Chapter 195 The car owner was found!
She called for someone to come over excitedly.
"What's wrong?"
Quan Ruifeng came over immediately after hearing this.
"There's a cigarette butt here. It looks quite new and hasn't been exposed to the wind or the sun. It must have been lost in the past two days. And it's right next to the wheel tracks. It might have been lost by the murderer."
"Wasn't there a strong smell of cigarettes in our car? I guess the murderer smoked a cigarette and then threw the cigarette butt out of the car, and then he went to damage our car."
Xia Xian pointed it out to Quan Ruifeng and expressed her guess.
Her guess was correct, and the fact was indeed like this, but there was no evidence now, and it needed to be confirmed slowly.
“This is also a clue.”
Quan Ruifeng asked someone to come and collect the cigarette butt and make sure that there was no other evidence left nearby. Then everyone drove away.
Zhou Xingshi learned about the murder case only slowly, he only found out the next day, and he was so upset that he beat his chest and stamped his feet.
"If I had known, I would have gone hiking with you guys! Then I wouldn't have missed it!"
He is also a policeman. Even though he is currently on unpaid leave to go to school, he can naturally go back to the police station to help when he is free.
"Forget it. If you go, shouldn't Youyou come with us? She's pregnant now. How can she bear to see such bloody scenes?"
Xia Xian shook her head and said disapprovingly, what if the baby was frightened? Pregnant women need special protection in the first three months and the last three months. They are very fragile and if you are not careful, something bad will happen to the baby.
"Too."
Zhou Xingshi just remembered it and immediately stopped regretting it. Now Chen You must be the most important. But he didn't know that Chen You didn't care about these at all. She was very brave.
"If you don't need to be strong, how can you be my child? If you are scared by these things..."
Before she finished speaking, Zhou Xingshi quickly covered her mouth.
"Okay, okay. I know you're brave, but don't say anything. The child will be unhappy if he hears it."
Zhou Xingshi's Taoism is very serious and has many taboos.
"Yes, there are some things that cannot be said casually."
"Since you are not afraid of the smell of blood and the murderer has not been found yet, do you want Zhou Xingshi to go back to the Public Security Bureau and participate in this case?"
Xia Xian invited him, saying that this case was somewhat difficult and the investigation required manpower. It would be great if Zhou Xingshi could return to the Public Security Bureau.
Zhou Xingshi had indeed not been back to the Public Security Bureau for some time, so he looked at Shen You expectantly and conflictedly. He wanted to find the brutal murderer, but he was also a little worried about Shen You, after all, a pregnant woman needed company.
"You go ahead. I'm fine. I can move around freely. I don't need you to accompany me. Work is more important."
Shen You was speaking the truth, not angrily. She believed that work came first and other things could be put aside, so she fully supported Zhou Xingshi's work and hoped that he would fully support her in the future.
"Okay then, I'll join in too!"
Since his wife had spoken, Zhou Xingshi stopped hesitating and simply agreed.
The three of them went to the Public Security Bureau together. It would be best if they could find the person today. Otherwise, they would have to go back to school tomorrow and didn't know whether they should take two more days off.
Fortunately, as soon as the three arrived at the Public Security Bureau, they received good news.
"After investigation, we found that there are two car owners nearby with license plate number ending in 32. One lives at No. 103 Guxiang, South City, and the other lives at No. 352 Shuixie Street."
"Okay, I understand. I'll bring someone to your house to inquire later."
"Has anything been found on the arms and legs? What information can be confirmed so far?"
Quan Ruifeng nodded, then looked at the forensic doctor, waiting for her results.
"From the deceased's muscle tissue and bones, we can determine that the deceased is an adult male between 25 and 28 years old, between 1.7 and 1.75 meters tall, shoe size 43, and a burn scar on the back of his calf, which is in the form of a sheet..."
The forensic doctor provided a lot of detailed information, saying that the corpse can speak, even without a head.
"The arms and legs were separated from the body between 6:30 and 7:30 yesterday morning. Judging from the amount of blood loss, even if the deceased was alive before being dismembered, he would definitely not survive after being dismembered."
This information was very important to them. Quan Ruifeng and Xia Xian arrived at the foot of the mountain at around eight o'clock yesterday.
Judging from the time, it is very likely that the murderer dismembered the body at around 6 or 7 o'clock, threw the body parts away, buried the bloodstains, and then left in a hurry. All this could be done in about an hour.
Then he happened to meet Quan Ruifeng and Xia Xian who came here.
If the people in the car the two men met were not the murderer, then according to the time they went to the mountain, it was very likely that they would run into the murderer, so it was very necessary to find the two men.
If they are not murderers, they will be witnesses!
Quan Ruifeng and Xia Xian immediately recalled the scene in detail, trying to describe the characteristics of the two people and draw their self-portraits first.
After finishing these, several people immediately went to the home of the owner of the license plate number. Perhaps they would be able to recognize him when they saw him in person.
Quan Ruifeng, Xia Xian and Zhou Xingshi first went to No. 103 Guxiang, South City.
This place is about fifteen minutes' drive from the Public Security Bureau, which is not far. If the murderer is here, perhaps he was secretly observing the movements of the Public Security Bureau last night and made some preparations.
However, no matter what preparations they make, the police are determined to overcome all difficulties and solve the case!
The three of them arrived and started knocking on the door, but to their surprise, the person who opened the door was an old lady, who walked shakily and looked very old. Initial judgment showed that she was in her seventies or eighties, so she definitely could not be the one driving the car.
Xia Xian made a simple assessment and then she spoke first. She was a young girl and was naturally more approachable, so it was best for her to speak as it would easily lower people's guard.
"Hello, mother-in-law. We are from the police. My name is Xia Xian and they are my colleagues. Here are our IDs. Are you home alone today? We have something we want to discuss with you."
"Is it convenient for you now?"
Xia Xian asked gently, with a kind smile on her face.
"Oh, the police! But I haven't committed any crime, what do you want to know?"
The old woman didn't understand, but she still invited the three people into her home.
As the three of them walked in, they took the opportunity to observe and found a lot of clothes hanging in the yard. The old woman must not live alone, there were young people's clothes, and there were also wheel marks in the yard, but the car was not there now.
The three of them calmly withdrew their gazes, sat on the stools and had a friendly chat with the old woman.
"Mother-in-law, where are your family members? Where did they go? Do you live alone?"
"No, we are a family of six and we all live together. We are just out of town. The old man went out to play chess with someone, the son and his wife went back to their parents' home, and the grandchildren went out to play."
The old lady was very cooperative and answered in detail.
Xia Xian's eyes flashed when she heard this. The grandchildren just fit the description of the man and woman driving the car she saw yesterday! And judging from the age of the old lady, the grandchildren should be in their twenties.
"Grandma, how old are your grandchildren? Are they working?"
