Chapter 160 Double Clues: No Confession

Back at the bureau, Fang Rui convened a case analysis meeting.

Chen Xue first raised her own questions: "If the murder weapon was not taken from the toolbox by the murderer, why is there oil on the wrench? Could it be a broken one? But from the scene, the murderer should have killed in passion, so why would he carry a tool that he rarely uses? If it was a premeditated murder, why didn't he buy a new wrench?"

Everyone nodded in agreement. They also felt that many of the evidences were contradictory.

"He clearly had two cell phones. The one that was in contact with Li Meijia and Sun Xiaoning was not missing, but the other one was. If he was really the murderer, shouldn't he have disposed of both phones?"

"Everyone in the repair shop said that Ding Zhuangzhuang didn't have a habit of drinking, but after the incident, he suddenly drank a lot of alcohol, or maybe it was fake wine. Could this be a coincidence?"

Everyone raised a series of questions, and an answer was about to emerge.

Mu Mian gave the answer: "Someone is framing him! The murderer didn't kill in a fit of passion, this was a carefully planned murder."

"If that's the case, then the person who framed him can only be Chen Yuankun. But why did Chen Yuankun do this? Ding Zhuangzhuang has suffered so much, why did he still frame him for murder?"

"Well, these are just our speculations, and we can't overturn the current chain of evidence." Chen Xue sighed, the DNA evidence was ironclad evidence. "

Xiao Li, you and Lao Zhang check the surveillance near Chen Yuankun's home to see if he really didn't go out on the night of the 23rd as he said."

Ding Zhuangzhuang was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment and was rescued. The nurse gave him an IV drip for another night. The next afternoon, the doctor called and said that Ding Zhuangzhuang had regained consciousness.

"Fang Rui, can I go to the hospital with you?"

"Who are you going to see?"

"I'm going to collect live evidence."

Chen Xue said, "Live evidence? Haven't we already tested his DNA? Is there any other evidence that needs to be collected?"

"Chen Xue, you continue to write your report. Fang Rui and I will go alone."

"..."

Ding Zhuangzhuang opened his eyes at noon, but his mind was not very clear. His left hand kept clapping with the air, his pupils were cloudy, and he looked restless.

Mu Mian's eyes were fixed on the scar on his left hand. Ding Zhuangzhuang moved around, making it difficult for Mu Mian to observe clearly.

"Why is he clapping his hands at the air?" Fang Rui thought Ding Zhuangzhuang might have been poisoned by the fake alcohol.

"Fang Rui, you may not be able to record his confession. He is in this state now because he is intoxicated by alcohol. His brain is probably damaged. If he is unlucky, he will be like this for the rest of his life." Mu Mian sighed, "Fang Rui, hold his hand. I can't see his scars clearly."

There were scratches on the back of Ding Zhuangzhuang's hand, and the scars had scabbed over.

"We detected dandruff in Wang Yonghua's three fingernails, but why are there scratches on the back of his hand?" Fang Rui remembered the contents of the autopsy report and quickly figured out what Mu Mian was confirming.

"His hand was not scratched by Wang Yonghua!" Mu Mian said, "Wang Yonghua's fingernails are very long and sharp, but the scratch marks are very wide. When I detected the dandruff, I thought it was strange, why was there no blood on the nails? Now it seems that those dandruffs were most likely put on the nails by someone deliberately." This

evidence can prove that Ding Zhuangzhuang was most likely framed.

Ding Zhuangzhuang suddenly looked behind Fang Rui and Mu Mian, and he shouted: "You are here?"

Fang Rui and Mu Mian looked back at the same time, but saw nothing.

Ding Zhuangzhuang grinned at the air.

"Do you still remember your name?" Fang Rui asked tentatively.

"Zhangshuzi."

"Your name is Zhangshuzi?"

"Hehe, you are, you are."

"Do you remember what you were doing on the night of the 23rd?"

"Someone was crying, it was so noisy." Ding Zhuangzhuang muttered, "He's here again. Hehe."

Ding Zhuangzhuang was already a little mentally confused, and Fang Rui was completely unable to communicate with him.

Ding Zhuangzhuang's attending physician said: "We have done an MRI of his head and detected that he has organic lesions in his brain, which has caused his central nervous system dysfunction. His memory and thinking abilities will decline, and he may even exhibit aggressive behavior."

"Is there any way to restore him to normal through treatment?"

"This kind of damage is irreversible and cannot be restored." The doctor looked at Fang Rui with an embarrassed expression, "Officer Fang... Have you found his family? His medical expenses..."

"Didn't his parents come to the hospital yesterday?" Fang Rui had already notified Chen's father and mother yesterday and asked them to come to the hospital to see him.

"No! No one came to the hospital to see him, let alone pay for him."

"I'll pay for him!" Mu Mian said.

"It's not a small amount of money for you to pay for her. He has no medical insurance, so the expenses can't be reimbursed. This treatment will probably cost tens of thousands of yuan. You should ask his family to come over."

"He has no family." Mu Mian said softly, "He is very pitiful. He has been wandering alone since he was a child. I'm rich, so I'll pay for him."

"..."

Mu Mian took Fang Rui to the payment window to pay for Ding Zhuangzhuang. When it was time to pay, Mu Mian realized that there were only a few hundred yuan in her account. She looked at Fang Rui awkwardly.

Fang Rui paid the fees for Ding Zhuangzhuang, and he paid some extra money, which should be enough for his subsequent treatment. Regardless of whether Ding Zhuangzhuang is a criminal or not, Fang Rui is willing to pay him the money because he is so pitiful. What's happened to him is the double failure of his family and society.

The premise is that his life experience is true.

Fang Rui suddenly remembered that they had not verified Ding Zhuangzhuang's experience. But there was no way to verify it, Ding Zhuangzhuang had no ID card, and no one knew where his hometown was.

"Fang Rui, I will pay you back when I go back and borrow money from my sister." Mu Mian whispered.

"No need, just think of it as us doing charity together."

"But I didn't pay."

"You give the thought, and I pay the money."

Mu Mian sighed, "I obviously get a lot of salary every month, why is all the money gone?"

Mu Mian doesn't care much about her bank account balance, so she just found out that she is a moonlighter.

When Chen Xue said she was a moonlighter, Mu Mian laughed at her, saying how could she spend so much salary in one month? Unexpectedly, she is also a moonlighter.

"You often buy a bunch of anatomical tools and the latest medical equipment at your own expense, like to buy books and magazines, like to buy Legos and puzzles. Oh, you are also keen on giving gifts to others."

"They gave me gifts first."

"You have never given me a gift." Fang Rui said sourly.

Mu Mian felt wronged: "Fang Rui, I want to give you the best gift in the world, but the best gift does not exist in the world, so I'm sorry, I can't give you this gift."

"Can't you give me an ordinary gift?"

Mu Mian shook her head, "No. You deserve the best."

"..." Because of this logical paradox, Fang Rui felt that he would never receive a gift from Mu Mian in his life.

At this time, a mother and son came across the corridor. They were Chen's mother and Chen Yuankun.

Mother Chen recognized Fang Rui, and she came over and asked, "Is my little son in the hospital? Where is he? Police comrade, can you take me to see him?"

Fang Rui pointed to the ward opposite them and said, "He's inside."

Mother Chen said to Chen Yuankun, "Yuankun, you have a younger brother. He got lost accidentally that year. Now we finally found him. You have to treat him well, understand?"

"Mom, I know."

Mother Chen turned around and walked into the ward.

Chen Yuankun looked at her from behind, with a disgusted smile on his face. After feeling the gazes of Fang Rui and Mu Mian, he immediately put away his smile and caught up with his mother's footsteps.
