For a while, everyone present was speechless, and in the quiet rural courtyard, there was only the rustling sound of the cold wind passing by in the middle of the night.

Following this line of thought makes many existing things more reasonable, but it also brings other mysteries.

It has been impossible to explain how Liu Weidong transported Jia Pengfei's body from Jia's house without using transportation.Following the hypothesis put forward by Jin Xu and overturning the premise that Liu Weidong and Jia Pengfei had come back together, everything made sense.

After Liu Weidong killed Jia Pengfei, he stuffed the body in the trunk of the van and hid it temporarily, or he just threw the body into the uninhabited grass.

Then he took the third person back to the village together, parked the van at Jia Pengfei's house, waited for the villagers to rest in the dead of night, and then they left quietly by the path.

Who is the third person? Why did Liu Weidong and this person come back?

This becomes a new problem.

After all, Li Jie is an old criminal policeman. Once he accepted the new idea, his reaction was quite sharp. He said: "In order to create the illusion that Jia Pengfei has returned home, and to bring back the tools and van to confuse other people, it can also interfere with the police. work."

A large living person returned home, and the body appeared [-] kilometers away from home. The method of throwing the body could not be explained. This was indeed a great disturbance to the police.

A criminal policeman at the scene put forward a different idea: "This is a bit superfluous. The surveillance of the main road at the entrance of the village took pictures of Liu Weidong clearly. Once we started the investigation, the direction of detection was immediately clear. We just wanted to find clues to prove that Liu Weidong was the murderer." .Then this set of tricks to confuse people doesn’t seem to make much sense.”

Another policeman echoed: "Agreed. There is another problem. The murder weapon is the hoe. When it was found, it was placed in the small house."

He pointed to the corner of the small courtyard, where there was a simple small room filled with sundries and various farming tools.

Normally, the murderer should dispose of the murder weapon directly, find a way to destroy it or throw it away where it is not easy to be found, instead of just putting it in the deceased's home. This is a place that can be searched by the police, and Liu Weidong is still there left his fingerprints.

Liu Weidong was regarded as a major suspect in Jia Pengfei's murder. The first clue to be stamped was the blood-stained hoe with his fingerprints on it.

The case seemed to be in a foggy stalemate. From the discovery of the body last night to now, many criminal police officers, including Li Jie, had been working continuously for more than 24 hours, and everyone was exhausted.

Li Jie said: "Let's go here first today, everyone break up and go back to sleep, and continue tomorrow morning."

He ordered the two criminal police colleagues who came later to protect the scene, and then the others went back together for a rest.

Li Jie also lived in the family courtyard of the sub-bureau.

"Master," Jin Xu called him, and said, "Take our car? Just go home directly, so that others don't have to take a detour to see you off."

Li Jie bid farewell to the others, and came to sit in the police car that Jin Xu and the other three had driven.

Yuan Ding saw the situation, a deputy department, a deputy bureau, and a criminal investigation captain, come on, he is the most suitable driver.

He was about to go to the driver's seat, but was stopped by Shang Yang, who said, "Let me drive, to see how trapped you are, drive the car into a ditch on the way, half of the criminal investigation team of Baiyuan City was destroyed by you on the spot. "

Both Jin Xu and Li Jie laughed.

On the way back to the city.

Jin Xu and Li Jie continued to chat about the case in the back row.

"There is another situation," Jin Xu said to Li Jie about his doubts about the surveillance, "After Liu Weidong drove a van into the village, he deliberately got out of the car at a place with a camera. I always feel that This move was because he was worried that the surveillance would not be able to capture his face, so he did it on purpose."

Li Jie said: "You mean, he deliberately directed the police's attention to himself? What is this for?"

Yuan Ding, the co-pilot, really wanted to express his opinion, but he didn't dare to interject. He was anxious and couldn't help scratching his head.

Shang Yang noticed it and said, "What do you think?"

Jin Xu also said: "Tell me, there are no outsiders here."

Yuan Dingcai said, "I'm just thinking about it."

Jin Xu said with a smile: "Before the truth is revealed, all fantasies may be part of the truth."

Yuan Ding was encouraged, and his timidity eased a lot. He said, "Is it possible that Liu Weidong wants to take the blame for the real murderer?"

Li Jie said, "How to say?"

"Just like what my Senior Brother Jin said, Liu Weidong's behavior seems to be to attract attention, for fear that the police will not find him." Yuan Ding said, "If he is the real murderer, this is unreasonable, so I I think he may have used these methods to protect the murderer and make the police place more suspicion on him."

Jin Xu asked: "Then who do you think he wants to protect?"

Yuan Ding tentatively said: "Florist...Sun Lina? She was blackmailed by Jia Pengfei to the point where she couldn't bear it, so she accidentally killed him. Out of guilt or true love, Liu Weidong was willing to take the blame for her. The person in the van pretending to be Jia Pengfei was probably Sun Lina wore Jia Pengfei's clothes."

Jin Xu stopped talking and looked at Shang Yang from the rearview mirror.

Shang Yang met his gaze, and inexplicably understood that Jin Xu meant to let him pour cold water on Yuan Ding himself, so that the degree of dampening Yuan Ding's enthusiasm would be less.

He couldn't help but slander, you do what encourages people, and I'm the only one who throws cold water?You are very kind to the younger brother.

"Your idea makes sense," Shang Yang said to Yuan Ding, "it just doesn't make sense."

Yuan Ding asked, "Why?"

Shang Yang said: "On the Saturday when Jia Pengfei died, Sun Lina worked in the flower shop all day and never left. She didn't have the time to commit the murder, and it was impossible for her to appear in the flower shop and Jia Pengfei at the same time. In the village of home."

Yuan Ding, however, only cared about logical reasoning, completely forgot about this point, and said disappointedly: "Oh."

Shang Yang held the steering wheel with one hand, and patted Yuan Ding's shoulder with the other to express comfort and encouragement.

Jin Xu said: "But what the younger brother said is indeed reasonable. Although the person Liu Weidong wants to cover for is not Sun Lina, there must be someone else. His behavior is very unreasonable. The first half of the reasoning of the younger brother Yuan Ding is the current one. The most plausible possibility."

Li Jie also said: "Indeed it is. But I have another guess. Liu Weidong dared to be exposed to the camera, or maybe it was a fluke, thinking that Jia Pengfei's body would not be found."

Jin Xu showed a thoughtful expression, but Shang Yang didn't keep up with the thinking of the master and apprentice, and asked, "How do you say that?"

"My master means," Jin Xu explained, "Liu Weidong doesn't want to take the blame for others, and his purpose is not to hope that the police will suspect him as the murderer, but to think that the corpse will be thrown in that kind of place and will not be found by others. No one knew that Jia Pengfei was dead. We now know that Liu Weidong and Jia Pengfei are quite familiar. He must know Jia Pengfei’s social relationship. No one will look for him in the city, and after waiting for a while, someone finally found him missing, the corpse thrown in the wilderness has long since decayed and been eaten by animals, it is hard to say whether there are any useful clues left."

Shang Yang caught up a little bit, but he still didn't understand something, and said, "What does this have to do with him being deliberately exposed to surveillance?"

Jin Xu said: "Leader, you are a little stupid."

Shang Yang: "?"

He was about to explode, but he held back considering that Li Jie was there.

But he soon discovered that both Li Jie and Yuan Ding had expressions of "I didn't hear anything". Yuan Ding looked left and right, and Li Jie looked out the window.

Shang Yang: "???"

"Liu Weidong doesn't think this will be classified as a homicide soon," Jin Xu said, "Jia Pengfei went home during the surveillance, and the van also stayed at home. After a while, Jia Pengfei was found missing, and the police started looking for someone, and they appeared in the surveillance with Jia Pengfei. Liu Weidong will be questioned by the police. At that time, he can tell the police that he just went to Jia Pengfei’s house as a guest that day and left after staying for a while. He has no idea where Jia Pengfei has been since he left. Jia Pengfei has never seen anyone. If there is no dead body, this kind of case is usually temporarily closed as a disappearance case."

Countless people go missing every year, and sometimes it is helpless to close the case hastily.

Shang Yang said: "But there is a murder weapon, and there are his fingerprints on the murder weapon, leaving such obvious murder clues, is it justified?"

"Indeed, this is the biggest doubt." Jin Xu said, "Master, what do you think about this?"

Li Jie said: "I can't figure it out for a while. The problem may still be caused by a third person. Who could this person be?"

Shang Yang said: "No matter who he or she is, the suspicion of conspiring with Liu Weidong to murder someone and throw the body is very high. It should not be Liu Weidong's random helper."

"Didn't the little cousin say that Jia Pengfei had a helper who dug up the corpses before? It was from the next province." Jin Xu said, "Tomorrow, I will check this person first. I will go to the surrounding branches to find out how many people there are this year." There may be some clues about the case of the theft of the female body."

Back to the branch family courtyard.

The doorman opened the electric lift gate, looked into the car, continued to mistook Shang Yang for a girl, and said reproachfully, "How can Xiao Jin let his girlfriend drive?"

Four people in a car: "..."

Li Jie and Jin Xu lived in the same building. After parking the car in the yard, he said goodbye to the other three and asked, "Can you sleep at home? Xiao Yuan, why don't you sleep at my house?"

Yuan Ding and Jin Xu had different thoughts for a while, and they agreed, but they didn't answer.

Shang Yang thought Yuan Ding was sleepy and stupid, so he answered Li Jie for him: "I can sleep well. Captain Li, go back and rest, see you tomorrow."

So Li Jie left.

Jin Xu's residence.

The single dormitory of Deputy Bureau Jin is a two-bedroom apartment.

Last night, Shang Yang slept on a big bed in the master bedroom, Yuan Ding slept on a single wooden bed in the second bedroom, and Jin Xu, who came back in the middle of the night, slept on the sofa outside for less than three hours.

"You can't let the master sleep on the sofa again today." Shang Yang said to Jin Xu, "They're all men, so it's okay to sleep together, right?"

As soon as Yuan Ding came out of the bathroom, he heard the explosive words, so he hurriedly stopped, he didn't want to go out and provoke others, mainly because he was afraid of offending his master.

In the living room, Jin Xu said with an expression of indifference, "Of course it's nothing. I can do whatever I want."

Shang Yang said: "That's good."

Then he went to sleep alone in the second bedroom.

Jin Xu: "..."

Yuan Ding: "..."
