Chapter 140 The persistent pursuer 15
From the scene, apart from a few footprints, no other evidence could be found.
Wu Xu died of excessive blood loss. His wound was in the carotid artery in his neck, and no suspected murder weapon was found at the scene.
The most suspicious point is that there was no sign of the victim struggling at the scene. It is not ruled out that the victim was unconscious at the time and there might be hypnotic drugs residue in his body.
These results all need to be verified by the laboratory.
It will take time for the results to come out, and it will also take time for the background investigation and forensic deep autopsy results. Given that there are no signs of outsiders in the environment, the murderer cannot be someone other than them.
After recording their statements, all of them were restricted from leaving for a week.
The three-story lake-view villa where they lived was also sealed off.
They are all suspects now.
When Won Hee was questioned, he mentioned the strange shrimp porridge.
The police collected all the food left in the kitchen.
Yuanxi saw the police focusing on searching the kitchen because of his words, and also saw Xu Sheng’s face turned pale because of the police’s behavior.
"Why do you want to check the kitchen?" Xu Sheng said, "I cooked this morning's meal. Is there any problem?"
Yuanxi didn't need to say anything because the police had already responded.
"Whether there is any problem depends on the test results."
The police are not Xia Yangyang, and they will not stop what they are doing because they feel sorry for her pale face.
Xu Sheng's eyes were filled with anger. She turned back sharply and stared at Zhu Yue and Yuan Xi, as if she knew that they were the ones who brought this up.
"Your reaction is really strange." Yuan Xi said, "Is there really something in the porridge?"
"What did you say? How could Shengsheng do such a thing?" Xia Yangyang stared at Yuan Xi, unwilling to believe it.
"You too, you've been acting weird since you came back yesterday." Won Hee said. "You're not like yourself at all."
Xia Yangyang looked at him puzzledly: "What do you mean?"
He seemed to be completely unaware of the reversal in his attitude towards Xu Sheng, and Yuan Xi looked at Xu Sheng on the scene and finally swallowed what he wanted to say.
This is not the place to voice your doubts.
Moreover, there were traces of Xia Yangyang in Wu Xu's room, which made Yuan Xi unable to let go. He didn't understand, if the murderer was really Xia Yangyang, what was the reason?
"Let's go first." Zhu Yue said, "I have booked a hotel, follow me."
Zhu Yue interrupted his thoughts, grabbed his sleeve and dragged him away from the scene.
Hu Yuqing has already left, and the matter has not been investigated clearly. Yuan Xi is no longer suitable to be with Xia Yangyang and Xu Sheng.
Get in a taxi.
"I don't understand." Yuan Xi said, "I don't understand why I killed Wu Xu?"
Zhu Yue chuckled: "You really don't understand your friends."
Without experiencing hardships and growing up, the male protagonist really seems like a naive naivety.
He would never doubt anything others said.
Yuan Xi lowered his eyes in despair, "You are right, I really don't know anything."
He now felt that Zhu Yue was very mysterious, as if she understood many things.
"Sister Yue, can you tell me what you think?" Yuan Xi said, "I really want to know."
"You should check it yourself." Zhu Yue refused. "Will you really accept and trust everything I say? If you still want to check it, there's no need to waste your breath."
“And what I know is indeed limited.”
Zhu Yue has no interest in teaching children to grow up, she follows the male protagonist only because of the mission.
In fact, she had guessed the truth last night, but the fact that the side quest had not been completed yet made her have some guesses.
I'm afraid the truth can only be found out by the male protagonist.
This world is not like the previous ones, where there were both male and female protagonists. This world only has one male protagonist.
The world seems to favor him.
This is reflected in the fact that many things revolve around him.
She was thinking that this plot in the Lake View Villa was most likely to reasonably lead out the protagonist's master. It was true that without the sachet ghost, the earthbound spirit appeared again. The world plot was particularly strong, and it would lead the protagonist down that path no matter what.
Just like the sachet ghost will attract a master for the male protagonist and discover his powerful physique.
The accident in the villa had the same effect, attracting his future master and leading him to that path.
The only difference is probably that in the sachet ghost incident, the victims sacrificed were the protagonist’s parents, while this time the victims are his friends.
Zhu Yue thought that although Wu Xu deserved to die, being around the male protagonist was really not a good place for ordinary people.
Too dangerous.
Sort of like the Death God elementary school student in her world.
She just hoped the side quest would be completed sooner rather than later.
…………
In the police station's conference room.
"He murdered the person, but he didn't kill him either." Fu Yanqing flipped through the scene photos in his hand and came to this conclusion.
Looking at the puzzled looks of everyone at the scene, Fu Yanqing projected the bloody photos of the death scene onto the large screen behind him.
"The magnetic field at the scene is not right." She said, "The evidence you brought back all showed energy magnetic fields that shouldn't be there. The problem lies with the villa. On the surface, it was Xia who killed him, but the deeper reason is that his mind was affected and his spirit was controlled."
"What should we do with the villa?" The deputy captain at the side couldn't help asking. "If we leave it alone, more people will die in the future."
"I won't just leave it alone." Fu Yanqing said, "Let those young people come again, and I'll see for myself whether it's normal."
"Yes, Professor."
Although footprint science has certain scientific basis, it also has certain limitations.
Footprints may be deformed by the environment, and the characteristics of footprints may also change due to the wear of shoes. Therefore, footprint science can only be used as an auxiliary means of criminal investigation and cannot be used as a basis for identifying suspects.
Convicting a criminal is a very rigorous process that requires a series of legal procedures, including but not limited to investigation, prosecution, and trial.
In this process, there needs to be sufficient evidence to prove the prisoner's crime, and the prisoner also has the opportunity to defend his crime.
There is no sufficient evidence against Xia Yangyang except for a few footprints.
But you can't convict someone based on footprints alone.
Even though Fu Yanqing knew that he had murdered the person with the help of unnecessary forces, she could not do anything to Xia Yangyang without solid evidence.
Besides, the real murderer in this incident is not this young man.
"He is just a puppet being manipulated. He is not the real murderer."
This case can only be transferred to a special department for handling.
If the special department handled the case, Xia Yangyang would even be a victim, and he did not subjectively harm anyone.
Even his body was controlled by an unknown entity.
Fu Yanqing is the head of that special department, and it is a coincidence that she appears here.
She was on a business trip in the next city, and had just solved a big case when she happened to encounter a new case here.
"Professor, everyone is in the interrogation room."
