I'm a street kid, but my wife, a policewoman, won't divorce her

Chapter 684 After the Fire!

The moment the word "shame" came to Chen Xiao's mind, his heart beat uncontrollably.

Chen Xiao didn't want to let this feeling slip away.

As for the matter of face, he didn't have too many thoughts in his mind, so he asked Qin Feilai directly.

"Captain Qin, how about we do an experiment?"

"Okay, what do you say we should do?" Qin Fei nodded decisively.

Chen Xiao thought for a moment and replied, "I will play the deceased and you will play the murderer. When the experiment started, I was strangled to death by you, and all you have to do is peel off my skin."

Although Qin Fei frowned.

But he quickly understood what Chen Xiao meant and knew that Chen Xiao wanted to interpret the murderer's behavior.

As Chen Xiao said, Qin Fei began to play the murderer, while Chen Xiao moved the first chair and closed his eyes to play the role of Yuan Keyu after his death.

Soon, he felt Qin Fei's hands on his head.

Then Qin Fei's palm moved down little by little, making a tearing motion.

Chen Xiao had been feeling Qin Fei's movements, and slowly put himself into the role of the deceased.

As soon as he entered the role, Chen Xiao immediately recalled the traces of kicking.

The deceased's kicking was caused by his struggle while being strangled.

But there were signs of kicking his feet, but no signs of scratching on the chair.

This shows that before the deceased was strangled to death, his hands were most likely pulling the rope around his neck.

But no matter how the deceased struggled, he should have been defenseless before being strangled.

If he was on guard, he would not be able to sit quietly in the chair.

In other words, either the deceased did not know that there was a person hiding in the house, or the deceased knew the murderer.

If they knew each other, then the deceased came to Xiaozhuangnan Town just to see him.

He chose a low-rent apartment that was completely different from his usual living habits, and the apartment was also monitored.

Such behavior shows that the deceased Yuan Keyu was on guard when he came here.

But why did he, who was on guard, let down his guard after meeting the person he wanted to see?

Did the deceased let down his guard after the two of them had some communication?

Or was it that he was originally on guard because he was unsure about who he would meet, but after meeting the other person in person and confirming his identity, he let down his guard?
For a moment, Chen Xiao had countless questions in his mind.

There are no answers to those questions!

Chen Xiao's heart gradually became a little irritated, but when Qin Fei started to peel again, Chen Xiao forced himself to calm down.

The deceased was not completely stripped of his skin.

The murderer stopped at the victim's neck.

This is also the reason why Chen Xiao pays special attention to his face.

However, Chen Xiao immediately thought of another question.

That question made him open his eyes immediately and ask:
"Captain Qin, the description of the physical evidence in the case file doesn't involve hair, right?"

"No." "But the deceased's skin was peeled off by first shaving off all the hair, and then peeling it off."

"I have thought about this, but I can't figure out why the murderer took the victim's hair, nor can I figure out what use the hair would have for the murderer." Tan Fei said, and then smiled bitterly:
"Although Professor Yuan is not very old, perhaps because he has been doing research for many years and thinking too frequently, he has already shown signs of a lot of hair loss at such a young age."

Chen Xiao nodded: "So every time he appears in the surveillance video, he is wearing a hat."

"Yeah, I think that's why I suspected that the people entering and leaving this building might be someone else."

"Well, after all, in our line of work, we would be wary of any covering of the deceased. But now that I think about it, I think there are big problems with the deceased's hat and the hair that was taken away after his death."

Qin Fei did not respond.

Like Chen Xiao, he can think of many problems.

But there are no answers to those questions.

After thinking for a while, Chen Xiao spoke again: "Captain Qin, please contact the landlord and ask him to come over. We can ask him some questions in person."

After Qin Fei said okay, he called the landlord Sang Yupeng.

The latter did not refuse after answering the call and arrived at the scene quickly.

"Captain Qin, Consultant Chen, hello." Sang Yupeng greeted them first. After Chen Xiao and Qin Fei smiled and nodded, he asked directly:

"Mr. Sang, we have looked inside and outside your house before. I think your house has been renovated in recent years. If so, what was the reason for the renovation?"

Chen Xiao asked, and Sang Yupeng said with some surprise:
"This question is quite novel. Many police officers have asked me questions before, but no one has ever asked me this question."

Chen Xiao smiled faintly: "This question is not strange, and the others should have asked the answer they wanted in a different way."

Sang Yupeng sighed and said:

"My house caught fire five years ago. I was arrested and imprisoned for a few years. After I got out, I collected data from cameras and installed surveillance."

"I see! But which floor did the fire originate from? There weren't any serious casualties, right?"

Sang Yupeng's face was full of bitterness:
"No one died. The fire broke out during working hours and it was not a holiday, so most of the students and workers were not in the house. Only a few people were burned. But I spent all my money to treat those people!"

"Hey... after this matter is over, I will never rent this house out again. After this house was built, I don't know if it's because of bad feng shui or what, but things keep happening!"

Sang Yupeng said this, his eyes full of fatigue and helplessness.

Chen Xiao looked into his eyes, and then asked: "What about the source?"

"It was a resident on the third floor. He was too lazy to go to work and just stayed in the house, smoking and reading novels. According to his own account, after he threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray, he happened to be going out, so he left without paying attention to whether the cigarette butt was completely extinguished."

"The most outrageous thing is that the guy put the ashtray on the bed! If it wasn't for him, my whole building wouldn't have burned down. It was clearly him who caused the fire, but in the end, I, the landlord, had to pay compensation and go to jail because of fire safety reasons."

Although the incident happened several years ago, when Sang Yupeng mentioned it again, there was still deep hatred and grievance in his eyes.

Chen Xiao did not go to comfort Sang Yupeng.

After carefully considering the information about the fire, the residents, and the injured, he continued:

"Mr. Sang, can you still provide a list of the injured at that time?"

"Yes, a police officer asked me this before, didn't they give it to you?" Sang Yupeng asked back. Chen Xiao just smiled and didn't say much.

Seeing this, Sang Yupeng didn't ask any more questions. He wrote down the list and handed it to Qin Fei.

After Chen Xiao looked at the list, he finally asked:
"Mr. Sang, a police officer should have looked for your child Sang Xiaoming yesterday, right? Is he in school now, or somewhere else?"
