In the office of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Meihai City Public Security Bureau, Chen Xiaoxiao had returned from the sea view villa area, leaving only Peng Yuetao to keep watch.
This is what Lu Wan meant. Feng Zhigang did everything right. Lu Wan just had to let Feng Zhigang know that someone was watching him. After all, it was impossible for Feng Zhigang to really commit a crime under the eyes of the police.
Lu Wan recounted today's findings. Of course, she skipped all the speculations about Bai Mo.
Bai Mo, who had already guessed Feng Zhigang's murder on the phone, was still shocked. It was the first time he knew that criminal methods could be so clever. If Lu Wan hadn't noticed the problem, they might have continued to do nothing.
Bai Mo looked at the three paintings hanging next to the whiteboard. Is this a high-IQ crime?
Lu Wan noticed Bai Mo's behavior, and she didn't know if it was because of Teng Jie's reminder. She always felt that Bai Mo's eyes were strange, as if he had discovered a new world.
"Rongli County has asked for information about the first victim, and it is confirmed that he was a homeless man, but no one knows when he disappeared." Lu Wan said, "I have asked the Rongli County Public Security Bureau to notify the local We will visit all police stations to determine the number of homeless people in the entire county.”
"Alas!" Chen Xiaoxiao sighed, "The homeless group is so difficult for people to pay attention to. It is impossible to find out the specific time of disappearance."
Lu Wan smiled and said, "I didn't ask them to check the specific time of disappearance. I just wanted to know whether the third victim was from Rongli County. If so, it proves that the previous speculations are correct, and also It can expose Feng Zhigang’s true purpose!”
Fu Xingliang squinted and nodded, "Understood! If the third victim is from Ronli County, according to Feng Zhigang's wishful thinking, we will definitely think that the crime was committed in Ronli County, and then dig deep into the ground and completely fall into He is being misled.”
"More than that." Bai Mo continued, "He could have found a way to get rid of us and then appear under surveillance in Ronli County. This is the best way to mislead, but he led us to Ronli County with great fanfare. , I think he doesn’t want us to continue to focus our investigation on Meihai City.
besides! He has read so many suspense novels by his brother-in-law, and he is familiar with our case handling procedures, so he deliberately provoked me. He wanted us to monitor him and slow down the investigation of Wang Daqiang. "
Snapped!
Lu Wan snapped her fingers and pointed at Bai Mo with satisfaction, "That's right! I think so too, and this is one of his misleads. So the focus of our investigation is still on Wang Daqiang and all the possibilities that Feng Zhigang has in Meihai City. private domain that exists.”
The premise of the investigation of the crime location remains unchanged. There should not be too many nearby residents, otherwise the victim may be seen or heard, and he will try to avoid road surveillance.
Then we only need to reverse the idea of previously investigating Ronli County. Feng Zhigang brought people back from Ronli County, either by taking the expressway or the provincial road, starting from the two exits, and monitoring the nearest road as the radius. This may be The area where he committed the crime.
Before the discussion ended, news came from the Rongli County Public Security Bureau that a policeman from the police station in the area had seen the third victim. Lu Wan's suspicion was completely verified.
Everyone split up, but when Bai Mo was about to follow Chen Xiaoxiao out, he was stopped by Lu Wan.
Lu Wan waved her hand towards Chen Xiaoxiao, signaling her to leave.
Only Lu Wan, Bai Mo and Teng Jie were left in the office. Lu Wan said to Bai Mo: "You and Teng Jie are both targets of Feng Zhigang. For the safety of both of you, you must stay in the police station."
Bai Mo put his hand on his lower back unconvinced, "Sister, I have a gun, I'm not afraid of him!"
"Do you think guns are invincible? Believe it or not, I have several ways to kill you while holding a gun." Lu Wan rolled his eyes, "Also, you have always been a target shooter before. Have you ever experienced the feeling of pointing a gun at someone? Do you dare to shoot?"
Bai Mo was stopped by Lu Wan's question. He did not have any actual combat experience, but he felt aggrieved when he thought that he could not go out to investigate.
"But I'm a policeman!" Bai Mo said angrily, "How can any policeman be afraid of the murderer?"
Lu Wan pointed at Teng Jie, "Then just think that I gave you other tasks. Your current task is to protect your brother-in-law."
"Sister——" Bai Mo grimaced and prepared to play the emotional card to try again, "I..."
Lu Wan walked out of the office directly, saying only "execute the order" before leaving.
Seeing Bai Mo's depressed look, Teng Jie knew that Lu Wan was deliberately isolating Bai Mo. Before it was certain that Bai Mo was mentally normal, Lu Wan could not let Bai Mo contact criminals again.
Teng Jie smiled and patted Bai Mo, "Why, are you wronged by protecting me?"
"No." Bai Mo turned his head and looked to the side. He knew that Teng Jie was good at observation. If Teng Jie saw his expression, it would be obvious that he really didn't want to protect this brother-in-law who had no chance of anything happening.
······
Under the leadership of Lu Wan, the criminal police team launched a new investigation.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and poor Bai Mo could only go to Teng Jie every day, either reading at Teng Jie's house, or coming to the police station with Teng Jie to assist frontline colleagues in querying information.
These two days happened to be weekends, and Bai Mo's only gain was to get closer to Teng Jie's daughter, Teng Yujing.
Jingjing calls Teacher Bai with her sweet voice every day, which makes Bai Mo feel extremely comfortable. It is also a kind of comfort for him that he can't go to the front line to investigate.
Monday morning, in the sea view villa area.
Feng Zhigang was sitting in the study, staring at the hand-painted paintings on the wall and thinking deeply. He must have maintained this posture for a long time, because the cigar in his hand had been extinguished.
"That's not right!" Feng Zhigang muttered.
According to Feng Zhigang's calculations, members of the Municipal Criminal Police Team will join forces with the Ronli County Public Security Bureau to launch a large-scale screening of Ronli County, and the screening area will be around his processing plants.
But apart from the news that Feng Zhi had just received the day before yesterday that the police were visiting homeless people, he had never received any other news.
"Are you secretly investigating something else?" Feng Zhigang noticed that his cigar was extinguished. A cigar would extinguish itself if he didn't smoke it.
Lighting the cigar again, Feng Zhigang took two hard puffs. Feeling the rich aroma of the cigar, Feng Zhigang suddenly became more awake.
wrong!
Feng Zhi just got up and paced back and forth in the study. He took out his phone and called his driver.
"Mr. Feng." Driver Sun Meng immediately answered the phone.
"You came to my place yesterday and today. Have you noticed a modern SUV outside the gate of the community?" Feng Zhigang's voice was a little urgent.
Sun Meng is a retired soldier and used to be a scout. Feng Zhigang believed that Sun Meng would definitely notice this detail.
"I noticed it." Sun Meng said, "It has been parked outside the community. There are people inside. I think they are policemen. They will not do anything against you."
"Have they changed people in the past two days?" Feng Zhigang asked again.
"No!" Sun Meng replied, "Before, we worked in teams of two, at least in two shifts, but these two days we have been working alone."
Feng Zhigang's body froze. Unlike what he expected, the focus of the police investigation had shifted away from him.
Sun Meng noticed something strange about Feng Zhigang, and he asked in a low voice: "Mr. Feng, have you encountered something? Do you need my help?"
"You come to me first, the sooner the better." After saying this, Feng Zhigang hung up the phone.
Picking up the cigar again and taking two puffs, Feng Zhigang made another phone call.
The phone rang several times before it was answered.
"Hello, this is Shanjingyuan Property Service Center." A woman's sweet voice came from the other side of the phone.
"I just saw a few strangers passing by outside my home. Aren't outsiders not allowed in our community? Come over and make sure." Feng Zhigang looked angry.
He did not mention the location of his home when asking questions. If the property manager asked about the specific location, he would hang up the phone directly and the other party would just think it was a harassing call.
"I'm sorry, sir," the woman said. "Some police comrades came in the morning. They said they wanted to investigate the case and asked us to provide a list of owners who do not live in the community permanently. They should just go there for routine inspections."
The roar sounded in Feng Zhigang's mind. Why did the police go there? It was close to the mountains to the east of Meihai City. Wang Daqiang was brought back by him in the trunk. How could the police know where it was?
Even though he was in shock, Feng Zhigang's last clear subconscious mind allowed him to complete the call, "Sorry to trouble you."
The call was hung up, and Feng Zhigang stood motionless with his cell phone. At this moment, he happened to stop in front of his hand painting.
This was a gift he had prepared to give to Teng Jie. The cover of "Secret of the Night" was worthless in Teng Jie's eyes. Teng Jie said that the painting hid the corpse too well.
For some reason, he felt that the wheat field under the dark night did not cover the corpse. The subtle changes in the wheat ears caused by the gravity of the corpse were actually so conspicuous.
Feng Zhigang remembered what Teng Jie said. He said that Bai Mo could see the location of the body at a glance.
"Sure enough, it's still him!" Feng Zhigang muttered in a low voice.
Feng Zhigang slowly closed his eyes, raised his head and took a deep breath.
After taking a few deep breaths, Feng Zhigang opened his eyes, and the panic in his eyes miraculously disappeared.
"My house is at the end. There are not many residents in Shanjingyuan. They can't come in directly. I have to contact the absent heads one by one. I still have a lot of time!" Feng Zhigang lit the cigar that was extinguished again.
When the smoke from his breath surrounded him, a crazy smile appeared on his face.
"You still have time!"
