Chapter 97 Another Murder Case
After completing the transcripts of all relevant personnel, Hu Jianzhong came to the conference room of the criminal police team to attend the case analysis meeting. The technicians first reported on the on-site investigation.
"After preliminary judgment, Li Junming was strangled to death by someone with his hands, and there were very obvious fingerprints on the deceased's neck. The fingerprints at the scene were relatively messy and no valuable clues were found. Several hairs were found on the ground on the scene, and after preliminary comparison, they were the deceased's."
"Is there any other situation?" asked the criminal police captain Ding Yimin.
"The footprints in the bathroom and corridor are quite messy, but we extracted two clearer footprints in the compartment where the deceased died. After preliminary comparison of the patterns on the soles, it was believed that they were left by a pair of sports shoes. The size of the shoe print is about 27cm. Based on this, it is speculated that the height of the footprint owner should be between 180-185cm."
After listening to the report from the technician, the criminal police captain Ding Yimin said:
"The impact of this case is very bad. You use cruel means to kill people in public. Moreover, the deceased is a well-known entrepreneur in our city. We must find out the case as soon as possible and arrest the murderer."
"After inquiring about the on-site personnel, people did not notice that there were special personnel entering and leaving the hotel," said Hu Jianzhong.
"Since we cannot find clues at the moment, we will start with the social relations of the deceased, find out the social relations network of the deceased, find out the vested interests after the death of the deceased, and then check their alibi one by one." Ding Yimin gave the instructions.
"Yes!" Hu Jianzhong and others answered.
Just as the police launched a tense investigation into the Li Junming case, Gui'an City was not waiting in peace to arrest the murderer, but was brewing another crime.
"Niannian, Niannian, come back early in the evening!" A middle-aged woman in her forties stretched out her head and shouted loudly downstairs at the window of a three-story building in a villa area.
"I understand, mom!" A girl walking out downstairs agreed impatiently.
The girl's name is Liu Niannian. She is the only daughter of Liu Yulong, the owner of Angui Company in Gui'an City. The one she told her upstairs was Liu Yulong's wife Qian Ya.
Liu Niannian is 23 years old and just graduated from college last year. Because her family is rich in financial conditions, she is not in a hurry to find a job. She lives a carefree life of sleeping until she wakes up naturally and sleeping when she is tired. Her father bought her a BMW, but she doesn't like driving. She basically takes a taxi when she goes on the street.
In recent days, Li Niannian has had a boyfriend. The young man is tall and tall, sunny and handsome. He is the son of an official with a high status in the city. Today the two made an appointment to go sing and have barbecue.
Gui'an people like to go to food stalls when eating barbecue. After the sun sets in the evening, merchants place small square tables on the sidewalks on the road, while pedestrians are squeezed into the motor vehicle lane. However, this will not affect traffic. At that time, Gui'an City did not have so many cars, and there were not so many people going out at night.
The most popular food stall in Gui'an is called the "Northeast Barbecue Food Stall". The food stall is opened on the embankment of a river passing through Gui'an City. On summer nights, the river wind blows across the water and crosses the embankment with humid air. People eat barbecue on the embankment and drink beer.
It was already very late when Liu Niannian and her boyfriend finished singing the song and came to the barbecue food stall. The first wave of customers at the food stalls had gradually dispersed, and guests who liked to go to nightclubs were gradually coming.
Liu Niannian and the others found a quiet and windy table to sit down, ordered skewers and beer to chat with each other.
Not far from Liu Niannian and his boyfriend's table, a strong man in a T-shirt came. He also ordered beer and barbecue. He drank wine alone silently, and glanced at the direction where Liu Niannian was from time to time.
The hour hand quickly passed twelve o'clock. After Liu Niannian and her boyfriend had enough food and drink, they snuggled intimately along the riverside slowly. The cool river breeze blew on their faces, making people feel very comfortable. The stars shone on their lovers, making the atmosphere more warm and ambiguous.
Liu Niannian and her boyfriend found a hidden corner under the tree on the river bank and sat on the grass under the tree. The boyfriend hugged Niannian's waist, Niannian hooked her boyfriend's neck, and their bodies leaned against each other and their lips stuck together.
A black shadow slowly approached from behind the tree, and the black shadow cat-chested, carefully avoiding the dead leaves under his feet to avoid making noises. He quietly came behind Liu Niannian and his boyfriend, who were in a state of passion and selflessness, without any notice of the dangers of coming to his side.
Black shadow stood behind the two of them, slowly stretched their hands directly above their heads, and their big hands hovered there. Suddenly, Black shadow grabbed the two of them, pulled them hard to both sides, spreading their lips apart, and then suddenly bumped their foreheads together.
The two of them were knocked unconscious before they opened their eyes. The black shadow shook off his boyfriend's body and threw him over. He held Niannian's chin with his left hand, pressed Niannian's forehead with his right hand, pressed Niannian's back with his knees, and quickly rotated counterclockwise with both hands. Only a slight sound of "click" was heard, Niannian's beautiful face had turned 180 degrees.
The black shadow let go of Niannian and let her body face up and face down on the grass. She patted her hands gently, swept away the hair and liquid stuck to her hands, tidied up her wrinkled clothes, and walked towards the distance.
The grass on the river bank was illuminated by the lights of cars, and the ruthless cordon silently isolated the scene of the crime scene. Hu Jianzhong stood on the grass and watched the forensic turn Liu Niannian's head over, and a trace of fear and anger surged in his heart.
"It's just a beast!" Ding Yimin said angrily at the scene.
"Even beasts are worse than animals!" Hu Jianzhong said in his heart.
The boy sat in a panic seat with the open van door in a terrified state. Hu Jianzhong stood beside him and began to ask about the situation:
"What is your relationship with the dead?"
"Love, lover." The boy stammered.
"What is the name of the deceased?"
"Li Niannian."
"Where is her home?"
“In the villa area on the outskirts of the city.”
"Oh, do you know who his parents are?"
"She is the daughter of Liu Yulong, the boss of Angui Company."
"Angui Company? Is Angui Company that does real estate development?"
"Yes." The boy nodded.
Hu Jianzhong left the boy, walked quickly to Ding Yimin's side, and said a few words to him.
"Oh, such a coincidence?" Ding Yimin asked suspiciously.
"Yes, people from two real estate companies have been killed one after another. Will this be related?" Hu Jianzhong said to Ding Yimin.
"Notify the family members. When their emotions stabilize, we will find them to find out the situation."
Liu Niannian's father, Liu Yulong, the boss of Angui Company, came uninvited. At this moment, he was sitting in the reception room of the Gui'an Criminal Police Team in pain and anger, shouting at Ding Yimin, Hu Jianzhong and the deputy director present:
"What are you policemen? You can't even guarantee the safety of citizens' lives. What's the face of wearing this police uniform?"
"Mr. Liu, please calm down. We are also very angry about Ling Ai's murder. We will do our best to solve the case, arrest the murderer, and give him the punishment he deserves." Ding Yimin said with a serious expression.
"Niannian, my Niannian!" Liu Yulong thought of his daughter and fell on the sofa to cover his face and cried. No one in the reception room said, and they were crying in their hearts.
Liu Yulong cried for a long time, took out a cigarette and lit it, took a deep breath, and said in a hoarse voice:
"I'm sorry, I was so excited just now."
"It's okay, Mr. Liu, we understand your mood." Ding Yimin replied.
"Why? Why do some people want to kill Niannian? Can you tell me?" Liu Yulong asked.
"Analysis of the situation at the scene, the murderer did not rob money or sexually assault, and did not attack the boy, but just knocked him out. We believe that the murderer's purpose was to kill Liu Niannian, and the murder method was very clean and neat, and one blow was fatal." Ding Yimin analyzed.
"Why? Niannian a little girl, what kind of enemies can she have?"
"So we currently doubt whether the murderer will target her family, or because of business competition."
"Ah! How is this... possible?" Liu Yulong asked in surprise.
"Have you or your lover ever offended someone?"
"This..., how could it be that there has been no dispute over people, but there is no life!" Liu Yulong said with a sad face.
"Think about it carefully. If there is a person who doubts, we will investigate and verify it."
Liu Yulong lowered his head and smoked a whole cigarette, then shook his head and said:
"I really can't remember people with this kind of hatred. When we do business, we should be kind and make money. We should forgive others when we have to. We will not form such a big hatred."
"Did you hear that Li Junming was killed a few days ago?" Ding Yimin asked.
"Ah! We just heard that something happened to the boss of Guikai Li Junming, and the specific situation is not clear."
"Li Junming was killed in the bathroom of Tianwai Village Hotel." Ding Yimin said.
"He was also killed? But our family has basically no connection with Li Junming. Although we are both doing business, the two companies are similar in size, but there is no intersection. Although we have competition in the real estate industry, there is no major conflict of interest."
"But we think that the bosses and family members of two large companies in the city have been killed one after another, and this may be related. Think about it again, will you have a common interest?" Ding Yimin said.
Liu Yulong lit a cigarette again and fell into thinking. The small reception room was filled with smoke, which made people feel suffocating. Hu Jianzhong quickly opened the window.
"If there is a connection between us, it is the real estate business. We have no conflict of interests in other aspects." Liu Yulong extinguished the cigarette and said.
"Then you just think about whether there is any conflict in the real estate business."
"Ah! I remember something!" Liu Yulong suddenly stood up from the sofa and said excitedly to Ding Yimin:
"Have you heard that Lin Hongwei, the boss of our city's real estate business, the boss of Debao Company, and his wife and daughter, all died in Japan a few days ago."
"Ah! There is such a thing. Do you know how he died?" Ding Yimin asked.
"I heard that I had a car accident while traveling to Japan." Liu Yulong's face was filled with fear after he finished speaking.
"How is your company and your company rank in real estate business?" Hu Jianzhong asked.
"The boss of Debao, the second place is the second place, and we are the third place." Liu Yulong answered depressedly.
"There are any problems in three real estate companies in Gui'an City. Is there any connection between them?"
Ding Yimin said to himself, and everyone in the reception room was in deep thought. A cold wind blew in from outside the window, causing everyone to shivered unconsciously.
