Chapter 146 Some people are alive, but they are already dead.

Chapter 146: Some people are alive, but they are already dead.

As he said this, Su Chen began to think.

The information given by the police was very detailed, and they also gave many considerations, such as the murderer was someone else, and the deceased might have committed suicide.

However, Su Chen still felt that what happened to Chen Kang and Zhao Ping was not completely clear yet, and it was too early to turn to other research directions at this time.

"You can compare these two people and list their conditions."

"First, at the time of the deceased's death, Chen Kang was exterminating rats, which can be proven by the video; and Zhao Ping was at home alone, and the surveillance in the corridor can confirm this."

"Of course, it can also be said that Zhao Ping's alibi is insufficient because he could have left through the window after entering the house."

"But for a sixty-year-old man living on the seventh floor, I don't think that's a good approach."

"Second, police investigation results show that Chen Kang has not left Baijin City in the past year; and Zhao Ping just returned from Jinling City not long ago."

"I think this is a very interesting point. It is about the same time as the murderer of the Platinum Case appeared."

"However, the murderer of the Platinum case has been lurking in the police station for a long time, and Zhao Ping's travel time was very short, so it doesn't seem right."

"Third, it is the relationship with the deceased. It seems that Chen Kang does not know the deceased now, while Zhao Ping can be said to be an enemy."

"A few days ago, the deceased Zhao Sihai took the initiative to find Zhao Ping. The two had an unpleasant conversation, as customers in the canteen can testify."

"There were three customers present at the time, two women and one man. The police found the two female customers and testified, but the male customer... was not found because his back was to the camera."

"Little girl, what do you think is the most critical part here?"

Su Chen turned around and asked the little girl sitting next to him.

The little girl thought for a moment and said:

"It seems like it's time."

"That's right."

Su Chen nodded in agreement:

"The time of committing the crime is the basis for the possibility of committing the crime. If the alibi of these two people is established, then they have no possibility of becoming the murderers."

"Whether the police want to change direction or continue to investigate these two people, they must first figure out this matter."

"This is also our primary research goal."

"Brother Su Chen, I don't quite understand here. What do you want to say?"

The little girl asked with some confusion.

Su Chen said slowly:

"Little girl, sometimes, the time of death may not be the real time of death."

"Have you ever heard a saying - some people are alive and they are dead."

As soon as she said this, the little girl was stunned for a moment, feeling that her CPU was about to smoke.

"ah?"

Su Chen explained to her:

"In view of the strange murder scene, I have reason to suspect that the murderer used some method to... hinder expert Qin Ming's inference of the time of death."

With that said, he closed the phone and stood up from his seat.

"Hey, brother Su Chen, where are you going?"

The little girl came to her senses and asked.

Su Chen stretched his arms and walked towards the door:

"Nothing, just going to the toilet."

······

At the same time, a certain household in the residential building at the south gate of Guangming Primary School.

When he returned home at noon, Zhao Ping closed the door feeling a little uneasy.

Afterwards, he lit a cigarette and started searching the progress and findings of the case handled by the Baijin City Police on his home desktop.

However, since major ongoing cases were kept secret by the public security organs, Zhao Ping searched for nearly an hour and did not get any useful information.

He sighed and put out the cigarette he didn't know which number he had in the ashtray.

Just when Zhao Ping was lying on the bed, planning to rest for a while.

Suddenly his phone rang.

Zhao Ping saw that the caller was the Baijin City Public Security Bureau, so he quickly sat up and connected the phone.

On the other side of the phone, a man's voice came:

"Zhao Ping, we found a red down jacket on the body. After testing, it was found that your fingerprints were on it."

"Comrade police, this down jacket was taken away by Zhao Sihai when he came to my house to make trouble."

Zhao Ping quickly explained:

"After we had an argument in the canteen, when I went home at night, Zhao Sihai blocked the door of my house and acted rogue..."

······

On the edge of the old town, a bungalow and a murder scene.

Gan Qi hurriedly walked to Lu Ping and reported:

"Deputy Director Lu, news just came from Expert Qin that they, together with the Jinling City Public Security Bureau, have determined the origin of the down jacket."

When Lu Ping heard this, he quickly put down what he was doing and asked him to continue talking.

Gan Qi said:

"This down jacket was sold at the Jinling City Center Clothing Store a week ago, and the payee was Zhao Ping."

"I bought an out-of-season model, which is cheaper."

This aspect shows that Zhao Ping is very economical in spending money... Lu Ping frowned and said:

"If Zhao Sihai was angry and snatched Zhao Ping's newly bought clothes because he couldn't get the money, I can understand that."

"But the problem is that it's summer now. It's impossible for Zhao Sihai to steal it and wear it for no reason."

"So either the murderer put these clothes on Zhao Sihai, or Zhao Sihai put them on for special reasons."

Ganzi concluded.

Lü Ping nodded, and then, as if he suddenly thought of something, his tone became a little hurried:

"Zhao Sihai can wear this particular down jacket, is there any unspoken secret between him and Zhao Ping?"

Gan Qi also said helplessly:

"This Zhao Ping is too good at hiding things. He is willing to admit the matter of clothes only when the time comes."

"He didn't mention the matter of clothes at all when he was questioned yesterday. Isn't this making it more difficult for us to solve the case and wasting time."

Lü Ping also sighed and said nothing.

During the case, police officers always encounter various problems, big and small, and run back and forth.

Otherwise, why do people say that you can't be a criminal police if you are not in good health?

First-line criminal police are very hard-working and tired. Every year, they can find out a lot of problems with their bodies during physical examinations.

"I think we should go to Zhao Ping directly and ask the matter face to face."

After Lü Ping gave an order, he immediately stood up, and Zhen Haolin, Gan Qi, and several police officers on the scene followed him.

A group of people quickly got into the car and drove towards Zhao Ping's home.

······

On the other side.

Inside the Baijin City Public Security Bureau.

Su Chen leaned against the door of the compartment and slowly exhaled, ignoring the noise outside.

He closed his eyes, immersed in his thoughts, and suddenly opened his eyes when the light around him dimmed.

A different world had already appeared in front of him, and he returned to the crime scene.

"I feel that I am getting more and more proficient. When I was in Jinling City before, I had to enter the star map room first."

"Now I can directly trace back to the scene where the incident occurred."

Su Chen stepped through the door and walked towards the swaying hanging corpse in the middle of the house.
