Although Miao Ying called a group of police officers, they did not take the man back to the police station. Instead, they questioned him on the spot and asked him to give them detailed information about Xie Tongguo.
After that, the police officers searched the house. Although the house had not been extensively renovated, none of Xie Tongguo's personal belongings were found.
It seemed that Xie Tongguo must have dealt with the house in advance.
The house was like this, and naturally, the basement was no exception. In the dusty basement, there were only junk and junk. There was nothing of value.
Cui Lizhu complained to Zhao Yu about this.
Feeling that they could not find any more clues about Xie Tongguo's house, Zhao Yu, Miao Ying, and Cui Lizhu had to temporarily return to the Golden City Police Station and continue to direct the arrest.
When the three of them returned to the police station, Ran Tao came back with more definite news.
Ran Tao was also smart. He had long realized that the intermediary company was the best way to break into the case. So, he asked the manager to call several employees who had worked with Xie Tongguo and ask them about Xie Tongguo's situation.
As a result, the employees confirmed that it was Xie Tongguo who had signed the house purchase contract with Hao Lili!
That contract could have allowed Xie Tongguo to get a generous commission. Unfortunately, Hao Lili unilaterally broke the contract and left the agency to buy a newly opened house.
Because of this, Xie Tongguo had a conflict with the manager at the time. Xie Tongguo was angry with Hao Lili's behavior, so he wanted to sue her in court. However, the manager naturally disagreed, because according to their contract, even if he sued, he should be the owner of the house, not the agency.
As a result, the stubborn Xie Tongguo went to the owner of the house to argue with him. However, the owner of the house did not suffer any loss, and he had even earned a deposit from Hao Lili.
So, in the end, Xie Tongguo could only suffer in silence.
In fact, this kind of business was quite common in an agency. If they sued every time, the agency wouldn't be able to do business.
However, that deal might not be important to others, but it was very important to Xie Tongguo.
Xie Tongguo's mother had died when he was young, and his father had been seriously ill. Now that he had finally found a job, he wanted to make money to treat his father's illness, and he also wanted to keep working in the company.
Therefore, no one knew how important Hao Lili's commission was to him!
Soon, after Hao Lili's case was investigated, Xie Tongguo's colleagues began to dig out other information.
According to the memory of an elderly female employee, when Xie Tongguo first came to the agency, he received a complaint in less than half a month. Someone said that he had a bad attitude and was deceiving customers. Because of this, Xie Tongguo was almost fired by the company.
However, as the employees became more familiar with each other, they finally figured out the truth.
In order to earn money for his family, Xie Tongguo rode a tricycle at night. In the end, one day, when he was working, he accidentally had a conflict with a tricycle driver who was transporting goods.
Not only did the two of them quarrel, but they also fought. Xie Tongguo was no match for the strong delivery driver, so he naturally suffered a big loss.
But after the incident, the delivery driver still didn't let it go. He didn't know where he heard that Xie Tongguo was an employee of the real estate agency. He came to the company to ask Xie Tongguo to show him the house under the guise of buying a house.
Not only did he tease Xie Tongguo for a whole day, but he also called the company to complain about Xie Tongguo.
One could imagine how much Xie Tongguo hated this person.
Although they didn't know the driver's name, Zhao Yu and the others could guess that the tricycle driver was exactly the same as Zhan Jiankang's information.
So, if the murderer was really Xie Tongguo, it would make sense that Zhan Jiankang was his first target of revenge!
After that, the relationship between the third victim, Sun Peibin, and Xie Tongguo was also confirmed by the employees.
According to the employees, Sun Peibin was a regular customer of the real estate agency. However, the reason why he was called a regular customer was not because he often bought and sold houses, but because he liked to show off.
Sun Peibin was just a pig farmer. He lived a poor life, but he liked to pretend to be rich and flirt with women. In order to win the women's favor, he often brought different women to the real estate agency to show them the best houses.
The employees all knew his background, so they naturally didn't care about him. However, Xie Tongguo, who was new to the real estate agency, thought that Sun Peibin really wanted to buy a house, so he tried his best to show him the houses every time.
Sun Peibin felt that he had a special status, so every time he showed off, Xie Tongguo would come and serve him. Later, when Xie Tongguo gradually understood the situation, he stopped accepting Sun Peibin's help.
However, the shameless Sun Peibin even insulted Xie Tongguo in public, which made him look very bad.
Not long after, the fourth victim, Pei Zhi's background was also exposed by the employees.
It turned out that a long time ago, Pei Zhi had signed a contract with Xie Tongguo to buy a cheap second-hand house. But, just like Hao Lili, he managed to contact the owner of the house through his connections. Then, he got rid of the real estate agency.
In the end, another employee revealed another piece of important news. When Xie Tongguo was fired from the company, he happened to be in charge of the houses in the Xianghe Home area. Moreover, after Xie Tongguo was fired, the company found that several keys were missing.
However, because there was no concrete evidence, and the keys were not very important, no one paid attention to them.
From this, it seemed that Xie Tongguo had already been planning this serial murder case at that time!
After getting this information, Zhao Yu and the others could basically confirm that Xie Tongguo was the murderer of the serial murder case! The next key task was to figure out how to arrest Xie Tongguo.
Although Xie Tongguo's case was not suitable for a citywide arrest warrant, Zhao Yu and Miao Ying still believed that important places, such as stations and intersections, still needed to be arranged in advance. This was to prevent Xie Tongguo from escaping in advance.
"I think …" After Zhao Yu finished assigning tasks, Cui Lizhu suggested, "Since Xie Tongguo might have hidden the key, then … Could he be hiding in one of the houses? Like at the crime scene where he was electrocuted? "
"Hey! That's a good idea! " Zhao Yu nodded, then quickly called Ran Tao and asked him to find out which houses' keys had been lost.
Zeng Ke hesitated, then said, "Why don't we send someone to search the Xianghe Home area again? If Xie Tongguo is hiding there, wouldn't he be so close to the murder scene? "
"No!" Miao Ying said, "If we search in a large area, it will attract attention! Miao Ying waved at Wu Xiumin and said, "Send a group of people to the Xianghe Home area! That will be safer! "
Wu Xiumin nodded and was about to make a call according to Miao Ying's instructions.
"I have another idea …" At this time, Zhao Yu suddenly asked Wu Xiumin, "Wu, according to the plot of 11 Kills, how did the next victim die? Where did he die? "
"He drowned!" Wu Xiumin said. "He died in an abandoned swimming pool! There was still some water in the pool, so the protagonist faked the victim falling into the water! "
"What?"
After hearing this, Zhao Yu seemed to be deeply hurt. He frowned and asked, "A swimming pool is a swimming pool. Why was it an abandoned swimming pool?"
