Chapter 229

At five o’clock in the afternoon, Xiong Yikai finally made an appointment with a partner. It was too late to make a temporary hotel reservation. He could only rely on his father-son relationship with Xiong Liming to let the people at Hua Gong Restaurant temporarily arrange a location.

After coming over, he has been drinking and chatting with customers in the box. The progress is fairly smooth, but it didn’t take long before Xiong Liming called.

Since the relationship between their father and son has been very bad for a long time, almost to the point where even communication is difficult, the two inevitably quarreled.

Xiong Yikai drank alcohol and had a bad temper. He became more and more excited when he heard Xiong Liming say that he should not engage in social entertainment through the relationship if he has the ability.

He felt a little flustered, mainly because he was afraid that after Xiong Liming came over, he would get into trouble and lose face in front of the client, so he immediately went back to punish him and put the game up first.

Who knows that the customer feels disappointed and is very unhappy. He drank a lot to calm the customer and finally sent the customer away. He couldn’t help but ran to the toilet to vomit, but there was no extra space in the public toilet on the first floor. I can only go to the staff bathroom next to the back kitchen, vomiting faintly, and then become unconscious.

When he woke up, he found a large group of police around him, and he had never seen Xiong Liming from beginning to end.

“Then did you meet anyone in the process?” Zhou Ze asked with a frown.

“Yes.” Xiong Yikai thought about it carefully, and said in a daze: “But I was drunk at the time. It seems that I met two people, but it doesn’t seem to be the case.”

Zhou Ze asked, “Then, when you enter the staff bathroom, can anyone testify for you?”

“No.” Xiong Yikai shook his head with certainty and honesty: “I remember very clearly that I was already very drunk and wanted to vomit. I rushed to the staff bathroom. I squatted down and vomited. After vomiting, I wondered if I was embarrassed. When I got lost, I looked at every cubicle when I got up. No one was there. The restaurant was very busy today. When I came in, I only heard the noise of the food. I didn’t see anyone walking around. If the staff here sees me drunk, they will definitely support me and won’t leave me alone.”

After hearing what Xiong Yikai said and looking at him like this, Geng Qing couldn’t help scratching his scalp.

From his theoretical knowledge, Xiong Yikai does not seem to be lying, unless Xiong Yikai’s acting skills have reached the point where he can win prizes.

Because whether it’s micro-expression, tone, action, or reaction, it shows that Xiong Yikai is telling the truth.

Of course, some murderers with strong psychological qualities and first-class acting skills are another matter.

But, judging from the experience that Xiong Yikai explained, there are many loopholes.

First of all, Xiong Yikai and Xiong Liming had a dispute, and he also took the initiative to confess that the relationship between father and son has been at odds for a long time, so in extreme emotions, the motive for killing can be established.

Secondly, during the period when Xiong Yikai was sending away customers… and when he was telling the truth, he would know after checking the surveillance, but he also voluntarily explained that when he was about to vomit, he went to the staff bathroom, which was relatively messy. , Is also a monitoring blind spot, which is very sufficient for the time and conditions for committing crimes.

And there are no witnesses.

Geng Qing admitted that this matter was beyond his own judgment, and could only look at Zhou Ze eagerly.

But Zhou Ze was also lost in thought at this time.

At more than eight o’clock in the evening, Zhou Ze had a meal at home.

At this point in time, Huagong Restaurant should still be at its busiest, and Xiong Liming’s death time, if it was an hour ago, at seven o’clock in the evening, how could there be no one beside the shelf of the back kitchen?

In addition, Xiong Yikai was drunk and wanted to throw up. When he went to the staff channel, there was no one there. Why would no one find him, but he was not discovered by the security until the police arrived?

“Team Week!”

Zheng Yanran hurriedly entered the door, glanced at Xiong Yikai, and said quickly: “I just saw the surveillance and asked the security guard to ask carefully. Between 6:30 and 7:30 in the evening, two major incidents occurred in the Huagong Restaurant.”

“Say.” Zhou Ze brows, he has a hunch, this is the key clue.

“First of all, a guest in the lobby had a dispute with the waiter, saying that the dishes were not good enough to make a big noise, so the chef and the back chef all rushed out to calm the incident, and because of the noisy scene, there was a push and the situation in the lobby was very bad. Almost all the waiters and security guards went out to settle the situation.”

“And just after the incident subsided, Liu Wei, Xiong Liming’s driver, suddenly transferred a large number of security and waiters, saying that Xiong Liming and Xiong Yikai were likely to have a dispute. They were afraid that something might happen, so they let them put all of their things and look for them. ”

Zhou Ze’s eyes lit up, this Liu Wei must be the murderer!

“Where is Liu Weiren?”

“He is being cross-examined by Sister Yan, do you want to see him?” Zheng Yanran asked.

“See.” Zhou Ze nodded without hesitation, the murderer was the real murderer, of course he wanted to see him.

Only when he sees the murderer can he be sure whether his judgment has made a mistake, and when he sees the real murderer, can he uncover the truth and restore the innocence of the family of the deceased.

Zhou Ze looked back at Xiong Yikai, who was still in shock, and said, “Geng Qing, you let people stare at him, don’t let him make any aggressive actions, and you can’t let him go, then immediately put the fruit knife. Send the bag of unknown powder back for identification, and notify me as soon as the result comes out.”

“Okay Brother Zhou.” Geng Qing nodded quickly, rushed out the door with the evidence, and solemnly confessed to the two security guards who had eliminated the suspicion, and then rushed back into the car.

On this side, Zhou Ze and Zheng Yanran walked to the guest room on the other side. On the way, Zheng Yanran gave out the clues he had found.

“I paid close attention to Liu Wei. He said that Xiong Liming suddenly called him early in the evening and asked him to drive Xiong Liming here. On the way, he found that Xiong Liming was very emotional, so he asked. After a few words, I knew that Xiong Liming and Xiong Yikai had a dispute, and they have been persuading him.”

“Later in the parking lot underneath, Xiong Liming rushed out of the car and walked upstairs. Liu Wei said that he was worried that Xiong Liming and Xiong Yikai might have a dispute, so he got out of the car and called Xiong Liming’s wife Ren Li, hoping that Ren Li could persuade Xiong Liming. But Ren Li was also a little agitated after knowing all this. Liu Wei had no choice but to persuade her on the phone.”

“About ten minutes later, Ren Li asked Liu Wei to go to Xiong Liming and couldn’t hang up. So Liu Wei kept the call to look for it. But when he went upstairs, he found that there was a conflict between the customer and the staff. He could only look for it himself. Unfortunately, he didn’t find it. After the situation in the lobby stabilized, he called most of the security guards and attendants to look for them together, and kept in touch with everyone by walkie-talkie during the period.”

“We checked the surveillance and phoned Su Peng who was visiting Xiong Liming’s home. Everything Liu Wei said was basically true.”

After Zheng Yanran finished speaking, her footsteps suddenly stopped, and she turned her head to look at Zhou Ze and said: “I also found that Xiong Yikai had not proved his alibi for a long time. Said that between 6:40 and 8:20, I haven’t seen him.”

“In other words, he has a big suspicion.”

Zhou Ze squinted his eyes and said, “Yes, who would have thought that the most suspected one was actually the only son of the deceased?”

“Zhou Ze, is it possible that Xiong Yikai did this thing?” Zheng Yanran always felt strange, but she couldn’t tell what was strange.

If you have to find an explanation, it is a woman’s sixth sense?

Her instinct tells her that this case is not that simple, but all the clues on hand indicate that this is the case.

“Continue to check.” Zhou Ze took a serious look at Zheng Yanran, and asked: “Are you sure that Liu Wei is within the line of sight of the monitoring screen from beginning to end?”



Zheng Yanran shook her head and said, “That’s not true. The time he started talking with Ren Li was 6:27 p.m., and the time to look for Xiong Liming was 6:34 p.m. During this period, he was photographed in the underground parking lot. Within a few minutes from the underground parking lot to the upper floor, and within ten minutes of looking for Xiong Liming in the early stage, a total of 16 minutes were on the surveillance screen, and then he lost his trace.”

“About forty minutes later, at around 7:20, when the accident in the lobby subsided, he appeared in the surveillance room out of breath, and arrested a few waiters for questioning, all of which were witnesses. Then he organized security and waiters to go. During the search, although I was not photographed by surveillance, I used the walkie-talkie to keep in touch with the security guards. From the beginning to the end, Ren Li never hung up the phone, and Ren Li also had a certificate to prove them. The two are indeed talking, and they are indeed paying attention to Liu Wei’s search for Xiong Liming and Xiong Yikai.”

Zhou Ze shook his heart. If the murderer was really Liu Wei, how many accomplices did he have?

“By the way, there should be some news from Wu Liang, you call to ask.” Zhou Ze said to Zheng Yanran.

“En.” Zheng Yanran took out her mobile phone and signaled Zhou Ze to walk into a guest room in front of her, and dialed the forensic department by herself.

When Zhou Ze stood at the door of the guest room, he saw Liu Wei, who was full of guilty guilt and had a violent black anger all over his body.

The murderer is real!

“Team Zhou.” Seeing Zhou Ze coming in, Sister Yan immediately got up and said: “The evidence collection for Lao Qian and I have been completed. This is called Liu Wei, Xiong Liming’s driver.”

Upon seeing this, Liu Wei stood up with a sad face, and made a very tired and sad look, and said: “Hello, comrade police, do you have any clues?”

“Yes.” Zhou Ze sneered for a moment, and said, “But this is not what you should ask.”

Liu Wei was stunned. There was a flash of doubt and caution in his eyes when he looked at Zhou Ze, but it was quickly covered up and replaced by a sorrow. .
