Detective: Open your eyes, I am handcuffed in the interrogation room

Qin Fei didn't ask why. After hearing Chen Yi's words and confirming the safety of driving at the front and rear, Qin Fei immediately chose the double solid line to make a U-turn, ignoring traffic regulations.

"Go to Ximei Village."

Chen Yi's voice sounded immediately.

Qin Fei's home is in the east of the city. He is not familiar with the south of the city and rarely goes there, so he turned on the navigation search. When the vehicle started to drive normally, he asked: "Captain Chen, what are you doing in Ximei Village?"

Chen Yi: "Someone hanged himself."

Qin Fei: "Oh."

He asked no more questions.

Suicide by hanging has nothing to do with the investigation team, and even if it is a homicide, the case should be handled by the Chengnan Branch. There must be a special reason for Chen Yi to rush to the scene as soon as he gets the news.

Just because he didn't ask, it doesn't mean that others didn't ask. Zhuge Cong's character has always been unable to hold back: "Captain Chen, is there anything wrong with the dead person?"

Chen Yi: "Maybe he died due to demolition. The developer is Chen Group. I'll go and see the situation."

Several people understood that Chen Yi's family background was not a secret internally. Since it involved his own company, it was understandable to understand the situation. The police were not saints, and everyone had selfish motives.

If they really needed help, they wouldn't be able to just sit back and watch.

At this time, everyone closed their mouths in a tacit understanding, and the speed of the car became faster and faster.

In Ximei Village, the developer has arrived and is facing verbal criticism from the village chief. The villagers are very quiet. It is not their own family members who died. They are more concerned about whether the demolition compensation will be affected.

When the accident happened, the snow in front of everyone was in full display. Only a few people were sighing, and most of them were watching.

"We really didn't force him." The project manager kept explaining. "When the police came to mediate three days ago, we added each other on WeChat. You can see the chat content. I have always been very polite to him and never mentioned force. I didn’t say anything harsh about the demolition.”

The village chief glared: "Then why did Awen hang himself? You must have done something!"

The project manager was helpless and a little scared. If Gou Qiwen's death was really blamed on him, he would be affected for the rest of his life.

The general manager knew that it was useless to argue, so he found Li Antai, who was in charge of the case, and exchanged what they knew about the situation.

Li Antai basically understood the detailed cause and effect. He checked the chat records between the project manager and Gou Qiwen. It was normal. However, the project manager's attitude became more and more tough, saying that an additional compensation of 600,000 yuan was absolutely impossible, and Gou Qiwen did not want to even think about it. think.

At the same time, it was also clearly pointed out that Gou Qiwen's behavior violated the rules. If the above mentioned situation caused a big problem, let alone 600,000 yuan, he would not even want 100,000 yuan.

The demolition must be carried out, and the matter will come to an end sooner or later. The project manager asked Gou Qiwen to understand the situation clearly. It is useless to act rogue these days.

To put it bluntly, it was a quarrel.

The project manager did not mention forced demolition, nor did he say anything too harsh.

To take a step back, even if the project manager had a bad attitude and threatened to demolish the project, there was no need for Gou Qiwen to commit suicide based on his motives. If the person is dead, what's the use of asking for money?

Of course, everyone has different personalities, and no one knows what Gou Qiwen is thinking in his heart. It is not impossible for him to lose his mind and go crazy and hang himself directly. After all, if a person dies, the developer will be in big trouble, killing a thousand enemies and losing everything.

In any case, the hanging has become a fact. Even if the developer does not need to be responsible, the impact on public opinion is inevitable, and it may even become national news.

With the development of the Internet, information spreads extremely fast. This matter cannot be hidden, and there is no need to hide it, unless someone is suppressing it.

Those things are not Li Antai's responsibility. He is only responsible for the case in front of him.

The reporter arrived very quickly, but was blocked by the cordon.

Nowadays, new media is developing rapidly and traditional journalism is facing changes. Investigative reporters have become increasingly rare, comparable to giant pandas.

Although it is rare, it definitely exists. News that developers force demolished households to death can make headlines. Everyone wants to be the first to report it. This kind of opportunity is rare.

In addition to investigative reporters, self-media staff also want to get first-hand information to absorb traffic.

Li Antai glanced at it and ignored it. In the Internet era, law enforcement work is under public supervision. In principle, it can be disseminated except for confidentiality. In the end, the official will issue an announcement.

At this moment, the short video software is estimated to have the first works of eye-catchers.

"Captain Li, please tell me if you need our cooperation." The general manager's attitude was very low. He needed to use the shortest time to eliminate the impact to the greatest extent. If he really couldn't afford compensation, he could do it.

If he had known this, he would have given him the 600,000 yuan. Now the loss is probably more than 600,000 yuan.

Li Antai hummed. At the moment, he still wanted to determine whether the deceased committed suicide. The criminal police only looked at the investigation results.

If it is suicide, then the developer is really in trouble. Regardless of whether it is related or not, he must bear some responsibility for the matter. There is no other way. It can only be said that it is unlucky. The demolition met a madman.

After the extraction of the footprints on the stool, a preliminary comparison showed that it was that of the deceased Gou Qiwen, and there was no problem with the load-bearing area. The whole person was indeed standing on the chair, which indirectly proved that Gou Qiwen did commit suicide.

Li Antai cast a sympathetic look at the general manager. He was probably going to be very anxious during this period, so be happy for yourself.

A commercial vehicle drove in from a distance, and the electric sliding door opened. Chen Yi got out of the car, waved to Jiang Fanlei, and came to the cordon.

The policeman standing guard recognized Chen Yi, and his expression changed and he quickly set up a cordon.

"Team Chen."

Chen Yi hummed, and all seven people walked in.

Li Antai was still chatting with the general manager, enjoying the compliments from the rich man with an indifferent expression. When he caught sight of Chen Yi from the corner of his eye, his pupils shrank, and he immediately stood up and saluted: "Team Chen!"

The general manager was stunned, turned his head suddenly, and saw a familiar face.

As an executive of a subsidiary of the Chen Group, he had naturally met Chen Yi and knew his status in Yangcheng police circles, but he did not dare to mention Li Antai's attitude, which would be very serious if it spread to Chen Zhiyao's ears. .

Chen Zhiyao once said in a meeting that Chen Yi belongs to Chen Yi's company. No matter what happens, Chen Yi's name cannot be used to make false claims, let alone contact him privately, otherwise he will be fired immediately.

Therefore, he did not dare to say that he knew Chen Yi so that Li Antai could help with the case.

The words of the police are still very effective, at least temporarily suppressing public opinion.

"Chen..." The general manager doesn't know what to call him, Mr. Chen? Master Chen? He finally chose three words, "Captain Chen."

Chen Yi nodded and looked towards the forensic doctor.

There was a corpse placed on the white cloth. It was undoubtedly Gou Qiwen. It could be seen that the face was cyanotic, the skin was pale, the eyes were turned up, and the neck had obvious strangulation marks due to excessive pulling, which was consistent with the external characteristics of hanging.

"Team Chen, why are you here?" Li Antai asked respectfully.

Chen Yi is the role model for all young policemen in Yangcheng, and he is no exception. He respects him very much, not to mention that he is also the deputy captain of the provincial criminal investigation team and a third-level police supervisor.

Chen Yi didn't hide it: "I'm the developer. After hearing the news, come over and take a look to see what can be done."

Li Antai turned to look at the general manager. His eyes said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

The general manager responded with a sneer.

He felt relieved. Things would be much easier to handle now that Chen Yi was here. It seemed that he wanted to take care of this matter. Since I wasn't the one who called him here, it didn't matter if Director Chen knew about it.

"Captain Li, what's going on?" Chen Yi asked after explaining.

Li Antai: "Basically determined to commit suicide."

Chen Yi: "Is it convenient for my people to intervene?"

Li Antai: "Of course, of course, Team Chen can just go directly."

Chen Yi turned around and said, "Go get gloves and shoe covers and see what's going on. Just three people will be enough. Don't go too many."

After some discussion, Qin Fei, Zhuge Cong and Cheng Hanjun went to the scene, leaving the others unmoved.

During the process, Chen Yi and Li Antai chatted.

"Didn't I hear that Team Chen went to investigate?" Li Antai was a little surprised. The information was inaccurate?

Chen Yi smiled: "I did go to investigate. I went back to Yangcheng to rest on the way. I already set off today and got the news of Gou Qiwen's suicide, so I turned back."

Li Antai said oh, of course he has to get involved in his own company's affairs, so it's normal to be worried.

While chatting, Zhuge Cong and the other three came to the scene of the crime. All the colleagues in the branch were working and no one spoke.

The three people understood what Chen Yi meant and asked them to come over to see what was going on to determine whether it was suicide. To be precise, Chen Yi already suspected that it was not suicide.

The whole story is clear. The demolition households broke the rules and wanted more money. Now they don't even have the money. How could they hang themselves? What's more, even if there is no extra money, the original demolition money is enough to cover food and clothing.

After finally waiting for their homes to be demolished, how many people dream of it and commit suicide just to get more money?

Nothing is left when a person dies, so the motive for suicide is not established at all.

Even if he commits suicide, it will never be because of demolition.

"Brother, is the autopsy result a suicide?" Zhuge Cong came to the body and said politely.

The middle-aged forensic doctor raised his head and glanced at Zhuge Cong. Knowing that the other party must have an identity since he was close to the scene, he replied: "It was a suicide. There is no suspicion at the moment."

Zhuge Cong: "When did you die?"

Forensic doctor: "The initial judgment is between one and two o'clock last night."

"Oh, thank you."

Zhuge Cong thanked him and turned to look at the door next to him.

A thick hemp rope hung from the beam, knotted into a circle, just big enough to fit into the head, and a wooden chair was scattered on the ground just inside the door, without a backrest or handle.

Looking further inside, the yard lights were still on.

It is easy to think of it: last night, the deceased got up from the bed and went to the yard, turned on the light and hung the rope, then stepped on the stool and put the rope loop into his head, kicked the chair away and committed suicide.

no problem.

"Is it really suicide?" Qin Fei asked.

Zhuge Cong said: "The forensic doctor gave the result and the incident can be reconstructed at the scene. It should really be a suicide."

Cheng Hanjun: "If it was suicide, what was his motive? I have never heard of someone who was about to be demolished committing suicide. Team Chen said that the deceased Gou Qiwen was a second-rate man and he couldn't squander the windfall he had received from heaven?"

Zhuge Cong frowned: "Yeah, it's strange. Is there any other motive?"

Cheng Hanjun: "Even if there are other motives, demolition is enough to make up for the inner rift, right?"

Money can solve worries, and maybe even depression can be cured. Gou Qiwen's behavior is really puzzling. Are there still people who get rich overnight and commit suicide these days?

"Take a closer look." Zhuge Cong said, and several people carefully performed the scene from the beginning.

Cheng Hanjun's professionalism prompted him to come to the trace inspection. The branch trace inspection is trying to extract more footprints, and the footprints on the stool have been extracted.

Squatting in front of the fallen stool, Cheng Hanjun took a closer look and found that the footprints were size 43. The size and pattern were exactly the same as the travel shoes worn by the deceased, so there was no problem.

The stool is large, a square wooden stool common in rural areas. It is dark brown and old. It looks like it has seen some age.

Cheng Hanjun made a visual inspection and found that the length and width were about fifty centimeters. The position where the deceased's footprints were extracted from the top was close to the edge. If he stepped further back, his heels would extend outside.

"Um?"

Cheng Hanjun felt that something was not right. He tilted his head and stared at the location of the footprints, thinking deeply. In his mind, he began to build a three-dimensional model of the space when the deceased was hanging.

Since the footprints were close to the edge, Gou Qiwen's feet must have been very far back when he stepped on them. In this position, a normal person should kick forward.

If you kick it backwards...can you hit it? Requires testing.

Cheng Hanjun frowned, turned to look at the position of the rope, stood up and walked over.

After visually measuring the height of the deceased and the height of the stool, Cheng Hanjun stepped back and looked at the door.

The beam of the door was very high, and Gou Qiwen could almost reach the rope loop while standing on the chair.

With your feet back, you're unlikely to kick back, unless you force your feet to roll the stool backwards, which is a bit troublesome, so why not kick forward?

This is a doubtful point, but it is not decisive. There are many ways to commit suicide, and the details are countless. Maybe it is not impossible for Gou Qiwen to use force from behind. Anyway, it can make the stool fall.

The decisive doubt lies in...

In that position, can you flip the stool back that far?

"Zhuge! Qin Fei!"

Cheng Hanjun shouted, and when the two came, he told them the location of the footprints and his judgment.

After listening to Cheng Hanjun's words, Qin Fei thought for a moment and realized the crux of the problem: "There's a problem. This stool weighs a lot. Let's test it? Zhuge, your height is about the same as the deceased."

"Okay, I'll do it." Zhuge Cong nodded, then looked at his colleagues in the branch and raised his voice: "Have you finished extracting all the traces on the stool? Can it be moved? We want to do an experiment!"

The criminal police officers of the branch looked at each other, unable to make a decision, and asked the captain for his opinion.

"Experiment?" Li Antai didn't understand, but since he was Chen Yi's man, of course he had to give him face, "Okay, okay, be careful."

Chen Yi watched Zhuge Cong pick up the stool with his gloved hands, slowly put it under the rope, and then stood up.

what are you doing? It was obviously a re-enactment of the suicide process, but he didn't know the purpose because he didn't know the location of the footprints.

Will Gou Qiwen commit suicide? The possibility is very low. The people in the research team need to experience actual combat. It is best to have results, but you can learn something even if there are no results.

Now it seems that several people have discovered the suspicion and did not let him down.

The branch criminal police and the forensic doctor stopped what they were doing and looked over. They saw Zhuge Cong standing on the stool, grabbing the rope loop with his hand, stepping on Gou Qiwen's position and glaring back hard.

Bang!

The stool rolled twice in response, but it was still some distance away from the location of the crime.

"Come again!"

Qin Fei moved the stool back and repeated the process.

Bang!

This time Zhuge Cong tried his best, but still couldn't reach the location of the crime, missing by more than one meter.

"continue!"

This was repeated three or four times with the same result.

"Fu Guoyong! Come on!"

In order to ensure the accuracy of the experimental results, Zhuge Cong and the others asked Fu Guoyong to simulate the hanging process of the deceased. His feet should be stronger.

"Coming, coming." Fu Guoyong arrived and stepped on the stool under the instructions of the three people.

Bang!

The stool rolled two more times this time. Although it was much closer, it still did not reach the position where the crime occurred.

Seeing this, Cheng Hanjun's face became a little solemn.

In other words, Gou Qiwen most likely did not have the ability to turn the stool back that far, and it was most comfortable to kick his feet forward. This is a subconscious action that normal people should have.

Combined with the fact that Gou Qiwen's motive for suicide cannot be established at all, a conclusion is drawn.

"Team Chen, the deceased probably did not commit suicide!" Cheng Hanjun reported.

The expressions of the forensic doctors and trace examiners present changed. Is this true? !

Chen Yi raised his eyebrows. Provincial and departmental talents who can join the research team really have something, but there is no need for him to teach in person.

Turning to look at Li Antai beside him, the latter's expression was a bit exciting.

"Captain Li, it looks like it's a murder case. I'm quite busy."

Li Antai's mouth twitched and he subconsciously looked back at the developer, especially the project manager responsible for persuading Gou Qiwen.

Is there a motive? Yes, but it is impossible for five to six million, not to mention that the other party is still a part-time worker, so it is not his turn to pay.

What about the rest? Not to mention, the developer doesn’t lack this little money, so why would he kill someone?

If it was really a murder, the motive should have nothing to do with demolition.
