[Chapter 78, Speed ​​​​Train 11-The real murderer]

There are five suspects who killed Li Zhemin, Mrs. Mei, Niu Dapeng, Zheng Weiguo, Liu Yuming, and Shu Ping. Although Shu Ping is the most suspected now, and all the evidence points to him, there may be other holes in this secret room.

Before confirmation, Yu Hanjiang decided to interrogate the suspect again.

He first called Niu Dapeng over and asked calmly: "You said you heard someone going to the toilet next door at midnight last night, and you saw a light through the crack in the door, and there were strange sounds coming from the trash can, right?"

Niu Dapeng nodded: "Yes."

Yu Hanjiang: "What time was it?"

Niu Dapeng scratched the back of his head: "I don't know, I was in a daze and didn't look at the time."

Yu Hanjiang then asked: "Did you hear that Mrs. Mei, who was sleeping on the lower bunk, also went to the bathroom?"

Niu Dapeng pretended to be innocent and said: "No."

Yu Hanjiang raised his head and stared at him coldly: "Some people saw Mrs. Mei and Liu Yuming going to the toilet one after another. You heard someone getting up next door and heard the movement of the trash can on the other side of the carriage, but you couldn't hear you on the lower bunk.

Is there any sound of someone opening the door?"

Niu Dapeng's face changed slightly, which really didn't make sense. He gritted his teeth and said with a sullen face: "I really didn't hear you. I fell asleep in a daze in the middle of the night. I only woke up for a minute or two and fell asleep again soon.

, I don’t know what happened.”

He insisted that he had not heard anything, but Yu Hanjiang, who was experienced in interrogating, knew from the look on his face that he was lying.

Yu Hanjiang said calmly: "You hate Li Zhemin, and you guessed that the person who got up to go to the bathroom last night might be the murderer, so you pretended not to hear it even if you heard it. You want to protect this person, right?"

Niu Dapeng's face instantly turned pale, his lips trembled slightly, but he gritted his teeth and refused to speak.

Yu Hanjiang said: "If you deliberately cover up and fail to cooperate with the investigation, the police can take you to the police station for re-interrogation on the charge of obstructing the investigation. You have to think clearly."

Niu Dapeng was silent for a moment, then finally slumped his shoulders in frustration and said, "I, I did hear Sister Mei going to the toilet."

Yu Hanjiang raised his eyebrows: "Time, number of times?"

"It seems like twice, once around three o'clock, once around four o'clock... I really don't know anything else." He raised his head and glanced at Yu Hanjiang anxiously: "This matter has nothing to do with Sister Mei, right? She is so old.

, my legs and feet are not very good, how can I kill someone?"

Yu Hanjiang said: "Since you think she won't kill anyone, why did you hide her going to the toilet last night?"

Niu Dapeng knew that he was in the wrong and murmured: "I thought this was not important. Isn't it normal for an old man to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night..."

Yu Hanjiang then asked: "The second time, that is, the time before four o'clock, how long did it take for her to go to the toilet and come back?"

Niu Dapeng said: "This time it took a long time, like half an hour. Maybe she had a bad stomach, right? Her gastrointestinal condition is not good."

Yu Hanjiang asked: "Did you hear any other sounds?"

Niu Dapeng thought for a moment and said: "Before Sister Mei went to the toilet for the second time, someone seemed to be going to the toilet in the next room without a light. It should not be Liu Yuming, but this person came back not long after he left. I heard the sound of opening and closing the door.

, less than half a minute before and after.”

Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou looked at each other - it seemed that Zheng Weiguo was going to the toilet next door. He stole the IOU and went to the toilet to destroy it. He found someone coming out of the toilet and quickly returned to the room with a guilty conscience. He went out and returned in less than half a minute.

I can explain it.

Niu Dapeng said seriously: "That's all I know, nothing else."

Yu Hanjiang met his sincere eyes, tentatively believed him, and nodded to let him go back.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Hanjiang interrogated Liu Yuming in Room 2.

Liu Yuming smiled at the beginning and acted like "I am a good citizen": "If you have any questions, just ask."

As a result, Yu Hanjiang asked directly: "Why did you lie?"

Liu Yuming's smile suddenly froze on his face. He quickly adjusted his expression and said with a dry smile: "What do you mean? I didn't lie."

Yu Hanjiang said: "The time you went to the bathroom last night was half past three, not three o'clock."

Liu Yuming pretended to be calm: "Ah... Really? I am old and my memory is not good. I may have remembered it wrong. Sigh... I usually forget this and that. Before I went out this time, my son Qian

I was told to bring a towel and a toothbrush, but I forgot them again, so I had to buy new ones at the station..."

Seeing him changing the topic with evasive eyes, Yu Hanjiang interrupted him directly: "Do you have a bad memory? Can you remember things like this if you lose your watch?"

Liu Yuming was stunned and looked a little embarrassed.

Yu Hanjiang pointed to his watch and said, "Your watch has been in the trash can for most of the night. It's quite clean, and it doesn't get the smell of the trash can."

Liu Yuming touched his nose and explained: "After I found the watch last night, I cleaned it in the sink."

Yu Hanjiang said calmly: "But the person who was using the restroom opposite you said that you went back without washing your hands after going to the restroom, and he didn't see your handwashing watch."

Liu Yuming hurriedly denied: "How is it possible? He didn't see me at all!"

The office suddenly fell into silence, Yu Hanjiang stared at him calmly, and Liu Yuming's face gradually turned pale from calm at the beginning, and then suddenly turned red again.

Yu Hanjiang said: "So, when you went to the toilet, there was indeed someone across from you?"

"..." Liu Yuming wanted to cry but had no tears.

Yu Hanjiang's interrogation almost made him faint. He was led by the other party all the time. He thought the focus was on the watch, but he failed to pay attention to the key point of "the person opposite you is using the toilet", and the other party used text traps to trick him into telling the truth.

.

Yu Hanjiang found that the old man was in a daze, so he tapped the table with his pen and said: "One lie needs countless lies to make up for it, so why not tell the truth - what did you see when you went to the toilet at 3:30 last night?"

Is Shu Ping there?"

Liu Yuming came back to his senses and shook his head hastily: "It's not her, I didn't see clearly!"

Yu Hanjiang raised his eyebrows: "But someone in Car No. 4 saw it clearly and identified it to us. Shu Ping appeared in the bathroom at 3:30 last night and bumped into a nearby trash can."

Liu Yuming's face turned red and white for a while, as if he was having an ideological struggle.

Yu Hanjiang continued: "Shu Ping and Ruirui are good friends, right? When you were pursuing Ruirui, did Shu Ping help you a lot? You and Shu Ping should have a good relationship. Unexpectedly, Li Zhemin dug out

Shu Ping was abandoned by Li Zhemin, and both of you were let down, so you can be regarded as sharing the same fate."

He put the pen on the table, clasped his hands on his chest and looked at Liu Yuming calmly: "So, even if Shu Ping is the murderer, you don't want to come forward and identify her, because Li Zhemin deserves to die, she killed Li Zhemin, and Ruirui died.

You can rest in peace—that’s what you think, right?”

Liu Yuming's body trembled violently, his face full of horror.

Because what the other party said was exactly what he was thinking. This sharp-eyed man seemed to have the ability to read minds, directly piercing his mind. Over the years, he has a gentle wife, a filial son, and his life is still good.

Even though he was happy, he was trying hard to forget what happened at the time, but when he thought of the innocent Rui Rui, his heart felt like a knife.

"Li Zhemin really deserves to die, Ruirui was killed by him!" Liu Yuming recalled the past, his eyes turned red, and he roared like an enraged beast: "When Ruirui married him, Li Zhemin and

I swore that I would treat Ruirui well, and I believed it, and I thought that since they got married, I should bless them!"

"But I didn't expect that Li Zhemin, a well-dressed beast, would actually cheat on Ruirui when she was pregnant! He colluded with a young nurse in the hospital and sent flowers to the nurse every day. Ruirui accidentally bumped into her when she went to the hospital for a prenatal check-up and was furious.

I had to give birth prematurely and almost died in the operating room!"

"She suffered from postpartum depression because of this incident. When I went to see her at that time, she told me that she wanted a divorce... But not long after, she took sleeping pills and died! Because she had depression, the police finally determined

The result is suicide."

"Suicide? How could it be such a coincidence!" Liu Yuming said angrily: "Do you believe it? I don't believe it anyway! It must be the beast Li Zhemin who was afraid that the company's property would not fall into his hands after her divorce, so he forced her to take sleeping pills!"

"..." Xiao Lou had already guessed that Ruirui's death was not simple. He didn't expect that there was such a past event. According to Mrs. Mei, Li Zhemin was the nurse who married Ruirui a year after her death. But in fact

, he cheated on his wife when she was pregnant and was caught by her. Whether Mrs. Mei was unaware of this matter or deliberately concealed it, you have to ask Mrs. Mei to confirm.

"Li Zhemin should have died a long time ago! If it weren't for the fact that the child is still too young, I should have killed him when Ruirui left!"

Liu Yuming was so excited that he clenched his fists tightly and his fingers almost pinched into his palms. He obviously hated Li Zhemin deeply.

On the surface, he was on good terms with Li Zhemin, probably because he wanted to pay more attention to Ruirui's only son. He got married a few years after Ruirui's death. It can be seen that this man was actually very affectionate, and it took several years before he left.

He came out and was moved by his wife who was tenderly pursuing him.

Yu Hanjiang was not in a hurry to ask questions. After he finished speaking, he whispered: "Is there anything unusual about the death of Ruirui's father?"

Liu Yuming took a deep breath to calm down and said: "Mr. Lin has bone cancer and has metastasized to many places throughout his body. People from our company visited him before he died. He was sent to the intensive care unit and was supported for a month.

, and finally left without being rescued."

It seems that the death of Ruirui's father was a normal death from illness. Ruirui's death was probably the result of Li Zhemin's manipulation.

He had already cheated on her at that time. Once Ruirui divorced, he would not be able to control the company because Lin always left the company to his daughter. Legally speaking, this is a "donated" property. Property donated by parents to their children alone does not count.

The husband and wife's joint property can apply for non-division in the event of divorce. If Li Zhemin cheated on the property, it would be considered a marital fault and he would not get a penny.

As soon as Ruirui got divorced, he would have nothing. So, he secretly or forcibly gave her an overdose of sleeping pills, and then relied on depression, saying that she committed suicide due to depression. As long as Ruirui died, he, as his spouse, would

It is the heir to the property.

While Xiao Lou was taking notes, he felt a chill in his heart.

This Li Zhemin is really inhumane for money!

Yu Hanjiang asked: "Have you ever told Li Mo about this matter?"

Liu Yuming immediately shook his head: "No, I don't want Xiao Mo to suffer. His father killed his mother. It would be difficult for anyone to accept it!"

Yu Hanjiang expressed his understanding and continued to ask: "In your opinion, what kind of person is Li Mo?"
