Attend a classmate's wedding and arrest the bride on the spot

Chapter 285 The man on crutches

When Ye Chen turned his head to look at the house, the system prompts in his brain immediately rang.

【drop!drop!drop! 】

[A suspect in a major criminal case is found ten meters ahead. Please arrest him immediately! 】

Hearing this prompt, Ye Chen was shocked.

The direction indicated by the system is exactly inside the room!

In other words, the suspect is in the room at this moment? !

Could it be that what I just thought could actually be true? ?

Ye Chen quickly walked to the door, opened the door and walked in.

After entering the living room of this self-built rural house, there are two bedrooms on the left and right sides.

Yesterday's bedroom should have been Mrs. Liu's own bedroom, and the door on the other side, which was closed, was her youngest son Xiaohe's bedroom.

Ye Chen stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Ye Chen knocked on the door but received no response. Mrs. Liu quickly came over and said, "My son shouldn't have gotten up yet. He injured his leg. He hasn't been out of the house in the past few days. Why are you looking for him?"

Ye Chen said: "Such a big case happened. Your eldest daughter-in-law and granddaughter were killed. The suspect has not yet been found. How can your youngest son still be able to sleep at this moment?"

Hearing what Ye Chen said, Mrs. Liu also felt that it made sense, so she stepped forward to help call the door: "Xiaohe! Are you still sleeping? Open the door quickly, something happened at your sister-in-law's house!"

Mrs. Liu shouted for a while, and a cough sounded in the room, and then she heard the sound of a cane hitting the ground. After a while, a young man in his 20s opened the door.

The man was pale, with sweat on his forehead. He was wearing a black T-shirt, a cane under his arm, and a thick bandage on one foot.

"Look, I told you that my little son's leg is injured, but you still have to let him get up. What can he know if he is in the room?"

Ye Chen ignored Old Mrs. Liu, but stared at the young man in front of him.

He was the brother-in-law of the murdered pregnant woman, the biological uncle of the little girl, and the biological brother of the deceased’s husband.

And the suspect indicated by the system was actually him.

In other words, the woman and child next door were all killed by him.

Why did he do this?
What was his motive for killing?
"Are you okay?"

The young man on crutches asked.

Ye Chen sneered and said: "Two people died next door, and the whole village ran out to check the situation. You live next door, and you can remain indifferent? It's really strange."

Hearing Ye Chen's words, the man's expression changed and he explained: "I was sleeping in the house and didn't hear anything going on outside."

Ye Chen did not expose him and continued to ask: "We just found the footprints left by the suspect when he fled in the vegetable field in the corner. While you were in the house, did you hear anything in the yard?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Liu nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, Xiaohe, your sister-in-law and your niece were both killed! It's so scary! The police comrades said that the murderer jumped to us from the bathroom window of your sister-in-law's house. He ran away in the yard and then escaped. I was at the door of your sister-in-law’s house just now and didn’t come back. Did you hear that??”

Xiaohe shook his head and said, "I didn't hear anything. I was sleeping in the house and didn't hear anything."

Xiao Feng and Xiao Hou were still checking in the yard, and their voices came from a distance.

"This is really strange. I can only find these two footprints in the vegetable field, but I can't find any trace of escaping from this yard. Could it be that this murderer has disappeared from the world?"

There was a hint of insightful smile on Ye Chen's lips.

"It's impossible for a human to evaporate. Maybe he didn't escape at all."

Team Liu, who was standing next to Ye Chen, was stunned when he heard Ye Chen's words.

"Didn't escape? You mean, he is still in this yard?"

Ye Chen nodded.

Although his system has already prompted that the young man on crutches in front of him, Xiaohe, is the murderer, he still has to provide evidence. He can't just arrest the person just because he says he is the murderer.

To arrest someone, you need evidence.Right now, what Ye Chen has to do is to find conclusive evidence that the young man in front of him committed murder as soon as possible.

Ye Chen said: "The lock on the courtyard door has not been broken, and there are no traces of escape on the wall. Then the murderer must still be in this courtyard. We will start searching immediately. I believe we will find relevant evidence soon!"

Hearing what Ye Chen said, Captain Liu nodded and said, "It makes sense!"

"Xiao Hou, Xiao Feng, Zhong Ling, you guys, start searching the yard immediately. Be careful not to encounter the murderer!"

Several people agreed and immediately got busy.

Everyone's attention was focused on the debris in the yard and the several houses in the yard, checking to see if anyone was hiding inside.

But Ye Chen's attention was all on Xiaohe in front of him.

Sure enough, from the moment Ye Chen said he wanted to search the yard, beads of sweat immediately began to form on Xiaohe's forehead.

He looked at the busy people outside and couldn't help but said, "Then you continue to investigate. My leg is injured and I can't help you, so I will go to bed first."

The man on crutches was about to close the door as he spoke.

Ye Chen opened his hand and blocked the door.

The man was shocked and said, "What are you doing?!"

Ye Chen looked at him and said, "If we want to search, naturally we have to search your house as well. No corner of it can be spared."

The suspect fled to this yard after committing the murder.

Ye Chen guessed that he was also wearing a raincoat stained with blood.

Because the police arrived too quickly and the murderer had not had time to destroy it, the raincoat must still be hidden in this person's house.

As long as this raincoat is found, his murder will be revealed.

As soon as he heard that Ye Chen was going to enter the house to search, the man suddenly panicked.

He quickly said: "I have been sleeping in the house and I haven't seen anyone come in. The murderer will definitely not be in my house!"

The smile on Ye Chen's face did not diminish and he said: "It's hard to say. Maybe the murderer sneaked into your house while you were sleeping? It's better to look for it for peace of mind!"

"Xiao Hou, Zhong Ling, go in and take a look!"

Xiao Hou and Zhong Ling'er heard Ye Chen calling and walked in immediately.

Xiao Hou couldn't help but squeezed into the house and started rummaging around.

At this moment, the voice of the system in Ye Chen's brain immediately came over.

【Drip drip! 】

[Important evidence was found two meters ahead, a bloody raincoat! 】

Hearing this voice, Ye Chen's heart moved.

I immediately followed the sound of the system and looked over.

It was discovered that the location indicated by the system was in the rice vat placed in the corner behind the door.

Ye Chen secretly thought: Could it be that the raincoat is actually hidden in this rice vat?

Thinking of this, Ye Chen immediately walked towards the rice vat at the door.

The man on crutches saw this and wanted to stop him.

"What are you doing? This is my rice vat. Can someone hide in it? If you dig it out, how can we eat it?!"

Ye Chen smiled lightly and said, "Why are you so nervous?"

"Is there really something inside that cannot be seen?"
