"Wu Chunhe was tall. The fact that Li Nanfeng wrote Wu Chunhe's 'death notice' proves that there was an old grudge between the two. The grudge was not shallow, otherwise he would not have written a letter to kill him." The police officer made this inference. Shen Xunran did not speak. He continued:
"It is very likely that Li Nanfeng wanted to kill Wu Chunhe, and Wu Chunhe eventually found out, so he took the initiative and killed him!"
"As for the feud between the two, it may be because of the unfair distribution of profits from the 'company' they opened that year."
They both tried to deceive Su's father, but in the end Li Nanfeng only got an old house of the Su family, while Wu Chunhe gained more benefits and became a big man in Wangjin City. Li Nanfeng might not feel comfortable about it.
Su Yi had a motive for committing a crime, and so did Wu Chunhe.
"As for the time of the crime, Wu Chunhe was also missing during the period of Li Nanfeng's death."
When the police officer said this, Shen Xunran remembered that during that period, Wu Chunhe had indeed hidden for a while because of the threat of the "death notices". It was not until after Li Nanfeng's death that Shen Xunran found out that he was the one who wrote those "death notices" that he lifted the threat and became active in the public eye again.
From this perspective, Wu Chunhe did have the motive and time to commit the crime, but Shen Xunran felt something was wrong.
"He framed the Su family and became rich with his windfall, but now he has lost a life. It is clear that he is not a good person. It is entirely possible that he would kill someone who is a threat to him."
Shen Xunran was full of doubts, but now that the case had come to this point and there was one more suspect, he should indeed investigate.
"Check Wu Chunhe and find out where he was hiding and what he was doing when Li Nanfeng was staying at the Paifeng Hotel and the incident happened."
This is such a coincidence. I didn't think about it in this direction at first, but after thinking about it carefully, Shen Xunran felt that there were clues everywhere.
For example, the "death notice" was sent to the police station, which attracted the attention of the police. Several letters were sent in succession, but the police still did not get anything useful. Wu Chunhe was frightened like a frightened bird. Finally, he hid from place to place, and dared not even go home, and dared not tell anyone his whereabouts, for fear that he would be harmed by others by accident.
But it was precisely because of Wu Chunhe's cautiousness that he became suspicious and his whereabouts were unknown on the night of the murder.
When Shen Xunran was first investigating the "death notice", she had just hit a dead end. The handwriting of Su Yi, whom she suspected at the time, was different from that on the "death notice". Then Li Nanfeng died in the Paifeng Hotel, and she happened to find the signature of Li Nanfeng when he checked into the hotel. The handwriting was the same as on the "death notice".
It was as if there was a hand in the dark that made this game perfect and was guiding her on a 'bright path'.
"Hopefully, I'm thinking too much..."
Shen Xunran muttered to himself, looking through the long corridor to the end of the corner.
There was a glass window there, and the sunlight shone through the window, but it seemed to only illuminate the surface and could hardly penetrate into the depths of the corridor.
Her expression was somewhat complicated, with fatigue that was difficult to conceal on her face, and there was a sense of helplessness in her sigh.
The case was investigated in a different direction, and indeed, some clues were soon found.
After what happened to the Su family, Wu Chunhe and Li Nanfeng each benefited. With the money he earned from "starting the company" that year, Wu Chunhe's business grew bigger and bigger, and his wealth became more and more abundant.
Ever since Wu Chunhe and Li Nanfeng set up a trap for the Su family that resulted in a death, the two sides have had little contact and have been living their own lives. However, a few months ago, Li Nanfeng began to actively try to contact Wu Chunhe and asked him for several sums of money, which were not small amounts.
From this point of view, the financial dispute between the two did increase the motivation for both sides to kill each other, but Shen Xunran felt something was wrong.
After the Su family got into trouble, Li Nanfeng and Wu Chunhe had no contact for more than ten or twenty years. Why did Li Nanfeng suddenly find Wu Chunhe to ask for money at this time
Shen Xunran thought about the contact between Su Yi and Li Nanfeng at this time that the police had discovered a few days ago. It shouldn't be a coincidence.
Su Yi's shadow can be seen everywhere in these two cases. This woman came with hatred, and she had no intention of hiding this fact. Everything she did, said and acted was worth careful scrutiny.
For example, she doesn't use perfume, perhaps because she doesn't want to leave a unique scent in a certain occasion. This is a very smart approach and does not leave any clues for the police.
When she was summoned by the police for the second time, the police collected her fingerprints and saliva, intending to compare them after the criminal forensics department came up with clues.
Most of the crime scene was destroyed by water, and some things that should have been useful were contaminated and could no longer be used as evidence in court.
At the same time, news came from the Forensic Department that no fingerprints or DNA related to Su Yi were found at the scene. However, after several days of sleepless searching, the staff finally found a short hair with a hair follicle at the crime scene. After DNA identification, it was determined that it did not belong to Li Nanfeng, but to another male.
It was initially determined that the hair was pulled off with great force during a fight, and it is very likely that the owner of the hair was the murderer of Li Nanfeng.
At this point, the case had almost nothing to do with Su Yi, and the police turned their investigation direction to tracking down the owner of the hair.
As a criminal suspect in the Li Nanfeng case, Wu Chunhe is also being investigated by the police.
The Wangjin Corps summoned him and asked him to leave relevant information and wait for the results.
If nothing unexpected happened, everyone felt that this throat-cutting case that shocked Wangjin would probably be solved.
Everyone was immersed in joy, but Shen Xunran still felt something was wrong. She had been handling cases for many years and was experienced and had extremely keen observation skills. She instinctively felt that there was something wrong.
Some doubts have not been resolved. Wu Chunhe insisted that he did not kill anyone. With a lawyer present, he insisted on not saying a word more.
The comparison results came out quickly, and the DNA data extracted from the hair found at the crime scene of the Paifeng Hotel was confirmed to be consistent with Wu Chunhe.
Considering Wu Chunhe's previous special "relationship" with Li Nanfeng, he was blackmailed and threatened by Li Nanfeng, and he was extremely annoyed, so he did have reason to kill to silence him.
During the two days when Li Nanfeng had the accident, Wu Chunhe was in the shadow of the "death notice" and was hiding everywhere, not even daring to contact his family, so there was no strong proof of his alibi that night.
There was a bodyguard beside him who said that Wu Chunhe stayed overnight in a villa that night, but the bodyguard was employed by him. The judge might not accept these statements in court, especially when Wu Chunhe had a motive and there was a hair that was enough to prove that he had been to the scene. It is very likely that he will be found guilty in the end, and because of the bad impact of the case, the possibility of the death penalty is very high.
The case has almost been decided, and on the surface, there is no possibility of overturning the verdict. Shen Xunran thought of Wu Chunhe's "death notice" and couldn't help but feel horrified.
Wu Chunhe was not killed by the murderer who sent the "death notice", but he could still die at the hands of the law.
Assuming that he was wronged as he said, then the person who "killed" him behind the scenes had carefully set a trap for him and used the law to bring him to justice!
Li Nanfeng, who wrote the "death notice", died, but Wu Chunhe still could not escape the threat of the "death notice".
Shen Xunran realized this and appealed to her superiors, saying that there were still doubts in the case and that there were many things she had not figured out.
It is possible that Wu Chunhe is not a good person, but in this murder case, it is very likely that he was wrongly accused.
But now the evidence is conclusive. The hair that tested the DNA is the key to nailing Wu Chunhe. The case has almost been decided and there is no possibility of appeal.
Shen Xunran's protest made her boss very angry. He scolded her righteously and told her to go home and rest for two days.
The police announced that the case of the exhaust hotel was officially closed. The person who killed Li Nanfeng was Wu Chunhe, a well-known entrepreneur in Wangjin City. Once the news was announced, it caused a great sensation.
In a teahouse called "Qingfeng Xu Lai" in Wangjin City, Shen Xunran invited Su Yi to come over and sit down.
This was the first time the two women met outside the police station, and it should also be the last time the two women met.
The private rooms of the teahouse are located on the bank of the Yangtze River. The decoration of the private rooms is quite elegant, with the characteristics of ancient Chinese charm.
The window was open, and the curtain that was hanging down to block the wind had been pulled open. The wind blew slowly into the room. The water on the tea table had boiled and was making a gurgling sound.
"Are you leaving Wangjin?" She said that she would not leave Wangjin until the matter was settled.
Now that things are over, as she wished, she will probably leave.
Shen Xunran looked at the woman sitting cross-legged across the table. She had a leisurely and calm look, as if all the burdens on her shoulders and in her mind had been put down, and she felt relaxed.
On the contrary, I should be in a mess.
She always felt that there was something wrong with Wu Chunhe's case. Even though her boss asked her to take a break for a while, she was investigating it privately, but she was powerless to do anything.
When she was at the police station, she was restricted everywhere, not to mention her rest time, which was even more restricted. After two days of investigation, she found nothing, and the police had already announced the case to the public, proving that there was almost no possibility of overturning the case.
Shen Xunran felt a little ironic when asking the question. She tried her best to move the corners of her mouth to reveal a smile, but she failed after trying several times. Finally, the corners of her mouth drooped downwards.
"Yes." Su Yi nodded. Her hair was tied up unnaturally. The texture of her hair gave it an unreal feel. The most important thing was that she didn't make any attempt to hide it. She just showed it to Shen Xunran, as if he was mocking her.
Her hair should be fake. When I first met her, she still had real hair of good quality. When I met her again, she was summoned because of Li Nanfeng's death. When she met Shen Xunran, she was obviously wearing a wig.
"After all, your wish has come true, and your enemies have been 'killed'. You don't have much to wish for anymore."
Shen Xunran sneered, with a fire burning in his heart but nowhere to vent it.
Su Yi just smiled and didn't say much about her accusation.
"You are wearing a wig, right?" Shen Xunran took a deep breath and suddenly asked, "I don't spray perfume to avoid leaving any smell, and I shave my hair to avoid leaving any clues at the scene."
Carefully planned, linked together, step by step, to force the enemy into a desperate situation.
"I've seen the autopsy results of Li Nanfeng. On the day he checked into the Paifeng Hotel, he ate the wrong dish from the restaurant. It just so happened that Li Nanfeng was allergic to one of the seasonings in the dish, but he didn't notice it at first. It wasn't until he went back to the room to take a bath that the hot steam exacerbated his reaction, so he had already lost the ability to resist before his throat was cut."
This point can refute the conclusion of the police at the time that given Li Nanfeng's physical condition, it would be difficult for a man to easily subdue him and slit his throat.
In fact, under the circumstances at that time, it was entirely possible for a woman to kill Li Nanfeng, who had lost his ability to resist.
The Su family was a neighbor of Li Nanfeng back then, so it was not difficult for them to know what Li Nanfeng was allergic to.
As for why Li Nanfeng went to the Paifeng Hotel, how Wu Chunhe's hair appeared at the crime scene, and how she asked Li Nanfeng to write a "death notice", many mysteries remain with the death of Li Nanfeng.
"It's you who wants to kill Wu Chunhe, isn't it?"
Shen Xunran clenched his fists, "It was you who killed someone in Paifeng Hotel, wasn't it?"
Her whole body was tense, and she strained her legs as she sat cross-legged on the couch, propping up her upper body, revealing her uncontrollable anger.
The water boiled, Su Yi filled the kettle with hot water, and the room was filled with the aroma of tea. She heard Shen Xunran's accusation, but she remained calm and did not stop pouring water. Amid the sound of the hot water pouring into the kettle, she asked with a smile:
"Where's the evidence?"
The kettle was one-third full. She put it down, washed the tea leaves and refilled it, pouring a cup for Shen Xunran and herself. After doing all this, she withdrew her hand and smiled at Shen Xunran:
"Officer Shen, you said I killed someone, where is the evidence?"
The hot water in the kettle was boiling, adding a bit of warmth to the cold weather. She picked up the teacup, looked at Shen Xunran with a smile, and took a sip gently:
“The police are always so incompetent.”
"More than ten years ago, my father was framed by Wu Chunhe, and the police were powerless to do anything. Now someone has died and two cases have occurred, but the police are still helpless." She reached out and pushed the crooked wig on her head, smiling brightly. She did not show any contempt or disdain, but her expression was full of teasing towards Shen Xunran, which was much more discouraging than if she had revealed it openly.
"But you come to suspect a weak woman like me."
"Weak woman?"
Her words made Shen Xunran want to laugh, but she couldn't laugh no matter what. She tried a few times but couldn't move the corners of her mouth, so she finally gave up:
"A weak woman like you is much scarier than many strong and powerful men!"
She has worked for many years, arrested countless criminals, solved many cases, and dealt with many criminals, but she has never felt so powerless. (To be continued)
