Chapter 157 Double Clues: The Third Party
The technical department matched the portrait in the surveillance with the portrait in the ID card system, but only matched Chen Yuankun.
"Strange, why can't we find this person?" Xiao Li was puzzled.
Fang Rui said: "Could it be that he has never applied for an ID card, or his ID card photo has not been updated for a long time?"
"Possibly! If it is the former, it will be difficult. It will be difficult for us to find him as an illegal resident. But these days, there should be fewer illegal residents, right?"
Fang Rui decided to go to Chen Yuankun's house to see if he could find any clues.
Chen Yuankun's parents bought two stores and opened a small supermarket near the village in the city.
Fang Rui and Xiao Zhang came to the supermarket of Chen Yuankun's parents. His father went out to buy goods, and only his mother was watching the store in the supermarket. She was arranging the shelves.
The innermost wall of the supermarket was covered with various certificates, some for study, some for competitions, and one for a car model design competition. It was obvious that Chen Yuankun was very good.
Xiao Zhang explained their purpose to Chen's mother.
Chen's mother's hand holding the drink shook, and the drink bottle fell to the ground and slowly rolled to Fang Rui's feet.
"Comrade police, my Yuankun is a good boy, he can't possibly commit a crime. He has been very obedient since he was young, and his academic performance is also very good. He is a graduate student at a prestigious university. How could he be related to a murder case?"
Fang Rui picked up the bottle of drink and handed it to Chen's mother, "Auntie, we just want to find you to find out some information. How many children do you have?"
"Yuankun is my only child now."
Fang Rui asked, "Are you sure you only have this one child?"
Chen's mother looked a little flustered, and she whispered, "Yes, this is the only child."
"Did you give birth to twins before?"
"I... I..."
"Xiuying, why are you standing there? Hurry up and organize the shelves!" Chen's father came in carrying a box of goods and interrupted Chen's mother sternly.
With the support of Chen's father, Chen's mother also became firm. She denied: "No, I didn't give birth to twins!"
Fang Rui reminded them: "We have a DNA sample of another child. As long as we conduct a DNA test, we can quickly determine whether he is your child, so you'd better not lie."
Chen's mother panicked for a moment and looked at Chen's father helplessly. But Chen's father was also stunned, and said with a face full of surprise: "That child is still alive?"
Father Chen realized that he had spoken out of turn, and added: "We haven't had any news from him, and we thought he was dead."
Seeing this, Chen's mother covered her face and cried, "I did give birth to twins. But the other child was given away. Hey, it's all because of the fortune teller's nonsense! When I gave birth to this pair of children, I almost had a dystocia. I My father passed away in a car accident, and our shop was flooded, so we went to a fortune teller to ask what happened.
The fortune teller said that it was the twin brother who brought bad luck to us, and if we didn’t send him away, our family would not have peace... So I sent him away..."
Xiao Zhang said angrily: "He is your child, you sent him away just because of a few words from the fortune teller?" Xiao Zhang thought these people were too ignorant!
"There were too many disasters at that time, we didn't dare to gamble, we couldn't afford it! Which mother would not want to have her own child? I had no choice!"
Father Chen said nothing.
Fang Rui asked: "Did you have any news about him later?"
"No."
"Don't you know who to give him to?" Xiao Zhang questioned.
"I...I..."
"You didn't give him to anyone else, you abandoned him, right?" Fang Rui asked. In fact, he wanted to ask, did you try to kill him?
Chen's mother cried even louder, "I was also possessed by the devil at the time. I threw the child on the side of the road in the middle of winter, but when I went back to look for him again, the child was gone. I have been living in regret all these years. Police comrades, do you know where he is?"
Xiao Zhang said helplessly: "We are looking for him now."
Fang Rui asked: "Does Chen Yuankun know that he has a twin brother?"
"I don't know! We have been hiding him."
Chen's mother pulled Xiao Zhang and begged bitterly: "Comrade police, if you find him, can you take me to see him? I want to see him and want to know if he is doing well now."
Chen's father scolded her: "Cry, you only know how to cry, you have cried away all your blessings! The police have come to your door, it must be that disaster star who caused something, you still want to see him, aren't you afraid that he will kill you?"
Xiao Zhang couldn't help but confront Chen's father: "No matter what, he was born by you. It's fine if you don't raise him, but you keep calling him a disaster star. People like you are not worthy of being parents!"
Xiao Zhang and Fang Rui were driven out of the supermarket by Chen's father. They drove to the home of Wang Yonghua and his wife.
Wang Yonghua's home is in a high-end community in the city center. After ringing the doorbell, a young woman opened the door. She is Wang Yonghua's wife Li Meijia.
After learning the purpose of Fang Rui and his friends' visit, Li Meijia sneered disdainfully, and then invited Fang Rui and Xiao Zhang into her home.
"Comrade police, I knew you would definitely come to find me. When a husband dies, the biggest suspect must be his wife, even if the wife was shopping in Paris thousands of kilometers away at the time of the crime." Li Meijia said with a smile.
"You were shopping in Paris on the night of the 23rd?" Xiao Zhang asked.
Li Meijia asked back, "Didn't you check my alibi as soon as possible?"
"..." They immediately ruled out the possibility that Li Meijia committed the crime personally. Li Meijia flew abroad on the 21st and returned by plane early in the morning on the 24th.
Fang Rui found that the house seemed to have been renovated, the furniture inside was very new, and there were traces of paint on the walls. There was a huge display cabinet in the living room. It was filled with various car models instead of books or artworks.
"As soon as I heard about his death, I immediately had the old furniture thrown out," Li Meijia explained. "I want to make sure that all traces of him disappear from this house."
"Do you like cars?" Fang Rui asked casually.
"No, but the man I like likes cars."
Li Meijia poured a cup of tea for Fang Rui and Xiao Zhang, and then sat across from them. She took out a pack of cigarettes and offered them to Xiao Zhang and Fang Rui. After both of them refused, she smoked one herself.
"Wang Yonghua likes cars?" Xiao Zhang was surprised, "I didn't know he had this hobby."
Li Meijia rolled her eyes, "Officer Zhang, do you hate me?"
"...Aren't you going to hide the fact that you cheated?"
"If I hide it, you won't be able to find out?" Li Meijia shook off the ashes, "I only need to hide it in front of Wang Yonghua's family and his lawyer. When I get his property, I will get married immediately. I want the whole world to know that I cheated on him."
Xiao Zhang found that once Wang Yonghua died, Li Meijia became a winner in life.
"What's your boyfriend's name?" Fang Rui asked.
"Ding Zhuangzhuang."
"Do you have a photo of your boyfriend?"
"My boyfriend is very introverted and he doesn't like having his photos taken. And I can't take a photo with him, otherwise if Wang Yonghua's family finds out, they'll use the excuse that I'm cheating on him to seize my inheritance."
"Is it him?" Fang Rui found the photo of the man in the surveillance video on his phone and showed it to Li Meijia.
Li Meijia took a look and her face immediately changed. She was very smart and immediately realized that the man in the photo was the suspect. She was about to deny knowing this man when she heard Fang Rui say, "Ms. Li, your expression has betrayed you."
"Comrade police, my boyfriend is a very kind person. He usually eats vegetarian food. It's impossible for him to kill anyone! Did you make a mistake?" Li Meijia explained in a panic. But it was obvious that she couldn't even convince herself with this argument.
"Where is he? Take us to find him. We have DNA evidence. As long as he is willing to cooperate with the DNA test, we will soon know whether he is the murderer."
