Chapter 343 The murderer!

About twenty minutes later, two police officers hurriedly walked up to Jia Dongming and Zhao Gang from outside and reported respectfully: "Report! According to what we have learned, the brothers Zhu Liang and Zhu Jun are living in the collective dormitory of the art troupe."

After hearing the report from his subordinates, Jia Dongming immediately ordered Zhao Gang, "Zhao Gang! Send a few people to the dormitory of the art troupe to bring Zhu Liang and Zhu Jun back to the branch. Also arrange for someone to send the body of the deceased back to the branch. I will go home to get the car, and then we will meet at the office."

When Zhao Gang heard Jia Dongming's arrangement, he immediately nodded and replied, "Yes! Deputy Captain! Then you go back and get the car first, and we'll meet at the branch office."

After arranging the follow-up reconnaissance work, Jia Dongming left the crime scene directly and walked quickly towards Compound No. 95.

Soon Jia Dongming returned to Compound No. 95. At this time, the neighbors in the compound were already sitting in the other courtyard with their stools, waiting to watch TV.

Lin Qiuyue, who had just finished dinner, saw Jia Dongming coming back and thought of the conversation she heard in the yard when she was helping to cook dinner in the kitchen. She asked Jia Dongming with curiosity, "Brother Dongming! The man who came to our house before said that his wife was killed. Is this true?"

When Jia Dongming heard Lin Qiuyue asking about the rape and murder that had just happened that night, and saw the curious looks of the whole family, he nodded instinctively and replied, "The deceased was the wife of Cui Hao, the propaganda officer of our steel rolling mill. She worked in the city art troupe. The murderer took advantage of the victim's illness and rested at home today to rape and kill the deceased."

"What! Rape and murder! Brother-in-law! Is this true?" When Lin Qiuyu heard what Jia Dongming said, an expression of horror appeared on her face, and she hurriedly confirmed the news with Jia Dongming.

When Jia Dongming heard Lin Qiuyu's question and saw Lin Qiuyu's horrified expression, he nodded very affirmatively and answered seriously, "This is absolutely true, but we have already locked in the suspect and sent people to arrest him at his residence. I'll come back to eat something, and then I'll go to the Dongcheng Branch immediately to preside over the investigation of the case."

When Lin Qiuyue heard what Jia Dongming said, she learned that Jia Dongming was going to the Dongcheng Branch to take charge of the investigation of the case. She immediately said to Jia Dongming, "Brother Dongming! I've put the food in the pot to heat it up for you. Please wait a moment. I'll bring it out for you."

Jia Dongming had a simple meal at home, then put on his uniform and rode his bicycle towards the Dongcheng Branch.

When Jia Dongming arrived at the Dongcheng Branch, he happened to see Zhao Gang getting off the truck and immediately asked him, "Zhao Gang! Has the suspect been captured?"

Zhao Gang shook his head subconsciously when he heard Jia Dongming's question. He replied seriously, "Deputy Captain! We have just transported the victim's body back to the branch. As for whether the suspect has been successfully captured, there is no news from Li Bin and his team, but I think they should be back soon."

Not long after Jia Dongming returned to the office, Li Bin escorted the Zhu Jun brothers back to the police station.

After Li Bin arranged for the Zhu brothers to be taken to the interrogation room, he immediately went to the office of the Serious Crime Squadron and excitedly reported to everyone waiting for news in the office: "Deputy Captain! Deputy Captain Zhao! The Zhu brothers have been captured by us. Although we haven't started interrogating them yet, based on their reactions when we saw them, I'm sure they are the murderers."

Zhao Gang heard Li Bin's report and saw Li Bin's excited expression. He reminded Li Bin seriously, "Li Bin! When we handle cases, we focus on evidence, not imagination. Before we have solid evidence, we'd better not jump to conclusions."

Jia Dongming heard what Zhao Gang said to Li Bin, and said to Zhao Gang with a smile: "Zhao Gang! Our investigation relies on bold reasoning and careful verification. If you think there is a problem, you can raise it."

Jia Dongming said this and turned to Li Bin and asked, "Comrade Li Bin! Where is the suspect? Let's go and take a look together."

Soon Jia Dongming came to an interrogation room. When he saw the young man handcuffed to the interrogation table, he asked in a stern tone: "Zhu Liang, right? Do you know why we invited you here today?"

When Zhu Liang heard Jia Dongming's question and saw Jia Dongming's eyes that seemed to be able to see through people, he immediately showed a guilty expression on his face. Then he pretended to be confused and said, "Comrade Public Security! We just finished dinner in the regiment cafeteria, and you called us here. How do we know why you invited me here?"

"Pa! Zhu Liang! You'd better be honest. If you don't know why we're looking for you, why did you run away as soon as you saw us? You'd better tell me the truth." Zhao Gang saw Zhu Liang's reckless look, and angrily slapped the table in front of him, asking Zhu Liang in a very stern tone. Zhao Gang's slap really scared Zhu Liang, and he quickly answered: "We two brothers had a fight with people in the compound a few days ago. We thought you were here for revenge, so we turned around and ran away."

Jia Dongming looked at Zhu Liang sitting in the interrogation chair and clearly noticed that Zhu Liang's little finger trembled slightly when he answered questions. Although this small movement was very secretive, it could not escape Jia Dongming's eyes.

Jia Dongming looked at Zhu Liang who was sitting opposite him and asked him with a smile: "Zhu Liang! How old are you this year? Where is your hometown?"

When Zhu Liang heard Jia Dongming's question, he pretended to be a little impatient and replied, "Comrade Public Security! How old am I this year? Where is my hometown? Didn't you check before you came to find me?"

When Jia Dongming heard Zhu Liang's answer and saw that he was not afraid of boiling water, he showed a nonchalant expression on his face. He smiled and said to Zhu Liang, "Zhu Liang! From the looks of you, you are going to continue to resist. Since you don't want to say anything, there is no need for us to continue the discussion. After all, based on what you have done, it is enough to make both of you brothers eat peanuts."

"I did this. It has nothing to do with my brother." When Zhu Liang saw that the police were not playing by the rules and were even planning to take them to the execution ground, he immediately became anxious and took all the responsibility on himself.

Jia Dongming, who was pretending to be ready to leave, heard that Zhu Liang was finally ready to speak, so he sat down at the interrogation table again and asked Zhu Liang seriously, "Zhu Liang! Didn't you say that you didn't know why we were looking for you? Why do you say you know now? You just said that you did it, so tell us what it was?"

When Zhu Liang heard Jia Dongming's question and thought about the crime he had committed, he replied with regret: "Half a year ago, I was introduced by my aunt to Wang Huifang. But because of Cui Hao, that pretty boy, Wang Huifang said she didn't want to date me and then married Cui Hao."

"Because of this incident, I have always held a grudge against that bitch Wang Huifang. This afternoon, I unexpectedly ran into Cui Hao and inadvertently learned from him that Wang Huifang was sick and resting at home. So I took advantage of the fact that there were not many people in Cui Hao's yard at noon and quietly ran to Cui Hao's house to look for Wang Huifang."

"At the time, I just wanted to get Wang Huifang, but I didn't think about killing her. But because I had drunk a little bit of alcohol, I was worried that others might hear him yelling, so I picked up a hammer nearby and knocked Wang Huifang unconscious. Then I took the opportunity to sleep with her."

"I didn't intend to kill her at the time. It was just that after I was done, I found that Wang Huifang was already dead. I was so scared at the time that I simply packed up, took the bloody hammer, and quietly left Wang Huifang's yard when no one was there."

Jia Dongming heard Zhu Liang's confession. Although Zhu Liang's confession was not much different from the situation at the scene, he concealed the truth that Zhu Jun also committed the crime with him.

Jia Dongming narrowed his eyes and stared at Zhu Liang. He said in a cold tone, "Zhu Liang! Just like a person, after knowing that he has killed someone, he is really scared. In that environment, he will definitely flee the scene as soon as possible."

"You just said that you were very scared at the time, so you simply cleaned up the scene and then left the scene with a hammer. If you were so scared, would you still clean up the scene? And the footprints we extracted at the scene, in addition to yours, also included your brother Zhu Jun's footprints."

"According to the clues we collected from the scene, after you two brothers entered Wang Huifang's home, you took advantage of the fact that you were drunk and violently assaulted Wang Huifang. When Wang Huifang tried to call for help, your brother Zhu Jun knocked her unconscious, and then you two brothers sexually assaulted the unconscious Wang Huifang together."

"Afterwards! You were worried that Wang Huifang would report it to the police, so you just killed her. Then, in order to cover up the fact that you sexually assaulted Wang Huifang, you put on her clothes again and even cleaned the crime scene. However, you are not professionals after all. You only remembered to clean the scene, but ignored the footprints you left at the crime scene."

When Zhu Liang heard Jia Dongming's description of the crime, an incredible expression appeared on his face, as if he had seen a ghost. He stared at Jia Dongming who was sitting at the interrogation table and denied it flatly, "Comrade Public Security! I did this alone. It has nothing to do with my brother."

When Jia Dongming heard that Zhu Liang was still trying to cover up Zhu Jun's crime, he said to Zhu Liang in a serious tone, "Zhu Liang! Whether Zhu Jun was involved in this case or not, it's not up to you or us to decide. Only the evidence counts. If we didn't have enough evidence, would we have come after you two brothers?"
