Soon, the police took Qi Shengzhi back to the police station.
Fingerprint identification was completed shortly afterwards, confirming that the fingerprints collected from Zhou Xiaoxiao were from Qi Shengzhi.
The interrogation begins!
Outside the interrogation room, Sun Dehua looked at Shen Ting and said:
"Team Leader Shen, according to our team's investigation, Qi Shengzhi had a record of illegally selling rare earths in his early years.
It wasn't that strict at the time, and he had a good relationship with the leader at the time, so they let him off.
After the group informed the public, he was placed in a sinecure.
"That is to say, the probability of Qi Shengzhi being involved in this case is very high?"
Shen Ting frowned slightly and looked at Qi Shengzhi in the interrogation room.
"Team Leader Shen, did you find anything unusual?"
Sun Dehua was curious when he saw this.
“It’s hard to say!
All I can say is that Qi Shengzhi wasn't the collaborator Wang Fuzhong frequently visited Shizhong Town to meet before he was killed."
"Uh, how is this determined?"
"Through human body measurements..."
Chen Ting sent the image of the partner that Kiko found in the repaired surveillance to Sun Dehua.
And told him the whole story.
Sun Dehua quickly watched the video and looked surprised:
"Wang Fuzhong went all the way to Shizhong Town. Is this the person he wanted to meet?
But his physical characteristics don’t match Qi Shengzhi’s?
That……"
Sun Dehua frowned. If this were the case, the best guess would be:
The people in the video are collaborators with Wang Fuzhong and Qi Shengzhi.
This man was killed by Qi Shengzhi in the factory.
Qi Shengzhi became the biggest beneficiary.
“Team Leader Shen, can you confirm this person’s identity through these images?
Or confirm whether he is the deceased in the mining factory area?"
Shen Ting shook his head directly:
“It’s difficult!
The physical features of the people in this image are inherently partial.
The physical characteristics of the deceased in the mining factory area can be obtained through blood splatter.
There is no way to match the two.
It would be much simpler if there was a body, but unfortunately we didn't find it.
All I can do now is recognize the person in the video if I see their photo or in person, but that’s it.”
Sun Dehua nodded:
"Now, the core focus obviously still has to be on Qi Shengzhi.
If he was also involved in the rare earth resale, he would have been in frequent contact with Wang Fuzhong and the deceased in the mining area, and he would have revealed some clues.
Shen Ting nodded and uploaded all of Qi Shengzhi's personal information to the case-solving group.
In the interrogation room, the interrogator also began to interrogate Qi Shengzhi.
Qi Shengzhi is forty-nine years old and looks quite young, after all, he works in an office all year round.
There was obvious panic on his face, perhaps because he was too frightened after being caught and realizing his actions had been exposed.
Or is it just a natural fear of the police?
In short, during the entire interrogation process, Qi Shengzhi insisted on not pleading guilty.
He insisted that he had never killed anyone and had never been involved in the resale of rare earths.
As for why his hair and fingerprints appeared on the deceased Zhou Xiaoxiao, he said he didn't know and didn't know Zhou Xiaoxiao at all.
About half an hour later, the interrogator left the interrogation room and shook his head towards Shen Ting in disappointment:
"no!
Qi Shengzhi is quite stubborn, so I really can't get anything out of him."
Just at this time, the police officers who were searching Qi Shengzhi's residence and workplace also called.
They also found no physical evidence in the case.
Several mobile phones were found in the house, but they were all old models. After inspection, it was confirmed that they had nothing to do with this case.
No fingerprints, hair, etc. of the victim were found in the car, nor were there any bloodstains.
No physical evidence related to rare earth resale was found at the office.
The only discovery was that Qi Shengzhi's colleagues said that because this guy had a sinecure, he was often late or left early, and even skipped work frequently.
This was verified after checking the company's monitoring.
Qi Shengzhi said that he always went there to hang out with his bad friends.
The key point is!
Twenty-two days ago, that was the time when Wang Fuzhong took leave to trade rare earths.
Eighteen days ago, Zhou Xiaoxiao was called to Guojiadian.
Qi Shengzhi was indeed not in the class at these two key points:
Twenty-two days ago, I skipped work for one day;
But eighteen days ago, he left early around four in the afternoon.
Qi Shengzhi recalled that he couldn't quite remember what he was doing at the time. He only said that he might have gone fishing or maybe he was resting at home...
"Judging from the timing, Qi Shengzhi is a big suspect!"
Sun Dehua said, and Shen Ting nodded.
At this time, someone in the crime-solving group also spoke up.
Kiko: "There's nothing suspicious about Qi Shengzhi's call records.
He has not contacted Wang Fuzhong.
However, the chat content showed that when he was chatting with his friends, he did miss the quick money he made from selling rare earths.
However, there was nothing unusual in his bank statements.
There are no gambling debts either.
The economic situation is quite good, so there's no need to risk killing someone just for the money."
Captain Guan: “So, the current situation is that the evidence on Zhou Xiaoxiao points to Qi Shengzhi, a rare earth practitioner, but he has not pleaded guilty.
Some of the clues obtained from the investigation also pointed to him, such as the commuting records that were highly consistent with the time of the crime.
But there are also several doubts.
For example, there was no need for Qi Shengzhi to take the risk of killing someone.
Aside from Zhou Xiaoxiao, there is no evidence of his contact with Wang Fuzhong and others."
Maori Kogoro: "Although Qi Shengzhi is the most suspected now, even if we reluctantly identify him as the murderer, it probably won't be of any use.
Although hair and fingerprints are very effective evidence, they can be forged.
If he can't find any other clues, he can probably get away with it in court by just accusing him of forgery."
That said, more evidence is needed now!
Otherwise, Qi Shengzhi will be convicted!
Otherwise, point to other suspects?
After much thought, Shen Ting still focused on the land temple where the body was buried...
