Chapter 142 Chapter 142 Found the knife Found it...
“Yes… there are cabbage worms.”
Feng Shuxian said awkwardly, then clenched her hands, opened the car window, and reached out as if to throw something out.
Chen Erguo was stunned at the time, thinking that he was not paying attention and the small vegetable bugs ran onto him. He hurriedly looked at himself, swept again and again, but did not find any other small bugs. Then he breathed a sigh of relief.
But I just feel really sorry for them.
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. It's my fault for not paying attention when I bought the vegetables. This lettuce is really attracting bugs."
"It's okay, it's just a small matter."
Qiu Jiang responded to him kindly, and then turned her attention to Feng Shuxian.
She was a little panicked, but didn't show it on her face. When Qiu Jiang looked at her, she smiled back.
The mental quality is really strong.
Qiu Jiang sighed.
She didn't stay on her for too long, and looked at Chen Erguo again, "Brother, you mean that Li Minghui also knew that you went to rest first, right?"
"Yes." Chen Erguo was not on guard at all.
Seeing she asked again, he immediately started talking nonstop.
"We do manual labor. We have to push a cart and sell pancakes before dawn. Coming back after 1 p.m. is considered early, and most people come back after 2 p.m. We're exhausted by the time we get home. But we have to prepare vegetables for tomorrow, and that means buying, picking, and washing them. It's so tiring we can't even straighten our backs. So, usually, we get ready for bed after dinner. But that day, Lao Li couldn't come over, so we took a nap."
"When I woke up, he was already there, helping my wife cook. My wife and I are just so-so cooks, but I didn't expect Lao Li to be so good. The scrambled eggs with tomatoes he made was so much more delicious than anyone else's."
He still feels greedy when he thinks about it.
Of course, this is not the point.
"We haven't seen each other for a long time. This time, we met for the first time, so we talked about things in our hometown and had a few drinks. It was almost twelve o'clock when we finished drinking, and we were both very drunk..."
What he said later was no different from what Feng Shuxian had said to them before.
Comparing the content and tone of the two people's conversations, Qiu Jiang was very sure that Chen Erguo should be completely unaware of the situation, but Feng Shuxian definitely knew something.
Then why did she help Li Minghui?
How did they manage to make the time of the deceased's death exactly coincide with the time when Li Minghui was eating and drinking at their home?
As Forensic Doctor Lu once said, the thing that is least likely to lie in the world is a corpse.
Since the time of death of the deceased's family can be determined to be between eight and nine o'clock, the time when Li Minghui arrived at Chen Erguo's house could definitely not be eight o'clock.
At least it should be after nine o'clock.
This is really hard to understand.
Qiu Jiang took note of this suspicious point.
At this time, the store where we bought the stove also arrived.
The stove they bought was a large one that needed to be placed on a tricycle. It was quite heavy and definitely not something that one person could move.
Deng Xingwang rubbed his hands when he saw this and said, "Come on, let me lend a hand."
As he spoke, he took a step forward and raised one side, looking very reliable.
Chen Erguo also stood up immediately, and the two of them spread their legs and walked towards the car like crabs.
The journey was smooth, but it took more strength to lift it up.
"Brother Chen, I'll count down to three, and then we'll push together."
"Okay, no problem."
"Three, two, one, lift."
The two of them successfully moved the stove into the trunk.
Fortunately, they were driving a large van, and the back compartment was large enough so that they could even fit a stove.
Just as Deng Xingwang was about to close the door, the stove lost its balance and suddenly fell out of the car.
“I’ll go—”
Deng Xingwang quickly used his body to hold it in place.
"Are you okay?" Qiu Jiang asked hurriedly.
"It's okay, it's okay."
He said it twice and put the stove back on track. At this moment, something hit his stomach.
It's still making a loud noise.
He looked down and saw a transparent plastic bag, which should contain a knife.
They probably use it to cut vegetables when they set up their stall.
"Brother Chen, is this yours? Where is it stuck? I didn't see it clearly just now."
Deng Xingwang turned sideways and asked Chen Erguo.
When Chen Erguo saw the bag, he quickly opened the small hole on the side and muttered, "Look at my memory. I put the knife in here and forgot about it."
Just when Deng Xingwang was about to stuff it in, his hand suddenly stopped, and at the same time Qiu Jiang's voice rang out.
"Wait a moment."
Feng Shuxian didn't recognize the knife, but that didn't stop her from having a bad feeling.
Deng Xingwang had just noticed something was wrong, and he couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes.
Because he found that he seemed to have seen the pattern of this knife before, no, he had definitely seen it before.
I've even seen him quite a few times in the past few days.
right.
It was the sharp knife that was lost from the deceased's home and they couldn't find it no matter how hard they looked.
There was a set of knives from the same series in the kitchen of the deceased's house, and the one missing was a fruit knife.
It can't be said to be completely similar to this one, it can only be said to be exactly the same.
He opened the plastic bag in an instant, revealing the true appearance of the knife.
Qiu Jiang had also seen the photo of the deceased's kitchen knives, and her eyes instantly became sharp.
"Xingwang, arrest someone——"
"yes."
Deng Xingwang quickly rewrapped the knife and put it into his pocket, then handcuffed Chen Erguo behind his back. As for Qiu Jiang, she had already subdued Feng Shuxian, who had a terrified look in her eyes.
They then notified Wang Li and two other colleagues who were still at the scene. After everyone arrived, they sent the couple directly to the police station.
When he arrived at the police station, Chen Erguo was still confused and had no idea what was going on.
A while after they were sent to the detention room, the evidence examination department also issued the test results.
"The fingerprints on the knife were all wiped off, but after we used the luminol reagent, we did find blood on the knife. When compared with the deceased's blood, we were able to confirm that the blood on the knife came from the deceased."
Qiu Jiang and Deng Xingwang knew it was a sure thing as soon as they heard it.
Deng Xingwang, in particular, was so happy that he was flying with joy.
"Holy crap! After all this trouble, we finally found the clue. This case can finally be solved."
He is now full of energy.
"Jiang Jiang, let's go interrogate them both now. No, I think we only need to interrogate Sister Feng. She's obviously more suspicious."
Although he was a little slow to react sometimes, he was not stupid. Sister Feng had insisted on coming with them and interrupted her husband. She had that expression just now and she didn't look innocent at all.
"And I also found something suspicious about her. When we were at her house, what Sister Feng said was exactly the same as what I said during the transcript. I didn't take it seriously at first, but after I found the knife, I started to think something was amiss."
"Didn't you say she had a great memory back then? I used to think so too, but even if it's something you've experienced yourself, how can you always tell the exact same story? But Sister Feng not only said the same thing over and over again, but her words were also incredibly logical."
"She's completely logical, recounting the story in perfect chronological order, without adding any extra details. If a normal person encountered something like this, they wouldn't be able to speak incoherently, and they wouldn't be able to be as logical as she is. So there's definitely something wrong with her, and we're absolutely right to focus on her."
After making such an inference, he felt that he was extremely awesome.
Qiu Jiang also applauded and praised him, "Great, great."
"Hey, it's nothing."
He was so happy that his tail was wagging.
Wang Li also came over at this time and brought them two pieces of news.
"Brother Chen and Brother Guo just went to the provincial government for a meeting with Director Chang and the others. They want to leave it to us. If you are unsure, ask Captain Ji."
"Captain Ji said that this case is our responsibility. Since Brother Chen and the others have left, we will take over. He will not interfere unless there is something that requires his intervention."
"So... the trial of this case is handed over to us?"
Deng Xingwang was still a little bit in disbelief after he finished speaking, but he still smiled with his mouth stretched all the way to the back of his head, and his excitement was visibly evident.
Wang Li nodded, "That's right."
At the same time he continued to add.
"Even Captain Ji said that he would review all the interrogation records. If he found anything amiss, the case would be handed over to him for a retrial."
"Besides, Team Ji also said that if we dare to make such a mistake, we will be punished by him."
This sentence is a complete threat.
But to the overly excited Deng Xingwang, this was not a threat at all, but clearly encouragement and trust from love.
"Guarantee to complete the mission——"
He took the lead and walked in front with great energy and confidence.
Qiu Jiang and Wang Li couldn't help laughing and followed him to the interrogation room.
Deng Xingwang has made a lot of efforts in recent days for this case.
I have to interrogate him day and night every day and do the visiting. This time I must do the interrogation myself.
Wang Li's rank was higher than theirs, and Qiu Jiang joined later, so his understanding of the case was definitely not as good as theirs, so he volunteered to take notes on the interrogation.
After half a month, Qiu Jiang returned to her old job and missed it so much.
She picked up a pen and wrote down the time, place, people and other information in the notebook, and then the interrogation of Feng Shuxian began in earnest.
Feng Shuxian is a very outgoing and cheerful person, but after all, she is just an ordinary citizen. She was involved in this matter for no reason and was already panicked enough. Now she was taken to the police station, and her heart felt like it was about to jump out of her chest.
When she got here, she was immediately locked up. It was cold all around and there was no one to talk to. It was at this moment that she was really scared.
If she had known this would be the outcome, she would never have...
Thinking of this, she couldn't help crying.
Deng Xingwang also felt uncomfortable. After all, he really felt that this elder sister was a good person these days.
However, no matter how uncomfortable he felt, the interrogation had to go on.
"Feng Shuxian, the deceased's blood has been detected on the knife. What do you say?"
“I…I…”
She kept crying.
Deng Xingwang wasn't in a hurry. He changed his tone and asked her, "Do you still stand by your previous testimony? Or did you kill Wang Qiushan and his family?"
As soon as these words came out, Feng Shuxian was so frightened that she burst into tears, "It wasn't me, how could I kill someone... I..."
"Then tell me honestly what happened."
"I, I...I'll confess."
She started to talk about what happened that day with tears and snot. This time her words were incoherent, but fortunately everyone understood the whole story. After Qiu Jiang wrote the last word, the murderer of this case became obvious.
Immediately, Ji Mingcheng applied for an arrest warrant, and Li Minghui, who had just been released less than two days ago, got an admission ticket to the police station again.
Li Minghui never expected that he would be discovered even though he had thought of everything he should have thought of. Faced with the irrefutable evidence, he no longer had the energy to continue quibbling and soon confessed in dejection.
It was when I was going out that I met Feng Shuxian.
The two looked at each other, and Feng Shuxian immediately looked away, as if she had something to hide.
Until both were taken away.
The only one who was released, Chen Erguo, still doesn't know what happened.
There were two of them when they came, but in the end he was the only one who could leave.
"What the hell is going on?"
He anxiously wiped his tears and stamped his feet outside the police station, his heart and eyes filled with worry and concern for Feng Shuxian.
Little did he know that it was the woman he loved so deeply who almost made him commit perjury.
