Maybe Qu Mingcong came at the wrong time. He Xiaohui had just drank the cold medicine, and now that the medicine was taking effect, she felt drowsy and couldn't even stand steady.
He helped the person to the bed to rest. Seeing that He Xiaohui quickly fell into a deep sleep, he felt that he had come at the right time.
Qu Mingcong looked around. The house was an old apartment with one bedroom and one living room. The living room was very small, only big enough for a dining table and two chairs. The kitchen was connected to a small balcony that was only big enough for two people. In order to save indoor space, a gas stove was installed.
On the small balcony.
In comparison, the bedroom is slightly larger, with pink curtains and decorative paintings. There are several plush dolls sitting on the bedside. It can be seen that He Xiaohui has carefully decorated it after moving here.
Qu Mingcong took out a pair of rubber gloves from his backpack, put them on his hands, and then began a simple search in the house.
He looked at the knives in the kitchen and the clothes in the closet. He went to the washing machine and opened the lid. He saw a few pairs of unwashed underwear inside and couldn't help but close the lid angrily.
"What are you looking for?" Qiao Yueying asked.
"I was thinking that maybe we could find a murder weapon or something..." Qu Mingcong walked out of the bathroom and checked the trash can again, "We just announced online that we would investigate the source of those letters, and then something happened to Tong Yuan. The police will definitely
Connecting the two, as long as the identity of the suspect He Xiaohui is confirmed, she will definitely be brought to the police station for interrogation. If she is really the murderer, is it possible that there are some traces left at home? For example, blood-stained clothes, tissues, or gloves
such as……"
Not finding anything in the trash can, he walked around to the door, squatted down, reached out and poked the doormat.
"It's so clean..." Qu Mingcong murmured, "There are no blood stains and no other suspicious traces. This He Xiaohui should not be the murderer. If so, her ability to deal with the aftermath can be considered sophisticated."
"Let me look at her phone, look at her phone, look at her phone~" Qiao Yueying couldn't wait, "Look for her phone quickly."
"I know." Qu Mingcong took off his rubber gloves and stuffed them back into his backpack.
He Xiaohui's mobile phone was placed on the bedside to charge. He gently took one of He Xiaohui's hands, unlocked it with his fingerprint, and then turned on the Bluetooth function of the phone.
"Bluetooth is on, is there any display on your end?" he asked in a low voice.
Qiao Yueying was silent.
Qu Mingcong estimated that she had already entered.
She didn't know how long she would stay on He Xiaohui's phone, always looking for something to kill time. Qu Mingcong put down the phone and picked up a book from the desk to read - "Modern Baking Collection".
Baking?
He was not interested in this, so he changed it to another book - "Starting the Road to Baking".
It seems that He Xiaohui is very interested in baking?
Qu Mingcong was thoughtful. He remembered that he had seen an oven in the kitchen just now. He was a little concerned and turned back to the kitchen to check.
Compared with other kitchen utensils in the kitchen, the oven is obviously newer. I guess I just bought it not long ago.
Qu Mingcong speculated that He Xiaohui would not have been learning baking for too long, because if he was not a novice, those books would not be on the table and read every day.
He opened the oven door and found some cookie crumbs on the baking paper inside.
It must be that cookies have been baked in the past two days, and He Xiaohui happened to be sick today, so she didn't have time to clean them up.
Qu Mingcong closed the oven door again and couldn't help thinking: If a person planned to murder someone, would he still be in the mood to bake cookies?
With him, He Xiaohui can almost rule out suspicion.
But if Tong Yuan was not killed by He Xiaohui, then a new question arises: Who has any motive for the murder?
Since the video was exposed, Tong Yuan has been shunned by her agency and has been on the bench for two months. In the past two months, she can be said to have followed the rules and been honest. She is afraid that entertainment reporters will catch her in any way, so she is not too cautious.
You may develop grudges with others during this period.
Murder cases may seem complicated, but in fact the reasons are just the following: for money, for love, and for revenge.
There are only a small number of perverts who truly enjoy killing people, so generally investigating cases based on their motives is the most efficient way.
Now that He Xiaohui, who had the most motive, has been eliminated as a suspect, the case has become a bit more difficult in Qu Mingcong's opinion.
"Could it be an accidental murder..." He frowned and thought.
This is not impossible. The news once reported a murder case of a homeless man on the street. The cause was a quarrel with a passerby, and then the two got into a scuffle. In the process, the homeless man accidentally killed someone.
I wonder if Tong Yuan has encountered a similar situation. If that is the case, it would be too unlucky.
Qu Mingcong thought again that Sun Bingxin had said that two suspects were being interrogated, and perhaps the results had been obtained now, so there was no need for him to speculate aimlessly here.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Qiao Yueying calling herself on the phone: "Qu Mingcong, Qu Mingcong..."
Qu Mingcong returned to the bedroom and glanced at He Xiaohui. She was sleeping deeply and was not awakened at all.
"Have you finished checking?" He picked up his phone and opened the photo album. As always, Qiao Yueying filled it with a bunch of screenshots.
"The letter was written by He Xiaohui." Qiao Yueying finished her work and said decisively, "I checked her online shopping bills in the past two years. There is absolutely no mistake. The envelope and letter paper all match, and the color is exactly the same."
"Okay, we can go back and hand in the work." Qu Mingcong was very satisfied with her efficiency. "I can basically eliminate He Xiaohui's suspicion here. Let's go to the criminal investigation team first, and then contact Tong Yuan's agent."
"Are we going to leave like this?" Qiao Yueying asked, "We haven't asked her anything yet."
Qu Mingcong glanced at the sleeping woman on the bed and sighed, "She has a fever, what can I ask? Call the colleague who has a good relationship with her and see if they can be called to take care of her."
He called the girl who had previously provided He Xiaohui's contact information, explained the whole story, and then left He Xiaohui's home.
Air tickets are very expensive, and he hopes that he can be as efficient as possible on this trip and solve all the things that need to be solved.
After leaving the community, I immediately took a taxi to see Sun Bingxin.
Because I talked on the phone in the car, I just said hello to the security guard and went in smoothly.
Qu Mingcong originally planned to go directly to Sun Bingxin's office. Just as he was about to go upstairs, he saw a tall and burly man walking in front of him. He looked very familiar.
He was stunned for a moment, and his steps couldn't help but slow down.
The man opposite was also stunned and blurted out in surprise: "Qu Mingcong? Why are you here?!"
Qu Mingcong looked at the other person up and down, his expression half-smiling but not smiling, "I should be asking you this, right, Zou Kai? Why are you here?"
Zou Kai looked slightly embarrassed and frowned impatiently, "...I, I am here, of course I have work to do."
"What happened to your face?" Qu Mingcong looked at the gauze on his face, "I almost didn't recognize it. Who hit you?"
Zou Kai said angrily: "Who can beat me?! Stop trying to catch people here! If there's nothing wrong, just stay out of the way!"
A police officer suddenly walked out of the office next to him and waved to Zou Kai: "Hey! Come here and sign. You missed a place on the confession and didn't sign it."
