Chapter 202 The Unexpected Murderer
Wu Kaiyue seemed a little surprised by Chen Yan's arrival.
"Hello, Officer Chen!"
Wu Kaiyue was still polite: "Is there any news about the theft case in our house?"
News?
Chen Yan shook his head.
Chen Yan had no prejudice against Wu Kaiyue.
His relationship with Hu Yuefei and his wife, as well as his raising an illegitimate child in Unit 2, had nothing to do with Chen Yan.
However, Chen Yan was still quite emotional.
This Wu Kaiyue was really good.
He was able to hide it from Hu Yuefei for two years, and even arranged another woman and child in another house in his family, right next to him.
This is really not something that ordinary people can do.
"Mr. Wu, we are fully investigating the theft case in your house, and we have made great progress."
Chen Yan and Zhang Chaoyang sat opposite Wu Kaiyue: "We came here this time to learn some other situations."
"Oh, please ask, I will cooperate."
Wu Kaiyue nodded, his tone was very sincere.
"Where were you at 12 o'clock last night?"
12 o'clock last night?
Wu Kaiyue slightly differed: "My life is more regular."
"Every night after running, I go home."
Wu Kaiyue stood up and poured tea for Chen Yan and Zhang Chaoyang: "At 12 o'clock, I have taken a shower and am ready to rest."
"Officer Chen... Did something happen?"
Chen Yan did not answer Wu Kaiyue's words.
Before coming to Wu Kaiyue's company, Chen Yan asked Zhang Chaoyang to contact the property company of the Imperial Family Community.
Let them cooperate to review the surveillance video of last night.
Wu Kaiyue did not lie.
At 7:53 last night, Wu Kaiyue appeared in the elevator on time.
However, unlike in the past, this time Wu Kaiyue did not go to Unit 2 to see the child and the woman.
But he really went for a run.
From the time Wu Kaiyue entered the elevator to 10:38.
Wu Kaiyue's figure has been within the surveillance shooting range of the community.
Then, Wu Kaiyue returned to his and Hu Yuefei's house.
When he appeared again, it was already 7:56 the next morning.
In other words, Wu Kaiyue did not go anywhere last night.
He was telling the truth.
But, it was because he told the truth that something was wrong.
You know, in the past, Wu Kaiyue's so-called running was spent in the next unit every night.
But he didn't last night.
"Mr. Wu, I think you misunderstood me."
"According to your usual schedule, you go to the community to run around 8 o'clock every night, until after 10 o'clock, and then go home."
Chen Yan paused: "But, I think you know better than me what you actually do when you run every day."
"So... why didn't you go to Unit 2 802 last night?"
"Where did Li Ruirui go?"
Li Ruirui!
Boom!
Chen Yan's words, like a heavy hammer, hit Wu Kaiyue's chest hard.
This man's face suddenly turned pale, and he no longer had the calmness just now.
"You...how do you know...Ruirui..."
Zhang Chaoyang took over the conversation and looked at Wu Kaiyue: "We not only know the existence of Li Ruirui, but also know that you two have a two-year-old son."
"The house they rented is also under your and Hu Yuefei's name."
"Can you...don't tell Yuefei about this?"
Wu Kaiyue looked at Chen Yan and Zhang Chaoyang with a plea: "Yuefei and I are college classmates, and we are first love."
"She trusts me very much, but..."
"But we have been married for such a long time and have no children."
"The hospital has also checked, and artificial insemination has been tried, but it has no effect."
"My parents urge me every day...I have no choice..."
Wu Kaiyue said very sincerely, and his emotions were not very excited.
Just a little overwhelmed.
Perhaps, Wu Kaiyue had already prepared himself to be discovered.
But when things came, he was obviously not fully prepared.
"Mr. Wu, we have no intention of interfering with your private life."
Chen Yan looked at Wu Kaiyue: "We knew about this matter on the day you reported the theft."
"But we didn't tell your wife Hu Yuefei about it."
"We came here today mainly to find out about Li Ruirui's situation."
"According to the video provided by the property company, Li Ruirui took the child out yesterday morning."
"Where is she now?"
...
Leave Wu Kaiyue's company.
Chen Yan's frown finally relaxed.
Zhang Chaoyang looked at Chen Yan with some surprise: "Captain Chen, you suspect this Li Ruirui..."
Chen Yan nodded affirmatively.
"Why, this woman has nothing to do with the case at all."
Why?
Chen Yan looked at Zhang Chaoyang: "From the clues of our investigation of the entire case, this Li Ruirui is indeed not directly related to the theft case."
"In other words, we did not find any connection between her and the four thieves."
"But today, I accidentally found the smell of Wu Kaiyue at the scene where the four thieves died."
"Wu Kaiyue's smell?"
Zhang Chaoyang has always known that Chen Yan has a good nose.
However, Zhang Chaoyang still couldn't believe it even though it was so good.
"Captain Chen, can you tell the smell of everyone?"
Chen Yan nodded: "Yes, although I can't say I can tell it 100%, but generally in a confined space, in a room with poor air circulation, if a person has stayed for a long time, I can probably tell the smell."
"But we checked, Wu Kaiyue was in the company during the day yesterday."
"After get off work, he went home directly, and there was surveillance video when he ran in the evening to prove that he was in the community."
"Until this morning, he didn't leave the house..."
As he spoke, Zhang Chaoyang also understood what Chen Yan meant.
"Captain Chen, you mean that although Wu Kaiyue did not appear at the scene, the people who appeared at the crime scene should have had long-term contact with Wu Kaiyue!"
"So, they would have Wu Kaiyue's scent on them?"
Chen Yan nodded: "Yes, the crime scene is well protected."
"Moreover, the air circulation in the house rented by the four victims is not good, and the smell in the room is relatively strong."
"And from the information we have, there are only two people who have close contact with Wu Kaiyue."
"One is his wife, Hu Yuefei."
"And Hu Yuefei's movements yesterday have been found out."
"During the day , Hu Yuefei was working in the company, and there was a witness. "
"After get off work in the afternoon, the surveillance video in the community found Hu Yuefei's trace until she went out at 8 o'clock this morning."
"That is to say, Hu Yuefei should have been at home yesterday."
"The only other person who had long-term close contact with Wu Kaiyue and could carry his scent was Li Ruirui."
"And the surveillance video just retrieved by the property company showed that Li Ruirui took the child out yesterday morning and has not returned yet."
"So, Li Ruirui is a major suspect in the crime."
Getting in the police car, Chen Yan and Zhang Chaoyang went straight to Tianhe New District.
According to Wu Kaiyue's confession, Li Ruirui told him that she would go back to her parents' home for two days.
The child's grandparents miss their grandson.
Really, I have to say that this Wu Kaiyue is really good.
He and Li Ruirui did not get married, did not have a wedding, but he managed to deal with his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Moreover, according to Wu Kaiyue, Li Ruirui used to work in a gold shop, and they knew each other because Wu Kaiyue bought a gold bracelet for Hu Yuefei.
Tianhe New District.
Unit 3, Building 8, Cuizhuyuan Community, 602.
Chen Yan met Li Ruirui at her parents' home.
The moment he came into contact with Li Ruirui, Chen Yan was sure.
The person who appeared at the scene of the death of four thieves last night was this woman.
The smell left by Li Ruirui at the crime scene was not only Wu Kaiyue's, but more of her own.
However, Chen Yan had never come into contact with Li Ruirui before, and at that time he could not determine that the smell of the stranger at the scene belonged to Li Ruirui.
"You are..."
At this moment, Li Ruirui was holding her two-year-old son.
"Are you Li Ruirui?"
Li Ruirui nodded: "Yes, I am Li Ruirui, may I ask you..."
Zhang Chaoyang followed Chen Yan: "We are police."
Police?
When Li Ruirui heard Zhang Chaoyang say the word police, the corners of her eyes twitched unconsciously.
This detail was captured by Chen Yan, who had been observing Li Ruirui's expression.
"Ms. Li, we need to verify some things with you."
"Do you think you should follow us now..."
Behind Li Ruirui, two elderly people walked out. They should be Li Ruirui's parents.
The two elderly people's eyes were puzzled: "Ruirui, these two are..."
"Oh," Li Ruirui turned back hurriedly: "Dad, it's okay, two friends have something to do."
Li Ruirui did not say that Chen Yan and the other two were policemen.
Instead, he said friends.
Li Ruirui gave the child in her arms to her mother behind her: "Mom, help me take care of McDull."
Wow...
The two-year-old child cried as soon as he left Li Ruirui's arms.
Li Ruirui's face suddenly turned pale, and the look she gave the child made Zhang Chaoyang feel a little uncomfortable.
"Ms. Li, we are just verifying some things with you,"
Zhang Chaoyang stepped forward. As a father, he could now more or less understand Li Ruirui's feelings.
"It won't take too long."
Chen Yan glanced at Zhang Chaoyang and said nothing.
Although Zhang Chaoyang was lying, Chen Yan certainly would not stop him in this situation.
Maybe Zhang Chaoyang's words worked.
Li Ruirui's face looked much better.
The little boy leaned on his grandmother's arms and stopped crying.
The two-year-old child can already speak.
"Mom, come back soon, McDull is hungry and wants to eat buns..."
"Yeah, you eat with grandma first, mom will be back soon."
...
The pavilion downstairs in the community.
Liancheng City at the end of October is the best time of the year.
The climate is cool and pleasant.
However, Li Ruirui wrapped herself in a coat, but she was still shivering.
"Ms. Li, where were you at 12 o'clock last night?"
"I... I was having dinner with my friends..."
"Li Ruirui, you..."
Chen Yan looked up at Li Ruirui and raised his hand to interrupt Zhang Chaoyang.
"Li Ruirui, since we can find you, don't you understand what's going on?"
