Zheng Qiuyu died, but the people in the Zheng family were still alive, and they said that Zheng Qiuyu was married.
What on earth was going on? They were all confused and had to figure it out.
Okay, that’s the final word.
Then, Lu Xiangxiang found himself in the same group with Zhou Ziheng again.
Looking at the man in front of her, she felt very conflicted.
"What's wrong? Why aren't you following?" he said to her.
She came to her senses and immediately followed suit.
Chen Meili has already given them the address of the Zheng family, so they just need to go there.
When they arrived, only Zheng's mother was at home. She was still pasting matchboxes. When she saw two people in police uniforms coming to find them, her heart skipped a beat.
"Who are you looking for?"
"There is something you need to investigate."
"What's the matter? We are good citizens and never break the law." Zheng's mother shook her head to refuse, and closed the door, not intending to let them in.
Zhou Ziheng's foot got stuck in the crack of the door. Mother Zheng couldn't close the door, so she could only look at Zhou Ziheng angrily: "Comrade Public Security, what are you doing?"
"We found a female corpse by the river. We've already determined that it belongs to your daughter, Zheng Qiuyu. Please return and accept investigation."
Mother Zheng's face turned pale, and the next second she burst into tears, crying so hard that tears welled up in her eyes.
"My daughter, my daughter, how could she die?"
"Comrades from Public Security, how did you find my daughter? Wuuuu, how could she be dead? She was fine before she got married." She cried out of breath.
Lu Xiangxiang frowned when he saw this. Could it be that they really didn't know?
Zhou Ziheng said indifferently: "Now you come back with us to investigate. Where are your husband and children?"
Zheng's mother cooperated with them and took them to find her husband, two sons, daughter, youngest son, etc. The Zheng family had quite a lot of children, which was also a feature of this era. It was normal to have so many children. In rural areas, some people could keep eight or nine of their more than ten children, and having five or six was basically the standard.
She was not surprised.
It was two hours later when they brought them back to the police station. They were taken to the interrogation room for questioning. An hour later, several people appeared in the office and looked at the interrogation materials.
"Damn, the Zheng family said they arranged a marriage for their daughter. The other party gave them 400 yuan, and they married the child off. After that, there was no news of their daughter. They thought their daughter was living well over there, but who knew that she was dismembered and thrown into the river."
"Yes, that's what they all said. If it's true, then damn it! Selling their daughter to a remote mountain village for 400 yuan and letting her become a shared wife for someone else's family, is this something they could do?"
"Yeah, selling her daughter to the mountains. Who could do such a thing? That's her daughter. Her family isn't so poor that they can't survive."
Several people started chattering and cursing. Lu Xiangxiang was also very angry. She looked at Zhou Ziheng who was standing beside her. Zhou Ziheng was rubbing the documents at this time. His eyes were deep and he looked at the documents in his hand seriously. He looked so handsome.
He likes to tap the table when he is thinking, with his long slender hands tapping on the table.
As if he noticed someone was looking at him, he raised his head and saw Lu Xiangxiang looking at him, "What's wrong?"
"What about Zhang Zhiyong and the others' confession materials?"
"Please take a look at the information." Zhou Ziheng handed her the information in his hand, and several people gathered together to read it.
About ten minutes later, Zhou Ziheng asked, "What do you think? I want your opinions."
"Their confessions are pretty much the same."
"Yes, their confessions are all similar."
"There are both witnesses and physical evidence. Could it be that Zheng Qiuyu's matter has nothing to do with them?"
Lu Tiezhu, Yan Zhengyi and Zhang Mingwei were thinking. Lu Xiangxiang opened her mouth to say something, but Zhou Ziheng grabbed her hand and shook his head at her.
She was stunned. What...what did Zhou Ziheng mean?
But she didn't say much.
"I always feel that their confessions are too perfect."
"Yes, how can there be such a perfect confession? It matches the Zheng family's confession."
"Something's wrong." The three of them finally understood and turned around and said.
Zhou Ziheng nodded: "Yes, their confessions are the same. The students' confessions are that they went out for fun that day and then went home.
As for the Zheng family, they sold their daughter as soon as she returned home and married her to a brother in the mountains. When asked where the brother was, they said he was in a mountain village a thousand kilometers away.
"Who would be willing to marry their daughter off so far away these days? If they were selling her, that would make sense, but the bride price was very high. Someone who doesn't treat their daughter as a human being would certainly sell her off."
"Alas, Zheng Qiuyu is so pitiful." Several people continued to sigh.
"But there are a few contradictions, haven't you noticed?" Zhou Ziheng pointed at the table.
Several people thought about it again, and Lu Xiangxiang also lowered his head to think.
"Justice, tell me what you think."
"I think their confessions are too perfect. My intuition tells me that this matter is related to them." Yan Zhengyi said, putting away the smile on his face.
"I think so too. It's hard to say whether the brothers really exist or not."
"There is another point that I care about," said Lu Tiezhu.
Hearing his words, several people looked at him, and Lu Tiezhu pointed at Zhang Zhiyong's name.
"I know Zhang Zhiyong, Shi Xingyi, and Jiang Wenming. Their families all work in the government compound. They're usually annoying, but due to their father's power, few people dare to approach them. Zhang Zhiyong was famous in the compound for breaking someone's leg. My first impression is that there's something fishy about this guy."
"If that's the case, it means they were multiple perpetrators, and the Zheng family silenced them."
"It was a crime committed by multiple people. Judging from the torn condition of Zheng Qiuyu's lower body, it wasn't just one person who did these things to her." Lu Xiangxiang suddenly said.
Several people also guessed it in this speculation.
"brute."
"Scum."
"The scum of society."
The voices of several people were a bit indignant and angry.
"You have summarized it very well. The next direction of investigation is to find out whether the Zheng family received any unexpected wealth and whether someone really bought Zheng Qiuyu. We also need to focus on interrogating Zhang Zhiyong and the others. They are major suspects in the crime and we cannot let them go." After hearing his words, everyone said they understood.
Zhou Ziheng glanced down at the time. It was already half past three. He said to Lu Xiangxiang, "Come with me."
She didn't understand what was going on, so Zhou Ziheng took her to the parking lot of the police station. In the parking lot, there were two jeeps for public use, besides the bicycles used by everyone at work.
He took the key out of his pocket and looked at someone who was still standing outside in a daze, "Leaving, not picking up your grandma?"
