Chapter 28 Something's Not Right
"It seems we can be pretty sure about it!" Xu Bin and Cao Dahua exchanged a glance and said.
"Hmm!" Cao Dahua nodded, offering no objection.
The height, age, lack of children, the three letters on the inner ring of the ring, the clothes worn, and the cause of death all match the bloodstains found at the scene.
It can be determined that the body is Liu Jianshe's wife, Li Ailian.
In addition, Liu Jianshe did not report his wife's disappearance for a month and a half; it was Li Ailian's parents who reported her missing. Furthermore, neighbors and villagers said that Liu Jianshe frequently abused his wife because she had not given birth to children.
Everything points to one thing.
Liu Jianshe murdered his wife and buried her body!
"This case isn't too complicated!" Cao Dahua nodded, then subconsciously turned to look at Wu Song. Seeing Wu Song frowning slightly, he asked, "What's wrong? Are you starting to feel nauseous? I thought you really weren't reacting to this kind of scene."
"No!" Wu Song shook his head. "Master, I can't sense any killing intent from Liu Jianshe! He doesn't seem to have killed anyone."
"Is that so!" Cao Dahua put his hand on Wu Song's shoulder. "Your ability to sense killing intent isn't exactly scientific. Maybe you misread it, or maybe your senses aren't working properly?"
"I still feel this case isn't that simple!"
Wu Song disagreed with his master's words.
My ability to sense killing intent isn't some kind of scientific method.
It's theology!
Think about how you came into this world, and you'll know how powerful this theology is; it shouldn't be wrong.
"Then tell me, if it wasn't Liu Jianshe who killed her, who was? Who killed his wife in his house and then put the body in his family's ancestral grave?"
"..." Wu Song fell silent.
He couldn't offer an explanation.
Almost all the evidence in this case points to Liu Jianshe murdering his wife.
……
Chengbei Branch.
trial room.
Xu Bin, Cao Dahua, and the members of the pre-trial team sat in their seats.
Wu Song and Liu Shutong stood in the corner.
Liu Jianshe was locked in an interrogation chair.
After struggling a couple of times, Liu Jianshe adopted a brazen, thuggish demeanor. "What exactly do you want? My wife is missing, and instead of looking for her, you're controlling me like this? Is this how you handle cases?"
"You've found your wife!" Xu Bin said.
"Found it?" Liu Jianshe's eyes lit up, then a ferocious look appeared on his face. "This barren hen dared to run away! When she gets back, I'll beat that spendthrift woman to a pulp!"
"Bang!" Cao Dahua slammed his hand on the table. "So, you just killed her?"
"Huh? What do you mean?" Liu Jianshe's expression froze, and he asked curiously, "You mean, she's dead?"
"Take a look for yourself!" Xu Bin handed over the photos he had taken at the scene.
"Huh? He's really dead?"
"How can you be so sure the person in the photo is her?"
"She was wearing this same outfit a few days before she disappeared, and this silver ring on her hand is the same style as the one she wore before. Oh, and government, there are three letters inside her ring, the initials of her name. You can check, if they are there, then it's her."
"Government, who killed her?"
Anger flashed across Liu Jianshe's face. "The wife I spent a fortune to marry, and she's just been killed like that! I'll fucking kill her!"
"Bang!" Cao Dahua slammed his fist on the table again. "Don't you know who killed her?"
"What do you mean?"
Liu Jianshe noticed the atmosphere in the interrogation room was becoming increasingly tense, and tentatively asked, "You mean, I killed her?"
"No, I didn't kill anyone, I didn't kill anyone!" Liu Jianshe struggled desperately. "Please, police officers, government, I really didn't kill anyone. I don't even know how my wife died."
"Do you know where we found her body?"
"where?"
"In your ancestral graves," Xu Bin began, unleashing a string of evidence. "And what about the bloodstains in your house? There's a lot of blood near the corner of the coffee table, and Li Ailian's body proves she died from a small blunt force injury to the back of her head, something resembling the corner of a table! How else do you want to explain this?"
"This, this, this, this is impossible!" Liu Jianshe shook his head repeatedly, looking like he was about to cry. "I didn't do it, I didn't kill anyone!"
"Don't you think your explanation is too weak? I've never seen a murderer admit to killing someone!" Cao Dahua sneered, then sniffed the air. "What's that smell?"
Upon closer inspection, a puddle of water was visible under Liu Jianshe's seat, and Liu Jianshe's legs began to tremble.
"What's wrong? Only now are you scared?"
"I've always known that murderers pay with their lives, so I really didn't kill my wife. Government, police officers, you must investigate this thoroughly and give me justice!"
……
Six hours later, Liu Jianshe still refused to admit it.
They had someone else continue the interrogation, and everyone who had been in the interrogation room returned to the office.
"This guy's really stubborn!" Xu Bin rubbed his head with the freshly prepared ginger water. "The evidence is so conclusive, what's the point of denying it?"
"This case isn't really that complicated, but Liu Jianshe is definitely a bit of a coward. Among the murderers I've seen, he might not be the most cowardly, but he's definitely in the top few!" Cao Dahua chuckled.
The others also seemed relaxed. "This case isn't difficult at all. Compared to the Scarecrow case, it's nothing."
Liu Shutong took a sip of water, glanced in Wu Song's direction, and seeing Wu Song's solemn expression, said, "Don't worry, Brother Song, Liu Jianshe will have to admit it sooner or later."
"I'm not worried that he won't admit it. I still think that he might not have killed Li Ailian. At the very least, he didn't kill her directly. Perhaps he had other accomplices."
Recalling Liu Jianshe's performance in the interrogation room, Wu Song was even more inclined to believe the former.
Based on his decades of experience in the underworld, Liu Jianshe gave him the impression of being more like a thug.
A person capable of killing should not act like that.
But if he killed him, then none of this makes sense.
Therefore, Wu Song still believed that the possibility of hiring a hitman to kill was more likely.
Or it could be a case of exchanging murders, but someone else killed his wife, and he didn't have a target to kill.
"I request that a comprehensive investigation be conducted into those around Liu Jianshe." Wu Song looked at his master, Cao Dahua, feeling a little anxious.
When will this process of becoming a permanent employee finally end?
If I don't get a permanent position, I'll never have the opportunity to handle cases independently.
If he had already been officially appointed, he could have found an auxiliary police officer to conduct the investigation. He wouldn't need to be with his master for everything like he is now.
"Hey, you young man are really stubborn. The evidence is so clear, and you still think there's a problem? What problem could there be?" Cao Dahua complained to Wu Song, but still stood up. "But since you're my apprentice, let's do as you say and investigate Liu Jianshe's social connections tomorrow."
