Chapter 672 Corpses floating on the sea (13)
顾世同于10月13日04：35从188县道把车驶入往严明乡的24A乡道，于08：05往回驶时又从严明乡政府门口经过，因为当时天已经大亮，监控器拍下了他清晰的面容，车上只有他一个人。

Jiang Yiming asked Lu Yingying to continue checking the video. It would be best to see which way he came from. After discovering which way he came from, then check back.Lu Yingying said that she had seen it. Gu Shitong drove from Fanghua Community at No. 15 Jiangbei Avenue North into Binhai Avenue and then entered County Road 188.

Jiang Yiming said: "If Gu Shitong wanted to drown Bai Lu in the sea near Xiang'ao Village, he should have gone to the beach in Xiang'ao Village a few days ago to familiarize himself with the environment, that is, to check out the location. Therefore, I suggest that your visual inspection team check The recording time should be a few days later, preferably starting from October 10, or a few days later."

"Captain Jiang, you are right. He is not from Yanming Township. He was born in Mingli Street, Jiangnan District. Therefore, he is not familiar with the fact that there is a road leading to the seaside in Xiang'ao Village. It was just an accidental opportunity. For example, he discovered it when using an electronic map. However, no one has walked on this road, so I must go and check it out." After saying that, Lu Yingying went out.

Jiang Yiming called Zhou Ting and came to Gu Shitong's office again.Jiang Yiming sat down on the chair in front of his desk and said: "Mr. Gu, you still refuse to tell us the truth. Let me ask you: Why did you drive to Xiang'ao Village at around 10 o'clock in the morning on October 13th?"

"Oh, Captain Jiang, you don't have to be so strict, okay? I'm not a prisoner, but you didn't ask, so I don't know if I should tell you. That's it, Bai Lu sent a WeChat message to I said that she really couldn't stand Lu Qi's torture and that she was going to commit suicide by jumping into the sea. So, I went there to find Bai Lu.

"Because I rarely log in to the WeChat account 'Yi Liao Yu', I didn't log in to the WeChat account until 13 a.m. on the 4th when I woke up too early and felt bored. I wanted to chat with Bai Lu because she was in a different room from Lu Qi. Only then did I dare to send her a WeChat message. When I logged into WeChat, a line of text jumped out of my eyes and scared me into a cold sweat. Captain Jiang, please take a look——"

Jiang Yiming took his mobile phone and checked Bai Lu's message, which read: Dear, I can't stand the torture of that devil Lu Qi, and I can't tolerate the fact that we are deeply in love but can't be together. I'm going to commit suicide by jumping into the sea. I know that there is a particularly blue sea near Xiang'ao Village. I like the pure sea water, quiet air and blue sky there. It is the most ideal destination. I will throw myself cleanly into the embrace of the sea and say goodbye forever. I am willing to use I will practice for 1000 years, and I will be able to meet you again, fall in love with you, and sleep with you in the next life! ! !
Bai Lu left her last words to Gu Shitong under her real name at 10:12 on October 16.Jiang Yiming thought for a while and thought that the message should have been left to him on Bai Lu's WeChat. If it was fake, Lu Yingying could find out. Even if Bai Lu deleted the chat history, he could use technology to restore it, so it shouldn't be fake.

However, it doesn't mean anything that Gu Shitong could push Bai Lu into the sea and drown, and then use her WeChat to leave so-called last words to Yi Mianyu.The most important thing is that Bai Lu has no motive to commit suicide. Shen Yi knows Bai Lu best and it is absolutely impossible for her to commit suicide. So, what trick did Gu Shitong use to make Bai Lu look like she committed suicide?
Does the word "clean" in "I will throw myself neatly into the embrace of the sea" mean stripping off your clothes and jumping into the sea?No, this should be a small trick in Gu Shitong's big conspiracy.But how did he trick Bai Lu into going to the beach in Xiang'ao Village?
In addition to waterways, there are only land routes, but why couldn't any of the surveillance cameras capture him and Bai Lu heading to Xiang'ao Village together?
"Excuse me, where were you from 10 noon to 12 pm on October 12?"

"I sent my little daughter to the No. 12 Civil Hospital in the province at 9:1 a.m. on the 13th. The doctor said she had no serious illness and probably had a cold. She was hospitalized for three days. After completing her hospitalization procedures, I bought food. After eating for her, I drove back home. It wasn’t until 4 a.m. on the [-]th that I received Bai Lu’s last words and then drove to the beach in Xiang’ao Village to look for her.”

Jiang Yiming and Zhou Ting came to Fanghua Community and checked the surveillance video of the 44th gate where Gu Shitong lived. The results proved to be exactly what Gu Shitong said.Under the leadership of security guards, they inspected the structure of Building 44 and found that there was no exit anywhere except Gu Shitong's garage.

However, the garage door was also under surveillance. The surveillance video showed that the only time the garage door was opened was at 13:04 in the morning on the 09th, which was the time when Gu Shitong drove to Xiang'ao Village to find Bai Lu.The security guard took them to the rooftop.The rooftop is always 28 stories above the ground, at least 90 meters. Even with a rope, it is difficult to slip from the rooftop to the ground.

Under the surveillance of surveillance cameras on all sides of Building 44, they checked all the surveillance videos and found no one slipping from the rooftop to the ground with the help of ropes. So, Gu Shitong had a perfect alibi, but why did all the investigations point to him? Woolen cloth?What trick did he use?
Jiang Yiming and Zhou Ting returned to the team. Lu Yingying knew that after they came back, she took her laptop and came to Jiang Yiming's office. She said excitedly: "Team Jiang, you are indeed wise. We found that Gu Shitong died on October 10th and 9th." He drove to Xiang'ao Village on the 10th and the 11th. Xiao Ke and Angkor also brought back the surveillance video at the entrance of Hongyun Restaurant in Xiang'ao Village, which proved that his car passed the entrance and drove towards the seaside in the past three days. "

"Oh, this is good. We are almost finding the truth, but there is no evidence. The next step is to find evidence. How long does he go there each time?"

"I calculated that he stayed at the beach for about a quarter of an hour."

"Is it always a quarter of an hour?"

"Yes, he seems to have obsessive-compulsive disorder and is very punctual."

"If he went to visit the spot, why didn't he use enough time to understand the surrounding situation at one time, but did it three times?" "This... I don't understand, his behavior is very strange."

"You can open the video at the entrance of Hongyun Restaurant and let me see it."

Lu Yingying opened her laptop and played the video saved on the desktop for Jiang Yiming to watch. The video was not long. Gu Shitong passed the door of the restaurant every time for about 25 to 30 minutes. Because the monitor was only about 4 meters away from Gu Shitong's car, the video was clearly visible. The scene was taken.

After Jiang Yiming watched it once, he played it again several times. He always felt that something was wrong. He thought for a while, used the mouse to pause the scene when the car passed the door, and said to Lu Yingying: "I watched it carefully several times and felt that the car The height of the tire from the ground is different when going back and forth, you have a good eye, come and see if it is true.”

Lu Yingying stepped forward and carefully looked at the height of Gu Shitong's tires when he left, and then went into the height of the tires when he returned. Sure enough, he found that the tires on his return were nearly two centimeters shorter than the tires when he left. Lu Yingying was afraid that she might have misunderstood, so she took a screenshot of the video and carried out After comparison, the result was really two centimeters different.

Jiang Yiming smiled: "Yingying, what do you think is in Gu Shitong's trunk?"

"Captain Jiang, I guessed it. Ask Zhou Ting to guess too."

"After listening to you two talking like this, of course I guessed it. Otherwise, I am not worthy of staying in the No. 1 Major Crime Team. We might as well learn from the game played by Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu in the Battle of Red Cliff, and write their respective answers in the palm of their hands. Let’s see if everyone is the same.” Zhou Ting suggested.

"Okay, this game is interesting!" Jiang Yiming was very happy. He went to the pen holder to get three pens, handed them to Lu Yingying and Zhou Ting respectively, and then started writing in the palm of his hand.After writing, the three of them clenched their fists and stretched out their fists. Jiang Yiming shouted: "One, two, three." Everyone released their fists at the same time, and they saw the word "water" written on the palm of Zhou Ting's hand.Lu Yingying and Jiang Yiming wrote the word "sea water".

"Captain Jiang, you and Yingying are more accurate. I'm just one step behind, so I'm willing to lose!"

"There's no difference, it's just an expression. Now we all know Gu Shitong's trick. For three days, Gu Shitong went to the seaside of Xiang'ao Village to transport seawater. When the seawater was enough to fill his big bathtub, he stopped He was lucky again, because his wife Fan Bingyan flew to Beijing to study for half a month on the morning of October 10th. So, he sent his daughter to the hospital on the morning of October 9th, and then called Bailu and asked her to go to his house for a tryst. , Bai Lu, of course, didn’t know it was a trick, and came..."

"No, we didn't see Bailu in the surveillance video of the 44th gate of Fanghua Community." Zhou Ting said.

"Don't worry, listen to me. The surveillance video we checked was from 12 o'clock to 12 o'clock in the evening on the 6th. Bai Lu took the key given to her by Gu Shitong and came to Gu Shitong between 12:9 and 11:[-] on the [-]th. At home, cook a meal for him and wait for him to come home to eat."

"Captain Jiang, isn't Bai Lu too bold? Isn't she afraid that the hostess will come home suddenly? If she wants to have a tryst, she should go to the hotel." Lu Yingying felt that Bai Lu's behavior was hard to understand.
