Naturally, the police cannot easily believe Zhou Ping's confession.
In order to verify whether Zhou Ping was lying, the police launched an in-depth investigation into Zhou Ping.
During the investigation, the police discovered that Zhou Ping did have a bad habit of gambling.
It was precisely because of this incident that his wife divorced him.
Even the medical staff at the hospital knew something about it, but no one said it explicitly.
According to Zhou Ping's explanation, the police found the person Zhou Ping owed money to.
According to the other party's account, Zhou Ping was a frequent customer there and indeed owed them 300,000 yuan in March.
Of course, the real amount is definitely not that much.
However, this detail is not important.
The moneylenders gave Zhou Ping a month to raise funds. They also knew that Zhou Ping would definitely not be able to raise so much funds in a short period of time, so they focused on Zhou Ping's house.
At the end of March, when they were about to take over the house, Zhou Ping suddenly appeared and not only paid off all the debts, but also continued gambling at their place.
I don't know if it was due to good luck or other reasons, but Zhou Ping won a lot this time gambling.
In the next few days, Zhou Ping came several times one after another, winning and losing.
But since the 404 case occurred, Zhou Ping never came again.
After the police determined that Zhou Ping was indeed involved in gambling and indeed owed gambling debts, they began to investigate Zhou Ping's bank statements.
The police thought they would gain a lot from the bank.
But the result was somewhat beyond their expectations.
Zhou Ping did receive 500,000, divided into two times, one was 200,000 and the other was 300,000. The bank also has records of Zhou Ping's withdrawals.
But the person who transferred money to Zhou Ping was not Xu Mo's account, but Xu Lei's grandma's account.
The police further investigated Xu Lei's grandmother and found that the money was transferred from the account of a gang member in Xiacheng District.
Following this clue, the police pursued the case all the way.
After going round and round, the five hundred thousand went through multiple accounts, including an account opened by Chen Xuefeng in the name of a student, Luo Bin's personal account, etc.
It was eventually discovered that the money was originally deposited in cash by Song Jiajia.
But Song Jiajia is just an ordinary college student with an average family background. How could she have so much cash?
Fang Mo thought of Xu Mo immediately.
Among all Song Jiajia's connections, only Xu Mo could spend so much money at once.
But the police had no evidence to prove that Xu Mo gave the money to Song Jiajia. After all, it was a cash transaction.
Of course, the police also checked Xu Mo's account, and there was indeed a lot of money in his card. However, in the past six months, Xu Mo had not withdrawn money, but there were consumption records.
But after investigation, Xu Mo's consumption in the past six months and more was not that much, and there were traces of everything he bought.
Obviously, the search for the clue of the origin of the five hundred thousand dollars has failed at this point.
And because the 500,000 yuan had been through the accounts of Chen Xuefeng, Luo Bin and others, the police had to suspect that Song Jiajia was probably acquainted with them and was very familiar with them.
As for whether Chen Xuefeng, Luo Bin, Xu Lei and others knew that there was this extra money in their accounts, it is no longer possible to know.
However, judging from the investigation of other people who are still alive, they should not know.
After all, the money remains in each account for only a short period of time.
As a result, the police suspected whether it was done by someone inside the bank.
However, after some investigation, this possibility was ruled out.
As a result, the investigation of 500,000 yuan completely failed, and the investigation of the case once again reached a deadlock.
In fact, if you want to find out whether the 500,000 yuan belongs to Xu Mo, you only need to interrogate Xu Mo.
But the problem is that Xu Mo has lost his memory.
Amnesia has now become Xu Mo's trump card.
He knew nothing about what happened before Case 404 happened. Even if there was an interrogation, the police would not be able to get the results.
…
…
In the captain's office.
Fang Mo frowned after reading the investigation reports these days.
"Captain, how should we investigate next?" An Xin asked.
Fang Mo thought for a moment and asked, "Is there any news about Xu Tao and Xie Yao's search?"
"Not yet. We have even issued rewards and received a lot of reporting calls, but they are not them. They seem to have disappeared from the world. I suspect..."
Speaking of this, An Xin paused.
Fang Mo raised his head and glanced at An Xin, knowing what he wanted to say.
"You think they've been killed?"
An Xin nodded and said: "This is the only possibility at the moment. After all, two living people must eat, drink and have sex, and these all cost money. No matter how well they hide it, their flaws will be exposed. But so far we haven't found any clues, there is only one possibility..."
Hearing this, Fang Mo nodded slightly.
Then he asked: "Have all the victims of the recent murders been identified?"
"Most of them have been identified, and they are not them. We have also verified the remaining deceased who cannot be identified. Either their age does not match, or their body shape does not match."
Fang Mo frowned and murmured, "Then where will they go?"
"Captain, do you think they will leave Silver City through special channels?"
"It's possible, but why would they leave?"
An Xin thought for a while and said, "Is there a possibility that the death of Guo Zihao and others has something to do with them."
Fang Mo was startled, looked at An Xin and said, "Tell me what you think."
"Captain, look, we are basically sure that the murderer of Guo Zihao is Song Jiajia, but there are still a few doubts that have not been solved."
"First, how did a girl, Song Jiajia, kill the strong Guo Zihao, and she also killed him through torture?"
"Second, how did Song Jiajia get Yu Jin and others into a rundown building and sew them together? Can a girl really do this?"
"Third, judging from the current investigation results, Song Jiajia's purpose of killing Guo Zihao and others was to avenge Ye Qingwu, and Xu Tao is Ye Qingwu's ex-boyfriend, and Xu Tao joined Guo Zihao's team after Ye Qingwu dropped out of school. Yes, according to our investigation, among Guo Zihao’s entire team, Xu Tao is the only one who has not engaged in illegal activities. Is it possible that Xu Tao joined Guo Zihao’s team to avenge Ye Qingwu?”
After Fang Mo listened, he took a deep look at An Xin.
He found that this young man's mind was really flexible and he had his own ideas, unlike other graduates who only knew how to do things step by step.
However, now is not the time to think about this.
Fang Mo felt that An Xin's analysis and speculation were very reasonable, and it was also possible.
But there's a problem.
"Xu Tao participated in the murder case to avenge his ex-girlfriend Ye Qingwu, but what about Xie Yao? Why did he disappear?"
"this……"
