Chapter 291 Dating Software Fraud Case (10)

"something wrong?"

"To be precise, the suspect is... dead."

Wu Cuo clicked on the phone a few times, and handed the phone to Yan Ruyu, "This is a photo of the deceased before his death. Take a look, it is almost exactly the same as our portrait."

Yan Ruyu was stunned for a moment, the old case was difficult to investigate, but speaking of it, this case has only been over a year, how could it be so difficult that even the suspect died?

"Then what about his identity? Also, how did the suspect be found so quickly?" Yan Ruyu asked.

"Zhou Chunlei, this guy is quite well-known in the pet circle, because he has a Tibetan mastiff—the kind of Tibetan mastiff that has won the championship and is extremely expensive.

When the police visited, they happened to meet the owner of a pet supply store. The owner was also a Tibetan mastiff lover. He recognized the person in the portrait at a glance, and immediately found a photo of Zhou Chunlei on the Internet for the police to compare. "

"Tibetan mastiff," Yan Ruyu said thoughtfully, "I read the news, the Tibetan mastiff that won the championship in the competition is worth a lot, several million, and some even tens of millions."

Wu Cuo disdainfully said: "In the final analysis, isn't it still a dog? Can it still bloom flowers? It's all hype."

Yan Ruyu laughed and said, "If the Tibetan mastiff owners hear your words, they will probably let the dogs bite you."

Wu Cuo shrugged, "It was."

"But I heard that raising this kind of dog is very expensive. Don't talk about anything else, just eat it. It costs hundreds of dollars a day to eat beef. How can ordinary people afford it?" Although Minghui did not follow up with the two The case, after listening to the conversation between the two, she also understood the general idea. She pointed to the photo of the suspect and asked, "Is this person rich?"

"That's the problem. His job is a pet doctor, his parents are ordinary workers, and his family background is average. Raising a Tibetan Mastiff is a luxury that he can't afford," Wu wrongly said, "However, in this way, the criminal motive is justified. , the illegal proceeds of the fraud just filled the hole for him.”

"How did he die?" Yan Ruyu asked.

"Electric shock."

"Electric shock?"

"The police have been to the scene and finally determined that he accidentally caused the electric shock, not homicide, so there is no detailed record."

"Aren't you careful? Then where is his property—I mean, that expensive Tibetan mastiff?" Yan Ruyu frowned, "I'll contact Jinziduo now, investigate Zhou Chunlei's bank statement, and find out his economic status."

"Then I will contact the police who have been to the scene and ask for details."

While speaking, Wu Cuo had already dialed the phone.

Judging from the other party's voice, it was an old police officer. Hearing that the comrades in the city hall were asking about the old case, the other party was stunned for a moment, and then he said awkwardly: "Is it... We made a mistake in our judgment back then?"

"Don't worry, we investigate Zhou Chunlei's matter only because he was involved in other cases."

"Oh," the old police officer was relieved, and continued: "The scene was actually quite simple back then. Zhou Chunlei fell into a simple plastic bathtub in the bathroom, lying on his side, with one foot and one hand drooping in the bathroom. Outside the bathtub. There is a small half tank of water in the bathtub, with dog hair floating in the water, and on the ground next to it is a special body wash for dogs.

A hair dryer fell into the bathtub, and the hair dryer was still plugged in. When we arrived, the electric switch of his house tripped, indicating that the hair dryer fell into the water and indeed caused an electric leakage and a short circuit.

So we judged that Zhou Chunlei had an accident while drying the dog, maybe because of the slippery floor and fell down, Zhou Chunlei and the hair dryer fell into the bathtub together, resulting in electrocution and death.

After the non-homicide result came out, we withdrew, and the follow-up situation is not very clear. "

"So there was no autopsy at that time?" Wu Cuo asked.

"Yes."

"What about his dog? Was his dog there when you arrived at the scene?"

"Speaking of it, it should be his dog who made the report! The dog opened the door and ran away. The neighbor found the door of his house open and called him, but he refused to answer. When he entered the house, he was found lying in the bathroom. Just reported the case."

"What about the dog? Did you find it?"

"Where can I find it? Besides, we are not responsible for helping people find dogs."

"What?" Wu Wu's eyes widened by mistake, "That Tibetan mastiff is just lost?!"

"Tibetan mastiff? No!" The other party was also a little surprised, "We adjusted the surveillance at the door of the deceased's house, and the one that ran away was obviously a golden retriever. I clearly saw a golden retriever running out of the corridor. According to the deceased's family and neighbors, Identify it, it’s the dog of the deceased’s family, I’ve never seen a Tibetan mastiff before.”

"Didn't the deceased's family and neighbors mention the Tibetan Mastiff?"

"No mention, I'm pretty sure.

I remember one incident very clearly. At that time, the father of the deceased rushed to the scene. The only son in the family died. The old man was particularly shocked.

That's right, if it weren't for giving the dog a bath, people wouldn't die, so when we asked his father, we didn't dare to mention the dog, fearing that the old man would be irritated.

In addition, the nature of the case was not homicide, so we didn't ask so detailed... Oh, yes, I remember making a scene record at that time, but it was very simple. If you need it, I can help you find it. "

"Okay, thank you."

For non-homicide cases, there is no rigid rule for establishing a case file. The so-called record is probably just a police report, and Wu Cuo has no hope for it.

After hanging up the phone, he frowned and said, "It's impossible for such a precious dog to disappear out of thin air. If even Zhou Chunlei's father doesn't know the whereabouts of the dog, there must be something wrong with it."

Yan Ruyu didn't talk to him, and since Wu wrongly called, he has been communicating with people on WeChat.

Soon, Jin Ziduo sent Zhou Chunlei's father's address, Wu made a mistake to leave the house, and Yan Ruyu followed behind him while looking at his mobile phone.

Wu started the car by mistake and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"Drive your car, don't worry about it." Yan Ruyu replied lazily.

When they arrived at Mr. Zhou's house, it was already sunset.

The old man is sitting at the dining table eating noodles.

It's not easy to cook alone. Seeing that there is almost no oil and water in his bowl, and there are only a few vegetables, both of them feel a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, before entering the door, Wu made a mistake and bought a roast chicken in the deli at the entrance of the community.

Wu Cuo quickly opened the roast chicken and placed it in front of the old man.

"You just eat."

The old man glanced at the roast chicken, but he didn't put down his chopsticks. While sucking on the noodles, he said, "The sun is coming out from the west today? What are you looking for me for?"

"Learn about your son."

"That debt collector...has nothing to say." The old man's eyes were ashen, and his movements of eating noodles became mechanical.

What could be more tragic than a white-haired man giving a black-haired man?The two of them stayed silent for more than ten minutes with the old man. For him, any words of comfort were pale.

Ten minutes later, the old man finished his noodles, took another look at the untouched roast chicken on the table, and finally said, "You can ask."
