Chapter 275
After the preliminary autopsy, Xiao Lou came to the following conclusions:
First, the time of the murder was determined to be around 4:30 in the afternoon . The crime was committed immediately after they left . It was probably because the murderer was afraid of being caught by the police . She must’ve run away after committing the crime . How did she escape? At present, they still needed to find the community property management and check the vehicle access monitoring .
Secondly, the murderer had a soft spot for ice . She covered the body with ice which seemed to have a strange meaning, much like a ‘curse’ . She killed both Lin Yiyan and Xu Kai and froze the corpses after killing them before venting her anger with the cut marks . Currently, the person with the greatest motivation and suspicion was Qiao Xuening .
However, which one was the real Qiao Xuening?
Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou glanced at each other, a bit confused in their hearts . Yu Hanjiang spoke solemnly, “I will do a search of the entire villa . I don’t believe that she has left no clues . ”
The two men took the town’s police officers and searched from the bas.e.m.e.nt to the rooftop on the top floor . All the fingerprints, hair and a plum blossom shaped earring found on the top floor were sealed by Xiao Lou in a sterile bag and brought back .
That night, Xiao Lou temporarily borrowed the town’s forensic appraisal centre to check the evidence collected while Yu Hanjiang went to the property management to check the monitoring in detail .
The two men were busy separately and didn’t meet at the police station until 3 o’clock in the morning . Xiao Lou pulled out all the identification results for Yu Hanjiang to see . “The long hair found in the bathtub belongs to a girl called Lin Dandan . ”
Li Xinyang hurriedly said, “I know this Lin Dandan . She is one of the wine girls working at our town’s KTV . She looks very beautiful and has long hair . Xu Kai seems to have been dating her for a while . ”
Then Xiao Lou asked, “What about Liu Qi and Yue Qingqing?”
Li Xinyang froze for a moment before replying, “They are all Xu Kai’s girlfriends . ”
He smiled bitterly and rubbed his temples . Then he gave a detailed introduction to Xu Kai’s love history in recent years .
According to Li Xinyang, Xu Kai was still unmarried . He was over 30 years old and handsome . He was also the big boss of an Internet cafe and two hot pot restaurants . He was especially rich and had become the ‘local bully . ’
Xu Kai was single and the number of girls chasing him was enough to form a long line . He basically changed girlfriends in the first half of the year and would give the girls a lot of money when he broke up with them . Therefore, his private life might be chaotic but there should be no girlfriends who wanted to kill him because he broke up with her .
Li Xinyang said, “Xu Kai’s reputation isn’t good but he is generous when dealing with his lovers . Many people know that he will give a lot of money when breaking up with his girlfriend . The girl will take his money and leave happily . Professor Xiao, the three girls you mentioned are all girlfriends he has been with in the last year . ”
Xiao Lou murmured, “It seems I guessed right . The hair and fingerprints found in the bas.e.m.e.nt, kitchen and bathtub are all left by Xu Kai’s girlfriend . The earring should also belong to one of them . Obviously, he lets his girlfriends stay over often . ”
Yu Hanjiang frowned slightly . “These people didn’t kill him . ”
Li Xinyang wondered, “Group Leader Yu, how can you determine this?”
Te Ljcpljcu abiv tlw, “Lf lr gfijafv ab j wegvfg kf’gf lcnfralujalcu . Ktf lmf ja atf rmfcf bo atf mglwf jcv atf xliilcu wfatbv jgf fzjmais atf rjwf . Pa lr fnfc atf rjwf wegvfg kfjqbc .

Li Xinyang sighed with relief . “Okay . ”
Yu Hanjiang added, “In addition, check the details of his cousin Zhang Xiaoyu . He is acting very guilty and should be hiding something from us . ”
Li Xinyang nodded . “I understand . ”
Yu Hanjiang patted the young police officer on the shoulder . “You worked hard . Go back first . It is dawn . ”
Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou left the police station and drove back to the hotel together .
They returned to the room at 4 a . m . Yu Hanjiang pinched between his eyebrows and told Xiao Lou, “I watched all the surveillance videos of the community . After the incident occurred at 4:30, there were 30 vehicles entering and exiting the community up to 10:00 p . m . I have recorded all their license plate numbers . In addition, no suspicious person similar to Qiao Xuening was found . ”
Xiao Lou told him, “Get some sleep . We will go to the traffic police tomorrow . ”
The two people slept separately and only got a few hours of sleep before getting up .
The next morning at 7 o’clock, Yu Hanjiang first called Qu Wanyue and told her, “You must keep an eye on Qiao Xuening . Don’t let her run away . Once Xiao Lou and I come back, we can figure out her details . ”
“Don’t worry . I will find an excuse to teach her dance moves and stay with her all day to watch her . ”
Yu Hanjiang hung up and came to the traffic police department to check the information of the cars with Xiao Lou . None of the vehicles leaving the villa area after 4:30 yesterday afternoon were suspicious . All the car owners were residents of this small town and Li Xinyang checked their information in turn . Some went to the supermarket to buy groceries and others went to eat with their family…
All the cars had other pa.s.sengers who could prove the car’s whereabouts . None of them were driven by one person .
Yu Hanjiang touched his chin thoughtfully . “She didn’t drive away? It seems that she is very cautious . She is afraid that we will find her true information by checking the license plate number . It is very likely that she left the villa area on foot . ”
Xiao Lou agreed . “In Lin Yiyan’s case, she drove Lin Yiyan’s car away and her own vehicle couldn’t be found . This time, she didn’t drive . If she left on foot, there is only one exit in the community . A photo should’ve been taken of her, right?”
