Backlog team, conference room.
Han Cheng and everyone are discussing how to find the suspect through half a fingerprint.
Suddenly, the conference room door opened.
It was Mr. Li, and he looked nervous.
"Han Cheng, take your people from the case backlog team with me. Qu Xiao is dead!"
"What! Qu Xiao is dead?" Han Cheng and Yu Shan were surprised.
They met Qu Xiao a few days ago. She was still fine at that time. Why did she die suddenly?
"How did you die?" Han Cheng asked quickly.
"The police station said it was a suicide. Let our second team go and check to make sure. I think the deceased is Qu Xiao. Thinking that you are investigating the corpse dismemberment case in Nanjing recently, I wanted you to go and have a look!" Mr. Li said.
"Okay, master, let's go together!"
When Han Cheng and his party came to the downstairs of Qu Xiao's house, the perimeter of the cordon was filled with onlookers. Qu Xiao's son Song Wei burst into tears and was comforted by a group of relatives.
When he saw Han Cheng, he suddenly rushed to Han Cheng like crazy and grabbed Han Cheng's hand: "Officer Han, my mother can't commit suicide. You must help me find out the truth!"
Han Cheng didn't expect Song Wei to be so excited.
"Calm down first, don't worry! We will carefully investigate the scene..."
After hearing what Han Cheng said, Song Wei let go of Han Cheng's hand.
In fact, on the way here, Han Cheng was also wondering about Qu Xiao's suicide.
He had met Qu Xiao several times, and he felt that Qu Xiao was gentle, virtuous, and cheerful.
How could such a person commit suicide?
Could it be that he was stimulated by something?
Arriving at Qu Xiao's home, Lan Ru performed a preliminary autopsy on the body and said: "Based on the preliminary identification of the body, it is suspected that the death was caused by an overdose of sleeping pills!"
Han Cheng looked at the doors and windows. They were intact and there were no signs of prying.
Then he checked the surveillance video of the corridor, elevator, and corridor entrance and exit of the floor.
It was found that from the time when Qu Xiao entered the house until Song Wei came back from school and found Qu Xiao dead, no one had entered Qu Xiao's house.
Various evidences indicate that Qu Xiao committed suicide.
A suicide note left by Qu Xiao was also found on Qu Xiao's bedside.
That's what the suicide note said.
For thirty years, I have always felt guilty. If it hadn't been for me, Xiao Aiqin would not have gone out alone. If she had not gone out alone, she would not have died so miserably.
.........
Do not owe anyone anything. After my flesh is destroyed, I will see God outside of the flesh.
Qu Xiao's death was apparently caused by her committing suicide because she felt guilty about Xiao Aiqin's tragic death.
But Han Cheng still felt that there were many doubts here.
Doubtful point one: If Qu Xiao really committed suicide because of guilt, why didn't she commit suicide thirty years ago when Xiao Aiqin died? On the contrary, it was not until thirty years later that I thought of committing suicide.
Generally speaking, in thirty years, painful memories will fade away little by little.
The second suspicion is that Qu Xiao and Xiao Aiqin are just ordinary classmates, not even best friends. She has no reason to give up her current relatives because of someone she is not very close to.
Han Cheng felt that something must have happened in the middle, which made Qu Xiao get into trouble and choose to commit suicide.
In order to learn more details about Qu Xiao's life before his suicide, Han Cheng asked Song Wei.
His mood has calmed down a lot now.
"Officer Han, do you believe that my mother committed suicide?" Song Wei looked at Han Cheng blankly.
"Your mother's death has been confirmed to be a suicide. Please trust the judgment of our police, but I think your mother's suicide is very suspicious. There are some things I want to find out from you!"
"Officer Han, you are the detective of Nan City. I know you will not think this is an ordinary suicide and close the case hastily!"
"So, you also think your mother's suicide is unusual?"
Song Wei nodded fiercely: "I know my mother. She is a person with a gentle personality and loves life. My father drives a truck and is traveling all year round. However, the relationship between them is very good. Although I am sometimes naughty, I am rarely naughty. To make my mother angry, our family can be said to live a relatively happy life, so I can’t figure out how my mother could be willing to abandon us and commit suicide. I think someone must have instigated my mother to commit suicide!”
Song Wei's words made Han Cheng's eyes light up.
"Why do you have such thoughts? Has your mother done anything unusual during this time?"
"Yes, and it's very abnormal!" Song Wei nodded.
"What do you think!"
"My mother was not religious before, but during this time she has been holding a Bible and mumbling to herself!"
Han Cheng suddenly remembered the last sentence in Qu Xiao's suicide note: "Don't owe anyone anything. After my skin and flesh are destroyed, I will see God outside of my body."
At the beginning, he felt that this sentence was a bit familiar, but he just couldn't remember where he had seen it.
After Song Wei said this, he suddenly realized that this sentence came from the Bible.
"Have you ever asked your mother why she suddenly became religious?"
"I asked! She said she didn't believe in religion before because there was no one to guide her!"
"So, someone instigated her to believe in religion? Who is this person? Have you seen him?"
"I don't know who this person is and I have never seen him, but do you believe that there is really such a person who contacts me often? I often see my mother hiding in the room and talking on the phone!"
Hearing what Song Wei said, Han Cheng also felt that Qu Xiao's behavior was a bit abnormal.
So he asked Shen Mao to retrieve Qu Xiao's recent call records.
It turns out that there is a virtual phone number that has been in frequent contact with Qu Xiao recently, sometimes even four or five times a day, and each call lasted more than ten minutes.
Unfortunately, the source of such virtual calls cannot be traced at all.
This clue is broken!
But it at least proves that someone has been controlling Qu Xiao through phone calls recently.
Qu Xiao's suicide was most likely planned by this mastermind.
But why did the mastermind do this? What is his purpose?
