Advocate for the deceased

Chapter 271 The Evidence of Disappearance (4)

Zhang Chao shook his head, "No, Ji Heping was one of the first to buy and renovate houses in this community, and moved in almost immediately after they were completed, while others basically moved in half a year later.

He renovated two houses, and rented Room 101 to a nearby businessman. It is said that they are Koreans from Yanbian, Jilin. They opened a restaurant at the crossroads opposite the community. It is said that half a year before the incident Within a month, they quit the house.

We approached that family, and it was said that the hotel business was good, so we bought a house earlier, and moved out after the new house was renovated. "

Zhou Hai didn't say anything else after listening. He stood at the entrance and looked towards the room. Such a house with three bedrooms and two living rooms has an area of ​​more than 150 square meters. Once you buy it, you will have two households. Could it be that someone in Ji Heping's social relationship is jealous?

"What does Ji Heping do? Has his social relationship been investigated?"

"Ji Heping has a tofu workshop. The couple buy tofu and bean curd in the market, and they can make a lot of money. Even if they don't need to demolish and buy a building, there is no problem. Their workshop is rented, and it is next to the market. The people who run it have already returned and sold the equipment.

Tofu workshops are all settled in cash, and there is no external debt.

The social relationship between the two is also very simple. Zhu Lixiang's parents are both dead, only one younger sister has already married to another province, and Ji Heping has only one younger brother, Ji Jianguo. "

Such a social relationship is really too simple, Zhou Hai moved a few steps towards the living room, the dust was picked up from the place he just stepped on, and several footprints on the ground covered by plastic film were revealed, the fat man followed him and leaned over to measure .

"Shoes size 42, the footprints are slightly inward, looking at the wear and shape, this person is not particularly tall, between 170-175 in height, not too old, definitely not more than 25 years old .”

Zhou Hai was about to turn around when a row of radiators on the northernmost side of the living room caught his attention, and he hurried towards the radiators.

Zhou Hai walked to the radiator, squatted down, and put a towel of the same color on the gap between the off-white radiator, but due to the long time, thick dust had accumulated on the radiator and the towel, as hard as salted fish squeezed into the gap.

Zhou Hai stretched out his hand to grab a corner of the towel, and pulled it upwards forcefully. There was a sound of sizzling, and then he pulled the towel up, and the dust kept flying with Zhou Hai's movements.

Zhou Hai opened the window to shake the dust on it, put the towel to his nose and smelled it, but there was no other smell except the smell of dust.

The fat people behind them saw Zhou Hai's movements, and quickly surrounded them, squinting their small eyes to analyze Zhou Hai's movements.

"Haizi, do you suspect that someone used a towel to drug you?"

"Well, send the towel for inspection in a while!
The fat man cleaned out the area under the radiator to see if there were any watermarks or traces on the floor. If it dripped quickly and in large quantities, it would still seep into the floor before it evaporated. "

Finding a portable vacuum cleaner, the fat man sucked up the dust on the floor. On the light brown floor under the heater, there was indeed a slight bulge. It seemed that the bottom had been soaked in water, but the area was very small and the diameter did not exceed five centimeters.

"Haizi, look, there seems to be water here!"

Zhou Hai knelt on the ground and looked up along the bulge, and it was indeed where the towel was hanging. Zhang Chao, who was behind him, leaned over to look at Zhou Hai and the towel he was holding in his hand.

"We saw this towel during our survey. The heating in winter is very dry. Most of them have towels on the heating or on the ground. In order to increase the humidity, we didn't pay much attention to it."

Zhang Chao quickly explained that after all, he had heard some rumors about Zhou Hai. This person handled cases very harshly and was not easy to get along with, so he hurried forward before Zhou Hai asked any questions.

Zhou Hai glanced at him, "This analysis is no problem, and the time is right, it happens to be December 12th, and the heating has already started.

However, what is the occupancy rate of this community in December 2010?
I remember you said in the introduction in the morning that only three households in this unit have been renovated, which are Room 202 at the opposite door, and Room 101 and 102 in Ji Heping. There are 21 households from the first floor to the seventh floor, and the occupancy rate has only reached [-]. %.

I remember that the heating company stipulated before 2014 that if the occupancy rate did not reach 60%, the heating would not be turned on, so how does this heating work? "

Zhang Chao was stunned, his cheeks were hot instantly, he was a little embarrassed for not finding such an obvious mistake.

Zhou Hai waved at them, and didn't say anything because of their negligence, after all, now is to find the problem.

“给小区物业打电话，调取一下2010年9、10、11、12月，四个月份中季和平的101室和102室的电费用量，我要准确数字。”

Zhang Chao hurriedly found a corner of the room to make a call to the property owner. Da Liu quickly came over with a chainsaw, helped to take pictures and cut off the floor. The bulging trace was not big, and it happened to be at the joint of the two floors.

If it is really a volatile liquid, if it flows down a large amount, it can seep into the floor. You may not see any marks at the time, but there will be some residues in the cracks of the floor. After all, the floor that has been soaked in water is generally not visible at the time. The problem is that only after half a month can you find that the skin is gradually bulging, curling and deforming.

The fat man leaned closer to Zhou Hai, looked at the floor, the heater, and the location of the dining table next to him, he was in a daze for a while and suddenly realized.

"Haizi, do you suspect that someone came to the deceased's house as a guest on December 12th, and that the towel and those liquids were left by this mysterious guest?"

Zhou Hai nodded, Fatty is now the only one who can keep up with his train of thought.

"I saw in the file just now that they investigated the people who entered and exited the community on the night of December 12, but the surveillance was not connected at that time, and only a supermarket in front of the community was able to take pictures of the entrance.

Based on your analysis of the suspect's footprints, let Xiao Hu and the others screen the video, and then ask the people around you to identify them and see the information about people with similar shapes and movements.

All the links in such careful preparation and design are definitely not random robbery cases. If you can know the population information of Ji Heping's family and the economic information of the money stored, it must be an acquaintance who committed the crime.

Still need to check Ji Heping's social relationship. "

Just as he was talking, Zhang Chao came over and handed a note to Zhou Hai, "This is the electricity consumption statistics of rooms 101 and 102 for four months."

Zhou Hai took the note, Room 101 is 120.50 yuan for September, 187.42 yuan for October, 197.20 yuan for November, and 15.74 yuan for December;
Room 102 is 185.74 yuan in September, 196.67 yuan in October, 227.42 yuan in November, and 6724 yuan in December.

According to what Zhang Chao said before, the tenant of Room 101 had already withdrawn the lease in mid-November, but the electricity bill did not see much reduction. Could it be that there was a delay in the electricity bill?

"Zhang Chao, is the electricity bill settled in real time or is there a delay?"
