Li Weiyi clenched his fists. "I know, his name is Zhang Tianyang. I've seen him once. He's very tall, with a parting hairstyle and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He looks like a traitor. I really hate myself for not beating him up then."
"What about the man who chased after Li Yuan in her junior year?"
Li Yuan's father grabbed her mother's shoulder. "Take a break. I'll explain."
"Did you find anything else on the victim?"
"You shouldn't have fought for the opportunity to study abroad. Give it up. You'll only be walking down a dead end."
Li Weiyi took over the conversation. "Yes, we went to the police station to report the case. However, the person used an anonymous phone card, so the police couldn't find the owner's identity. The police wanted to go to Tovia's company to understand the situation, but we thought about it and rejected the proposal. "
Bao Xing's jaw dropped. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation. "Zombie! This is too much! "
Han Bin asked, "Do you know the name of this competitor?"
Wang Xiao and Jiang Yang were responsible for checking the surveillance cameras at the entrance of the stadium.
"Does your daughter know who made the threatening phone call?" Han Bin asked.
"Tell me the details."
Li Qin walked over and whispered, "Team Leader, these two are the parents of the deceased, Li Yuan."
Before he finished his cigarette, there was a faint sound of crying coming from outside. It sounded like it came from the forensics room, but Han Bin didn't pay much attention to it.
Li Weiyi was stunned for a moment before he asked, "Officer Han, why do you ask?"
"Officer comrade, do you have any new clues?"
Li Weiyi shouted, "There's no point in talking about this now. The girl is all grown up and she wants her own privacy. As a father, I can't say anything about it."
"Other than Zhang Tianyang, do you have any other suspects?" Han Bin asked.
Han Bin didn't answer directly, but he agreed with Li Qin's words. The cause of the incident was Chen Yu, and the blonde was not easy to deal with either. It was inevitable that the two of them would have a conflict.
Bao Xing blurted out, "Zombie Killer!"
Han Bin explained, "Li Yuan was first electrocuted and then killed by the murderer. We suspect that the murderer's tool of crime was something like a stun baton."
"Has she been acting strangely lately?"
Li Qin understood the meaning behind her words. She stood up and sent Li Yuan's parents off.
Li Yuan's parents stood up and asked at the same time.
Li Weiyi thought for a while. "No, my daughter has always been a good girl. She would tell us anything. I've never heard of her having any conflicts with anyone else."
Li Yuan's mother choked with sobs. "At that time, we thought that it was probably a prank. The purpose was to interfere with our daughter's opportunity to study abroad. As long as Li Yuan obtained the opportunity to study abroad, it would be the best counterattack. We didn't expect … it would turn out like this, and we didn't expect that it would harm our daughter."
"At the scene, Li Yuan was only wearing a swimsuit. We didn't find anything else. Do you know if she had any personal belongings?"
Han Bin said perfunctorily, "Routine questioning. Rule out the possibility of Li Yuan committing a crime of passion."
Han Bin sized up the middle-aged couple. They did look a little like Li Yuan, but their emotions were a little unstable. One's eyes were red and the other was wiping tears.
"After further autopsy, Medical Examiner Li found male genetic material in the deceased's body."
Han Bin jotted it down in his notebook. "How many times has Li Yuan been threatened?"
"Where did she rent the apartment?"
But the murderer chose to kill the victim first before committing the crime.
After hearing that, Li Yuan's mother was agitated. "Officers, did you hear that? He kept threatening my daughter, even hinting that he would kill my daughter. The person who made the phone call must be the murderer."
"The last threatening phone call was made the day before the third round of competition. At that time, my daughter only had one competitor. If my daughter had given up on that day, the opportunity to study abroad would undoubtedly have fallen into the hands of that competitor."
"I know. My daughter loves sports, and we support her," Li Yuan's mother replied.
"Those who are qualified to compete for the opportunity to study abroad are the elites of Tovia Company. There were ten in the first round, four in the second, and only two in the third."
"There were, but … it was a long time ago." Li Yuan's mother closed her eyes and thought for a while. "When she was a freshman, she had a boyfriend. We only found out later, and they broke up in the second year."
"Why did you interfere with the police investigation?"
Li Yuan's mother said without hesitation. "My daughter also has a platinum necklace that I gave her. The necklace has a heart-shaped pendant with a diamond in the middle. She likes that necklace very much and wears it everywhere she goes."
Han Bin noted it down in his notebook. "Did she live alone or with someone else?"
"I don't remember. Officer, why do you ask?"
To put it bluntly, it was already past one in the morning. Other than those who needed to work the night shift, ordinary people would not be home that late.
Li Can glanced at the office and whispered, "Yes, there were no defensive wounds or signs of struggle on the victim's body. It's very likely that she was electrocuted and strangled to death. The murder weapon was most likely a belt, and we found a man's genetic material in the victim's body."
Han Bin said, "Bao Xing went with her to identify the body first, then came back to make a statement."
"That's true. There are many people chasing after my daughter, but she hasn't met the right one yet."
According to Ma Jingbo's analysis, the victim should have been killed by the pool. In order to cover up the evidence, the murderer threw the body into the pool. Now, it seemed that it was most likely to destroy the genetic material left in the victim's body.
"Officer, my name is Li Weiyi. I'm Li Yuan's father. If you have anything you want to know, just ask me."
The hoarse voice sounded again. "I hope you can always be so confident. Let me give you another piece of advice. You'd better be careful. Be careful at work, when you eat, and when you go home. Otherwise, you'll lose more than just your job."
"It was too sudden. It's understandable." Han Bin comforted them. "How about this? Go back and have a good rest. When you remember, you can contact Officer Li again."
"Yes."
"Because there were no witnesses, when we arrived at the scene, the murderer had already escaped. We don't know the murderer's situation for the time being. The case is still in the investigation stage. I've invited the two of you here to confirm the victim's identity and to understand some of Li Yuan's circumstances before she died."
A hoarse voice sounded from the phone. "Hey, chick, I heard that you passed the second round of the test. Not bad. Should I congratulate you, or should I say that it's a pity that you made the wrong decision?"
"She lives alone."
Bao Xing yawned and could not help but ask, "Team Leader, what new clues did Dr. Li find?"
"Is Zhang Tianyang still at Tovia Company?"
After returning to the Municipal Bureau, Ma Jingbo went to the technical department.
Han Bin frowned. Although he had heard of such a situation, it was the first time he had encountered it.
Han Bin looked envious. After watching Li Can leave, he glanced at the report in his hand and sighed.
Creak … The door creaked. Li Can walked in from outside, holding a document in his hand. He glanced at Li Yuan's parents and gave Han Bin a look.
"Are there any other items?"
Half an hour later, Li Qin and Bao Xing returned to the office. Behind them was a middle-aged man and woman. They supported each other and looked haggard.
Li Weiyi shook his head. "We didn't tell anyone else. As for whether she told anyone else, we're not sure. She's grown up now and working. It's impossible for us to know everything about her."
"Apart from you, does anyone else know?"
"Now that Li Yuan has obtained the opportunity to study abroad, we thought that the matter was over. I didn't expect something to happen to her. If I had known that this would happen, I would not have let her compete."
Li Qin snorted. "If you ask me, you must have nothing better to do if you don't sleep at night."
Li Weiyi said weakly, "A few days ago, after my daughter obtained the opportunity to study abroad, I gave her an iPhone. It's the latest model. She likes it very much, so she must have brought it with her."
Li Yuan's mother said, "That's impossible. My daughter is focused on her work now and is about to go abroad. How could she have any emotional entanglements? It can't be."
Li Weiyi tried hard to recall for a while and shook his head. "I can't remember. I have to go back and look for it."
"Yes. Some time ago, my daughter was threatened."
The results of the test coincided with Ma Jingbo's speculation.
Han Bin asked, "Do you know anyone who uses electric batons? Or do you know where to buy them?"
"Haha …" Han Bin laughed and patted Bao Xing on the shoulder. He did not answer the question. "The coffee is not bad. It's almost as good as Qianqian's."
Li Can pouted and shook his head. "The sequence is wrong. She was first electrocuted, then strangled to death, then strengthened."
"After work resumes this year, Tovia Company has a place for her to study in Australia. This is a very good opportunity. Li Yuan's mother and I are very supportive. As long as she has this resume, her future development will get better and better."
Li Weiyi played the second recording. It was the same hoarse voice of a man. Once again, he threatened Li Yuan. His words implied that Li Yuan should give up the opportunity to study abroad. This time, the tone of the threat was even harsher.
"Who are you? Why are you threatening me?"
Han Bin understood and followed Li Can out of the office. "Medical Examiner Li, are the autopsy results out?"
Han Bin pushed the door open and entered the office.
"My surname is Han. I'm the team leader of the city's second criminal investigation team. Li Yuan's case is under our team's responsibility."
Han Bin flipped open his laptop and began to ask, "Is your daughter living with you?"
Li Yuan said, "You can't compete with me, so you use such despicable methods. Is there any meaning to it? Even if I really give up, you're still a loser. "
"Li Yuan also wants to go abroad to see the world. She worked hard to fight for this spot. After three rounds of competition, she finally got this spot. Now she's applying for a visa and is about to study abroad. Who knew that something would happen at this juncture."
"Yes, after my daughter told me about this, I told her that if the other party called again, she should record the conversation. She was very obedient and did as I said. She even sent the recording to me. "Li Weiyi took out his phone and played a recording of the conversation.
Han Bin's expression was solemn. "This murderer might be more ruthless than we thought!"
Knock knock … At this moment, the office door rang.
"I know who you are. Your actions will make me despise you even more. I have to work harder to fight for this spot because you're not my match. We both know that from the moment you made the threatening call, you've already lost."
"Dongcheng District, Building 1, Room 704."
"Actually, after Li Yuan passed the first round of competition, she received a threatening call, but she was very brave. She didn't back down. She still worked hard. The person who threatened her kept calling, forcing Li Yuan to give up the opportunity to study abroad. She was under a lot of pressure. "
"Did you record it?"
Li Yuan's mother continued, "My daughter has a black leather backpack. She often carries it when she goes out. It's not big, but it's very convenient."
"What clues? Tell us. Maybe we can help," Li Weiyi said hurriedly.
"Did you call the police?"
"Yes, this company's benefits are very good. Even new employees have an annual salary of 300,000. Those graduates are fighting to join. How could she bear to leave?" Li Weiyi said.
Li Weiyi recalled for a moment. "I asked her at that time if she knew who made the call. At first, she said she didn't know either because the person who made the threatening call had a strange voice. It didn't sound like someone she was familiar with. But when the person made the third threatening call, my daughter guessed the identity of the person. "
"Officer Han, have you found the murderer who killed my daughter?" Li Yuan's mother asked.
Li Yuan's mother slapped her forehead. "I only met him once. Xiao Yuan told me his name, but I can't remember it right now."
"When she was in her third year, there was a guy who chased after her. He really liked her and chased after her for a long time. I met him once. He was a very ordinary person. I felt that the two of them weren't suitable for each other, so I broke them up. Since then, my daughter has been single. "
Li Qin asked, "Has Li Yuan ever been in a relationship before?"
According to common sense, the murderer clearly had the opportunity to do something to the victim after she fainted.
Han Bin hesitated for a moment before returning to his seat. He waved his hand at Li Yuan's parents. "Sit down and talk."
"Not yet."
Bao Xing walked over with two cups of coffee and handed one to Han Bin. "Team Leader, who do you think is more to blame tonight? Yellow Hair or Chen Yu?"
"My daughter graduated from a 985 university and then entered a foreign company called Tovia. My daughter is very studious and hardworking. In the first month after she became a permanent employee, she received the Most Advanced Employee Award."
"She is our daughter, our baby. Who would be so cruel to actually …" Li Yuan's mother was heartbroken.
"Same here." Li Can handed the autopsy report to Han Bin and stretched. "Alright, I'm done with work. I can finally go to sleep."
"What wrong decision? I don't know what you're referring to. "A woman's voice sounded from the phone. It was most likely Li Yuan's.
"Three times. The first time was when she passed the first round of competition. The second time was when she passed the second round of competition. The third time was when she was about to enter the third round of competition. This person said a lot of threatening words and even attacked my daughter. It's too despicable."
Li Weiyi sighed. "No, my daughter is renting a house by herself. It's not far from the stadium. She's a positive and optimistic person. She likes sports like swimming, badminton, and running. She even participated in a marathon last year. She's really outstanding. Her life has just begun. She shouldn't leave so early."
"I know."
Han Bin felt that the murderer either had some kind of special hobby or had some kind of obsession with the victims.
"Please come in."
Han Bin, Li Qin, and Bao Xing were in charge of taking the statements of the victims' families.
Han Bin twirled his fingers. "It's the other way around."
After the murderer killed someone, he still did such a terrible thing.
Li Yuan's mother cried. "I've said it before. She's still young and shouldn't go out to live alone. If you had stood on my side back then, this wouldn't have happened."
Han Bin gestured for them to sit down. "Please have a seat."
"Do you still remember the names of these two people? Or any other information that can confirm their identities? "
Li Weiyi explained, "My daughter was about to enter the third round of competition. As long as she won this round of competition, she would be able to obtain a place to study abroad. My daughter was very confident about this round of competition. If the police went to Tovia's company to investigate, it would very likely cause unnecessary trouble. At that time, we weren't sure if it would have a negative impact on our daughter's future, so we rejected the police's suggestion. "
"Does Li Yuan have any problems in terms of relationships?"
Li Weiyi answered, "Her boyfriend in her first year of university is called Lu Junjie. He looks quite spirited and he's also from their school. I don't remember anything else."
Han Bin lit a cigarette and leaned against the window sill to look outside. The weather was pretty good that day. The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. There were no cars on the road, and it was less noisy than during the day.
"Police comrade, have you found the murderer?"
"No, I'm not threatening you. I'm protecting you. Do you understand?"
Li Qin said. "Li Yuan isn't young anymore and she's pretty. There should be a lot of people chasing after her."
After that, the recording ended.
Han Bin made a note in his notebook. "Do you know that Li Yuan went swimming at the stadium?"
After a while, Li Qin's phone rang. She stood up and said, "Leader, it's a call from Li Yuan's mother. I think she might have arrived. I'll go pick it up."
"We haven't found the murderer yet, but we have some new clues," Han Bin said.
Li Yuan's parents were silent for a moment before they shook their heads.
Han Bin concluded, "In other words, the victim was first electrocuted, then raped, and then strangled to death by the murderer with a belt."
Moreover, these two groups of people did not look like they were working the night shift. Both parties had drunk alcohol and had a verbal conflict. It was very easy for something to happen.
"You've worked hard."
Han Bin glanced at the clock on the wall. It was already past two in the morning.
"Do you have any contact information?"
