Chapter 32 The Longtan Island Massacre (3)
At the very beginning of the wonderful holiday, it was messed up by a murder case, which made all the tourists on the beach very frustrated. After being interrogated by the police, they all cursed the "damn murderer". Appearing, it is very likely to be drowned by everyone's saliva.

After the on-site investigation, Yao Shun did not go back to the police station with Zhao Guangjun to assist in solving the case, because the island was not under his jurisdiction, and what he could do had already been done on the spot. He was just like the ordinary tourists on the beach , I wanted to come on vacation to relax, and I never thought about handling any cases. If it wasn't because of a coincidence, I believe he would never have asked.

But maybe it was because of his professional instincts. He was lying on the bed in the hotel, and the case was always lingering in his mind. He had a feeling that this case was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, and the murderer would not be easily caught.Of course, he hoped this feeling had better not be true.

"Ding dong" the doorbell rang, and Yao and Shun temporarily stopped thinking.

The person who rang the doorbell was none other than Zhao Guangjun, director of the police station. From his solemn expression, it was not difficult to see that the case did not seem to have made any progress.

"Any clues about the murderer?" Yao Shun asked Zhao Guangjun after entering the house.

Zhao Guangjun nodded helplessly, and said: "Well, the case seems to be more difficult than expected. We have already deployed control on the pier as soon as possible, and strictly checked all the people who are going to leave the island, but we still haven't found the mysterious woman. It is very likely that she left the island immediately after the incident.”

"That's right. If she really killed someone, it's impossible for her to be so stupid as to stay on the island, but that doesn't rule out the possibility that she's still hiding somewhere on the island."

"Yeah, I've sent someone to check the monitoring at the entrance and exit docks to see if I can find anything."

"What about the results of the detailed autopsy?"

Although Yaoshun knew that he was on vacation, he also wanted to relax and didn't want to get involved in the case, but out of curiosity and professional instinct, he couldn't help but want to know more.

"The time of death was determined to be between 1:2 p.m. and [-]:[-] p.m. This time is basically consistent with the information provided by Ma Jucai. The cause of death is consistent with the conclusion of the preliminary autopsy. It was potassium cyanide poisoning, and the poison entered the body through the mouth. In addition, through blood tests on the deceased, it was confirmed that the deceased drank a lot of alcohol before his death. Since the scene of the crime was by the sea, the environment around the corpse was severely damaged by sea water, so apart from the clues found on the deceased, no one was found. Valuable leads."

"What about the identity of the deceased?"

"We are still investigating. We have searched all around the crime scene, but we have not found any items that can prove the identity of the deceased. Moreover, it is the peak tourist season, and there are many tourists visiting the island. The tour groups have checked everything. No one Missing, but after all, there are more people traveling by car now. If the deceased came to the island alone for vacation, it would be more difficult to investigate. In addition, our police station has limited manpower, so I hope..." Zhao Guangjun wanted to speak and then It seems a little difficult to stop.

"You hope that I can also participate in this case?" Yao Shun saw what Zhao Guangjun meant, so he said proactively.

"Yes! You see, such a vicious case has never happened on my island. If you want me to handle a theft case, a gambling case, etc., I still have more than enough to handle it. This is the first time I have encountered it. The ability of this criminal investigation is really limited, and I have heard about your ability to handle cases for a long time. The process of solving the serial murders of Wang Baocai brothers has long been spread to our small island. It's really thrilling and exciting, it really feels like watching a blockbuster suspenseful movie..."

"Zhao Suo, don't put a high hat on me. The police in the world are a family. Why are you so polite? I will report to the chief and ask him to send some police to help on the island." Yaoshun enthusiastically agreed. .

"That's great!" Zhao Guangjun said excitedly.

Although a wonderful holiday came to an end at the very beginning, Yao and Shun didn't feel any regrets. After all, as a criminal policeman, how could he sit idly by and a murder happened next to him.

After getting the director's consent, Yao and Shun officially took over the case, and the dispatched police force has already set off and is on the way to Longtan Island.

"By the way, the deceased had drunk alcohol before his death. At that time, he and the mysterious woman appeared at the beach at around noon. Before that, the man should have eaten somewhere on the island. You have investigated this aspect. Is it?" After hanging up the phone, Yao Shun asked Zhao Guangjun.

"Well, we are already investigating, but there are no less than a hundred hotels and restaurants on the island, so it is still difficult to investigate. We can only investigate one by one now." Zhao Guangjun said.

Hearing this, Yao and Shun thought for a moment, then said: "Judging from the gold necklace on the deceased's neck, the deceased should belong to the nouveau riche type. This type of people prefers to show off in front of others. I believe it is impossible for him to live If you go to a small hotel or go to a small restaurant to eat, you should go to a relatively famous big hotel on the island to stay and eat, so in the investigation, you can start with the big hotel and check down layer by layer, which can also save time and avoid detours .”

"I really didn't notice this. As expected, I am an old criminal investigator with rich experience." Zhao Guangjun admired, and immediately called the police to inform the police not to investigate blindly, and asked them to start the investigation from the big hotel first, and then He asked again: "Captain Yao, is the nature of this case suicide or homicide?"

"Although the possibility of suicide cannot be ruled out, I thought about it carefully. If this man is going to commit suicide, why would he take a woman to the beach to commit suicide? Of course, there have been cases of couples committing suicide together, but if two people use Cyanide suicide, how is it possible that one is dead and the other is missing?"

"It makes sense. It seems that the investigation can only continue if the identity of this man is found out first." Zhao Guangjun said.

Yao and Shun's investigation ideas were indeed correct. The police officer in charge of investigating the identity of the deceased finally received good news after 11 o'clock in the middle of the night. At the same time, the police force dispatched from the bureau had also arrived on the island.Under the arrangement of Yao and Shun, they divided their troops into four groups. One group guarded the pier to assist in the investigation of all the people who left the island; the other group investigated the mysterious woman on the island; The investigation was carried out in the hotel where he stayed; Fourth Road cooperated with the police officers on the island to check the monitoring data of the pier, trying to find clues as soon as possible.

Through investigation, it was found that the name of the male deceased was Lu Yonglin, the chairman of the City Tongda Construction Company, with a net worth of tens of millions. He had arrived at Longtan Island the day before his death and lived in room 803 of the Yidu Hotel on the island.

In room 803 of the hotel, investigators are carefully searching for valuable clues.

The hotel's surveillance video showed that Lu Yonglin was alone when he came. After staying in the guest room, he rested for half a day before going out, and did not return to the hotel until early in the morning.Then on the second day, the day of his death, he didn't leave the hotel until after ten o'clock in the morning, and never returned to the hotel after that.And during the period of his stay, no one came to the hotel to look for him.

Yao Shun also asked the hotel waiter about the situation, but since it was the peak tourist season, there were a lot of guests staying in the hotel, so the waiter didn't have a deep impression of Lu Yonglin, and couldn't provide any valuable clues at all.

The investigation in the guest room soon yielded results. Although a large number of clear fingerprints were found in the guest room, it is not uncommon to leave fingerprints because it is the peak tourist season and the guests in the hotel room change frequently.Although the waiter also cleaned before Lu Yonglin checked in, it was impossible to clean it spotlessly, let alone wipe off the fingerprints left by the guests deliberately, so although the fingerprints are clear, they may not be helpful to solve the case.

In addition, there was no sign of tampering in the guest room, and 2 yuan in cash was found in the deceased's travel bag, which further reduced the possibility of robbery and murder for money.Because Lu Yonglin took a black bag with him when he went to the beach, but the bag disappeared after his death, and it can be seen from the surveillance in the hotel aisle that after leaving the guest room, Lu Yonglin put the room card into the black bag. In the bag.If Lu Yonglin's death was related to money, how could the murderer not use the hotel key card that Lu Yonglin put in his pocket to raid the guest room?Even if the murderer was worried that he would be photographed by surveillance cameras when he went back to the hotel to take away the money, thus exposing himself, why didn't he even take away the obvious gold necklace worn by the deceased?And the most important point is how could cyanide be used as a murder weapon in robbery and murder for money?

Therefore, in Yaoshun's view, there should be only two possibilities for the case, one is suicide and the other is premeditated homicide.

At the same time, on the other hand, the police officer in charge of investigating Lu Yonglin's whereabouts on the island also sent good news at this time. During the time before Lu Yonglin was on the island until his death, he ate at a large restaurant on the island. rice.

After learning of this situation, Yao and Shun rushed to the restaurant to find out the situation.

According to the memories of the waiter in the restaurant, Lu Yonglin ate lunch and dinner on Longtan Island and the lunch on the day of his death in their restaurant. Among them, he ate two lunches by himself, and only the dinner on the day of going to the island was with Ate for four people.But because they ate in a private room, and during the process, Lu Yonglin specifically told that the waiter was not allowed to go in and disturb them, so no one knew what the few people were talking about, only whether they were together or not. I left after an hour, and the food on the table didn't move much.

As for the physical characteristics of the other four people, the waiter couldn't provide them in detail, because when the four people arrived at the restaurant, they all wore large sunglasses and peaked caps with the brims of the hats pressed down very low. They kept their heads down all the time, so there was no way to see their specific appearances clearly. The only thing that was certain was that among the four, one of them was a woman judging from the characteristics of her figure and long hair.

Judging from the clues provided by the waiter, although the detection of the case of Lu Yonglin's death did not provide breakthrough help, it is not difficult to see that Lu Yonglin himself seemed to have some problems.

And the behavior of the four people who met Lu Yonglin at the hotel deliberately covering up so that people could not see their appearance was also very suspicious. If these four people were aboveboard, I believe it would be impossible to dress up like this.

And among the four people, there is also a woman, so this woman must be familiar with Lu Yonglin, so is she the woman Lu Yonglin brought to the beach?Does she have anything to do with Lu Yonglin's death?If so, are she and Lu Yonglin planning to make an appointment to commit suicide, or are they intending to kill someone?If the murder was intentional, what would be the motive for the murder?
"Immediately report the situation of Lu Yonglin to the bureau, and ask them to assist in the investigation. Be sure to check out the details of this Lu Yonglin. Also check Lu Yonglin's mobile phone number, focusing on checking the incoming and outgoing calls during the period before his death. According to the number given, he was alone when he went to the hotel to have dinner before he died, and then he appeared at the seaside with that mysterious woman, whether it was a coincidence or a pre-arranged appointment must be found out.” Yao Shun ordered, and then asked, "Have you notified Lu Yonglin's family to come to the island to identify the body?"

"It has been notified and is bringing his wife here."

"Well, let the waiter make a puzzle for those four people to see if they can find similar people on the island, and the second thing is to compare the surveillance videos of the docks entering and leaving the island, especially the woman among the four people, now she The suspicion is the biggest, and we have to compare the puzzle with the one provided by Ma Jucai before to see if it is the same woman."

Due to the limited technology on the island, Yao Shun asked the dispatched investigators to conduct a re-examination of Lu Yonglin's body, hoping to use more high-tech means to find clues from it.

After testing, Lu Yonglin was indeed poisoned by potassium cyanide. The poisoning amount was about 0.3g. In addition to the alcohol component detected in his mouth and body, he also detected the component of a certain green tea drink. After detailed laboratory analysis, he concluded that It was concluded that potassium cyanide was mixed in the green tea drink and entered the body of the deceased through the mouth.In addition, when potassium cyanide interacts with carbon dioxide in the air, it will turn into potassium carbonate, thereby reducing the toxicity. However, through the analysis of the potassium cyanide in the body of the deceased, it is found that its purity is relatively high. It is believed that the poison should be newly purchased, and The storage period is relatively short.

After learning of this situation, Yaoshun quickly notified the scouts outside the island to conduct a comprehensive investigation of all places where potassium cyanide can be purchased, especially the units and shops that have newly purchased goods recently. Naturally, it couldn't be better, and at this stage, it is still uncertain whether Lu Yonglin committed suicide or homicide, so whether he has bought cyanide should also be investigated.

However, since cyanide is widely used in industry and easily flows into the hands of individuals, Yao and Shun did not have much hope for the emergence of this clue, and could only investigate it as an auxiliary clue. It would be best to find out some situations.

"The time of Lu Yonglin's death was between 1:2 and [-]:[-] in the afternoon. Before that, he had lunch in a restaurant and ate alone, which means that the mysterious woman should have died after he finished eating. I just met him, and then the two went to the beach together, and this woman should be the last person who had contact with Lu Yonglin. What is the relationship between Lu Yonglin and this woman? Why did he obediently run to the beach at noon? What about the beach? Could it be the woman among the three men and one woman who ate with him that night?"

Yao Shun quickly and simply sorted out the clues obtained at this stage in his mind. There were many questions, and all the questions seemed to be concentrated on that mysterious woman. From this point of view, only by finding her first can we solve all the problems. However, the key issue is that this mysterious woman has very good anti-reconnaissance capabilities, and she is well disguised. So far, she has not revealed too many clues that are not good for her. This also makes finding her a major problem at present.

Although the identity and whereabouts of this woman are a mystery, from another perspective, her mystery is also a key clue, because if she is really related to Lu Yonglin's death, then it is obvious that she planned it long ago. Otherwise, it is impossible to deliberately disguise oneself so well that no clues are left behind.

At the same time, Liao Fang, the wife of the deceased Lu Yonglin, had also arrived on the island. Yao and Shun temporarily put aside their doubts and accompanied Liao Fang to the morgue to identify the corpse.

In the morgue, Lu Yonglin's body was covered by a white cloth. When the forensic doctor lifted the white cloth, Liao Fang just leaned forward and glanced impatiently, then nodded expressionlessly without saying a word. During the whole process, she There was no surprise, no sadness, as if that cold corpse had nothing to do with her. This was completely unlike the reaction a wife should have when she saw her husband's corpse, and her indifferent attitude was evident from the moment she entered the morgue. She kept it all the time, and then she turned and left the morgue without looking back.

In the reception room of the police station, Liao Fang sat very calmly, as if nothing had happened, which made Yao and Shun a little suspicious of her, but thinking about it again, what if Lu Yonglin died? It really has something to do with Liao Fang. It stands to reason that Liao Fang should have covered up some things, such as crying and shedding a few tears when she saw the corpse, but she didn't show any of these things, which seemed a bit unreasonable.

Another thing is also very strange, in such a hot summer, Liao Fang is actually wearing long clothes and trousers, wrapping herself tightly, which seems to be somewhat similar to the dress of the mysterious woman provided by the person in charge of the beach similar to.

After a moment of silence, Liao Fang spoke first. She seemed to guess what Yao Shun was thinking, so she asked, "Officer, do you suspect that I have something to do with Lu Yonglin's death?"

"Yes, from the time you identified the dead body until now, I haven't seen any sadness in you, which is not what a wife should behave at all. And you just asked me if I doubted you and Lu Yonglin You even call him by his first name, so I suspect that there should be problems in your relationship as a husband and wife. Although we are not yet sure whether his death was suicide or homicide, in terms of your unreasonable behavior Come and see, you are worthy of suspicion." Yao Shun replied bluntly.

"You don't have to doubt it. It's not a secret that the relationship between Lu Yonglin and I is at odds. You only need to conduct a little investigation to find out. So I don't need to hide it, let alone pretend to be sad in front of you." Liao Fang replied very calmly, and after a pause, she continued: "You suspect that I killed him because of the disagreement between husband and wife, I can understand, because before he died, I did think of many ways to kill him , poisoning, setting fire, turning on gas, causing car accidents, and even buying murder, but after I calm down, I don’t want to do it anymore, because if I kill him, I will also pay for my own life, for such Men aren't worth it at all."
