"Mr. Qi, the results of the DNA comparison have come out, and it is confirmed that it is Xu Lixing."

Gao Ren's voice instantly awakened Qi Ming who was sleepy in front of the computer.Since the bed was repaired, Luo Jianan has kept up with clockwork these days, tossing at night and waking up early, causing him to sleep for three or four hours a day for several days, and the dark circles under his eyes are worse than staying up late for an autopsy.After reading the comparison results in the system, Qi Ming called Luo Jianan to inform him that the identity of the deceased had been determined.

Luo Jianan immediately arranged for people in the team to trace Xu Lixing's whereabouts after returning to China, and found the hotel where he was staying.However, the surveillance from half a year ago was gone, but the passenger information was still there, and it was found that Xu Lixing checked out the room on the morning of February [-]th.His flight ticket back to Japan was on the afternoon of February [-]th, that is to say, he should have gone straight to the airport after he got out of the hotel.It's just that he couldn't get on that plane after all, but stepped into the Hall of Yama.

The resettlement housing user information obtained from the real estate company has also been checked, and the residents are not suspected of committing crimes. Now the only suspect that can be identified is Xu Lining.However, following the investigation, two doubts emerged: First, Xu Lining was injured on the night of February [-]. According to the hospital's diagnosis and treatment records, he had [-] stitches on his head. Second, although Zhou Shihan identified the white car parked outside the resettlement house as exactly the same Tesla as Xu Lixing's, she was not sure that the person driving the car was Xu Lixing, and she I can't remember exactly what day I saw it.

What's more, the motive of the crime was not clear. On the surface, Xu Lining didn't need to kill his cousin.He got what he deserved, a flat worth hundreds of thousands, he should thank Xu Lixing.But Tesla appeared on the airport expressway on the day Xu Lixing returned to Japan, or died. Luo Jianan was sure that this was not a coincidence.

Anyway, bring Xu Lining back first and interrogate him as a suspect.

When Xu Lining entered the interrogation room, he looked angrily, he refused to sit down, and even yelled at Luo Jianan: "Why arrest me?"

"Based on this," Luo Jianan waved the copy of the confession provided by Director Cai in front of his eyes, "The gangsters you hired to stop the migrant workers from asking for wages have all been recruited, and now I can arrest you for picking quarrels and provoking trouble. "

However, Xu Lining, an old bird, could not be restrained by a few pieces of paper.He twitched the corners of his mouth and sneered extremely disdainfully: "Officer Luo, I only let them settle disputes, and didn't let them beat people."

"You can save this and tell the judge, go, sit there quickly."

Raising his hand and pointing at the chair, Luo Jianan knocked on the one-way glass with his backhand.Not half a minute later, Ou Jian came in with a pair of men's leather shoes in the evidence bag, handed them to Luo Jianan, and then sat behind the interrogation table.Following the interrogator for the first time, he seemed more nervous than Xu Lining.

"Is this your shoe?" Luo Jianan put the shoe on the board of the interrogation chair, looked up at Xu Lining who still refused to sit down, "I lost such an expensive shoe, and I don't even want to look for it?"

"..." Xu Lining was bewildered, picked up the shoe and looked it over several times, "No, my shoe...why came to the Public Security Bureau?"

Arms folded across his chest, Luo Jianan moved his buttocks and leaned against the edge of the interrogation table, and smiled at him: "Thanks to your pair of shoes, the police managed to confirm the identity of the deceased."

"The deceased?" Xu Lining was taken aback again, "Who is it?"

"Which of your relatives hasn't shown up for a long time, don't you know?"

"...Our relatives are all living well..."

"Oh, let's see if you know this."

Luo Jianan turned back and picked up a photo and threw it in front of Xu Lining.Xu Lining took a closer look, and in the photo was an abnormally swollen corpse, with blue-black blood vessels all over the body, protruding eyeballs and turned lips, swollen to the point that they could break if touched.His legs went limp at that time, and he "gudong" sat on the interrogation chair.

"Deputy Luo, I took the wrong one, this one is..." Ou Jian reminded Luo Jianan nervously.

"Ah? Oh, look at my brain." Putting down the photo of the floating corpse, Luo Jianan picked up the photo of Xu Lixing's rotten skeleton, but he didn't directly confront Xu Lining like before.He did it on purpose, showing a photo of a corpse with a giant view. The visual impact is much greater than that of a skeleton, which can break down Xu Lining's psychological defense to a certain extent.

Xu Lining's face turned blue, and all the energy he had put on when he first entered the room was gone, and he kept stalking his neck.If you look at it like that and give it some stimulation, you can spit it out at any time.

To achieve the desired effect, Luo Jianan is not going to go around in circles with him anymore. Generally speaking, he is so disgusted that he has no brains to make up nonsense.He shook the skeleton photo at a distance of a few steps, and said seriously: "This is your cousin Xu Lixing. The police found his remains in the resettlement room. According to his whereabouts during his lifetime, it is estimated that he died in [-] Xu Lining, where were you and what did you do that day?"

Eyes straightened, Xu Lining was stunned for a long time, then he said, "It was half a year ago...I... how can I remember?"

Luo Jianan reminded him: "You were injured on the head in the abandoned glass factory on February [-]th. Can you remember what happened the next day?"

At this time, Xu Lining only had one thought in his mind - did the police put a tracker on me?How can they know when I get hurt?

However, after being reminded by Luo Jianan, he remembered: "I must have rested at home that day."

"Who can prove it?"

"My wife, oh, no, she traveled to Europe for a few days—" Xu Lining said, his face turned from green to white, and he explained eagerly: "I didn't kill anyone! Officer Luo! Don't you check it out! On the [-]th, I was kicked out by the bastard who robbed the sand and gravel business! I had dozens of stitches, and I couldn’t get up because of the pain. Where am I going—where am I going to kill people!”

Luo Jianan pretended to be puzzled: "You were injured, why didn't you call the police?"

"I - I -" Xu Lining was speechless.

In fact, it doesn't need to be said by him, Luo Jianan also knows the cause and effect here.For an owner like Xu Lining who contracts sand and gravel business on construction sites, competitors are indispensable.This group of people are more or less gangsters, or they simply raised a few thugs themselves.Once a dispute arises, it is normal to hurt each other.As long as no one is killed and disabled, they have a tacit understanding not to bite each other.I think Xu Lining had placed an order on the [-]th day, and was followed by someone, dragged to a place like a glass factory where no shit was done, and cleaned up.

Luo Jianan is not interested in this kind of dog-eat-dog shit. He only cares about one question: "You said you were resting at home on the [-]th. What about the car? It's also parked downstairs?"

Xu Lining frowned and thought hard, then suddenly said: "No, I asked Xiao Zheng to drive back to the company. A client will arrive on the [-]th, and I need to use my car to pick him up at the airport."

"Xiao Zheng?" Luo Jianan immediately saw the tall, thin, restrained and cautious young man he met a few days ago, "Is he the one who picked him up at the airport?"

"...not necessarily, it may be Lao Gao or Lao Chen...they are both company executives..."

"Write down all the names, and the one surnamed Zheng."

Luo Jianan turned back and copied a piece of paper from the table, and snapped it in front of Xu Lining's eyes.

After investigation, the customer mentioned by Xu Lining arrived on the [-]th due to a flight delay, so it is temporarily unclear who the driver who drove the Tesla to the airport expressway on the [-]th was.The car has not passed the toll booth, otherwise you can take a photo of the driver's face.

The only people in the company who can move that car are Zheng, Gao, and Chen.So Luo Jianan began to investigate the whereabouts of the three people on February [-]th, but all three said they did not remember.That's right, it happened half a year ago, except for the murderer, who would remember what he was doing that day, and the real murderer couldn't just say "I killed someone and threw away the body that day".

Moreover, on the surface, these three people did not have any intersection with Xu Lixing.This made Luo Jianan fall into self-doubt of following the wrong clue.I have been working in criminal investigation for several years, and it is the first time I am leading an investigation case. If I go around a lot and still get no results, how can I have the face to stay with the bureau in the future?But if he gave up because of this difficulty, then he would not be Luo Jianan.Check, keep checking, check the family background of those three, and dig as deep as you can.

At two o'clock in the morning, the phone rang suddenly, Luo Jianan woke up suddenly, and accidentally knocked down a stack of documents piled up at hand.

"Huh?" Turning on the speakerphone to answer the call, he yawned and bent over to pick up the scattered papers.

"Aren't you coming back to sleep again?" Qi Ming's confused voice came out of the receiver.Waking up from the nightmare, he opened his eyes and found that there was half an empty bed next to him, and touched the phone to call Luo Jianan.

"Ah, I need to use the bureau's system to check the information." In the dead of night, Luo Jianan's voice echoed in the empty office, "I'll go back to pick you up in the morning."

"No, I can take a taxi myself." There was a pause, and then there was a lazy voice: "I can't sleep well without you by my side."

--Um?

This coquettish behavior made Luo Jianan feel his pants tightening.
