Chapter 20 What the two victims have in common.
The phone rang and Charlie Feng answered it.
Soon, he hung up the phone, walked in front of everyone and said that there was a new situation: "There is another suspicious person around Yu Xingming."
"Who?" He Wanyi asked.
"The boss of the company is the one who renewed her contract."
"The two of them are currently maintaining an improper relationship, which is one of the reasons why Yu Xingming suddenly agreed to renew the contract, indicating that he still wants to continue this relationship."
He Wanyi's pupils were shocked: "What? That man is already in his 50s or 60s. How could such a beautiful girl like him?"
Da Huang suddenly said, "Maybe they are just playing around with each other, don't take it seriously. Because I found out that her boss already has a family, but his wife is out of town. His wife would have ulterior motives against Yu Xingming if she knew about their private contact. But obviously, his wife is not in Hong Kong now, so the suspect is the boss."
"Who will go with me to find the company boss to clarify the situation?" asked Charlie Feng.
“I’ll go!”
Liang Yifeng spoke, and he followed Feng Charlie.
Lin Meiqi returned to the forensic room and used the computer to retrieve the autopsy results she had performed yesterday, which had already been electronically archived.
This was considered advanced technology at the time. She looked through the photos from yesterday's identification over and over again, shooting them 360 degrees to try to find out if there were any other traces of evidence on the victim's body.
The appraisal report made yesterday did not show any situation where the mouth and nose were covered or the person was suffocated, nor was there any situation where any poison was sprayed on him.
The person was pushed down alive and was completely defenseless.
This person was either in a relatively low position or had a close relationship with her, and the victim believed that he posed no threat to her.
Perhaps even when she was with her company agent, she still had to be on guard, after all, the other party had sent her threatening photos.
Against whom can one be completely defenseless?
Someone who has never threatened him, but treats Yu Xingming as his treasure?
This case still requires a lot of visits to identify the suspect, so Lin Meiqi decided not to go out with him.
She stretched out and went outside to make coffee with hot water.
At this time, I heard several police officers talking, saying, "Do you know who called just now? Any clues provided?"
"I don't know."
"I heard a voice, it was Mingyi's, I definitely recognized that voice."
"What? Mingyi? I'm still his fan!"
"Male fans?"
"What's wrong? Is it not possible? Mingyi is liked by men, women, young and old."
"Then you like the sheriff too, right? They are cousins, and they have very similar temperaments. The sheriff is also very handsome."
"What nonsense are you talking about? I have a girlfriend, okay? I just like his acting skills."
"No wonder, that's how the sheriff gathered clues, using his showbiz connections."
"Of course, when we are interviewed by the police, many people are unwilling to tell the truth. But Mingyi is different. He has so many fans, props, lighting, and staff on the set that they know something. Usually, the staff are very sharp-eyed and can tell at a glance who the actress is close to. But when we ask, they may not tell us."
“That’s right.”
"Sergeant Sergeant had said before that he would use all the connections he could and spread the clues out like rats into a sewer. His 'rat network' is everywhere."
"Brothers, Sergeant never said that. Are you exaggerating?"
"But it is necessary to build your own information network, am I right?"
I see~
Lin Meiqi took a sip of coffee.
After staying in the forensic room for a while, the police officers from the serious crime team all dispersed.
According to the tasks assigned by Feng Charlie in advance, some of them went to visit Yu Xingming's family, while others went to the scene to check again to see if there were any missed traces.
Because a murder occurred downstairs in that western-style building and it was temporarily blocked off, the filming location was urgently changed.
The content that was filmed previously also had to be re-filmed because everyone felt that the place was unlucky and the idea of feng shui was becoming a hot topic.
Only Lin Meiqi and Xie Zhiruo were left in the serious crime squad.
Xie Zhiruo often searches for information. She is usually unknown and rarely participates in major resolutions. She is a nobody who is easily overlooked.
Lin Meiqi noticed her and smiled at her, and she smiled back.
The phone rang. Could it be Mingyi calling again?
Lin Meiqi put down her coffee and answered the phone. It was a case that the police station had transferred to the serious crime unit: "Please remember this address... There is another actor falling from a building. Please send someone there as soon as possible."
Lin Meiqi looked around and saw that everyone had gone out to visit others.
"As many people as possible will do. Just go ahead and seal off the scene as quickly as possible. Also, is the medical examiner here?"
"I am."
"Oh, then go and do the autopsy."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Meiqi looked at Xie Zhiruo. Xie Zhiruo seemed a little nervous. There were only two of them, and it was the first time for her to face such a situation with so few people.
Xie Zhiruo is a police academy student who graduated one year ago. She was admitted to the serious crime squad because of her excellent grades, but the work she did in the serious crime squad was very basic, and she rarely had the opportunity to work on her own.
Lin Meiqi saw that she was nervous but eager to try, "Bring your things, we're going to the scene."
Lin Meiqi took her own briefcase of autopsy tools, while Xie Zhiruo took evidence bags, blockades, warning signs, roadblocks and a bunch of other miscellaneous things and quickly followed Lin Meiqi's pace.
Lin Meiqi asked: "Can you drive?"
She knew how to drive before she traveled through time, but after traveling through time she couldn't drive without a license.
The two of them had to rush to the scene, so they could only rely on Xie Zhiruo. Xie Zhiruo nodded: "I can do it. I have all the skills, such as driving and shooting..."
"Very good, let's go!"
The vehicle quickly drove to the scene of the crime.
When she arrived at the scene, Lin Meiqi discovered that it was just an ordinary residential building, not a film set, unlike last time.
However, because the person on the phone said he was an actor, I wonder if the two cases are related?
Lin Meiqi got out of the car and saw a group of residents gathering around her. She said, "Oh, pretty girl! What a pity."
"I've seen the dramas she acted in. What's so depressing about that she has to jump off a building?"
"How can someone so young have the thought of committing suicide?"
Everyone was talking at once.
Xie Zhiruo stepped forward: "Excuse me, it's a police officer, please make way and don't come close."
She evacuated the crowd in a proper manner and set up a cordon.
Lin Meiqi went forward to examine the body, but not far from the body, she saw a torn strip of cloth. The strip of cloth was about five centimeters long and its shape looked very irregular, as if it had been torn from somewhere?
Lin Meiqi looked up at the building, which was about 12 stories high.
When the incident happened, the residents were all in their rooms and no one would notice who was on the top floor.
It is possible that it was a fall from a building as they said, but we also have to consider other possibilities.
Lin Meiqi put the strip of cloth into the evidence bag and handed it to Xie Zhiruo: "We need to check if there are any fingerprints of the victim on this strip of cloth. If there are, it means that he tore it from someone else's body and when he was grabbing it and dropping it, it flew out due to the huge impact force, so it fell nearby and was not held in her hand."
Xie Zhiruo understood quickly: "Come here, if there are fingerprints of the victim on it, it means someone pushed her down, otherwise a person who commits suicide would not hold a piece of cloth in his hand."
Lin Meiqi nodded: "According to the situation at the scene, the victim also died from falling."
However, when Lin Meiqi turned the victim who was lying on the ground over and checked the wound on his front, she found that the face looked so familiar.
Isn’t this the woman she had seen before who stole the spotlight from Yu Xingming?
It’s that Le Mingmei.
It seems that these two cases are related.
Xie Zhiruo was curious: "Why did they kill two actresses? If they didn't kill Yu Xingming's competitor, then what kind of person would have the same motive for killing these two actresses? Then should we rule out the suspicion of Yu Xingming's company boss who Feng Charlie and the others went to question today?"
"As far as I know, this Le Mingmei is not signed to their company, so there is no contractual dispute."
Lin Meiqi stood up, looked toward the horizon, and sighed slightly: "Things are becoming more and more complicated."
The two stayed at the scene and did not leave.
Because they knew that after Feng Charlie and his team finished their visit and returned to the serious crime team, they would definitely receive the news and rush over soon.
The two of them had to guard the scene to prevent it from being destroyed.
After waiting for about two hours, Feng Charlie and his men finally arrived.
After confirming the identity of the deceased, he and Lin Meiqi fell into the same confusion: "Now we have to find the common points between the two victims."
Lin Meiqi asked him, "How was the boss of the company you met today?"
Charlie Feng said: "The boss maintained close contacts with many women, many of whom were paid for night transactions. He called it his business."
As Feng Charlie spoke, he frowned, showing his extreme disgust at his boss's words.
Liang Yifeng couldn't help but speak up: "What old thing? He said it was consensual, but he didn't think about the girls under his command. Which one dared to refuse? It was all because of his tyranny. This sex maniac! The reason why his wife was not in Xiangjiang was because she was so angry that she had nowhere to go. She got sick and went to Macau to recuperate. She said she didn't want to see him. We also called his wife. His wife's condition is indeed not good, but they can't divorce. She is weak now and needs a lot of money to recover, but obviously, she still needs her husband's money. That man saw this point and forced his wife to suffer."
"What about the second victim, Le Mingmei? At present, it seems that she did not have any dealings with the boss. They are not in the same company, so she should not be threatened by her."
Feng Charlie nodded: "According to the information we have, the person who has an affair with the boss does not include this name."
It seems that the case has to be investigated from the beginning.
