Criminal evidence

During this period of time, Shen Changyan was almost insane, devoting himself to the progress of the case investigation.

Some time ago, everyone was staying up all night and sorting out information. He was slow and indifferent, but now because the perpetrator has surrendered himself, when everyone relaxes, he starts to work alone again.

Because of the special relationship between the tall man and the Shen family, Shen Changyan naturally suffered a lot of criticism, but he turned a deaf ear the whole time, and was able to fully immerse himself in his investigation plan as soon as he buried his head.

Ignore others at all.

Lu Qinghe understood the reason for his insistence, tried to persuade him once, but it didn't work, so he didn't say any more.

He knew that what Shen Changyan needed most now was companionship, so no matter how hard or tired he was, as long as he could stay behind the other party, staying in a position where Shen Changyan could see him as soon as he turned his head, that was enough.

"According to the information provided by the deceased's former friends, she usually likes to shop at several fixed foreign trade shopping spots in the Shimao Building. On weekends, she will invite friends to play mahjong. Even if she loses money, she will take the initiative to pay for tea seats. Dafang, the abnormality occurred one month before the deceased disappeared, she suddenly stopped her usual hobbies and activities, she stopped drinking tea and coffee, and she seemed not as particular about her clothes and appearance as before."

During the re-investigation of the case, Lu Qinghe followed Shen Changyan to search the victim's home more than ten times.

They had just come out of the deceased's house that afternoon, and they were unlucky to catch up with a heavy rain, so they found a nearby coffee shop to sit down.

Lu Qinghe seldom entered such a high-end beverage store, and when he got the menu, he was confused looking at the various varieties. He didn't know why, so he simply asked for the same content as Shen Changyan.

While waiting for the waiter to grind coffee at the open and transparent counter, Lu Qinghe took out his notebook of investigation records during this period, and seriously exchanged the clues of the case with Shen Changyan.

"But I feel a little strange here. Even if we assume that at this time, some irreconcilable conflicts have already occurred between the deceased and the partner of the extramarital affair, such as not going shopping or playing mahjong because of a bad mood. These are understandable, but not No matter how much you pay attention to your own clothes and appearance, it doesn’t make sense no matter how you think about it.”

Shen Changyan looked at the rain outside the window and was lost for a moment. He asked Lu Qinghe, "How should I say it?"

"You still remember Chen Lu?"

"remember."

"Before she got married, she also had a very serious conflict with her current husband, which almost reached the point of breaking up." Lu Qinghe said, "Because of emotional problems during that time, Chen Lu's whole person's expression and state were very different. Obviously something was wrong, but when people asked her, she said that she was fine. Even though many unshakable amateur activities were canceled due to depression, she still took care of herself decently every day, and then insisted as if nothing happened Work, never miss a day."

Shen Changyan raised his eyes to look at Lu Qinghe, as if he didn't understand what the other party wanted to express.

So Lu Qinghe said, "Girls are actually a kind of creature that will exceed your imagination. Although they usually look weak, they are actually very strong at critical moments. If there is a difficult moment, they will not show it to outsiders." Their pitiful appearance, they are afraid of other people's sympathy, whether it is career loss or emotional loss, this is a battle for them, no woman will allow herself to stand on the battlefield disheveled and disheveled, Do you understand what I mean?"

"You mean that the deceased's retreat in clothing and makeup was not due to accidental emotional failure, but because of some kind of necessity, so she had to allow herself to exist in disgrace?"

"correct answer."

Shen Changyan's mood has been low these days, so Lu Qinghe tried his best to mobilize his mood.

Even though he is equally tired, he still wants to work hard to be a little sun beside Shen Changyan who can shine, heat up, and illuminate the way forward.

Lu Qinghe said, "Shen Changyan, you must still remember what that woman looked like when she drove to ask us for directions that day."

"Remember, curly hair, big eyes, good looks, and very bright red lips."

"Although we have confirmed that she had an extramarital affair and was killed because of the existence of that person, but now all these prerequisites are put aside, just relying on the intuition of the day, Shen Changyan, when she asked you for directions, what was in your mind? What was your first thought?"

"Acquainted."

"That's right, I felt the same way at the time. At that time, my first thought was that she came to strike up a conversation with you. Don't underestimate the first feeling. Let me put it more harshly. This woman must have moved to seduce you at the time." your thoughts."

Shen Changyan had a speechless expression on his face.

Lu Qinghe continued, "If she just wants to come in front of you and expose someone's extramarital affairs, she doesn't need to dress up so brightly, well, let's take a step back and say, even if she needs to overwhelm her in terms of momentum as a battlefield You, or stepping on the original partner to gain the upper hand, then she doesn't need to prepare so many actions before, she can even tell you who she is directly, but she didn't, she chose the way of chatting up, why, because she wants to seduce you. "

"What did she seduce me for?"

"Shen Changyan, although it's inappropriate to say that, since you have determined that this matter has something to do with your father, then I can only temporarily offend Uncle Shen as the hypothetical object."

Lu Qinghe said, "From my thinking, the deceased should want to be in power."

He said, "She is no longer satisfied with her status as a lover. Here we don't care whether she is because of love, or because she is obsessed with the murderer's status or the satisfaction brought about by money, but we confirm one thing, she wants to be in power. He wanted to force his original partner away, but the murderer was unwilling. The murderer was unwilling to break his current seemingly happy family life for her, and he was unwilling to affect his official career because of this matter, so because of this matter, the two sides had conflicts .”

Lu Qinghe paused, "But Shen Changyan, I personally don't think this is enough to make a man want to kill."

Shen Changyan raised his head after listening, he looked at Lu Qinghe, his face suddenly turned pale, "What do you mean?"

Lu Qinghe swallowed his saliva, "The junior's desire to be in the top position will indeed bring great troubles to men who already have families. According to past cases, men with high positions and weights will resolve this problem in many ways, instead of Murder to silence, although killing the dead directly, if successful, can achieve once and for all results, but in a society ruled by law, this is definitely the worst and most stupid way. Your father has worked in the provincial department for so many years, it is impossible for him not to Understand this truth."

"Lu Qinghe, I..."

"But he still chose the most risky way. According to my inference, the reason must be that the other party has completely touched his bottom line and completely angered him. That's why he suddenly made such an irrational decision on impulse. .”

Shen Changyan's mouth began to tremble, "His bottom line..."

"His bottom line should be you." Lu Qinghe said, "Because the deceased didn't succeed in the position, he felt hatred and wanted to completely destroy Uncle Shen's family, and even wanted to seduce you to have an affair. It will completely anger Uncle Shen."

"But my dad knows about our relationship, he knows I don't like women."

"Yes, Shen Changyan, he knows that you don't like women, so these tricks of the deceased are logically not offensive to him at all, but have you forgotten? That woman first talked to you first, but later , she suddenly changed the target of her attack and began to appear in front of my eyes repeatedly."

"You mean, she might have discovered our relationship?"

Shen Changyan suddenly began to feel chills on his back.

After working hours, whenever he and Lu Qinghe left the gate of the Municipal Bureau, they were always sticky together, and even occasionally hid in the alley outside the house to make love, which was also a common occurrence.

He can't guarantee 100% that he will never be seen by others when he does anything out of line.

Lu Qinghe said, "Shen Changyan, you know, once the relationship between us is exposed, it will bring a devastating blow to you and me."

No one will allow the existence of homosexuality, even if homosexuality does not bring any harm to this society, they also regard homosexuality as a scourge.

This was the reason why Lu Qinghe was determined to break up with Shen Changyan at the beginning, but unexpectedly, after going around in circles, they still embarked on this road of no return.

"Shen Changyan, have you ever thought that maybe your father is protecting you, or protecting our relationship from being known by more people."

Lu Qinghe tightened his fingers on his notebook, and he said, "In addition, I have a bolder idea, that is, since that woman dared to seduce you, she decided to destroy your family if she was so ruthless. She is determined to win the position. Our question now is why she is bound to win. Shen Changyan, I remember that there was a girl in our group before. She was pregnant, so she had a period I haven't taken care of my makeup and hairstyle too much, I wonder if it's because..."

Lu Qinghe didn't finish his sentence, but when the word "pregnant" was uttered, Shen Changyan's mind almost crashed immediately.

He couldn't help standing up straight from the sofa in the cafe, because the waiter just came over to deliver the coffee, the two of them bumped into each other, the coffee splashed all over Shen Changyan's body, and the white bottle used to hold the coffee The porcelain cup also fell to the ground and was smashed into pieces.

-

Of course, Lu Qinghe was just guessing. Without any evidence, it could even be said to be a nonsense made up at will, which would make Shen Changyan feel dizzy for a whole day.

Back at the Municipal Bureau that night, after being almost silent for nearly five hours, Shen Changyan took out a pen and paper to fill out the application and asked the forensic room to examine whether the deceased had any signs of pregnancy. Can't write a complete Chinese character.

"Shen Changyan." Lu Qinghe was really worried about his state, so he stretched out his hand and pressed the other's finger.

"I'm fine." Shen Changyan shook his head, he took a deep breath, and the sudden pain in his heart couldn't be stopped even if he stretched out his hand and pressed it.

"Shen Changyan."

"I am fine."

The conversation was repeated again.

Lu Qinghe was really worried, "You know that I also made random guesses without any clues. Don't, you don't have to take it too seriously. Otherwise, we, we won't fill in this list."

"No." Shen Changyan pulled Lu Qinghe's hand away, and he said, "Help me, here, fill in the date, here, write my name."

The pen was stuffed into Lu Qinghe's hand.

When he held the body of the pen, Shen Changyan's temperature still remained, and the pen was hot.

But Lu Qinghe didn't receive much temperature from Shen Changyan's body. Instead, he felt chills all over his body, as if infected by the other party's fear, so his fingers trembled uncontrollably.

It was just a matter of filling in a few numbers in the date column. He wrote several times, but like Shen Changyan, he couldn't write any neat words.

"I'll write it myself." Shen Changyan looked at Lu Qinghe's hand, and suddenly took the pen and paper from his hand, "In case, in case I regret it later, I won't blame you."

"Shen Changyan." Lu Qinghe called his name, "You'd better think about it."

"Don't think about it. If the problem is really found out this time, it is his own mistake. He is responsible and must bear the consequences. I shouldn't cover it up."

Shen Changyan thought he was betting.

The feeling of loss at that time made him feel a little more terrified than when he first discovered in Wancheng that the gang behind Liu Wenshu and Wu Chengzhou actually had some protective and protected relationship with his father who was far away in Beijing.

Shen Changyan seemed to have a premonition that he would really lose that person completely this time.

Lu Qinghe might not know again, but at that time they were watching Tianmen at night, he and Shen Changyan were separated in the enemy area, and the sudden explosion sound really made Shen Changyan think that Lu Qinghe was buried under the ruins.

At that time, he was so scared that he was dying, and after finding someone, he cried loudly in front of everyone.

After getting out of the grief of "I almost lost Lu Qinghe", Shen Changyan's rationality gradually began to recover, and he began to examine slowly, even if Wu Chengzhou risked being caught, he would definitely explode. What is the reason for dropping those buildings?

The criminal investigation team confiscated the scene for six days, and Shen Changyan found one of the more than 600 damaged documents, which was a pass with his father's name written on it.

If this evidence is brought to the court for judgment, it is obviously not sufficient, but from that moment on, the trust between the Shen family father and son gradually began to disintegrate.

Shen Changyan couldn't describe his mood.

The relationship between him and his father was originally very alienated and weak, but he grew up under his father's majesty. Although he was afraid, he also admired him.

How were all these feelings wiped out in the later years?

Oh, he remembered, it was the time when the woman raised outside made trouble at the door, and in the midst of hastily pushing and shoving, his mother was even slapped.

It was not the first time.

"Shen Changyan, I will hand in this report for reapplying for autopsy for you. If one day in the future you regret your decision today, then I am willing to bear half of the responsibility and pain for you."

It doesn't take much time to re-autopsy, just to confirm whether the deceased is pregnant.

The day after Lu Qinghe's application was submitted, the medical examiner's office opened up the deceased's abdomen to confirm that there were indeed embryos in the deceased's uterus.

The deceased confirmed that she was pregnant, so now it is necessary to confirm who the child is.

After the police contacted the husband of the deceased to get the hair for DNA identification, Lu Qinghe watched helplessly as Shen Changyan replaced the tall man's hair in the plastic bag with his own.

It will take at least seven days to wait for the appraisal results from professional organizations, and Lu Qinghe doesn't know how to describe how Shen Changyan spent this time.

Until the day when the agreed results came, the two of them had been waiting outside the laboratory door early.

An appraiser in a white coat came out with a file bag.

"The results of this report are somewhat strange."

This is the first sentence that the result appraiser said to them after they went out.

And the second sentence is, "At that time, the police sent it to say that it was a paternity test, but neither of the two reports had a parent-child relationship, but one of the samples was made, and the results showed that there should be a relationship."

Lu Qinghe couldn't understand these, so he could only ask, "What do you mean?"

The appraiser said, "Simply speaking, the results of the second sample show that the two parties are not father-son, but may be brothers."

Lu Qinghe was stunned, at the moment when his guess was confirmed, he didn't even dare to look back at Shen Changyan.

This result is not unexpected.

Lu Qinghe guessed right, and Shen Changyan lost the bet, but the moment the confirmed result was in front of him, both of them still felt as if they were struck by lightning.

From nine o'clock in the morning to four o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Changyan and Lu Qinghe came out of the gate of the identification center.

They didn't say anything the whole time, but the closer they got to the door, Shen Changyan's steps became bigger and faster, almost to the point where Lu Qinghe had to run to catch up with him.

"Shen Changyan, Shen Changyan." Lu Qinghe kept calling that name.

This Saturday, Shen's father was resting at home. As soon as Shen Changyan entered the gate, he rushed straight to the study on the second floor without hesitation.

Mother Shen was taken aback, and worriedly followed upstairs to check the situation, but before she stepped into the room, she was stopped by Lu Qinghe.

"Auntie, don't go in."

Only half a step back, the next second, Shen Changyan grabbed Father Shen by the skirt, mercilessly lifted him from the leather mahogany seat, and slammed him hard on the row of bookcases behind him.

"Are you human? Are you human?"
