It didn't take long for a police officer to buy delicious Western food for Zhao Yu and the others, including steak, hamburgers, pizza, and so on.
Zhao Yu had been starving for the past two days, so he ignored the doctor's advice and ate to his heart's content.
However, because of the urgency of the case, he took the opportunity to watch the video of Wu Xiumin's interrogation of Han Kuan from the beginning to the end.
It turned out that during the interrogation, Wu Xiumin had asked Han Kuan the names of his classmates who had gone to Beiqian with him. Han Kuan replied that there were five people who had gone to Beiqian with him, four men and one woman, who had been personally selected by Mr. Lang.
However, because it had been a long time and they were not familiar with each other, Han Kuan couldn't remember their names.
In addition to Mr. Lang, he only remembered a girl named Li Yan. Not long after they arrived in Beiqian, the SARS epidemic broke out. Li Yan was afraid that she would get sick in Beiqian, so she went home early.
After they started working, the rest of the people were assigned to different places, so they didn't communicate much with each other. As such, Han Kuan couldn't remember their names.
Zhao Yu carefully observed Han Kuan's reaction, and just as Wu Xiumin had said, he didn't show any signs of nervousness or excitement, except that he was a little dispirited. As he spoke, it was as if he was talking about a very normal thing.
However, just like when he was dealing with Han Kuan's wife murder case, the more normal Han Kuan looked, the more Zhao Yu felt that he was guilty. Especially when he recalled Han Kuan's amazing performance in the toilet, Zhao Yu concluded that he was definitely not an innocent man who could stay out of the matter.
Even if he wasn't the murderer of the Devil Case, he must have some inside information!
While Zhao Yu was watching the video, Miao Ying had found out some new information. Through interviews, she learned that one of the victims of the Devil Case, the teacher of the Guang 'an School for the Deaf and Mute, had indeed bullied students and even sexually assaulted female students.
In addition, the owner of the shop in Yingping was also rumored to have forced female employees to take off their clothes and drink with him!
Zhao Yu remembered that Captain Jin's yellow notebook had also mentioned the owner of the shop. However, because the persecuted female employee denied it, there were no results in the end.
Now, it seemed that the rumors might be true. Either the boss had given the female employee hush money, or the female employee was afraid that the scandal would harm her and didn't dare to admit it …
Too similar!
After hearing such news, Zhao Yu and Cui Lizhu felt that the Devil Case and the Headless Female Corpses Case were surprisingly similar. The victims of the Devil Case may have oppressed and bullied others when they were alive, and the murderer's purpose was to use extreme means to punish them for their crimes.
So … Was Han Kuan an oppressed victim or a terrible murderer?
Tsk tsk …
Although Han Kuan was very suspicious, Zhao Yu still felt that Han Kuan and Li Fei were two completely different people. If Han Kuan was really the murderer of the Devil Case, he shouldn't be acting so normal.
The Special Investigation Group didn't slack off, and so did the Yaoming Police Station. In just one morning, they had found the information of several of Han Kuan's classmates who had gone to Beiqian with him.
The news confirmed that Han Kuan was telling the truth. There were indeed four boys and one girl who had gone to Beiqian with him, a total of five people. As for the girl named Li Yan, she had returned to her hometown because of the outbreak of the virus.
Therefore, the focus of the police's investigation was quickly shifted to the remaining three boys. It was learned that the three boys, like Han Kuan, had only worked in Beiqian for half a year. After earning a small amount of money from Mr. Lang, they had returned to their hometown to work.
At present, the Yaoming Police Station had contacted the local police station and was investigating the three boys' hometown to see if there had been any similar cases to the Devil Case. If there were, the real murderer of the Devil Case would naturally come to light!
As the saying goes, follow the vine to the melon. Once you have a target, the investigation can continue.
Since Li Yan had been ruled out as a suspect, Zhao Yu immediately asked Cui Lizhu to call Li Yan to find out more about the situation.
But, after the call was connected, Li Yan refused to cooperate. She insisted that Cui Lizhu was committing wire fraud, then hung up the phone.
In desperation, Zhao Yu and the others had to contact the local police through the authorities. The local police then informed Li Yan's superior. Only then did Li Yan believe Zhao Yu.
Of course, the name of the Criminal Division was not just for show. Not only did Li Yan believe Zhao Yu, but she was also so shocked that she couldn't even speak properly.
However, Li Yan had a good memory, so she immediately told Zhao Yu the names of all the other people, including Han Kuan.
Li Yan said that the reason why she had gone to Beiqian with Mr. Lang to earn extra money was that, in addition to getting paid, she was from Nanjiang, which was not far from Beiqian.
At that time, she was mainly responsible for clerical work such as delivery and bookkeeping. Her work was not tiring, and she also earned a lot of money.
However, no matter how much money she had, it was not as important as her life. So, when the SARS suddenly broke out, she chose to resign and go home. Although Mr. Lang was a little reluctant, he had no choice. She only worked for less than half a month before returning to her hometown in Nanjiang.
"Well …" At Zhao Yu's signal, she asked on the phone, "Tell me more about the other students in detail!"
"The other students … Okay …" Li Yan recalled a little, then said, "Liu Haoran delivered the goods with me, Sang Wenliang was in charge of the transportation, and Li Qiang and Han Kuan were technicians who were responsible for equipment installation and maintenance …"
Oh?
Hearing this, Zhao Yu's eyes lit up, and he quickly wrote down Li Qiang's name on a piece of paper. Among the three people, only Li Qiang and Han Kuan did the same kind of work, so Li Qiang was naturally the most suspicious!
"Oh … Yes!" Li Yan thought for a moment, then said, "Among these boys, I only don't know Han Kuan well. The other three boys are all in the same class with me! Mr. Lang is the head teacher of our class, and Han Kuan is in class 11. Mr. Lang has only taught his class before. I don't understand why Mr. Lang asked him to come here. I think … Maybe it's because he's good at teaching … "
Oh?
Not in the same class, nor is he their head teacher …
Just as Zhao Yu realized something, Officer Wang gently pulled him and showed him some information. According to the information, Li Qiang was from Zhao County, which happened to be under the jurisdiction of Yingping.
In other words, Li Qiang's hometown was located in Beiqian. Beiqian was the most sensitive area in the Devil Case. If Li Qiang was the murderer, then if similar cases happened in the future, it would inevitably attract the attention of the police. Therefore, Li Qiang was not a big suspect.
Then …
If Li Qiang was not a suspect, then …
At this time, Li Yan was still talking on the phone, while Zhao Yu spread all the information he had obtained so far on his bed.
Oh …
Suddenly, he found another problem. Among the five students, only Han Kuan was from the Golden City, which was far from Beiqian. As for the other four people, they all lived near Beiqian.
They were not in the same class, and their hometown was not near Beiqian.
In comparison, Han Kuan's work in Beiqian was undoubtedly very strange. Moreover, Lang Xiangyang was not Han Kuan's teacher at all.
Suddenly, Zhao Yu thought of a key question, and he had goosebumps all over his body!
Why did Lang Xiangyang choose Han Kuan?
