Gu Ming continued: "The second time he went out to do urgent errands, he went out after dinner, and it was getting dark. I saw a bearded taxi driver smoking in front of the hotel and waiting for guests. Xiao Qiang said a few words to him. In a few words, I got in the car. He didn’t come back until almost midnight that night. The next morning, I saw long scars on Xiao Qiang’s hands and arms, so I asked him what was wrong? He said it was It was scratched by a branch. I thought, when you went out to do errands, why did you get so many scratches from the branches? And the scars didn’t look like scratches from branches, but looked like scratches from a woman. After breakfast, the bearded driver was in front of the hotel again. Waiting for guests, I happened to be smoking in front of the door. He came over to lend me a light and we chatted for a few words. Out of curiosity, I asked him where did you take that handsome guy with long hair last night? He said I dragged him to the Hongye Hotel, where he went to hang out with girls. I said how did you know he went to hang out with girls. He said I dragged him there, and stopped in front of the hotel to wait for guests. But after a while, I saw him and his wife coming out of the hotel and walking towards the mountain. I asked the woman what she looked like? He said that she looked quite rich and was dressed luxuriously. She looked like a lady at first glance. She was wearing a ruby ring on her finger. It was very valuable at first glance. She also had a mole between her eyebrows. As soon as I heard that, I knew that this girl was Miao Li, and I wondered why she chased her to Hongye Valley? Why did she go up the mountain with Xiao Qiang at night?
Xiao Qiang will return to the city in the evening. I said I won't get home until late at night after leaving tonight. How tiring it is. Anyway, I've paid for tonight's hotel accommodation and can't get it back. It's better to sleep in the hotel for a good night and leave tomorrow morning. He said that he had to go back and ask Boss Miao for instructions in person if there was something urgent. He had to leave tonight, otherwise Boss Miao would be on a business trip and it would be difficult to interview him if something happened. I was thinking, didn’t you meet Boss Miao at the Hongye Hotel last night, and we went up the mountain together. Why did he say that he had to rush back to ask her for instructions if there was something urgent? I thought something was strange, but I didn't dare to ask any more questions. Soon after returning, there were reports that Miao Li committed suicide in Hongye Valley. Xiao Qiang said, didn't Boss Miao go on a business trip to Tianjin? Why did he end up in Hongye Valley? After hearing this, I thought to myself, didn’t you meet at Red Leaf Valley? You should know how she got to Red Leaf Valley! But I don’t dare to ask, I’m just thinking about it. Later I thought that Miao Li's death must be related to Xiao Qiang. Gu Ming looked at Tian Chunda and said: "You can go to Hongye Valley to investigate this matter, Hongye Hotel, or the bearded taxi driver. See if I am telling lies, and you can also find out the truth about Miao Li's death." . "
After talking to Gu Ming, Tian Chunda immediately sent criminal police to Hongye Valley to investigate the situation with the bearded taxi driver.
On the way to the Municipal Public Security Bureau, Xiao Qiang thought, didn't they arrest Gu Ming? Why should I be summoned again? Did the police discover something new? He walked into the door of the Public Security Bureau anxiously.
It was Tian Chunda and Hao Dong who interrogated him.
"On the night when Miao Li died, did you see Miao Li in Hongye Valley?"
Xiao Qiang was shocked when he heard this. Why didn't he ask about Bai Haiyan's case, but then brought up Miao Li's case? Did the police uncover any new clues? But he quickly composed himself.
The change in Xiao Qiang's expression was noticed by Tian Chunda, a seasoned crime-solving expert. Xiao Qiang's psychological activities revealed that he was related to Miao Li's death.
After calming down, Xiao Qiang pretended to be relaxed and replied: "I didn't see Miao Li when I was in Hongye Valley. I have no idea how she went to Hongye Valley, what she did there, and why she committed suicide there."
After hearing Xiao Qiang's answer, Tian Chunda stared at him and said, "Now I'm giving you a chance. You have to tell the truth."
"I tell the truth. I don't lie."
"Whether you are lying or not must be proven by the facts. We think you are lying."
"I didn't lie!" Xiao Qiang shouted.
"Listen to me! Why did you keep lying and saying that you didn't see Miao Li in Hongye Valley? It was because you killed Miao Li in Hongye Valley and you were afraid that your crime would be exposed." Tian Chunda asked Hao Dong to bring Gu Ming and the Hongye Hotel girl The waiter and bearded taxi driver's oral records were shown to Xiao Qiang.
Xiao Qiang lowered his head after looking at it. After a moment of silence, he then said, "I met Miao Li in Hongye Valley, but I didn't kill her."
"Then why don't you admit that you met Miao Li in Hongye Valley?" Tian Chunda asked.
"I'm afraid that my death and Miao Li's death will be involved, and I don't want to get into trouble."
"Then what are you and Miao Li doing in the mountains after dark?"
"Miao Li said she wanted to see the night view on the mountain, so I went with her."
"Then why did Miao Li die on the mountain that night?"
"We didn't stay in the same hotel. We broke up on the way down the mountain. I went back to the hotel where I was staying. I don't know how Miao Li died. Later I heard from her husband that Miao Li had a huge debt from gambling and was mentally disturbed. . She must have committed suicide because of this!"
"Then why did you have several blood marks on your hands and arms the next day?"
"When I went down the mountain because it was dark, I fell in the bushes and was scratched by a branch."
"You also read Gu Ming's dictation just now. He said that the blood marks on you don't look like scratches from branches, but like scratches from a woman."
Xiao Qiang said: "Give me some water, I'm very thirsty."
Hao Dong poured a glass of water for Xiao Qiang. He drank slowly, taking some time to finish the entire glass of water.
Tian Chunda said: "You have drunk enough water, you can talk now!"
Xiao Qiang spoke again: "I just read Gu Ming's dictation. He is talking nonsense and framed me!"
"Why did he frame you?"
"He teased Bai Haiyan, and I reprimanded him, but he harbored a grudge against me and took the opportunity to frame me."
"Is there such a thing? Are you making up a story?"
"I'm not making this up. One time Gu Ming came to my house to repair the sewer. After the repair, he smiled and said to Bai Haiyan, 'The sewer must be unclogged frequently to make it smooth. The passages for people must also be unclogged frequently, especially women." Bai Haiyan felt that he was so The words were not authentic, but for the sake of face, I didn't say anything to him. Another time, Bai Haiyan was making glutinous rice balls at home, and Gu Ming was helping the cook, so he stepped forward and patted Bai Haiyan's butt, saying that there was glutinous rice flour on her butt. Bai Haiyan Although Haiyan was unhappy at the time, she didn't say anything. But the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, so she told me about the two molestations. After hearing this, I was very angry and wanted to fire Gu Ming. He knelt down and begged me. I apologized and said that I would never dare to do it again. I also felt that it was not good to make this matter public and let people laugh at it, so I suppressed it."
After hearing this, Tian Chunda felt that Xiao Qiang was really good at arguing. As expected of someone who graduated from college and worked as a manager. He also thought that if he wanted to completely expose Xiao Qiang's crime and leave him speechless, he would have to produce more powerful evidence, especially physical evidence. After walking out of the interrogation room, he told Hao Dong about this idea. Hao Dong said that Xiao Qiang can be convicted now with just a few witnesses. Tian Chunda said that in order to establish the case and completely silence Xiao Qiang, he still had to search for evidence again. The best place to produce evidence is at the scene, so we should also search the scene of Miao Li's death. Hao Dong said that more than half a year has passed and all traces of the scene may have been eliminated. Tian Chunda said that there may also be physical evidence that cannot be eliminated, such as buttons, hair, etc. Hao Dong said that the local police station had already searched the scene. Tian Chunda said, I think they did not handle this case carefully enough.
Tian Chunda led his men to Hongye Valley again to search the scene of Miao Li's death. But on the day we arrived, we searched all afternoon until dark, but found nothing.
At dawn the next day, we went up the mountain to search again. We searched until dark, but no more suspicious items or evidence were found.
Xiao Qiang's cousin Xiao Long is now just like Xiao Qiang, eager to get rid of the "baggage" attached to him. But now Wu Chen was admitted to his hospital because he was anxious and angry. This was an opportunity to take action. What he didn't expect was that Shi Yunfeng would help him.
On this day, Tianshi Yunfeng came to his office quietly, closed the door tightly, and whispered to him: "Are you in big trouble? Do you want to get rid of the burden?"
Xiao Long looked at her hesitantly: "You..."
"Yes, I know everything about you. I have been paying close attention to you."
"Then what do you think we should do?" Xiao Long was also eager to find a helper now.
"If we want to get rid of this 'burden' of Wu Chen, we have to do it while she is still in the hospital."
Xiao Long nodded slightly.
Shi Yunfeng said again: "I can help you."
"You..." Xiao Long looked at her with some disbelief and some gratitude.
"Yes." Shi Yunfeng nodded firmly. "Your father entrusted me to take care of you before he died. For your father's entrustment, for you, and for the sake of this hospital, I want to help you. Cheng Wuchen will do it now that he is hospitalized here."
Xiao Long thought, she is indeed a woman and does not consider the consequences. She must have thought that it would be easier to kill Wu Chen now that he was within reach. But what happens next?
"But," he said, "if I kill her here, I will probably be exposed." He expressed his concerns.
"No." Shi Yunfeng shook his head, "Wu Chen is in a special situation. He has neither a husband nor children. When it comes to relatives, the only one who has a bad relationship with her is her brother-in-law. If she dies, it will be too late for her brother-in-law to be happy."
Only then did Xiao Long realize that this woman was more thoughtful than him, and she wanted to take advantage of Wu Chen's special situation.
"What to do?" he asked tentatively.
"She sleeps alone in Ward 8. The wards opposite and next door are all empty. I have injected her with a sedative. She will sleep until tomorrow morning. If she wakes up, she will get another injection."
Hearing this, Xiao Long was shocked. Could it be that Shi Yunfeng planned to use this method to keep Wu Chen sleeping?
"We're not going to kill her now. We're just going to inject her with a sedative to reduce trouble. In this way, it's okay to let her sleep for twelve or thirteen hours."
Xiao Long became very silent for a moment.
"We can use this time to call her brother-in-law over and let him come to visit."
Xiao Long listened silently.
"Her brother-in-law will definitely wonder why she came to the hospital without saying hello. At that time, we will say that she suddenly felt uncomfortable while walking on the road and came to the hospital to see a doctor. After the examination, it was found that her heart was abnormal, so we left her alone for the time being. Arrange to stay in the ward for observation, and then we will find a suitable opportunity to inject her with quinidine. As you know, quinidine is an antiarrhythmic drug, but improper use can cause cerebral infarction or myocardial infarction."
Xiao Long thought her words were ridiculous, "Do you think this naive assumption will not be seen through? It's so stupid. You can say she has a heart disease and inject her with sedatives. It doesn't matter if a layman doesn't understand, but What about after the injection? If she dies, a doctor’s certificate is not enough. Only an autopsy by a forensic doctor can complete the relevant legal procedures.”
