Chapter 318 A Mysterious Family
Although the situation at the scene was horrific, the condition of the bodies was not as complicated as before, so after Gu Nankai and Shang Lu discussed it, they quickly brought all the bodies back to the serious crime team. Although the bodies have been cleared away, the smell of blood in the villa still lingers in the air and is difficult to dissipate for a while.
“When a person dies, it’s like a light going out. I used to hear old people talk about human energy, but I never understood what it was. Now, looking at this empty place, I suddenly understand.
Gu Nankai returned to the villa and stood in the middle of the living room in deep thought when he heard a joking remark beside him. He was slightly stunned. He was a little surprised to hear Wu Qingluan say such a thing, but when he thought about it again, it was indeed the case.
Previously, colleagues had been going in and out searching for clues and taking care of the scene. Even though this was a murder scene where someone had just died, it didn't seem scary at all. But now everyone had evacuated, leaving only a few of them to enter the scene again. Even though the house faced north and south, the sun was shining brightly and the house was bright, but the few people standing here still felt a slight chill, not to mention that the smell of blood in the air had not yet dissipated.
It was clearly a good home, full of laughter and joy, but now there is only coldness and an unspeakable fear. Such a good house has no future.
"Okay, let's take another look, then go back to the Major Crimes Unit."
Gu Nankai didn't know what he was thinking. He just chuckled and asked everyone to look for clues. As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Li Meng and Gao Yuan exclaimed behind him: "Cao Cang, why are you here?"
Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan turned around immediately after hearing Cao Cang's name. Seeing Cao Cang smile, they smiled very embarrassedly: "Cao Mo saw that I was absent-minded and insisted that I help you. I was also anxious, so..."
In fact, everyone could guess it without her saying anything. One wanted to drive them away, while the other wanted to come. It was hard to say what to say about these two siblings. However, Cao Cang always got stuck into a case and couldn't get out of it. Cao Mo should know his brother very well, so he let him come.
Gu Nankai thought of this and didn't say much, but just asked: "What about Cao Mo when you come? Who will take care of her?"
This time Cao Cang felt even more embarrassed. He glanced at Gao Yuan and said, "The aunt that Gao Yuan asked to deliver the meal took better care of Cao Mo than I did. She also said that she could take care of Cao Mo, so I..."
After Cao Mo's operation, although Cao Cang and Gao Yuan did not have any substantive conversation, and no one mentioned the incident before the operation, there always seemed to be something blocking between the two of them. Now he felt very embarrassed when he said this. Gao Yuan was also a little embarrassed at first, but then he thought that this was an opportunity for him.
"Well, I've already told you that you won't suffer any loss or be fooled if you choose me as your brother-in-law!"
With a turn of his head, Gao Yuan had already walked over and put his arm around Cao Cang's shoulders, speaking to Cao Cang with a wink on his face. The inexplicable rift between the two seemed to have disappeared completely with his inexplicable winks.
Gu Nankai and the others also smiled secretly and didn't say anything more. Instead, they quickly introduced the general situation to Cao Cang. After understanding the situation, everyone began to observe the scene again to see if they could find some new clues.
Although it was a sunny and clear sky outside, a murder had just happened in the house, so it was much colder and more eerie than outside. Several people were silent and checked separately.
Gu Nankai paused where he was, and instead of going upstairs, he turned around and walked to the gate to observe it.
There was no damage and no signs of picking the lock.
The only problem was that although the surveillance camera at the door was not damaged, there was something stuck on it. Gu Nankai pursed his lips, found a chair from the living room and stepped on it, only to find that the surface of the camera had indeed been tampered with. It was a one-way mirror sticker that was not easy to find. It was difficult to detect with such a sticker, which was much easier for the murderer than damaging the camera.
He slowly peeled off the film, narrowing his eyes slightly . The murderer seemed very cautious, but he was a little careless in the handling of the camera. What did the murderer want to show? Was he provoking the police? Or was he confident in his behavior?
Gu Nankai pondered for a while, but still couldn't figure out any reason, so he finally walked back into the villa.
As soon as he entered, he looked around again. When he found Cao Cang, Cao Cang also had a question in his mind, so he spoke at the same time: "Boss, how do you think the murderer got in?"
"How did the murderer get in?"
The two people asked their questions at the same time, and were both stunned. Soon they smiled at each other. Gu Nankai chuckled: "You also think that the murderer entering the villa is suspicious."
Cao Cang nodded and said, "Indeed, in addition to the main door in the living room on the first floor, there is also a basement exit to enter and exit the villa. I have just checked the basement door and there is no sign of it being pried open. In other words, there is no sign of either entrance being pried open, which proves that the murderer had a key to enter the villa."
"It is also possible that someone opened it specially." Gu Nankai followed up Cao Cang's words. Cao Cang's face changed slightly and he looked at Gu Nankai with some confusion.
Gu Nankai explained to him: "The relationship between Zhao Haicheng and Mo Zixin is dead in name only. They both have new relationships. It is not ruled out that their respective boyfriends and girlfriends came to Zhao's house at that time. Moreover, the chat records between Mo Zixin and her boyfriend on her phone vaguely revealed the fact that they met in the middle of the night."
Cao Cang sighed softly and said jokingly, "If you don't have any feelings for each other, just separate them. Your two children are already this old and still live together. Aren't you afraid that the children will see you meeting in your own home in the middle of the night and embarrass you?"
Gu Nankai smiled again, patted Cao Cang's shoulder, and also had some teasing in his heart: "People like them mostly want to save face, otherwise they wouldn't go to so much trouble to create the impression that their family is harmonious in front of outsiders. It's probably due to business needs. We'll know the reason after investigating later."
In fact, they knew this was the reason without any investigation. Cao Cang curled his lips and felt a little sad.
"By the way, Boss, I heard there is a survivor. Is he the younger brother of this family?"
Cao Cang suddenly remembered what Gao Yuan had just told him and asked Gu Nankai.
"Yes, he was sleeping when the police arrived and had no idea what was going on at home. Strangely, his door was locked. But our people at the hospital sent news that his condition was very bad and it was not suitable for questioning at the moment."
"Yes, waking up to find that the whole family had been killed is quite a shock." Cao Cang thought about it and it was indeed true. Anyone who encountered such a thing would not be able to recover for a while, and it might even be a nightmare for a lifetime. But he immediately thought of a doubt: "But why is his room so complicated? Is it a habit or some other reason?"
Gu Nankai shook his head: "It's not clear yet. I'm going to go take another look. You are an expert on traces. Come with me and take a look."
Cao Cang felt a little embarrassed when he was praised by him, but he didn't say much. He quickly responded and went to Zhao Zixuan's room again with Gu Nankai.
Cao Cang went to check the door. Gu Nankai suddenly thought of something. After telling him, he immediately went to the room where the other three victims were to check. Not long after, he came back, and at this time Cao Cang had obviously made a discovery as well.
"Boss, judging by the degree of wear on the inside of the door lock, it is certain that the owner of the bedroom does not often lock the door before sleeping."
