The next morning.
As soon as they arrived at the Municipal Bureau, Ma Jingbo called for a meeting.
Ma Jingbo waved his hand. "Almost everyone is here. Close the door and let's start the meeting."
"Yesterday, before we got off work, we already had a summary meeting. The captain also explained very clearly about the big picture. The reason why I called for this morning meeting is that the technical department has a new clue and we need to arrange today's task. "
"Let me first talk about the investigation by the technical department. They tested the evidence found at the scene and found the DNA of the deceased on one of the wine bottles. The other bottle also had DNA, but it didn't belong to the deceased."
"The technical department also identified the shovel at the scene and found DNA on the handle of the shovel, which matched the DNA on the other wine bottle. According to the analysis of the case and the situation at the scene, it's very likely to be the murderer's DNA. "
"This evidence is very important and provides a solid basis for our next investigation."
Han Bin was also excited. For a case, the evidence to convict was the most important and the new evidence found by the technical department could be used as evidence to convict.
The two small bottles of wine were buried with the deceased's body, which meant that this person had been to the scene and drank with the deceased.
The evidence on the shovel was also very important. The shovel should have been used to bury the deceased and the evidence, which was exactly what the murderer or his gang would do.
As long as they could prove that the murderer had a motive, the evidence would be enough to convict them.
Ma Jingbo glanced at everyone. "Do you have any questions?"
Everyone was silent.
Ma Jingbo continued, "Then I'll arrange the task."
"Zhu Jiaxu, lead Team Two and continue the investigation from yesterday. Find the suspect's motorcycle as soon as possible. The captain has high hopes for this clue."
Zhu Jiaxu straightened his back and said loudly, "Yes."
"Han Bin, contact Li Dongzhi's family and ask them to come to the police station to make a statement as soon as possible."
"As for Wang Lifei's family, I'll do the statement myself."
"Yes."
Ma Jingbo closed his notebook and said, "Does anyone have any questions? No problem. Meeting adjourned. Investigate whatever needs to be investigated. "
Han Bin returned to the office with his men.
Wang Xiao and Jiang Yang were left behind by Ma Jingbo.
Li Qin was in charge of contacting Li Dongzhi's father and sister.
Han Bin lit a cigarette and checked the city's news.
Han Bin would only read the beginning of most of the news. He would only click on the news that was related to work or that he was interested in.
Li Qin hung up the phone and walked over. "Team Leader, I've contacted Li Dongzhi's sister. According to her, because of Li Dongzhi's prison break, her father fell sick and is currently recuperating in bed. He can't come to the police station for the time being. Because she had to take care of her father, she couldn't leave for the time being. She said that she would come to the police station to make a statement after her father got better. "
Bao Xing yawned. "Let's wait for a few more days. It'll be too late."
Han Bin pinched his forehead. "Ask for the specific address, and then we'll go to his house to make a statement."
"Yes."
…
Qindao City, South City District.
Liquefied gas dormitory.
This was an old neighborhood. The neighborhood was not big, and there was only one building. It used to be the LPG company's employee dormitory.
Later on, he paid a part of the money and the house became his.
Most of the houses here were small two-bedroom apartments of 70 square meters. They had five floors and no elevators.
For an old-fashioned neighborhood like this, if elevators could be installed, the price of houses with three floors and above would increase a lot.
However, the installation of elevators required the consent of all the residents in the corridor. Generally speaking, the installation of elevators would affect the lighting, so the first and second floors generally wouldn't agree.
Especially the residents on the first floor, if they didn't get enough compensation, they definitely wouldn't allow an elevator in front of their door. It wouldn't do them any good.
As for who would pay the compensation for the first and second floors, the developer couldn't find it. The LPG company also went bankrupt, so it could only be paid by the residents on the upper floors.
This was a very practical problem. Although the price of the upper floors would increase after the installation of elevators, the residents on the upper floors were still unwilling to pay part of the money to compensate the residents on the lower floors.
A black SUV drove into the neighborhood, and Han Bin, Li Qin, and Bao Xing got out of the car.
Han Bin habitually observed the neighborhood, but he didn't see any obvious surveillance cameras, and there were no guards at the door.
Li Qin said, "Li Dongzhi's father lives in Unit 2, Room 102."
Bao Xing pointed to the unit in front, "Unit 2 is the one in the middle."
The group entered Unit 2. There were a few old bicycles at the bottom of the stairs, already covered in dust. One of the bicycles even had a broken chain, so it was unknown whether it could be ridden or not.
"Dong, dong, dong." Li Qin knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" A woman's voice came from inside the house.
"I'm Li Qin from the city's Criminal Investigation Unit. I've contacted you before."
"Creak …" The door opened, and a woman in her thirties stood at the door. She carefully looked at Li Qin, then at Han Bin and Bao Xing.
Han Bin greeted, "Hello, are you Ms. Li Dongmei?"
"That's me."
"I'm Han Bin, the team leader of the city's Criminal Investigation Unit. I'm also the person in charge of this case. I'd like to give you and your father a statement."
Li Dongmei nodded and moved aside. "Come in."
The living room of the house was not big, and it was filled to the brim. It looked a little messy, and there was a strange smell in the house. It smelled like mold, and also like urine.
Li Dongmei said, "My father lives alone in this house. He's old and doesn't want to clean up the house. He can't bear to throw away some things, so the house is a little messy."
"You don't live here?"
"Yes, I live with my husband, son, and daughter. I also have to work, so I'm just busy."
Han Bin nodded. It was indeed not easy to have two children and take care of the elderly.
"Where does Li Dongzhi live?"
"He lives in the west room, and my dad lives in the east room. However, he's not a diligent person. In the past, he didn't clean up the house when he wasn't married. I had to come and help him when I was resting."
"Li Dongzhi has always been single?"
"He's never married. He has had girlfriends, but they didn't last long, so I don't care …"
Just then, a voice came from the east room. "Who's outside?"
"Dad, the comrades from the Criminal Investigation Unit are here."
"Oh, please come in. I also want to talk to them. How's Dongzhi doing now?"
Li Dongmei made a welcoming gesture and led Han Bin and the other two into the east room.
As soon as they entered the room, they saw a bed. A man in his sixties was lying on the bed, and he was sitting up with the help of the bed.
Li Dongmei quickly walked a few steps forward and helped the man sit up.
Seeing that the man was about to stand up, Han Bin quickly stopped him. "Sir, you don't have to get up. Just sit down and talk."
"It's okay. I can stand up. The police are here. How can I sit down? It's impolite."
Han Bin said politely, "Sir, you don't have to be so polite. We're just here to see you and chat with you."
Politeness was politeness, but basic questions were still necessary. "Sir, what's your name?"
"My name is Li Hongshan. I used to be an employee of the Liquefied Gas Company."
Han Bin asked, "How's your health?"
Li Hongshan sighed. "Sigh, it's an old illness. I won't get better, but I won't die either. If I really die, I'll live in peace."
Li Qin advised, "Sir, don't say that. Living conditions are better now. There are many people who can live to a hundred years old. You're still young."
"I don't dare to think about it. I don't dare to think about it. My only wish is to see my son come out." Li Hong Shan's expression was somewhat desolate. He looked at Han Bin, then at Li Qin. His eyes were filled with concern.
"Police comrade, how's Dongzhi now? Is his health alright? "
Han Bin said, "He's out of danger and is undergoing treatment. You don't have to worry."
