The outcome is already determined, just like everyone will die and cannot be changed. - Mr. Chang.
It's evening.
In the conference room of the Chengnan Criminal Investigation Detachment, members of CSY and the Criminal Investigation Detachment were all here, conducting an investigation, summary, analysis and discussion on the murder of Cao Sizhe.
The deceased, Cao Sizhe, male, 33 years old, was from H City. His father, Cao Defa, was the third-in-command of the Shiyang City Industrial and Commercial Bureau, and his mother, Pei Suxue, was the founder of a certain company. His family was well-off and his living conditions were very good.
Cao Sizhe's academic performance has been good since he was a child. He and Shen Fang were once neighbors. Maybe his parents were busy with work and belonged to education. Cao Sizhe has been a very proud person since he was a child. He looks down on those peers whose families are worse than his own and whose academic performance is worse than his own.
Many of his classmates and even some teachers were looked down upon by him.
Cao Sizhe is very handsome. Because he comes from a good family and always dresses well, he is the envy of his classmates. Many students like to fawn over him, and some like him. Of course, some people hate him. Cao Sizhe's pride is not only
Pride in words and actions, but the kind of arrogance from the heart. He looks down on anyone who is worse than him. Anyone who can become friends with Cao Sizhe is undoubtedly the same as him, either from a good family background or from a poor family.
His academic performance is better than his.
No matter when he was in school or in life, Cao Sizhe gave people the impression of being aloof and arrogant, not the kind of deliberate aloofness. In the eyes of adults and elders, this is a sign of talent, but in the eyes of his peers, this is
A show of arrogance will make people very unhappy, but there is nothing they can do about it.
After graduating from college, Cao Sizhe went abroad to study for postgraduate studies and continued his studies. According to the current investigation, Cao Sizhe performed very well during the years he studied abroad. He obtained double doctorate degrees and was still in a Fortune 500 company.
Having worked in several companies, Cao Sizhe earned a lot of money over the years.
Cao Sizhe's private life is not that extravagant, but it is not simple either. Whether at home or abroad, he is very clear about entertainment venues such as bars, nightclubs, and clubs. Of course, in this era,
These are normal things. Cao Sizhe has been in love, and more than once, his girlfriends include Chinese and foreign girls. However, each relationship does not last long. The reason is that he looks down on these women.
, I feel that they are vulgar and not in the same world as me.
He has been in countless relationships and changed girlfriends one after another, but Cao Sizhe has always had an ideal girlfriend in his heart, and that is Shen Fang.
It may be due to childhood feelings, or they may have been neighbors. In short, Cao Sizhe has been pursuing Shen Fang over the years, but unfortunately, he has not received much response.
In the first few years when he went abroad, Cao Sizhe had many girlfriends. As to whether they were truly in love or just playing for fun, it is unknown and unimportant. Since a few years ago, Cao Sizhe has stopped dating. It seems that
To wait for someone, and that person is Shen Fang.
This time, Cao Sizhe returned to China to resolve a life-long matter. Shen Fang was already thirty-one years old, not yet married, and had no boyfriend. Cao Sizhe had also been single in the past few years. It just so happened that he had already obtained double doctorate degrees.
, my job is very stable and my income is very high. I feel it is the right time to express my love.
During the May Day holiday, Cao Sizhe and Shen Fang had a blind date, but Xu Lang interfered, causing the affair to fall through.
When Fan Xian was reporting these situations, he paused and looked at Xu Lang. His eyes were very strange and complicated, and the meaning was self-evident.
Xu Lang briefly explained this, but it seemed to have no effect, so Xu Lang stopped explaining.
Maybe Cao Sizhe learned about the true relationship between Xu Lang and Shen Fang afterward, and felt that he still had a chance, so he decided to stay in China, quit his high-paying job abroad, and came to S city to start a business.
Cao Sizhe started quickly and established the company very quickly. In just one month, Cao Sizhe established himself in City S and became familiar with many businessmen. Of course, this has a lot to do with his family background.
Cao Sizhe disappeared on the night of June 6th after attending Zhang Lei's son's 100-day drinking party. This can be proven by all the records filed by the police.
According to Chen Zhuo, Cao Sizhe's driver, after the banquet, Cao Sizhe originally planned to go home. However, after getting in the car, he received a call, got out of the car temporarily, and left alone. The driver did not know where Cao Sizhe went.
Lu Xing immediately retrieved the surveillance video near the hotel on June 6th and confirmed this.
Cao Sizhe left the hotel by car. After passing a traffic light, Cao Sizhe got out of the car and walked towards a street.
I don't know if it was God's will or a coincidence, but the surveillance camera on that street happened to be broken during those few days and was being repaired. Naturally, it did not take any pictures of Cao Sizhe after he entered the street. Cao Sizhe was not seen at the other exits of the street.
Obviously, Cao Sizhe disappeared in this street.
This street is Nanchang Street. It is not a bustling street. There are many shops next to it. However, they are all selling various daily necessities or hardware. Most of the shops do not have monitoring equipment installed. Su Liangde took people from the Criminal Investigation Detachment there.
I visited it again and the result was the same as before
A visit to the police station yielded the same result: no one noticed Cao Sizhe.
Although the visit yielded no results, judging from Cao Sizhe's route of action, Cao Sizhe disappeared on Nanchang Street.
During the period when Cao Sizhe disappeared, no one saw Cao Sizhe in nightclubs and other entertainment venues, and his mobile phone was turned off. Twenty-four hours after his disappearance, Cao Defa chose to call the police. The police investigated and found nothing unusual.
His parents believed that Cao Sizhe had been kidnapped. However, before Cao Sizhe's body was discovered, there was no extortion call from the kidnapper, and on the night when Cao Sizhe disappeared, Nanchang Street was as normal as ever, with nothing unusual.
After receiving this information, everyone at the meeting made the following analysis of Cao Sizhe's murder.
First, Cao Sizhe was kidnapped, and the murderer's purpose was to extort ransom. Cao Sizhe may have stayed abroad for a long time, refused to cooperate with the kidnappers, or even angered the kidnappers, and was eventually killed by the kidnappers in a rage.
.
Second, it was Cao Sizhe's enemies who did this to vent their anger.
Third, passion killing may be when Cao Sizhe met the person who asked him to meet, and the two parties had a dispute over something, and in the end the other party impulsively killed Cao Sizhe.
Fourth, the robbery that Cao Sizhe encountered was considered manslaughter.
Fifth, the murder was caused by love. It may be that Cao Sizhe had an unclear relationship with a woman abroad. After Cao Sizhe returned to China, the other party held a grudge and carried out a revenge killing. It may also be an ex-girlfriend or an ex-girlfriend of Cao Sizhe who was in China.
The object of his crush killed Cao Sizhe after his confession was rejected.
Sixth, the murderer was Sun Wenyao's student, and his purpose was to complete the last of Sun Wenyao's seven murders, and to provoke the police, CSY, and Xu Lang.
There are six possibilities, but the first possibility has been basically ruled out during the preliminary investigation. After all, the main purpose of kidnapping and extortion is for money, and Cao Sizhe was able to do it in just one month.
, has established a foothold in City S, and its financial resources must be very strong, and it is being targeted by interested people. What's more, Cao Sizhe's mother is also an entrepreneur, and his father is the third-in-command of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. The family must have a lot of money.
, Kidnapping Cao Sizhe and extorting money is a good choice. However, the other party did not make a blackmail call or take any other actions. Cao Sizhe is now killed, which is obviously not in line with the kidnapper's usual practice.
The second possibility is also very small. Although Cao Sizhe is a very conceited person, many people dislike him, hate him, and even hate him. However, Cao Sizhe has been studying abroad for almost ten years and rarely returns to his country.
The hatred has slowly cooled down with the passage of time. Now, Cao Sizhe has only been back for a month, who can he offend?
However, judging from the police's investigation of Cao Sizhe's investment in City S this month, it is true that he has offended many people in the business world. However, what businessmen pursue is profit. Killing people just because their profits are damaged does not seem to be appropriate.
possible.
The fourth possibility is also unlikely. On the night Cao Sizhe disappeared, there were no similar cases on Nanchang Street and several nearby streets, so this possibility can be ruled out.
Killings of passion, killings out of love, and the last seven deadly sins are the most likely.
As for which possibility it is, there are a few things to investigate first.
First, who was the person who called Cao Sizhe on the night of June 6th? What is his relationship with Cao Sizhe? Are they a boy or a girl? Knowing a little bit about it will be of great help in explaining why Cao Sizhe disappeared.
Second, investigate Cao Sizhe's love history, mainly to investigate Cao Sizhe's ex-girlfriend, to see if there is any foreign woman who has followed Cao Sizhe back to China. If there is, find her and investigate her. If not, find out who has a close relationship with Cao Sizhe.
Start with women. After all, women may do a lot of crazy things when they are in love, especially for the sake of love.
Third, focus on investigating Sun Wenyao's students, especially those who are still under surveillance for the time being. In addition, we must also investigate the members of the 'Master Chang' organization to see if any members of the organization have appeared recently.
In fact, compared to the first two possibilities, most people think that Sun Wenyao's student is the most likely to commit the crime.
Cao Sizhe is dead. No matter how great his academic qualifications were during his lifetime, how excellent his work ability was, and no matter what the status of his parents were, what should be investigated still needs to be investigated, such as Cao Sizhe's interpersonal network, such as Cao Sizhe's relationship history,
For example, Cao Sizhe's personal financial situation, etc., all need to be investigated, and this also takes time.
The meeting was very long. In addition to the initial reports of each member on their respective investigations, most of the time was spent discussing the motive for Cao Sizhe's murder. In the end, after some discussion, it was decided to proceed according to the previous murder investigation process, except
In addition to investigating Cao Sizhe's personal situation, we also need to investigate the situation of Cao Sizhe's parents. In addition, we need to find out how Cao Sizhe disappeared on Nanchang Street, what he did that night, and who he met.
With these directions in mind, everyone began to divide tasks and start work.
At the meeting, Xu Lang didn't express many opinions. It was mainly discussed by members of CSY and members of the criminal investigation detachment. In the end, Xu Lang just determined the directions of these investigations.
Since Xu Lang returned to CSY, everyone has gradually become accustomed to Xu Lang's changes. However, after the meeting, when everyone should get off work and rest, Xu Lang stayed in the conference room.
"Brother Lang, what do you think of this case?" Ding Haoqiong asked, looking at the silent Xu Lang.
Hong Bin did not leave. He also looked at Xu Lang, waiting for Xu Lang to express his opinion.
Xu Lang came to his senses and did not immediately give his opinion. Instead, he looked at Ding Haoqiong and Hong Bin and asked, "What do you think?"
After Ding Haoqiong and Hong Bin looked at each other, Hong Bin took the lead and said: "Based on the situation at the scene, I think Cao Sizhe's murder was most likely done by Sun Wenyao's students."
Xu Lang did not speak, but turned his head to look at Ding Haoqiong to see what he was thinking.
Ding Haoqiong nodded first, agreeing with Hong Bin's view, and then added: "However, copycat crimes are not ruled out. After all, whether it is a murder symbol or Sun Wenyao's previous murder pattern, many people know about it."
Xu Lang nodded and said: "There is a high possibility that the murderer is Sun Wenyao's student. However, according to the feedback from the Special Intelligence Bureau, Sun Wenyao's students are all under surveillance, and most of them are not in S city.
And during the period between Cao Sizhe's disappearance and his murder, none of these people came to S City, and there were not many people who stayed in S City, and there was no time to commit crimes, so..."
"So, if the murderer is really Sun Wenyao's student, then this person may have been secretly trained by Sun Wenyao like Lu Xiujie." Ding Haoqiong continued.
Xu Lang nodded and said: "This is very likely. However, the question is how many students did Sun Wenyao secretly train? Besides Ren Xue and Lu Xiujie, who else was there? One or two? Or more? We
We don’t know yet, and it’s also unclear whether the murderer is Sun Wenyao’s student, so the case will be very troublesome.”
Ding Haoqiong and Hong Bin looked at each other and nodded with serious expressions.
Indeed, whether the murderer is a student of Sun Wenyao or someone is imitating the crime, his identity is not clear. What Xu Lang and the others have to do is to find relevant clues from other aspects to lock in the identity of the murderer.
.
The conference room fell into silence for a while as Xu Lang and the others fell silent.
"What was Sun Wenyao's purpose in committing the Seven Deadly Sins?" Hong Bin suddenly asked.
Xu Lang and Ding Haoqiong looked at each other and said nothing.
In fact, this issue has been discussed by CSY during this period. From the first Yang Rongwei case to the present, CSY has not yet figured out what was the motive of Sun Wenyao's crime. Although the police have mastered the rules of his crime,
Seven cases and seven deaths were not directly related to Sun Wenyao. It seemed that he was just killing people randomly.
Seven cases, seven original sins, and seven different modus operandi. Judging from his modus operandi, Sun Wenyao seemed to be punishing these dead people, but why did he do this?
To safeguard justice? Or to satisfy his pleasure of killing?
None of this seems possible. If so, what is Sun Wenyao's motive and purpose for committing the crime?
Sun Wenyao died. Before he died, Xu Lang met him and the two had a conversation. However, Sun Wenyao did not give an explanation or answer, and Lu Xiujie did not give an answer. In other words, he himself did not know the answer.
The purpose of Lu Xiujie's case seems to be solely for revenge killing. If the murderer who killed Cao Sizhe was also a student of Sun Wenyao, then was he also doing this for revenge killing?
In fact, if you want to determine whether Cao Sizhe was killed by Sun Wenyao or someone from the 'Master Chang' organization, you only need to figure out Sun Wenyao's motive and purpose of committing the crime. However, it is because this mystery has not been solved that Cao Sizhe's case has fallen into disarray.
into a deadlock.
In addition, Xu Lang also discovered differences in the case of Cao Sizhe's murder from the previous six cases.
First, the changes in the scene where the body was dumped. In the past six cases, whether it was the five cases committed by Sun Wenyao or the case committed by Lu Xiujie, the place where they chose to dump the body was easily discovered. Yang Rongwei discovered
The street where the body is found, Chen Qiumin's hotel, the roof of Zou Renjiang's new building, the park where Qin Liang is, the rooftop of the Life Newspaper, and the room of the Hyatt Hotel. It is easy to be discovered if corpses are dumped in these places, and they
The purpose seems to be to let the police discover it and conduct an investigation.
The place where Cao Sizhe's body was dumped was very different. The site was very remote. Except for a small group of people, few people would go there. If Liu Mingxuan and Wang Hongzhen hadn't gone fishing there, it would have taken a long time for Cao Sizhe's body to be discovered.
Time, and at that time, it is unknown what will become of Cao Sizhe's body.
If you want to kill people according to Sun Wenyao's killing rules and purposes, then Cao Sizhe's body should be dumped in a place where it is easy for others to find it, but in a remote bay. If the body is discovered very late, then the murder symbol number 7 is estimated to be
will cease to exist, and the words left to Xu Lang may also be blown away by the sea breeze. In this case, what is the use of the murder symbols and messages left by the murderer?
