Xu Lin had seen this case before and knew how bad it was.
Nodding, he said to Zhang Tao: "Don't worry, Zhang Ju, I will do my best."
"Thank you." Zhang Tao said solemnly.
Then Shao Changqing came to Xu Lin and said: "There is another suspect in this case, who has been in our detention center for 10 years."
Xu Lin nodded, he knew this too.
The suspect Wei Mingfei has been detained for ten years and has been interrogated countless times, but he always insists that he is innocent.
He had appealed many times, but the only evidence left at the scene proved that he was the biggest suspect.
In that case, the official did not directly convict him, but instead detained him indefinitely, which actually showed the official attitude.
The suspect may really be innocent, but in this case, they have to make such a choice.
The so-called absence of suspicion, sometimes there is no way
Don't blame them for being cruel. As the only suspect and the case is so big, no one dares to let him go.
Moreover, the families of the victims have been paying attention to this case over the years, and have even applied for the death penalty for the suspect many times.
Custody and execution are completely different things. Officials can accept a miscarriage of justice, but are extremely cautious about the death penalty.
Now is not the past. As long as there is a trace of doubt, it is impossible to deprive the suspect of his life.
Next, Xu Lin set up a task force office in the Nanlin Municipal Bureau. He, his two apprentices and Wu Xiaofeng began to sort out the case.
Every photo of the crime scene is very old, and many of them are even blurry.
Xu Lin vaguely saw that this was a warehouse. The sight of corpses of various sizes was shocking.
The eyes of Han Xing and the other three gradually turned red, and Xiao Xue couldn't help but shed tears.
Most of them are just teenagers!
Who could do such a thing?
Xu Lin's veins popped out in his hands, he punched the table hard and growled: "Beast!"
"Master, where do we start investigating?" Han Xing asked with red eyes.
After hearing his words, Xu Lin was silent for a moment and said: "The file says that the site has been cleaned up and is now converted into a factory. We can only find those who were insiders back then to restore the situation at that time."
"Let's go and visit."
After Xu Lin finished speaking, he took the lead and walked outside.
After a while, they came to the home of a common man who had rescued the scene after the incident.
"Hello, uncle, we are from the criminal investigation team. We came to your house to learn about the 9.17 fire case." After knocking on the door, Xu Lin saw the middle-aged man in front of him and immediately nodded with a smile. .
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, then sighed and said, "Come in!"
Xu Lin saw a scar on his neck, which looked like a burn. There are large scars not only on the neck, but also on the back of the hands.
When the middle-aged man saw his eyes lingering on the scar, he said: "It was left 10 years ago. I...we are still useless and failed to save those children."
As he spoke, his eyes began to turn red. That hellish scene not only caused great harm to the victims and their families, but also left a lasting legacy for those involved in the rescue. shadow.
After pouring a glass of water for Xu Lin and the others, the middle-aged man sat on a chair, with a flash of memory in his eyes.
This memory was painful, and there was something ferocious on his face.
"It was a warehouse of a cotton spinning mill, and the school was next door. I remember at that time, after the fire, there were cries in the warehouse of the cotton spinning mill. Several of our workers passed by and rushed in to save people."
"But the fire inside was too big, and there were iron fences in the warehouse, so we couldn't get through at all. By the time we knocked down the iron fences, the fire had already surrounded them. I wanted to rush in, but I was beaten by someone within a few steps. A piece of wood knocked me unconscious, and if my co-workers hadn't carried me out with all their strength, I might have been buried in the flames."
"When the three of us came out, we all heard a sentence, Wei Mingfei, you must die a good death. It was a woman who shouted it, and we didn't know the rest."
Xu Lin nodded slightly after hearing this. It seemed that this was the evidence that Wei Mingfei was identified as the main suspect.
"It's just one sentence, and he was imprisoned for 10 years. Who said this sentence?"
Xu Lin secretly speculated in his heart that no matter what, Wei Mingfei and the others were going to meet him.
But before that, we have to go and see the migrant workers at the other two construction sites. Their understanding of the situation may be different from this uncle.
Then Xu Lin and the others came to the home of the second uncle who rushed into the sea of fire to save people.
What's sad is that because he was saving people, the uncle's right hand was severely burned and almost lost its function. Now he can only rely on his left hand to eat.
But the uncle was very optimistic. After Xu Lin and others arrived, he always had a gentle smile on his face.
Only when he talked about the children who died in the fire did the expression on his face turn ferocious for a moment.
The uncle provided Xu Lin and the others with another clue that was not a clue. He said that when he entered, he saw sparks on the beams, which seemed to be caused by wires touching.
Xu Lin frowned slightly. The cotton spinning factory building 10 years ago was brand new and was put into use less than half a month ago. Although the construction technology at that time was not as good as it is now, in any case, it was certainly not like the old houses of decades ago where the wires were exposed.
It's even more unlikely to hit the line.
And the uncle couldn't explain what happened at that time.
After the four Xu Lins came out of his home, they went straight to the home of the third worker.
But when they came to visit each other in the suburban countryside, they found that the coworker was doing some errands at home.
If the person is still at home, he will be taken to be cremated in the afternoon.
Xu Lin asked, and surprisingly he discovered that the worker named Du Zhongqi was actually dead. He suddenly fainted on the way home yesterday, and when he was found, he was already hard.
He couldn't help but frown. He had just launched an investigation, but he didn't expect such an accident.
Xu Lin's face looked a little ugly. The disappearance of any evidence or witness would make it extremely difficult to solve the case, or even directly lead to the inability to solve the case.
He shook his head and sighed, and was about to leave the Du family, but at this moment, something moved in his heart, and he opened his eyes of good and evil and took a look.
The next moment, a red name in the crowd appeared in his sight.
[Du Asan, crime value 177, murderer...]
Xu Lin's eyes immediately locked on the short, strong man with evasive eyes.
The other party's expression was always a little nervous. When he saw him looking over, he immediately turned his eyes away in panic.
