Up to now, except for Zheng Can, Zheng Can's uncle and Zheng Yanwu, all other verifiable clues have been verified.
The shareholders together with Zheng Yanwu were Liu Weiguo, Sun Yaowu, Li Yonghong, Zhai Xinghua and Wang Zhenhua, all men. After Zheng Yanwu sold his shares, the five of them used their own money to buy some of them, and there was no problem on the books.
Now, Liu Weiguo has passed away. He was originally the new largest shareholder, but after his death, the shares were divided among his sons and nephews. These people are not good people, and many of them have almost lost everything.
Although the other four people are still alive, three of them have immigrated. They retained some of their shares and sold some.
The only one who is in China is Wang Zhenhua, and he is not local. This person has also sold a lot of his shares.
Currently, there are as many as 17 people who own more than 1% of the company's shares, and there are dozens of small shareholders scattered around. Given the company's current situation, no one is able to unite as one.
The police also contacted Wang Zhenhua, who did not have a deep understanding of Zheng Yanwu's original affairs.
The people who know the most about this case are the seven or eight police officers who went to the scene to investigate. In those days, the approval of fire-fighting types was all done by the Public Security Bureau, so there was no such fire responsibility determination as we have today, and the police were responsible for the materials on the scene.
Times have changed. If it were now, such a thing would not have happened, but before 1995, many things did not seem rigorous enough now.
The police who still remembered the scene said that there was indeed a gas leak. Gas was still a rare commodity at that time. It was called gas, but it was actually similar to the liquefied gas cylinders of today, except that Zheng Yanwu had several tanks at home.
Take methane as an example, the calorific value of 1 kg of methane is equivalent to 13 kg of TNT. Although the heat of methane combustion cannot explode at this ratio, the power of several tanks of liquefied gas is terrifying.
There was basically nothing to see at the scene.
There were more than one round of explosions at the scene. No one caught up with the first wave, but when we got there, we saw a raging fire, and then everyone tried to find a way to put it out.
This was a mountain village, and there were no fire hydrants. The fire trucks of that era were also very poor and could not put out the fire at all. Later, the high temperature may have fried several tanks, and then a second round of fire occurred, and the house, which was not very strong to begin with, collapsed completely.
In this situation, it was a bit difficult to investigate the scene given the technical conditions at the time. The province even sent people to investigate, and it was finally determined that a tank had leaked, then exploded and caught fire.
Two people were confirmed dead at the scene, and there were some scattered bodies... According to the statement taken by Zheng Yanwu afterwards, Zheng Yanwu's family was at home at the time, and they all died at once.
After reading this, Bai Song had a deeper understanding that Zheng Can might be Zheng Yanwu's child. But at the same time, he also understood that Zheng Can's uncle had a high probability of knowing something. Because this was a gas problem, not an ordinary fire caused by wood ignition, so basically there was no such thing as someone rescuing people after the fire.
Bai Song analyzed that there are two possibilities. One is that Zheng Can's uncle is the housekeeper of Zheng Yanwu's family. He was playing with the young master outside the house when the crime happened, and he escaped. But this situation is difficult to explain, because it is impossible for the housekeeper not to look for Zheng Yanwu.
The second possibility is that Zheng Can’s uncle knew in advance that such a tragedy would happen, but he was unable to stop it or did not dare to stop it, so he rescued the person for other purposes.
As for other bad intentions, it is hard to speculate.
Nowadays, cities have strict emergency management and alarm mechanisms for pipeline gas, which is very safe. Many places have banned the private transportation and sale of liquefied petroleum gas cylinders, but in that era, the situation was completely different.
Through the review of the murders, eight cases that may be related have been discovered.
Three of them were related to people from the printing and dyeing company. In 1997, an ordinary employee of the printing and dyeing company was killed in a car accident on his way home. In that era when there were not many cars, such a case would definitely require extra attention.
In 1999, an operational accident occurred at a printing and dyeing company, resulting in the leakage of dozens of kilograms of highly toxic compounds. One worker died and four workers were left with permanent sequelae.
In 2001, the son of Sun Yaowu, one of the three shareholders who went abroad, was stabbed to death after an argument in a bar in Changhe City. The whereabouts of the murderer is unknown.
Of these three cases, the first driver has been dealt with, the person responsible for the second has been punished, and the outcome of the third is unknown.
In addition, five cases remain unsolved.
The first and second incidents occurred in 1995, when people from two towns under Changhe City were killed in the same way within one day of each other. After investigation, it was found that the two men had no enemies and nothing in common. They were both ordinary small bosses. After investigation, it was found that the two men had not offended the same people.
The third case occurred in 2008, which is the most recent one. The modus operandi is somewhat similar to the above two, and the suspect’s situation is still unknown.
The fourth case was a 2006 case in Zhangjia City. The cause of death was cyanide poisoning. The suspect was his friend and had been on the run for eight years.
The fifth case was a car accident in 1999. The owner of the car fled the scene and it is still unknown who did it. The reason why this case may be related is that the deceased was one of the partners of the printing and dyeing company. At that time, many people also paid attention to this case, but they were never found.
Bai Song and others conducted various correlation checks on each case, and these are the current situations.
In addition to these, we also discovered a murder case in Shuyang City that may be related to another solved murder case in Changhe City.
The modus operandi of these two cases were different and they did not occur in the same city, but the victims may have known each other. Through the combination of big data, it was found that the ex-wife of one of the victims was the sister-in-law of the other victim.
This discovery attracted the attention of Captain Zhong, because the original suspect had been shot and could not be interrogated, but the two cases were very relevant to each other.
It can be seen from here that Changhe City has put a lot of effort into this. In addition to the cases in the city, they have also retrieved many cases in other cities that may be related from the provincial database.
These cases have all gone through the first round of screening, otherwise it would be impossible for Bai Song and a few others to investigate them all.
All the data have been analyzed almost completely, and Bai Song and others are ready to go and have a formal talk with Zheng Can's uncle tomorrow, which is Wednesday.
