murder with love

Chapter 7 Investigation
The name of the defendant was Luo Yihai. He killed the well-known writer Gao Lixin, causing an uproar on the Internet.

The day after the murder, he voluntarily surrendered himself to the police station and confessed to the crime.

Whether it is the evidence at the scene or the testimony of the witnesses, it is clear that he is the murderer.

Due to the extremely bad social impact of the case, the people's requests for the death penalty have been increasing one after another. Even if he voluntarily surrendered, his sentence could not be reduced.

When a situation that is considered reasonable appears, people will be biased towards the established facts.

This is the blind spot of life.

Song Jingchen wrote down the information of his own investigation in his notebook, racking his brains to deduce the cause and effect of the development of the case.

"Investigating that writer's murder case?" Xu Yisheng asked from the side, she knew the truth, but the chat always had to start.

"En." Song Jingchen responded in a low voice.

"What did you find out?" Xu Yisheng asked with a smile.

Song Jingchen turned to look at him: "It's a secret, it's inconvenient to reveal it."

Xu Yisheng smiled, with a look that he expected a long time ago: "I knew you would say that."

"So what do you want?" Song Jingchen felt that she should have a bargaining chip in her hand.

Xu Yisheng bent his lips and said, "I have also investigated some clues, and I don't know if they will overlap with you, but I'm more curious if there will be more clues for you."

Song Jingchen said without talking nonsense: "Then you are welcome to reason with me."

Xu Yisheng took a sip of boiled water at just the right temperature, heaved a sigh of relief, and joined the battle.

"Tell me first what you have investigated?" Xu Yisheng said.

Song Jingchen didn't want to waste time with her on who had any clues, so he directly picked up a black marker and began to sort out the clues he had investigated.

He first circled the name of the defendant: "The defendant, Luo Yihai, went to the home of the deceased Gao Lixin at around 12:4 p.m. Gao Lixin’s abdomen was kept until he died, and then he immediately closed the door and left the scene.”

Xu Yisheng agreed, which was consistent with the situation she investigated.

"Luo Yihai's family lives in the old city area in the north of the city, so he went to Gao Lixin's house specifically to murder him." Xu Yisheng said his deduction.

"Well, yes, that's what he said in his confession." Song Jingchen nodded.

"Where is the doubt?" Xu Yisheng asked him.

"Why do you say that?" Song Jingchen was surprised by Xu Yisheng's keen observation.

"If this case is 100% determined to be a murder case, why would the smart student Song still think hard here?" Xu Yisheng said with a smile.

Song Jingchen pursed his lips and smiled: "As expected, nothing can be hidden from classmate Xu's eyes."

Xu Yisheng picked up his black pen and wrote in Song Jingchen's notebook, saying: "Luo Yihai, a magazine writer, and the deceased were college alumni. The two of them once chased the same woman, but they were chased by Gao Lixin. , but Gao Lixin didn't cherish that woman, and got divorced after a year of marriage, while Luo Yihai was disappointed in both love and career."

"How to say?" Song Jingchen asked.

Xu Yisheng continued: "Gao Lixin won the Literary Newcomer Award for his first work, and he became famous for a while, and he was unparalleled in the limelight. In contrast, Luo Yihai did very poorly, and he did not have a stable income. , can only rely on submitting articles to magazines in exchange for low remuneration."

Song Jingchen saw the clue written by Xu Yisheng, and said his own deduction: "So the relationship between Luo Yihai and Gao Lixin is not as simple as the debt problem that Luo Yihai unilaterally said."

"Yes." Xu Yisheng agreed.

After calling the police, Luo Yihai stated that the reason for the murder was that he owed Gao Lixin a huge debt and was forced to repay the debt. In the end, he could not bear the pressure and killed Gao Lixin.

"A few years ago, there was news on the Internet that Gao Lixin plagiarized other people's works..." Song Jingchen said.

"So you suspect that Gao Lixin actually copied Luo Yihai, and Luo Yihai murdered him for revenge?" Xu Yisheng said his speculation.

"Yes." Song Jingchen nodded, "But this is just a guess."

"What you said is not unreasonable, and the possibility cannot be ruled out." Xu Yisheng nodded.

"But there is a lack of evidence to prove it." Song Jingchen said.

"Are you free this weekend?" Xu Yisheng smiled.

"So you plan to invite me to investigate the case together?" Song Jingchen guessed what she meant.

"Well, what do Song students think of the suggestion?" Xu Yisheng asked with a smile.

"It's acceptable, I'm free anyway." Song Jingchen said.

Xu Yisheng frowned: "You don't have homework?"

Song Jingchen smiled: "I can solve the puzzle game without difficulty in ten minutes."

"Ten minutes?!" Xu Yisheng was surprised, "You are an alien!"

"You can't say I'm a genius? Aliens are so ugly!" Song Jingchen muttered.

Xu Yisheng burst out laughing.

The weekend came in a blink of an eye, and the two met as agreed and went to investigate together. At that time, they were young and had no fear of anything.

Thinking about it now, I am a little scared. How could they have such courage at that time?
The first thing they came to was the scene of the crime, which was cordoned off with a yellow line. Because the scene was guarded, Song Jingchen and Xu Yisheng couldn't get close. Song Jingchen suggested to go to the area where Luo Yihai lived to inquire about news.

In his words, to investigate a case, one must first understand the situation of the parties involved.

The two of them took the subway to the north of the city and found Luo Yihai's residence. There are quite a lot of neighbors around, and it seems that there is still hope for something to be investigated.

"Which identity will it be more convenient for us to appear later?" Song Jingchen asked Xu Yisheng for his opinion.

Xu Yisheng rolled his eyes and thought of an idea: "Why don't we pretend to be Luo Yihai's cousin?"

"Luo Yihai is a murderer now, don't we pretend to be this identity to be beaten to death?"

Xu Yisheng touched his chin in agreement: "What you said makes sense, so what should we do now?"

"Just pretend to be a volunteer who distributes pet cat and dog management leaflets..." Song Jingchen said his idea.

"But where did the leaflets come from?" Xu Yisheng asked.

Song Jingchen opened his backpack, revealing a large stack of pink paper: "No! Here it is."

Xu Yisheng was startled, this person who dared to love had already prepared for it!Then ask yourself what's your idea!
"When did you prepare?" Xu Yisheng couldn't help being curious.

"Last night." Song Jingchen said while digging out a stack of pink paper from his backpack and putting it in Xu Yisheng's hand.

"Stop thinking about it, work quickly! In short, we will meet here in an hour and then integrate the clues."

"Well, okay." Xu Yisheng took the stack of fliers that didn't attract much attention.

"Call me immediately if there is any danger." Song Jingchen took out a mobile phone from his pocket, entered his number, and stuffed it into Xu Yisheng's hand.

"What about you?" Xu Yisheng asked.

Song Jingchen immediately took out another mobile phone from his pocket and said, "Your phone is just my old model, so you can make do with it."

"..." Xu Yisheng's eyebrows trembled, and he was extremely shocked!I thought to myself, did you plan this way a long time ago?
　Comrades!Who gave you the courage to conduct such an investigation? !
　　Children, don't learn from them!
