Once the team leader and Mr. Wu realized that this seemingly ordinary evidence was ironclad evidence, they were all pleasantly surprised. Only then did they understand why Su Mu dared to show his cards, because he had a strong backhand.
When Qian Li was denying that he was on the roof, he had already fallen into Su Mu's trap, and now even if he wanted to refute it, it was impossible.
For a moment, everyone including the caravan and the provincial government all stared at Qian Li, like watching a beast caught in a trap, with joy in the coldness.
But Qian Li's body trembled involuntarily under the gaze of everyone, he knew that once the evidence of Su Mu came to light, he would be finished, completely ruined.
Too careless!
It was only then that Qian Li realized that he had underestimated the young policeman in front of him. He was the powerful hunter lurking in the dark, and he was already ready to deliver a fatal blow to him at any time.
It's ridiculous that I laughed at him before as a silver-like wax gun head, thinking that he is an incompetent person.
At this moment, Qian Li realized that it was him who was really ridiculous, and he had already fallen into someone's trap without knowing it.
For a while, Qian Lihui's intestines were green, but in the face of this result, even if he tried his best to quibble now, it would not help. It would be better to confess simply, and perhaps reduce the sentence.
"Tell me, you can't justify yourself anymore, and it's futile to quibble!" Su Mu looked at Qian Li and said lightly.
Qian Li smiled wryly: "Do I have other options? Okay, I'll explain!"
"It is true that I destroyed the traces on the roof, but I did not kill Secretary Zhou. My daughter was kidnapped on the way home from the night shift last night. Their request was very simple, that I destroy all traces on the roof in the morning. "
"I only have this one daughter. I dare not call the police or disobey the other party. So this morning I went to the rooftop on the second floor and destroyed all traces."
"You didn't kill Secretary Zhou?" Not only the team leader and others, but also Su Mu were startled this time. They didn't expect that Qian Li was not the real murderer.
"Is what you said true?" Elder Wu asked coldly.
"I dare not hide anything. If you don't believe me, you can ask my daughter and my wife. After I destroyed the traces, my daughter was released and they are all at home now."
Although Qian Li's face was ugly, Su Mu found through observation that he didn't seem to be lying.
The team leader, Mr. Wu and the others looked at each other, and then they all looked at Su Mu, asking for his opinion.
Su Mu said: "This matter needs to be investigated carefully. If what Qian Li said is true, it is also a way to catch the real murderer."
Both the team leader and Mr. Wu nodded, and the team leader immediately asked Mr. Wu to lead a few men to investigate this clue.
"Mr. Wu, if you encounter trouble during the investigation, you can ask your counterparts in Jiangbin City to cooperate and help. I will greet their person in charge later."
Before Mr. Wu left, the team leader told him.
Mr. Wu nodded. The matter was urgent. He didn't stop, and immediately took someone to investigate the kidnapping of Qian Li's daughter.
"What traces and characteristics did you find on the roof?" Su Mu asked Qian Li.
"The drag print, there is a drag print more than two meters long, and there is a button. The button was specially asked by the kidnappers for me to find." Qian Li replied honestly.
"Buttons?"
"Well, a black button." Qian Li replied.
"Where's the button?" asked the leader immediately.
Qian Li shook his head: "I threw the button into the garbage can, and it must have been transported to the garbage station for incineration by now."
"Damn it!" Hearing this, the team leader couldn't help cursing. If the button hadn't been thrown away, I believe there should be fingerprints on it, and maybe the murderer could be caught.
Because there was no button on Secretary Zhou's clothes, the button should belong to the murderer, and the reason why it fell was probably ripped off when he killed Secretary Zhou.
It's just too late to say anything now.
"Caravan, immediately ask your colleagues in Jiangbin City to go to the garbage station to look for this button, maybe you can find it." The leader immediately said to the caravan.
The caravan immediately agreed, turned around and went out to order the Jiangbin City Police Department to search for it.
But Su Mu sighed and couldn't help shaking his head. Even if a small button has not been burned, it is too difficult to find it. Even if it is found, the button is pressed and rubbed by other garbage. .
However, a dead horse is regarded as a living horse doctor, and even if there is a one-ten-thousandth possibility, it is necessary to guarantee a ten-thousandth effort.
It's just that despite saying so, seeing the dawn of the case, but then shattered, everyone is inevitably a little frustrated.
"Give me the mobile phone number the kidnapper called you." Su Mu said to Qian Li again.
Qian Li immediately took out his mobile phone, then found an unmarked number, and handed the mobile phone to Su Mu.
Su Mu picked it up and saw that the mobile phone number did not belong to Jiangbin City. He found that Qian Li answered the mobile phone at [-]:[-] in the middle of the night, and called the mobile phone at [-]:[-] in the morning.
Apparently, the murderer found that he had lost the button when he killed. He was afraid that the investigators would find that the first scene was on the roof, so he immediately kidnapped Qian Li's daughter and forced her to destroy the traces on the roof.
As for why the murderer didn't do it himself, firstly, it was very late at night, and it was not easy to find a button;
It's just that the murderer never expected that Su Mu's gaze was like a torch and he deduced like a god. Through some details, he not only found the first scene, but also followed the clues to find the accomplice Qian Li.
Su Mu looked at the phone number and thought about it, then dialed it directly.
"Beep beep", the other party's mobile phone shows that it has been turned off.
"What's the phone number? I'll have someone look it up." The team leader next to him immediately asked.
Su Mu handed the phone to the team leader: "It's the phone number of the provincial capital."
The team leader took the mobile phone to check the number, then took out his police phone, made a call, and asked the other end to check the mobile phone number.
The team leader obviously had a high status in the provincial department, so he quickly agreed.
Seeing that he couldn't ask any more questions about Qian Li, Su Mu ordered Qian Li to be sent to the detention center for custody.
After Qian Li was taken away, the team leader and others were at a loss. Now that they were waiting for the results of various investigations, they had almost nothing to do.
After the caravan came back, Su Mu pondered, "Actually, we still have information to check."
"Oh?" The team leader and others immediately looked at Su Mu.
Su Mu said slowly: "That is to start with what Secretary Zhou lost. The reason why the murderer killed Secretary Zhou was obviously to get his things. We can start from this aspect."
When the team leader and others heard this, they all turned to look at the caravan, but said nothing.
What exactly Secretary Zhou lost, the caravan kept secret about it and refused to tell everyone.
Seeing everyone looking at him, the caravan thought for a while and said, "This is a serious matter, and I don't dare to make the decision. I will talk about it after I ask my superiors for instructions!"
Su Mu understood the difficulty of the caravan, turned his head and said to the leader: "Let's take this time to check the rooms of the suspects to see if there are any clothes with buttons that have fallen off."
Chapter 258 The Garbage Truck
Hearing that Su Mu wanted to search everyone's room, the caravan who was about to report immediately asked his subordinates to take all the remaining six suspects to the living room on the second floor.
At the same time, let his subordinates continue to monitor them in the living room, so that Su Mu and others can let go of a thorough search.
Su Mu and others searched the rooms of the six suspects separately. They searched very carefully, not only searching for the clothes with the buttons off, but also checking for other suspicious points.
Half an hour later, the crowd gathered together again, and they all shook their heads, obviously not finding anything.
However, Su Mu and the others did not show any signs of disappointment. If they could easily find suspicious points, then it would not fit the character of the murderer to be cunning.
At this moment, the caravan came over, his brows were stretched, and there was a hint of joy on his face.
When Su Mu saw it, he immediately knew that his superiors should agree to his disclosure of the lost things. Sure enough, the caravan came up and said: "The killing of Secretary Zhou is probably related to a blueprint he lost."
"Drawings?" The leader looked at the caravan.
"Well," the caravan nodded, "A blueprint. I can't say what the blueprint is, but it is an important research result. If it is lost, it will be very troublesome."
After the team leader and others heard this, they didn't speak for a while, and Su Mu pondered: "After killing Secretary Zhou, the murderer must have taken away the blueprint while setting up a fake scene in his room, but how did he send the blueprint out? of?"
The caravan nodded hurriedly: "Yes, every night, all the external iron doors of our small building will be locked, and the key is with me. It is impossible for him to send out the blueprint."
But the blueprint was not in the room of the six suspects at this time, which meant that the murderer had actually sent the blueprint out.
Everyone frowned on this, wondering how the murderer did it.
At this time, the Jiangbin Municipal Bureau called the caravan and told the caravan on the other end of the phone that all the garbage delivered this morning had been incinerated.
The caravan's mobile phone was turned on hands-free, and everyone frowned even more when they heard it.
"Another clue was broken!" The caravan hung up the phone with an ugly face.
"Garbage?" Su Mu suddenly remembered something, raised his eyebrows, "I know how the murderer sent out the drawings."
"How to send it out?" The caravan asked quickly.
"It is to use garbage. As long as you put the drawings in the garbage bag, the garbage collector will naturally take it away."
The caravan slapped its head and couldn't help saying: "That's right, the trash can is outside the door of the small building. Every morning I open the door, and then Qian Li will pour yesterday's garbage into the trash can, and then it will be transported away by the garbage truck."
"If the murderer stuffed the drawings into the garbage during the period, Qian Li didn't guard against this, and threw them away together with the garbage, so that the murderer's goal was achieved almost without anyone noticing."
After the team leader heard Su Mu's inference, the caravan added the possibility of the murderer doing this, and his face became agitated again.
Just as the so-called willows and flowers brighten another village, just when he thought the case had reached a dead end again, he didn't expect Su Mu to find suspicious points again, and thus had clues for tracing.
For this, he had to admire Su Mu very much.
Up to now, the case has been full of twists and turns, and it has fallen into a dead end several times, all because of Su Mu's analytical ability against the sky, so he turned the tide and once again gave the case a direction for investigation.
"But..." a technician from the provincial department asked suspiciously: "Did Qian Li not notice when the drawing was thrown into the trash can? Or did he deliberately conceal it and didn't say anything about it just now?"
Su Mu pondered: "Qian Li probably doesn't know. According to his behavior just now, it doesn't seem like he deliberately concealed something from us. In fact, the blueprint can be torn up and thrown into the trash can, so that others won't notice. Just put it together."
The caravan who said something said nodded again and again: "What Su said is right, it's totally fine."
"I'll have Qian Li interrogated again." The team leader immediately took out his police phone and called the comrades who escorted Qian Li to the detention center, asking them to interrogate Qian Li suddenly and ask the matter clearly.
"In addition, check whether there are any clothes or fabrics in the garbage that Qian Li dumped today, to see if the murderer threw away the clothes that were to be unbuttoned." Su Mu immediately frowned.
The team leader agreed, and then relayed Su Mu's words to the other party.
Not long after the call ended, the phone called from the other end. The team leader exchanged a few words with the other party, and then hung up the police phone.
"The facts are exactly as Su expected. According to Qian Li's recollection, he did find some scraps of paper, but he didn't pay attention and threw them away along with the trash."
"Also..." The team leader paused after saying this, and then said, "There are no clothes or fabrics in the trash."
When Su Mu heard it, his eyes flickered.
After hearing what the team leader said, everyone became excited, and the case came to light again.
"The rubbish has been burned this morning. The murderer's accomplices must have resorted to a method halfway to take the blueprints from the garbage truck." The team leader immediately judged.
"Old Yang." The team leader said to an expert without waiting for Su Mu's order this time: "You immediately take someone to check the driver of the garbage truck and ask him if there is any abnormality on the way to transport the garbage. In addition, the driver himself Check it out too, in case he is an accomplice of the murderer!"
Lao Yang selected two comrades without saying a word, and the three hurried out of the small building to check the garbage truck.
Seeing that the team leader's arrangements had not been missed, Su Mu nodded, indicating that he could do so.
Seeing that Su Mu had no objection to his behavior, the team leader felt complacent for a while. He didn't realize that there was something wrong with his complacent expression at the moment, but the caravan and others were extremely surprised when they watched from the sidelines.
You must know that the team leader is also an expert from the provincial department, and now he feels elated because of Su Mu's action, which almost no one would believe.
Obviously at this time, the team leader had already admired Su Mu's ability to solve the case, so he was very happy with his subconscious praise.
This is the joy of being recognized by the masters, and many people have this mentality.
Not long after Lao Yang left the small building, Mr. Wu brought someone back.
When everyone looked at the faces of Mr. Wu and his party, they knew that their investigation was not going well.
"Old Wu, how's it going? Did you find anything?" asked the team leader.
Mr. Wu shook his head: "Qian Li is right, his daughter was indeed kidnapped last night, but since she was kidnapped, her eyes have been blindfolded, she didn't see the kidnapper's face, and even the kidnapper's voice was deliberately choked With a throat."
The team leader nodded. The murderer and the others planned carefully. They should also think about how to cut off the clues if Qian Li is exposed.
It's just that if this is the case, we can only count on Lao Yang and the others to track down the garbage truck. If Lao Yang doesn't find out, this case will fall into a dead end again.
Chapter 259 The Secret in the Video
As for the mobile phone number that the provincial department investigated, according to the feedback, it was no accident that the murderer's accomplices stole other people's ID cards, and no valuable clues were found at all.
Everyone began to wait for news from Lao Yang, and about an hour later, Lao Yang called.
The team leader immediately dialed the voice on the phone, and the old Yang spoke in a strange tone, unable to tell whether it was joy or frustration.
"We found the driver of the garbage truck. According to the inquiry, he told us that he had an accident on the way to the garbage incineration site..."
"Accident?" The team leader and the others cheered up, and the team leader immediately said, "Lao Yang, tell me what kind of accident it was."
"According to the driver, the accident was very accidental. His car collided with a Lavida, but no one was injured. The Lavida was responsible for either party, so the other party just got out of the car and said a few words to the driver before leaving. .”
After hearing this, the team leader immediately said: "Since this is the case, the owner of the LaVida is very suspicious. Did you ask the driver to draw his portrait? And what is the license plate of the LaVida?"
Lao Yang said: "The driver said that the LaVida did not have a license plate number. We are now in the Criminal Police Brigade of Jiangbin City. The image has been prepared and I will send it to you right away."
