After Xu Zhenguo finished telling the whole story of the case in one breath, Liu Chuanxun added: "After forensic inference, Zhang Lei's death time was around 10:30 in the morning."

"That was the time of death initially determined by the medical examiner at the scene. The complete autopsy report has not yet been released, so the exact time of death may have slight errors."

Liu Chuanxun nodded and asked: "We have made a similar timetable to the time sequence you summarized, but what exactly do you want to explain?"

"Then let me tell you the conclusion directly." Xu Zhenguo exhaled a puff of smoke as he spoke, "The suspicious persons Qi Xiaoting encountered were Ai Dagu and the others. At the same time, Qi Xiaoting also deliberately concealed some important truths..."

"What do you mean...Qi Xiaoting is the murderer?" He Li couldn't help but ask.

Xu Zhenguo did not answer, but continued: "In fact, Zhang Lei's death was neither injury to death nor robbery and murder, but murder. It was a long-planned murder by an acquaintance of Zhang Lei!"

Liu Chuanxun found this a bit unbelievable. He asked excitedly: "Who is the murderer?"

"Don't know yet."

"Don't know yet?"

"I don't know yet, Captain Liu, please let me finish my words first."

Xu Zhenguo saw the surprised looks of others and said: "To explain why we don't know the identity of the murderer, we have to start with the three doubts raised by Zhou Quan. Xiao Zhou, given that Brigade Liu did not appear at the same time as us,

At the scene, can you briefly explain the doubts raised before?"

Zhou Quan nodded: "First, Zhang Lei's fatal injury was on the back of the head, but he was lying on his back when he died; second, there were many green plants crushed around the body, indicating that many people had been to the scene; third, how Zhang Lei arrived

Longshou Mountain was unknown before."

Xu Zhenguo continued: "The third question is already obvious. Zhang Lei was taken to Longshou Mountain by Chao Wenlong's thugs. As for the second question, I think it was the traces left by Ai Dugu and three others when they arrived at the scene."

"So the three of Ai Dugu are the murderers of Zhang Lei?" He Li interjected and asked.

Zhou Quan said disdainfully: "I've already said that I don't know who the murderer is, but I'm still asking questions without thinking."

He Li stuck out his tongue in embarrassment.

"Daxu, do you have any evidence for saying that?" Liu Chuanxun asked.

"As Ai Dugu has not yet arrived in the case, Qi Xiaoting's identification material is the only evidence. However, Qi Xiaoting has concealed a lot of truth at present. If there are a lot of doubts in her testimony, then her identification cannot be used as effective evidence."

"What should we do?"

"Although this is cruel, I must expose Qi Xiaoting's lies."

Liu Chuanxun asked in confusion: "I don't understand, what lie did Qi Xiaoting tell, and what truth did she want to hide? Will the facts she concealed have a fundamental impact on the investigation of the case?"

"If you re-watch the surveillance near Longshou Mountain and pay attention to Qi Xiaoting's two-seater sports car, you will find that Qi Xiaoting did not arrive at Zhongyitang Villa at 11 o'clock, but had already arrived at Longshou Mountain before 10 o'clock.

.”

"Have you seen the surveillance?" He Li asked.

"No. But there are various signs that Qi Xiaoting did not arrive at Zhongyi Hall at eleven o'clock, and there was another person in Qi Xiaoting's car."

Liu Chuanxun felt dizzy after hearing this. What Xu Zhenguo said made him completely confused.

He rubbed his eyes vigorously: "Who is the other person you are talking about?"

"The other person is Chao Wenlong."

"How is that possible!" Liu Chuanxun raised his voice excitedly, "Chao Wenlong has always been in the villa in Longshou Mountain with Zhang Lei?"

"Your statement is wrong. Chao Wenlong is not always with Zhang Lei. To be precise, Chao Wenlong is only always with Zhang Lei's mobile phone."

Under everyone's puzzled gazes, Xu Zhenguo explained calmly: "At 8:15 in the morning, after Zhang Lei called Qu Yanan, Chao Wenlong was worried that the two million would not be received on time, so he forced Zhang Lei

Thinking of other ways to raise money. At this time, Zhang Lei mentioned Qi Xiaoting from Youjiang Normal University and provided their relationship and mobile phone numbers to Chao Wenlong. In order to ensure that he could get the 500,000, Chao Wenlong kept enough people in the villa.

He led several other subordinates to drive to look for Qi Xiaoting. Therefore, at 8:20, the video image of the commercial vehicle leaving Longshou Mountain appeared. After arriving at Youjiang Normal University at 9:00, Chao Wenlong used Zhang Lei’s mobile phone to lure Qi Xiaoting

Chao Wenlong came out, and then drove Qi Xiaoting's two-seater sports car to the bank and forced her to withdraw 500,000 yuan in cash. I think this 500,000 yuan in cash should have been given to Qi Xiaoting by Zhang Lei before. After withdrawing the money, Chao Wenlong took Qi Xiaoting directly

I returned to the villa in Longshou Mountain at about ten o'clock. At this time, Qu Yanan's two million had also arrived in Chao Wenlong's account. During this period of time, Zhang Lei had been at the Zhongyitang Villa in Longshou Mountain. And

When Chao Wenlong took Qi Xiaoting back to the villa, he called Qu Yanan to continue the intimidation and released Zhang Lei. However, Chao Wenlong forced Qi Xiaoting to stay."

"Qi Xiaoting was forced to stay?"

Xu Zhenguo blew out a puff of smoke and said: "Qi Xiaoting may have been obscene, molested or even sexually assaulted in the villa. Chao Wenlong did not take her out of the villa until eleven o'clock. However, Qi Xiaoting may have had various reasons for these things.

Think about it and avoid talking about it."

"How... is this possible? You can imagine so many plots just from the video of the commercial vehicle entering and exiting? Xu Zhenguo, are you talking nonsense here?" Liu Chuanxun could not accept Xu Zhenguo's reasoning, and he argued, "And Qu Yanan once said

Yes, she heard the sound of closing the window?"

"This just shows that Chao Wenlong was not in Zhongyitang Villa at that time."

"What did you say?" Liu Chuanxun stared at Xu Zhenguo in disbelief.

"You yourself have said that Chao Wenlong's Zhongyi Villa Hall is a prison used to detain others. Such a place must be isolated from the outside world as much as possible. Not only the curtains need to be made of chemical fiber materials that are 100% opaque, but the glass windows must also be extremely

It has good sound insulation and needs to be closed all year round. How can you hear the sound of closing the windows in a place like this?"

Before anyone could answer, Xu Zhenguo explained: "Qi Xiaoting claimed to have withdrawn 500,000 in cash at nine-twenty, and Qu Yanan heard the sound of closing the window at nine-thirty. This sound was actually the sound of closing the window.

The sound of the car door was just not that real from the receiver. Moreover, from 8:20 to 10:00, Zhang Lei's mobile phone only made three calls in total, to Qu Yanan and Qi Xiaoting.

And Yu Man. If my reasoning is correct, these three calls should have been made by Chao Wenlong himself. We can also re-question the three ladies on this issue to confirm this inference."

"In addition, Qi Xiaoting said that when she drove to Zhongyitang Villa after withdrawing the money, the building was empty. If what she said is true, this means that the cash of 500,000 yuan was not successfully delivered, and the money should still be in Qi Xiaoting's hands.

But have any of you seen this huge sum of money? Where is the money placed now? Is it in the car or in Qi Xiaoting’s own bag?"

"In addition, I also noticed that Qi Xiaoting is still barefoot. If you have searched Chao Wenlong's Zhongyitang villa, you should have found a pair of women's sandals that match Qi Xiaoting's foot size."

Liu Chuanxun carefully recalled that the investigators did find a pair of popular women's sandals in the trash can of Chao Wenlong's villa.

As for the 500,000 yuan in cash Qi Xiaoting mentioned, he had indeed never seen it with his own eyes.

"But we can't search the witness's vehicle..." Liu Chuanxun said to himself.

Xu Zhenguo suggested: "If possible, leave this task to Lin Wei and Zhou Quan. Although we are not members of the task force, we belong to the same municipal bureau after all, and the cases overlap with each other."

"This is also a feasible method." Liu Chuanxun nodded while hesitating.

Xu Zhenguo immediately arranged: "Lin Wei, Zhou Quan, and Qi Xiaoting will be left to you. If necessary, Qi Xiaoting's underwear or lower body can be used to extract semen and spots."

After Lin Wei and Zhou Quan left, only Xu Zhenguo, Liu Chuanxun and He Li were left.

After Xu Zhenguo finished smoking, he found a bottle of mineral water and drank most of it in one gulp.
