I am a super cop

Chapter 539 Conspiracy
Although the villa buildings of the entire Binjiang Villa Garden have a unified plan, the No. 18 villa of Zou Xianlong's family is still more unique than the surrounding buildings.

The most typical feature is large.

For the top rich circle, everyone is keen on the so-called personality.

Although the developers built the rough villas, some rich people directly choose to change the rough villas into the ones they like.

Even more exaggerated residents, after buying the villa, directly leveled it, and then built the look they like on the original basis.

This is why, originally it was a unified Mediterranean architectural style, but the buildings inside turned out to have their own characteristics.

Various swimming pools, various elevators, and some residents even installed glass slides directly on the third floor so that their children can go downstairs quickly.

The various personalities of the top wealthy circle can be said to be vividly reflected in the garden of Binjiang Villas.

As far as the developer is concerned, they can only turn a blind eye and close one eye, and try their best to meet the various individual requirements of the residents.

Everyone gathered in the Garden of Binjiang Villa, mainly focusing on the environment here. It is backed by famous schools and close to the wetland park. It can be called a natural oxygen bar.

Villa No. 18 of Zou Xianlong's family can be said to be unique.

Gu Chen did not go to other places to search, but placed the key investigation objects in the bedrooms of Zou Xianlong and Zhang Hailan.

As soon as he entered the door, Gu Chen could smell a faint fragrance.

The whole room was not as messy as Zhang Hailan said.

On the contrary, it is still very neat.

All kinds of high-end furniture and cloakrooms are available.

From the first floor to the second floor, you can take the elevator.

Every piece of furniture is extremely luxurious.

"Junior Brother Gu." Lu Weiwei said a little dizzily, "Look at this room, is there such an exaggeration? This is more luxurious than the presidential suite. The world of the rich is really beyond our imagination."

"Rich people are almost the same." Gu Chen didn't think it was an exaggeration.

For Zou Xianlong's family property, it is understandable to decorate the villa luxuriously.

Gu Chen already knew that the owner of the first Ferrari in Beijing, a high-end residence, spent [-] million on decoration alone.

This is obviously unimaginable in the eyes of ordinary people.

"Everyone spread out and search to see if we can find any clues in the room." Gu Chen said.

Officer Wang said with a smile: "Then I'll go to the cloakroom, Lu Weiwei, you go to the toilet and look, Gu Chen, you can look in the bedroom."

"Yes." Gu Chen readily agreed.

Lu Weiwei complained a little, and asked, "Why am I a toilet?"

"Because I'm afraid you will be jealous when you see his clothes." Officer Wang glanced at Lu Weiwei and explained, "You can even be stunned by the decoration of his bedroom. You look like you have never seen the world."

"Hehe." Lu Weiwei looked at Comrade Wang with a bitter face, and couldn't help loosening her knuckles, making them creak on purpose.

Gu Chen smiled: "Why not, I'll check the toilet."

"Forget it, no need." Lu Weiwei glanced at Police Officer Wang, put on her white gloves and walked straight to the toilet.

Officer Wang was not idle either, and ran directly to the cloakroom.

Gu Chen didn't check casually, but first locked his eyes on the trash can in the bedroom.

For investigators, the items in the trash can are very knowledgeable, and many unexpected items can usually be found in the trash can.

People like to clean up the things they have used, such as cleaning up junk files in the computer, but they can find things that were deleted in the trash.

By the same token, the trash can is the key to the police investigation clues.

In Gu Chen's childhood cognition, Zhang Jingde often told himself that the trash can may seem inconspicuous, but there are many reasoning philosophies inside.

For example, by investigating the trash cans of a school class, you can infer the wealth of the class.

"What is this?" Gu Chen found a small medicine in the trash can beside the bed, held it in his hand and inspected it, all of which were marked in English.

"Imported medicine?" Gu Chen frowned, and began to translate the content sentence by sentence according to the prompts of the English letters.

It probably means that this is a special sleeping pill produced by a foreign pharmaceutical company.

Gu Chen unscrewed the bottle cap, and there were still a dozen small pills inside, so he poured it into his palm.

According to the English description on the drug, the production date of the drug was just two months ago, and the expiration date is also one year later.

But how could such a bottle of high-end imported special-effect sleeping pills be thrown into the trash before it was used up?
Gu Chen couldn't help frowning, feeling something strange here.

Later, Gu Chen searched other places in the bedroom, and found that the quilt on the bed had been turned over, and there was a glass with only half a glass of water on the bedside table.

Gu Chen gently took the glass in his hand, and found that the fingerprints on the glass were obvious.

So Gu Chen took out the evidence collection bag that he carried with him, put the residual water in the glass and the glass into different evidence collection bags for numbering and taking pictures.

After some operations, Lu Weiwei also came out of the toilet.

Police officer Wang also came out of his coat and hat after visiting various underwear shows.

Seeing that Gu Chen had finished collecting evidence, Police Officer Wang asked, "Gu Chen, do you have any new discoveries?"

"There are some, but they still need to be sent to the technical department for inspection." Gu Chen put the water and glasses in the evidence collection bag on the bedside table respectively.

Then the discarded small white medicine bottle was repacked into another evidence collection bag.

"What is this?" Lu Weiwei walked in and asked curiously.

"Sleeping pills are still imported." Gu Chen said.

Looking at the various items in Gu Chen's evidence collection bag, Lu Weiwei couldn't help thinking about it, and then asked again: "Could it be... Zou Xianlong took sleeping pills before?"

"It's possible, but I'm not sure." Gu Chen didn't answer in the affirmative, but left room for it.

Because the information given by the Zou family was that Zou Xianlong drank baijiu at noon, and the portion was quite large.

It stands to reason that it is easy to cause drowsiness after drinking, so there should be no need to take sleeping pills.

But the sleeping pills that Gu Chen found in the bedroom, as well as the half glass of water, seem to make people feel, isn't it justified?
Officer Wang thought thoughtfully, "Could this be the sleeping pill that Zou Xianlong took yesterday?"

"That's right." Lu Weiwei looked at Gu Chen and agreed with Comrade Wang: "Junior Brother Gu, if it's yesterday's sleeping pill, then it's all over."

"But why did you throw it away?" Gu Chen held the sleeping pills in the transparent evidence collection bag in his hand, and said, "I checked, and there were not many pellets of this imported sleeping pill, and there were only thirty pills in a bottle. "

"But there are still fifteen sleeping pills left here. For the expensive imported special sleeping pills, one is basically effective."

"In the white vial, half of the amount has already been taken, which just shows that this sleeping pill is effective, so why throw it away?"

Gu Chen's question made Police Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei look at each other, unable to explain why for a long time.

"So... what does Junior Brother Gu mean?" Lu Weiwei asked.

"I think Zou Xianlong took sleeping pills today, which caused him to fall asleep, and the heart paralysis that was checked before may have another reason."

After walking back and forth in the bedroom for a few times, Gu Chen said again: "Based on what I know, taking a bath in a bathroom with hot water after drinking alcohol seems to be very unlikely to cause paralysis due to dirty."

"Ah?" After listening to Gu Chen's speech, Lu Weiwei couldn't help being stunned: "But...but you didn't say that when you were in the bathroom just now, you told Zou Shihao that his father, Zou Xianlong, was indeed eligible for heart paralysis. and all the hallmarks of death."

"That's right, I've heard you say it too." Officer Wang also hurriedly said.

Gu Chen nodded, and said involuntarily: "That's right, I said it, and I'm not wrong, Zou Xianlong did die of a heart attack."

"But there is one thing I didn't mention much at the time, that is, Zou Xianlong took a bath after drinking alcohol. How could a person who takes a hot bath cause a heart attack?"

"If it was difficult for me to judge before, then think about what information Zou Shihao gave us at that time?"

"It's... what is it?" Lu Weiwei didn't know what to do.

"He said that his father, Zou Xianlong, was traumatized because he saw his mother die of illness."

"That's why he decided to start retiring, hand over the company's business to his two sons, and marry a beautiful wife to live a retired life."

"Furthermore, Zou Xianlong pays great attention to health preservation. Liao Ze, the personal doctor, was only invited to the Zou family during that time. It can be seen that this is a person who knows how to take care of his body."

"Once there is a problem in the bath, he will definitely not die peacefully like that. His expression should be pained."

"Wait a minute." After being reminded by Gu Chen, Police Officer Wang suddenly froze for a moment.

He began to try to recall everything that happened in the bathroom just now, and then he suddenly realized: "Yes, when the old man died in the bathtub, his expression was indeed peaceful, as if he was asleep, and he didn't show too much. struggle."

"Could it be possible to fall asleep after taking a bath in the bathtub?"

"One more thing." Gu Chen immediately interrupted Police Officer Wang and said, "Have you noticed the slippers next to the bathtub?"

"Slippers?" Lu Weiwei seemed to be a little impressed, and hurriedly said, "There are a pair of slippers. Didn't Zou Xianlong go there wearing slippers?"

"No, you didn't pay attention to the orientation of the slippers." Gu Chen said again.

"The direction?" Lu Weiwei and Police Officer Wang were taken aback at the same time, looking at each other in disbelief.

"Junior Brother Gu, don't be fooled, do you see any flaws? Tell us about it?" Lu Weiwei didn't want to use her brain, especially since she didn't pay attention.

It was just an inspection by the deceased Zou Xianlong. As for the slippers on the ground, Lu Weiwei paid attention to them, but she didn't pay attention, so she didn't know the so-called orientation of the slippers in Gu Chen's mouth.

Gu Chen didn't hesitate, pointing directly at the big bed and said, "I'm using the bed as a bathtub now, take a look at where the slippers are placed now."

Afterwards, Gu Chen directly turned his back to the big bed and faced the two of them.

"That's it... that's it?" Lu Weiwei said in amazement.

Gu Chen nodded: "The slippers next to the bathtub are placed like this."

"But isn't this normal?" Lu Weiwei frowned slightly, and said weakly: "For the convenience of wearing shoes, the old man put the slippers upside down, so that he can put on the slippers as long as he is together, and saves the trouble of turning around , I usually go into my bedroom to change shoes, and I do the same."

"No, it's definitely not right." Officer Wang on the side directly denied Lu Weiwei's remarks.

Lu Weiwei frowned: "Why is it wrong?"

"That's not what Gu Chen meant." Police Officer Wang also walked to the place next to Gu Chen, and then said: "Lu Weiwei, haven't you thought about it? According to the principle of putting slippers upside down, there is nothing wrong in itself."

"The mistake is that the slippers are placed too neatly, making it inconvenient to step into the bathtub."

"Yes!" Gu Chen saw that Police Officer Wang explained the mystery, so he said again: "If Senior Sister Lu doesn't believe it, then you can try it and see if the slippers are still upside down when you step into the bathtub facing the bathtub?"

"Is that so? That's fine." Lu Weiwei frowned slightly, and directly used a soft chair in the bedroom as a bathtub, then took off her shoes, and prepared to simulate stepping into the bathtub.

But when Lu Weiwei was vertical on the soft chair, she found that her posture was quite awkward.

Because the bathtub is sunken, people need to step into the bathtub at an angle of 45 degrees, and the orientation of the shoes in this matter, although the bathtub is inverted, is by no means a vertical angle, but 45 degrees.

"I understand." Lu Weiwei, who had completed the simulation operation, suddenly realized: "Junior Brother Gu means that if Zou Xianlong stepped into the bathtub by himself, he must have stepped in diagonally at a 45-degree angle."

"So the slippers at that time could never be placed upside down in the vertical bathtub, which shows that the slippers were deliberately placed like this."

Gu Chen snapped his fingers, and then congratulated: "Senior Sister Lu, you finally understand, then I would like to ask you again, from the position of this pair of slippers, and the sleeping pills and water in the bedroom, can you help me?" Do you think of something?"

"This..." Lu Weiwei didn't answer immediately, but hesitated for a moment, and then said thoughtfully: "It means that Zou Xianlong probably passed out after taking sleeping pills."

"As for him lying in the bathtub, he was completely moved there. The slippers were deliberately placed later to make everyone think that Zou Xianlong stepped into the bathtub by himself, right?"

"Yes, that's it." Gu Chen was overjoyed, feeling that Lu Weiwei finally got her own train of thought.

Police Officer Wang was also surprised: "I said Gu Chen, even such a small clue was discovered by you, so why didn't you tell me when you were in the bathroom just now?"

"Because I have no clues to contact, if I don't find the sleeping pills discarded in the bedroom, maybe I won't be able to judge the previous speculation."

"Although the placement of the slippers is suspicious, it doesn't explain anything, but if more clues are connected, it will make a big difference."

Although Gu Chen had many concerns about the situation at the scene and considered several possibilities, due to the limited clues at that time, Gu Chen only tried to get as many clues as possible from the dictation of members of the Zou family.

Now it seems that Gu Chen still has two other doubts that have not been solved, that is, how did Zou Xianlong die?

Also, if Zou Xianlong had taken sleeping pills to cause his drowsiness, then who moved him to the bathroom?

Zhang Hailan?

Although she has a good figure, she is too thin. It really takes a lot of strength to move a man of Zou Xianlong's stature.

But if it wasn't Zhang Hailan, who would it be?Could it be that Zhang Hailan has an accomplice?

"Junior Brother Gu." Seeing that Gu Chen was still thinking with his chin resting, Lu Weiwei asked him weakly: "What are you thinking? Are you thinking, who moved Zou Xianlong into the bathroom?"

"That's right." Gu Chen nodded.

Officer Wang laughed directly and said, "Does this need to be said? The flaw can be seen from Zhang Hailan's dictation."

"If the previous inferences are as you Gu Chen expected, Zou Xianlong was moved into the bathtub after taking sleeping pills, and even the slippers were deliberately placed, then this person is undoubtedly Zhang Hailan, Zhang Hailan is lying."

"Senior Brother Wang, what you said is correct." Gu Chen walked back and forth in front of the two of them twice before facing out the window and saying:

"Zhang Hailan did say that her husband Zou Xianlong decided to go to the bathroom to take a bath after drinking baijiu and taking a short walk with her outside. This is obviously a lie."

"From this point of view, Zhang Hailan is the most suspicious, but have you ever thought about it? With Zhang Xianlong's body, Zhang Hailan's thin arms and legs, can she move Zou Xianlong into the bathtub independently?"

"You mean... more than one murderer killed Zou Xianlong? She, Zhang Hailan, has an accomplice?" Lu Weiwei stared, feeling terrified.

"Yes!" Gu Chen nodded without hesitation, and said, "She Zhang Hailan must have an accomplice, but who could he be? Is it Zou Shihao or Zou Kaiwen? Or someone else?"

"What if it's any one of them, and then they deliberately lied when they gave their testimony? This will mislead our judgment."

Police officer Wang felt that what Gu Chen said was reasonable, and he followed his train of thought to analyze it: "Gu Chen, I think Zou Shihao is unlikely. If it was him, he would definitely not insist on letting the police intervene in the investigation."

"If it was him, wouldn't he just find trouble and dig a hole to bury himself?"

"That's right, Zou Shihao's suspicion is the least, it can be basically ruled out, and he and Zhang Hailan are incompatible, and there are many conflicts between the two, it is impossible to unite together." Gu Chen said.

"Could it be Zou Shiwen? He seems to be hiding everything, and he was the first to feel the scene after receiving a call from his little stepmother Zhang Hailan." Lu Weiwei had long said to Zou Shiwen, who was protecting Zhang Hailan Some doubts.

Because judging from the dispute just now, it seems that Zou Shiwen is on the side of the little stepmother Zhang Hailan.

He is also relatively opposed to police intervention, as if he doesn't believe that his father was murdered.

Therefore, according to the law of association, Lu Weiwei first put the object of suspicion on Zou Shiwen, because he seemed to be on the opposite side of his younger brother Zou Shihao.
