Chapter 362

At midnight on April 28th, Tang Wenli told everyone the good news.

After more than ten hours of intensive work, Xu Nian finally succeeded in restoring a fingerprint from each of the two bodies found in Xiaoqiushan Park.

Although the fingerprint that was successfully repaired was not complete, it was the limit of what could be repaired.

Moreover, after comparing the fingerprints of Zheng Guangming and Bai Xiuxiu with those extracted by the Technical Department from multiple on-site investigations, it was confirmed that the two restored fingerprints matched the feature points of Zheng Guangming and Bai Xiuxiu's fingerprints respectively by more than twelve points!

There are clear judicial provisions regarding the collection of fingerprint evidence in criminal cases.

Under normal circumstances, the number of characteristic points in a complete fingerprint is approximately between eighty and one hundred and fifty.

But legally, an exact match is not required because fingerprints are inherently unique.

Therefore, the law stipulates that as long as a fingerprint meets the matching requirements of more than twelve feature points, it can be used as key evidence.

So this means that Xu Nian’s hard work was not in vain. Based on her restoration results, it can finally be confirmed in the judicial process that the two bodies in Xiaoqiushan Park are Zheng Guangming and Bai Xiuxiu.

At this moment, the entire chain of evidence has truly completed a closed loop.

Pan Hongjie was the happiest person and said impatiently that he would go to find Director Guo right away.

Zhou Yi suddenly felt that Captain Pan was a bit like a child, always going to Director Guo for every opportunity.

So I asked Chen Dejiang casually, and then I found out that Pan Hongjie was brought up by Director Guo and had been following Director Guo since his first day as a police officer.

Zhou Yi suddenly understood.

No wonder, but he also knew that for most leaders, ability was secondary, and the first thing was to have their own people.

After all, this is the truth of society. Where there are people, there is the world.

Qiao Jiali asked Tang Wenli, "Where's Xu Nian?"

Tang Wenli smiled and said, "After the fingerprint matching results came out, she fell asleep sitting there."

Qiao Jiali said distressedly: "Thank you for your hard work, girl."

"Yes, if it weren't for her, the most critical link in the chain of evidence would not be connected." Tang Wenli sighed.

The next day, Pan Hongjie and his men seized all assets under Zheng Guangming's name for two reasons.

One reason is that Fan Zhongliang confessed to tax evasion and falsifying accounts, and we need to work together with relevant departments to handle this issue.

Pan Hongjie found an account book that was not completely burned on the kitchen stove in Fan Zhongliang's house. This was the key evidence that Fan Zhongliang was eager to deal with after rushing home.

The second is to find the murder weapon used to kill Yang Jian.

According to Zhou Yi's analysis, Zheng Guangming probably kept the dagger used to kill Yang Jian in order to threaten and intimidate Fan Zhongliang.

Therefore, the thing must be hidden somewhere and must be found.

Zhou Yi also had another idea, which he told Pan Hongjie frankly.

I hope that Pan Hongjie can talk to the Anyuan Procuratorate about this and file a civil lawsuit for compensation on behalf of Yang Jian's daughter Yang Lele against Zheng Guangming's family and Fan Zhongliang when filing a lawsuit in court.

Although Yang Jian was killed because he had the criminal intention of extortion, it does not mean that he deserved to die.

Filing a civil lawsuit for compensation is the only way Zhou Yi can think of to help the little girl.

With both parents gone, every step in life for a five-year-old child will be extremely difficult.

Zhou Yi couldn't do anything, so he suggested to Pan Hongjie that he could at least use Yang Jian's life to exchange for some money for his daughter.

Pan Hongjie readily agreed and told Zhou Yi not to worry, and that he would keep him updated on the follow-up of the case as soon as possible.

He also said enthusiastically that Anyuan and Hongcheng should visit each other more often in the future, learn from each other and take care of each other. This was also what Director Guo meant.

Zhou Yi smiled and replied, "I will definitely follow the arrangements of the leaders."

On the afternoon of the 29th, Zhou Yi found Xia Yu and said, "Officer Xia, come with me to find someone."

Xia Yu was obviously a little stressed out and asked nervously, "What's wrong? Is there any further progress in this case?"

Five corpses in one case, everyone in Anyuan City Bureau was scared from top to bottom. This can be said to be the biggest case since the founding of Anyuan.

Moreover, this case also involves Anyuan's business and taxation, so the impact is huge.

So when Zhou Yi opened his mouth, Xia Yu got scared.

Zhou Yi smiled and said, "No, there's nothing wrong with this case, don't be afraid."

Xia Yu was half-believing and half-doubting, and followed Zhou Yi into the car with a nervous mood. This time Zhou Yi was driving.

Zhou Yi first went to the supermarket and bought everything from rice, flour, grain and oil, which made Xia Yu dumbfounded.

Just as he was about to pay, Xia Yu suddenly understood. "Officer Zhou, are you going to see Yang Jian's daughter?"

Zhou Yi nodded. "This child has a miserable life. I can't do much to help her except buying her some things."

"No, you've done enough."

Zhou Yi said: "It's not me, it's us."

When it came time to pay the bill, at Xia Yu's strong request, he finally paid.

The salesperson couldn't help rolling his eyes as he watched the two young men fighting over this small thing.

On the way, Xia Yu proposed an idea, saying that the old lady and the little girl could move to the little girl's original home, where the conditions would be better.

But Zhou Yi rejected this idea for a simple reason. The old lady was obviously a stubborn person. Asking her to change her environment might ultimately backfire, as she would no longer take care of the children.

This is Zhou Yi's selfish motive.

He didn't know how many years the old lady could live, but he hoped she could live to be a hundred years old so that Lele would not live alone in this world.

Compared to orphanages, children actually need more psychological support.

Soon, the car stopped in front of the small house, and the old man and the young man in the house immediately looked over.

When Lele saw Zhou Yi getting out of the car, he immediately jumped and ran over, shouting "Uncle".

Zhou Yi touched her little head and asked her if she had been well behaved these days and whether she had listened to her mother-in-law.

Lele nodded, then asked a heartbreaking question: "Uncle police, have you found my dad?"

Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment. He knew the child would definitely ask this question, but he didn't expect the child's first sentence to be this.

Zhou Yi squatted down, looked at the little girl's expectant eyes and said, "Le Le, uncle has found your father, but he went to find your mother because she needs your father's care. But your father also asked me to bring you a message. He said: Le Le, you must grow up healthy, listen to grandma, go to school and study hard, don't be picky about food, don't run around, and make sure to look carefully to see if there are any cars when crossing the road. One day..."

Zhou Yi paused and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was really not good at lying, especially lies like this.

"One day, you will meet again."

The little girl seemed to understand but not quite. After all, at the age of five, she couldn't understand what death was.

But at least she knew that she would never see her parents again.

Tears welled up in her big eyes, and Zhou Yi felt a little sore in his eye sockets. What he hated most was facing the victim's family, especially the children. It was too heartbreaking.

He held Lele in his arms and coaxed her for a while, then said that he had bought her a lot of food to divert her attention.

He and Xia Yu moved all the things in the car into the house, and Xia Yu spoke a few words to the old lady in the local dialect.

It was not until Xia Yu told him that Zhou Yi realized that the old lady's surname was also Yang. Perhaps this was God's will.

When leaving, the little girl was reluctant to leave Zhou Yi, but Zhou Yi did not dare to say "Uncle will come to see you again", because he knew that he could not do it.

At this time, Xia Yu suddenly said: "Le Le, uncle will come to see you more often in the future, okay?"

The little girl looked at him shyly and said nothing.

Xia Yu squatted down, took out his police ID and said, "I am also a police officer, just like Uncle Zhou. Look, this is called a police badge. Feel it."

When she saw the ID, the fear in the little girl's eyes disappeared instantly.

Because Zhou Yi had also shown her the same ID, she reached out and touched the police badge on it, looked up at Xia Yu, and nodded.

On the way back, Zhou Yi said, "Officer Xia, thank you."

Xia Yu smiled slightly and said, "Didn't you say it wasn't me, it was us."

The fiery red sunset shone through the car window glass onto the ID in Xia Yu's hand. The police badge on it was like a blazing flame in the daytime, driving away all evil spirits.

…

By the evening of the 29th, we had basically understood the main situation.

There are only three things left.

The most important one is of course Lu Jiang, although Zhou Yi called Wu Yongcheng to report after interrogating Fan Zhongliang.

However, Pan Hongjie still solemnly held a formal telephone conference to discuss the case, expressing his gratitude to the Hongcheng police and reporting the case to Deputy Captain Wu.

During the communication, Pan Hongjie was very excited and said that he had never solved such a big case before and it was a case that could go down in history.

Then he asked casually with some excitement: "Deputy Captain Wu, it must be rare for you to see such a big case, right?"

Wu Yongcheng on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment and replied: It's okay.

Pan Hongjie felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him. He murmured doubtfully, "Is it okay? What do you mean by "is it okay?"

These three words bothered him for a long time, until one day a long time later, he saw a case file from the inside, titled "Long Zhiqiang's major kidnapping and murder series of cases", and he finally understood why it was okay.

Wu Yongcheng said that Fu Daqing is still in the ICU. The doctor said that his vital signs are normal, so if nothing unexpected happens, he can be questioned tomorrow.

Everyone in Anyuan was very happy to hear this. After all, the only one missing was Fu Daqing.

The second thing is that the murder weapon used to kill Yang Jian has not yet been found, and Chen Dejiang is currently investigating the matter.
