On January 20, the suspect Jia was taken to the bureau for questioning. When he was taken away from the company, Dong Xiao confessed, "What should be said, what should not be said!", "Before the lawyer comes. Don't say anything."
Lin Qiupu replied, "Mr. Dong, you have been sitting on this sofa for a while."
Secretary Jia is just a body burner. He is the key to uncovering the truth of the case. To prevent Dong Xiao from escaping or doing other things during this period, Lin Qiupu left two policemen to stare at him.
Secretary Jia, who was taken to the interrogation room, was extremely nervous. The lawyer whispered to him, "What is the police asking you, don't answer directly, tell me."
Secretary Jia nodded desperately.
"Suspect, name, occupation." Lin Qiupu asked.
The lawyer replied: "My client's name is Jia Xu, and his profession is the secretary to the president of Zhuoyuan Company."
"I think you are the closest person to Dong Xiao. You must know all about him..."
"Please don't make such a hint!" When the lawyer interrupted Lin Qiupu, Lin Qiupu thought, this lawyer was probably also greeted by Dong Xiao in advance, in order to control Secretary Jia's mouth.
So I went straight to the subject, "What did you do on the evening of December 30, answer truthfully."
Secretary Jia spoke to the lawyer in a low voice, and the lawyer said, "My client said, handle official affairs normally."
"You are now in handcuffs. This is an interrogation. If we have no evidence, it is impossible to arrest you. You'd better not lie... On the evening of December 30, a reporter named Cao Man disappeared in your company. And we have a video in hand, I believe you have seen it too."
"Cao Man didn't get the right to interview at all!" Secretary Jia said.
The lawyer reminded him not to speak arbitrarily. Secretary Jia said in a cold sweat, "It doesn't matter, I have a sense of measure." Then he said to Lin Qiupu: "Every item on Mr. Dong's schedule is under my hands. He has not been interviewed for nearly half a year, so It’s impossible for Cao Man to appear in the company, let alone at night. Mr. Dong goes to Fengyi Pavilion every night. He buys Su Chan's villa in the suburbs."
Lin Qiupu thought for a while and said, "Even if Cao Man didn't obtain the right to interview, he sneaked in, but he did disappear in your company."
"Who told you that, that person was lying, I didn't know Cao Man at all."
"Then who was Dong Xiao who killed Dong Xiao on the evening of December 30!?" Lin Qiupu raised his voice.
"Mr. Dong, he..."
"Ah!" The lawyer interrupted him and reminded Lin Qiupu, "Please show evidence."
Lin Qiupu sneered and showed the evidence they found. The body of Cao Man found in the suburbs and the hose with Secretary Jia’s DNA. Hearing that Secretary Jia was sweating here, Lin Qiupu attacked further, "You used the hose you held in your mouth. It’s not a coincidence that the gasoline in the corpse is the same as the one found on the body."
"Police officer, I want to say..."
Lin Qiupu interrupted the lawyer, "I know that you were not the one who killed. You were instructed to deal with the corpse. It is not good for you to cover up now. Do you want to carry the crime for Dong Xiao?"
Secretary Jia was sweating coldly. Regardless of the lawyer’s dissuasion, he tremblingly said: "Maybe Cao Man has indeed been here because... Because although Mr. Dong has a schedule, he rarely follows that. Everything depends on his mood. Mr. Dong has always been self-willed. Several important clients wanted to see him, but Su Chan called and said that he was uncomfortable and bored alone. Mr. Dong went to see her immediately and threw the client to the vice president to receive him. He spoiled Su Chan. It's just too spoiled."
"Did Dong Xiao met Cao Man on the evening of December 30?"
"I was not in the company at the time, and then I received a call and hurried away. When I went..."
"Secretary Jia!" the lawyer scolded.
"Are you here to represent the case? You are still acting as Dong Xiao's eyeliner!" Lin Qiupu unceremoniously exposed. The lawyer's face was confused. Lin Qiupu continued: "Your client didn't kill, and keeping silent now won't help him. He can only save himself if he tells the truth. Do you want to dump him in the fire pit? How much did Dong Xiao give you?"
The lawyer stopped speaking, and Secretary Jia continued to say: "The person I went to the office was completely unrecognizable. Mr. Dong was all sweaty. He took off his blood-stained suit. While eating lasagna, I saw something on the ground. A trophy, stained with blood and... ground meat."
"What time is it?"
"At around nine o'clock in the evening on December 30, I had already gone home and was called by a phone call. Mr. Dong told me that I always rushed there immediately, never asking the reason... At that time, he said to me while eating, call I took care of this, as if asking me to throw a piece of trash. I was scared, but I did so. Another secretary and I carried the body into the car and went to the outskirts to dig a hole first. I was worried that I would just bury it. Evidence will be left, what should I do if there are wild dogs or something nearby? So I got some gasoline from the gas tank, burned the body, and buried it after it was burnt."
The lawyer increased the amount with his hand and sighed. His task was completely over. He stood up and said, "I want to go out."
"Why, let me know? Sit down!" Lin Qiupu scolded, and continued to say to Secretary Jia, "Who is the one with you?"
After asking all the details of the case, Secretary Jia was temporarily detained. Lin Qiupu asked Lao Zhang to hold the lawyer to prevent him from reporting the letter. It was not too late. Lin Qiupu immediately arranged for someone to arrest Dong Xiao. When passing through the corridor, Peng Sijue called him and Chen Shi was also there. In the laboratory, Peng Sijue said: "I have some findings, look at this picture..."
The photo is a part of the hose. The saliva enzyme on it was revealed by the reagent. Lin Qiupu didn't understand, and said, "What's wrong? Is there anything abnormal?"
"If the hose is in the mouth, there will be lip wrinkles and a small amount of lip skin on it, but these are not there. The saliva is distributed very evenly. It does not look like a person left it, but it is like someone who collected Jia. After your saliva, apply it on it."
Chen Shi said: "Peng and I found the evidence to be unreliable, and we re-examined it again. I was still wondering how the DNA hose was found on the spot."
"Perjury?" Lin Qiupu frowned.
"It is estimated that the perjury made by the person who exposed this case is for us to find Secretary Jia... What was the result of the trial?"
"Very smoothly, he did all the tricks. Now as long as we find the murder weapon, I think we can be convicted... Regardless of the origin of this evidence, anyway, it has guided us to find the truth, let's arrest Dong Xiao!"
On the way, Chen Shi listened to the outline of the case and said: "According to Jia, there is only him and another secretary at the scene, and only the secretary knows the details. Could it be him?"
"Didn't you guess that the person who exposed the case was Lu Qi?"
"Is that what I guessed? You said it in the beginning!"
"In any case, first control Dong Xiao, so as not to have more dreams at night, I believe the evidence will only increase."
Chen Shi thought to himself that this "perjury" was like the first breath of gas drawn from the fuel tank. Although it was fake, it made the whole case go smoothly. The person who exposed the case seemed extremely smart...
