Chapter 425: Fake Crime Scene

"Ms. Zhang, the information you provided is very important."

"Calm down a bit. I have something here that you need to identify..."

"This... this watch, do you recognize it?"

Take out the photo of the watch that Li Baoguo was wearing after his death and hand it to Zhang Yanhui.

Taking the photo, Zhang Yanhui looked at it carefully.

After a moment: "I recognize it."

"This is my husband's watch."

"I gave it to him on his birthday last year."

"The watch strap has his birthday date on it, and I customized it specially."

"But he only wears it when he is at work, and he takes it off and puts it on the shoe cabinet at the door after get off work."

Sure enough.

When Chen Yan first found the watch on the left wrist of the deceased at the crime scene, he felt something was wrong.

How can you wear a watch while taking a bath?

In this case, it is very likely that Li Baoguo had been wearing the watch on his hand when he died.

And Zhang Yanhui said that Li Baoguo never wore a watch after returning home.

"Will Li Baoguo take off his watch immediately?"

Zhang Yanhui nodded: "He will take it off after entering the house."

"It has become a habit."

In this case...

Li Baoguo should have been killed when he entered the house?

Otherwise, Li Baoguo's watch could not be worn on his hand, but should be on the shoe cabinet at the door.

Or, the watch was put on Li Baoguo's hand by the murderer after his death.

But, is it necessary for the murderer to do this?

Definitely not!

Because it does not conform to normal logic.

After killing Li Baoguo, the murderer turned around and walked out of the bathroom, took the watch from the shoe cabinet, and put it on Li Baoguo?

Why?

This may not only leave fingerprints on the watch, but also does not conform to the normal psychology of the murderer.

Because, no matter who it is, as long as the crime scene is not their own home.

After killing someone, the first thing they want to do is to leave the scene.

Unless the other party wants to destroy the body or rearrange the scene.

But even if it is the latter, every step of the murderer has a purpose.

Wearing a watch...

It will not affect the police's judgment, nor has any other effect.

Therefore, the watch on Li Baoguo's hand was probably worn all the time.

He had never taken it off.

In this case, combined with the information provided by Zhang Yanhui.

Li Baoguo should have been killed as soon as he returned home on the afternoon of June 19.

"Ms. Zhang, here are a few more photos. Do you think they are Li Baoguo's usual habits?"

Chen Yan showed Zhang Yanhui the photos taken at the scene one by one.

Including the slippers, tea cups, mobile phones and turned-up quilt corners in the bedroom.

"There are no major changes at home."

Zhang Yanhui carefully looked at the details in the photos.

"My husband and I both like cleanliness."

"There hasn't been much change in the decoration of the house."

"Bedroom..."

"Wait!"

Seeing the bedroom photo, Zhang Yanhui frowned: "This cup of tea..."

"Found in our bedroom?"

"Yes, this is the photo we took when your husband was killed."

"Something's wrong!"

"Baoguo doesn't sleep well, so he never drinks tea at night."

"And the book on the bed."

"Although Baoguo has the habit of reading before going to bed, he mostly reads in the study."

"And he just read this book last month, and he won't read it a second time for a while."

Next, Chen Yan asked Zhang Yanhui a lot of detailed questions.

"We found fingerprints of four people in your home besides you and Li Baoguo."

"Two adults and two children."

"Who are they?"

"When did they go to your home?"

"It should be on the evening of the 16th. Baoguo's brother and his family came to our house for dinner."

"My father-in-law and mother-in-law were supposed to come that day."

"But because my mother-in-law caught a cold during those days, she was afraid of infecting her two grandchildren, so she didn't come."

Chen Yan nodded.

On this point, the information provided by Zhang Yanhui is consistent with that provided by Li Changping.

From the current information, only his brother Li Weiguo and his family went to Li Baoguo's home before and after Li Baoguo's death.

"Well, Ms. Zhang, because your home is still under lockdown."

"We suggest that you live with your relatives first, and move back when the case is over."

"Also, please keep your phone open."

"We will notify you as soon as possible if there is any latest news."

Zhang Yanhui nodded, and Chen Yan sent two female detectives to see Zhang Yanhui off.

Conference room.

Chen Yan held the second case analysis meeting.

"At present, the identity of the deceased has been completely confirmed. He is the male owner of the house, Li Baoguo."

"Based on the current on-site evidence, the autopsy report and the information provided by Li Changping and Zhang Yanhui."

"It can be basically determined that Li Baoguo's death was intentional homicide."

"The murderer forged the scene to create the illusion that Li Baoguo died accidentally."

"At the crime scene, no property was lost, and there were no signs of any rummaging in the cabinets."

"Li Baoguo's valuables were not lost."

"The possibility of murder for money can basically be ruled out."

"The remaining possibility is that revenge killing or love killing is more likely."

"Next, we need to advance the case from three aspects."

"First, complete a comprehensive investigation of Li Baoguo's social background and interpersonal relationships as soon as possible."

Chen Yan looked at Wang Hu. He had already made arrangements for this point, and he was just emphasizing it once.

"Second, conduct a detailed investigation of Li Baoguo's father and wife."

There are two main reasons for making this deployment.

First, Li Baoguo is not Li Changping's biological son.

This has been confirmed by the DNA comparison of the two.

So, does Li Changping know about this?

If he doesn't know, it's okay.

But if Li Changping knew that Li Baoguo was not his biological son, why didn't he confess such important information in the interrogation room?

Second, Zhang Yanhui's closed bid evaluation time was too coincidental.

The day before Li Baoguo was killed, she started the closed bid evaluation.

The day after Li Baoguo's body was found, she unsealed and ended the bid evaluation.

The whole process presented a perfect alibi.

"Especially the situation of Zhang Yanhui's closure in the bidding hotel."

"I want to know some of her tracks in the hotel on June 19!"

"Third, check the access control system of the Imperial Family Community."

Chen Yan turned on the projector, and it was the watch worn by Li Baoguo.

"According to the information provided by Zhang Yanhui, Li Baoguo has a habit."

"He only wears a watch when he is at work."

"After getting home from get off work, Li Baoguo would put keys, watches and other items on the shoe cabinet at the door as soon as he entered the house."

"However, the deceased was in the bathtub, and his left hand was still wearing a watch, which means that Li Baoguo was killed before he had time to take off his watch after returning home!"

Of course, this does not rule out the murderer deliberately putting a watch on Li Baoguo.

But as Chen Yan analyzed before, the murderer did not need to put the watch on Li Baoguo's wrist after killing him.

So, it is the most logical reasoning that Li Baoguo was killed as soon as he entered the house.

"Investigate Li Baoguo's whereabouts on June 19."

"Especially after get off work, how he returned home, who went home with him, etc., we must investigate it clearly!"

"Yes!"

Wang Hu, Wang Sheng and others immediately promoted the relevant work according to Chen Yan's arrangement.

And Chen Yan came to the Imperial Family Community again.
