Chapter 25 Murder in the Old Factory
"Although I said that just now, I don't rule out the possibility of a prank." Han Yun took a big sip of coffee and said, "Because we haven't found any reason why the murderer would mail a digital card to Wang Lu. I hope you don't lie. If you remember anything, tell Su Mo and contact me as soon as possible." Han Yun felt there was no need to continue asking.
"Don't be lucky when you encounter something like this." Yu Miaomiao also said, "At this moment, no matter how difficult the experience is, you should tell it all. Only in this way can we solve the case as soon as possible."
Han Yun took out the cash from his wallet and put it on the table, then stood up with Yu Miaomiao. When the two of them walked out of the cafe, Wang Lu followed them out, took out her phone and said, "We haven't taken the photo we promised yet." She switched her phone to camera mode and took a photo of Han Yun.
After crossing the park square and returning to Yu Miaomiao's car, Han Yun thought for a moment and said thoughtfully, "Take me to the old factory to have a look."
"Team Leader Li went there last night and took all the evidence back to the police station. I'm afraid we won't find anything if we go there now." Yu Miaomiao explained, "I think we should go find Wang Mengxian."
"It's no use looking for her. Although Wang Mengxian is Dong Xing's surgical assistant, I believe she doesn't know as much as Wu Nan." Han Yun leaned on the co-pilot seat and closed his eyes: "I need to go to the first crime scene to experience the murderer's state when he killed people."
Yu Miaomiao didn't say anything and started the car.
Han Yun closed his eyes and recalled what Wang Lu had just said. Assuming that she didn't know Dong Xing, Bai Jing, Wu Nan, Chu Rong, or Wang Mengxian, and the murderer gave her a death number card, then the previous speculation could be completely overturned, that is, the murderer was not seeking revenge for Chu Rong at all. This was just a coincidence.
Is it just a coincidence that Wu Nan knew Bai Jing, and Bai Jing was the second target of the murderer? But their professions are indeed different. What can a doctor and a real estate salesperson do to harm at the same time? What if the murderer was a patient who had undergone surgery on Dong Xing, and there was no one to seek help due to a medical accident, which intensified his revenge mentality...
Han Yun opened his eyes when he thought of this, turned to look at Yu Miaomiao and said thoughtfully: "I remember there is a certificate for honorary volunteers on the wall of the TV and bookshelf in Bai Jing's room, right?"
"Yes." Yu Miaomiao thought for a moment and said, "It was issued by the Jiangzhou City Volunteer Service Center."
"You can find your former colleagues and ask them to contact the Jiangxio City Volunteer Service Center to see what volunteer project Bai Jing participated in at that time." After Han Yun finished speaking, he closed his eyes again.
Yu Miaomiao, who was driving nearby, sent a WeChat message to his colleague, briefly explaining the situation. Han Yun closed his eyes this time and gradually fell asleep under the shaking of the car. The dream came again...
In the dream, it was still the forest. Qin Xiang held up his shotgun and aimed it at the couple picnicking not far away. The man was a bit fat, with a beer belly, and he occasionally reached out and patted it.
Qin Xiang's fingers were hooked on the gun hook. There was no expression on his face, and there was no ripple in his heart. Only a voice in his mind was thinking, "Pull it down, pull it down."
His fingers slowly pulled the gun hook, and at the moment the gun hook was pulled to the bottom, suddenly two hands grabbed Qin Xiang's ankles, followed by a huge force that pulled his entire body backwards.
"Bang~"
A gunshot was heard, but it did not hit the man it was aimed at , but hit the tree behind the man. However, the gunshot scared the man and the woman, and the two hugged each other.
Qin Xiang felt a little disappointed. At this moment, a pair of scarred hands grabbed the hunting rifle, and the other hand pulled Qin Xiang up and put him on the kang. It was a hunter. No matter how Qin Xiang struggled, the hunter would not let go. The hunter walked quickly all the way back to the wooden house, threw Qin Xiang on the ground, turned around, closed the wooden door and said, "Little guy, do you really want to kill someone with this gun?"
Qin Xiang, who was thrown to the ground, hurriedly got up and tried to escape from the cabin, but was pulled back by the hunter: "You stay here." After that, the hunter began to pack up the items in the cabin, saying: "Little guy, do you know how much trouble you have caused me? It is a felony to secretly hide a gun. If you are found, you will go to jail. Those two young men will definitely call the police."
After packing everything that could be packed into the bag, the hunter pulled Qin Xiang out of the cabin and set a fire inside. The weather was dry and hot, but fortunately there was no wind, so the cabin caught fire instantly, but did not affect the entire forest.
Qin Xiang looked at the raging fire in front of him and suddenly realized a problem: "Killing people is different from killing wild dogs."
"Woof, woof." Two barking sounds pulled Han Yun out of his dream. He sat up reflexively, breathing heavily and looking out the window. The car had stopped and there was a dilapidated factory building in front of him. The barking sound came from the forest.
"Team Leader Li should send out a sniffer dog to search the woods," Yu Miaomiao said.
Han Yun got out of the car and looked towards the factory. There were also several policemen there, protecting the crime scene. Yu Miaomiao walked over, took out her ID and showed it to them, then walked into the factory with Han Yun.
There were some wood piled up in the factory. Apart from the bloodstains on the ground, the tools should have been taken away. Yu Miaomiao walked to the middle of the factory and said, "I have seen the photos of the scene. This is where the chair is. And the electric saw was found here." Yu Miaomiao pointed to the corner, where there was a pile of torn paper and the like. "The fingerprints and footprints at the scene have been collected. There are no tire marks along the road to the factory, so the murderer should not have driven here."
"If the murderer knocked Bai Jing unconscious and then carried him here, with a box in his hands, the weight of two people and a suitcase, and the dirt road outside the factory, should have left deep footprints." Han Yun said as he looked around the factory.
"We didn't find any footprints, so Team Leader Li suspected that the murderer might not have taken the main road, but came around the forest, so the footprints were hard to find." Yu Miaomiao came to Han Yun: "That's probably the situation."
"Since Bai Jing is on a business trip, there must be clothes and daily necessities in his suitcase." Han Yun walked to the pool of blood on the ground and squatted down: "Have you found the items in his suitcase?"
"I guess Team Leader Li sent the search dogs to look for the items in the box and the footprints left by the murderer. Since they are still looking, they probably haven't found anything yet." When Yu Miaomiao said this, a few more dog barks were heard in the distance: "This factory is really in a remote location. Why would anyone choose to open a lumber factory here in the first place?"
"Look, the roof is peeling off and the walls are falling off. This factory must be very old. When you came here just now, didn't you notice that there are no big trees around? They must have been built to facilitate felling and processing of the trees around them. So this factory is probably much older than you and me." Han Yun reached out his hand, rubbed the blood stain on the ground, and put it to his nose to smell it.
