At seven o 'clock, Han Bin returned home.
As soon as he entered the door, Wang Huifang grabbed his arm and looked him up and down. "Son, are you hurt today?"
"What are you talking about? How could I possibly be injured?" Han Bin was a little puzzled.
"Mom saw it. A car exploded in Qingdao today. Didn't you take the lead to put out the fire?"
"You can even recognize that?" Han Bin laughed.
Seeing that Han Bin didn't seem to be hurt, Wang Huifang was relieved. "Oh, I've been worried the whole afternoon."
"What fire? How come I didn't know?" Han Tingqian was confused.
Wang Huifang only saw the news on her phone and only told her husband. She didn't want Han Tingqian to worry, so she didn't tell him.
"Grandpa, it's nothing. A car was on fire and I happened to see it, so I took the fire extinguisher to put it out."
"Brother Bin, be careful in the future. Fire and water are merciless. Don't do things you're not sure about," Han Tingqian said.
"Yes, I'll listen to you," Han Bin agreed happily.
Han Weidong also walked out of the kitchen. "Isn't the fire in Chang 'an District? Why did you go there? "
"We went there to investigate a case and happened to see it on our way back." Han Bin shrugged.
"Who's in charge of that case now?"
"I think it's probably taken over by the city's criminal investigation team."
"That's good." Han Weidong was also a criminal police officer and had dealt with fraud cases before. He knew that this kind of case was very dangerous. Once there was a fraud, even the police officers could be hurt.
"Alright, it's good that you don't have to investigate this case. Mom will go make something delicious for you."
"What delicious food?" Han Bin was indeed a bit hungry.
"Dumplings with three delicacies."
"I'll make some dishes to go with wine. Dumplings will taste better with wine." Han Weidong rubbed his hands together.
"You can drink with grandpa. I won't drink tonight."
Usually, it was fine to drink a little, but now that Han Bin had a case on hand, if there really was an emergency, the police would be dispatched to investigate at night.
Twenty minutes later, the family began to eat. There were dumplings stuffed with three delicacies, a plate of peanuts, a plate of soy sauce beef, and a plate of spinach vermicelli.
Although this meal couldn't be considered a delicacy, it was definitely delicious.
Han Bin ate two plates of dumplings and half a plate of beef.
Han Tingqian watched his grandson eat and took a sip of wine. It was a beautiful scene.
Of course, if he had a granddaughter-in-law and had a great-grandson, that would be even better.
…
Yuhua Branch, Criminal Investigation Team Three, Team Two Office.
Today, Team Two arrived much earlier than usual.
This was Han Bin's usual practice. If there were no important clues at night, he would go home early and rest.
The next day, he went to work early.
Investigating a case during the day was more convenient than investigating a case at night, and he also had more energy.
When Han Bin was in school, he had read some inspirational books. At that time, he felt that a person's potential was limitless. As long as he was willing to work hard, as long as he persevered, there was nothing he couldn't do.
Later, after putting it into practice, Han Bin found that this saying only applied to a small number of people.
As he grew older and experienced some things, Han Bin increasingly felt that a person's energy was limited.
Don't rely on willpower when you're tired. Willpower would retaliate, and once it did, it was very likely to destroy one's confidence.
That was very scary.
Han Bin poured a cup of coffee and yawned. "Everyone, what's the progress of the new investigation?"
Tian Li went straight to the point. "Leader, Xue Lipeng is being treated in the People's Hospital of Qingdao City. He has a cerebral hemorrhage and is still in a coma. His condition is rather critical."
"Did you find his phone?"
"We found it, but he broke it."
"Did you give it to the forensics team?"
"After I got the phone back last night, I gave it to the forensics team and asked them to work overnight to find the video that provoked Xue Lipeng," Tian Li said as she took out a USB.
"According to the forensics team's investigation, the video was sent using Xue Mengjiao's WeChat ID."
"What's the content of the video?"
"It's the whole process of Xue Mengjiao's murder. It's definitely a huge blow to a father." Tian Li sighed.
"Use the projector to play the video again."
"Yes."
The video was shot in a car. The front seats of the car were put down, and there was a man and a woman in the back. The woman's hands were tied. She was the victim, Xue Mengjiao, and the man was wearing a mask.
Xue Mengjiao's clothes were taken off, and she was bullied and murdered …
The content of the video was a little depressing, and the people present felt a little uncomfortable when they saw it.
But as a police officer, no matter what the evidence was, as long as it was related to solving the case and could lead to important clues, they had to check it.
Otherwise, if there was important information in the video, they might miss it, and the case could not be solved.
After the video was played three times, Han Bin said, "We can confirm that this is the video of the victim's murder. It's very important evidence and clues. Tell me what you found."
"The murderer is a bit thin, average height, and his hair looks like burrs. Unfortunately, he's wearing a mask, so we can't see what he looks like." Zhao Ming was the first to speak.
"Can we investigate the source of the mask?" Tian Li suggested.
Li Hui then said, "This mask looks like a sex mask, and it's sold on many websites. I'm afraid it won't be easy to investigate from the sales channel because there are too many of them."
Hearing that, everyone turned to look at Li Hui.
Li Hui was a bit embarrassed. "I'm not sure … I heard it from others, but it seems to be the case."
Han Bin knocked on the table with his index finger. "Sex toys are the same as luck shields. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. I'll leave the clue of the mask to you."
Li Hui rolled his eyes and didn't say anything else.
"This murderer is too cruel. Not only did he kill his daughter, he even let the father see it with his own eyes. This is worse than killing the father. Now, I think the real person the murderer wants revenge on is the father." Lynch was older than the people present, and he was already married with a child. He understood how a father felt.
"You're saying the murderer's real target is Xue Lipeng?"
"I'm just deducing it from my heart," Lynch said.
"According to what you said, how do you explain the first victim, Gu Yuwen? Is there some kind of relationship between Gu Yuwen and Xue Lipeng? "Li Hui asked.
"I'm afraid only Xue Lipeng himself would know." Lynch sighed.
Tian Li shrugged. "Ignoring the fact that Xue Lipeng is currently unconscious, even if he wakes up, it's not convenient for him to give a statement. If he gets agitated again, it might not be possible to save him. At that time, it'll be the police's responsibility."
Han Bin thought about it for a moment and asked, "Other than the relationship that Lynch mentioned, why do you think the murderer sent the video to Xue Lipeng?"
"Could it be Xia Binhai?" Sun Xiaopeng said.
"What's your opinion?"
"Xia Binhai is Lin Yuejiao's lover. If he killed Xue Mengjiao, no one would stop him from being with Lin Yuejiao. If he angered Xue Lipeng to death, Lin Yuejiao would be single. Xia Binhai would be able to be with Lin Yuejiao, "Sun Xiaopeng made a bold guess.
"Although Lin Yuejiao is still attractive, she's not young anymore. There are plenty of good women out there. Why would Xia Binhai take such a big risk?" Tian Li didn't understand.
Li Hui frowned and seemed to remember something. "I remember that Lin Yuejiao once said that Xia Binhai was the founder of Jiaojiao's beauty salon. When the company was founded, Xia Binhai was there. In other words, Xia Binhai had feelings for the company. If he married Lin Yuejiao, he would become the boss of Jiaojiao's beauty salon."
Li Hui paused and continued, "But this opportunity was destroyed by Xue Mengjiao. Not only was he dumped by Lin Yuejiao, but he was also fired by the company. He must be very angry, which gave him the motive to kill. As long as Xue Mengjiao and Xue Lipeng were eliminated, Xia Binhai would not only get Lin Yuejiao, but also a huge fortune."
Han Bin heard this reasoning and felt that it was somewhat familiar. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that Detective Conan's case seemed to have a similar plot of murder for money.
As expected of a man who has read all of Detective Conan's works.
Of course, Li Hui's analysis also made some sense. Xia Binhai did have the motive to do such a thing.
Han Bin pointed to Du Qi, "Did you find out the phone number used by Xia Binhai?"
"Yes," Sun Xiaopeng said and took a document and put it on the projector.
Owner's name: Qiao Dongkai
Address: Lai Ping City, Dong 'an Street, 108, Power Plant Courtyard, Unit 1, Room 401
Mobile Phone: 1342454 xxx
ID Card No.: 3702XXXXX
Li Hui pointed to the projector, "This Qiao Dongkai is from Lai Ping City. The first victim of the snowman case is also from Lai Ping City. Isn't this too much of a coincidence?"
"Could it be that Qiao Dongkai is Xia Binhai himself?" Zhao Ming said.
Du Qi introduced, "We have checked in the public security system. This Qiao Dongkai has no criminal record. The appearance in the photo also doesn't match. It's not Xia Binhai's real identity."
"Does Qiao Dongkai have any other phone number?"
"Yes."
"Write an application and locate Qiao Dongkai's phone number. This person's relationship with Xia Binhai is certainly not ordinary. It's very likely that he knows Xia Binhai's real identity." Han Bin ordered.
Finding Qiao Dongkai is equivalent to knowing Xia Binhai's real identity.
"Tian Li, ask Jiaojiao Beauty Salon for a clear photo of Xia Binhai. Do a face recognition comparison in the public security system."
"Yes."
Speaking of this, Han Bin remembered something, "Du Qi, have you checked Xue Lipeng's communication records?"
Du Qi nodded, "Yes."
"Are there any contacts that are suspected to be Xue Lipeng's lover?" Han Bin asked.
"Xue Lipeng has a lot of contacts. His social circle is also quite wide, but I haven't found any particularly frequent female friends." Du Qi said.
"Don't leave this clue. Continue to investigate." Han Bin ordered.
"Yes."
Han Bin stood up and stretched his body, "Du Qi, Tian Li, Xiaopeng, the three of you stay in the city. Li Hui and Zhao Ming, come with me to Lai Ping City."
Lai Ping City is the origin of the snowman case. Whether it's investigating Qiao Dongkai or making a statement for Gu Yuwen's husband, it's necessary to go there …
