The physical evidence has long been collected at Chen Xuexians ho, and a series of evidence has been taken back to the headquarters for research.
Lu Junchi organized all the photos and on-site investigation materials, and handed the footage to the Voice Laboratory of the Forensic Identification Center.
Currently, voiceprint recognition is internationally recognized as a thod of identity identification.
A persons voice is associated with the soft palate, tongue, lip shape, and teeth.
Voiceprints are like fingerprints; even if soone intentionally imitates another persons speech or lowers their voice, the voiceprints still exhibit inherent characteristics.
The Major Cris Unit finally received the comparison results during the lunch break. Through voiceprint analysis, it was determined that the voice in the video belonged to Qiu Jiarong.
While several people in the office were working overti, Su Hui was the only one lying on the sofa.
The office was filled with the aroma of food during lunchti, but Su Hui only ate a little before expressing his fatigue. He lay down for a while and eventually fell silent. Lu Junchi walked over to take a look, and at that mont, Su Hui was sound asleep.
Curled up, he used a cushion as a pillow, and Lu Junchi covered him with a piece of clothing. Su Hui seed to have sensed sothing, as his body moved and he buried his face in the clothes, revealing only his long eyelashes and a small mole at the corner of his eye.
Lu Junchi made a hushing gesture to the others, and in order not to disturb him, they continued discussing the case online.
Zheng Bai frowned as he looked at the results and typed, Qiu Jiarong, the sowhat introverted programr? He doesnt seem like a killer at all.
Qiao Ze typed, Killers dont have the words killer written on their faces. Just look at his fighting style; hes definitely not afraid.
But this recording didnt capture the entire process, the fight that followed. It doesnt prove that he is the killer, Qu Ming turned to Lu Junchi and said, Should we call him in for questioning?
Lu Junchi pressed a line of text, Lets call him in for questioning first.
Just as they were discussing this, the phone on the table suddenly rang. In the quiet office, the ringing of the phone was sowhat abrupt.
Trying not to wake up Su Hui, Xia Mingxi hurriedly went over to answer it. After listening for a few sentences, she looked up and whispered to Lu Junchi, Captain Lu, the police hotline received a report from a middle-aged woman. She said she has information about the case. She claims to be Qiu Jiarongs mother.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Ze jumped up from his chair but kept his hand on the keyboard as he typed, I didnt expect that. Does she have any clues?
Qu Ming typed, Its hard to say. Could it be that this mother is sacrificing her own child for the greater good?
In that case, it seed they needed to hear what this mother had to say before calling Qiu Jiarong in.
Lu Junchi closed the file in his hand and typed, Qiao Ze, bring her to the interrogation room. Ill be there shortly.
Qiao Ze imdiately got up and made an OK gesture towards Lu Junchi.
Lu Junchi walked over to the sofa and called Su Hui softly, Professor Su, its ti to wake up.
Su Hui had already been awakened by the phone ringing earlier, and now he opened his eyes and squinted like a cat.
Lu Junchi had a strange feeling. He didnt feel like he had two cats; he felt like he had three. And the one in front of him was the most beautiful, precious, and difficult to handle.
Su Hui curled up his body slightly, and after a mont, he rubbed his eyes and let go of the cushion he was leaning on. He asked, What was that phone call just now? Is there progress in the case?
Lu Junchi obediently reported to him, Qiu Jiarongs mother has arrived. Were going to ask her so questions.
Su Hui nodded, and then he got up after taking a short rest. Lu Junchi poured him a cup of hot water and went to the interrogation room himself.
When Su Hui arrived, Lu Junchi had already brought Qiao Ze inside for questioning.
Qu Ming called out, Professor Su.
Su Hui nodded and sat down beside Qu Ming.
Inside the interrogation room, Lu Junchi looked at the middle-aged woman in her fifties. Her complexion was sowhat pale, her eyelids were swollen, and her perd hair was slightly ssy. The woman had heavy dark circles under her eyes, indicating that she hadnt been sleeping well lately.
It was her first ti coming to the police station, and facing two police officers, her hands were trembling, and her expression was not natural. She kept clutching a bag tightly in her arms, showing signs of extre nervousness.
Lu Junchi glanced at the registration form. This womans na was Qin Yiyun, fifty-six years old, residing in Huadu, and currently retired.
Qiao Ze finished verifying the information and asked her, Auntie, can you tell us why you ca to the headquarters today?
Qin Yiyun sobbed, tears streaming down her face, and she covered her face with her hands. It took a lot of courage to co here I I really didnt expect that my own son would end up like this because of a woman
Qiao Ze comforted her, Auntie, please take your ti and tell us.
Qin Yiyun wiped the corner of her eyes and began to speak, I suspect that my son has killed soone
Then she explained, You see, my son Qiu Jiarong he has always been shy and didnt find a partner even as he grew older. When he turned twenty-five, my husband and I started to worry. We arranged various blind dates for him. Then, a few months ago, my son suddenly told that he was in a relationship.
Qin Yiyuns words were a bit scattered, and she wiped away her tears before continuing, At first, I was very happy, and both my husband and I were very supportive. We even thought about when he would bring the girl ho to et us. But I didnt expect that it would be the beginning of a nightmare. Since then, he started acting strangely Always ntioning that girl, praising her cooking and how virtuous she is. At the beginning, we thought it was just because he was deeply in love, so it seed normal.
But as ti went on, I felt more and more like he was obsessed. He beca careless at work, often skipped als at ho, and when he did co back, he would just stare at his phone. If the other person sent him a ssage, he would be as happy as a child. But once the other person ignored him, he would beco restless. Then one day, he ca back with bruises all over his face, saying he got into a fight outside
That was probably the incident captured by the surveillance caras, the fight between Qiu Jiarong and Shao Changqing.
At first, I didnt know the reason behind it, but after a while, he admitted to that he got into a fight because of that woman. Since then, he beca even more restless and often didnt co ho.
Then Qin Yiyun continued, At that ti, I advised him that there are many won in the world, and if he couldnt get along with that one, he could find another. But he said he wanted that woman. One ti, after drinking a little, he cried and said to , Mom, if she doesnt want anymore, I dont want to live. I was terrified when I heard that and quickly tried to console him.
Lu Junchi frowned as he listened. He recalled what Chen Xuexian had said earlier. He felt that this man had been firmly controlled by Chen Xuexian, and perhaps he had been manipulated without realizing it.
Then, Qin Yiyun said, clenching her teeth before continuing, I have two properties at ho. I live in one, and the other one is prepared as a marital ho for my son. He lives there alone, and every now and then, I go to clean up the house for him. Just recently, during one of my visits, I discovered so bloodstains on his clothes and shoes They were very small, and he probably didnt notice I I felt extrely anxious when I saw them.
At this point, she tightened her grip on the cloth bundle in her arms. I hesitated for a long ti about whether to discuss this with my husband. In the end, I decided to co alone
Lu Junchi and Qiao Ze were both shocked when they heard this. Auntie, did you bring the clothes with you? Lu Junchi asked.
I brought them, Qin Yiyun replied, and she took out a checked shirt for n from her bag and handed it to Lu Junchi.
Lu Junchi examined it and indeed found so inconspicuous bloodstains on the cuffs of the shirt. He thanked
her, Thank you, Auntie. We will conduct a comparative analysis through forensic testing.
If the bloodstains on this shirt belonged to Guo Chengfeng, it would be important evidence.
It was not easy for a mother to expose her own flesh and blood. Qin Yiyuns actions were comndable.
Qiao Ze asked, Auntie, does Qiu Jiarong know that you ca here today?
Qin Yiyun nodded, He shouldnt know. I ca here without telling him
Lu Junchi said, Auntie, what you did is right. We will take these clues you ntioned seriously and monitor his behavior.
Upon hearing this, Su Hui, who was observing from the observation room, furrowed his brow slightly.
Qiu Jiarong is still preparing to commit a cri. Will this slaughter continue?
Who will be his target?
Last nights light rain swept away the gloom of the city. As it was almost ti to finish work, the office beca quiet.
This is a high-end office building located in the center of Huadu City. Shao Changqing sat at his desk on the twenty-second floor, occupying the largest workspace in the office, which befit his position as the financial director.
It was already past nine in the evening when Shao Changqing finally took out his dinner.
It was a plate of pork dumplings, beautifully made with thin skin, generous filling, and a tempting aroma.
Shao Changqing calmly went to the pantry and used the microwave to heat up the dumplings. He brought his own vinegar and poured it into a plastic plate, then picked up a dumpling and took a bite.
The delicious aroma of the at filled his mouth as he chewed satisfactorily, unable to help but squint his eyes.
The Human Resources Departnt was next door, and the HR director was also working late. At this hour, everyone was hungry. He walked over and said, Hey, Shao, what are you eating?
Dumplings, Shao Changqing replied.
The HR director said, It slls so good.
Shao Changqing proudly said, Naturally, my wife made them.
The HR director laughed, Youve only been dating for a short while, and your wife already makes them. My red envelope hasnt been given yet, but my wife already got on board. He swallowed and asked, Whats the filling?
Pork and mushrooms.
The delicious combination of juicy at and the unique aroma of mushrooms made them especially tasty.
Usually, when it reached this point in the conversation, the other person would offer a taste, but Shao Changqing showed no intention of sharing. The HR director hadnt had breakfast yet and couldnt resist the sll, so he reluctantly said, Can I have one?
Upon hearing this, Shao Changqing shook his head, covered the plate of dumplings with the lid, and appeared reluctant, You can eat anything else, but my wifes dumplings are off-limits.
The HR director exclaid, Stingy! and returned to his own desk.
Shao Changqing was enjoying his dumplings when suddenly the phone on his desk rang. These days, the office landline was basically just for show, and he didnt expect anyone to call, especially at this late hour while working overti.
Shao Changqing picked up the phone, made a few affirmative sounds, and the more he listened, the more serious his expression beca. Alright, I understand. He didnt bother to continue working, starting to pack up his things.
After packing up, Shao Changqing looked at the dumplings in front of him, still reluctant. He hurriedly finished eating them, then quickly got up to leave.
In Huadu at night, it was already past ten oclock. The weather had turned cold, and it was a bit stuffy today, with an excessive amount of water vapor, as if an autumn rain was brewing.
After finishing overti, Shao Changqing took the last bus from the subway station. As he walked on the road, when he passed a slightly secluded alley, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him. A figure caught up to him.
Who? Shao Changqing turned back, a bit cautious. The person behind him was about 1.78 ters tall, dressed in black with a hood and a mask covering their face.
The person lowered their mask, revealing a mans faceit was Qiu Jiarong.
Now, the mans face was pale, completely devoid of his usual refined and reserved deanor, replaced by a sinister and ferocious expression.
Shao Changqing looked at him, full of vigilance and caution. Youre the one who fought with last ti Qiu, what do you want?
I want to ask about her, Qiu Jiarongs eyes glanced around. The surroundings were pitch black, and his face beca grim. I know you must have hidden her! Give her back to !
The place fell into an eerie silence, with only occasional ows of stray cats heard by the roadside. The air felt thick, as if it was about to solidify.
Shao Changqing shook his head. I dont know where she is. She hasnt contacted for a long ti. The last ti she was with you!
Qiu Jiarong paused for a mont. Nonsense! Youre talking nonsense! Its clearly you who took her away!
The police are also looking for her, Shao Changqing replied, touching his nose. I guess its because you did sothing bad that caused her to run away, right? His expression revealed a hint of mockery. Didnt you always claim that she loved you more? Why are you asking where she is now? If you ca to today just for this, I really have no idea.
I dont believe your nonsense! Where did you take her? Qiu Jiarongs face beca hysterical, and he pulled out a knife from another pocket.
Shao Changqing looked at him, a smirk forming on his lips. Madman, she wouldnt want to be with a madman like you.
Those words stung Qiu Jiarong, and he held the knife, stabbing towards Shao Changqing.
It was only at this mont that Shao Changqing beca frightened, and he quickly dodged, shouting, Help!
He tried to escape, but his legs gave way, and he stumbled and fell to the ground.
Qiu Jiarong swung the knife towards Shao Changqing.
As Shao Changqing fell, the knife missed its target, making a swooshing sound as it sliced through the air.
