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

Chapter 172 No body dumped
After getting the results, Chen Yi fell into a long silence.

Zhuo Yun didn't speak anymore and waited quietly. He needed Chen Yi's next instructions.

Should we continue salvage or close the team?

If the salvage continues, the scope will be expanded to deep water areas, and many salvage ships will need to be mobilized.

but……

Unless the suspect flew a helicopter or used a boat to dump the body, it shouldn't be possible to dump it that far.

A helicopter is naturally impossible, but a boat...

The boats in the reservoir belong to the Reservoir Management Office, which is a unit under the Water Conservancy Bureau. Outsiders cannot use them casually, unless the suspect has connections.

After thinking for 2 minutes, Chen Yi said: "Go visit the reservoir management personnel to determine the usage of the boats. Don't listen to one person. I want an exact answer. It is best to have monitoring."

Zhuo Yun: "I understand, then should we continue salvaging?"

Chen Yi: "No, let's collect the team first."

Zhuo Yun: "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, He Jixin, who had been standing next to him, said, "Can't find it?"

Chen Yi shook his head.

He Xin frowned: "It shouldn't be, could it be thrown into deep water?"

Chen Yi didn't answer, turned around and shouted: "Call Brother Qiang over here!"

Soon, Lu Yongqiang left the technical department and came to the case handling hall: "Team Chen, you are looking for me."

Chen Yi asked: "Brother Qiang, I'm sorry, but let me make sure, is there no blood at all in Du Caibin's house?"

Lu Yongqiang shook his head: "No."

"Captain Chen, what's going on? Can't you find the body?"

Chen Yi: "Before, it was suspected that Du Caibin threw the body into the reservoir, but now it seems that the direction is wrong."

"If it wasn't in the reservoir, the only thing I can think of right now is the broken corpses."

These two words made Lu Yongqiang's expression change. He had not heard of such a vicious crime method for a long time.

He immediately said: "Captain Chen, it's impossible. How can there be no trace of the broken corpse?"

"I have led people to conduct a comprehensive inspection of Du Caibin's home, focusing on the bathroom. Even the sewer outlet was opened and searched. There is no trace of blood or human tissue."

"Unless...he used more professional means to clean it thoroughly, but with such a loud movement of corpses, it's impossible that the neighbors going up and downstairs wouldn't hear it, right?
Chen Yi nodded slightly: "That's true, so...if Du Caibin killed Guo Jiayin at home, then the body must be complete."

Not to mention that Du Caibin was relatively thin and had limited ability to cut up corpses. The main reason was that the whole floor could hear him chopping dumpling stuffing, let alone cutting up corpses.

Lu Yongqiang: "It must be complete."

A few people chatted for a while, and when it was time to get off work, Fang Shuyu left the forensic room and came to the case handling hall.

Seeing Chen Yi gently rubbing his eyebrows, she knew that the investigation of this case was not going well.

"What's wrong?" Fang Shuyu asked.

Chen Yi didn't say anything. When did he speak again: "No body was found in the reservoir where the body was suspected to be dumped."

Hearing this, Fang Shuyu thought for a moment and said, "What if it was thrown on the road?"

Shi Xindao: "No, judging from the time and speed of arriving at the reservoir, it is the normal standard driving time."

"The vehicle's destination was very clear, which was the reservoir, and it did not stop in the middle."

Fang Shuyu: "Then... sail the boat and dump the body?"

He Xin looked at Chen Yi.

Chen Yi said: "I have asked Zhuo Yun to check. Waiting for the results, Shuyu, please go back first. I will call you if necessary."

Fang Shuyu: "Okay."

The time came to 09:30 in the evening. Zhuo Yun's investigation was very fast. He had returned to the city bureau and brought back a surveillance video.

Case hall.

When Shi Xin inserted the copy into his computer, he turned on the monitoring of the waters near the reservoir management office.

Judging from the picture, there is a row of speedboats parked there.

Administrators usually use this kind of boat when inspecting the reservoir.

Zhuo Yun pointed to the surveillance screen and said: "Team Chen, this is the surveillance video from March 26. According to the reservoir management personnel, all the boats were here throughout the day and had not moved at all. The surveillance can prove it."

Shi Xin asked: "Do the nearby villagers have boats?"

Zhuo Yun: "No, villagers are not allowed to fish in this reservoir."

He Xin turned to look at Chen Yi: "If the body was really dumped in deep water, the only possibility is an inflatable kayak."

Chen Yi: "Call and ask."

The five simple words did not say who to ask, but when Xixin understood it, he turned around and shouted: "Xiaoxin, call the driver Du Caibin contacted and ask if Du Caibin had any when he got in the car. thing."

Jiang Xiaoxin responded: "I know, fight now."

Chen Yi lit a cigarette and fell into thought. After a while, he said, "Why do I feel like something is not right?"

When is new: "What's wrong?"

Chen Yi: "When Du Caibin contacted the taxi driver, it was just getting dark, right?"

When is it new: "Yes, it's past six o'clock."

Chen Yi: "In other words, Du Caibin chose to dump the body during the day. This is not in line with the normal psychology of committing crimes. The risk is still very high, at least it is more risky than at night."

"Of course, it's okay. There are no people around the reservoir except for fishermen. It's okay to find a remote place to dump the body."

"But if you use a boat, the risk will be even greater. Du Caibin seems to be very cautious and not stupid. Are you really not worried about being seen?"

"Not to mention anything else, once the reservoir management staff discovers that an unknown ship appears in the reservoir, won't the speedboat come over immediately?"

Several people thought about Chen Yi's words and felt that this behavior was indeed not in line with normal human psychology, especially for Du Caibin.

This guy could even come up with the idea of ​​pretending to be his wife and driving away. Would he take such a big risk?

In the silence, Jiang Xiaoxin got the result. She put down her phone and said, "I asked, no, Du Caibin was empty-handed at the time."

Seeing this, Ji Xin said: "It doesn't look like an inflatable kayak. The risk is indeed too great. So where did Guo Jiayin go?"

"Excluding the corpses that were broken up at home and the corpses thrown in the reservoir, where else could it be? You can't really stop and throw them away in the middle of the road, right? Then someone would have discovered it and called the police."

Chen Yi said nothing, took a puff of cigarette, and began to reorganize the entire disappearance case.

On the evening of March 25, Guo Jiayin and Du Caibin had a fight, and Guo Jiayin chatted with her cheating partner until late at night.

On March 26, Guo Jiayin continued to quarrel with Du Caibin and drove away in the afternoon, but the driver was most likely Du Caibin.

At this time, Guo Jiayin was suspected of death.

On March 27, Du Caibin moved.

On March 28, Du Caibin called the police.

"Huh? Moving?" Chen Yi's eyes narrowed and he raised his head suddenly, "Isn't this bastard trying to play tricks on us?"

When did you get a new doubt: "Sound in the east and attack in the west? What does it mean?"

Chen Yi's eyes flickered: "Since we can't find the body, let's change the direction. Du Caibin didn't dump the body."

Shi Xin: "The body was not dumped? Where is the body?" Chen Yi: "It's still at home."

Shi Xin was stunned for a moment: "Still at home? It's impossible. Du Caibin called the moving company to move the next day. If there is a body at home... uh, hidden in the bathroom? What if someone from the moving company goes to the bathroom? The master bedroom doesn’t have its own bathroom.”

Chen Yi stretched out his finger: "Two possibilities."

"Based on the assumption that he did not dump the body, there are two possibilities now."

"First, he hid the body in the bathroom, but this behavior is extremely risky. Lao He is right. If someone from the moving company wants to use the bathroom, the body will be found immediately."

"Second, he mixed the body with the moving items and chose to move directly to his new home. This is the most likely possibility."

"He made two preparations. First, he pretended to be Guo Jiayin and drove away a day in advance to mislead the police in the direction of their investigation and make the police think that Guo Jiayin was still alive at that time, which greatly reduced his suspicion."

"This is first-hand preparation."

"When he pretended to be Guo Jiayin and drove away, he could have chosen to dump the body. Even when we found out that he was a major suspect, we thought so at the first time."

"However, he made secondary preparations. There was no body of Guo Jiayin in the car at all, which once again disrupted the direction of the police investigation and made it impossible to determine whether Guo Jiayin was dead or alive."

After listening to Chen Yi's words, the expressions of everyone present changed. He Xin was a little surprised: "Is this just making false accusations? Maybe my wife was still at Xin's house when the police were called?"

Chen Yi nodded: "Yes."

When did you start thinking: "If it is really mixed in the moving items, where will it be? Find an opaque woven bag to put it in? Choose to take it yourself?"

Chen Yi: "There are many possibilities, such as...refrigerators. The houses we rented before have all been vacated. This means that we bought all the furniture and appliances ourselves, right? How can we live without refrigerators?"

refrigerator? !
Everyone suddenly felt horrified.

After Du Caibin killed Guo Jiayin, he stuffed her into the refrigerator, then pretended to be Guo Jiayin and went out. After returning, he slept all night, moved calmly the next day, and called the police on the third day?

In this case, the police's attention will be focused on March 26, and it is impossible to determine whether Guo Jiayin is alive or dead. It is indeed possible to get away with it, at least in a short time, it will not be possible to convict.

But there's a problem.

"Can one person fit in the refrigerator?" It was Lu Yongqiang who spoke.

Chen Yi: "A relatively large double-door refrigerator can definitely be modified manually, such as smashing the partition."

"Don't forget, Guo Jiayin is very petite, less than 1.6 meters tall."

Lu Yongqiang nodded: "That's true. Let's check it now?"

Chen Yi stood up: "Let's set off immediately. Even if we make a mistake, we can eliminate one possibility."

Everyone in the criminal investigation detachment was not off work that night, waiting for orders from Chen Yi at any time, and Chen Yi and his party had already arrived at Du Caibin's new home overnight.

New community, nice house.

After opening the door and entering, Chen Yi came to the restaurant immediately, where the refrigerator was placed against the wall.

He opened the upper floor and took a look, then opened the lower floor. The movable partition on the upper floor was removed and a thin person could be put in. However, the fixed partition on the lower floor was intact. It was difficult and impossible to stuff Guo Jiayin in.

Upper level?
"Huh? No."

Chen Yi quickly realized there was something wrong with the refrigerator.

New, brand new.

After Du Caibin moved, he bought a new refrigerator in a very short period of time.

Was there no refrigerator before, or was the previous refrigerator sold?If it is the latter, then the previous inference is very likely to be true.

"Old He, have you checked Du Caibin's online payment records?" Chen Yi asked. He had no choice yet to find a moving company.

Shi Xin: "That's not true."

Chen Yi: "Let's go back and check immediately. The others will stay and search again."

Returning to the city bureau, Shi Xin immediately conducted a second investigation on Du Caibin's mobile phone. This time, the focus was on Du Caibin's payment records in recent days.

If Du Caibin sold the old refrigerator, there is probably a collection record.

Even if not, as long as the old refrigerator once existed, whether it was given away for free or thrown away, you will know by checking the monitoring system.

They were not prepared to question Du Caibin face to face. This guy was very tough and without a solid chain of evidence, there was no way he would let go.

Shi Xin soon got the results. This time, he didn’t even need to restore the deleted records. Du Caibin didn’t delete them at all.

The collection record clearly records one item: recycling of so-and-so household appliances, two hundred yuan.

"Found it, yes!"

Seeing this payment record, Shi Xin's heart skipped a beat and he turned his head sharply.

Chen Yi said: "Contact this recycling company immediately and find this refrigerator!"

Since there is a company name, it is easy to find it.

Although it was already very late, this situation could not wait until the next day.

Soon, the police contacted the person in charge of the recycling company. After the other party learned that the criminal investigation detachment of the Municipal Bureau was investigating the case, he was so frightened that he quickly got up from the bed and called the company employees one by one to ask who had gone to the community to recycle in the past few days. Pass an old refrigerator.

After twelve o'clock, there was a clue to the refrigerator.

The employee who went to the community to recycle drove to the store. At this time, Chen Yi had already led others to wait for a long time.

Seeing the police car parked with its lights flashing, the employee quickly got out of the car and ran over.

"Officer, hello you guys."

Zhuo Yun took out the photo: "Hello, is it him?"

In the photo, it is Du Caibin's face.

The employee looked at it carefully and nodded: "Yes, it's him. I'm very impressed with this refrigerator. There's a big hole in the lower freezer partition, so the price is very cheap. I gave it 200 yuan."

"It's really strange. I've been in this business for so many years, and this is the first time I've seen a partition that can be broken."

After receiving the confirmation, Chen Yi asked: "Is the refrigerator still there?"

The employee nodded: "Yes, yes, we haven't decided how to deal with it yet, whether to repair it or dismantle it and recycle the parts. The overall function of the refrigerator is quite good. It would be a pity to dismantle it."

Chen Yi was relieved and said: "This refrigerator is related to a case we are investigating, so we will transport it back first."

"As for your losses, someone will come to you to compensate you later."

Employee: "Okay, okay, just take it away. The boss told us, I will open the door."

After saying that, he took out the key and stepped forward.

Something worth 200 yuan involves the criminal investigation detachment. Of course, they can't just sit around and cause trouble for themselves.

The shop opened and everyone walked in.

Under the guidance of employees, Chen Yi stood in front of an old refrigerator.

He reached out to open the lower freezer, and what he saw was a fixed partition with a big hole in it.

The corpse was placed horizontally, with legs extending out of the hole. Guo Jiayin's body shape could definitely accommodate it perfectly.

Chen Yi looked coldly and turned to look at the door frame. There were two white and yellow solid objects on it.

If nothing else, it should be strong glue, which not only prevents the movers from opening the refrigerator when they are idle, but also prevents the body from being shaken and knocking open the refrigerator door by itself.

"Ship it back!" Chen Yi waved.

This Du Caibin is really messy and messy.

　You... have a special liking for sewers, not that case... you won't use it if you are so famous, even if it is used, it will be a big change.
