"The colleagues who handled the case at the time specially summarized two characteristics for this victim."
"First, this person has a very magical ability of self-hypnosis. It seems that she doesn't care at all about the negative impact of all kinds of rumors on her life. In fact, she is very good at self-hypnosis. When something happens, she You can just pretend that nothing happened, let the past pass without summing up or reflecting on it, and then continue to have fun.”
"Furthermore, her cognitive ability, understanding ability, judgment ability, and the way she sees problems are different from normal people. She regards those bad things that are invisible and shameless as 'a kind of brave life and the courage to try. Performance; Regarding her sexual behavior, she actually thinks that her "rich sexual experience is an advantage and will give her an advantage in marriage and love."
"After that, the woman called the police many times on the pretext of being defrauded. Everyone in the police station knew what the matter was, and they kicked her back to the local police station for processing..."
Wang Xing told this "strange person" and "strange thing" on the way back, but Lao Liu and Ouyang were still distracted.
At the scene of the "Zhou Xiaolu case" at Bonan University, the three of them encountered what the students called a "wretched old man." After questioning, it was revealed that this person was actually Zhou Xiaolu’s grandfather, Mr. Feng.
After Zhou Xiaolu was killed, the old man came to Shashi. At first, he went to the Shashi Public Security Bureau every day to inquire about the investigation results of the case. After asking for a long time to no avail, he wandered around Bonan University every day, and then lived directly in a pavilion in the back mountain. , which was the scene of the crime that year.
There seemed to be some problems with Mr. Feng's mental state, which was neither normal nor abnormal. This ill-fated and stubborn old man seems to be still living a strong life with his head held high, but also seems to be dizzy by fate.
Call him normal. He regards all the female students in school as "Xiaolu". When he meets a female student in school, he will sometimes follow them, and then he will follow him with a smile and shout to the female student: "Xiaolu, I am grandpa..."
This must have frightened many female students, and it has already alerted the school. The school once sent him to a homeless shelter, but he was sent there one day before and he ran out the next day. This was repeated several times, and after communication, the school slowly figured out his situation. Since he was not "aggressive" or "harmful", they turned a blind eye to his behavior in the back mountain. Eye.
Call him abnormal. He can express his identity very clearly, and he has never done anything "extraordinary". Even when Lao Liu said, "At your age, you should stay at home." But there was a glint in his cloudy eyes, and he said, "Don't worry, I won't die until the murderer is caught."
It was this sentence that made the three of them fall silent, even a little "ashamed".
No police officer wants to solve a murder case. When all police officers face unsolved cases, what they fear most is facing the families of the victims. They would rather face the most heinous criminals or suspects.
Mr. Feng stayed at the scene of the crime and waited for 15 years. What he wanted was a result.
The hearts of the three of them were as heavy as weights weighed down by lead.
Wang Xing deliberately diverted the attention of Lao Liu and Ouyang, and then talked about the above-mentioned "weird people" and "weird cases", but the effect did not seem to be obvious.
"According to the files on Zhou Xiaolu's case, the specific location where Zhou Xiaolu's body was found was under the mushroom stone by the lake behind Bonan University, on the side not facing the lake."
"Just now, the old man said that in the early years, Wang Kang would put down a bouquet of flowers under the mushroom stone in Houhu every year on Xiaolu's death anniversary to commemorate Xiaolu..."
Ouyang suddenly stopped and said a few words.
The "mushroom stone" in the back hill of Bonan University is the product of crustal movement in ancient times. It is also the result of natural evolution. It is also a wonder given to mankind by nature.
The boulders were uplifted by the movement of the earth's crust, and then formed into their current shape under the action of flowing water, weathering and other natural forces.
There are fossils formed after the solidification of gravel at the bottom, and there are traces of water erosion. From this, we can judge that before the crustal movement came, the position of the boulder should be in the middle of the river. The main part of it has traces of weathering, which is enough to prove that it has existed for more than tens of thousands of years.
The overall height is 4.3 meters, the diameter of the upper part is 4.8 meters, and the diameter of the bottom is 0.7 meters. From a distance, it looks like a huge mushroom, hence the name "Mushroom Stone".
"Mushroom Stone" has never changed due to its origin and special shape.
In the previous communication with Mr. Feng, the old man did not mean to blame the police. Instead, after Zhou Xiaolu was killed, some students who knew Zhou Xiaolu at school would occasionally place a few bouquets of flowers by the Houshan Lake to commemorate Zhou Xiaolu’s behavior. Grateful.
The old man mentioned casually that among these people there was a fair and handsome young man who would come over on Xiaolu's death anniversary for several years in a row and place flowers in a different position from others.
Others would just find a random place to put their flowers down by the lake, but he always put them under the "mushroom stone" on the side of the stone facing away from the lake.
As time went by, Zhou Xiaolu's classmates and friends graduated one after another and left the school one after another. This form of memorial or commemoration did not last long.
Afterwards, the old man muttered a few words, saying that the young man seemed very quiet, but never spoke, and even when he asked him questions, he got no response.
She also murmured that if Xiaolu were to find a boyfriend, she would probably find someone like this "boring gourd". Xiaolu always thought she talked too much. If she found a "significant other" who talked less, her personalities would "complement each other"...
The old man suspected that that person was Zhou Xiaolu's "boyfriend" during his lifetime.
But the three of them knew it very well. They all knew that Zhou Xiaolu had never found a serious "boyfriend" back then. Even if she had "had", it was Shi Jun who was not suitable for the role of "boyfriend" in terms of gender. Or the "Sea King" Shang Biao who talks so much that he can fool an ignorant girl into lameness.
Soon, they thought of Wang Kang, and then took out his photo. They originally thought that so many years had passed, and given the old man's increasingly trance-like mental state, they might not still remember the "handsome guy" he mentioned. looks.
As a result, the old man's eyes lit up when he saw the photo: "That's him. This young man's eyes are very deep, like a pool of spring water. I won't admit it. He should be married now..."
There are many cases where criminal suspects return to the crime scene after the crime is committed. Most of these criminals do this to satisfy their own sense of achievement.
Wang Kang was reclassified as a "criminal suspect" by the three people, returned to the scene of the crime, and appeared as a "memorial" on the death anniversary of the victim for several consecutive years. This should not be just to satisfy his sense of accomplishment. Zhou Xiaolu seems to have a different special meaning to Wang Kang.
The three of them did not dare to tell the old man that this man had been classified as a criminal suspect again.
"The location where Wang Kang placed the flowers is exactly where Zhou Xiaolu's body was buried? The other students only knew the general location of Zhou Xiaolu's murder, but they definitely didn't know the exact location, so when commemorating Zhou Xiaolu, they would place the flowers casually. by the lakeside."
"Is Wang Kang's move a coincidence or deliberate?"
Ouyang asked the final question.
Until the case is solved, clues from the crime scene will not be released to the public. In other words, the only people who knew the location of Zhou Xiaolu's body were the reporter, the police and the real culprit.
If Wang Kang did it "on purpose," then he is the real murderer.
Lao Liu and Wang Xing quickly understood what Ouyang meant.
"These situations will be reported clearly to Team Yang when the time comes... Let's report to Team Li first." Lao Liu said.
After receiving the details of the case, Li Zhudao gave them an investigation direction that exceeded their expectations the next day:
"In this case, Zhou Xiaolu's two cousins had no time to commit the crime, so they were ruled out as suspects by the police at that time."
"Wang Kang relied on his natural social barrier to confuse the audience and avoid the situation in the transcripts of that year.
The police were suspicious and managed to get away with it. In other words, Wang Kang may indeed be the real murderer. "
"Whether it is Zhou Xiaolu's two cousins, or Shang Biao, Shi Jun and Li Haidong, that is, Wang Kang, they are all direct suspects of the crime."
"But in this case, there is another indirect suspect, Liu Yuanyuan, Shi Biao's girlfriend at the time."
"Because there is no direct connection between Liu Yuanyuan and Zhou Xiaolu, and Shang Biao denied that Liu Yuanyuan knew Zhou Xiaolu's existence, the Shashi police did not regard her as a suspect. After all, on the surface, her suspicion of committing the crime is indeed not high."
"At that time, the Shashi police contacted Liu Yuanyuan by phone and only confirmed Shang Biao's itinerary with her. They did not carefully examine her own itinerary before and after the incident, nor did they conduct any investigation on her. This may have allowed Liu Yuanyuan to slip through the net. .”
"Shang Biao claimed that Liu Yuanyuan did not know the existence of Gou Shanshan, Yuan Yuting and Zhou Xiaolu. It is possible that he did not know that Liu Yuanyuan knew the existence of these people."
"Last year, there was a case of a second-married spouse murdering his mistress in Yancheng. Do you still remember it?"
"The spouse of the second-married woman, that is, the criminal, went behind her husband's back and asked a gangster to come to threaten her mistress. Originally, she just wanted the gangster to scare her and make her leave her husband. However, the gangster took advantage of the situation and had evil intentions, and finally committed violence. In the process, the mistress was accidentally killed."
"In this case, the husband of the mastermind also thought that he had done a good job of keeping secret. It was not until the police came to arrest his spouse that he realized that his spouse had known about the mistress's existence for a long time."
"The criminal in this case claimed that she wanted to tell her husband by asking the mistress to leave on her own. Those outside were just casual romances and show-offs, while those at home are the ones that last forever and are true to each other."
