Chapter 53 Hidden in the Changes



You have to ask the system!

If the time required to solve the case as stipulated by the system was not exceptionally long, a full six days, Shen Ting would definitely not have thought so much.

“It’s more of a gut feeling!”

Shen Ting made up an excuse and quickly changed the subject:

"Stop talking nonsense and discuss the current case!"

Tang Ren: "It's simple~~

Now that the case has changed from fraud to murder, the next step is naturally to go from finding the middleman to finding the murderer~~"

Kogoro Mori: “You could be more specific.

The murderer who killed Wang Fuzhong was either someone who cooperated with him to secretly sell rare earths, or a buyer of rare earths.

If we can find both, we will most likely find the murderer."

Guan Hongfeng: "There is another doubt, if Wang Fuzhong died more than 20 days ago.

Who was the person who used Wang Fuzhong's phone to contact Zhou Xiaoxiao and meet her at Guojia Store seventeen days ago?"

Chen Yi: “Probably the murderer.

As Wang Fuzhong's wife, Zhou Xiaoxiao may have known that Wang Fuzhong was illegally selling rare earths.

In this case, I am more inclined to believe that the murderer is Wang Fuzhong's collaborator rather than the buyer.

Because the buyer is only one party to the transaction and will not have a clear understanding of the situation of the seller's family.

There was no need for them to know whether Wang Fuzhong's wife knew the inside story.

On the contrary, as a collaborator, I had more contact with Wang Fuzhong.

Zhou Xiaoxiao might even know the other party's identity.

That's why the murderer wanted to invite him out, probably to silence him."

Qin Ming: "That's interesting.

If Zhou Xiaoxiao was also killed by the murderer, where would her body be?"

Qin Feng: "In this situation, the killer will usually kill the target directly at the chosen dumping site.

This will make it easier to dispose of the body later and reduce the risk of moving the body."

Hannibal: “The problem is, we’ve already checked out Guo’s store.

Couldn't find a suitable place to dispose of the body.

Did we miss something?

It’s unlikely!”

It's indeed unlikely!

It's normal if one person is missed.

It is almost impossible for a group of three to search the body and miss someone at the same time.

Shen Ting thought for a moment:

"Given the current situation, there are several ideas for finding the murderer.

First, check Wang Fuzhong’s collaborators.

Wang Fuzhong must have taken advantage of his position to get rare earths.

As long as we investigate the rare earth project that Wang Fuzhong is in charge of, we may be able to find out the source of his rare earths.

His collaborators are likely to play important roles in related rare earth projects.

Secondly!

Try to find buyers for rare earths.

The buyer must also know who Wang Fuzhong is collaborating with to resell rare earths.

However, there are almost no clues about the buyer now.

The only direction that can be checked is the transportation direction.

Because there are so many rare earths, vehicles are definitely needed to transport them out.

I can provide the surrounding road surveillance video.

The rare earths were most likely sold 21 days ago, so there must be surveillance footage that was not covered, and there is a high probability that the suspected vehicle was found.

Another direction of investigation is Zhou Xiaoxiao.

Since the murderer specifically called her out to kill her, Zhou Xiaoxiao might indeed know his identity.

Perhaps, we can search Zhou Xiaoxiao's daily belongings and try to find clues about the murderer.

Secondly, there is a high probability that Zhou Xiaoxiao has been killed, and where the body was dumped is a big question.

If we can find the place where the body was dumped, through the murder scene, Zhou Xiaoxiao's injuries, etc., we might be able to find clues pointing to the middleman.

only!

The most likely place where bodies were dumped is still Guojiadian.

We checked yesterday and found no suspicious locations.

Do you have any ideas?

Kira Yoshikage: “I just thought about it, and there is only one possibility.

When we investigated, we found that the condition of Guojiadian was indeed not suitable for disposing of the body.

But this is not necessarily the case when the murderer committed the crime.

In other words!

"If there's been any significant changes in Guojiadian recently, it's most likely the place where the bodies were dumped."

Jigsaw: “That makes sense.

When we searched for corpse dumping sites before, we mostly did it in the wild, and the natural environment in the wild is generally fixed.

The biggest difference in a village is that it is dominated by people, and its buildings, landscapes, etc. will all change.

The corpse is most likely hidden in the changes."

Shen Ting nodded and first shared the relevant information about the government department where Wang Fuzhong worked.

They also share road surveillance around the mining area.

After uploading this information to the crime-solving group, he looked at Sun Dehua and others in the tent.

He told them all the ideas that had just been discussed.

However, let them focus on checking the items in Zhou Xiaoxiao's daily life.

Also, recently, when chatting with your besties and family, have you mentioned friends who are close to Wang Fuzhong?

The recent "changes" in Guojiadian have naturally made it more convenient for police officers to investigate.

"no problem!

Don't worry, Team Leader Shen, we'll make arrangements right away."

"With so many lines of inquiry, there are bound to be new discoveries."

Sun Dehua and Yang Xianxing spoke excitedly at the same time and were about to go down to arrange the work.

At this moment, Shen Ting's cell phone rang suddenly.

He took out his cell phone and saw that it was a call from the director of the DNA laboratory.

"Hey, Director Ma, are there any results for the bloodstains in the factory area?"

“Got it!”

Director Ma's voice was clearly filled with surprise:

“The result was somewhat unexpected.

There was no DNA match between the bloodstains and Wang Fuzhong.

That is to say, the bloodstains in the factory area were not caused by Wang Fuzhong being attacked, as we previously speculated."
