Chapter 93: Blame
Ke Lu's heart is extremely twisted.
Perhaps it was due to genetic factors that he was filled with anger;
Perhaps because he was successfully brainwashed by his father, his judgment and cognition of his mother are basically wrong.
Yue Yuan interrupted him: "When Wu Jing was with you, she was beaten by Ke Zhigang day and night. Don't you feel sorry for her? She escaped. As a son, shouldn't you be happy for her?"
Ke Lu's countless resentments suddenly got stuck in his throat.
Yue Yuan's eyes were cold, and his words were powerful: "Wu Jing is your mother, but she is also a person! She was able to escape, forget the pain and start a new life, go to college, become a doctor, which one did not require her to work a hundred times harder? You only see that she has a high social status and a stable work and life now, but you have never thought about how much she has suffered. You say she is your mother, so you should do this and that, but have you ever thought about what you have done for her as her son?"
There was so much anger in his heart that Yue Yuan couldn't breathe.
Yue Yuan stood up suddenly, walked in front of Ke Lu, looked down at him, his eyes were like lightning and full of deterrence.
"If you still have a conscience, you would never condemn a poor mother who lost her daughter in this way in the interrogation room."
"If you had any compassion, you would never coldly say that she was dead but you were still alive when Wei Zeqing came to your door!"
"If you had never intended to harm anyone, you should have gone to her house to comfort her when you received the news of Wei Qiaozhen's death two years ago, instead of preserving the evidence and distancing yourself from the case."
At the end, Yue Yuan said word by word: "Ke Lu, if you really loved your mother, you would never stand by and watch her lose the daughter you had raised for 16 years, watch her come to the Criminal Investigation Team again and again to inquire about the progress of the case, and watch her desperately hunt for the murderer!"
Ke Lu's eyes gradually became fierce, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I love her! But I also hate her! The way she is now is completely a punishment from God, and she deserves everything!"
Yue Yuan raised his right hand and slapped the table hard.
Bang!
A huge, dull sound echoed in the interrogation room.
Ke Lu was frightened by the slap.
Gong Weiguo, who was in charge of taking the statement, was also startled. He stopped writing and looked at Yue Yuan.
Yue Yuan’s nickname was “Thunder God” and his voice in the interrogation room was like a loud bell, which was very shocking.
Any suspect who is a little timid would be frightened by him.
Since his promotion, Yue Yuan rarely interrogated prisoners personally. When I clashed with Ke Lu today, I was really provoked by him.
Yue Yuan yelled, "Nonsense! This is totally inhumane!"
Just at this moment, Xia Mufan, who had just finished interrogating Cui Lebang, pushed the door open and was hurt by Yue Yuan's loud voice.
"You are unworthy of being my son!"
"Your mother carried you for ten months, gave birth to you, raised you for four years, and protected you like her own precious baby. This is a favor!"
"How do you repay the favor?"
"Slandering, insulting, cursing, showing no emotion towards her suffering, only emphasizing their own feelings."
"Just like your father Ke Zhigang, who only knows how to bully the weak and beat his wife and children under the pretext of being drunk, you are an incompetent, selfish, vicious, dirty villain who only knows how to hide in the dark and hurt others!"
"Wei Qiaozhen is dead. Yes, her life ended at the age of sixteen. But she had enjoyed the love of her parents, felt the beauty of the world, and returned warmth to her parents and kindness to the world. Although she is dead, she is like a shooting star across the sky, and will be remembered by everyone who sees her."
"You're still alive. That's right, but it's a pity that you've lived to the age of twenty-five, but your heart is filled with only anger, resentment, and calculation. If you live like this, what's the difference between you and a rat in the gutter? You've lived in vain!"
Yue Yuan's eyes were wide open, his face was as gloomy as water, and he mercilessly tore open Ke Lu's dirty heart and exposed it to the sun.
It was the first time that Ke Lu was scolded so harshly. He felt as if a whip was lashing his soul fiercely. He was shaking with pain and sat in the chair in a daze, unable to move at all.
Xia Mufan walked up to Yue Yuan and whispered something in his ear.
Yue Yuan's eyebrows were twisted into a line.
After a while, Yue Yuan sat back at the table, calmed down, and looked at his watch: "There are still 20 hours left until the 24th hour. When you go down, think carefully about what you want to report to our police."
After saying that, Yue Yuan waved his hand, without even looking at Ke Lu, and stood up and left the interrogation room.
Xia Mufan signaled Gong Weiguo to complete the subsequent procedures and walked out immediately afterwards.
The two of them walked into Yue Yuan's office one after the other in silence.
As soon as he entered the room, Yue Yuan closed the door and slapped the table again: "Damn it! Cui Lebang didn't recognize him?"
Xia Mufan's face was also very solemn: "Yes, Ke Lu has been communicating with Cui Lebang under the pen name Anjing. Cui Lebang said that he always thought the other party was a girl, and called her Jingjing in the letter."
Yue Yuan pondered for a moment: "Could it be that we have a preconceived notion? Is it possible that Jingjing is Wei Qiaozhen's classmate? Is she jealous of Wei Qiaozhen and so she instigated Cui Lebang to kill people?"
Xia Mufan handed a page to Yue Yuan: "Look at what Cui Lebang told me. The mailing address he used to send to his pen pals has changed several times. The first address was the Railway Middle School near Zhu City Railway Station. Then it was changed to the Urban Management College in Xing City, both of which are schools Ke Lu attended before. In the past three years, it has been changed to the Tourism School in Hui City, which is near Qingming Hotel."
Yue Yuan took the paper and looked at the mailing address written on it: "Well, the mailing address is highly consistent with Ke Lu's study and work trajectory. This pen pal is Ke Ta!"
Xia Mufan said, "Captain Yue, although Cui Lebang also communicated with his pen pals under the pen name Lin Ye and agreed never to meet, after he returned to the forest farm, he wrote the Dahualing Forest Farm as the mailing address. Moreover, he did not hide anything from his pen pals, and also mentioned that he was in the mountain product business and often drove a small truck to deliver goods to restaurants."
At this point, Yue Yuan understood: "So, when Ke Lu saw Cui Lebang delivering goods in the kitchen of Qingming Hotel, he immediately thought of the pen pal named Lin Ye and recognized him."
Xia Mufan hummed, "However, Ke Lu did not expose it on the spot, but was thinking about how to make better use of Cui Lebang, so he threatened him to harm Wei Qiaozhen."
Yue Yuan's eyes gleamed, "Yes! The method to kill Cui Shengguo and Shi Hu was provided by Ke Lu. So when he secretly followed Cui Lebang and learned that his father and uncle both died of cerebral hemorrhage and stroke, he immediately realized that both were killed by Cui Lebang. Ke Lu, as Cui Lebang's only friend, knows him very well, and naturally knows that using this to threaten Cui Lebang will definitely succeed."
Xia Mufan was extremely angry at Ke Lu's shamelessness and cold-bloodedness at this moment: "Yes. Even if Cui Lebang is unwilling to do it, Ke Lu will not lose anything. Ke Lu is cautious and a detective fan. He is familiar with the legal process and will never do anything illegal or criminal before he is absolutely sure."
Yue Yuan gritted his teeth, wishing he could slap Ke Lu to death.
He tried hard to control his emotions and said in a muffled voice: "He just wrote a few words in the letter, but he killed a sixteen-year-old girl!"
Thinking of that bowl of tomato and egg noodles, Xia Mufan felt extremely sad: "Before Wei Qiaozhen died, she asked for a bowl of tomato and egg noodles because it represented the taste of her mother."
Extreme anger made Yue Yuan's mind clearer: "I'm here to apply for a search warrant. You guys hurry up and search Ke Lu's residence. Since he knew that metronidazole and alcohol can kill people, I suspect he was the one who killed his father Ke Zhigang. As long as it can be proven that Ke Lu is Cui Lebang's pen pal, he can at least not escape the charge of instigating murder! Going to each address according to Cui Lebang's mailing address, I don't believe that seven or eight years of correspondence will leave no trace at all."
Xia Mufan straightened his chest and raised his head, and said loudly: "Yes!"
--
It was not until seven o'clock in the evening that the search warrant was obtained, and Xia Mufan led his teammates to Ke Lu's residence.
There is a residential area about five or six minutes away from the Fenglin Road Coffee Shop. The houses were built in the 1980s and are all six-story brick-concrete buildings.
The house that Ke Lu rented was on the third floor of one of the buildings.
Ke Lu had no relatives to notify, so Xia Mufan found the landlord and opened the door of the rental house in the presence of the neighbors opposite.
As the door opened, a dog barking was heard.
A puppy, about half a year old, squatted at the door, staring vigilantly at the stranger who broke into the house.
[Who are you?] 】
[This is my home.] 】
[Where is the master?] 】
The puppy was yellow and white in color, with erect ears and a black nose. It looked funny and cute, and was somewhat similar to the old Chai that Xia Mufan met in Zheng'an Town.
Several members of the serious crime squad had heard the story of the Shiba Inu, and when they saw this dog, they exchanged glances. It seems that after Shiba Inu died, Ke Lu raised another dog that looked similar to Shiba Inu in order to make up for his inner regret.
Everyone knows that Ke Lu likes cats and dogs.
Xia Mufan walked up to the puppy, squatted down, looked it in the eye, and smiled: "Hello, what's your name?"
The puppy understood what she said and was a little excited.
It is young and very curious, so it started barking immediately.
[Shiba Ink. 】
[My master calls me Shiba Inu.] 】
Thinking of the Shiba Inu who had waited for his master for sixteen years at the Zheng'an Town Railway Station, Xia Mufan's voice became softer: "I'll call you Shiba Inu, okay?"
The Shiba Inu's tail began to wag constantly, and it opened its mouth and made a "Ha! Ha!" sound. Anyone could see its joy.
Feng Xiaoyu was watching from the side and felt it was rare: "Team Leader Xia is naturally liked by small animals, whether it is a cat or a dog, even a turtle is very happy to see her."
Xia Mufan took out a piece of dried meat, tore it into pieces and fed it to Shiba Inu.
The six-month-old puppy was already able to eat meat. He could not resist the temptation of the meat aroma and started eating after hesitating for a moment, making a satisfied purring sound in his throat as he ate.
[I’m so hungry.] 】
【tasty. 】
Ke Lu fed the little Shiba Inu in the morning. Twelve hours have passed since then and the Shiba Inu is so hungry that his eyes are full of stars. Xia Mufan found Shiba Inu's food bowl, put the dried meat he brought with him into it, and said to his teammates while Shiba Inu was eating, "Let's get started."
Sun Xianbing and others began to search the room.
Everyone will focus on written materials, such as letters, notebooks, diaries, account books and other items.
Judging from the furnishings and layout of the room, Ke Lu is a very self-disciplined person.
The clothes are mainly black, white and gray, and are neatly folded in the closet.
There weren't many shoes, but the few pairs were neatly placed at the door.
Even the items in the kitchen are neatly arranged.
The landlord kept asking, "What's going on? Did Ke Lu do something wrong? Will it affect me?"
Without waiting for Gong Weiguo and the others to answer, he began to explain non-stop: "When I rented the house to him, I thought he was a good person because he was young, polite, and had a clean temperament. Who knew he would get into such trouble! Police comrade, I have always been a law-abiding person. If he does anything, please don't involve me."
Gong Weiguo complained that the landlord was too noisy: "Xiaoyu, take the landlord and the neighbors to the living room and make a good search record."
Feng Xiaoyu responded, took the landlord and neighbor aside, explained the situation in a gentle voice, and asked their names and work units.
Without the landlord's interference, Gong Weiguo, Sun Xianbing and others began to search Ke Lu's room carefully.
Kelu is very careful when storing things.
There are no keys, certificates or books randomly placed on the desk. Opening the drawer, various scattered small items such as medicines, stationery, batteries, etc. are carefully put into small boxes.
No letter.
Not a single letter.
