Chapter 4 Knocking on the Door



Li Qiangwei said, "Probably..."

......

Half an hour later.

There was a knock on the study door.

Guan Feng patted Li Xiangdong on the shoulder.

He gestured for him to preside over the trial, then left the room.

"What were the results of the interrogation?"

Zheng Yuandong handed Guan Feng a cigarette and then gestured towards the door.

The two arrived at the door.

Guan Feng lit a cigarette, took a puff, and shook his head, saying, "They're tight-lipped and won't tell us anything, just as expected. How's the technical department doing? Have they found any useful clues?"

Zheng Yuandong said, "The suspect is even more cautious than we imagined. Old Chen was so anxious he was practically ready to pump out the septic tank!"

"have a look!"

He handed a tablet computer to Guan Feng.

Pointing to the viewing history above, he said, "We checked Li Qiangwei's browsing history during this period, and it was all about crime dramas and detective novels. I'm afraid this kid was already prepared."

"Armchair strategist?"

Guan Feng flicked the ash from his cigarette and chuckled, "Trying to evade the police with something like this? This kid's being a bit delusional!"

Before it was investigated.

Perhaps they can hide for a while longer.

The suspect's identity has now been confirmed!

A vast and inescapable net.

They can uncover even the slightest clue.

Relying on the limited knowledge available online?

It's all just empty talk.

It wasn't that Guan Feng was overconfident.

If left unchecked for twenty years, some fish might indeed slip through the net.

But now Skynet provides 24/7 coverage!

If you lose a hoe, you can find it even if you dig three feet into the ground.

The only difference is whether the police need to spend that time and manpower.

Take this case for example. They were really pushed to the limit. They searched the entire Phase III community from house to house, determined to find no clues.

Guan Feng took a drag of his cigarette and asked, "Captain Zheng, any results from the community's surveillance footage?"

Zheng Yuandong said, "I've already sent someone to retrieve the data, but this is a resettlement community and an old one, so the surveillance system might not be very reliable."

Guan Feng said, "We just need to identify some key points."

The remaining task is to narrow down the scope and check each of these areas one by one.

As they were talking.

A police officer rushed up.

"Team Leader Zheng! Team Leader Guan! These are the surveillance cameras in Huimin Residential Area."

Guan Feng accepted it.

They observed it carefully together with Zheng Yuandong.

Five minutes later.

Guan Feng pressed the pause button.

Pointing to the information in the surveillance footage, he said, "Both times he went out, he drove this van out of the south gate. The timing was very close to the time of the murder, which means that the residential area was likely his final destination! At the very least, it was a transit point!"

Zheng Yuandong nodded and said, "What you said makes sense!"

Guan Feng continued his analysis: "Judging from the current traces, Li Qiangwei has strong counter-investigation capabilities, but his deliberate imitation of the case from twenty years ago may have backfired. He must dispose of the body, which may leave us with the only loophole. I think we should start from this aspect and solve the case as soon as possible."

What's your guess?

Guan Feng said, "Blood accounts for about 7-8% of body weight. If we calculate based on an adult woman's weight of 50KG, even if only half is removed, it is still close to 5 kilograms. Add to that the organs and internal organs, and to remove so much stuff, we will definitely need to use a lot of water to clean it."

"I have just asked Liu Shengguo to contact the power and water companies to check the water and electricity usage of all residents in this building."

As Zheng Yuandong listened to Guan Feng's analysis, his brows gradually relaxed, and he nodded approvingly, saying, "You anticipated the enemy's moves; well done!"

"Team Leader Zheng! Team Leader!"

At this moment, Liu Shengguo ran up with several newspaper slips in his pocket.

Guan Feng asked, "How's it going? Have you found anything?"

Liu Shengguo handed over the report and shook his head, saying, "There are 24 households in this building, and the water and electricity consumption in their homes hasn't changed much in the past few days."

Guan Feng frowned.

No change?

Did I guess wrong?

impossible!

Guan Feng had been observing ever since he entered the room.

The entire room was spotless.

Only someone with an almost obsessive-compulsive disorder would be so meticulous about details.

How could someone like that possibly stop imitating a case without properly cleaning up the beginning and the end?

Perhaps... somewhere else?

Guan Feng pondered for a moment, then came up with an idea and said, "Captain Zheng, I'd like to test the waters with them later..."

As Zheng Yuandong listened, he exclaimed in surprise, "If it really works, then it's truly a remarkable trick."
