People are in Zhenguan, solving crimes scientifically

Chapter 208 Guess! Years of planning!

Several people quickly left Qin Fen's residence and rushed towards the county prison.

While riding on horseback, Lin Feng asked Zhao Xieyang: "Zhao County Lieutenant, how did the investigation go?"

Zhao Xieyang did not dare to delay and said quickly: "I have already asked about the neighbors around Qin Fen's residence. Qin Fen's residence is close to the roadside, so there are only neighbors on one side, but there is only an old man living in that neighbor's house. This old man is somewhat deaf and cannot hear ordinary sounds at all, so he heard nothing around midnight last night."

"As for the neighbors further away, they had fallen asleep at midnight and said they didn't hear any movement."

While driving the horse, Lin Feng muttered: "The murderer dared to fight with Zhang Heng, which shows that he is not afraid of making noise. Considering that Qin Fen's neighbor is an old man with deaf ears... the murderer should know Qin Fen's residence very well. He has either been to Qin Fen's residence, or he knew Qin Fen's identity in advance and conducted a secret investigation."

Zhao Xieyang nodded repeatedly: "That's what Lin Si is saying."

Lin Feng looked ahead to prevent the horse from hurting pedestrians, while saying: "How is the investigation of the interpersonal relationship between Qin Fen and Zhang Heng going?"

Zhao Xieyang said: "The people sent by the lower officials to Zhang Heng's house to inquire have returned the results. Zhang Heng's family said that Zhang Heng has no close friends, but he also has no enemies. Zhang Heng has always been in a kind of situation where he is friendly to everyone. In this state, there is a lack of confidants, and at midnight last night, Zhang Heng’s family were all resting in the house, but they were all asleep at that time and could not prove each other.”

"As for Qin Fen...because Qin Fen's wife's natal family is in another county, the investigation will take some time."

This man had no clothes on his upper body, his muscles were full, and he was covered with old injuries. He was gritting his teeth and struggling hard, but the rope was tied very firmly by the jailer, and no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free.

After Zhao Shiwu saw the man's face, his eyes widened and he exclaimed.

…………

"So, this time Zhang Henghui and Qin Fen left, Zhang Heng's family was actually very surprised. If Qin Fen hadn't died as well, Zhang Heng's family would definitely think that Zhang Heng was killed by Qin Fen."

County prison.

A rare trace of doubt appeared in Lin Feng's eyes: "Is he really Han Mo? If it is Han Mo, did he really kill him? Which of my three speculations does he fit?"

"Not only did they look down on each other when they were on duty in the yamen, but they also treated each other indifferently when they met in private. They even once went to a brothel to find a girl, and even fought over the same girl, which made them laugh. Everyone in the family knows how bad the relationship between the two is."

In this case, except for colleagues in the yamen, it is difficult for outsiders to know who they have in common.

As soon as he entered, he saw a relatively burly man tied to the blood-stained wooden shelf in the interrogation room.

After Lin Feng and others arrived at the prison, they entered the interrogation room directly without stopping.

"Also...Han Mo was discovered."

No confidants, no enemies... Lin Feng thought for a while and said, "Does Zhang Heng's family know who Zhang Heng and Qin Fen have in common? Do Zhang Heng and Qin Fen often meet in private? If they meet, will they meet again? Where to go?"

Zhao Xieyang shook his head: "Zhang Heng rarely talks about himself to his family, so his family doesn't know if Zhang Heng and Qin Fen have any acquaintances in common. As for whether the two often meet in private, Zhang Heng's family said Except for this time, it has almost never happened. After all, it is well known that Zhang Heng and Qin Fen have a bad relationship."

The more Lin Feng thought about it, the more puzzled he became. He always felt that Han Mo should not appear on the chessboard in front of him, but Han Mo did.

But if so, why did the murderers conceal their identities?

Could the murderer be in the yamen?

Or is there someone they obviously know in common that they have overlooked?

Or, the third possibility is that the murderer discovered his identity when they were investigating themselves? But if this is the case, the murderer has little time to prepare. In less than two days, he has to plan everything for the crime, investigate the situation around Qin Fen's residence in advance, and ensure that the two of them will be there. Together, they even have to make sure that the two of them will be at Qin Fen's mansion and not somewhere else... This is not an easy task.

Lin Feng pursed his lips and frowned slightly.

He took a deep breath. It seems that these doubts can only be known after meeting Han Mo.

In order to disguise themselves better, Zhang Heng and Qin Fen deliberately showed that their relationship was extremely bad, so they would avoid meeting in public instead of meeting each other without incident.

"Moreover, why did you want to kill Qin Fen and Zhang Heng? Could it be that he has been subsumed by a certain force?"

"The real murderer was so cautious in Qin Fen's mansion, but after killing someone, he would also hide the weapon in his room? Isn't this a mistake that should not be made?"

"He's really the innkeeper!"

Lin Feng's eyes were deep, and he looked at the man in front of him. At this time, the innkeeper also noticed Lin Feng and the others. He glared at Lin Feng and the others fiercely, gritted his teeth and said: "I didn't expect that you would even find out about this. What are you going to do?" If you want to kill, then kill, if you want to cut, then cut into pieces. If I frown, my surname is not Han!"

Listening to the innkeeper's words, Lin Feng slowly came to the table, sat down immediately, looked at the innkeeper calmly, and said in a calm tone: "Are you really Han Mo?"

The innkeeper was startled when he saw Lin Feng, who was wearing a Taoist robe, sitting on the main seat, while the county lieutenant Zhao Xieyang stood aside quietly without any dissatisfaction. But soon, he realized Lin Feng's identity was unusual. He stared straight at Lin Feng and grinned: "I didn't expect that among the guests I received yesterday, there was also a big shot... I just don't know which big shot you are?"

Lin Feng said calmly: "Dali Temple is in charge of Lin Feng."

"Dali Temple is...that legendary detective Lin Feng?" The innkeeper couldn't hide the surprise on his face.

Lin Feng took in the expression on the innkeeper's face and did not miss any details. This made him realize that unless the person in front of him was very good at detail management and could perfectly control his micro-expressions...otherwise it would only prove that the inn The shopkeeper really knew nothing about his identity.

"He doesn't know that I'm in the caravan..." Lin Feng pondered a little in his heart, and then continued: "Tell me about you, are you really Han Mo?"

The innkeeper sneered: "Don't you already have a judgment? If I say that I am not, will it be useful? If it is useful, then I will say that I am not."

"presumptuous!"

Zhao Xieyang scolded: "Han Mo, if you don't want to suffer, I advise you to answer properly and don't be presumptuous!"

The innkeeper looked at Lin Feng, grinned and said, "Look, I said it's not useless at all. In that case, I can only admit it."

"Something's wrong."

Lin Feng looked at the grinning innkeeper and suddenly realized something was wrong.

The real murderer did many things in Qin Fen's mansion to hide himself. Lin Feng is such an experienced person. Sometimes even if he is given irrefutable evidence, he will deny it and keep calling for injustice. Therefore, the inn in front of him is Shopkeeper, how could you admit it so readily?

He pondered for a while and said slowly: "I think you should be a man. You will definitely admit what you have done, right?" The innkeeper was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Lin Feng to say such a thing, but Lin Feng's words... It really appealed to his taste. He nodded immediately and said: "As expected of the famous detective Lin Sizheng, his words are more eloquent than these dog officials. That's right, I can't change my name or my surname, as long as it's what I've done." , will never deny it.”

Lin Feng stared at him with his eyes, and slowly tapped the table with his fingertips, saying: "Then you also admit that you killed Qin Fen and Zhang Heng?"

"what?"

The innkeeper was stunned for a moment: "Why do I admit to killing Qin Fen and Zhang Heng? When did I kill them?"

"Han Mo! How dare you deny it!"

Zhao Xieyang stared at Han Mo with wide eyes, and shouted angrily: "Qin Fen and Zhang Heng died under your sword. After they were killed, they were hidden in your inn. This kind of corpse removal can only be done It’s most convenient for you to do it, and you still say you weren’t the one who killed him!?”

Han Mo's face suddenly turned red after listening to Zhao Xieyang's words. He clenched his hands into fists, and the veins all over his body were exposed in excitement. He seemed to have been greatly humiliated. He shouted: "Zhao Xieyang, don't throw any shit at my head." , I have killed countless people in my life, but I have never denied anyone I have killed! But don’t even think about covering up the people I have killed!"

Zhao Xieyang didn't expect Han Mo's reaction to be so big. He hugged his arms and said coldly: "Your knife is the best evidence, and it is you who reported the report in the letter. This is the fact. No matter how you quibble, it will not matter." Useless."

Han Mo stared at Zhao Xieyang as if he wanted to eat someone: "I understand, you, Zhao Xieyang, don't have the ability to find the murderer, so you unjustly accused me and made me take the blame!"

As he said that, he turned to look at Lin Feng and said, "Lin Feng, aren't you known as a detective? Don't you claim that no case can be difficult for you? Are you like Zhao Xieyang, who just gives up if he can't find the murderer?" Shall I take the blame?"

"shut up!"

Zhao Xieyang scolded: "Han Mo, the evidence is here, you don't have to make a living!"

But Han Mo ignored Zhao Xieyang at all, and just stared at Lin Feng with his eyes, as if he wanted to know if Lin Feng and Zhao Xieyang were the same thing.

Lin Feng faced Zhao Xieyang's scrutinizing gaze, his expression unchanged, his fingertips still lightly tapping the table, and said slowly: "Han Mo, why did you admit it so happily just now?"

Han Mo sneered: "I thought someone discovered my identity and reported me. You followed the clues and found me... I thought you were after my hidden identity. Who knew you would think that I was killing Qin Fen?" The real culprit with Zhang Heng is really ridiculous!"

Lin Feng was silent for a moment. He turned to look at Sun Fujia and lowered his voice: "Mr. Sun, what do you think?"

Sun Fujia frowned and looked at Han Mo, pondered a little, and slowly shook his head: "I'm not sure yet."

"It stands to reason that the weapons in Han Mo's room exactly match the murder weapon, and the inference you and I just got...the murderer is either rich or noble, and he had contact with the deceased."

"It's either rich or noble... Han Mo runs the largest inn in Shenshan County. He will never be short of money. He meets this condition and had contact with the deceased..."

He looked at Lin Feng and said: "The Four Elephants organization wants to find our traces, and its main target is major inns. In other words, Qin Fen and Zhang Heng have definitely been to the inn where we live to inquire about information, so there is definitely contact between them. Pass."

"In addition, Han Mo is the innkeeper, and it is very easy to transport the body into the inn, which meets the conditions for moving the body... Therefore, Han Mo's suspicion level is very high, and the investigation will focus on him, and there is no problem. "

Lin Feng nodded slightly, agreed with Sun Fuga's words, and continued: "Then why are you not so sure?"

Sun Fujia looked at Han Mo with a sneer on his face, frowned and said: "But the way Han Mo behaved gave me the feeling that he was not lying. He has shouldered so many lives, so it's not bad. Two, there is absolutely no need to hide it... So, I am very hesitant now. Reason tells me that Han Mo is consistent with the murderer's situation in all aspects, but on a psychological level, I feel that he is not."

Listening to Sun Fuga's contradictory words, Lin Feng smiled and said, "I can understand you."

When Sun Fuga heard this, he couldn't help but said: "Zide, do you think he is the real murderer?"

Lin Feng shook his head: "It's too early to say yes or no now. Don't worry, I'll talk to him again."

Lin Feng ended his low conversation with Sun Fujia and looked at Han Mo again. He said, "I'm very curious about your experience over the years. Can we talk about it?"

After listening to Lin Feng's words, Han Mo looked at Lin Feng with confusion on his face. He always felt that the Lin Feng in front of him was different from all the people in the government he met.

Neither his temperament nor the way he spoke gave him a condescending and aggressive feeling. On the contrary, it made him feel comfortable and made him willing to talk more to Lin Feng unconsciously.

He subconsciously suppressed the sneer on his face and said: "There is nothing to say. I am wanted by your government, so I can only change my appearance and make a living. It happened that the shopkeeper of this inn was selling money at that time. I had some money from killing people and stealing goods before, so I bought it. This inn, where I have been hunkering down and making money, is extremely boring compared to my previous life."

"Since it's boring, why not go back and continue to kill people and buy goods?" Lin Feng's eyes were calm and penetrating, and he said: "Actually, you like this quiet life very much, right? Compared with licking blood from the knife edge before, living a life with today and no tomorrow. Life, you should prefer the stable life of being an innkeeper and making money by relying on your own abilities and hard work, right?"

"That's why, after your identity was discovered by the government, you gave up on yourself and admitted your identity without hesitation... The more you show that you don't care about all this, the more it proves that in your heart care."

"You..." Han Mo couldn't help but widen his eyes and stared at Lin Feng. He opened his mouth and wanted to refute loudly, but no sound came out.

In front of Lin Feng's eyes that seemed to see everything, he felt that any of his words were powerless.

Lin Feng looked at him calmly, still with the same look that saw everything, which put great psychological pressure on Han Mo, and continued: "During the years you have been hiding in Shenshan County, has anyone ever discovered your identity?"

"I..." Han Mo had just been directly grasped by Lin Feng. Now when he heard this, he almost subconsciously replied: "Probably not, I have always behaved normally."

"Why did you hide the weapon in your room?" Lin Feng asked again.

"I have always been used to it. Only in this way can I respond quickly when I encounter danger."

Hiding the knife was his own initiative and had nothing to do with anyone else. He also thought he hid it very well and was not discovered by anyone. Then who else might have the chance to know that he is Han Mo...

A few years ago, he committed the last crime in a nearby county... He was wanted by the government and had nowhere to go, so he had to find another way to make a living... At this time, in Shenshan County, not far away, an inn suddenly wanted to be redeemed...

Suddenly, Lin Feng's eyes suddenly flashed.

He raised his head suddenly, looked directly at Han Mo, and said, "Who was the shopkeeper who sold you the inn back then?"
