I'm just a trainee police officer. I don't really want to solve the case.

Chapter 131 The Doubts of the Year

At that time, Qi Lei was still a trainee police officer, and the master assigned to him by the team was Xing Jiang.

Xing Jiang took good care of him. Seeing that he had no relatives in Jingzhong City, he would take him home for dinner during the holidays. His master's wife Ji Lan was gentle and virtuous, and his daughter Xing Lei was innocent and cute. The whole family treated him like a relative.

In his heart, Xing Jiang is like a father and a brother.

More than half a month before the accident, he noticed that his master was in a bad mood, as if he had something heavy on his mind. He, who usually didn't smoke much, started puffing away at cigarettes, smoking one cigarette after another.

At first he didn't care, because as criminal police, many people do the same. When they encounter problems that they can't solve, they like to smoke, one to refresh themselves, and the other to relax their mood.

But later on, the master not only smoked but also started drinking.

One time, she was drinking alone in a bar. Before she passed out, she called him and asked him to pick her up, and also told him not to tell his master's wife.

That night he brought his master back to his dormitory. His master was drunk and unconscious, and he only kept muttering: "Why? Why?"

After waking up the next day, he asked his master, but his master refused to say anything. He only said that it was related to the case and told him not to ask more questions. He always thought that his master had encountered difficulties when investigating the case at hand.

But after his master's death, when he recalled the abnormal days before his master's death, he felt that his master's death was not that simple.

"Captain, what case do you think Xing Jiang was investigating at the time?"

"I originally thought that Master was investigating the cases at hand. He had two cases at the time, one was the Taoyuan corpse burial case, and the other was the campus couple suicide case. But both cases were solved later. They were not very complicated cases. Master could not have been killed because of these two cases."

"Captain, I always feel that Xing Jiang was not killed by the robber. If he had a conflict with the robber, the robber could have just killed him directly. Why would he cut his tendons and torture him to death? It is difficult for ordinary people to grasp the degree of not killing him after being stabbed dozens of times, which shows that the murderer is an expert.

Captain, don't you think Xing Jiang's death is strange? Does it seem like he was killed to silence him or out of revenge? "

In fact, Qi Lei thought the same as Su Xiaoxiao. He felt that this was not a simple robbery and murder case. Which robber would kill people like this? !

As for silencing someone by killing them, he had thought about it, but would he use such a troublesome method to do so? Wouldn't it be easier to kill with just one knife? The simpler the method of killing, the harder it would be to detect.

Therefore, this way of killing is more like a revenge killing.

If it is a vendetta, it will be very difficult to investigate. As criminal police, they have offended so many people. Not only will they be hated by criminals, but if they don't handle the case well, the families of the victims will also bear a grudge against them. Xing Jiang is an old criminal policeman who has handled at least a hundred cases, so it is very difficult to investigate. Sometimes they have offended people without even knowing it.

"There were many suspicious points in this case. I was a trainee police officer at the time, and the case was handled by the old captain Shen Gang.

The first suspicious point was the person who reported the case. The police officer who received the call said that the person who reported the case was a woman who was probably an eyewitness to the robbery. There were ten minutes between her reporting the case and the police arriving. Normally, the suspect had enough time to escape, but when the police arrived, the suspect was still there. When he saw them coming, he fled in the direction of the abandoned construction site.

If Xu Yajun did not lie, it seemed that the suspect was waiting for the police to come. If this was a trap, it was not known whether the target was ordinary police officers or specific people.

Later we wanted to find the reporter to find out what she had seen, but after checking, we found out that the number she used was a virtual Internet number. We couldn't trace the source at all, so this reporter was very suspicious.

The second suspicious point is the place where Xing Jiang died. He was chasing after an abandoned construction site, but his body was found in another ruin. The two locations were more than ten kilometers apart, and there were no surveillance cameras in either place. However, his whereabouts were not found in the surveillance cameras along the way. How did he get there? It is impossible for him to teleport there.

Therefore, it is impossible to conclude whether the person who killed him is the same person he was chasing.”

Qi Lei paused for a moment, looked at Su Xiaoxiao's hesitant expression, and continued speaking.

"I know you want to say that the third suspect is Xu Yajun. He said everything, and there are no other witnesses.

However, we verified the time of receiving the alarm and dispatching the police, as well as the time he called 120 and the time 120 arrived, and they were all consistent with what Xu Yajun said. Moreover, other team members came to support afterwards, and Xu Yajun continued to search for my master with them.

The ruins where my master was found was the first scene, not where the body was dumped after death, so he did not have time to commit the crime.

I didn't doubt him eight years ago, but now that I think about it, he is indeed suspicious, but at least he didn't do it himself. Someone else did it, so we can't focus on him."

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. Qi Lei answered all the questions and doubts she wanted to ask. If Xing Jiang's case was not a system task triggered in the sanatorium, she might not have found any clues at all. But now at least one thing is certain, Xing Jiang's death is related to the unknown secret of the sanatorium, but it is hard to say how much connection there is.

Seeing Su Xiaoxiao frowning and thinking, Qi Lei asked, "Do you think Xing Jiang's case is related to the sanatorium?"

Su Xiaoxiao had to admire Qi Lei's sharpness; he guessed it without her saying anything.

"It's just a hunch. I always feel that Xing Jiang's death might be because he discovered some secrets, and these secrets are fatal to some people, so someone set a trap to lure him out and then brutally killed him.

Oh, Captain, I suddenly thought of something. You just said that killing someone to silence them shouldn't be so troublesome, but what if Xing Jiang had some evidence in his hands? Would that explain why the murderer tortured him so much?

Captain, think about it quickly, did your master leave anything for you?"

Qi Lei shook his head. The incident happened so suddenly that his master didn't even have time to leave a word. He was also the one who sorted out his master's belongings and didn't find anything suspicious.

"Are your master's relics still there?"

"I don't know. Master's belongings were later taken away by Master's wife."

"Captain, when is it convenient for you, can you take me to meet your master's wife? I can ask her if your master left anything special behind."

"Okay, I'll make an appointment with Master's wife. I haven't seen him for a long time."

There is still no clue in Xing Jiang's case, but Xiao Yu has already found the information of the owner of the car last night.
