Han Bin couldn't make out what Zhao Ming was saying, but the call for help was very clear. Of course, whether it could be heard from outside depended on the soundproofing of the cellar.
After a while, Han Bin shouted, "Alright, open the cellar door."
There was no response.
Jiang Yang raised his voice again and shouted, "Open the cellar door."
After a while, the cellar door was opened. Sunlight spilled into the cellar and the oppressive feeling was instantly dispelled.
Zhao Ming took out his mask from his mouth. "Oh my god, I'm suffocating."
Han Bin shouted at the cellar entrance, "How was it? Can you hear me?"
Li Qin answered, "I can hear Jiang Yang's voice. I think he had another voice before, but I couldn't hear it very clearly. As for the other voices, I couldn't hear them. "
"Sister Li, where were you standing just now?"
"I was standing by the wall of the house."
"Got it." Han Bin responded. Although he was standing by the wall slightly further from the cellar entrance, he had not entered the house yet. If he had stayed in the house, he might not have heard the call for help from the cellar.
It had to be said that the soundproofing of the cellar was really good.
After Han Bin came up from the cellar, he asked Tang Wenjie, "Village Chief Tang, did you hear anything?"
Tang Wenjie answered, "I was standing quite close and heard two shouts. I didn't hear the first one clearly, but the second one asked me to open the cellar door."
Han Bin nodded. "Village Chief Tang, when was Tang Wenyao's cellar dug?"
"I'm not sure about that."
"Then, before the incident, did you know that his house had a cellar?"
"I don't come to his house often, so I don't really have any impression of it." Tang Wenjie looked at Zheng Yuanchao. "Uncle Wu, you should know about it, right?"
Zheng Yuanchao said, "I know. They've been digging their cellar for a few years now. I even heard some noises during the construction. However, his cellar is usually covered, and sometimes there's something on top. If outsiders don't pay attention, they won't be able to find it. "
Han Bin showed a thoughtful look. If the murderer had already thought of a way to kill people, it meant that the murderer already knew the existence of this cellar. Tang Wenjie, a relative of the village, didn't know about it, but the murderer knew it very well. It meant that the murderer either knew this place in advance, or it was an acquaintance who committed the crime.
Han Bin chatted with Zheng Yuanchao for a while, but he didn't get any more clues, so he brought his men back to the Municipal Bureau.
At this time, it was already around six o 'clock in the evening, and it was almost time to get off work. There were people looking for Han Bin to report the situation.
Seizing the opportunity, Han Bin took out his phone and dialed Cui Shaohai's number.
Through this visit to the crime scene, Han Bin felt that Cui Shaohai was a key person. There might be other reasons for Jiang Suli's murder.
The phone rang, but no one picked up until the call was automatically hung up.
Before Han Bin could make another call, there was a knock on the door. Knock, knock.
"Come in."
The door opened, and He Yingsheng walked in from the outside. "Captain Han, I want to report to you about the situation near Changfeng District."
Han Bin pointed to the chair across from him. "Sit down and talk."
He Yingsheng sorted out his thoughts. "I analyzed that since the suspect committed the crime of stealing a car, he must have left traces in and out of Changfeng District. There are two possibilities for him to go in and out of Changfeng District. The first possibility is that he had a means of transportation, so we need to check Skynet's surveillance.
The second possibility is that the suspect entered the district on foot. If this is the case, it will be difficult for Skynet to capture the road. I have collected the surveillance of the private shops around Changfeng District. "
Han Bin asked, "Did you find anything?"
"I haven't found anything yet." He Yingsheng shook his head and continued, "Captain Han, I have been wondering if there is another possibility."
Han Bin thought for a moment and said, "You mean the suspect lived in Changfeng District and didn't need to enter or leave the district before and after committing the crime?"
"Yes, yes. You're indeed Captain Han. You're so thorough."
Han Bin thought for a moment and said, "You don't have to worry about this. I will ask the local police station to assist and investigate whether there is a criminal record of car theft in Changfeng District. You are responsible for continuing to check the surveillance of Changfeng District. "
"Yes."
"Ring ring ring …" Han Bin's phone rang.
Han Bin picked up the phone and saw that it was Cui Shaohai's number. "Hello."
"Who are you?" A man's voice came from the phone.
He Yingsheng got up to leave.
Han Bin nodded.
He Yingsheng closed the door and left the squadron leader's office.
Han Bin continued to call, "Are you Cui Shaohai?"
"That's me. Who are you?"
"My name is Han Bin. I am from the Municipal Public Security Bureau."
"Public Security Bureau. What can I do for you?"
"Do you know Jiang Suli?"
"Yes, she is my mother."
"We are reinvestigating her case."
The other end of the phone was silent for a moment. "There is a new lead in the case."
Han Bin said, "It's not convenient to talk over the phone. Come to the Municipal Public Security Bureau and we can talk face to face."
Cui Shaohai hesitated for a moment. "Tomorrow then. I will go there tomorrow morning."
"Okay. When you arrive at the Municipal Public Security Bureau, give me a call. I will send someone to pick you up downstairs." After that, Han Bin hung up.
At seven o 'clock that night, Han Bin finished summarizing the situation of the case. The work on hand was almost done, so he ran to the squadron leader's office to report.
Ding Xifeng was holding a large teapot and had just brewed a pot of tea. "You came at the right time. I just came back from a meeting. The leaders of the Municipal Public Security Bureau were talking about the Rong Yuan District case. How is the investigation going?"
"Captain, I was just about to report to you." Han Bin reported the progress of the case investigation in a concise and clear manner.
Ding Xifeng took notes as he listened. After he finished listening, he looked at the notes that he had taken down.
After a while, Ding Xifeng asked, "You suspect that the murderer of the 821 case had other motives?"
"Yes."
"Is there any evidence?"
Han Bin shook his head. "It's just my guess for the time being. However, I have invited a person involved in the case to the police station to make a statement. Maybe he can provide some new clues."
Ding Xifeng took a sip of tea and put down the teacup. "You went to the scene of the 821 case. Do you think the two cases are related? Are they committed by the same murderer? "
Han Bin pondered for a moment. "There is definitely a connection. At least it is a copycat crime. As for whether it is the same murderer, I can't be sure for the time being."
Ding Xifeng knocked on the table with his right index finger. "Then I will assume that the murderer is the same person. Then do you think the murderer will continue to kill? "
Han Bin was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Ding Xifeng to ask such a question. From the existing evidence of the case, if the murderer of the case was committed by the same person, then the purpose of his murder was likely to be to 'enforce justice on behalf of heaven.' And his so-called 'justice' was the moral standard.
The standard for killing was very low. As long as the person violated the moral standard, he could become his target.
It was only a matter of time before he killed again.
Han Bin took a deep breath. He had already taken over the case. If the murderer committed another crime, he would be under a lot of pressure …
