Chapter 77 First Clues



Yang Bairong immediately followed suit with his flattery, and the others echoed his sentiments.

"That's very possible!"

"No wonder we haven't heard from Woman A for so long; we were looking in the wrong direction!"

"Do you remember, there was another point of doubt?" Qin Wen, as a forensic pathologist in the trace evidence department, always had a calm and steady mind.

"Wasn't there a hatchback near the car that burned down?"

"Yes, there was a Volkswagen hatchback!" Ma Jie had used his keen eyesight to his fullest extent back then, and he still remembers it vividly.

"Yes, a total of 1,471 vehicles of the same model passed through this section of road before and after the incident!"

This workload is too large; it's impossible for the few dozen people in the Anding Division to extract any information from it.

Moreover, there's the possibility of a car using a fake license plate!

Since the murderer had already been identified as Zhao Ranran, the An Ding Division did not waste police resources in this direction.

"Ma Jie, go to the archives department right now to retrieve the investigation report from that time, and see if any of these more than a thousand vehicles are registered under the names of Ji Ri, Yuan Yang, or Zhen Chang!"

"Mission accomplished!"

Having clarified this step, Li Nan then asked, "Forensic Doctor Qin, what are the DNA comparison results?"

After two days of effort, the Trace Removal Department has completed the comparison of these preserved tattoo fragments, and the results are as expected.

These tattoos all belong to the 17 victims!

"You beast! How could you be so cruel!"

"Why leave behind someone's tattoos after murdering and dismembering them?"

"Tattoos are considered unique personal marks. Could it be that they're meant to confuse right and wrong?"

Qin Wen continued her report, "We tested the soil residue outside the box and roughly estimated that it had been buried for over a year. We took soil samples from the site for comparison, which confirmed that the box had always been buried there and was not moved from elsewhere!"

"Half a fingerprint was extracted from the key in the electrical cabinet, and it matches perfectly with the half fingerprint found on the medicine bottle in Zhang Qiqi's case!"

Li Nan understood Qin Wen's implication: "Are you saying that this time, it's still possible that Peng Yuanyuan was framed?"

If that's the case, then the methods of this mastermind can indeed be described as extraordinary.

The mastermind behind this is so cunning and meticulous that they even spent so much time arranging this whole thing to frame Peng Yuanyuan. Just how deep is their hatred and resentment?

Recalling Gao Siming's selfless act of saving him that day, recalling his tall figure under the ginkgo tree many years ago, and remembering Gao Siming who repeatedly pulled him back from the brink of bullying when he was a child!

It can't be him, it absolutely isn't him!

Rather than saying Peng Yuanyuan was framed, people are more willing to believe that Peng Yuanyuan is Woman A, one of the real culprits in the 0609 case!

Not only this lunchbox dismemberment case, but also the seemingly simpler Zhang Qiqi death case, it's hard to say that it was also the work of Peng Yuanyuan!

Although Li Nan had been reluctant to delve into this graphic case, now that he was thinking about it seriously, there seemed to be quite a few suspicious points in the case!

A bold idea popped into Li Nan's mind!

"A self-inflicted injury ruse!"

Li Nan asked, "Forensic Doctor Qin, did you determine Zhang Qiqi's exact time of death at the time?"

Qin Wen rolled her eyes at Li Nan, "Now you dare to talk about this case? The deceased has been boiled into a pot of porridge, how can we determine the exact time? We can only combine video surveillance and the food residue left in the bathtub to roughly judge that Zhang Qiqi died between 2:30 pm and 6:30 pm that day."

"Isn't there a way to be more precise?"

"If you're so good, then you do it!"

Li Nan quickly tried to appease Qin Wen, "Forensic Doctor Qin, please calm down, I was just asking casually!"

Yang Bairong and Li Na tactfully turned away, their faces showing suppressed laughter.

Li Nan moved closer to Qin Wen and whispered, "Honey, don't get angry. I'll give you a good massage tonight!"

"Nothing less than three seconds!"

"Alright, ten minutes this time!"

Having finally managed to appease the tigress, Ma Jie returned with the vehicle information from that time.

Ma Jie, unaware of what had just happened, broke the awkward silence.

"Master Ke, we found it. There was indeed a car registered under Zhenchang's name at the time!"

Li Nan took the report, and Ma Jie continued, "I just went to the technical department and had Xiao Wang check on the other aspects of this vehicle. Guess what?"

Everyone rolled their eyes at Ma Jie, and Li Na muttered under her breath, "How come he got infected after just one visit to Xiao Wang's place?"

Seeing that no one paid any attention to him, Ma Jie gave an awkward smile and said, "Hehe, okay, I'll continue."

This hatchback has been the property of Zhenchang Company since its purchase.

Around 21 years ago, Zhenxing and Yuanyang were sold off by Peng Yuanyuan one after another. During the transfer of ownership, the actual right to use this car became shrouded in mystery.

However, none of these are the problems. The key issue is that in 2023, due to a traffic accident, the car was severely damaged and had to be scrapped.

Now, the suspected vehicle has been taken to some metal recycling plant and has been processed into something unknown.

"Although this lead has gone cold, the existing information at least proves that this car, which originally belonged to Zhenchang, is definitely related to Peng Yuanyuan!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, including Qin Wen.

In fact, Qin Wen's opinion that Peng Yuanyuan might still be framed was entirely based on a fair perspective.

If it were a matter of personal motives, Qin Wen would have loved for this imagined enemy to be the murderer.

As for linking it to Gao Siming, how could Qin Wen possibly do that!

Gao Siming remains Qin Wen's only white moonlight to this day.

Marrying Li Nan was purely accidental; her true love was Gao Siming!

It's not difficult for a forensic pathologist to find a way to avoid getting pregnant.

However, I haven't been feeling well lately!

Qin Wen thought to herself, and couldn't help but hesitate.

[If, just if, I were pregnant with Li Nan's child, if, just if...]
