"Captain Zheng, what's your reply?" Han Bin asked.
"Guo Jiahui's death may be related to the case we're investigating right now, so I suggest that we work together," Zheng Kaixuan said.
"That's a good suggestion. Otherwise, if we provide clues to solve the case, it will have nothing to do with us when the case is closed. That would be very hurtful," Li Hui said.
"Things haven't even started yet, but you're thinking quite far ahead." Zheng Kaixuan snorted and knocked on the table. "Do you think Guo Jiahui's death is directly related to the Peeping Tom case?"
"How did the city's criminal investigation team determine this case?" Han Bin asked.
"The case is still in the early stages of investigation, and the city's criminal investigation team hasn't come to a conclusion yet. But according to the current evidence, robbery, rape, and murder are the main suspects."
"Sigh, yesterday she was still a bright and beautiful person, and today she encountered this kind of thing. It's really tragic," Sun Xiaopeng lamented.
"A pitiful person must have a hateful side. If they want to earn ill-gotten gains, they have to bear the corresponding risks. They spent two million to bribe Li Xia. Think about how much profit there is in that," Li Hui said.
"Before we have enough evidence, I think we have to consider both possibilities. If it's really an accident, then the murderer's purpose is nothing more than to rob Guo Jiahui; if it's malicious revenge, then it should be related to the Peeping Tom case."
Han Bin concluded and continued, "I suggest that the city's criminal investigation team start with the murder case, and we start with the Peeping Tom case. Regardless of whether there's a breakthrough on the other side, we can still find the suspect who killed Guo Jiahui."
"I think so too. The city's criminal investigation team has taken over the crime scene. It's meaningless for us to rush there." Zheng Kaixuan had the experience of working with the city's criminal investigation team. The ability of the city's criminal investigation team was unquestionable, but the other party was directly under the city's bureau, and it was not easy for them to handle the case in the name of guiding the case.
The captain of the city's criminal investigation team also had the title of deputy captain of the criminal investigation team of Qingdao City, and he was a proper superior leader.
"If Guo Jiahui's death is related to the Peeping Tom case, could it be done by Mu Xinran?" Li Hui guessed.
"Jiang Erkang has already been arrested. What is Mu Xinran's purpose in doing this?" Zhao Ming asked.
"Jiang Erkang is the perpetrator of the Candid Video Case. Although he took responsibility for everything, this case is definitely not that simple. Guo Jiahui must be an insider, or even the planner. Jiang Erkang was arrested, and the videos on his phone and computer were searched, but it doesn't mean that Guo Jiahui didn't hide the surveillance video," Han Bin said.
"Guo Jiahui's actions can be considered as being too smart for her own good." Tian Li sighed.
"So, you also think that Mu Xinran did it? Should we summon her directly? "Li Hui asked.
"Evidence, we don't have any evidence now. How can we summon her?" Han Bin said.
Just like when Jiang Erkang was arrested, Han Bin felt that Guo Jiahui was also a participant, but Jiang Erkang took responsibility for everything. Without evidence to prove that Guo Jiahui was related to the case, Han Bin couldn't summon her.
The current situation was the same. Everyone suspected that this matter was done by Mu Xinran, but they still needed evidence.
"There's no hurry to summon her. The main thing now is to collect evidence." Zheng Kaixuan set the tone.
"Mu Xinran is a public figure. Even if she wanted to kill someone, it's unlikely that she would do it herself. Moreover, the victim was raped before her death. The suspect should be a man. I think it's very likely that she hired someone to kill someone." Han Bin said.
"Should we check Mu Xinran's communication records?" Li Hui suggested.
"Li Xia has been arrested. Who is with Mu Xinran now?" Han Bin asked.
"Her husband, Zhao Gengmin."
"Li Hui, bring someone to investigate Zhao Gengmin and Mu Xinran. Whether it's their communication records or their recent whereabouts, you must find out everything." Han Bin ordered.
"Yes."
"Zhao Ming, come with me to interrogate Jiang Erkang. Let's see if we can pry out more useful clues from his mouth." Han Bin suggested.
"Yes."
"I'll talk to the Municipal Bureau's Criminal Investigation Team," Zheng Kaixuan said.
…
Yu Hua Branch Interrogation Room.
Han Bin and Zhao Ming sat in the interrogation room. Jiang Erkang was handcuffed to the interrogation chair by the officer in charge.
"Hello, Officer Han." Jiang Erkang took the initiative to greet him.
"Jiang Erkang, I'm here today to tell you something," Han Bin said.
"Is the case about to be closed?" Jiang Erkang guessed.
Secretly taking pictures wasn't a big deal. He would only be locked up for a few days. The sooner the case was closed, the sooner he could finish his sentence. What was the point of staying here?
Han Bin shook his head. "What I want to talk about today is about your wife, Guo Jiahui."
"This secretly taking pictures has nothing to do with my wife. I did it all on my own. She doesn't know anything about it," Jiang Erkang said.
Han Bin didn't believe him at all. He continued to ask, "Does your wife have any secretly recorded videos?"
Jiang Erkang answered without hesitation, "No."
Han Bin stood up, lit a cigarette, and passed it to Jiang Erkang on the interrogation chair. "Take a puff."
"Thank you." Although Jiang Erkang didn't know why Han Bin gave him a cigarette, he had been craving it for a long time. He quickly took a puff.
"Do you have heart disease or any other diseases?" Han Bin asked.
"Officer Han, what do you mean?" Jiang Erkang was nervous. He shrank back as if he was afraid that Han Bin would hit him.
"Yes or no?"
"I have a lawyer. Don't do anything stupid." Jiang Erkang gulped and reminded him.
"Bang!" Zhao Ming slammed the table and scolded, "Put away your little thoughts. Don't measure the heart of a gentleman with your mean measure. Answer what I ask you."
"No, no." Jiang Erkang said.
"Something happened to your wife." Han Bin said.
"Something happened? What happened? "
"She died." Han Bin said truthfully.
"Officer Han, you are trying to get information from me. How could my wife die? She even helped me find a lawyer last night. I have told you everything I should. Don't lie to me." Jiang Erkang squeezed out a smile and took a few puffs of his cigarette.
"You should know better than me how much interest is involved in this case. What I said is true." Han Bin said sternly.
"No, how could my wife die? We have already discussed it. We are going to have a second child." Jiang Erkang shook his head.
"Her body was found in Anyang County, beside the Jinshui River. The county bureau reported it to the city bureau. Now the second squadron of the city bureau is in charge of this case. Considering that her death may be related to the candid photography case, we have already applied for a joint investigation." Han Bin said.
Jiang Erkang held the cigarette in his hand and shouted, "Impossible. I don't believe it. You must be lying to me."
"We have photos of the crime scene. If you think you can face it, I can show you the photos." Han Bin did not take the photos right away. He told him step by step to prevent him from being unable to accept it.
The other party was a prisoner and this was an interrogation room. If something happened, it would not be good for anyone.
"Now that technology is so advanced, the photos could be photoshopped. I don't believe it. You must be lying to me. I want to see her. I want to see her." Jiang Erkang's voice was choked and his eyes were red.
"I know it's not easy to accept, but it's the truth," Han Bin said.
"Impossible. I want to see her. If she's alive, I want to see her. If she's dead, I want to see her body."
"The body is in the city bureau. You are still in custody. You still need to go through the procedures to identify the body."
Jiang Erkang was silent for a long time. He clenched his fists tightly and said, "Photos, I want to see the photos."
Han Bin took out a few photos of Guo Jiahui's crime scene and put them on the interrogation chair.
After seeing these photos, Jiang Erkang's eyes turned red and he roared, "Ah!"
Han Bin took a few steps back. The interrogation room was soundproof, so it would not affect the people outside. However, the people inside must not feel good.
"Why did you kill her? Why did it turn out like this?!" Jiang Erkang let out a series of shrill screams and pounded on the interrogation chair.
