Eyes that are the same as those of evil

Chapter 254 Perfectionism 8
Their attention returned to the car accident that occurred earlier this year.

Xiao Chen went to the traffic police station to retrieve the files, and together with the video, everyone sat down to watch them.

"The biggest problem that caused this accident was the car that was going the wrong way. It was probably waiting behind the truck and got impatient. It thought it could get back to its original lane by being sandwiched between several cars in front and behind it, so it was going very fast."

“Normally, vehicles traveling in the opposite direction could slow down or swerve to avoid the accident at this point. Even if they suffer a loss and have a good rant in their cars, they could at least avoid the crash. But coincidentally, there was a car parked on the side of the road at that time. A girl was having an anxiety attack and was taking her medication on the side of the road. She was looking down and didn’t see what was happening in front of her. The cars that tried to avoid her couldn’t get through, and in just a few seconds, several cars crashed together. There were also large trucks on both lanes, and there wasn’t enough distance to brake suddenly, causing a chain-reaction collision.”

Tan Jia watched the footage from the road surveillance camera as if she were watching a car company's model test. She didn't feel anything when several cars collided until she saw the taxi she was in on the screen.

“I’m in that car,” she pointed.

The feeling of seeing this car accident from a high-altitude, third-person perspective is very different. You can't even see your own face clearly by the car window, and the pain that lingered for a long time feels very distant.

Xiao Chen then pointed and said, "The deceased's car is here."

The taxi that Tan Jia was in was in a different lane, which was the lane that the vehicle traveling in the wrong direction should have been in, so the accident was not that serious.

"After the accident, the driver of the car going the wrong way died on the spot, the driver of the car that was hit was seriously injured, and the girl who was taking medicine by the roadside was also seriously injured. She and most of the others were sent to the city hospital for treatment."

"The doctor who examined the deceased was Yuan Qing. According to people in the hospital, the deceased fell in love at first sight. During the week he stayed in the hospital, he fawned over her like a peacock. After being discharged, he began to pursue her seriously, picking her up and dropping her off at get off work, showing concern for her well-being, and giving her gifts. After about three months, he finally won her over."

"This part of the story couldn't possibly have been predicted in advance, could it? Judging from the surveillance footage, the driver going the wrong way was trying to change lanes and overtake, taking a chance. The driver who was supposed to avoid them didn't have time to swerve, and the driver who rear-ended them didn't have time to brake either. Could someone have orchestrated this ingenious accident specifically to kill the victim?" Tan Ming analyzed.

Tan Jia also said, "Moreover, Yuan Qing is not a suspect in this part. She was the one being pursued. The deceased's love at first sight and three months of pursuit are uncertain and uncontrollable. If there are problems with their whirlwind marriage, the problem should lie with the deceased."

Zheng Yan tapped his pen absently, pondered for a moment, and said, "Who were the people who went to the hospital with the deceased at the time? Make a list and check them one by one."

Another long list of names.

"The network of relationships they've investigated this time is incredibly extensive." Tan Jia's eyes were practically dazzled by the sheer number of connections.

The victims of the car accident at the beginning of the year, the deceased driver, the deceased's relatives and friends, the deceased's wife, the semi-trailer truck driver, and the drivers who appeared at the scene of the accident, dozens of people.

"This is the real process of investigating a case: sifting through countless piles of garbage to find what might be useful. You also have to be prepared that the garbage you painstakingly find might be fake, have no legal effect, or be wrong," Zheng Yan said earnestly.

Tan Jia nodded: "Luckily, I'm just a temporary worker."

"..." The earnest advice became a knife stuck in his heart.

Although I was mentally prepared that the investigation might yield no results, by some miracle, the connection with the deceased's relatives and friends led to some useful information.

“We found several close friends of the deceased through the contacts on his phone. One of them, Qu Xiangbin, is a bit suspicious.”

Tan Ming posted Qu Xiangbin's photo, drew a line connecting it to the name of the deceased Xu Youan, and then marked it with a whiteboard marker. "His family makes security monitoring equipment."

Tan Jia and the others raised their eyebrows simultaneously.

Tan Ming added, "Moreover, he seemed a little flustered by the speculation that 'Xu Youan may have been killed in retaliation.'"

Zheng Yan recalled the chat history he had seen on the deceased's phone and asked, "What did this person talk about with the deceased?"

“When they were eating, drinking, or going out, they would talk about Yuan Qing and ask if the deceased was serious.” Tan Ming posted the printed chat logs.

Tan Jia looked closely and realized that Qu Xiangbin and the deceased Xu Youan were very familiar with each other. When they chatted, they would omit the subject and send only a few simple words or even a small emoticon so that the other party could understand the complete meaning.

For example, "Want to see?", "Come on?", "Billiards", "Fresh", "Hurry up".

Only occasionally are a few sentences longer, such as "You're back to being a simp again? You don't even have time to go out for drinks." "Still haven't won her over yet? So arrogant." "At this age, I still find love around the corner. I'm speechless." "Are you going to read this or not? If not, I'll kick you out."

The deceased's reply was in the same tone.

Tan Ming reviewed a significant amount of the chat logs and corroborated the authenticity of some of the content: "Judging from the deceased's chat logs over the past six months, he was indeed very infatuated with Yuan Qing at the time, to the point of being obsessed. It seemed that Yuan Qing was in control during their relationship, which made some of his friends very unhappy."

“I’m very unhappy,” Tan Jia repeated ambiguously. “They’re all married now, and their unhappiness has continued from beginning to end. Xu Youan hasn’t even thought about correcting their views. It seems he’s quite enjoying those friends’ criticisms of Yuan Qing for being too arrogant.”

Tan Ming and the others all looked over; they had never thought about it from this perspective before.

Tan Jia continued, "Yuan Qing is highly educated, beautiful, and rich. The biggest charm these people talk about is Xu Youan's infatuation with her. But who knows what he's infatuated with? Is it her family's money, or her ability to perform surgery?"

"Also, the content of their conversations is wrong. Usually, when my friends send me messages like 'Want to watch?' 'There's something new here' 'Come on quickly,' they're telling me to watch sex education movies."

Commonly known as p.

Her bluntness shocked Tan Ming, who was her older brother, and he stammered the word but couldn't get it out.

"...Watch less."

“It is wrong to deprive adult women of their right to enlightenment.” Tan Jia leaned back in her chair, still relaxed, and glanced at the woman sideways.

Then he continued to spew venom: "However, Xu Youan and this Qu Xiangbin are obviously well past the age of enlightenment, and it's almost difficult for them to get up. We really need to investigate what they are looking at."

Zheng Yan: "..." Like I said, you know too much!
He coughed and said seriously, "We really need to investigate. Just because Qu Xiangbin's family runs a surveillance business, and we happened to find a miniature camera in the deceased's car, plus Qu Xiangbin's abnormal behavior, he must know some secrets about the deceased."
