as you said, the lamps in Chen Xiyan's house were still on after the power was restored, then the murderer committed the crime before [-]:[-] p.m. There is a big discrepancy between the time of committing the crime between five o'clock." Hawthorne recorded this clue on the whiteboard.

"So the murderer entered Chen Xiyan's house before six o'clock? And the power was cut off that night, how did Chen Xiyan see her appearance through the mirror after waking up? That still doesn't make sense, if Chen Xiyan's The violin became the murder weapon used to attack her and cause her to faint, but the murderer planned it in advance, why not find a murder weapon at hand?"

Huo Sang was startled, and suddenly raised his head: "There is only one reason, the murder weapon is not the violin, but the violin is physical evidence that can prove the special relationship between the murderer and the victim Chen Xiyan."

Zhu Yuhan suddenly thought that in handling Tang Leguang's case, there was a world-class collector's edition cello worth more than 100 million yuan, which was given to Tang Leguang by Shangguan Shidi. Give it away.

"Check, check Yi Lin's purchase records or auction records to see if he has bought or auctioned any particularly expensive violins."

"There's no need to check." As soon as the words fell, a brown and furry head came into the door.

The two looked along the trend and found that it was Tong Si.

"Why not investigate? The murderer voluntarily surrendered?"

It was originally a joke, which was unthinkable, but Tong Si gave an affirmative answer:

"That's right, the murderer voluntarily surrendered."

----------

In the empty interrogation room, a woman sat at the table, her hair was neatly tied up, her makeup was elegant, but her complexion was slightly haggard.

It was only three days since seeing this woman last time, Hawthorne did not expect to meet again in this way.

The person who surrendered was none other than Ren Fang, that noble woman who has received countless praises.

Even though she was charged as a "murderer", she still proudly straightened her back and held her head high, like her son Ren Yu, like an elegant white swan.

She even calmly apologized to the police, saying that she killed Chen Xiyan, and she was very sorry for causing trouble to the police for so many days.

"Didn't you lead students in Russia during the incident? Where did you get the time to commit the crime?" Zhu Yuhan obviously didn't believe it.

"Because I came back from Russia on May [-]th, and after killing Chen Xiyan, I rushed back to Russia." As she spoke, she took out four air tickets from her bag and handed them to Zhu Yuhan.

Zhu Yuhan dubiously took the ticket and looked at it. Sure enough, Ren Fang returned from Russia on the afternoon of May [-]th, and she returned to Russia on the afternoon of May [-]th.

"Then why did you kill Chen Xiyan?"

Ren Fang rubbed her hands, and after a while, she smiled bitterly: "Because I found out that she and my husband have had an improper relationship between men and women for two years. I went to her and hoped that she would not destroy other people's families and let her She left my husband earlier, but she disagreed, not only did she not agree, she also clamored that she could still get a postgraduate quota through my husband and continue to follow my husband as his student."

"So, you just peeled her skin and put it at your door, wanting to remind your husband?" Zhu Yuhan stared at her with knife-like eyes.

"Correct."

"And what about the corpse?"

"It's dealt with."

"How to deal with it."

"Dismember the corpse, then dissolve it with strong acid, flush it into the toilet, and destroy the corpse." Ren Fang chuckled, "I finally understand that the dead are obedient."

"But according to the records, the community was cut off for maintenance on the night of May [-]th. How did you complete the killing and skinning in the dark?"

"I stunned her with a frying pan first, and then peeled off the skin. I tied a wolf-eyed flashlight to the light in the bathroom. The light is still ok, so I can see clearly."

Zhu Yuhan smiled and shook his head, then sat up straight, stroked his chin and joked:

"I can't see it. You are such a thin woman. You completed the skinning and dismemberment by yourself, but it's so strange. Why didn't I hear the neighbor say that there was any big movement that night."

Ren Fang raised her head and stared straight at Zhu Yuhan's eyes, as if she wanted to read his inner thoughts through these eyes.

"You may not believe it." Zhu Yuhan leaned over, "Actually, the corpse was not disposed of at all, but was preserved. You know, what method is used to store the corpse so that it will not rot early in this hot weather. Is it?"

Ren Fang's pupils contracted violently in an instant, and with the reflexive tightening of her ten fingers, the exquisite crystal nails were deeply embedded in the flesh of her palm.

"Oh, I have to say that smart women like you are really rare. It took us half a month for the police to analyze how the victim Chen Xiyan died, but you only took three days."

"You, what nonsense are you talking about? Of course I know the whole process of the person I killed." Ren Fang was still laughing, but very reluctantly.

Zhu Yuhan smiled coldly: "Let me guess, who is willing to let you give up your bright future and willingly take the blame? Is it your husband who has long been related in name only, or... your excellent and proud son, Ren Yu—"

"I said I killed it, don't spit blood, this matter has nothing to do with my son!" In desperation, Ren Fang even got up suddenly and shouted regardless of her image.

"Don't worry, we really don't have evidence to prove that Ren Yu killed the person, but we have sufficient evidence to prove that the person was not killed by you. I am really curious, why are you bothering? There is no need to steal and rob. This is murder. Once convicted, decades or no term is better, and the worst result is the death penalty.”

"Why do you bother?" Ren Fang took a deep breath, "There is such a murderer who voluntarily surrendered, so that you don't have to continue to waste energy or even bear the opportunity of infamy, you can accept it obediently, why do you doubt it? uneasy."

Having been a police officer for more than ten years, this is the first time I have encountered such a strange thing and rushed to plead guilty.

"Yes, your suggestion is indeed good, but this kind of premeditated murder has a very high possibility of recidivism. You can't ignore the dangers of other people just because you are greedy for a moment of comfort. This is the principle and the basics of being a human being."

And Ren Fang seems to be extremely disdainful of this "principle".

"We will find the evidence as soon as possible, and we won't let the good people suffer a little, and we won't let the bad people get away with it." Zhu Yuhan smiled, "Tong Si, take her back first."

Ren Fang didn't say a word, Tong Si was just about to go to help her, but she was ruthlessly thrown away: "I can walk by myself, there is no need."

Looking at the back of Ren Fang leaving, Zhu Yuhan shook his head helplessly: "Really, she is still angry if she is not arrested. It is not because of illness or something."

"She is so eager to take the blame, the murderer is probably one of her husband and son."

"The son was traveling in Thailand at the time, so maybe it was her husband?"

"Fingerprints, he pressed the fingerprints of the middle finger of his right hand on the collection point of the index finger, deliberately concealing something, the hand was injured? Or is that hand without fingerprints?"

"Now that he has gone to other provinces again, shouldn't he want to abscond in fear of crime?" Zhu Yuhan sometimes thinks about it.

"Don't you think it's a bit strange?" Hawthorne thought for a moment, then suddenly said.

"How to say."

"If it's true as she said, she and her husband have a relationship that exists in name only and have lost their feelings for a long time, then why should she come out to take the blame, and why should she care so much about the relationship between her husband and other women."

Zhu Yuhan sighed after hearing this: "No matter how powerful a woman is, she has her own weaknesses, such as family and children. For these things, they even dare to raise weapons to kill people, so it's nothing to take the blame."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Yuhan himself realized what was wrong: "Huh? So, she is taking the blame for her son Ren Yu?"

"Did she know something, or did her son confess to him? But Ren Yu was indeed in Thailand at the time, which doesn't make sense."

"Just now I forgot to ask her why she came back from Russia all the way on the [-]th."

"Don't ask too much." Hawthorne stared at the door, "With her character, if she fully reveals the police's investigation plan, there is no guarantee that he will communicate with the real murderer and destroy the evidence early. What we have to do now is Investigate the source of the violin, and after Yi Lin returns, compare his fingerprints with those in the collection book in detail, and the answer will be clear at a glance."

"But it is still necessary to call Ren Yu to ask again. I feel that this matter cannot be said to have nothing to do with him."
