The victim of Zhu Weichao's bathtub murder case was named Lin Qiuyun. She was thirty-four when she died and worked at a food company.
Her family consisted of parents, husband, daughter, and sister.
Han Bin carefully looked through the dossier of the bathtub murder case.
Back then, the investigation had focused on the surveillance cameras. Zhu Weichao had been wearing a hat when he committed the crime and had kept his head down wherever there were cameras. He had been quite careful.
However, the police had looked through a lot of surveillance cameras and found some of his characteristics, such as his body size, the color of his hat, the gray backpack, and the time of the crime.
From the surveillance cameras of the victim's neighborhood to the street stores, as well as the Skynet, they had investigated bit by bit and finally locked onto a few major suspects, and Zhu Weichao was one of them.
The murderer had left DNA at the crime scene, and after comparison, it matched Zhu Weichao's DNA.
After Zhu Weichao had been arrested, he had refused to confess at first. After a few days of interrogation, he had finally confessed. He had admitted that he had killed Lin Qiuyun and described the process of the murder, which matched the evidence the police had found.
However, Zhu Weichao had never revealed his accomplice.
The case had been classified as a home invasion robbery and violent murder case, so it had not been considered as a hired killer.
The nature of the two murders was different, and the direction of the investigation was also different.
If it had been a simple home invasion robbery and violent murder case, the previous investigation method would have been correct.
These kinds of cases were more random. Many of them were crimes committed on the move, and the investigation usually started with evidence.
However, a hired killer was different. It was a targeted murder.
To put it bluntly, it was a crime committed by an acquaintance.
There had to be some kind of entanglement between them, be it love or hate, or for personal gain.
The direction of the investigation was mainly based on the relationship of the victim.
Because strangers had no grudges against each other, it was impossible for them to hire someone to kill. Even if Lin Qiuyun died, it would not benefit the employer.
Lin Qiuyun's daughter was not of age yet, so she was temporarily excluded.
After some consideration, Han Bin decided to contact Lin Qiuyun's husband first to understand the situation.
Lin Qiuyun's husband was called Cheng Jiwen, and his contact information was in the dossier.
However, it had been more than two years since the crime, and no one could guarantee that he had not changed his contact information.
After a while, the phone was connected, and Han Bin went straight to the point. "Hello, is this Mr. Cheng Jiwen?"
A man's voice came from the phone, "It's me, who are you?"
"I'm Han Bin from the Criminal Investigation Brigade of Qingdao City. I want to know something from you."
The other end was silent for a moment. "Are you a policeman?"
"Yes, I'm from the Public Security Bureau.
There was some doubt in the man's voice. "Why are you looking for me? I don't have any dealings with the police."
"I want to know about Lin Qiuyun's case."
"We have Lin's Lin's case" The person said. the phone. the man. Lin Lin. said "Dong"
Han Bin explained, "Regarding this case, we have discovered some new information. The murderer might have an accomplice. We are now reinvestigating the case, hoping to catch all the murderers in one fell swoop. "
"Lin Lin's Dong. man" "Li Lin Lin Zhou s Case." She "
"Dong. asked.". "If" in, I Bin Zhu She, "was" Police. "
"Lin Hua" Chen "Li" was "Bin" was "Lin Wang." Du "Fang" Han Bin "
"If you don't believe me, you can come to the Second Squadron of the Criminal Investigation Brigade. My name is Han Bin."
Cheng Jiwen questioned, "How could there be another murderer? Wasn't the case closed that year?"
"There are some things I can't say on the phone. It's easier to talk face to face," Han Bin said.
"Okay, I'll go. Call this number when I get to the Public Security Bureau?"
"Yes, where are you now? When will you be here?"
"I'm not far from here. I'll be there as soon as possible." Cheng Jiwen hung up.
Han Bin put away his phone and said to the other team members, "We're lucky. Cheng Jiwen hasn't changed his number."
Li Qin asked, "Leader, do we still need to contact Lin Qiuyun's parents?"
"I'll leave it to you," Han Bin said.
Sometimes it was difficult to communicate with older people, and Han Bin didn't want to waste too much energy on this matter.
Forty minutes later, Cheng Jiwen arrived at the Public Security Bureau, and Han Bin told him the location of the office.
A few minutes later, a man in his thirties knocked on the door and walked in. The man was wearing glasses, a striped T-shirt, and a pair of dark pants.
"Excuse me, who is Officer Han?"
Han Bin recognized the man's voice. He stood up and said, "I'm Han Bin. You must be Mr. Cheng Jiwen."
The man nodded. "That's me."
"Please have a seat." Han Bin gestured for him to sit.
Cheng Jiwen looked a little reserved. He looked around the office before sitting on the chair and wringing his hands together.
Han Bin felt that he was a little nervous, so he said, "Mr. Cheng, don't be nervous. We're just looking for you to understand the situation."
Cheng Jiwen bit his lip. "As soon as I arrived at the Public Security Bureau, I had an indescribable feeling in my heart. I couldn't help but think of my wife. This feeling … isn't very good."
Han Bin asked subconsciously, "Are you remarried?"
Cheng Jiwen shook his head and said, "No, remarriage and family are more tiring. It's not as easy as being alone. Also, my wife's tragic death made me not want to start a family again."
"How is your relationship with Lin Qiuyun?"
"Very good. I love my wife very much. I planned to spend the rest of my life with her. I really didn't expect …" Cheng Jiwen looked sad. "I didn't take good care of her."
"Where were you when Lin Qiuyun was killed?" Han Bin asked.
"It was a weekend. I took my daughter back to my hometown to visit my parents. I …" Cheng Jiwen suddenly paused. He looked at Han Bin and said, "Officer Han, why are you suddenly asking about this? You're not suspecting me, are you?"
Han Bin explained, "No, don't misunderstand. I just want to know more about Lin Qiuyun's case."
Cheng Jiwen said, "After the case, the police have already made a statement for me. It should be in the file."
"I said on the phone before that we found some new clues, so we need to understand the case from a different angle," Han Bin said.
Cheng Jiwen sighed. "What is the new situation? Can you tell me? The police had already told me clearly that the case was closed. Now, they say that there are new clues. As the victim's family, I really can't accept it."
Han Bin hesitated for a moment and decided to tell him about the situation.
First, he could understand Cheng Jiwen's current feelings. He must be confused when he suddenly received this call. Moreover, the case back then was not a good memory for him. Anyone would feel conflicted about it.
Second, trust and communication were mutual. If Han Bin wanted to know more about the situation from the other party, he had to tell him something.
Han Bin asked, "Do you know about Zhu Weichao's jailbreak?"
Cheng Jiwen's eyes were red as he complained, "You should have killed him a long time ago. What's the point of keeping this kind of devil alive? Now that he's escaped, the police are looking for him all over the world and I don't even know …"
Han Bin said, "Zhu Weichao is dead."
Cheng Jiwen was stunned for a moment and repeated, "Dead? You mean my wife's murderer is dead? "
"Yes."
Cheng Jiwen laughed. "Serves him right. This kind of person should have died a long time ago. How did he die? Was he shot by the police?"
"When the police found him, he was already dead. He was buried alive," Han Bin said.
Cheng Jiwen gritted his teeth and said, "He was buried well. This kind of person should be buried alive and let him die slowly in despair."
"Which hero killed him? I want to thank him. Our whole family wants to thank him!"
Han Bin frowned slightly. "We are also tracking down the murderer who killed Zhu Weichao."
"Murderer?" Cheng Jiwen shook his head and revealed a strange look. "No, he's a hero! I hope you can't find him, ever. "
"I can understand how you feel. But he also killed someone and broke the law, "Han Bin said.
Cheng Jiwen said disdainfully, "So what? I only know that he avenged my wife. I want to thank him for getting rid of an evil for the people."
Han Bin was a little embarrassed. He could hear the dissatisfaction in Cheng Jiwen's words.
Cheng Jiwen continued, "You didn't ask me to come here because you want me to help you catch Zhu Weichao's murderer, did you?"
Han Bin did not hide anything. "Yes, we are indeed tracking down the murderer who killed Zhu Weichao."
Cheng Jiwen stood up and said coldly, "If that's the case, I have nothing to say!"
Han Bin advised, "Mr. Cheng, don't be anxious. Let me finish."
Cheng Jiwen showed a look of mockery. "In my opinion, there's nothing more to say."
Cheng Jiwen turned around and walked out. He stopped and said, "Officer Han, I still want to thank you for telling me this good news!"
"Thank you."
