Chapter 79 Willow Dark Flower Bright Another Village

All suspects have alibi, and He Jiahui also needs to verify these alibi.

The easiest thing to check is the assistant Chen Weiting. He was not on the island last night, and the ferry ticket he provided was indeed for the ferry at [-] o'clock last night.

However, for the sake of caution, He Jiahui still contacted the Immigration Department to check whether Chen Weiting had gone to Macau.

"The Immigration Department just replied to the news. They found out that Chen Weiting left the Hong Kong-Macau Ferry Terminal in Sheung Wan last night, went to Macau by boat, and returned at ten o'clock this morning."

He Jiahui nodded and said, "Assistant Chen Weiting's suspicion can be ruled out. The time of death of the deceased was from [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] am, and Chen Weiting left Changzhou Island at [-]:[-] pm yesterday and just returned by boat. He has no possibility of committing the crime."

Afterwards, He Jiahui turned his head and asked Liang Bao: "Jing Bao, Cai Mulin's camera, how is the investigation?"

Liangbao said, "I have connected the camera with a data cable. There are many photos in it, and there are indeed many photos. The creation time of the photos shows that they were taken between two and four in the morning yesterday."

"What about the interval between photos?" He Jiahui continued to ask.

Liang Bao replied: "The longest interval between photos is more than 20 minutes, and the shortest is 1 minute, and all the photos taken during this period are the night scene of lights on the opposite Hong Kong Island, that is to say, his shooting location is On the northeast coast of Cheung Chau Island.

Calculated in this way, he should not have the possibility of committing a crime. From the northeast coast to the homestay, it takes more than 10 minutes to go back and forth, plus the time for committing the crime, it is not enough at all.If he were the murderer, it would be impossible to take so many pictures. "

"It seems that the suspicion of cameraman Cai Mulin can also be ruled out for the time being!" He Jiahui took a deep breath, then picked up the police cap and put it on, and then said: "Let's go visit and see if the other three people's alibi true."

Du Xiaohe immediately followed up and asked, "Where shall we go first?"

"Let's go to Aunt Xian's homestay first!" He Jiahui said.

"Wait for me, I'll go too!" Tai Shan, Du Xiaohe's licking dog, immediately followed.

……

The three of them came to Aunt Xian's homestay, and sure enough, they saw the couple who rented the homestay.

"Don't be nervous, you two, we are here to check whether Aunt Xian left last night." He Jiahui said.

Tai Shan next to him clumsily took out his small book, intending to record it.

After all, Taishan has no experience in investigating and handling criminal cases, and is still using the method taught by the police academy and the method of recording statements.

However, He Jiahui directly took out the recording pen, which is much more reliable than notebook notes.

"Why did you bring a recording pen!" Taishan suddenly felt that he was hit by dimensionality reduction again.

He Jiahui continued to ask: "You two, I heard that you played mahjong with Aunt Xian and his wife last night, can you explain in detail?"

The man in the couple said; "The outlying islands are relatively deserted at night, and there are no entertainment programs, so we came back after dark yesterday.

Being bored, I happened to see a mahjong table in the homestay, so I called Aunt Xian and the couple to play mahjong together.It was almost two o'clock when the call was made. At that time, Aunt Xian was already a little sleepy, so we went back to our rooms to sleep. "

"So you can't confirm whether Aunt Xian went out after two o'clock in the morning?" He Jiahui asked.

"I don't think she ever went out!" The man continued; "After playing mahjong and returning to the room, we didn't go to bed right away.

It was almost four o'clock in the morning when we actually went to bed!During this period, there was no movement outside. If Aunt Xian left, we should be able to hear it. "

A young couple didn't go to bed immediately after returning to their room, so He Jiahui could naturally guess what they were doing.

"From two o'clock in the morning to four o'clock in the morning, for two hours, this guy's physical fitness is pretty good." He Jiahui thought to himself.

If the young couple's narration is true, then Aunt Xian can basically rule out the suspicion.

Next, He Jiahui went to Brother Qiang's food stall, and he could prove that director Xue Chaohui was in the hospital all night.

Brother Qiang's wonton noodles are pretty good, but the quantity is a bit small. He Jiahui doesn't feel full after eating two bowls.

As soon as I came near Brother Qiang's food stall, I heard a woman's irritable voice.

"Feng Zhiqiang, did you take the money away again and went to find that vixen!"

"No, really not this time, someone stole the money. The locks on the drawers were picked, it's not like you didn't see it." A man said.

"Who knows if you are a thief calling for a thief, prying open the drawer on purpose to get the money away!"

The man and the woman were obviously arguing, so He Jiahui asked: "It seems that the relationship between Brother Qiang and Sister-in-law Qiang is not very good!"

Du Xiaohe replied: "It's not the first time they have quarreled. The couple have been married for more than ten years and have been arguing for more than ten years. The neighbors in the neighborhood have long been used to it."

He Jiahui and others followed the sound and saw Brother Qiang and his wife, Sister-in-law Qiang, arguing.

When Brother Qiang saw He Jiahui, he immediately said, "Sir is here, just in time, I want to report to the police, the money I put in the drawer was stolen!"

Sister-in-law Qiang said, "Don't listen to his nonsense, he's clearly taking the money to find some vixen! Sir, arrest him quickly, have a good interrogation, and let him confess to the vixen!"

"Brother Qiang, sister-in-law Qiang, one of you wants to report the crime to me, and the other wants to arrest someone, which makes me confused. What happened?" He Jiahui asked.

Brother Qiang immediately explained: "Sir, it's like this. I went to the hospital yesterday because of food poisoning. When I came back this morning, I found that the lock on the drawer had been picked, and the money I put in the drawer had also been stolen. But my wife insisted that I took the money and went to another woman."

"Sir, he just used money to find other women! And it's not the first time he's done this. Every time he doesn't come home at night, he must be looking for a good friend!" Sister Qiang said viciously.

Brother Qiang immediately argued: "I didn't go back last night because I went to the hospital because of food poisoning!"

When it came to going to the hospital due to food poisoning, He Jiahui asked, "Brother Qiang, did you go to the hospital alone, or did you go with others?"

"I went with a guest, who said he was a director, came to the island to shoot commercials, and wanted to shoot me a campaign promotional video. I thought it would be nice if I could shoot a promotional video for free, so I bought him a drink bottle of beer.

Maybe the beer was too cold. The director said he had a stomachache. After all, he was my guest. I was worried that something might happen to him, so I sent him to the hospital.As a result, after arriving at the hospital, I also had a stomachache, and then I waited in the hospital all night, and I did not see a doctor until early today. "

"I think the beer has expired!" The sister-in-law Qiang snorted coldly, and then said, "Sir, he sells expired beer, arrest him!"

"Sister Qiang, the sale of expired beer is under the control of the Food and Drug Administration." He Jiahui smiled wryly, and then asked, "Brother Qiang, you stayed in the hospital all night, and the director you mentioned stayed with you the whole time." Together?"

Brother Qiang nodded: "yes, we were in the emergency room of the hospital all night. Besides, he had dinner with me. If something goes wrong, I will definitely take the responsibility.

So I didn't dare to leave before I saw the doctor. If he relies on me, I can't tell.Afterwards we saw the doctor, took medicine, got better, and slept in the hospital again. "

"It seems that director Xue Zhaohui's alibi is not a problem." He Jiahui thought to himself.

The alibis of the four people have been verified, and the actor Zhang Shaoyu is left.

Mrs. Qiang still didn't trust Brother Qiang, so he said, "Sir, don't believe him, he's just talking nonsense, last night, he must have gone out with some vixen!"

He Jiahui had no choice but to explain: "Sister Qiang, this time you really misunderstood Brother Qiang, what he said is true, because we have already found the director who suffered from food poisoning, and his narration is the same as Brother Qiang, saying that because He got food poisoning and stayed in the hospital overnight. We came here to find Brother Qiang to verify this matter."

After getting his name rectified by the police, Brother Qiang straightened up immediately, as if he was turning over and singing like a slave.

"Look, I told you all, I went to the hospital last night, and you just didn't believe me! Now Sir has cleared my name!"

"You have so many previous convictions with a vixen, who knows if you really went to the hospital!" Sister Qiang said not to be outdone.

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, He Jiahui hurried out to smooth things over. He changed the subject and asked, "Brother Qiang, the money you put in the drawer was stolen, do you want to call the police?"

"Call the police, of course!" Brother Qiang said immediately.

"Then take me to the scene to have a look!" He Jiahui said immediately.

Brother Qiang led He Jiahui into the food stall, then pointed to his drawer, and said, "This is the drawer. I locked it, but it was pried open."

He Jiahui put on his gloves, checked it, and found that the lock was indeed damaged by human beings, and there were no other clues other than that.

"Brother Qiang, how much money did you lose?" He Jiahui continued to ask.

"It's almost 2 yuan! Yesterday's business was very good. From afternoon to night, there were constant customers. I was still thinking about making a small profit, but it turned out that I was doing nothing all day, and I had to pay for the cost of ingredients." Qiang Brother sighed.

"Brother Qiang, have you ever been stolen before?" He Jiahui asked again.

"I don't have anything valuable here, except for a set of kitchen utensils, some seasonings, drinks in the freezer, and the rest are tables, chairs and benches. Which thief would come here to steal things!" Brother Qiang said.

"Didn't you put money in this drawer? How about 2 yuan, can you not recruit thieves?" He Jiahui asked.

Brother Qiang replied: "I usually don't put money in the drawer. Because there is no one at the food stall at night, I will take the money home after the business is closed every day.

But last night, I met a customer with food poisoning. I was in a hurry to send him to the hospital, so I locked the money here. Unexpectedly, I was actually a thief. "

He Jiahui continued to ask: "Brother Qiang, do you have monitoring installed here? If there is monitoring, we can find the thief by calling the monitoring."

"He's an old stingy guy, how could he be willing to pretend to be a surveillance camera!" Aunt Qiang's voice sounded from the side.

He Jiahui looked around, there was indeed no surveillance installed in the food stall.

He Jiahui let out a long sigh: "Without monitoring, this would be a bit difficult. There are more than 2 residents on the island, plus tourists come every day. If you want to find the thief, it's really a needle in a haystack! Brother Qiang, you have to have a mentality Be prepared, your stolen money may not be recovered."

……

Next, everyone came to the residence of Zhang Shaoyu, the leading actor in the advertisement. Zhang Shaoyu's mother and younger sister were all at home at this time.

He Jiahui and the other three were invited to the home by Zhang's mother. After a little greeting, He Jiahui asked: "Mrs. Zhang, Ms. Zhang, I have something to confirm with you. never left?"

Without waiting for Zhang's mother to speak, sister Zhang said, "Yesterday my brother came back early, saying that the director gave them a day off. After dinner at night, my brother went out for a walk with his parents. After returning, he took a shower. I took a bath and never went out again."

He Jiahui looked at Zhang's mother again, and Zhang's mother also gave the same confession.She said that her son did not go out at night.

After verifying Zhang Shaoyu's alibi, He Jiahui and others also got up to leave.

As soon as he left Zhang Shaoyu's house, Du Xiaohe said, "Now everyone's alibi has been confirmed, which means that the murderer is not among them, what should we do next?"

Taishan said: "Zhang Shaoyu's mother and sister are both his family members, and it is not ruled out that they deliberately gave false confessions to help Zhang Shaoyu conceal it for the sake of family affection.

Moreover, Zhang Shaoyu might have left secretly while his family members were asleep.The death time of the deceased was from [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] am, when most people were asleep, he went out quietly without making any movement, and his family members did not know. "

"According to what you say, Aunt Xian may go out quietly without making a sound. In that case, the young couple at the homestay won't know about it."

Du Xiaohe paused for a moment, and then said: "In this calculation, only the director's alibi is left, which is no problem. He stayed in the hospital all night, and there is also the witness of Brother Qiang."

He Jiahui didn't talk to him, and at this moment he fell into thinking again.

The veteran detective's intuition told He Jiahui that Zhang Shaoyu's mother and sister were not lying.

But what Taishan guessed, it is not impossible to go out secretly while his family is asleep.

It's just that speculation alone cannot convict people, and even correct reasoning needs the support of evidence.

"According to the on-site investigation, there is a high probability that an acquaintance committed the crime. However, several people who knew the deceased have alibi, which is troublesome. If it is not possible, we still have to start with the deceased's interpersonal relationship." He Jiahui thought secretly.

In general homicide cases, after excluding the possibility of robbery and rape, it is basically necessary to start the investigation from the aspect of the deceased's interpersonal relationship, to see if the deceased had any enemies, whether he owed money, whether there was any emotional dispute, etc.

But here is an outlying island, a relatively closed environment, which is often referred to as "isolated island mode", so He Jiahui did not start with the deceased's interpersonal relationship, but first investigated the acquaintances around the deceased.

Just when He Jiahui was thinking about how to handle the case next, the sound of dog barking suddenly sounded.

"Wow wow wow wow!"

A dirt dog suddenly jumped out from the door of a nearby house, but it didn't rush onto the road, but just yelled at several people within the range of its own door.

Several people were startled, not because of the dog, but because the dog's barking was too sudden, and no one was prepared in advance.

"Wangcai, stop barking, come back!" A woman's voice sounded from the room, and then an aunt in her 50s came out and stopped her dog from barking.

The aunt looked at He Jiahui and the others, and said apologetically, "Sir, I'm sorry for scaring you! My family's Wangcai is getting older, and his temper is getting more and more irritable."

He Jiahui took a closer look, it was indeed an old man, his eyes were blue, he probably had glaucoma, and the hair around his mouth had already turned white.

The aunt went on to explain: "In the past, it didn't bark indiscriminately. At most, it only barked a few times when strangers approached our house. Now even if it meets acquaintances, it will bark at others.

A Yu from the neighbor's house passed by last night, and he also yelled at them. A Yu grew up with it, but he couldn't recognize it at all!It is estimated that this dog, like humans, also suffers from dementia! "

"Neighbor Ayu? What's his full name?" He Jiahui asked immediately.

"Zhang Shaoyu! He's tall and big, and he's a handsome guy! I heard that he's working as a model outside the island, and he plans to become an actor." The aunt replied.

"Auntie, you just said that Zhang Shaoyu passed by yesterday evening, what time was it?" He Jiahui took out the recording pen and pressed the recording button while he was asking.

"Two: ten in the morning!" The aunt continued: "I was rang by Wangcai's cry, so I checked the alarm clock, and it was two ten in the morning."

"Then how do you know that Zhang Shaoyu was passing by?" He Jiahui continued to ask.

"At that time, I heard Wangcai's cry, and I was afraid that a thief would enter the house, so I went to the window and took a look. It was Ayu next door." The aunt said affirmatively.

"Auntie, you have really good eyesight, you can recognize Zhang Shaoyu even in the dark." He Jiahui said.

The aunt pointed to the street lamp and said confidently: "This street lamp is just in front of my house. Besides, I have been neighbors with A Yu's family for 20 years. I watched A Yu grow up, how could I not recognize him?" he!"

"Auntie, how did you confirm that Zhang Shaoyu is going out instead of going home?" He Jiahui continued to ask.

"The direction he was going was going out of the village." The aunt paused, and then said: "At about 04:30, Wangcai yelled again, and I glanced out the window, just in time to see Ayu come back .”

He Jiahui nodded suddenly: "That is to say, at 04:30 in the morning, you saw Zhang Shaoyu leave, and at [-]:[-] in the morning, you saw Zhang Shaoyu come back? Did you remember this time correctly?"

The aunt nodded: "I remember correctly, I saw the alarm clock at the time. Sir, if you don't believe me, you can ask other neighbors, maybe there were people who were woken up by Wangcai's cry!"

"Thank you, Auntie! If necessary, we will look for you again."

After He Jiahui finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Taishan, and said, "Taishan, you really guessed it this time. Zhang Shaoyu came out in the middle of the night, and his alibi cannot be established. We will invite him back to the police station again. !"
