Regarding Xiao Zhen, Zhao Yu had two suspicions. Was he the real murderer or an accomplice?!
Although he didn't see Xiao Zhen when he was investigating at Feng Kuo's house, Zhao Yu had already shifted his attention to him!
Xiao Zhen was Feng Kuo's half-brother, who was two years younger than Feng Kuo.
Not only was Feng Kuo handsome, but he was also talented in wood carving, which was appreciated by his father.
Then … Towards such a big brother, would Xiao Zhen be jealous of him, and would he not hesitate to kill someone to frame Feng Kuo?
Imagine if his stepmother was a beautiful actress. Would Xiao Zhen be able to calmly accept the fact that his stepmother brought a brother who was not related to him by blood into his home?
If he framed Feng Kuo as a murderer, would he be able to protect his precarious position?
Thinking about it carefully, who could easily put the murder weapon into Feng Kuo's bedroom? As a "family," wouldn't Xiao Zhen be the easiest to handle?
And, most importantly, the two dots of blood that Liu Jiao left before she died, could it be that she wanted to write the word "Xiao"? Don't forget, the word "Xiao" had to be written vertically at the beginning. If it was written carelessly, wouldn't it be two dots of blood?
Could it be …
The real murderer who killed Liu Jiao and framed Feng Kuo was Xiao Zhen?!
Zhao Yu stared at Xiao Zhen's name for a long time and started to think about the possibility of such a deduction. But, combining the information from the files, Zhao Yu quickly overthrew the few deductions.
Firstly, according to Xiao Guofeng's confession, Feng Kuo and Xiao Zhen's relationship had always been good. When they reorganized their family, Feng Kuo was thirteen, and Xiao Zhen was eleven. The two of them weren't kids anymore. Plus, their ages were similar, so they became playmates and got along well.
It was said that Xiao Zhen willingly gave up the room on the second floor to Feng Kuo, and Feng Kuo often tutored Xiao Zhen.
Besides, the two of them had the same hobbies. They both liked wood carving, and whenever they were free, they would go to their family's wood factory to make things.
Although Xiao Zhen wasn't as accomplished as Feng Kuo, he was a rare talent. After Xiao Zhen graduated from high school, he stayed at his father's wood factory to help out. He was now a rather famous figure in Qinshan's wood carving industry!
Besides, not only did Xiao Zhen have a good relationship with Feng Kuo, but he also got along well with his stepmother, Feng Lin. They never had any conflicts.
Hence, in terms of motive, Xiao Zhen was unlikely to kill Liu Jiao and frame Feng Kuo.
Most importantly, Xiao Zhen had a clear alibi. On the day that Liu Jiao was killed, Xiao Zhen and his father, Xiao Guofeng, went to Lingyun City to deliver some goods. They only returned home around 11 o 'clock at night.
There was another point. According to Xiao Zhen's confession, Xiao Zhen had never seen Liu Jiao. He didn't know Liu Jiao at all. As for Liu Jiao's murder scene, there were obvious traces of an acquaintance committing the crime!
Taking a step back, even if Xiao Zhen really had a conflict with Feng Kuo, why didn't he target Feng Kuo directly? Why did he have to kill Liu Jiao in a roundabout way?
Therefore, based on the above points, the possibility of Xiao Zhen being the real murderer was next to nothing.
Then … Since Xiao Zhen wasn't likely to be the murderer, could he be an accomplice?
Then, Zhao Yu suddenly recalled what Xiao Guofeng had said. Even if someone had a good relationship with Feng Kuo, it wouldn't be to the extent of helping him escape from prison, right?
This sentence reminded Zhao Yu of something!
What kind of person would risk going to prison to help Feng Kuo escape from prison?
According to Zhao Yu's understanding, there were only two kinds of people who could do that. One was his sworn brother, who had a life-and-death relationship with him! The other was his own flesh and blood!
Judging from Feng Kuo's temperament and his environment, he shouldn't have any life-and-death relationships. So, the person who could help him escape from prison could only be his own flesh and blood!
Looking at Xiao Zhen, although he wasn't Feng Kuo's biological brother, the two of them had been calling each other brothers for many years.
So … Could Feng Kuo's accomplice be Xiao Zhen?
If he guessed correctly, wouldn't it mean that Xiao Zhen was the kidnapper who kidnapped Lan Shuping's daughter? And he knew where the hostage was hiding?
Then, Zhao Yu quickly looked at Feng Kuo's prison visit list. He realized that there were quite a number of records of Xiao Zhen's prison visits.
Tsk tsk …
Looking at the list, Zhao Yu felt that his deduction was plausible. It seemed that … Next, he had to pay close attention to Xiao Zhen.
Just as Zhao Yu was about to ask Zhang Jingfeng to check on Xiao Zhen, Team B's Xiao Liu suddenly walked in from the door.
"Team Leader Zhao, Team Leader Zhao!" Once he entered the door, Xiao Liu walked towards Zhao Yu with a mobile phone and said, "Team Leader Mao asked me to show you this!"
"What is it?" Zhao Yu asked.
"It's like this … We have already obtained the mobile phone photo of the parent who took a selfie at the entrance of the art school!" Xiao Liu said. "The parent said that it was her son's first day at the art school yesterday, so she took a selfie at the entrance of the school. She even took a short video! But … We checked for a long time, but we didn't find Lan Shuping's daughter! It seems that the timing isn't right. We might have missed it! "
"Alright!" Zhao Yu took the mobile phone and said, "Let's take a look! Give me the mobile phone first! "
"Alright!" Xiao Liu passed the mobile phone to Zhao Yu, then turned around and left.
Zhao Yu turned around and passed the mobile phone to Li Beini. He asked Li Beini to connect it to the projector, so that everyone could look through the big screen.
Just like what Xiao Liu had said, although the parent's mobile phone had high resolution, the timing wasn't right. There was no trace of Lan Shuping's daughter in the photo.
According to Lan Shuping, his daughter was wearing a white top and a red skirt, and she was carrying a drawing board on her back. But, everyone searched everywhere in the photo, but they couldn't find the target that matched the characteristics.
At that time, the female parent recorded a short video to send to her WeChat Moments. The video not only showed the school entrance, but also the entire area near the entrance.
But, in the video, there was still no trace of the little girl.
It seemed that the timing wasn't right! Maybe, when the female parent took the photo, either the kidnappers hadn't taken action yet, or the kidnapping had already been completed!
"Mm, wait a minute …" Li Beini suddenly thought of something and quickly typed on the keyboard. After a while, she raised her head and said to Zhao Yu and the others, "I compared the video of the hostage entering the blind spot. If we calculate according to the speed of the hostage's walking … Hey? There's no reason for that. "
"What's wrong?" Zhao Yu asked.
"The woman took a total of three minutes to take the photo. Two minutes after she took the photo, the hostage had already entered the blind spot!" Li Beini said solemnly. "In other words, according to the timing, it's impossible that the hostage didn't appear in the photo! But, if she wasn't in the photo, then … Where did she go? "
"Is that so?" Zhao Yu creased his eyebrows and pressed the play button again to continue playing the photo. The other police detectives opened their eyes wide and looked carefully!
But, after searching for a while, they still couldn't find anything.
Li Beini did some calculations on a piece of paper, then said to Zhao Yu, "Team Leader, I've calculated it. According to the normal speed, when the girl appears on the screen, it will be when the female parent records the video!"
"Oh?" Zhao Yu quickly played the video. In order to make it easier for everyone to find, he adjusted the playback speed to the slowest. He played the video frame by frame …
As time passed, everyone stared at the video with their eyes wide open. They didn't even dare to blink.
In the end, at the fifteenth second of the short video, Zhao Yu finally realized something. He quickly pressed the stop button and paused the video at a certain point!
Then, he walked in front of the projection screen and pointed at an image in the upper right corner. He said, "This … this thing … I think I've seen it somewhere before!"
When everyone heard this, they all stood up excitedly and looked at the location that Zhao Yu was pointing at. They saw Zhao Yu pointing at a slender woman with her back facing the camera!
"Bro, that's a woman. Why do you say it's a thing?" Li Beini asked, puzzled.
"Not a person! It's a thing! " Zhao Yu pointed at the screen and said, "Look, this woman is wearing a scarf. I … I'm sure that I've seen this scarf before! And … and I just saw it a few days ago … "
"What? Scarf? "
Everyone looked again and saw that the woman was wearing a yellow scarf around her neck.
"Zoom in! Zoom in a bit! " Li Beini quickly rushed forward and clicked on the zoom button. She zoomed in on the scarf!
"What is this?" Zhang Jingfeng was closer to the screen, so he saw it first. "That scarf has a sunflower drawn on it, right?"
"What?! Sunflower?! " Zhao Yu couldn't help but scream. His fingers were trembling as he said, "I … I remember! I remember … I saw it before! "
"From where, bro?" Li Beini quickly asked.
