The scene inside the house was obviously beyond everyone's expectations. Gong Peng stared blankly for a long time before realizing—"Second Sister!"

He yelled and rushed forward, Jiang Li Cheng Haiyang on the side quickly grabbed him.

"Second Sister!" Gong Peng's eyes were red, and he kept rushing forward. He was tall and burly, and Jiang Li and Cheng Haiyang could hardly hold him back.At the same time, Qin Kai walked over, knelt down and probed Gong Li's nose and neck, then turned around and shook his head at Shen Yan and the others: "He is dead."

"Second Sister!..." Gong Peng stopped struggling, tears streaming down his face.

The case was full of twists and turns, beyond everyone's expectations.Shen Yan stared at the scene, frowning deeply.

"Qin Kai, call the police station and tell Ruiheng and the forensics to come. Haiyang, go outside and seal off the scene."

"Yes!" The two got the order and hurried away immediately.

Shen Yan walked to the side, first called the sub-bureau in charge, notified the case, and formally took over the case after obtaining the approval of the sub-bureau in charge.Then, he walked to Gong Peng's side.

At this moment, Gong Peng was sitting on the steps outside the house. He put his hands on his knees, buried his head deeply inside, and seemed to be still crying from the faint twitch of his shoulders.Jiang Li was standing beside him looking at him, while Hao Jie was standing a little further away, with mixed expressions of anxiety and bewilderment on his face.

"Gong Peng," Shen Yan said.

Gong Peng raised his head, with tears still on his face.

"Do you know who killed your sister?"

Gong Peng shook his head feebly.

"Who knows what your sister and child are hiding here?"

"Me, my second sister and brother-in-law," Gong Peng said, his voice hoarse after crying, "I haven't told anyone, I don't know whether they have said it, but the more people who know about it, the more they said it. The less the better, be careful not to be found by the police, and you should not tell others."

"Where's your sister and wife?"

Gong Peng still shook his head.

"Do you have your brother-in-law's cell phone number? Call him and find out where he is now."

Gong Peng looked at Jiang Li who was at the side.Jiang Li handed him back his mobile phone - when he came here, in order to prevent Gong Peng from calling and reporting, his mobile phone has been kept by the police.

Gong Peng found a number and pressed the call button, Jiang Li took the phone and turned on the speaker.

After the phone rang a few times, it was connected, and a man's voice came over: "Why did you call? What did the police find?"

Jiang Li covered the microphone and whispered to Gong Peng: "Ask him where he is now."

"Brother-in-law, where are you now?"

"Someone buys something, I'm going to deliver it to someone, what's the matter?"

"Ask when he left, where is the child?" Jiang Li continued to order.

"When did you go out? Where's the child?"

"I came out after lunch. The child is at home with your sister. Your sister said that the person she contacted before might come over in the afternoon. If she sees the baby, she will probably take her away. What's wrong?"

"Ask him how long it will take to get home and tell him to come back quickly."

"How long will it take you to come back?"

"It will take another hour... What's wrong with you today? Did the police find a problem?"

"No, I'm just asking, you go back quickly, so that my sister won't be alone." When Gong Peng mentioned his sister, he immediately had the urge to cry again.He hastened to cover up and hung up the phone.

Jiang Li put away Gong Peng's phone, walked to Shen Yan's side and whispered: "It seems that his brother-in-law doesn't know that Gong Li is dead."

Shen Yan nodded slightly, agreeing with Jiang Li's guess.According to Gong Peng's previous explanation, the place where the child is hiding is actually the shop of Gong Li and Yuan Shuhai. The husband and wife are mainly engaged in the auto parts business and also run a small shop, which is a typical husband and wife shop.When Gong Peng and Gong Li were discussing about stealing the child, Gong Li proposed to hide the child here, firstly, so as not to delay the couple's business, secondly, this place is in the middle of the city center and the suburbs. There are cars coming and going, but most of them are passing by, and not many people actually stop.Moreover, there are small shops like this all around here, and people usually don't move around much, so they are relatively hidden.Moreover, according to their previous plan, the child was going to be sold to someone else, and not far from here was the highway crossing, so it was very convenient to transport the child away.Unexpectedly, people are not as good as heaven, and Gong Li was killed by someone herself.So those previous conveniences have all become inconveniences in the current investigation.Shen Yan looked at the desolate scenery and the bare road around him, and frowned deeply.

An hour later, Jiang Ruiheng, Cheng Jinsong, Li Jiayu and Su Mohan arrived at the scene and immediately began to investigate the scene.

The autopsy quickly came to a conclusion, "Based on the temperature of the deceased's liver, the time of death of the deceased should be between 13:14 and [-]:[-] this afternoon. The cause of death was a blunt blow to the back of the head. As for the murder weapon," Jiang Ruiheng said, raising Evidence bag, with a blood-stained white ashtray in between, "I guess it should be this thing."

Shen Yan nodded - he also noticed the ashtray just now, but he didn't move it so as not to affect the on-site identification.

"There were two scratches on the deceased's arm, which was very new. There were also tear marks on her blouse. It should be that she had a dispute with someone before she died. I checked, and there were no other injuries on the deceased's body, and there was no sign of being moved. .”

Cheng Jinsong also came over. He took off his gloves and said to Shen Yan: "I have checked, and there is no trace of picking the door lock, but they are a shop here, so it is normal if the door is not locked. There is no trace of being tampered with at the scene." , the several thousand yuan in cash in the desk drawer over there was not taken away, so it should not be for money. Judging from the current scene, the murderer's murder should have been on a whim. As for the purpose of the murder, I guess it is probably for child."

Shen Yan nodded - judging from the situation at the scene, the murderer didn't even search for money after the murder, but only took the child away.Just how did he know there were children here?And why take the child away? ...

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside, and a man was yelling loudly: "Don't stop me! I want to go in and have a look! That's my wife!..."

"It is estimated that Yuan Shuhai is back." Shen Yan said something, then turned and walked out.

They walked to the door together, and sure enough, they saw a tall and thin man shouting outside the isolation line. Jiang Li and Qin Kai stopped him, while Gong Peng stood aside, with tears on his face again.Shen Yan took a closer look, and that person was Yuan Shuhai.

"Yuan Shuhai?" Shen Yan said to him, "Come in."

Seeing Shen Yan speak, both Jiang Li and Qin Kai stopped.Yuan Shuhai stumbled into the room, and when he saw his wife's body lying on the ground, his feet went limp and he sat down on the ground.

"Hey!" Shen Yan rushed to pull, but Yuan Shuhai didn't get up, he sat there and cried loudly: "Daughter-in-law! Ahhh..."

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, don't be like this..." Gong Peng squatted down and wanted to pull, Yuan Shuhai seemed to have suddenly found someone to vent his anger on, he pulled Gong Peng and shouted: "It's you! You just let us help You stole the child, otherwise your sister would not have died! You were the one who killed your sister!" At the end, Yuan Shuhai raised his hand and punched Gong Peng in the face!

"Hey! Don't hit people!" Jiang Li Qin Kai hurried over to hold him back.

Although Yuan Shuhai was a little thin, he was a man after all, this punch made Gong Peng stagger, and the corners of his mouth were sullen.On the other side, Yuan Shuhai was still crying and wanting to hit someone, Qin Kai and others tried to stop him, but they couldn't cover Yuan Shuhai's ear-piercing cries.Seeing upset, Shen Yan shouted: "Okay! You also have a part in stealing the child! If the two of you hadn't agreed to help him steal the child, there wouldn't be so many troubles! Don't push the responsibility on others!"

Shen Yan's shout really had an effect, Yuan Shuhai froze in place, and after a while, he sat down like a deflated balloon.

Seeing him calm down, Shen Yan walked up to him and said coldly, "What time did you leave the house?"

"It's past twelve o'clock at noon," Yuan Shuhai replied with his head lowered and his face covered, with a tear in his voice.

"Were your wife and children still there when you went out?"

Yuan Shuhai nodded, "I left after I finished the lunch she cooked for me. She also told me that someone would come to see the child in the afternoon, and if everything goes well, the child will be taken away."

"Did she say who it was?"

"It was introduced by a fellow villager of hers. She said that in the countryside, the couple have no children, and they want girls too."

"What's your name, where do you live, and what's your phone number?"

Yuan Shuhai shook his head, then raised his head: "It was my wife who contacted that person. I don't know, and I didn't ask. But she should have a text message record with that fellow in her mobile phone, and she should be able to find out about that person." Telephone."

Hearing this, Cheng Jinsong handed the deceased's mobile phone to Shen Yan, and Shen Yan took it and checked it. There was no conversation record of similar content in the SMS or WeChat.So he opened the phone call record, handed the phone to Yuan Shuhai, and asked, "Who is it?"

Yuan Shuhai glanced at it, pointed to the last call record and said, "This is the person"

Wang Yuxiang... Shen Yan silently read the name, then looked at the call time, it was 13:03 in the afternoon.The timing fits well too.

At this moment, Cheng Haiyang came in from the outside, walked up to Shen Yan and whispered: "Boss, I found something."

Shen Yan nodded slightly. He looked at Yuan Shuhai and said, "Yuan Shuhai, you are suspected of participating in a baby theft case. Our police will now detain you according to law."

Qin Kai walked over, pulled him up from the ground, and led him outside. Yuan Shuhai took two steps, then suddenly turned his head and begged: "Comrade police, please help me find the person who killed my wife!  … ..."

"We will."

Yuan Shuhai nodded with tears in his eyes.

Qin Kai and Jiang Li escorted Yuan Shuhai and Gong Peng back into the police car, only then did Shen Yan ask Cheng Haiyang, "What did you find?"

"Someone said that at noon, he saw a person sneaking away from here, and the time coincided with the time when the victim was killed." Cheng Haiyang said, pointing to a middle-aged woman in her 50s or [-]s standing beside her. , "I brought people here."

Shen Yan nodded, and walked towards that person with Cheng Haiyang.

"Sister, this is our captain," Cheng Haiyang said to the woman, "tell our captain what you saw just now, okay?"

The woman was still somewhat nervous, she glanced at Cheng Haiyang, and after receiving the encouraging gaze from the latter, she said, "At noon today, I saw a man come out of the old Yuan's shop, and then In a panic, I got on an electric donkey and ran away."

"Electric donkey?..." Shen Yan asked, "You mean an electric bicycle?"

"Ah, yes, an electric car." The woman corrected herself.

"How tall is that man? What does he look like?"

"I don't know how tall it is. Anyway, he is of normal height. He is wearing all black, a black hat, and a big black bag on his back. If he is not covered in black, I might not pay attention to him." .”

"Bag?" Shen Yan asked, "How big is the bag?"

"It's just this big," the woman said, measuring with her hands, "so long and so wide."

50 centimeters long and 30 centimeters wide - Shen Yan calculated in his heart while watching, this size is enough to hold a newborn baby.Thinking of this, he continued to ask: "Sister, if you think about it carefully, can you still remember anything about that man? Any physical appearance or movement characteristics are fine."

"I really don't remember," the woman shook her head with a bitter face. I just glanced at it when I was shooting flies by the window, so I really didn't look carefully. "

"Sister, think about it carefully," Cheng Haiyang guided patiently, "For example, what patterns are there on his clothes and pants, are there any accessories on his body..."

"Ah!" The woman suddenly yelled: "I remembered, there is a black patch on his neck and arms!"

"Black? Is it a mole?" Shen Yan asked.

"No, it's the kind that bums often draw on their bodies..." the woman hurriedly explained.

Shen Yan suddenly understood: "You mean tattoos?!"

"That's right! Tattoos! Just tattoos!"

"What kind of tattoo?"

"Then I can't see clearly, but the one on his arm is long, like a long worm. I remember that the tail goes all the way to his arm." The woman said, pointing to her elbow.

Shen Yan nodded and continued to ask: "Which arm is his tattoo on the other side of his neck?"

"The one on the left!" the woman replied with certainty, "He got in the car and went east, it must be the left arm!"

"Where did you say that person went?" Shen Yan pointed to the way.

"Yes." The woman nodded.

Shen Yan frowned slightly—to the east is the direction to enter the urban area. Could it be that the murderer didn't leave the city, but returned to the city? ...

For the time being, he suppressed his doubts and looked at the woman again: "Sister, let me ask you one last question: When did you see that man?"

"1:45!" The woman said with certainty: "The TV series I watched ended at 1:45, and I started to kill flies only after it played the ending song."

"Okay, thank you for your cooperation. You tell this police officer Cheng your contact information, and we may contact you again if necessary."

"it is good."

Cheng Haiyang took the woman away, and Cheng Jinsong and Jiang Ruiheng walked over.

"What did that person say?" Jiang Ruiheng asked.

"I saw a suspicious person, but he didn't go out, but might have entered the city."

"Going into the city?" Jiang Ruiheng was surprised, "Dare you take it to the city at this time?!"

Shen Yan didn't answer. He looked at the road in front of him and frowned deeply.
