The investigation of the case has been going very smoothly until now.
They found Xu Mo's motive and witnesses. He was arrested at the crime scene. It can be said that the witnesses and physical evidence are complete.
Although there are still many doubts that have not been solved, the general facts of the case have become clear. Although the case cannot be closed, the outcome should not change.
But Fang Mu always felt that everything was going too smoothly.
It was as if someone was guiding them step by step in investigating the case.
Lacking sufficient motive for the murder, Song Jiajia and the former victim came out.
Witnesses were lacking, and they found them, many of them.
There is a lack of direct evidence, and surveillance footage is available.
It seems that whatever they lack can be easily obtained with a little investigation.
Among all the clues and evidence, the biggest problem lies with Yang Mei.
But now Yang Mei's matter has been clarified. After the incident, she took leave from the hospital and disappeared.
The last link has also been added.
In the face of so much evidence, even if Xu Mo insisted that he had amnesia and could not remember anything, it would change the fact that he was the biggest suspect in the 404 case.
As long as the police figure out how Xu Mo was injured, they can basically establish the fact that Xu Mo committed murder.
As if to verify this guess, the colleagues responsible for investigating Yang Mei came back with the latest news.
According to hospital surveillance, Yang Mei had been out on the night of the incident.
The time of going out was a few minutes before midnight on the 4th.
This was originally the time for nurses to do ward rounds, but Yang Mei moved the time for ward rounds by more than half an hour on the grounds that the water pipe at home broke.
Before midnight, the ward rounds ended, and Yang Mei received a call again, so she hurriedly left the hospital.
It wasn't until almost three in the morning that I rushed back to the hospital out of breath and started my third ward round with my colleagues.
When Liu Tao heard the news, his pupils shrank suddenly and he murmured: "At this point in time..."
Fang Mu said with a solemn expression: "The first time Xu Mo was injured was around 12:30, and the second time Xu Mo was injured was around 2 o'clock in the morning. This was just enough time to rush to the scene of the crime from Rende Hospital. , in this case..."
Liu Tao answered: "Xu Mo was injured, and the reason why he was injured twice was found."
"Next, we only need to find Yang Mei and interrogate her. As long as she admits that she left the hospital, not to go home, but to rush to the crime scene and injure Xu Mo, then Xu Mo's crime of murder will be completely proven. ”
Fang Mu frowned, with a serious expression, and nodded heavily.
Liu Tao, who was extremely excited just now because he found new clues, could not be happy at this time.
Everything seemed perfect and the case could be closed, but both of them felt that this was actually a trap.
A carefully designed game specifically for Xu Mo.
It was only then that they completely believed that there really was a fourth person at the scene.
As for whether this person is the murderer of case 404, it is currently unknown, but it is very likely.
However, new problems also arise.
How can they prove that a fourth person was present?
It is obviously impossible to rely on Xu Mo's confession.
Not to mention that Xu Mo is currently in a state of amnesia. Even if he does not have amnesia, Xu Mo's words are not very credible when he is about to be found guilty of the murder.
All things considered, if you want to prove Xu Mo's innocence, you must first prove the presence of a fourth person at the scene and provide sufficient evidence to prove that this person is the real murderer and Xu Mo is just a scapegoat.
After thinking this, Fang Mu raised his head and looked at Liu Tao, and both could see the solemnity and helplessness in each other's eyes.
"Who did this kid offend? Are they going to go to such great lengths to kill him?"
Fang Mu shook his head and said he didn't know.
Liu Tao continued to speculate: "Could he be the real culprit in the 628 case?"
"But why? Why would he do this?"
"Did Xu Mo find out something?"
Liu Tao was puzzled by this.
In the end, he could only sigh and said in a solemn tone: "If we cannot prove that there is a fourth person at the scene within the time limit, when the time limit passes, the higher-ups will send people. They will not be as gentle as us. In the face of all kinds of evidence, Xu Mo is very likely..."
Having said this, Liu Tao shook his head and sighed again.
Fang Mu glanced at Liu Tao, nodded silently, and then said: "If you want to prove whether there is a fourth person at the scene, Yang Mei is the key. As long as she is found, many mysteries can be solved."
"Yes, but what I'm worried about is that Yang Mei may not be missing, but may be killed."
Fang Mu shook his head and said: "If this is really a trap, Yang Mei will not be killed. At least she will be safe until the case is settled."
"What I'm worried about now is that Yang Mei is still alive and will be found by us, but the time of finding should be on the last day of the deadline. At that time, she only needs to insist that Xu Mo's alibi is false, and the She also helped to forge the injury, so..."
Liu Tao answered: "If this is really the case, then Xu Mo is completely finished."
Although he didn't want to admit it, Fang Mu still nodded.
"What we can do now is find Yang Mei this morning and open a breakthrough in her."
Liu Tao strongly agreed with Fang Mu's statement.
As a result, the latest order was quickly issued: use all available police forces to search for Yang Mei.
After the order was issued, Liu Tao couldn't help but ask: "Tell me, what would Xu Mo do if he knew this? What would he do?"
Fang Mu remained silent.
Because he doesn't know either.
…
…
The Third People's Hospital.
"It's time to change the dressing."
A female nurse, accompanied by police officers, walked into the ward.
Xu Mo, who had his eyes closed and was thinking about the problem, was slightly startled when he heard the sound.
Immediately, he opened his eyes and looked at the female nurse who was preparing things, and thought to himself: [Replacement? 】
Xu Mo was a little confused, but he didn't show it.
Following the nurse's instructions, Xu Mo sat up from the bed, and the nurse began to remove the gauze.
On the other side, police officer Wang Kai is inspecting medical equipment.
In fact, he didn't understand these things either. He just looked through them briefly and ignored them.
The gauze was quickly removed, and after cleaning it up, the nurse picked up the medicines prepared in advance from the medicine shelf and prepared to give Xu Mo medicine.
Right now.
Xu Mo suddenly said: "Why is there a change today? Where is Nurse Wei?"
As soon as these words came out, the nurse's movements paused slightly and then returned to normal.
"Nurse Wei is off today, let me take her place."
With that said, she was about to give Xu Mo medicine.
Xu Mo grabbed the nurse's wrist, stared into her eyes, and asked, "Sister nurse, what's your name?"
"Liu Yang!"
