The next morning.
In the conference room of the Municipal Criminal Investigation Unit.
In order to save time, Han Bin held a breakfast meeting.
As the name suggested, they could eat breakfast during the meeting.
This was also Han Bin's first attempt, mainly to save time.
Criminal investigation work often required overtime. Last night, it was already past eleven when Han Bin got home. By the time he finished washing up, it was already twelve in the morning. He would definitely wake up later the next morning.
The Criminal Investigation Unit basically had a meeting every day. If they could save some time every day, it would add up to a considerable amount.
Of course, it was still in the trial stage, and it was not certain whether it would succeed or not. If it succeeded, it would continue to be implemented. If not, it would be terminated. The scope was limited to Second Squadron.
As for the standard of success, it mainly depended on the efficiency of the meeting. If it affected the efficiency of the meeting, it would be terminated immediately.
In order to lead the way, Han Bin also brought breakfast: a bag of milk, a stone cake, and a big meat roll. Han Bin ordered a pork knuckle, and took a bite of it. It was delicious.
Han Bin put the breakfast on the table and went straight to the point. "Everyone, summarize the progress of the case. I won't mention names. Whoever has something, just say it."
Zhu Jiaxu wasn't used to having breakfast meetings, so he didn't bring anything to eat. He only took a cup of coffee and cleared his throat. "Then I'll go first."
"Yesterday, I went to Mount Wuhua and asked a lot of pedestrians and residents who lived nearby. I have a more detailed understanding of the situation there. Mount Wuhua is relatively close to Qingdao City, and the mountain is relatively flat. Many residents go there to exercise and play. "
"According to the residents near Mount Wuhua, there were several groups of people climbing the mountain on the afternoon of November 30th. There may indeed be witnesses, but they haven't been found yet. At the same time, I checked the nearby surveillance video and am going to use the car to find the person. "
Previously, Han Bin had people collect the surveillance video near Mount Wuhua, but those videos were far from the crime scene and couldn't be used as direct evidence. However, some surveillance video at the intersection might be able to capture some passing vehicles, and some of them might have been to Mount Wuhua.
"Okay, continue to investigate in this direction. Don't limit the suspect to Lou Hexiang. If you find other suspicious vehicles, include them in the investigation."
Zhu Jiaxu responded. "Got it."
Han Bin glanced at everyone. "Is there anything new about the others?"
No one responded.
After a while, Han Bin said, "Then I'll arrange today's task. Team Leader Zhu is still in charge of the investigation in Mount Wuhua. Wang Xiao went to check Cen Yunna's alibi. Li Qin, you're in charge of investigating Cen Yunna's phone calls. "
"Yes." Everyone split up.
…
After the meeting, Han Bin finished his breakfast. He tidied up and prepared to report to Ding Xifeng's office.
As soon as he walked out of the conference room, Huang Qianqian hurriedly walked over. "Captain Han, the suspect in custody, Lou Yuenan, wants to see you."
"What does she want?"
"She wants to turn herself in."
…
A few minutes later, Han Bin brought Bao Xing to the interrogation room.
Lou Yuenan sat on the interrogation chair, looking a little haggard.
Han Bin went straight to the point. "Lou Yuenan, you want to turn yourself in."
Lou Yuenan hesitated for a moment. "Yes."
Han Bin asked, "What crime did you commit?"
"I want to see my son. When I see him, I'll confess truthfully."
Han Bin did not refuse, nor did he agree. He said tactfully, "You and your son are both prisoners. It's not up to me to let the two of you meet. I need to apply to the higher-ups. As long as you're willing to cooperate with the police investigation, I'll try my best to fulfill your wish and let the two of you meet as soon as possible. "
Lou Yuenan said, "You're not lying to me, are you?"
"There's no need for me to lie to you."
"Alright then, I admit it."
"Admit what? Speak clearly. "
Lou Yuenan took a deep breath and gritted her teeth. "I admit that I killed Dong Yubei."
"Why did you kill her?"
"Officer Han, don't you think that a woman like her deserves to die? She's been playing with my son and treating him like a fool. She broke up with my son a few months ago and now she's back to find him, saying that she's pregnant. Do you think that's possible? "
"You think that the child in Dong Yubei's stomach isn't your son's?"
"I'm a woman, and I understand women better. Women have sex every month. If they're really pregnant, they'll know after one or two months. If they want this child, they'll naturally protect it well. If they don't want this child, they'll abort it as soon as possible. How could it be delayed until the fourth month? "Lou Yuenan snorted lightly and continued.
"Let's say that Lou Yuenan confirmed that she was pregnant in the second month, but she didn't look for my son at that time. Instead, she waited two months before looking for my son. Do you think that's possible?"
Han Bin said, "Is that why you killed her?"
"Isn't that enough? She just wanted to cheat my son of his money. "
"Where did you kill her?"
"Mount Wuhua."
"What tool did you use to kill her?"
Lou Yuenan sighed. "She's dead, and I've already admitted it. Why are you still asking? I'm not a murderer, and I don't want to relive it again."
"The police won't let a bad person off, nor will they wrongly accuse a good person. To convict a criminal, we need to investigate the details of the suspect's crime. I hope you can cooperate."
Lou Yuenan revealed a fierce look. "I stabbed her to death with a knife."
"Where did you stab her?"
Lou Yuenan thought for a moment. "It's this chest area. I was too nervous at that time, so I didn't remember the specific location. I just randomly stabbed her. When I saw that she was bleeding a lot, I was scared out of my wits and quickly ran away."
Han Bin frowned. Dong Yubei did die from excessive blood loss, but she wasn't stabbed to death. Instead, the back of her head hit a sharp stone. There was no knife wound on Dong Yubei's chest at all.
In addition, Dong Yubei wasn't wearing any clothes after she died. It was very likely that she was raped before she died, and her clothes were also hidden by the suspect. It didn't match Lou Yuenan's description.
Han Bin asked, "Where did you kill Dong Yubei?"
"Mount Wuhua?"
"I'm asking about the specific location. The top or the foot of the mountain? "
Lou Yuenan rubbed her cheeks with her hands. "I was scared. Let me think … I think it was near the foot of the mountain."
"Where's the knife? Where did you put the knife that you used to kill Dong Yubei?"
"I threw it away."
"Where did you throw it?"
"It was my first time killing someone, and I was too nervous. I just threw the knife away. I really can't remember. "
"How did you get to Mount Wuhua?"
"I took a taxi."
"What's the license plate number?"
"I can't remember."
"How did you pay?"
"I paid in cash."
"How did you know that your son was going to Mount Wuhua to meet Dong Yubei?"
"My son asked me for money, but I didn't give it to him. So, I was more cautious and followed him to Mount Wuhua."
Han Bin said, "But according to your son, he didn't ask you for money before he went to Mount Wuhua."
Lou Yuenan's eyes flickered. "Officer Han, how can you believe my son's words? He doesn't even have a job. If he didn't ask me for money, who else could he ask for money from?"
"Are you sure you killed Dong Yubei with a knife?"
"Yes."
"Did you move the body?"
"No."
"Did you take off the clothes on the body?"
"I was scared to death. How could I care about that? Besides, I'm not a pervert." When Lou Yuenan said this, she couldn't help but ask, "Officer Han, why are you asking this?"
"Alright, we understand your situation. We'll verify it further."
Lou Yuenan shouted, "What's there to verify? I've already said that I'm the murderer."
Han Bin said, "Do you have anything else to say?"
"Nothing."
Han Bin tidied up the materials on the table. "Let's end today's interrogation here."
Seeing that Han Bin was about to get up and leave, Lou Yuenan quickly stopped him. "Wait … When can I see my son?"
"Wait for the news. I'll apply to the higher-ups as soon as possible."
