Serious Case Tracking

Chapter 63
Although there is still no clue about the identity of the mysterious waiter in the hotel surveillance video, clues have been found from Li Jian and Wu Likai.

First of all, the doubts focused on Li Jian. According to the surveyed information, after Li Jian left Xinxing Century Biopharmaceutical Co., Ltd. three years ago, he established Guanxing Biotechnology Co., Ltd. in only three months. Judging from his financial ability at the time, it was impossible to afford such a company.Secondly, although Wu Likai did not open his own company, he bought a house in a high-end community in the city center not long after he left Xinxing Century Biopharmaceutical Co., Ltd. Unable to pay down payment.

"Both of them worked in Xinxing Century Biopharmaceutical Co., Ltd., and after leaving the company, they both gained some financial benefits. Does this have anything to do with their murder?" Meng Shaohui thought to himself, Then he asked the investigator again: "Have you found out the source of their unknown funds?"

"No valuable clues have been found for the time being."

"To find out the source of their unknown assets through the relatives and friends of the two victims, this may have something to do with their murders." Meng Shaohui instructed, "Also, how did the other five researchers investigate? How is it?"

"For the time being, only some superficial situations have been found. Hu Haoting, Xu Zhi and Jiang Guowei, these three people are somewhat similar to the murdered Li Jian and Wu Likai. A good life, but the source of the funds is unknown. As for Zhao Xudong and Cai Wenbin, they are relatively ordinary. After leaving Xinxing Century, Zhao Xudong went abroad for further studies. He just returned to China half a year ago and is now working in Bluestar Biopharmaceutical Co., Ltd. ’, while Cai Wenbin is working in a university.”

After pondering for a moment, Meng Shaohui continued to ask: "Did you find out whether there is any deeper relationship between Li Jian, Wu Likai and Chen Haitao besides the relationship between the boss and the subordinate?"

"We have asked some old employees of Xinxing Century to understand the situation. The information they provided is generally consistent. In the company, Chen Haitao, Li Jian, Wu Likai and others have a very ordinary relationship between superiors and subordinates. For Chen Haitao's personality , these old employees all gave affirmation, saying that he is humble and kind, approachable, and has no airs of leadership at all. As for Li Jian, Wu Likai and others, their reputations are not as good. It seems that they are dissatisfied with Chen Haitao's keeping the key experimental data secret. So they planned to change jobs collectively, but because of Chen Haitao's case, they all left Nova Century one after another, and the rumors about their job-hopping disappeared."

"First they planned to change jobs, then something happened to Chen Haitao, and then they left the company one after another and got a lot of benefits. Is there any connection between them? Could it be related to the current case?"

Meng Shaohui frowned and lowered his head to think. He always felt that some things happened too coincidentally, as if there was something hidden in them, but he couldn't figure out a clue for a while.

"Captain Meng, do you think these two murders are related to Chen Haitao's case three years ago?" the investigator asked doubtfully.

"I'm just guessing. In the current two murder cases, we have very little information about the murderer. The only thing we can be sure of is that the murderer's motive for the murder should be revenge killing. But what is the reason for revenge killing? It is not clear yet, judging from the results of the investigation at this stage, the only one that can tie Li Jian and Wu Likai together is the New Star Century Company back then, and the only thing worthy of attention in this company is the murder of Chen Haitao, who has not been broken so far. That's why I linked the current two murders with the case three years ago. Of course, one of the key points is that the murderer's method of attack came from the new anti-gastric cancer drug Golden Silkworm that Chen Haitao researched. Whether it's a coincidence or something hidden, we can only find out through investigation." Meng Shaohui explained.

"But hasn't the golden silkworm been destroyed back then? And didn't Liao Xinxin also said that the most important set of data for studying the golden silkworm is in the hands of Chen Haitao, and it is impossible for anyone other than him to research the golden silkworm. So who is the murderer? Where did you get the golden silkworm?"

"So this is the crux of the case now. If we can find out the source of the golden silkworm, it will undoubtedly be of great help to solve the case, and it may not even be possible to find out the murderer directly. However, Chen Haitao, the maker of the golden silkworm, has already been killed, and The case has not been solved so far, so the most likely to know the method of making the golden silkworm is only a few people who directly participated in the experiment, and now Li Jian and Wu Likai have been killed, so we can only start the investigation from the few people who are alive."

Meng Shaohui believes that one of the most important keys to solve the case lies in Jin Can. After all, there are only a few murderers who can use this method to kill people, and according to Liao Xinxin, Jin Can has been killed three years ago. It has already been destroyed, but the creatures that appear today are indeed no different from golden silkworms, and Chen Haitao, who mastered this biological research technology, was killed three years ago, so who made the golden silkworms today naturally became a question. breakthrough in the case.

The investigation work is in full swing, and Meng Shaohui is naturally not idle. He focuses his investigation on the case of Chen Haitao three years ago. There was some kind of connection between the cases, but he couldn't find the answer for a while.

In order to be able to solve the doubts in his heart, Meng Shaohui found Gao Guodong, the retired criminal investigation captain who investigated Chen Haitao's case, hoping to gain a more in-depth and detailed understanding of Chen Haitao's case through him.

"The case of Chen Haitao is still fresh in my memory!" Gao Guodong took a sip of tea and said with emotion, "This case was still a thorn in my heart because I didn't solve it before I retired! To put it mildly, If I die, I may not be able to close my eyes!"

For Gao Guodong's words, Meng Shaohui can fully understand and understand his inner feelings. The case was handled by him, but he couldn't solve it until he retired. This is indeed a very regrettable thing for the criminal police.

"Gao Lao, I have read the materials of the case back then. The case itself is not strange, and it can even be said to be very simple, but why can't it be solved?"

"Often seemingly simple cases are not easy to investigate." Gao Guodong held a teacup, smelling the tangy aroma of the tea, and recalled carefully: "In this case, the deceased was found on the third day after he disappeared. And in these three days, with continuous heavy rain, the entire crime scene was completely destroyed, and we could find very little clues from the scene, so we can only look for a breakthrough from the case itself, but the truth of this case That's where the difficulty lies."

"The deceased Chen Haitao was found with all his belongings, which means that the possibility of robbery and murder was basically ruled out. Judging from the autopsy report given by the forensic doctor, the deceased's death time should be between 12:1 and [-]:[-] in the morning. There is no sign of being moved after death on the body of the deceased. If this is the case, it is obvious that the place where the deceased fell off the cliff is the place where he was killed. Then there is a problem here, why did the deceased run away alone in the middle of the night? How about going to that remote mountain?"

Meng Shaohui expressed the question in his heart. Although he knew that Gao Guodong could not give him a clear answer, after all, Gao Guodong was in charge of this case back then, and he would definitely find some clues from it.

And Gao Guodong did have the same doubts as Meng Shaohui in his mind.

"Your question is also the direction of my investigation back then, but unfortunately, I found nothing." Gao Guodong looked a little helpless, and then asked curiously: "Why did you suddenly become interested in this case back then?"

Meng Shaohui narrated the case of Li Jian and Wu Likai from beginning to end.

"Well, it's not unreasonable for you to suspect that the two current cases are related to Chen Haitao's case back then." After pondering for a moment, Gao Guodong nodded in agreement with Meng Shaohui: "And the murderer is very cunning. He has carried out careful and meticulous scouting, and knows how to use the golden silkworm's poisoning time to completely keep himself out of the scene of the crime, so as not to leave any clues."

"The murderer's crime is indeed watertight, but because of the golden silkworm's murder method, he exposed himself, so I shifted the focus of the investigation to issues related to the golden silkworm, and among them The case that attracted the most attention is undoubtedly the case of Chen Haitao," Meng Shaohui said.

"Well, your analysis is very reasonable." Gao Guodong affirmed again, "The murderer knows how to use golden silkworms to commit crimes, and his identity must not be simple. Find clues in methods and motives."

"It is precisely for this reason that I came to Mr. Gao. You were in charge of investigating Chen Haitao's case back then, so I hope to have a better understanding of your views on the case back then." Meng Shaohui said.
