Chapter 32 The Amazing Result
Chapter 32 The Amazing Result
The office of the head of the criminal investigation team.
Upon hearing Xu Bin's application, Captain Wen Zheng'an's expression immediately turned serious, a hint of displeasure on his face.
"Xu Bin, what are you doing?"
Do you know what's going on right now?
Our branch office is extremely frugal, stretching every penny. Many cases aren't unsolvable because they can't be solved, but because of insufficient funding, forcing us to put them on hold. And you're asking the bureau for 20,000 yuan for DNA testing on a case that's practically a sure thing? Are you out of your mind?
"Captain Wen, the deceased Li Ailian and her parents only had their blood types matched, but even if they are not biological mother and daughter, the probability of a match is not small. Only DNA testing can make this case airtight."
If the deceased was not Li Ailian, then it means that Liu Jianshe is not the murderer!
Murder is a crime we must be careful about. Flowers may wither and bloom again, but a dead person can never come back. If we make a mistake, it will be a thorn in our side for life, for you, and for me, won't it?
Upon hearing this, Wen Zheng'an adjusted his posture and spoke in a slightly calmer tone, "Tell me your thoughts on this case."
"I also thought that Liu Jianshe was the one who committed the murder, but Wu Song in our team kept saying that Liu Jianshe didn't seem like a murderer, and Liu Jianshe never confessed. His behavior during the interrogation also didn't seem like that of someone who could commit this crime."
Therefore, I believe that Wu Song's later conjecture that Li Ailian might be the mastermind is not without merit. Our entire team also agrees that it is necessary to conduct a DNA test on the deceased to completely rule out this possibility.
"Wu Song?"
"Yes, Captain Wen, you also remember him?" Xu Bin said, "Wang Heng, who committed the crime by imitating the scarecrow, was arrested by him after he took one look and felt something was wrong. There was also that fugitive murderer from Wenzhou. We had a meal together, and he was the one who noticed something was wrong with the chef."
His keen intuition is what supported me in making this application; I chose to trust him this once.
"I'll trust him this once," Wen Zheng'an said, his attitude hardening as he considered Wu Song's record. He then signed the application.
……
Xu Bin's prediction was correct.
No one can afford the consequences of wrongly identifying a murderer in a murder case, so the DNA testing process was given the green light.
But the finance department really couldn't spare any money.
The Third Squadron had no choice but to temporarily cover the cost of the DNA test.
"As the team leader, it's my duty to do this. 5000 yuan," Xu Bin said directly.
"Master, then, then I'll also contribute 5000."
"Wow, that's impressive." Ma Dazhi glanced at Liu Shutong. "You're only an intern, making a few hundred yuan a month. Are you going to ask your family for it?"
"No." Liu Shutong shook her head. "I'll take it from my saved-up New Year's money."
"Whoa!"
Everyone gasped.
The New Year's money can be as much as 5,000 yuan, and that doesn't even seem to be all of it.
Their family's strength is indeed not to be underestimated!
"I want to test my hypothesis with this DNA test, and I'll pay 5000."
"Then I'll put up 5000 too?" Cao Dahua said.
"No way! If the four of you split it, you'll take away all of ours. This case is the team's case, so I have to contribute money too."
"Exactly, only you guys are aware of this!"
After arguing for a long time, they finally decided to do it according to their positions.
Xu Bin, the team leader, receives 4500 yuan.
Cao Dahua, the deputy captain, has a salary of 3500.
The remaining six people each received 2000.
Hand over the money.
Because only the provincial capital has the capability to conduct such testing, and many surrounding provinces don't even have this technology in their provincial capitals.
After paying the fee and submitting the samples, we lined up and began the long wait.
……
10 month 10 number.
More than twenty days after the body was discovered.
Nearly half a month after submitting the DNA test.
The results from the hall are in.
There is no parent-child relationship between the two DNA samples!
boom!
This result came out.
The entire Third Squadron was stunned!
I still feel a lingering fear.
Thankfully, they did a DNA test.
Otherwise, Liu Jianshe would probably really be facing a murder charge.
"Is this... perhaps not even their biological child? For example, maybe they cheated on each other?"
"That's utter nonsense," Cao Dahua laughed and scolded. "We used the DNA from the corpse and the blood of Li Ailian's mother for DNA testing. The child might not be the father's, but have you ever seen a child who isn't the mother's biological child?"
"Yes, yes, I'm stunned! Is it possible that the hospital made a mistake with the initial report?"
"Impossible. Li Ailian's relatives all said that Li Ailian and her father are practically identical, looking very alike. This was confirmed before we even did the DNA test. So, there's only one possibility left: the deceased is not Li Ailian at all!"
If the deceased wasn't Li Ailian, then this case is probably as Wu Song suspected: Li Ailian committed it to get revenge on Liu Jianshe, and the corpse was also murdered by Li Ailian!
"I have a question. Whose body is that?" Liu Shutong asked.
"There's another problem: money!" Wu Song said. "Liu Jianshe's account hasn't seen any large expenditures, and he hasn't noticed any money decreasing at home. Li Ailian definitely doesn't have much money. How did she live after she ran away? Could she have accomplices?"
"This is also the focus of our investigation next. Dazhi Documents, contact all police stations in the city, before and after Li Ailian's disappearance, no..." Thinking that it was a month and a half before someone reported Li Ailian's disappearance, he changed his words and said, "In the past three months, have there been any missing persons reports that match the physical characteristics of a corpse? Compile all of them."
"The rest of us, let's investigate Li Ailian's interpersonal relationships together. Wu Song is right. An ordinary woman who isn't particularly strong, committing murder, digging a pit nearly forty centimeters deep in the mountain, and then dumping the body—she probably has one or more accomplices. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for her to accomplish these things."
After giving instructions on the direction of the investigation, Xu Bin smiled and pointed at Wu Song.
"Xiao Song, you did a great job sticking to your guns this time! If it weren't for you, we would have wronged an innocent person and let the real culprit go unpunished. Your intuition is truly amazing!"
Xu Bin smiled and applauded for Wu Song.
"I thought Wu Song's intuition was wrong this time, but it seems I was wrong. This will make catching murderers much easier in the future. Just let Wu Song take a look at the suspect, and the real culprit will immediately reveal themselves!"
"Brother Song is awesome!"
"Clap clap clap!" The rest of the Third Squadron applauded Wu Song.
"This is just a gut feeling of mine; the main thing is the evidence!" Wu Song stood up and nodded to everyone.
"alright!"
After listening to everyone clapping for more than ten seconds, Xu Bin stopped clapping and said, "Li Ailian's move was brilliant! If it weren't for DNA testing technology, she would have really fooled everyone."
This opponent is a very clever person, but even the cleverest fox is no match for a hunter.
Our Third Squadron must apprehend her and bring her to justice.
Let's get started!
