Chapter 2 - The Sin of Gluttony (2)(2/2)
"No, no, no, what I mean is that after the murderer cut open their stomachs, the things they stuffed into their stomachs were obtained from local materials."
But in fact, Chen Bai is now very worried. The murderer committed the crime so quickly and in such a cruel way. What was he thinking? Why was he so persistent in killing these people?
"Okay, now you hurry up and investigate the social relations of the deceased, and we will go to the crime scene to take a look."
Bai Hongwei had no choice now, so he could only go to the crime scene with Chen Bai to take a look.
"yes!"
Soon only Bai Hongwei, Chen Baidabinzi and Kong Bingxuan were left in the office. Kong Bingxuan came from the back of the office and stood in front of the whiteboard.
"What I have said is all a bunch of nonsense. I admit that I was reckless in arresting you, but I must catch the murderer first!"
After Kong Bingxuan finished speaking, he slammed the office door hard when he turned to leave.
"Okay, I won't get angry with a little girl. After all, it's normal for a person who has received a scholarship for four years to be a little arrogant."
Chen Bai lit a cigarette. Bai Hongwei knew that Chen Bai was a teacher at the Public Security University and Kong Bingxuan just graduated in June this year. He probably knew about Kong Bingxuan!
"Teacher Chen, do you still have any doubts?"
"You're welcome, just call me Chen Bai!"
Chen Bai stood up and came to the whiteboard to carefully look at the photos of the scene.
"Actually, what worries me the most is why the murderer used such a killing method. If he really had a grudge against them, he wouldn't have chosen this method. Moreover, the scene was arranged in such a ritualistic way. It was obvious that the murderer wanted to kill someone.
They have been preparing for a long time."
Chen Bai frowned, Bai Hongwei did not interrupt Chen Bai's thoughts, and just watched from the side.
"Da Binzi, what do you think?"
Chen Bai suddenly turned around and looked at Da Binzi who was standing aside. Da Binzi was stunned and did not expect that Chen Bai would actually ask him.
"Teacher Chen, I...I think..."
"Da Binzi, this is not a classroom. There is no right or wrong. Just say whatever comes to your mind."
Chen Bai smiled, and Da Binzi looked at the two photos of the crime scene on the whiteboard, and it took him a long time to say something.
"I think the murderer's choice of these two people must have been carefully planned. He should be very familiar with these two places."
"Isn't it the same as saying nothing? Since the murderer was deliberately chosen, he would definitely understand the two people's daily routine before taking action!"
Bai Hongwei kicked Da Binzi, but it was Da Binzi's words that gave Chen Bai a flash of inspiration.
"No, this is not nonsense. Maybe the two deceased people were carefully selected by the murderer, but maybe the murderer is someone they knew well. Let's go and take a look at the scene again."
The afternoon in Binhai City is the hottest time. Although the air-conditioning in the car is turned on fully, the three of them always have to get out of the car.
"By the way, why do you say my judgment is incorrect?"
While in the car, Bai Hongwei showed the surveillance camera to Chen Bai, but Chen Bai quickly rejected his suspicion that the murderer was a fisherman.
"It's very simple. It's too arbitrary for you to conclude that the murderer is a fisherman just by relying on a raincoat and a knife. If you want to hide your body shape, you should even hide your gender. Is a wide raincoat the best choice?"
As the three of them came to the scene, although the cordon had been set up long ago, there were still many people watching.
"Let's go! Let's go to that supermarket!"
Chen Bai saw the supermarket diagonally opposite the crime scene and knew that their surveillance came from this supermarket.
"Boss, here are three bottles of water!"
Chen Bai took out three bottles of water from the refrigerator and placed them on the counter. At the counter, a middle-aged man in his forties was wearing headphones and staring at the computer intently.
"boss!"
Chen Bai raised his voice, and the boss finally noticed the three of them.
"Six dollars!"
The boss just glanced at it casually and continued to look at the computer in front of him.
"Boss, I want to ask you something!"
"I don't know, I don't know, I don't know anything!"
The boss seemed very impatient, but when Bai Hongwei took out his ID, the boss immediately changed his face.
"Three police officers, if you have any questions, just ask!"
Chen Bai smiled and asked, pointing to the barbecue restaurant opposite.
"How is your relationship with the boss opposite?"
"I can only say that it's average. He usually comes here to buy a cigarette when he runs out of cigarettes, or sometimes when it's not busy, he comes to my store to buy something and then goes back to drink."
Chen Bai touched his pocket, looked at the boss and said.
"Boss, get a box of Yellow Crane Tower!"
"eighteen!"
Chen Bai paid the money and then asked.
"You're so close, haven't you ever gone to his place to drink?"
The boss shook his head, looking slightly embarrassed.
"Okay, you go out first and I'll talk to the boss alone!"
Chen Bai gave the two of them a look. Although Bai Hongwei was confused, he still pulled Da Binzi out.
"Boss, they are police officers, and I am not a police officer. So, if you have any inconvenience to tell the police, you can tell me, and I will keep it confidential for you."
The boss looked at Chen Bai, obviously not believing what Chen Bai said.
"Boss, I will never lie to you. If I were really a policeman, I could take you back to the police station, right?"
The boss hesitated for a long time and finally spoke.
"Actually, it's not something that I can't talk about. It's just that when you came to investigate before, I lied."
Chen Bai looked at the boss with interest, and the boss slowly spoke under Chen Bai's eyes.
"Actually, Liu Quan is trash. He is very kind to his customers and the people around him, but sometimes he tends to look down on those at the bottom."
"What's the meaning?"
Chen Bai didn't quite understand what the man meant. The man thought for a while and gritted his teeth and said.
"Although it's useless for me to say that everyone is dead, there is one thing that I saw with my own eyes that I will never forget. I remember that it was a month ago. Liu Quan deliberately made things difficult for a food deliveryman, no matter who he was.
No matter how much the delivery boy urges him, Liu Quan deliberately takes his time..."
When Chen Bai went out, Bai Hongwei and Da Binzi were already waiting impatiently.
"How's it going? Did you ask anything?"
Bai Hongwei was a little anxious. After all, Chen Bai himself said that the murderer would definitely take action within three days. Time is money now, and they must race against time.
"It's almost the same, but now I'm not sure whether my guess is correct. Let's go to the second crime scene to have a look."
The three of them got into the car as they talked, but the moment Chen Bai got in the car, he suddenly felt a chill behind him. Chen Bai turned around but found nothing.
"What's wrong?"
"nothing!"
Chen Bai got in the car, Da Binzi started the car and drove away. In the corner, a man riding a battery-powered bicycle wearing yellow short-sleeves and a helmet showed a cold and cruel look.
"Here we are, this is the second crime scene."
Compared with the first crime scene, this place is much more chaotic. Although the personnel structure in the old city is complex, the construction sites near here are all temporary workers, and the mobility of personnel is much higher than at the previous crime scene. Chen Bai and the others exit
Car, Bai Hongwei looked at the people standing around the cordon and said helplessly.
"No matter how many people we put here, it won't work, but fortunately they didn't destroy the crime scene."
When Chen Bai and others walked into the crime scene, Da Binzi asked with some confusion.
"Don't you need to take a look at the first crime scene?"
Chen Bai was a little embarrassed, and Bai Hongwei was also a little confused as to why Chen Bai didn't look at the first crime scene.
"Actually, I've already seen the first scene, otherwise I wouldn't have been caught by that newcomer of yours."
"What!"
Only then did Bai Hongwei realize that Chen Bai was caught by Kong Bingxuan because he trespassed on the crime scene.
"Okay, okay, let's take a look here quickly!"
Chen Bai quickly changed the subject. Bai Hongwei knew that it was useless to care about these things at this time.
"Is this what it looked like when you arrived at the scene?"
Chen Bai marked the mark on the ground and turned around to ask Bai Hongwei behind him.
