Han Cheng and Barre came to the approximate location where the hotel resident saw the white SUV parked. After careful inspection, they found a clear tire mark.
Based on the tire marks, Barre found out that they were the tire marks left by a certain brand of car made in China.
But there are so many cars of this brand in Licheng that it is almost impossible to find someone with a car.
Although the clue of the car is of little help to the case for the time being, once they locate the suspect, this clue may play a role in assisting in corroboration.
Another group of police sent to investigate Kelly's social relationships soon made a surprising discovery, and they identified a suspect.
Kelly's ex-husband, Chadel, is a veteran who is now engaged in car repair work and opened a car repair shop in Li City.
Chadder met Kelly when she was a young actress.
The two got married not long after they met. Kelly was 24 and Chadel was 28 at the time.
Kelly has always admired soldiers, so she also admired Chadel very much, and could even be said to be obsessed with it.
But she didn't expect that a few years after they got married, Chader's temperament changed suddenly and he began to like drinking. After drinking, he would often beat her violently.
Kelly couldn't stand her husband's domestic violence and decisively chose to divorce Chadel.
After the divorce, Kelly became more and more popular in the entertainment industry and became a well-known star in F country.
Now that Chadel and Kelly have been divorced for 4 years, why do the police still suspect that Chadel is the murderer.
It turned out that although the two had divorced long ago, after Kelly became popular, Chadel often harassed and threatened Kelly and asked Kelly for money.
Because Chadel had indecent photos of her and Chadel before, Kelly had to give Chadel some money every time.
The police found that Kelly's cell phone received a call from Chader the night before Kelly was killed.
According to the surveillance at the door of Selcy Hotel, Kelly left the hotel alone shortly after receiving Chader's call. The time at that time was 9:10 pm.
Kelly never came back to the hotel after that.
In other words, Chader may be the last person to contact Kelly, so he is highly suspicious.
When the police went to find Chadel to investigate, he disappeared.
This further aggravated the police's suspicion of Chader.
The police suspected that Chadel was absconding out of fear of crime, so they searched his residence.
As a result, a sharp military machete was found in Chader's residence, and Kelly's blood was also extracted from the machete.
After forensic identification, the machete was the murder weapon that split Kelly in half.
And police also found a white SUV in Chadel's garage.
The evidence is conclusive!
Barre immediately issued a wanted warrant, and the entire city searched for Chader.
Now that the case has been investigated, it seems that as long as Chadel is caught, the case can be closed.
However, Han Cheng felt that all this seemed a bit too smooth!
He always feels... things don't seem that simple!
"Han Cheng, what's wrong?"
Seeing Han Cheng's solemn expression, Barei asked.
"Chief Barre, don't you think this case was solved a little too smoothly?"
"Actually, many cases are very simple! Uncensored cases only account for a minority. Officer Han Cheng, don't think about it too much. Thank you for helping solve the case this time! We have cleared your friends of their suspicions. You can join them. You’re back to Dragon Kingdom, we will help you arrange air tickets!”
"Thanks!"
Seeing that Barre had already said this, Han Cheng didn't say much!
The next day, Han Cheng, Liu Yifei, and Shang Man arrived at Licheng Airport, preparing to fly back to Long Kingdom.
Sheriff Barre came specially to see Han Cheng off.
While waiting to board the plane, Barre and Han Cheng chatted.
"I heard that your Dragon Country has a lot of delicious food and beautiful places. I really want to visit it!" Barre said.
"We people from the Dragon Kingdom are very hospitable. Come to me when you come to the Dragon Kingdom, and I'll show you delicious food!" Han Cheng said with a smile.
Barre laughed and patted Han Cheng on the shoulder, "Okay! It's a deal!"
"It's a pity that you have to go back in a hurry this time, otherwise I can take you to have fun in Licheng! We have many beauties in Licheng!"
...
"Chief Barre, is there any news about Chadel?"
"Speaking of this Chadel, he is so arrogant and hateful! He even sent a letter to our police station to provoke!"
"What kind of letter did he send?" Han Cheng asked after thinking for a moment.
"Look, there are only a few sentences in this letter!"
Barre said and showed Han Cheng a photo on his phone.
The photo was taken of a letter sent by "Chader" to the police station.
I saw what was written in the letter: Stupid policeman, I have left country F, you have the guts to come and arrest me!
The letter was signed by Chader.
"Chief Barre, we have all been deceived! Chadel is not the murderer! He may be dead!"
Han Cheng frowned and said suddenly.
"What?" Barre's face was startled, and then became very ugly.
Barre originally thought that Chader was the murderer of the Black Dahlia case, and he was about to report to his superiors to claim credit!
Now Han Cheng has completely rejected their inference. If what Han Cheng said is true, then they will have to re-investigate the case.
Barre looked at Han Cheng blankly, "Han Cheng, why are you so sure that Chader is not the murderer?"
"It's because of this letter sent to the police station! Chief Barre, you didn't notice one detail. This letter was printed!"
"Notice it! Is there something wrong with this?"
"The problem is huge! According to our previous inference, the murderer should be a person who despises the police!"
"That's right! So it's very consistent with his style for him to send provocative letters!"
"The content of the letter is consistent! But the way he printed out the content is not consistent! Chief Barry, think about it, such an arrogant person, when the police already know his identity, he will still Are you afraid that the police will recognize his handwriting?”
"Don't be afraid! Han Cheng, you mean someone pretended to be Chader and sent a letter to the police?" Barre suddenly realized.
"Yes, it is like that!"
Han Cheng nodded, "So, this makes it even more certain that the murderer is not Chader, and Chader is most likely to have been killed by the real mastermind!"
"Then this murderer is too cunning! We were led by him from the beginning!" Barre gritted his teeth.
At this time, a broadcast came from the airport: "Passengers heading to Dragon Kingdom, please be aware that your flight C3323 will be checked in for boarding in five minutes. I wish you a pleasant journey!"
"Cousin! The plane is about to take off! Let's go!" Liu Yifei came over and reminded Han Cheng.
Han Cheng nodded and prepared to say goodbye to Barre.
Seeing that Han Cheng was about to leave, Barre became anxious.
If Han Cheng hadn't seen the subtle clues in this case, he might have been deceived by the real murderer.
But when Han Cheng left like this, he had no idea about solving this strange case.
He feels that only Han Cheng can solve this case now.
So, Barrei pulled Han Cheng and said, "Han Cheng, can we take a step to talk?"
Han Cheng was stunned and nodded.
Then he and Barre walked aside, with their backs to Liu Yifei.
"Han Cheng, I would like to ask you to stay and help us solve this case! I can give you all the bonus for solving the case!" Barre looked sincere.
In country F, police officers also receive bonuses for solving cases, and they are quite generous.
Seeing that Barre was so sincere, Han Cheng couldn't bear to refuse.
He looked at Barre and then at Liu Yifei, who was waiting to get on the plane with him, and for a moment he really didn't know how to make a decision.
