Chapter 424 He Never Takes a Bath (Two Chapters in One)

Li Baoguo's wife Zhang Yanhui has not been contacted yet, and Wang Sheng has sent back other news.

Two weeks ago, the surveillance system of the Imperial Family Community was overhauled for a week.

"Team Leader Chen, one week to half a week ago, all the surveillance cameras in the Imperial Family Community were not working."

"We didn't find any valuable clues."

System overhaul?

Chen Yan frowned slightly.

The surveillance system of the Imperial Family Community is very high-end.

Even in major public places, cameras that can track automatically are used.

As a result, the maintenance started two weeks ago...

"The Imperial Family Community is a newly built community. Why did they do a week-long maintenance on their surveillance system?"

"We have checked it."

Wang Sheng handed a stack of materials to Chen Yan: "The surveillance system of this community was originally provided by a foreign service provider."

"The system itself comes with the surveillance when it is installed."

"This version of the system has a free service period. After the expiration, you need to pay the service fee again for the system to operate normally."

"Half a month ago, the community replaced the new system. Because it needs to be debugged and matched, it took a little longer."

"By the way, Team Leader Chen, the community property company has issued a notice in advance."

"Even the community security guards will verbally inform the owners passing by at the gate."

"So, most people in the community should know about this maintenance."

Everyone knows...

Chen Yan leaned back in his chair.

In this case, the murderer obviously chose this time deliberately.

The time of death of the deceased was ten days ago.

It was the window period for the maintenance of the surveillance system.

"Next, we will focus on two things."

"First, compare the DNA information of the deceased with the DNA information of Li Baoguo's mother."

"Notify me as soon as there is a result."

"Second, contact Li Baoguo's wife Zhang Yanhui as soon as possible."

Just now, Chen Yan learned from Li Baoguo's father Li Changping that Li Baoguo and his wife Zhang Yanhui should have a good relationship.

Since the relationship between them is not particularly bad.

So, why didn't Zhang Yanhui report the case?

Even if it is finally confirmed that the deceased is not Li Baoguo.

But why didn't Zhang Yanhui go home during this period?

You know, the toothbrush in the pink toothbrush holder on the washstand has traces of use.

There are also Zhang Yanhui's fingerprints in the room.

There are also women's clothing in the closet.

The dressing cabinet in the bedroom is full of cosmetics.

All this shows that Zhang Yanhui should live in the room where the crime occurred.

But Zhang Yanhui didn't know that there was a dead body in her home for ten days.

Where did she go?

Did she have an accident?

Look at the time, it's already 11 o'clock in the evening.

After arranging the work, Chen Yan returned to the hotel.

During the day, Chen Yan had told Shen Yunyi about the case.

After knowing this, Xiao Yujie naturally said nothing.

This is the nature of Chen Yan's work.

As the leader of the serious case team of the Liao Province Detective Brigade, all major criminal cases in Liao Province are under Chen Yan's investigation.

"Did the case go smoothly?"

Bringing a bowl of Tremella soup, Xiao Yujie stood behind the sofa and massaged Chen Yan's shoulders.

Leaning on the sofa, Chen Yan closed his eyes and enjoyed Shen Yunyi's massage.

"There is no clue yet, and the identity of the deceased has not been finalized."

"It is estimated that there will be substantial progress tomorrow."

"Oh," Shen Yunyi did not ask about the case: "Try Tremella soup, it is the specialty of this hotel."

"Yeah."

Sitting up, Chen Yan picked up the porcelain bowl on the coffee table and gently scooped the spoon.

"It's so sweet."

The Tremella soup has been boiled into a transparent soup, and it is dotted with a few wolfberries.

Sweet but not greasy, refreshing and delicious.

"Yunyi, you try it too."

Shen Yunyi walked around from behind the sofa to Chen Yan and leaned on Chen Yan's shoulder: "I just ate it."

"This night is all yours..."

The next day.

Chen Yan saw Shen Yunyi off at the door of the hotel.

After the class reunion, Xiao Yujie also saw several female classmates who could defeat Shen Yunyi in Sanda, and her mind had long been put down.

Chen Yan still has to stay in Shen City to solve the case, and the specific time is still uncertain.

Shen Yunyi has an important meeting in Beijing tomorrow, so he left early.

Leaving Chen Yan in Shen City, he can also solve the case with peace of mind.

Detective Team 3.

Chen Yan had just entered the office temporarily prepared for him when Wang Hu came to report.

"Team Leader Chen, the DNA comparison results of the deceased and Li Baoguo's mother are out!"

Out?

Chen Yan was shocked.

"What's the result?"

The DNA information of the deceased did not successfully match the DNA information of Li Baoguo's father.

In other words, the deceased is not Li Changping's son.

But this does not mean that the deceased is not Li Baoguo.

Determining the identity of the deceased is the most important part of solving the entire case.

There can be no mistakes in this environment. The identity of the deceased must be confirmed, so that the following work can be carried out.

Otherwise, everything is a castle in the air.

"Comparison successful!"

Wang Hu excitedly raised the comparison result report in his hand, and then handed it to Chen Yan.

"The deceased is confirmed to have a parent-child relationship with Li Baoguo's mother."

"It can be locked, the identity of the deceased is Li Baoguo!"

Huh...

Chen Yan carefully read the result report.

"Supports the parent-child relationship between the deceased and Li Baoguo's mother."

Seeing this conclusion, Chen Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that Li Baoguo's mother was also a romantic figure back then.

Li Changping was given such a big hat, but he didn't reveal his true colors for more than 30 years.

However, this matter has nothing to do with Chen Yan.

The identity of the deceased can be confirmed, and the next step will be easy.

"Wang Hu, immediately arrange for someone to investigate Li Baoguo's work and life background."

"Do he have any enemies or friends, especially Li Baoguo's itinerary ten days ago, that is, on June 19."

"Check his vehicle's driving trajectory, speed camera, driving recorder, etc."

"I want to know some information about Li Baoguo."

"Yes!"

Wang Hu was also very excited. After confirming the identity of the deceased, the investigation of the case would be much easier.

"By the way, have you contacted Zhang Yanhui, the wife of Li Baoguo?"

Wang Hu nodded heavily: "We have contacted her."

"Last night, Wang Sheng went to Zhang Yanhui's unit in person."

It turned out that Zhang Yanhui worked in a bidding agency.

"On June 18, Zhang Yanhui had a bidding to participate in."

"According to the requirements of the bidding work, all participants must be under closed management during the bidding period. They cannot carry any communication tools and cannot contact the outside world."

"Zhang Yanhui was locked in the Xinneng Hotel in Shenyang on the morning of June 18."

"Tomorrow, that is, June 30, the closed management will be lifted from the bidding hotel."

Closed bidding?

The news brought back by Wang Sheng...

It seems that Zhang Yanhui has been excluded from the entire case.

The deceased Li Baoguo, Zhang Yanhui's husband, was killed on June 19, and Zhang Yanhui was locked in the bidding hotel on the morning of June 18.

On June 28, Li Baoguo's body was found.

And Zhang Yanhui will be released from closed management on June 30.

From the time the crime occurred to the time the body was found, Zhang Yanhui was not present.

Moreover, because of the closed management, Zhang Yanhui could not carry a mobile phone and could not contact the outside world.

This perfectly explains why Zhang Yanhui did not find out that Li Baoguo was killed in ten days.

It also explains why she did not report the case.

Because she was closed in the bidding hotel, she had no idea what was happening in the outside world.

This situation... interesting!

Is this a coincidence?

When Li Baoguo was killed, the community surveillance video had to be inspected and a new system was upgraded and installed.

Zhang Yanhui, Li Baoguo's wife who had the closest relationship with him, was also closed in the hotel for bidding during this time.

Therefore, Li Baoguo was not found for ten days after his death.

It was not until the body rotted and the maggots that bred blocked the sewer downstairs that it was discovered.

An hour later, Chen Yan met Zhang Yanhui, the wife of the deceased Li Baoguo, in the No. 1 interrogation room.

"Ms. Zhang, where were you on June 19?"

Chen Yan had already seen Zhang Yanhui's information.

Zhang Yanhui, a native of Tieshi, was 30 years old and worked in a bidding company after graduating from university.

Married to Li Baoguo 6 years ago.

After marriage, the two had no children.

"I have been bidding for hotels and have never gone out."

Although Zhang Yanhui is not stunning, she has fair skin, tall figure, and a crisp voice.

She is the kind of woman who looks very clean.

At this moment, Zhang Yanhui, who sat opposite Chen Yan, looked a little nervous.

"What happened?"

Zhang Yanhui's normal unblocking time is tomorrow.

Because it involves a criminal case, the Shen City Detective Team 3 will naturally take people out in advance.

When she was taken away at the bidding site, Zhang Yanhui immediately thought about whether there was something wrong with her work.

After graduating from university at the age of 22, Zhang Yanhui entered the bidding company and engaged in bidding work.

She knew that there were twists and turns here.

In the eight years of working in bidding, many colleagues around Zhang Yanhui were taken away for bidding in violation of regulations.

And Zhang Yanhui herself could not be immune to this.

Over the years, especially in recent years, the biddings she was responsible for have increased.

The amount is also getting bigger and bigger.

Zhang Yanhui also did a lot of small things in private within her scope of authority.

Could it be that these things were reported?

However, she did it very secretly, and it was all arranged before the bidding started.

Logically speaking, this bidding is almost over, and it is impossible to take her away at this time.

"This police officer, is it..."

"Someone complained?"

Zhang Yanhui's expression has changed from nervousness to panic.

"I tell you, doing our business is bound to offend people."

"Some companies did not meet the requirements of the tenderer after bidding, so they naturally could not win the bid. They pushed the responsibility on us, thinking that it was our manipulation that made them fail to win the bid."

"But when we bid, we strictly follow the bidding process."

"For example, in this bidding, the experts selected did not know each other."

"Including myself, I don't know them."

"In fact, we can only see the bidding content of the bidding company, and we don't know which number corresponds to which company."

"All bidding reviews are conducted in isolation. We have handed over our cell phones and have no chance to meet each other and collude, so..."

"Wait," Chen Yan interrupted Zhang Yanhui, who was already a little flustered: "We invited you here today not to ask about your bidding company."

"It has nothing to do with your bidding work."

"Ah..."

Knowing that Chen Yan and his team brought her to the detective team not for bidding, Zhang Yanhui breathed a sigh of relief.

"I said, I am doing my job honestly, how could anyone sue me?"

"Since it is not about my work, this officer..."

"Ms. Zhang, we want to know, when was the last time you saw your husband?"

"My husband?"

Zhang Yanhui was slightly startled.

When Chen Yan started the interrogation, he had already turned on the micro-expression analysis skill.

Zhang Yanhui's nervousness and panic were not fake.

During the conversation just now, the reason why Chen Yan interrupted Zhang Yanhui a little later was to observe Zhang Yanhui's expression.

As a result, Zhang Yanhui's eyes, expressions, body movements and even breathing frequency were very real.

The moment Chen Yan mentioned Li Baoguo, Zhang Yanhui's obvious surprise also changed very naturally.

"What happened to him?"

"Did something happen to my husband?"

"Ms. Zhang, I hope you will calm down next."

There was no need for Chen Yan to hide Li Baoguo's death from Zhang Yanhui.

As Li Baoguo's wife, Zhang Yanhui had the right to know the circumstances of Li Baoguo's death.

"Yesterday morning, we found your husband's body in the bathtub in your bathroom!"

Corpse?

Zhang Yanhui's stunned expression suddenly stiffened.

The blood on her face faded at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Corpse?"

Zhang Yanhui widened her eyes, looked at Chen Yan, and finally muttered to herself: "You said... my husband is dead?!"

"We are in the property company..."

"Ah!"

Zhang Yanhui, who was mumbling to herself just now, suddenly became emotional.

"How did he die?"

"How could my husband die?"

"Impossible!"

"Impossible!"

"How could Baoguo die!"

Zhang Yanhui's emotions collapsed for a time.

Chen Yan had no choice but to call the female detective outside the interrogation room to comfort Zhang Yanhui, who had already collapsed.

It took half an hour for Zhang Yanhui to finally calm down.

Chen Yan could understand this.

He had been in the closed bidding for only ten days.

As a result, before the closed period was over, she learned about her husband's death.

Anyone would probably collapse.

In the interrogation room, Zhang Yanhui's makeup had been smudged, her eyes were red and swollen, and her hair was a little messy.

She was completely different from the person who had just entered the interrogation room.

Her mental state seemed a little unstable.

"Ms. Zhang, please accept my condolences."

"About your husband's death..."

"Baoguo must have been killed!"

Hmm?

Chen Yan was slightly startled.

Li Baoguo's incident was certainly not an accident.

But this conclusion was drawn after the autopsy was over, when Chen Yan and others found the transverse fracture line behind Li Baoguo's head.

Only then did they judge that Li Baoguo should have suffered a heavy blow to the back of his head before he died.

Then he bumped into the faucet of the bathtub.

This faked the accidental death scene of Li Baoguo.

But why was Zhang Yanhui so sure that Li Baoguo was killed?

"Ms. Zhang, judging from the situation at the scene, your husband died in the bathtub in your bathroom."

"The back of his head hit the faucet of the bathtub, which eventually caused excessive blood loss and then death..."

Chen Yan would naturally not tell Zhang Yanhui that he had already found that Li Baoguo was killed.

He wanted to know why Zhang Yanhui was so sure that Li Baoguo was killed, not accidentally died.

"No!"

Before Chen Yan finished speaking, Zhang Yanhui interrupted Chen Yan again.

"Baoguo never takes a bath. He has never used the bathtub since it was renovated."

"He said that lying in the bathtub would make him feel suffocated."

"So, there must be something wrong with his death in the bathtub."

"Besides, the water outlet at the bottom of our bathtub is not sealed well. It broke two months ago."

"It only takes more than ten minutes for the water inside to drain out. It is even more impossible for him to take a bath!"

"So, my husband must have been killed by someone!"

"You must catch the murderer and avenge him!"

It turned out that Zhang Yanhui's judgment was based on her familiarity with Li Baoguo's behavior habits and the leaking bathtub in her home, so she believed that Li Baoguo could not have died accidentally while taking a bath in the bathtub.

She believed that Li Baoguo was murdered!
