In the office of the second squad of the city's criminal investigation unit.
Ma Jingbo, Han Bin, and the others returned to the office one after another.
Ma Jingbo glanced at the clock on the wall. It was already three in the morning.
"Everyone put down what you're doing and sit down. Let's have a meeting."
After everyone sat down, Ma Jingbo continued, "Let me first talk about the medical examiner's situation. The male victim's name is Ma Jinlu. The time of death was between 9: 30 and 11: 30 last night. He died of excessive blood loss. The victim was stabbed seven times, and each of the stab wounds was very deep. I think he intended to kill the victim."
If the suspect really only wanted to steal and rape, without leaving any clear evidence, he only needed to scare the victim away with a knife or cut him to escape. The wounds for the two must be different.
Ma Jingbo's thoughts coincided with Han Bin's.
Ma Jingbo flipped through the information and glanced at it. "Ma Jinlu is 21 years old this year, and he's a student at the Qindao Business School. He lives out of town, and I've already informed his family."
"The female victim, Ren Lingling, and Ma Jinlu are a couple. Han Bin, you took Ren Lingling's statement. Tell me the details."
Han Bin cleared his throat. "Ren Lingling is also a student at the Qindao Business School. She and Ma Jinlu rented a house outside, which was the scene of the crime. According to her, Ma Jinlu had something to do that night, so he came back late. She didn't leave the door open for the suspect, so the suspect probably went in through the window. "
"The suspect was wearing stockings on her head, and we couldn't see her face clearly. She was probably about 180 centimeters tall, and then she was knocked out by the suspect. She didn't see the scene when Ma Jinlu was killed."
"The suspect probably arrived at the scene at 10: 30. Ren Lingling woke up at 11: 30, saw her boyfriend's dead body, and called the police."
Jiang Yang smacked his lips. "Students these days really have money to burn. They don't live in school, but they have to rent a house."
Ma Jingbo said, "They're young, so it's understandable."
"From the crime scene, this case is more complicated. Theft, rape, and murder are all possible motives, but from the wounds on the male victim, I'm more inclined to the latter."
Huang Qianqian asked, "Captain Ma, could it be that the suspect was in the middle of committing the crime, and Ma Jinlu happened to come back? The suspect was afraid that the news would be leaked, so he killed Ma Jinlu."
Ma Jingbo replied, "If it was really a murder to silence someone, then the female victim was also at the scene. Logically speaking, she could have been silenced as well. But only the male victims were killed, so I'm more inclined to the latter. "
"We can investigate the male victim's surrounding relationships to see who he had conflicts or conflicts of interest with when he was alive."
Ma Jingbo yawned. "I'll arrange a mission. Wang Xiao and Jiang Yang will go to the Qindao Business School to investigate Ma Jinlu's connections."
"Han Bin and Bao Xing will go to the vicinity of the crime scene to collect surveillance footage."
"I'll stay at the Municipal Public Security Bureau to give a statement to Ma Jinlu's family."
After that, Ma Jingbo stood up and stretched. "It's getting late. Let's go to the dormitory and rest. We'll continue the investigation at dawn."
"Yes," everyone answered.
It was already past three o 'clock in the morning, and everyone had not slept a wink the entire night. They were already tired and sleepy.
The investigation of the crime scene had been completed, and statements had been made with the witnesses. So far, no major clues had been found. They would rest for the night and continue the investigation tomorrow. It would be more efficient.
Han Bin did not go to the dormitory. He took out a foldable bed and slept in the office.
He could not sleep well even if he went back to the dormitory, so he might as well sleep in the office and save time.
At eight o 'clock in the morning, Han Bin was woken up by his phone ringing. Han Bin took out his phone and saw that it was Wang Ting's number on the screen.
Han Bin pressed the answer button. "Hello."
Wang Ting asked with concern, "Are you still busy?"
Han Bin yawned. "I was busy until three o 'clock last night, so I didn't go back. I slept in the office."
"That's hard work. What do you want to eat tonight? I'll make it for you. "
Han Bin smiled. "I still have to investigate a case today. I don't know until what time I'll be busy. Let's talk about it in the afternoon."
"Okay then, rest for a while more. Don't be too tired. "
"Okay." Han Bin hung up the phone and yawned again. He had slept late, so he felt groggy and uncomfortable.
He probably would not be able to sleep again if he continued to sleep.
Han Bin washed his face and went to the cafeteria for breakfast. After eating his fill, Han Bin felt a little better.
At around nine o 'clock, Han Bin and Bao Xing drove to South Buddha Village.
Because it was near the street, there were many shops around the house. They were open during the day and empty at night.
Because it was a small street, the road was not very wide. Han Bin and Wang Ting did not drive over. They parked at a place that was not in the way and walked to the house where the crime scene was.
The house was surrounded by police tape, and the doors and windows were sealed.
The passersby would point at them from time to time.
There was a small shop, a shop that repaired mobile phones, and a duck shop around the house.
Han Bin walked to the small shop and bought a pack of cigarettes. He lit it and took a puff. "Lady boss, I want to ask you something."
"What is it?"
"Do you know the family with the seal next to it?"
The lady boss glanced at Han Bin. "Are you talking about the landlord or the person who rents the house?"
"The person who rents the house?"
The lady boss snorted. "Hmph, why would I know someone like that? Something will happen sooner or later."
"What do you mean?" Han Bin asked in return.
The proprietress pursed her lips and looked at Han Bin with a scrutinizing gaze. "This is a small store. If you want to ask about something messy, go somewhere else."
"What kind of nonsense?"
"You're still playing dumb with me? Do you really think I don't know what that family does for a living? What good can they do if they hire a man at night? Go, go, go and find out elsewhere. "
Han Bin heard between the lines and knew that the lady boss might have misunderstood. He took out his police badge. "Take a good look. I'm a police officer."
The lady boss was a little surprised. "Aiyo, comrade police officer, why didn't you say so earlier? I thought you were asking about her family just to have some fun."
Bao Xing frowned and said, "Go away. Don't talk nonsense. Just answer our captain's questions honestly."
"Actually, I don't know much. It's all guesses."
"Tell me, what do you know?"
The lady boss looked outside and whispered, "Let me put it this way. Although this isn't a main street, it's still a small one. The surrounding residents are all shopping around here. The row of shops around us is noisy and not suitable for people to live in. They sell whatever they have. If they don't, they sell people. "
The lady boss's words were vague, but Han Bin understood. "The tenant next to us sells silver?"
"That's just my guess. They usually close their doors during the day and don't interact with the people around. At around nine or ten o 'clock at night, there are strange men coming in and out. Sometimes I can even hear that kind of sound. "
"If you knew, why didn't you report it?"
"Actually, that kind of business doesn't affect my shop much. When they open for business, we close our doors and go home. Occasionally, they come back to my shop to buy something. I just pretend I don't know. It's not easy. If it's really easy, who would do something like that? "
"How many people are there in the house next door?"
"Two, a man and a woman. They don't look old, probably in their early twenties. The guy looks quite energetic, and the girl is quite pretty. It's a pity that they can't do anything. "
"Do you know what their relationship is?"
The lady boss shook her head. "I don't know, so I'm too embarrassed to ask."
"But they seem to have a good relationship. Sometimes they go in and out together during the day, holding hands and hugging each other's arms. They look like a couple. If I wasn't their neighbor and saw a lot of men going in, I wouldn't have thought that way. "
If what the lady boss said was true, then the authenticity of Ren Lingling's statement would have to be reassessed …
