Shenjia Village!
Inside the bedroom on the second floor of village chief Wu Liqun's house.
Shen Ting surveyed the scene and made a brief summary:
"It can now be confirmed that there are at least two suspects who directly carried out the attack."
There might be accomplices keeping watch outside, and if those are included, the number could be even greater.
The suspect likely believed that Zhao Huimei was not at home on the night of the incident, and therefore did not take any precautions against her during the crime.
Furthermore, the murderer had a deep understanding of the village chief's house structure, daily habits, and even details such as selling shrimp and drinking alcohol the previous night.
The murderer is most likely an acquaintance from the village.
Currently, there are two motives that are relatively likely to be identified.
One is theft for financial gain.
One reason was to get revenge on Wu Liqun and teach him a lesson.
Both of these motives can explain some of the suspicious points in the bedroom.
If the murderer's motive was theft, it's possible that he woke up Wu Liqun and Zhao Huimei while ransacking the place.
Wu Liqun and the person who was closest to him started fighting.
Zhao Huimei lunged at the other person with flat feet.
If the murderer's motive was to teach Wu Liqun a lesson.
During the crime, the person with flat feet should have been the one controlling Wu Liqun, while the person with normal feet did the work.
But the two didn't expect Zhao Huimei to be there, and the noise they made woke her up.
She lunged at her husband's flat feet, which were controlling him.
Both motives are plausible.
In short!
The two suspects committed the crime on Wu Liqun's side, which woke Zhao Huimei.
She turned on the lamp, grabbed the weapon from the bedside table, lunged at the man with flat feet, and slammed him against the glass door of the wardrobe.
A drunken Wu Liqun used the lamp on his side to retaliate against the suspect who was in good health.
The two sides wrestled in this confined space.
The two suspects may not have been wearing masks.
Or, during the scuffle, the mask came off.
In short, their faces were seen after the lights were turned on.
Because they were acquaintances, their identities were recognized.
Therefore, they decided to go all the way and kill the witnesses to silence them.
While in bed, Wu Liqun was repeatedly struck on the head with a weapon by the suspect.
Finally, his body gave way, and he slid off the bed to the floor.
The suspect with flat feet was knocked to the ground and then wrestled with Zhao Huimei on the floor at the foot of the bed.
He may have used a sharp weapon he was carrying, or he may have stolen Zhao Huimei's tools.
In short, Zhao Huimei was stabbed multiple times in the chest and abdomen, ultimately leading to her death.
Afterwards, out of guilt, he covered Zhao Huimei's body with a quilt.
They then used clothes from the house to wipe away the bloodstains.
Obviously!
The murderer is either experienced in committing crimes or has a prior criminal record.
Or perhaps they did a lot of research before committing the crime.
Therefore, they knew details such as wearing shoe covers and wiping away bloodstains.
As for other characteristics of the two murderers, both of them wore size 43 shoes.
Height between 168 and 175 cm.
The person has flat feet, is slightly overweight, and weighs around 160 pounds.
The other person has normal feet, is neither fat nor thin, and is quite capable.
That's about all the basic information.
Guan Guandu and Zheng Yuanqiao both nodded:
"It's very detailed."
"There's quite a lot of information."
Shen Ting continued:
"Next, we need to determine the direction of our investigation."
There are currently two confirmed directions.
One of the things we're doing right now is surveying the site.
Details such as autopsy, identification of the murder weapon, and confirmation of the time of death will still require some time.
It is worth mentioning that the two victims and the suspect engaged in a rather intense struggle.
The killer's skin tissue or clothing fibers may remain under their fingernails.
This needs to be investigated thoroughly.
The murder weapon and the tools Zhao Huimei grabbed from the table were not found at the scene.
Have the officers search the surrounding area thoroughly.
The suspect committed the murder accidentally, without any prior warning, and may have been in a panic, discarding the murder weapon nearby.
If we can find the murder weapon and extract its fingerprints, the subsequent investigation will be much simpler.
Although it sounds foolish to discard the murder weapon directly around the murder scene.
However, in practice, there are indeed murderers, and a large proportion of them, who do do this.
Especially perpetrators of crimes of passion.
Or, like in this case, a murderer who didn't intend to kill but ended up killing someone.
They will be more nervous and panicked than a premeditated murderer.
Making decisions based on emotions rather than reason.
"The second direction is social relations investigation."
The murderer and the victim must have been very close.
This direction should yield some results.
Of particular note are the people who attended the banquet last night.
And people who pass by the door during the banquet.
Only they knew that Wu Liqun had been drinking and that his family had just sold shrimp and had a considerable amount of cash.
Furthermore, it is also important to pay attention to whether Zhao Huimei went to other places after the gathering, and especially who she met.
Why was the suspect not on guard against Zhao Huimei when committing the crime?
This is a very important point and needs to be explained clearly.
Guan Guandu and Zheng Yuanqiao nodded again:
"We've noted down all these key points."
This will be relayed to the police officers so they can focus on this issue.
"These directions are not particularly difficult to handle."
This is a fairly standard investigation approach. You can rest assured, Team Leader Shen, that it won't go wrong if you leave it to us.
Shen Ting and the two discussed some more details, and after taking another look around the scene without finding anything further, they decided to go to the Chaoyang Investigation Bureau to wait for the follow-up results.
Subsequent physical evidence identification, forensic autopsy, questioning of suspects, etc., will all be conducted at the Chaoyang Investigation Bureau.
