Serious Crime Unit 1

Chapter 322 The Ultimate Game (7)
When they arrived at Xiao Baimu's house, it was exactly three o'clock in the afternoon. Because of the hot weather, Xiao Baimu was lying on a bamboo chair under the shade of a tree, swinging a cattail leaf fan to cool off. When he saw them coming, he quickly sat up from the chair. Go and move stools for them to sit on, and then go and pour water for them.

The two of them took the simple glass. Wu Jiang took a sip of water and began to ask: "Brother Xiao, we are here because of Xiao Ke. We hope you will cooperate with our work." Wu Jiang said.

"You go away, I don't have such a traitor!" he said angrily.

"Xiao Ke is young and ignorant, and he is being used to do bad things..."

"What does it mean to do bad things? It's murder, and you'll be beheaded! Is there any crime in the world more serious than murder?"

"Let's not talk about this for now. I know that you are an upright and kind-hearted person who hates evil. In this case, you should cooperate with our investigation, otherwise the person who was killed will die with his eyes open."

"Okay, whatever you want to ask, as long as I know, I'll tell you." He calmed down a little.

"Did Xiao Ke remit money to you? Or give you cash?" Wu Jiang saw two chickens fighting for an earthworm next to him, as if it was a prelude to heavy rain.

"No, even if he gives me money, even if he gives me a gold mountain, I won't take it!"

The last time Wu Jiang and Zhou Ting came to visit Xiao Baimu, they went to the bank to investigate his fund transactions. The results were normal, with no large amounts of funds being remitted in or out.

"Has Xiao Ke asked someone to deliver a letter to you?"

Xiao Baimu thought for a while and said: "Not long after he committed the crime, his cousin came back from the provincial capital and said that he asked his cousin to bring me a letter. I didn't want to read it, so I asked him to take it back and give it to the traitor himself. He told me not to bother me again, otherwise I would be angry, so he had to take the letter back."

"Where does Xiao Ke's cousin live? What's his name? Is he an aunt or an aunt?" Wu Jiang felt that what Xiao Ke's cousin brought was probably not a letter but a bankbook, because Xiao Baimu had a mobile phone and Xiao Ke had Xiao Baimu. If you have a phone number, you can call me if you have any questions, so why do you have to send a letter?
"His name is Wang Dahai. He lives in Hongxing Village next door. He is my sister's child." Xiao Baimu looked sad.

"Can you please take us to him?"

"Can't find it, he... alas, he drowned while bathing in Hongxing Creek." He sighed deeply. When they heard this, they were very shocked: Will Wang Dahai be murdered for helping Xiao Ke deliver the message? ?

"When did Wang Dahai die?"

"May 5th. He is a good boy. He has been obedient since he was a child, and he is also very filial to me. My sister and brother-in-law are hardworking and thrifty, and the family is rich. It is a pity that he does not have the blessing to enjoy it. Alas--" Xiao Baimu had a look in his eyes. With tears.

"Why did he drown? Couldn't he swim?"

"Water is not good. The forensic doctor from the Public Security Bureau said he was drunk and went to take a bath in the stream and drowned."

Wu Jiang felt that he should go to the Honghe Town Police Station to learn about the situation. Wang Dahai might have been murdered.

When Wu Jiang and Xiao Ke arrived at the Honghe Town Police Station, a young policeman saw them and said in surprise: "Two detectives, where did the wind bring you here? Welcome!" He shook hands with them warmly.

"Do we know each other?" Wu Jiang had never been to Honghe Police Station and didn't know anyone in the station.

"You don't know me, but I know you. You are the heroes in my heart. I dream every day to become a detective like you."

"You haven't answered my question clearly yet." Wu Jiang said with a smile.

"Your photos have been posted on the intranet for many years. Ever since I entered the police academy, I have often browsed the city bureau's official Weibo and intranet. Your heroic figures will always be engraved in my heart." He said as he led them to the In the reception room, he made two cups of tea and said, "There must be something important for you to come to our small office. I am not of a high level to receive you. I will call Director Xie. Please be patient and wait for a while."

After a while, Director Xie came. Director Xie was in his late fifties, with a medium build, a slight bald head, and bright eyes. He scolded: "You didn't even make a call first so that we could prepare...Xiao Yan, Go buy some fruit cigarettes." He shouted to the young policeman.

"Director Xie, don't bother, we have a major case that needs your help."

"Definitely, definitely. It's such a hot day. Eat some fruit to relieve the heat. Then talk about the case slowly. Slow down and take a rest. This is to walk a longer distance. Don't you think so?" Director Xie said while using the remote control. Turn on the air conditioner to cool down, but the weather is actually not very hot.

"Director Xie, did you hear that Wang Dahai drowned in Hongxing Creek?" Wu Jiang asked.

"Yes, after we received the call from the 110 command center, we rushed to the scene of the accident. As a result, Wang Dahai had been fished out by the villagers and placed on the river beach. After examination, it was found that he had been dead for a long time. Alas, poor child, he was just He was 19 years old and had been in high school for less than a year. The child's parents both cried and fainted, and we sent them to the hospital for rescue. Fortunately, they were fine," Director Xie said sadly.

"Who called the police?" "An old man named Chen Shengyou was digging land to grow vegetables by the Hongxing River. When he stopped to smoke, he saw Wang Dahai's clothes thrown on the river beach, but he disappeared. He He felt strange because he had just seen Wang Dahai swimming back and forth in the stream. How could he not see anyone for just a moment? He thought maybe Wang Dahai had dived into the water and didn't care. After he finished sucking one, After the smoke, Wang Dahai was still not seen, so he went to the stream to check, and found that Wang Dahai was half floating in the water, with his limbs motionless. He called his name loudly, but Wang Dahai didn't answer. He couldn't swim, so Call 110, and then call people nearby to come and help rescue the person. Many villagers came and jumped into the water and pulled up the vast sea, but there was no heartbeat or breathing."

"How old is Mr. Chen?"

"63 years old, born in 1953."

"Was there only the ocean when you swam in the stream?"

"Yes, May 5th is early summer, and the weather is not hot. Who would jump into the stream to take a bath? His parents said that he drank half a catty of liquor and felt very hot, so he jumped into the stream to take a bath alone. Chen Shengyou also testified that the stream There is only the vast ocean."

"Has an autopsy been performed on Wang Dahai?"

"No, Wang Dahai's parents did not agree to the autopsy. The forensic doctor from the county bureau's criminal police team rushed to the scene. The forensic doctor said that Wang Dahai's fists were clenched, his nails were blue, there was foam near his mouth and nose, there was sand in his nose, and his chest and abdominal cavity were swollen. , is a typical sign of drowning.”

"Can't Wang Dahai know how to swim? How could he drown?"

"The water quality is not very good. The forensic doctor believes that the water temperature at the bottom of the stream is too low, and Wang Dahai's body temperature is too high. Under the influence of alcohol, his hands and feet cramped, causing him to drown. However, because there is no autopsy, scientific judgment cannot be made .”

"Are there any external injuries on Wang Dahai's body?"

"No, it's very clean. The medical examiner said the possibility of homicide can be ruled out."

Wu Jiang was worried and asked Director Xie to take them to the place where Wang Dahai drowned.So they came to the site of Hongxing Creek. The locals called this place Danguo Bay. Hongxing Creek is not wide, about 20 meters. The water is relatively turbid. Danguo Bay is about 10 meters wide. On the left is a 10-meter river beach, which is full of pebbles. There are no shrubs or reeds to hide people. On the right is a stream. The stream flows slowly along the roots of the embankment. The water is about two meters deep. It stands to reason that people will not drown in such a small pool.

But how did Wang Dahai die?It would have been nice if there had been an autopsy. Unfortunately, Wang Dahai's parents had his body cremated and there were no clues to investigate. They felt sorry.Wu Jiang felt that Wang Dahai might have been murdered, but no one could see it.

If Wang Dahai committed suicide, it was most likely because Xiao Ke asked him to hand over the letter to Xiao Baimu. This is in line with the murder style of the mastermind behind the scenes: leaving no trace!

Wu Jiang called Zhou Ting and Lu Yingying and asked them to go to the bank to check whether Wang Dahai had opened an account in the provincial capital?He waited for a reply at the Honghe Police Station.They agreed to check immediately.

In the evening, Lu Yingying called Xiao Ke and said: Wang Dahai deposited 10 yuan in Bank of China.After hearing this, Xiao Ke forwarded the message to Wu Jiang, who said: "It's true, Wang Dahai must have been killed because of the money."

"But it's almost impossible to find the murderer." Xiao Ke said.

"It's not impossible, it's just that we don't have time to check for the time being. We can't forget why we came. We should go to Wang Dahai's house. If we are lucky, we may find the bankbook." Wu Jiang said.

"Will the bankbook be taken away by the killer?" Xiao Ke said worriedly.

"Probably not. If the bankbook was taken away by the killer, Wang Dahai would not be killed. The murderer should have contacted Wang Dahai and tried various ways to defraud him of the bankbook. He might have threatened to kill him, but he didn't "Listen, so we were eliminated by the murderer. The murderer predicted that we would definitely come to find Wang Dahai, so he took precautions before it happened. This mastermind is too thoughtful and is an extremely difficult murderer to deal with." Wu Jiang said worriedly.

Wu Jiang asked Director Xie to lead the way and came to Wang Dahai's home. Wang Dahai's father was named Wang Hongfei. He was an honest farmer. He was over forty years old. Perhaps because of the loss of his son in middle age, his hair was half gray. He saw Director Xie Bring people here, come out quickly to greet them, ask them to sit down, and then go make tea and get cigarettes.

Wang Hongfei lives in a new three-story building with all furniture and electrical appliances. The living room is clean and tidy, not like a farmhouse.There was a semi-new pickup truck parked in the yard.

Director Xie told him not to be busy because two police officers from the provincial capital wanted to ask him questions. Wang Hongfei sat down obediently and looked at Wujiang sadly.

"I'm sorry, I want to ask you about Wang Dahai. This may remind you of sad past events, but this is our job, so please forgive me." Wu Jiang said.

"It's okay, it's okay, just ask." He nodded.

"Did Wang Dahai give you a letter for you to keep?"

"No, no one is writing letters now?"

"Has he gone out to find a job this year?"
