Chapter 14 Clue Zhang Cuimei ran away?
The door of the interrogation room opened and closed again. After walking a distance away, Zhou Qiming looked at the confession with fingerprints and couldn't help but said excitedly: "You confessed right away, boss, you are amazing!"
Jiang Cheng said: "His psychological quality is not as good as his son's. In addition, we have already found the body and the crime scene, so he can't deny it. That's why he confessed everything after a trick."
"Anyway, at least the case is over." Zhou Qiming said briskly, "But speaking of which, the forensic team was quick this time, and the result came out so early... Wait, what is this?"
He opened the file bag and was stunned: "Huangning District Home Murder Case Investigation Report... No, Boss, why did you put last year's case information in there?"
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but ask, "Cai Limin is stupid, are you stupid too? How long has it been? Confirming the identity of the skeleton, extracting DNA, matching tests, so many processes, how can it be completed so quickly?"
Zhou Qiming realized it later: "Did the boss cheat him?"
Jiang Cheng said: "What else? Even if Captain Qin and his men are exhausted, there is no way they can produce a test report so quickly."
Zhou Qiming asked again: "What about the piece of clothing just now?"
Jiang Cheng said: "The clothing fragments are real, but as for whether there is any DNA residue on them, I don't know."
Zhou Qiming reacted after a long while, shook his head, and said with a click of the tongue: "Boss, this is really amazing..."
Yue Lingchuan stood aside and never said a word. Zhou Qiming turned his head and saw Yue Lingchuan frowning slightly and reading the confession over and over again.
"What's wrong, boss? Is there something wrong?" he couldn't help but ask.
Yue Lingchuan said: "There is nothing wrong with the confession itself, but..."
He pointed at the words on the confession and shook his head: "I always feel that what Cai Limin said, that his wife has someone in her heart, is a little wrong."
Zhou Qiming asked: "What's wrong?"
Yue Lingchuan was silent for a while, then said, "They had been married for eight or nine years at that time. After such a long time, they had a child. Although their life was not so rich, it was also peaceful and stable. According to Cai Chengyong, Lu Xiuqin was also quite gentle and good at managing the household. The two had been together for so many years and had rarely quarreled... In this situation, would anyone really still be obsessed with their first love?"
Zhou Qiming was stunned for a moment and slowly fell into deep thought.
Yue Lingchuan added: "Moreover, Lv Xiuqin must love Cai Chengyong very much. In Cai Chengyong's heart, the role of mother obviously occupies a very important position. Otherwise, if the mother-son relationship is not close, then an insignificant person will just run away. He will not have such a strong sense of being abandoned, and even have a disgust for all women from then on.
"For people like this, I can understand that they still miss their first love because they couldn't get it when they were young, but I don't think they are obsessed with it, right?"
Zhou Qiming hesitated and said, "Boss, do you mean that Cai Limin is lying?"
Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, "It's not a lie. This first love may indeed exist, but it's not certain whether it is what Cai Limin said or believed."
Zhou Qiming hissed and grinned: "Isn't this all a misunderstanding in the end? Then this..."
If things were not what Cai Limin thought, if it was really just a misunderstanding, then the many lives lost as a result...
Yue Lingchuan put the information together, raised his eyes and said, "Whether it is true or not, we have to check it out first. Caipo Village may not know much about this matter, so let's go to Lujia Village and ask Lu Xiuqin's family and her friends when she was young."
Zhou Qiming stretched and said, "I don't have much time recently. I'll wait until I finish Cai Chengyong's case."
He looked at Yue Lingchuan and suddenly couldn't help but smile. Yue Lingchuan looked at him strangely: "What are you laughing at?"
Zhou Qiming chuckled and said, "I was just thinking about how the boss just said that he only cared about who the murderer was and didn't care about the so-called truth, but in the end..."
He clicked his tongue twice and shook his head.
The case can indeed end here. After all, the evidence is conclusive and the murderer has confessed. It doesn't seem to be that important what happened back then.
Yue Lingchuan glanced at him and raised his eyebrows: "Why, you don't want to check?"
"Where?" Zhou Qiming said, "I also want to know what happened back then."
"But speaking of it, since Cai Liming has confessed, why don't we go and interrogate Cai Chengyong?" Zhou Qiming said again.
Yue Lingchuan shook his head: "No. Cai Chengyong is not like Cai Limin. He is cautious and meticulous. He won't speak easily unless we find more clear evidence."
"This incident can only serve as a breakthrough point to get him to talk at a critical moment. It's a bit difficult to rely on this to make him confess."
Zhou Qiming frowned: "Aren't we back to square one after all this? We still have to find the crime scene. But after running around all day, we haven't found any clues."
"How can it be so easy to handle a case? If it were so easy, there wouldn't be so many people committing crimes in the world." Yue Lingchuan said, "There was a guy today. I felt that he must know something, but he didn't tell the truth. Let's see if he will contact us later. If not, I will go check it out tomorrow."
Zhou Qiming also said, "Okay, then I'll ask Jiang Cheng to check again to see if Cai Chengyong has any close friends or places he often goes to. I'll also ask around at the factory where he works to see if I can get any clues."
After discussing it, the group returned to the office. While handling the paperwork for Cai Liming's case, he was waiting absent-mindedly.
I waited and waited, until it was almost time to get off work, but there was still no news.
Yue Lingchuan threw his phone aside, stood up from his workstation, and called out to everyone: "Okay, everyone go back home early to rest today and get enough rest. Tomorrow -"
Before he could finish his words, the sound of a cell phone ringing rang in the office. Yue Lingchuan was stunned at first, then he took a step forward and grabbed the phone:
"Hello." He spoke in a deep voice. The others in the office looked at each other and hurried over.
"Hello? Is this Officer Yue?"
A distorted voice sounded in his ears. Yue Lingchuan's eyes darkened and he called out his name: "Ma Laizi."
"Hey, hey, it's me, it's me, officer, you have a good memory." The person on the other end of the phone laughed flatteringly. Yue Lingchuan didn't waste any time talking to him and asked directly: "What's the matter with the call?"
"Well..." The man on the other end smiled awkwardly, then asked cautiously, "Comrade police officer, I just want to ask... Is the 2,000 yuan bonus you mentioned before still valid?"
Upon hearing this, Yue Lingchuan slowly stood up straight, looked at the people who were surrounding him in various strange postures, and said, "That depends on whether the information you provided is true. If it is true, the bonus will count."
Ma Laizi was silent for a while before he said, "Comrade police officer, this... I'm not sure if it's true, but I feel like it should be correct."
Yue Lingchuan supported himself on the table with one hand: "You tell us, we will judge whether it is true or false."
Ma Laizi lowered his voice and said, "Police comrade, I'm telling you, Cai Chengyong is having an affair with widow Zhang from our village!"
Yue Lingchuan and Jiang Cheng looked at each other and asked, "Who is Widow Zhang?"
"She is the wife of Cai Fushun from our village. She is of the same generation as me. Cai Fushun's parents died early, and they found a wife for him before they died. But within two years, Cai Fushun accidentally fell off the mountain and died! There were no children in the family, so Zhang Cuimei was left as a widow."
Yue Lingchuan asked: "How long has Cai Fushun been dead?"
Ma Laizi thought for a moment and said, "I guess... it's been about seven or eight years."
Yue Lingchuan: "You said Cai Chengyong and Zhang Cuimei were having an affair. Did you see it?"
Ma Laizi hesitated: "I think... I saw it."
Yue Lingchuan frowned: "What do you mean by should? Don't you know whether you saw it or not? Explain it in detail what happened."
Ma Laizi: "Hey, it's like this, police comrade. It was the Qingming Festival two years ago. Didn't Cai Limin and his father come back to worship their ancestors? After worshiping their ancestors, they stayed at home for the night. As a result, that night I saw a man walk into Zhang Cuimei's yard. I was curious, so I went outside the wall and listened for a while, and I heard them flirting. That voice was definitely Cai Chengyong."
Yue Lingchuan: "Are you sure you heard it right?"
Ma Laizi said, "I also suspected that I heard it wrong. After all, Cai Chengyong has only been home a few times since he was a child. How could he have hooked up with Zhang Cuimei? I was curious! I got up early the next day and took the opportunity to talk to Cai Chengyong. I can guarantee that the voice was exactly the same as the one I heard the night before! And the figure, tall and big, even though it was at night, I could recognize it!"
Yue Lingchuan pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked, "So why did you go to Zhang Cuimei's house that night?"
Ma Laizi stopped talking immediately.
Yue Lingchuan stretched out his voice: "Hmm?"
"I'll tell you!" Ma Laizi said hurriedly, his voice hesitant: "That's right, that, that Zhang Cuimei's husband is gone... I, I don't have a wife either, I, I and Zhang Cuimei, just, just... we'll be together for a while..."
He quickly assured her, "But don't worry, police officer. I didn't solicit her, nor did I force her or anything like that. We were both willing... Yes! We were both willing!"
Zhou Qiming was listening at the side and couldn't help but rolling his eyes. Yue Lingchuan said: "As long as you don't break the law, I don't care about other things."
He asked again: "Where is Zhang Cuimei now?"
"Oh, her." Ma Laizi said, "She ran away."
"What?" Yue Lingchuan's voice suddenly became louder, and Zhou Qiming's eyes widened: "Run away?"
Running away again?
