Chapter 239: A Complex Web of Relationships

The Yinglu City Detective Team has been following up on this closed-room murder case for nearly half a year.

Although the case was too bizarre and the evidence at the crime scene did not support Huihui and Tang Muqi's crime, the Yinglu City Detective Team spent much less energy on them in the later stage.

However, this does not mean that the Yinglu City Detective Team's ability to investigate and collect evidence is not good.

On the contrary, in this regard, it is relatively easy for each detective team to conduct in-depth investigations into the backgrounds of some people within its jurisdiction.

The first feedback was the investigation results on Yu Huihui.

"Team Leader Chen," the person in charge of this work is Ma Tao, deputy captain of the Yinglu City Detective Team.

"We found important clues when investigating the surveillance video of the Haozaila Hotel."

Click.

The projection is played.

The surveillance of the Haozaila Hotel was originally a monthly cycle, covering the surveillance.

But by chance, at the end of July last year, they changed their computer.

The original hard drive was just saved.

The video was taken on July 19.

"Duan Zhongxin went to the Hao Zai Lai restaurant for dinner on July 19."

"Because he drank a little, he flirted with Yu Huihui during the meal and almost got into a fight."

In the video, Duan Zhongxin said something when Yu Huihui brought the dishes over.

Yu Huihui raised her hand and slapped him.

Immediately afterwards, Duan Zhongxin stood up and was about to hit Yu Huihui, but was stopped by the waiter who rushed over.

Afterwards, several people who were eating with him also stepped forward to pull them apart.

"Team leader Chen," Ma Tao pointed at the man in the video: "This man is the owner of the restaurant, Zhao Youqian."

In the video, it can be seen that after Duan Zhongxin sat down cursing, Zhao Youqian came forward and drank a glass of wine with Duan Zhongxin and others.

Half an hour later, Duan Zhongxin and others left.

This situation was something that the Yinglu City Detective Team had not grasped before.

Yu Huihui actually had such a feud with Duan Zhongxin.

So, did Yu Huihui have a motive for committing the crime?

Chen Yan shook his head in his heart.

In the video, Yu Huihui looked quite aggressive.

Moreover, after the conflict with Duan Zhongxin, she didn't seem to care at all.

She continued to drink with the guests at the table at the door.

Would such a woman want to kill someone just because someone teased her for a few words?

What's more, Yu Huihui slapped Duan Zhongxin at that time.

"What's the situation with Zhao Youqian?"

Pause the video, Chen Yan's eyes focus on Zhao Youqian who is drinking with Duan Zhongxin.

"This person is Yu Huihui's brother-in-law. Yu Huihui came to work in the park just to meet her brother-in-law."

"Moreover," Ma Tao pointed to Yu Huihui in the video: "We just found out something when we were investigating."

"Oh? What's going on?"

"The waiters and chefs in the hotel all said that Yu Huihui and Zhao Youqian were having an affair."

Chen Yan was slightly surprised: "Yu Huihui's sister doesn't know?"

"Yu Huihui's sister is Yu Rongrong. She takes care of her children in the city and doesn't usually go to the hotel."

"So, she probably doesn't know."

"Check Zhao Youqian's information, especially whether he has an improper relationship with other women."

Ma Tao nodded: "Yes."

Duan Zhongxin went to Hao Zai Lai Hotel a month before the incident.

Is this a coincidence?

Will Yu Huihui have the idea of ​​killing people because of this?

No decisive judgment can be made at present.

But at least something that was not discovered before was discovered.

An hour later, the information in charge of investigating Tang Muqi was also fed back.

"Team leader Chen, Tang Muqi only came to the park to work as a security guard in January this year."

The person in charge of investigating Tang Muqi is Jiang Lin, the captain of the first squad of the Yinglu City Detective Team.

"He is a fellow villager of Zhang Baoshan. At the beginning of the year, Zhang Baoshan introduced him to work as a security guard."

"This person is usually honest and often works night shifts."

"He has a good relationship with all the security guards."

"He doesn't smoke or drink. He usually stays in the dormitory after get off work."

"His wife cooks in the factory area. She was also introduced by Zhang Baoshan."

"But," Jiang Lin paused: "Several security guards we visited said that Tang Muqi and Zhang Baoshan don't actually have a good relationship."

Hmm?

"They don't have a good relationship?"

"Why?"

It shouldn't be.

In theory, Tang Muqi and his wife's jobs were introduced by Zhang Baoshan.

The couple should thank Zhang Baoshan.

How could the relationship between the two sides not be good?

"It's like this," Jiang Lin handed a stack of materials to Chen Yan: "According to Tang Muqi's wife, they lent Zhang Baoshan 5,000 yuan in May this year."

"It was agreed that Zhang Baoshan would return them in June."

"But, until now, the money has not been given to them."

"He also said that this was the agency fee for introducing jobs to them."

"We also asked Zhang Baoshan about this situation."

"It is indeed true."

"Moreover, Zhang Baoshan said that after the Chinese New Year, Tang Muqi and his wife insisted that he find a job for them."

"He also gave a lot of things to find a good job."

"As a result, Tang Muqi and his wife did not show any expression, so Zhang Baoshan came up with such a trick."

The information Jiang Lin brought back was very important.

Zhang Baoshang and Tang Muqi not only knew each other, but also had some grudges.

This is also a situation that has not been discovered before.

According to current clues, survivor Yu Huihui and victim Duan Zhongxin are related.

The reporter Zhang Baoshan and the survivor Tang Muqi are related again.

At present, although these connections cannot be directly related to the case.

However, where there is no direct relationship, it is the most relevant place.

Why these four people?

Why not the other four?

If there is an effect, there must be a cause.

The secret room murder was the effect, and everything happening now is the cause.

…

When Zhao Bing returned to the detective team, it was already noon the next day.

Regarding the investigation of Zhang Baoshan, it was Zhao Bing who was following up.

meeting room.

Zhao Bing began to report the situation.

"Team leader, there is indeed something wrong with this Zhang Baoshan!"

It turned out that Zhang Baoshan was not on patrol duty on the evening of July 27.

He just had to be on duty that night.

However, the security guard on duty with him drank too much.

At 12 o'clock, he went on patrol instead of the security guard.

According to Zhang Baoshan's security guards, Zhang Baoshan can count on one hand the number of times he has gone on patrol since he became the security captain.

So why did he go on patrol that night?

Or go on patrol in place of his subordinates?

"Moreover, the security guard who testified at the time, Zhang Baoshan, had drunk too much that day."

"According to his recollection, Zhang Baoshan was particularly enthusiastic that day."

"Zhang Baoshan bought all the food and drinks that go with the wine."

Zhang Baoshan!

Chen Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.

This Zhang Baoshan...

As the reporter, Zhang Baoshan has many doubts.

The Yinglu City Detective Team originally also spent a lot of energy on Zhang Baoshan.

However, the most fundamental reason for getting rid of suspicion is the testimony of his subordinates.

The records in the file clearly show that the other party determined that Zhang Baoshan lay down on the bed to sleep after returning from patrol.

"This is also the result of our investigation this time."

Zhao Bing handed over a photo: "This is the duty room where Zhang Baoshan and the security guard were drinking and sleeping."

There were two beds in total. The drunk security guard slept on a camp bed inside, while Zhang Baoshan slept outside.

"That night, the security guard woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and saw someone on Zhang Baoshan's bed."

"So, even though the security guard was drunk at the time, the Yinglu City Detective Team still accepted his testimony."

Chen Yan took a look at the resulting materials himself.

After a while, Chen Yan looked at Zhao Bing: "This security guard... do you think there is any problem?"

question?

Zhao Bing knew that Chen Yan was asking the security guard if he was suspected of giving false testimony.

After thinking about it, Zhao Bing shook his head: "This possibility... is unlikely."

Because, when Zhao Bing and the security guard learned about Zhang Baoshan's whereabouts that night, he clearly told the security guard the consequences of giving false testimony.

"However, this security guard didn't show any evasion."

"He said that although he drank too much that day, he could not confirm whether Zhang Baoshan did anything while patrolling."

"But when he woke up at night and went to the toilet, he definitely saw someone on Zhang Baoshan's bed."

That’s true!

Patrolling the factory area takes about an hour.

If Zhang Baoshan really went on patrol, he should have gone out at around 12 o'clock and returned to the duty room at around 1 am.

However, the time when Tang Muqi was knocked unconscious was about 11 o'clock, and the time when Yu Huihui was knocked unconscious was about 11:45.

Although the two of them did not look at the specific time, based on the length of the patrol, Tang Muqi basically determined that when he was knocked unconscious, it was probably half an hour after he went out to patrol.

Yu Huihui was also sure that about ten minutes after she came out of the hotel, she turned around a factory building and was suddenly grabbed tightly by a pair of big hands around her neck, and then she didn't know anything else.

Therefore, judging from this time, if what Zhang Baoshan's subordinate said is true.

Zhang Baoshan indeed had no time to commit the crime.

One is that when Tang Muqi was knocked unconscious and Yu Huihui was knocked unconscious, Zhang Baoshan was still drinking with the security guard.

Another thing is that Zhang Baoshan's patrol time was only one hour. It was difficult to create such a complicated and confusing secret room scene in such a short time.

Could it be that this Zhang Baoshan is really okay?

But why did he buy wine and groceries for his subordinates?

Why do you still patrol for him?
