Chapter 277 The Truth Is Always Cruel

O blood type.

Among all the people involved in this case, Chen Yan had only come into contact with one.

Qin Ru!

Yes, that beautiful wife of Zhang Runsheng.

In the file that Wang Gang gave to Chen Yan, there was a brief introduction about Qin Ru.

Her blood type was O blood type.

But how could this be possible?

Qin Ru was the murderer?

Chen Yan recalled the scene when he first saw Qin Ru the day before yesterday.

This woman was like a mountain spring, with big black and transparent eyes without a trace of impurities.

In her, Chen Yan felt the simplicity and kindness of the rural people.

How could such a woman be the murderer?

And that chubby child...

Moreover, from the evidence found at the scene, Qin Ru did not seem to be the murderer.

According to the analysis of Qiao Shouhe's body, his back of the head had been hit hard, and the murder weapon was the iron clamp.

But this was not a fatal injury.

There was a scratch on Qiao Shouhe's fourth rib, which showed that the sharp knife had been deeply stabbed into Qiao Shouhe's body at that time.

This knife was the final fatal injury.

And how did Qin Ru, a woman, do all this?

You know, Qiao Shouhe was 25 years old at the time, which was when his physical condition was the best.

Even if he drank half a catty of white wine, Qin Ru could not easily kill him.

However, judging from the place where Qiao Shouhe buried the body, it was only about one thousand meters away from Zhang Songlin's greenhouse.

In this case, is it possible that Zhang Songlin's family killed Qiao Shouhe together?

And Qin Ru was injured by the sharp knife during the fight, so blood was left on the sharp knife?

"Chaoyang," Chen Yan picked up the phone and called Zhang Chaoyang: "Check the health centers and hospitals near Xinjian Village."

"Did you see Qin Ru in the early morning or during the day on May 4th five years ago?"

Five years later, some blood information can still be collected on the sharp knife, which proves that the sharp knife must have been stained with a lot of blood at that time.

So, if it was Qin Ru, then it should be a relatively large wound.

In this case, there is a high probability that she would seek medical treatment.

Then, finding this medical record is a breakthrough!

An hour later, Wang Gang's investigation of the ring information had not yet returned, but Zhang Chaoyang had good news.

"Captain Chen!" Zhang Chaoyang did not return to the second detective team, but called Chen Yan as soon as he found the results: "I found it!"

"I'll send the registration records and medication records of that year to your mobile phone."

A moment later, Chen Yan's WeChat notification sounded.

There were three photos.

The first one was a photo of the registration information.

On the morning of May 4th five years ago, Qin Ru registered for emergency treatment at Lingshui Town Hospital.

The second one was Qin Ru's diagnosis.

The right hand was scratched by a sharp weapon, the bone was exposed, disinfection and suture...

The third one was a drug list, anti-inflammatory drugs, tetanus...

On the morning of May 4th, the time was 6:34!

"Immediately summon Zhang Songlin, Zhang Runsheng and his son, and Zhang Runsheng's wife Qin Ru!"

The chain of evidence that confirmed Chen Yan's reasoning was already conclusive, and the rest was to find the motive.

Qin Ru must have been present at the scene of Qiao Shouhe's death.

However, could Qin Ru alone complete the murder, decompose the body, and dig a three-meter-deep pit to bury it?

Impossible.

So, she must have an accomplice.

As the reporter, Zhang Songlin and his son were suspects.

Less than an hour later, Chen Yan met Zhang Songlin in the interrogation room.

Although it was only one day after meeting Zhang Songlin again, Chen Yan felt that he had aged a little.

Although there were many wrinkles on his face, Zhang Songlin's eyes were shiny and he smiled kindly.

But today, although Zhang Songlin still smiled kindly, the light in his eyes became less.

"Hello, Officer Chen, we meet again..."

Zhang Songlin took the initiative to greet Chen Yan.

"Zhang Songlin, I asked you to come here today..."

"Officer Chen," Zhang Songlin interrupted Chen Yan, still smiling: "I know why."

"You dug a hole in the bush the day before yesterday, and I knew you would find me sooner or later..."

To Chen Yan's surprise, Zhang Songlin did not hide anything and explained everything clearly.

"That night, the weather was very hot..."

Zhang Songlin's memory was very clear, and he did not miss any details.

"Runsheng and Xiaoru had just gotten married not long ago, and they didn't have any children at that time."

"In May, we planted some off-season vegetables and fruits in the greenhouse."

"Every night at midnight, we had to adjust the intensity of the light."

According to Zhang Songlin's account, that night, Zhang Songlin's family of three adjusted the lights of the two greenhouses and prepared to rest.

Because the weather was hot, he sweated a lot when doing farm work.

Zhang Runsheng built a simple shower shed outside the greenhouse.

"After finishing the work, Xiaoru went to take a shower..."

"Runsheng and I drank some wine outside Dapeng..."

Zhang Songlin smiled, but the smile was a little bitter: "We rural people work during the day, and if we don't drink at night, our bodies will ache and we can't sleep at all."

"Who would have thought that in less than a drink... something happened..."

That night, Zhang Songlin and Zhang Runsheng were drinking, and they heard a life-saving scream from Qinru's bathing place!

"At that time, I didn't think much, Runsheng picked up the pliers beside him and rushed over."

"I also picked up the sharp knife for cutting meat and ran over..."

As a result, under the moonlight, the two saw a scene that was about to burst into flames.

The shower shed had collapsed long ago.

Qin Ru was being pressed to the ground by a black shadow.

"At that time, the black shadow was pinching Xiao Ru's neck and was about to do something beastly."

Zhang Songlin gritted his teeth, and his eyes were still full of resentment even now: "Runsheng threw the iron pliers in his hand and hit the back of the black shadow's head."

"The man felt pain and stood up to see, and Runsheng and I were stunned."

"It was Qiao Shouhe, the captain of our Xinjian Village Team!"

"After he got up, he touched the back of his head and slapped Runsheng in the face."

"He also said that he liked Qin Ru and it was Qin Ru's blessing, so we agreed to let Xiao Ru accompany him once, otherwise he would let his father withdraw the greenhouse we contracted."

Even though five years have passed, even though Qiao Shouhe is dead.

However, when Zhang Songlin talked about what happened at that time, his veins still bulged.

"He is such a beast! What does he think of our Zhang family?"

"That bastard thought we would agree, and he actually pulled up Xiaoru who had fallen to the ground and was about to walk into the greenhouse."

"He also said that he had committed a crime, and today he was having fun, so don't provoke him..."

"Runsheng couldn't let Qiao Shouhe take Xiaoru away, so he went up and grabbed Qiao Shouhe. I also went forward, and the result was..."

"Qiao Shouhe snatched the sharp knife from my hand and stabbed Runsheng!"

"I remember what happened at that time very clearly."

"He said that I had just hit someone to death, and it would not be a big deal to kill you two!"

"Fortunately, Xiaoru was quick and grabbed the blade in an instant, preventing Qiao Shouhe from stabbing Runsheng."

"I hurriedly stepped forward to grab the sharp knife and stabbed Qiao Shouhe back..."

"That night, we didn't know why Qiao Shouhe passed by the ridge in the middle of the night."

"But if we don't kill him, our family will suffer."

Huh...

Zhang Songlin exhaled a breath, looking at Chen Yan with a helpless look.

"Officer Chen, you don't know how powerful Qiao Shouhe was in our village back then."

"No woman he liked could escape his clutches."

"No one dared to intervene."

"Even if we called the police, they would just release her after arrest."

"He targeted Xiaoru, and we couldn't do anything..."

"Later, I stabbed him repeatedly with a sharp knife, then took him into the bushes, dug a big hole, chopped him up and buried him."

After listening to Zhang Songlin's confession, Chen Yan frowned deeply.

What happened that night was beyond Chen Yan's reasoning and prediction.

He didn't expect that Qiao Shouhe would be tempted by Qin Ru when he was escaping in the middle of the night.

But, thinking about it carefully, it was reasonable.

On the one hand, Qin Ru was indeed beautiful.

On the other hand, Qiao Shouhe knew that he had killed someone and was about to flee abroad. At this time, it was okay for him to do something bad.

It was even possible that Qiao Shouhe, under the influence of alcohol and fear, did something crazy.

It was just that Chen Yan could hear Zhang Songlin's confession.

He obviously weakened Zhang Runsheng's role in the case.

Zhang Songlin explained the previous details very clearly, but the key process of killing, decomposing the body, digging a pit and burying it was just a sentence without a detailed explanation.

Moreover, there is another more important thing.

That is, if Qiao Shouhe was killed and buried by Zhang Songlin in the early morning of the 4th.

How did his broken arm appear in the pond?

Also, why did Zhang Songlin and his son report the case after fishing the broken arm out?

It is easy to understand that finding the broken arm is nothing more than fearing that others will find it and expose the matter.

But why report the case?

It not only exposes the existence of the case, but also increases his suspicion.

This is not logical!
