Detective: From the Police Academy

Chapter 388 Shocking reversal!

Yonghe City, in the interrogation room of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

Peng Tao said slowly: "Lei Xiaojun is my fellow villager. He came here from Yuncheng to work a year ago. At first, he applied for a sales position in our company, but the manager thought he was not good-looking and did not speak fluently, so the manager rejected him.

I saw that he was a fellow villager, so I chatted with him for a few minutes. He said that he had worked as a car repairman in his hometown, but found the work very hard and tiring, and the pay was low, so he wanted to find an easier job.

He had no other skills and had been looking for a job in Yonghe City for half a month, but couldn't find a good one and had difficulty making ends meet. So I advised him to go back to his old job. He had no choice but to find a job as a car repairman in Yonghe City.

Who would have thought that after he found a job, he would actually come to me. He said he had no relatives or friends here, and I was his fellow villager, so he wanted to treat me to a meal.

At that time, Zhang Jing and I were dating. When Lei Xiaojun came that day, Zhang Jing was also there, so the three of us went to eat grilled fish on the roadside. That’s how Lei Xiaojun met Zhang Jing. ”

After listening to this, Chu Yang asked, "What happened after that? Do you meet often?"

Peng Tao shook his head, then nodded: "We don't meet often, we just go out for a midnight snack occasionally, but Zhang Jing is not around, so Lei Xiaojun and Zhang Jing have only met once."

"you sure?"

"I..." Peng Tao was speechless for a moment. He had no idea what to say about this question.

"When did you and Zhang Jing break up?"

"Before the New Year, three months after I met Lei Xiaojun."

"Then how do you prove that Zhang Jing and Lei Xiaojun didn't meet after that?"

Hearing this, Peng Tao lowered his head and said, "Yes, I can't prove it."

"What kind of person is Lei Xiaojun?"

"He's a little shy, he doesn't talk much, and he doesn't have many friends. But he likes to buy lottery tickets and numbers. I heard him say that he came to Yonghe City to work because he owed a lot of money in his hometown of Yuncheng, so he came here to avoid debt and work at the same time."

"Does he know Jiang Mei?"

"know."

"How did we meet?"

"Uh... we met at dinner together."

Chu Yang hesitated for a moment, and Sun Zhihao asked hurriedly: "Have you told Lei Xiaojun that Jiang Mei and Zhang Jing are aunt and niece?"

Peng Tao's eyes froze, and he nodded slowly: "Yes, I said that."

Sun Zhihao had a cold face. There was no doubt that the pretty boy in front of him, having an affair with someone else's aunt and nephew, would most likely show off to others. This kind of thing was very exciting for a man.

"Are Lei Xiaojun and Jiang Mei familiar with each other?"

"It's quite familiar. Every time Lei Xiaojun invites me to dinner, he always asks me to invite Jiang Mei along."

"Does he know where Jiang Mei lives?"

At this point, even if Peng Tao was dumb, he understood that Lei Xiaojun was becoming more and more suspicious. He stood up excitedly and said, "Officer, do you think Lei Xiaojun killed Zhang Liang?"

The two police officers on duty behind him immediately held his shoulders and pressed his body down: "Sit down!"

Peng Tao had no choice but to sit back in his chair and continued, "Since you ask this, it is very likely that Lei Xiaojun killed Zhang Jing. I didn't kill her. I really didn't kill her!"

Sun Zhihao said: "It is not your turn to say who killed the person. We handle cases based on evidence. We will not wrongly accuse a good person, nor will we let a bad person go."

Chu Yang said, "If you want to clear your suspicion, then answer our questions honestly. Don't hide anything. Don't learn to be loyal."

For the sake of loyalty, I'll fuck Lei Xiaojun's mother... Peng Tao wished that the police would arrest this bastard immediately. He could betray even his own brother, let alone his fellow villager.

He hurriedly said: "Keep asking, I will definitely answer truthfully!"

"Okay then." Chu Yang nodded and asked, "Has Lei Xiaojun ever been to your place?"

"Yes!" Peng Tao immediately replied, "One night we were drinking and we were both drunk. The house I rented was close to where we had dinner, so he slept at my house that night."

"According to our investigation, you have stolen a lot of car supplies from your workplace, such as seat cushions, car recorders, and cleaning agents. Is that true or not?"

Peng Tao swallowed his saliva and asked, "How do you know?"

"Please answer the question."

He lowered his head: "Yes."

"Did you steal the 4 disinfectant from the 84S shop?"

"Have."

"Did you give it to Lei Xiaojun?"

Peng Tao raised his head and said, "It's not a gift, I sold it to him. He said the cleaning agent in the auto repair shop where he works is not easy to use, so I said that our 4S shop has a good disinfectant, which can be easily cleaned after mixing according to the proportion.

I have a lot of these things in stock, so I gave him two bottles without charging him, but he insisted on paying, so I had to take it.”

"When did this happen?"

"Just over a month ago."

"Think about it carefully and tell me a specific time."

"It was late November, I don't remember exactly."

As soon as this clue came out, Sun Zhihao, who was acting as an on-site judge, wanted to take out his cell phone to notify Fang Yonghui and Zhuo Yong who were still looking for the suspect at the bus station, but Chu Yang shook his head slightly.

He continued to ask: "When was the last time you contacted Lei Xiaojun?"

Hearing this, Peng Tao's pupils shrank and he became even more excited than before. He cursed: "Fuck you, this bastard killed him! It must be him, it must be him! Damn it, he almost killed me, this son of a bitch!"

Officer, go and catch him! This bastard comes to me several times a month. At the end of November, after he took the disinfectant from me, I haven't seen him since. I took the initiative to call him and asked him if the disinfectant was useful, but he just gave me a perfunctory answer. And since then, this bastard has never come to me again!"

Chu Yang and Sun Zhihao also became excited. After the suspect attacked Zhang Jing, he used disinfectant to clean the blood stains. The chemical composition of this disinfectant is the same as the disinfectant commonly used in 4S shops. Based on this important clue, Peng Tao is highly suspected.

In addition, the police also investigated the situation in the 4S store. This disinfectant was only used in the store and was not sold. Although many people had access to the disinfectant, the only one who had a social relationship with Zhang Jing was Peng Tao.

Now, Peng Tao has confessed to a person named Lei Xiaojun, and Lei Xiaojun's height and appearance are exactly the same as the suspect witnessed by the owner of the bus station store.

Then, Lei Xiaojun’s suspicion increases to ninety-nine percent!

To be on the safe side and avoid any mistakes, Chu Yang immediately called the police officer on duty and asked him to bring the mobile phone that Peng Tao had temporarily confiscated.

Chu Yang looked through the call records between Peng Tao and Lei Xiaojun.

As Peng Tao said, the last time the two of them spoke was on December 1st, and they haven't spoken since then.

Chu Yang finally asked: "Please provide Lei Xiaojun's address and his workplace."

Peng Tao immediately replied: "I don't know where he lives, I've never been there, but I've been to the auto repair shop where he works twice. It's on the south side of the North City Bus Station."

Hearing this, Chu Yang and Sun Zhihao could no longer hold back, and they stood up and walked out of the interrogation room.

Seeing this, Peng Tao immediately asked, "Officer, what should I do? When can you let me go?"

Chu Yang looked back at him and said, "According to the regulations, you will be free after noon within 24 hours. I advise you not to spread the situation in the interrogation room, and don't take the initiative to call Lei Xiaojun. If it affects our police investigation, you will not be detained for 24 hours."

Peng Tao swallowed his saliva. He originally wanted to call Lei Xiaojun to settle the score after he got out, but when the presiding police officer reminded him, he had to give up the idea.

As soon as the two of them walked out of the interrogation room, Sun Zhihao immediately said, "I'll notify Director Luo."

Chu Yang also said: "I will go to the city bureau leaders to apply for a warrant for Lei Xiaojun's arrest."

When the facts of the crime are clear, an arrest warrant is applied for, but the fact that Lei Xiaojun committed murder has not been confirmed. Unless the most direct evidence is found, such as his fingerprints on the murder weapon and the fact that he is on the run, an arrest warrant can be applied for directly.

--------------

North City Bus Station.

The silt in the well was completely pumped out, revealing the bluestone slabs at the bottom. Even the crabs, eels and hibernating frogs hiding in the silt were caught in baskets, but the head of the second body was not found.

After Zhang Jing's body was salvaged, it was sent to the funeral home immediately. Although her clothing, body shape, etc. were 99% similar to the victim Zhang Jing, DNA identification was still required.

However, the police officers on the scene have already determined that this person is Zhang Jing.

On the white cloth spread out at the scene, the body parts of the second corpse were scattered.

Two feet, a pair of hands, limbs, pelvis, abdomen and chest, the only thing missing is the head.

These body parts were already highly decomposed, and when Yi Chunlin arranged them, if he wasn't careful, he could tear off a layer of human skin.

"These are fucking body parts." Feng Jianqiu squatted down and looked at the remains carefully.

"Feng Zhi has a keen eye and is a good candidate for a forensic career." Yi Chunlin echoed from the side.

Feng Jianqiu didn't know whether what he said was a nice thing or just a mockery of himself.

Li Xu frowned: "Just looking at the cut surface of the wound, it is a dismembered body. What we are concerned about now is when this body was thrown into this well."

Yi Chunlin took off his pants while saying, "Depending on the degree of corruption, it won't be more than two months."

Feng Jianqiu said, "That was one month before Zhang Jing's body was dumped. I don't understand why there were two bodies in the well and the residents living at the foot of the mountain didn't notice that there was something wrong with the water?"

At this time, a policeman from the Municipal Bureau replied: "Feng Zhi, we went to the foot of the mountain to check. The residents at the foot of the mountain did not drink the water from this well at all. The water pipe went directly to a small food processing factory, which was a black workshop that specialized in making pickled vegetables for sale."

"Damn, that's even worse. What brand is it? My wife likes to eat pickled vegetables." Feng Jianqiu felt very disgusted.

Li Xu glared at him and said, "Let's talk about the case, don't talk about anything else. Old Feng, do you think the two bodies were found by the same murderer?"

Seeing that no one else was around and Yi Chunlin had gone to the tent to change clothes, Feng Jianqiu asked carefully, "Feng Zhi, am I telling the truth or a lie?"

"Don't play tricks on me, of course it's the truth!"

"Then I don't think it's the work of a murderer."

"How to say?"

Feng Jianqiu licked his lips and said, "First of all, the methods of killing the two victims are different. The first body was dismembered, while the second body, that is, Zhang Jing, was a complete body. This is very different.

Moreover, the head of the first body was not here. The murderer must have kept it secret and did not want us, the police, to find out the identity of this body.

Zhang Jing's body was different. The murderer found the well and dumped her body in it. Secondly, this headless corpse had no clothes or shoes, no features that could be used to trace her identity...

If the same murderer had committed the crime, he wouldn't have been so careless. It's not the same murderer's style."

Although Feng Jianqiu's words were vague, Li Xu understood them. Although he also thought so, he was unwilling to believe this speculation.

If the two murderers really dumped the body into the same well at the same time, it would not be a coincidence, but it would make the case more difficult to solve.

Damn, where can we find the murderer?

"Let's think about it from another angle..." Li Xu pointed at the bus station at the foot of the mountain: "What if... I say what if it was done by the same murderer.

He killed the first person, and in order to avoid being discovered by our police, he chose to dismember the body, threw the torso into this well, and hid the head somewhere else.

After that, he killed Zhang Jing. After all, he had killed two people. He was terrified and afraid of being caught, so he did not choose to dismember the body. Instead, he threw Zhang Jing's body into the well as well, and then chose to escape by car as soon as possible.

It's not that he wasn't careful enough, but escaping was more important. Do you think this is possible?"

Feng Jianqiu saw his serious expression and was obviously planning to investigate the two cases together. He didn't want to undermine his leader's confidence, so he had to answer, "It's possible. But Li Zhi, we don't have to worry too much. Zhang Jing's case should be investigated. As long as we find the murderer who killed Zhang Jing, whether it was the same person or not, wouldn't it be clear?"

Li Xu exhaled: "It's hard to be afraid. We have checked Zhang Jing's social relationships before and found no suspicious people."

"Isn't there Director Luo? His way of investigating cases is different from ours, and his speed of investigating cases is amazing. We will definitely be able to catch the murderer."

"Him?" Li Xu sighed. "Who in the municipal and county bureaus of Haidong Province would welcome him? He is a good investigator, but I'm afraid he will reveal other things. Isn't the lesson of Fengshui County profound enough?
The director and criminal captain of Fengshui County Bureau have both resigned. Not to mention, I also know the former director of Linjiang City, Wan Mingxia, who also resigned after a case was handled by Luo Rui.

Wherever this King of Hell Luo goes, there will be no peace. "

Feng Jianqiu sighed as well, but he was just pretending to accompany his leader: "Li Zhi, we're done here. I'll ask Forensic Doctor Meng and the others to collect the bodies. Shall we go down the mountain first?"

Li Xu nodded and was about to speak when the phone in his pocket rang.

He took out his cell phone, glanced at the screen, and found that it was the director calling.

After answering the phone, the first words from the other end frightened him: "What? You applied for a warrant?"

Li Xu opened his eyes wide and listened to the call in a daze.

Feng Jianqiu stood aside, pricked up his ears, and waited quietly.

After Li Xu hung up the phone, he stared at Feng Jianqiu with an incredulous look in his eyes: "We have found a suspect in Zhang Jing's case!"

"what?"

Feng Jianqiu was stunned, seemingly unable to believe it: "We just salvaged the body and the suspect was found? So fast? Who found it out?"

Li Xu didn't care about so much, he hurried down the mountain: "Who else could it be, the people Luo Rui brought, could they be our people? Our director scolded me, let's go, hurry up, Director Luo and his men are at the foot of the mountain, their case is almost solved, and we are still wandering around in the mountains."

------------

The time came to six o'clock in the afternoon.

After Lin Chen received a call from Sun Zhihao, the group immediately went to the auto repair shop where Lei Xiaojun worked.

Two police cars parked outside the shop, immediately scaring the boss out from under the car.

The boss was a short man wearing a car repair suit with oil stains on his chest and dirty pants.

Qiao Xue stepped forward, showed her police ID, and asked, "Boss, do you have a car repair worker named Lei Xiaojun here?"

"What do you want him for?" The boss was very alert and did not answer the question immediately.

Luo Rui glared at him: "Just answer whatever I ask you. It has nothing to do with you."

Hearing this, the boss relaxed a little and replied, "Yes, there is such a person. What's the matter?"

"Where is he now?"

"I quit my job."

"When did this happen?"

"This month."

"The specific time?"

The boss frowned and wanted to scratch the back of his head, but he had to give up because of the oil-stained cotton gloves.

A young man standing next to him, who seemed to be his apprentice, said, "On the 5th, Lei Xiaojun left on the morning of the 5th."

Luo Rui looked at him: "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure he owed me money. He asked my uncle for his salary and then gave me the money back."

"Did he say where he was going?"

"He said his mother was seriously ill and needed money, so he had to go home." The person who answered was the owner of the auto repair shop. He continued, "I've seen this kind of thing many times. I thought he was not satisfied with his salary, so I said I would give him an extra 200 yuan a month and asked him to continue working, but he didn't agree."

"Did he say where his home was?"

"From another province, probably Yuncheng."

Cai Xiaojing asked: "Do you have a copy of his ID card?"

"Yes, I'll get it for you." The boss took off his gloves and walked towards the lounge next door.

Cai Xiaojing and Qiao Xue hurried to follow.

At this time, Luo Rui looked at the boss's apprentice and asked, "Little brother, where does Lei Xiaojun usually live?"

The man pointed to the iron staircase on the right side of the auto repair shop and said, "He lives in the shop, right there, on the second floor. He and I live in the same room."

"Take us to see it."

"Okay." The young man agreed readily.

Luo Rui followed him and asked, "You live with him, so you should know his schedule, right?"

"What do you want to ask?"

"Was he in the dormitory after 8 o'clock on the evening of December 3rd?"

The young man thought for a while and shook his head: "No."

"How do you know so well?"

"We, who work in auto repair, have agreed with customers on what time to pick up the car. I remember that we had to deliver a car to a customer on the 4th. My uncle and I worked overtime until 10 pm the night before. Lei Xiaojun said he had something to do that afternoon and didn't come at all."

"So when did he come back?"

"It seemed to be around midnight, probably around twelve o'clock. I was just about to go to bed at that time..." At this point, the young man was stunned for a moment, and then said: "No, he came back at nine o'clock that night."

Luo Rui narrowed his eyes slightly: "Have you seen him?"

"No, but I heard some noise on the stairs. He and I are the only ones living on the second floor, so it must be him who went upstairs."

The young man climbed up the iron stairs: "If you don't believe me, just listen."

He stepped hard on the iron stairs. Because the structure was old and rusty, and the screws were loose, the stairs made a loud creaking sound.

Afterwards, the young man walked to the door of the second floor. The door was not locked, so he pushed it open and went in. Luo Rui and his group followed him in.

The space in the room is very small, and there is a bunk bed in it, also made of iron.

In addition, there is a square table and several chairs.

The young man pointed to the lower bunk and said, "This is the bed that Lei Xiaojun sleeps on."

There were still bedding and pillows on the bed; these things had not been taken away or thrown away.

Luo Rui asked: "Have you touched these things?"

The young man shook his head: "I won't touch his things."

"Very good." Luo Rui thanked him, then took the latex gloves handed to him by Lin Chen, put them on, and carefully turned over the bed.

Lin Chen was also observing carefully in the room, asking the young man which things belonged to Lei Xiaojun and which were his.

Seeing that there was nothing left on the bed, Luo Rui squatted down and looked under the bed.

Then he dragged out a black plastic bag from near the end of the bed.

Luo Rui opened the bag and saw a used bottle of 84 disinfectant inside, with only half of the solution left.

Luo Rui looked at the brand of disinfectant carefully, and it was exactly the same as the one he found at Peng Tao's home!
The Baita community where Zhang Jing was killed, the bus station where her body was dumped, and where Lei Xiaojun worked and lived, these three places formed a triangular area, and are no more than three kilometers away from each other.

In the absence of complete evidence, it is not difficult to guess that Lei Xiaojun went to Baita Community on the afternoon of December 3. It is not known whether he went to find Zhang Jing or Jiang Mei, but what is certain is that Lei Xiaojun did not go there to kill anyone.

It is possible that he had an argument with Zhang Jing and killed her, and then he returned to the auto repair shop to take away disinfectant and clean up the bloodstains in the kitchen.

It was not clear whether Zhang Jing was dead or not, but Lei Xiaojun definitely wanted to kill her. He took Zhang Jing away in a suitcase, avoiding surveillance on the road, and dumped her body in a well on the back mountain of the bus station. After committing the crime, he lied to the owner of the auto repair shop and escaped from Yonghe City under the pretext of going home to visit his elderly mother!

While Luo Rui was thinking, there was a sound of footsteps on the stairs outside the door, and the footsteps were very quick, as if someone was running.

He stood up and met Cai Xiaojing's anxious gaze: "What's wrong?"

"We checked Lei Xiaojun's identity, and he is indeed from Yuncheng..."

"Is there anything wrong?"

Cai Xiaojing licked her lips, holding the phone tightly in her hand, and replied: "After I got his identity, I immediately called the Yuncheng police, and they immediately found out that Lei Xiaojun had been imprisoned three years ago!"

"What?" Luo Rui opened his eyes wide.

"Lei Xiaojun was imprisoned for theft three years ago and has not been released yet!"

Lin Chen swallowed his saliva and murmured, "How did a person serving a sentence in prison commit a crime?"
