The identification results are out.
This is not an antique, but a later imitation that has been made to look old, and there are no signs of it having been fired.
After seeing this identification result, Bai Song’s doubts were resolved, but new doubts arose.
The source is clear, because the design of this thing is too simple, and it is too easy to produce, much easier than the Type 92. This means that it is possible that it was illegally manufactured by a small workshop, and there may be more than one.
And there might be only this one bullet in here, so this woman can’t use it at all.
So here comes the question:
1. Where does this thing come from?
2. How did the woman kill her husband?
3. What is the true situation of the woman killing her husband and burying his body?
4. What does it mean that the woman concealed the source of this thing and lied that she used it to kill her husband?
5. Why does the woman have such good psychological quality?
Bai Song is very logical in handling cases. It is true that he has encountered many illogical things over the years, such as indiscriminate killings, but there is a logic to this kind of husband-killing case. You can't say that the wife was bored recently and chopped her husband to pieces.
Given this situation, Bai Song does not intend to let go of this case. There must be something hidden behind this.
Back at the bureau, everyone started discussing the case.
"Do you think this was directed at you?" Wang Liang asked after hearing the whole process.
When Bai Song went to Yuzhou, they went out to arrest people and encountered an operation specifically targeting Bai Song, so Wang Liang is still a little worried now.
"How is it possible? There are too many coincidences." Bai Song shook his head.
First of all, it was a very coincidental that senior brother Liu Zhe discovered the dismembered body. Liu Zhe’s daily walking route was also different. If it weren’t for Liu Zhe, this case would probably have remained buried for a while.
Shangjing is not a rural area, and apart from the municipal government, few people would dig the soil. So judging from the burial sites of body parts that have been discovered so far, if nothing unexpected happens, no one may discover the problem for a year or two.
"That's true. Everything that happened afterwards cannot confirm that it was you who arrested the person," Wang Liang thought about it carefully for a long time and agreed with it.
"Then we have to continue interrogating this woman." After Wang Huadong finished speaking, he said to Wang Liang, "By the way, how is your visit to Director Wei going?"
"Today is Friday, so there's probably no hope. We've called the Shangjing Public Security Bureau to come over next Monday. They'll probably be in charge of the case. In addition, we'll have to have people from Yuzhou come over, as there are many people involved in the case there." Wang Liang looked at Bai Song, "Maybe there's someone we're dealing with here."
"There are indeed many such things in the southwest region. Yuzhou and Rongcheng are the two largest cities in the entire southwest, so it is really hard to say about this kind of thing." Bai Song nodded.
"It seems that the Shangjing City Bureau will have a special task force for that case," Liu Shuyuan said, "Then it's not a case that our team can handle alone. Since they don't need us to do anything, why not dig deeper into this case and see what it is."
"I think the breakthrough is not here, but with the dead man's parents," Bai Song said, "Normally, when their son dies, most parents would fight to the death, right? Why don't they fight to the death over there?"
"What's the point of fighting until they're dead?" Wang Liang said casually, "Besides, you haven't seen what the man's parents look like."
"So I want to see if there is anything fishy here." Bai Song said.
"Do you want to go to Liao Province for a few days?" Wang Liang said with a smile.
"Actually, Bai Song is right. This is indeed a problem." Sun Jie thought for a while. "I don't know what psychological defenses this woman has now. She must have a lot of problems. It's a good idea to try to find out from the side. We can also look for the woman's sister, who is the child's aunt."
"Then I will stop being idle. I will write a business trip application and go to see Director Wei." Bai Song thought for a while and asked, "Who is interested in getting in touch with the woman's sister?"
"Let Shuyuan go," Wang Liang said mischievously, "He's better at approaching women."
"Get lost." Liu Shuyuan knew that Wang Liang was mocking him for not being able to handle girls. "I want to go on a business trip with Bai Song."
"Haha, that's fine. Shuyuan, we're on a business trip. We can leave today so we can be back tomorrow." Bai Song looked at Wang Liang: "I'll leave things here to you."
"Okay, I'm not afraid of this kind of thing anyway. You two will be back from your business trip tomorrow, so you're not afraid of being tired."
"The sooner this matter is over, the better. I'm really afraid of more trouble." Bai Song has always had a strong curiosity about cases that he can't figure out at all.
Now, for some cases, he can figure out the process but the suspect has not been caught. He can hand the case over to the local law enforcement unit without any worries and then turn around and leave. However, if he cannot figure out the logical sequence from beginning to end, he will not be able to sleep well.
When Bai Song went to find Director Wei, Director Wei was talking to someone in the room. Bai Song waited for almost 20 minutes before going in.
"You're at the door?" Director Wei saw Bai Song and said, "You should have told me earlier. If I had known it was you, I would have let you in earlier."
"I don't have any urgent business," Bai Song said, "Director Wei, how is the clue that Hou Fangyuan brought back?"
"This is certainly a very useful clue," Director Wei said. "To be honest, we have tried to place undercover agents there but have not been able to accomplish such a feat. We have carefully studied this information and will start the arrest operation as soon as possible. A special task force will be set up next Monday, and we will strive to catch all these people within a month. Before the task force is set up, investigations have already begun in various places."
"Next Monday?" Bai Song felt that the process was still slow. According to his idea, the task force should have been set up today. Oh, no, it was yesterday.
"Before the special task force was established, our bureau was responsible for distributing the documents. The special task force was established by the Shangjing City Bureau, but this does not affect the current investigation of the case." Director Wei understood what Bai Song meant and said, "You are just anxious. Once the '12.11' special task force is established, we will only be responsible for guiding it. At that time, you teams can also keep an eye on it. We will discuss this in the afternoon meeting."
"'12.11' task force?" Bai Song calculated and found that next Monday was indeed December 11th.
"Yes," Director Wei nodded, "What's the problem?"
"No problem, it's just that I've handled the '12.01' and '12.22' projects before, and I found that there are really a lot of things to do in December." Bai Song shook his head.
"It's normal to have the same name," Director Wei asked, "What questions do you want to ask when you go to Liao Province this time?"
"I just want to know why the man's parents decided not to pursue the matter," Bai Song said. "In this case, whether the deceased's parents pursue the matter does not affect the nature of the case, but it will affect the conviction and sentencing. Aside from the woman and the underage daughter, the man's only parents are close relatives, and these two have said they will not pursue the matter. In addition, the man beat the woman, so the final sentence of this murder case will definitely tend to be life imprisonment, or at most suspended death sentence."
"You mean, the woman found a way to bribe the man's parents?" Director Wei is also a veteran investigator. "You handled this case very well. I haven't paid attention to this case these days because Hou Fangyuan provided too many clues. If we talk about the dismemberment case you handled, it can be called a classic case."
"It's possible," Bai Song ignored Director Wei's compliments and said directly, "But this woman doesn't have any savings or money. I don't know how to bribe her. This is one reason. The second reason is that it would not be a small amount of money. And the woman hasn't been to Liao Province during this period, and there is no record of money she has transferred."
"Well, since even Inspector Bai can't understand the logic, we really have to go." Director Wei nodded.
"Director Wei..." Bai Song was most afraid of being praised like this by his leader. Every time he was praised, nothing good happened.
"Hahaha, don't be afraid. What are you afraid of when I praise you alone?" Director Wei said with a smile, "Be careful when you go to Liao Province. It's very cold there now. Wear more clothes. By the way, who are you going with?"
"Liu Shuyuan." Bai Song said.
"Okay, I'll feel comfortable letting you two go." Director Wei signed the business trip form and handed it to Bai Song.
It was quite cold during this time in Beijing, not to mention after passing Shanhaiguan. Bai Song and Liu Shuyuan wore down jackets and took the high-speed train to Liao Province in the afternoon.
It was already nine o'clock in the evening when they arrived at the destination. The man's parents were in the countryside, so Bai Song stayed in the local county town first, preparing to go there early the next morning.
Early the next morning, the two took a taxi and headed straight to the countryside.
The cost here is not high, a car costs 400 yuan a day with a driver.
Before coming here, they contacted the local township police station, and the police station sent a deputy director to take two people to find the man's family.
It had just snowed here, and the roads around the village were not cleared well enough, so taxis did not dare to drive into the village. The two followed the police station's domestic off-road vehicle into the village.
"Two leaders, you come here in such a cold weather, what a huge task it is?" The local police station doesn't have a single call for help all day at this time of year, so this guy is a bit idle.
"It's not a big deal," Bai Song said, "The couple who came here are the parents of the murder victim. The daughter of the victim was driven here overnight by the Beijing police the day before yesterday. We came to take a look."
"Why do we need the leaders of the department to come and see this kind of thing? Just send us a notice and I will come and see it." The deputy director is called the deputy director, but he is actually only in his 20s. There are only three regular police officers in this police station, a director and a deputy director, in addition to which there is an old sheriff.
"I suspect there may be other circumstances." This was the only answer Bai Song could give.
The deputy director was tactful and did not ask any more questions. After arriving in the village and asking around, he found the parents of the deceased.
When Bai Song and others got out of the car, they saw the deceased's daughter sweeping snow in the yard.
This snow fell the day before yesterday. Normally, the snow would have been cleared at home long ago. Why did they only come out to clear the snow today?
Pushing open the door and walking straight into the house, Bai Song saw the little girl. This was actually the first time he saw this little girl. From her appearance, she looked more like her father - Bai Song had seen the photo of the deceased.
The little girl was not afraid of strangers, so she stood there, looked at the three people, wiped her nose, and continued to sweep the snow.
"Are your grandparents at home?" Bai Song asked.
The girl wasn't talkative. She pointed inside the house, and Bai Song and the other two went straight in.
As soon as he entered the room, he could smell a strong smell of alcohol. Bai Song saw a stove with a lunch box on it. The food inside the lunch box had been burned to charcoal. Walking inside, Bai Song saw two elderly people in their sixties and seventies lying on the kang, snoring after drinking too much.
Who is taking care of whom here?
You are so old and you are still drunk in this weather?
"Wake up, wake up." The deputy director didn't want to pamper them, so he went up to shake them and said, "It's already morning and you're still sleeping. How much did you drink last night?"
"He should have drunk it in the morning." Bai Song couldn't ask anything seeing the situation, so he could only come back in the afternoon.
He looked around the house. It must have been renovated recently, so the insulation was pretty good. There was a newly bought LCD TV in the house, and one or two tons of coal were piled in the yard at the door.
Bai Song then looked at the wine that these people drank last night and today, 53-proof Huang Gai Fen.
"This family is well off," Bai Song said, a little puzzled. "Didn't they say they were on the minimum living allowance? I remember there were about 451 bottles of this wine, and here are two boxes, 24 bottles."
"How come this old lady is also an alcoholic?" Liu Shuyuan frowned, "Is she drinking to drown her sorrows because her son died?"
"Not really," Bai Song looked at the wine bottles scattered all over the floor. "It's not something that can be drunk in two days, right? These two are probably drunkards."
"If that's the case, it's understandable. In that case, these two people had problems with their brains due to drinking, so they didn't pursue the death of their son? Could it be that the woman bribed these two with a few boxes of wine?" Liu Shuyuan asked.
"No matter how drunk he was, he wouldn't just ignore his son's death, right?" Bai Song still couldn't understand.
"Let's call their secretary over later, move all the liquor from his house to the village committee, and tell the village store that they can't sell him liquor at this time. Then when they sober up, they can either go to the village or call the police. I'll know anyway."
"Isn't this inappropriate?" Bai Song felt that the deputy director's way of solving the problem was quite direct.
"What's inappropriate about that?" The deputy director pointed at the child outside and said, "Look at that little girl, is she ten years old? This old couple, if this isn't abandoning a child, what is that? I'm trying to save this child and stop them from drinking like that. There's nothing wrong with this approach."
The deputy director didn't say a word, just helping his superiors solve problems, what does that count?
"Okay, let's do this. Otherwise, we don't know when they will wake up. We can't just keep waiting. It will be troublesome if they wake up and continue drinking." Bai Song said, "Let's contact their village. The village has to intervene in this matter. The child is too young. If the village thinks that the old man and the old lady can't raise the child, I will send the child to a welfare institution."
"Okay, leave it to me." The deputy director agreed readily.
