Eyes that are the same as those of evil

Chapter 155 The Hand of God 8
Huang Yilin does indeed have fertility issues!

A man who is infertile and has been with the person he loves for eleven years without anyone ever suspecting that he has a problem, in big data analysis, can almost be equated with someone who is "sensitive and repressed to the point of being psychologically abnormal".

It's entirely possible for such a person to suddenly erupt into murder.

Tan Jia offered her conjecture: "People with this defect are likely to be sensitive, insecure, and have a strong sense of self-esteem. Huang Yilin was afraid that others would know he was infertile. After so many years of marriage, who knows how much of his meticulous love for the deceased was genuine and how much was an act? Perhaps both families were pressuring him to have children, and he was more anxious than the deceased, so he went so far as to arrange for the deceased to have a relationship with a man and become pregnant in order to save face for him."

"But he couldn't stand that his wife had actually slept with someone else and had a child, so he wanted to make her disappear. Because he was the one who orchestrated it, he didn't need to follow her to know who the deceased's lover was. After discovering that the deceased might have also realized that the child wasn't his, and after finding out through some means that the deceased had secretly come to meet Zhou Yan, the feeling of betrayal deepened. So he rushed to the neighborhood, killed the deceased, and set fire to try to frame Zhou Yan."

Zheng Yan: "Possibly. Now we just need to know Huang Yilin's whereabouts last night, to see if he appeared near Zhou Yan's house, and then we can bring him in for interrogation."

To track someone's whereabouts, you have to check surveillance footage.

Surveillance footage confirms that Huang Yilin did indeed take the elevator downstairs at 10 p.m. last night. Although the same figure was not found in the surveillance footage at the main entrance of the community, he did not take the elevator back upstairs to go home until dawn.

Not long after that, Zheng Yan and his group came to their door.

In other words, Huang Yilin had ample time to commit the crime.

But it still needs to be proven that he went to Zhou Yan's house to kill someone during this period, rather than going out to do something else.

Another round of surveillance footage checks was conducted, but this time they didn't just check the surveillance equipment along the road. Instead, they assigned people to specifically search for all videos related to the fire in Zhouyan Community.

The person who recorded the video was a firsthand witness to the fire. He was still panting as he ran downstairs when he couldn't wait to start recording his life. The filming was without any composition or technical skill, yet he managed to capture many hidden things.

They searched for people in the video, their eyes watering as they stared at the screen. Tan Jia simply closed his eyes and kneaded dough for a while as a rest. Then, he turned around and handed the task over to Lin Zhiyue, along with two photos of Huang Yilin.

For this kind of thing, you should find a professional with visual abilities.

Not long after she handed it in, Lin Zhiyue replied with the result and even called to inform her that the person circled in red was the one she was looking for.

Couldn't she see the meaning behind drawing the red line? The criminal investigation team listened to their conversation with mixed feelings.

Tan Jia ignored their stares and zoomed in on the circled person. Huang Yilin was actually hiding behind the crowd, looking up at the burning building from behind a tree in the community garden.

"It's said that arsonists love to return to the scene to see their masterpiece, and it's true. He actually kept staring at it, as if to make sure the twelfth floor was completely burned before he mingled into the crowd and left."

Tan Ming: "Eleven years of relationship, a mutual liking since high school, and he stayed in the same place just to make sure his wife was really dead. It shows that all that love and affection is a lie."

...Why does this feel so suggestive?

Tan Jia glanced at him, then turned to Zheng Yan and said, "Could you have someone check if there are any closer surveillance cameras around where he's standing? The face in the video is still a bit blurry."

Zheng Yan glanced at the brother and sister and assigned them tasks.

"Knock knock—" The forensic investigator entered the office. "Captain Zheng, the results of the crime scene investigation are in." The forensic examination at the scene is crucial evidence for determining who the murderer and arsonist are, so Zheng Yan quickly got up and followed.

The laboratory was filled with almost entirely black stuff; some of it had been washed clean, while others had been cut into small pieces and placed in test tubes.

"These are the burnt fabric remnants collected next to the body at the scene. They are made of cotton, linen, and polyester fibers. According to the homeowner's inventory of the original items in the house, these should be clothes and pillows that the murderer deliberately placed next to the body to aid combustion."

"The fire started where these clothes were piled up; the murderer deliberately set the fire and burned the body."

"In addition, we extracted some melted plastic from the floor, one of which had a damaged microcrystalline screen on its edge. Based on the deceased's medical report, we speculate that this was an electronic insulin pen."

Electronic insulin pen?

A thought flashed through Tan Jia's mind, and she quickly asked, "Does this insulin pen have a smarter function than other syringes? Can it connect to a mobile app and record data?"

The forensic investigator nodded: "It's mostly possible. Once connected via Bluetooth, it can record the injection dosage and injection time in real time."

Zheng Yan and the others' eyes lit up.

The records in the software cannot be destroyed, and they can use this to confirm whether the deceased was injected with an excessive amount of insulin before being murdered.

They investigated immediately. Although the deceased's phone had been burned, the all-powerful technical team was still able to find enough information. Before long, they found the data stored in the deceased's insulin injection record software.

Several heads huddled together to look. Old Li, standing in the middle, identified the last injection dose and said definitively, "It's an overdose. Injecting this much in a short time is enough to kill someone."

Zheng Yan glanced at the time: "It was injected in the early hours of last night, which is different from the previous injection time. It is very likely that the murderer forced her to be injected after finding her."

“The records are so short,” Tan Jia noticed something different. “The electronic pen records only started in the last month. Why would the deceased switch to more advanced equipment to record data this month? Was it simply because they wanted to use something more high-tech, or did the deceased sense something and switch to this device that can detect injection dosage?”

The deceased and Huang Yilin had been together for eleven years, spending seven of them together day and night. Did they really not notice anything wrong with Huang Yilin at all?

She came to see Zhou Yan last night and said that she thought Huang Yilin realized that the child was not his, and that she was unwilling to go back to Huang Yilin's home when it was time to leave. Did she realize what was going to happen, so she ran away to seek refuge?

“I’m afraid the deceased really did sense the malice of her bedmate, which is why she acted this way,” Zheng Yan said, thinking of the other side of the news. “And Huang Yilin might not even know that she switched to an injection pen that can record data.”

This is an excellent entry point to pry open Huang Yilin's mouth.

As soon as they left the trace evidence laboratory, Zheng Yan said, "We can bring Huang Yilin with us now."

Xiao Chen immediately set off with his men, but halfway there, the police officer who was watching Huang Yilin sent him an urgent message.

Huang Yilin drove off!

　In fact, this major case has only just begun to unfold.
