“Human Observer Mission” takes you to follow the footsteps of the police investigation, stripping the cocoon, clearing away the fog, and approaching the truth!
1. Mysterious Call
On August 5, 2013, Lao Guo was having lunch and watching TV in the family area
of South Coal Mine in Xilinhot City. Although the weather was a little cloudy, he was in a particularly good mood.
Today, he first recovered a long-overdue debt, then sold a brick ticket worth 100000 yuan, and received a deposit of 46000 yuan.
Otherwise, people say, “Good things come in pairs!”! The more Lao Guo thinks about it, the more beautiful he is.
At this time, his mobile phone rang suddenly, Lao Guo picked it up and saw that it was a strange number.
Old Guo, whose real name is Guo Yingjie, is less than 50 years old this year.
He and his wife, Wang Xiulan, are both locals. Both of them work in the brick factory in the mine. Lao Guo is on night duty, and his wife is mainly responsible for the sale of new bricks.
Usually, Lao Guo will also help his wife to sell new bricks to some construction sites around him. He has a lively mind and is willing to bear hardships. People often come to him specially to buy bricks.
So when a strange number came, he didn’t care, thinking that it might be another business.
The phone was connected, and a familiar voice came from inside.
The man did not know what to say, but Lao Guo looked happy.
He hung up the phone in a hurry and ran outside in his slippers without even changing his shoes.
At the door, Lao Guo and his wife almost bumped into each other.
He didn’t have time to explain too much to his wife, so he hurried into his black Hyundai sedan and drove away.
Looking at the car far away, Wang Xiulan shook her head helplessly, where did she know that this was the last time she saw her husband!
Guo Yingjie drove all the way and soon came to the door of the Southern Suburb Office, which was not too far away from home.
After waiting for a while, he saw a strange man coming towards him from a distance. The
man, who looked about forty years old, came over and said hello to Guo Yingjie, saying that he was a friend of the man who had asked him out.
The man and Guo Yingjie said that the person who asked him out had something to do now, so he asked himself to pick him up.
Guo Yingjie did not think much about it, so he followed the man forward. The dark clouds in the
sky gathered more and more, and the more they walked, the more remote they were.
The man led Guo Yingjie to a courtyard covered with weeds beside the wall. He let Guo Yingjie into the courtyard and quietly inserted the gate. Guo Yingjie, who was walking excitedly in front of him, did not notice it at all. There was no light in the
dark room. Guo Yingjie went in and saw a man standing there. The familiar figure was the one who called him.
However, before he could come forward to greet him, what came into view was a very ferocious face.
Guo Yingjie finally felt something was wrong, but it was too late. The man who
had been following him in silence suddenly rushed over, threw him to the ground from behind, and tied his hands and feet with tape prepared in advance.
Guo Yingjie struggled and tried to get up to resist. He broke away from the tape, but was soon under control again.
Then he was kicked in the head and chest by the man and lost the ability to resist.
The man taped Guo Yingjie’s arms and upper body together, tied his legs in the same way, and sealed his mouth with tape.
Subsequently, the two men jointly carried Guo Yingjie to the bed in the inner room, pulled off the tape on his mouth, and asked him if he had a bank card.
Guo Yingjie told them that he had cash in his car, totaling 56000 yuan.
So the man on the phone went to the car to confirm, while the other man stayed in the house to guard Guo Yingjie.
After a while, the man on the phone came back. He nodded to his companion who was squatting there smoking to indicate that the money had been found, and then turned his eyes to Guo Yingjie.
Although the light in the room is very dim, at the moment, Guo Yingjie clearly saw the murderous look in each other’s eyes.
He kept begging for mercy, hoping that the other party would spare his life, and swearing that he would never tell.
However, looking at the pleading Kuo Ying-chieh, the man’s face was expressionless, and he only said coldly, “Strangle him.”.
The squatting man took two puffs of the cigarette in his hand, threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stood up and took out a piece of thin wire from the house, wrapped it around Guo Yingjie’s neck, and then tightened it. The desire to
survive makes Guo Yingjie twist his body desperately, trying to break away from the shackles of his hands and feet, but to no avail.
His eyes widened with fear, and he could not believe that what had happened to him was true until he died.
About more than a minute later, Guo Yingjie stopped struggling, and the man who strangled him reached out his nose and shook his head at his companion. The man on the
phone was afraid that Guo Yingjie was not dead, so he took the wire and strangled it for a while before releasing his hand. The
two men moved Guo Yingjie’s body aside and began to discuss what to do next.
Two people think, Guo Yingjie is likely to have come out to see who and the place to meet his wife, since the paper can not wrap up the fire, it is better to simply get Wang Xiulan to solve.
So, after discussion, the man who called drove Guo Yingjie’s car to pick up Wang Xiulan.
Guo Yingjie’s home is next to National Highway 303. Along the way, the man deliberately avoided the surveillance on the main road and made a detour from the village path.
At this time, the gloomy sky has been drizzling,
Wang Xiulan is in the house to hang the clothes just washed on the clothesline, suddenly saw a figure came in.
She thought it was Lao Guo who came back, and just wanted to blame him for running out without saying a word, which made her worry for a long time.
After seeing who was coming, she quickly put down her clothes and greeted them warmly.
The man told her that Lao Guo had drunk too much in his place and could not walk. He couldn’t move it alone, so he came to pick her up and pulled Lao Guo back. As soon as
Wang Xiulan heard this, she thanked the man and scolded Lao Guo for not drinking properly.
She changed her shoes and locked the door. When she reached the gate, she suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to turn off the light in the inner room.
The man told her that he would be back soon, so Wang Xiulan did not turn back and drove to the old house with the other party.
When Wang Xiulan saw her husband, whose eyes were wide open and whose breath was already gone, she was extremely frightened, but before she could shout out, a thin wire tightly strangled her neck. The couple disappeared
on the same day. As
night falls, the city of Xilinhot is brightly lit.
A group of people are in a restaurant finger-guessing game, drinking, shouting, in the middle is a man named Lin Qiang.
Lin Qiang was already drunk and his eyes were blurred, but he still kept pouring his glass into his mouth amid the noise of the crowd. Someone
next to him chatted in a low voice, saying that he was reluctant to buy a good brand when he saw Lin Qiang smoking at ordinary times, so why did he treat him to dinner so generously today. When
Lin Qiang heard this, he blushed and shouted to the crowd, “I know you despise me!”! I’m telling you, I just made a big deal, and now I have plenty of money! Then
he took out a wad of money and threw it into the air. In an instant, red hundred-dollar bills fell to the ground one after another.
Lin Qiang’s behavior caused the surrounding diners to look askance, some people whispered, some people began to covet the money on the ground, and some people accused Lin Qiang’s behavior of disturbing the restaurant environment. There was a fierce conflict between the
two sides, and someone took out his mobile phone and dialed the alarm phone.
At this time, Guo Yingjie’s black modern car is driving in the vast night. The man
driving the car lit a cigarette and held it in his mouth. He looked at the thick wads of money in the passenger seat with an evil and greedy smile.
2. Clean scene
On August 7, 2013, early in the morning in the family area
of South Coal Mine, Wang Xiulan’s brother dialed his sister’s mobile phone again.
Yesterday, the cart driver who often contacted his brother-in-law Guo Yingjie called him and said that Lao Guo had made an appointment with him to go to the brick factory to pull bricks, but no one appeared and the phone was turned off.
Wang Xiulan’s brother listened and thought that maybe Guo Yingjie’s mobile phone was out of power.
But the driver of the cart told him that he could not contact Lao Guo and his wife at about 3 P. M. from the beginning of the day.
Wang Xiulan’s brother dialed his sister’s brother-in-law’s phone at that time, and it was indeed turned off.
He called his relatives and friends and asked them again and again, but no one knew where they had gone.
In the past, the couple had traveled far, but they usually did not turn off their mobile phones, and when they arrived at the place, they would call back to report that they were safe. This time, the situation was indeed somewhat different. What came from the
phone was still “the number you dialed has been turned off,” and Wang Hsiu-lan’s brother was somewhat worried. It suddenly occurred to
him that his sister and brother-in-law were down-to-earth and had a good income, and that the couple were usually diligent and thrifty, and that they had a little money in the whole mining area.
Has my sister and brother-in-law been kidnapped? Wang Xiulan’s brother suddenly had a bad idea in his mind.
But these two days he has not received a blackmail call, think of here, he is very anxious.
Wang Xiulan’s brother decided to go to his sister’s house immediately to see what had happened.
He called several relatives and went to the door of his sister’s house and saw that the gate was open. The residents in the family area of the
coal mine are basically old residents, and the public security is better, so even if they are not at home, they are generally used to not locking the courtyard door, only locking the house door.
Walking into the courtyard, they saw that the door was locked, so someone climbed in through the window, found the spare key and opened the door.
They looked for a circle inside and outside the house, neither saw Guo Yingjie and his wife, nor found anything unusual, so they locked the door and left.
Although did not find anything unusual, but Wang Xiulan’s brother heart is always uneasy, after careful consideration, he still called the police.
It was Zhong Hongbo, deputy captain of the Criminal Police Brigade of the Xilinhot Public Security Bureau, who quickly led the investigators to the scene.
This is a common bungalow courtyard in the north, consisting of a courtyard and two rooms inside and outside. Investigators
saw that there was no sign of external damage to the locks on the gates and doors of the courtyard. From this,
they judged that the couple should not be kidnapped, but go out peacefully by themselves.
After receiving permission, the police entered the house for investigation.
As soon as they entered the door, the investigators saw an electric bicycle parked in the middle of the outer room.
Wang Xiulan’s brother said that the car belonged to his sister when they came in the morning. The car was parked in the yard, and he pushed it into the house.
Investigators noticed that the key of the electric bicycle was inserted in the keyhole.
After checking, the car has electricity and can be used normally, and there are no suspicious traces on the car body. Next
to the car is a tea table and a sofa. The things on the
sofa were neat, and there were several pairs of socks and a knife on the tea table.
After on-site inspection, no blood was found on the knife, and the police judged that it should be put on the tea table by the couple for daily convenience.
On the ground between the electric bicycle and the tea table, there is a washtub, beside which there are some clothes and sheets, and the clothes that have just been washed are hanging on the clothesline in the house.
The police judged that the hostess had just washed her clothes before she went out and had not had time to dry them all. Everything looked normal in
the outer room, and a pair of men’s leather shoes and a pair of women’s slippers were placed at the door leading to the inner room. Men’s leather shoes and women’s slippers
left between the inner and outer rooms.. The men’s leather shoes and women’s slippers
left between the inner and outer rooms were strange to the investigators when the couple went out in slippers and normal shoes.
But on this basis alone, it is difficult to determine whether the couple left home together or one after another.
However, the police speculated that since Guo Yingjie was wearing slippers out of the door, then he may not go too far.
Walking into the inner room, the surveyors saw that this was the bedroom of the couple. The room was not big, at most a dozen square meters. There is a double bed near the door, and the furnishings are compact and simple.
After careful examination, there was no sign of turning or fighting. The police also found a knife on the low cabinet in front of the
double bed, but after the same careful identification, no blood was found on the knife.
In addition, there are half a bottle of beer and a pair of chopsticks on the low cabinet, as well as a small pile of leftover bones. There are several rolls and ribs in the plastic bag next to them.
Wang Xiulan’s brother said that his sister never drank.
Accordingly, the police judged that it should be the male host Guo Yingjie who ate and drank at that time. Under
normal circumstances, people will try to finish the beer after opening it, and this bottle of unfinished beer shows that Guo Yingjie should have left in the middle of the meal.
In the following investigation, Wang Xiulan’s brother checked and confirmed that Guo Yingjie and his wife’s daily necessities and clothes were not missing.
Property has not been lost, there are no traces of outsiders in the home, not to mention any blood, it seems that the couple also lost contact after they went out of the house.
This result makes Zhong Hongbo frown, according to his years of experience in handling cases, the scene of the case will leave some clues.
However, this scene is too clean! Everything seemed so normal, but it made him feel a little uneasy.
At this time, Wang Xiulan’s brother seemed to suddenly remember something.
He told Zhong Hongbo and others that when he came in the morning, he saw that the lights and TV in the back room were on.
My sister and her husband usually save water and electricity, which is rare, but he didn’t think too much about it at that time, so he turned it off when he left.
In addition, he also reflected that his sister’s black Hyundai sedan had disappeared, and the car was usually parked at the gate of the courtyard.
Hearing these two situations, Zhong Hongbo’s heart moved. There was nothing abnormal about the TV being on during the day, but it was strange that the lights were still on during the day.
In addition, the disappearance of the vehicle also means that Guo Yingjie and his wife can go to a larger area. The police immediately searched around the family area of the coal mine. There are three or four hundred households
here, all living in bungalows, almost no one installed surveillance cameras, the police searched for half a day and found no trace of vehicles.
Coal mine family area
. Some people in the family area
of
the coal mine speculated whether Guo Yingjie had lent the car to someone else?
During the door-to-door visit, some people reported that Guo Yingjie had been seen driving towards the city on the morning of August 5. The family area of
South Coal Mine is 15 kilometers away from Xilinhot City, and Guo Yingjie’s home is next to National Highway 303. Under normal circumstances, drivers from the South Coal Mine to and from the city will choose to take this road.
In the surveillance video of a highway toll station, investigators found the trace of the modern car.
Surveillance video records show that Guo Yingjie’s car appeared at the toll station around 9 A. M. on August 5, heading from South Coal Mine to Xilinhot City. At about 11 o’clock
that morning, the car passed the toll station again and returned to the South Coal Mine from the urban area. In the
video, the police clearly saw that Guo Yingjie himself was sitting in the cab during the car’s round trip.
This shows that Guo Yingjie did not lend his car to outsiders before he disappeared.
In addition, some people reported that at noon on August 5, they saw Guo Yingjie driving away a female colleague from the factory.
Could it be that there are some emotional problems between husband and wife?
According to Wang Xiulan’s brother, his sister and brother-in-law treat people kindly on weekdays, and their feelings are also very good, and they are also very filial to their parents. The
couple’s colleagues also said that Lao Guo was honest and had no fancy intestines.
Later, after investigation, it was confirmed that the female colleague Guo Yingjie picked up was his free ride. After
Guo Yingjie sent her to the street of the South Coal Mine, she drove home alone. After a round of
understanding, the police found that the couple were very popular in the unit and neighbors, and had no enmity with anyone. It
‘s not a kidnapping, and it basically rules out the possibility of a love killing or a vendetta. Could it be that the two living people really “disappeared” like this?
With the deepening of the investigation, the track of Guo Yingjie and his wife’s activities on the day of their disappearance gradually became clear:
a colleague from the two-person brick factory said that Wang Xiulan went to work in the early morning of August 5. When she got off work at noon, she rode an electric bicycle home. Guo Yingjie went to the city
that morning, and near noon, he returned to the brick factory from the city. After taking the female colleague who took a ride to the street, he drove home alone.
According to their neighbors, they had seen the couple in the courtyard at noon.
Combined with the situation reflected by the driver of the cart, the police locked the time of the couple’s “disappearance” between 12 noon and 3 pm on August 5.
Investigators investigate and visit
…
Since the investigators could not find any relevant information about the disappearance of Guo Yingjie and his wife, the police believed that they should first investigate the existing information on hand.
For example, what did Guo Yingjie do in the city on the morning of August 5? Also, he came back from the city not directly home, specially ran to the brick factory, is it just to let colleagues hitchhike?
Soon, the investigators got the answer.
Guo Yingjie went to the city that morning to collect a debt of 10,000 yuan; and he returned to the brick factory because someone asked him to buy a brick ticket worth 100,000 yuan and gave him 46,000 yuan in cash.
Therefore, on August 5, Guo Yingjie should have a total of 56,000 yuan in cash.
But the police searched every corner of Guo Yingjie’s house, but did not even see the shadow of a penny, and there was no record of his deposit in the bank.
Zhong Hongbo’s heart is a little anxious, according to the current situation, Guo Yingjie and his wife are holding this huge sum of money missing, most likely to be controlled, and may even have suffered an accident. Finding the whereabouts of the two people
as soon as possible is an extremely urgent matter at present. The Public Security Bureau
of Xilinhot City quickly set up a task force of more than 50 people and began to conduct a large-scale investigation.
3, six suspects
while the police were anxiously looking for clues, several of Guo Yingjie’s neighbors unanimously reported a situation to the police.
Neighbors said that at about 11 A. M. on August 5, three people dressed as migrant workers appeared in front of Guo Yingjie’s house.
According to their recollections, the three men, all in their thirties and forties, got off a bus from the city with a lot of things in their hands.
These people went to the nearest door of Guo Yingjie’s house and sat down, playing poker and looking at the road from time to time, as if they were waiting for someone. One
of the neighbors told investigators that he had lived here for more than 10 years and had never seen these people or noticed when they disappeared. After analysis, the
task force believes that these three people should have just come from other places to work here, and their series of actions indicate that they are probably waiting for someone to pick them up.
So someone asked, could it be that these migrant workers had waited here for a long time because they were short of money, and when they saw Guo Yingjie driving home, they had the idea of robbing cars and robbing money? It
has also been suggested that the reason why these three people appeared here may be that they knew in advance that Guo Yingjie was carrying a huge sum of money that day and waited for him to go home to kill him.
Zhong Hongbo believes that whether it is a temporary idea or a premeditated murder for money, the first thing is to find these three people!
Investigators took a lot of trouble and finally found out in a quarry near the South Coal Mine that three migrant workers had come here on the afternoon of August 5.
However, before the investigators could be happy, they were told that the three men had disappeared with their luggage on the second day of their arrival.
Because of the sudden incident, the three people’s telephone has not yet had time to register, in the face of the police visit, the person in charge of the unknown situation had to call the introducer Tan Ying to inquire about the situation.
Tan Ying said that he also knew the three people through others, only knowing that they came all the way from Sichuan to work here.
He also said that he was now in the field and had no knowledge of the sudden departure of the three men from the quarry.
Tan Ying was eager to get rid of his attitude, which attracted the attention of the investigators.
After some understanding, the police learned that Tan Ying was from Xilinhot City. He was in his 40s. He ran a computer consumables store in the city. He had no criminal record, but he had a bad temper at ordinary times.
With further investigation, investigators unexpectedly found that the person who returned Guo Yingjie’s money on the morning of August 5 was Tan Ying!
Subsequently, investigators learned from Guo Yingjie’s relatives that Tan Ying had borrowed the money for several years.
Under Guo Yingjie’s repeated urging, Tan Yingcai promised to pay back 6000 yuan first.
Helplessly, Guo Yingjie had no choice but to say that he was in a hurry to use the money and let Tan Ying borrow 4000 yuan to collect the money.
Could it be that Guo Yingjie forced Tan Ying to pay back the money too tightly, which made Tan Ying have a rebellious mentality, so he joined several migrant workers to kill Guo Yingjie and his wife, and then robbed them of their property, cars and cash, and fled to other places?
The task force felt that although this speculation seemed reasonable, it still needed sufficient evidence to support it.
They could only spy on Tan Ying while seizing the time to find out the whereabouts of the three migrant workers.
In fact, there has always been a question in Zhong Hongbo’s mind:
Judging from the scene at Guo Yingjie’s home, Guo Yingjie left in a hurry wearing slippers in the middle of the meal; although Wang Xiulan went out wearing shoes normally, it must be very urgent for the two people who are usually thrifty to forget to turn off the lights and TV.
So, what is it? Could someone have called them?
Therefore, the investigators took the telephone records of Guo Yingjie and his wife, and after careful screening, they made a major discovery!
Call records show that Guo Yingjie’s last call was more than 1 o’clock at noon on the day of his disappearance, and the calling number was a strange number that had never been contacted before.
Guo Yingjie’s phone records
.. The discovery
of Kuo Ying-chieh’s telephone records
made the investigators’ eyes shine. After investigation, it was found that this number was a new “temporary number.”.
At that time, this kind of temporary number, which was not registered in the telecommunications departments such as China Mobile and China Unicom, could be easily bought by anyone.
Investigators found that the “temporary number” was shut down after only three calls, which was very abnormal.
Soon, two other people who talked to the number were found one after another. They were Zhang Mou and Chen Mou, who were doing coal mining business in the local area.
According to Zhang, he usually prefers to collect antiques. On August 5, he received a call from this strange number. On the
phone, a man with a local accent told him that he had a good antique in his hand and wanted to ask him to meet alone in a hotel to negotiate the price.
In the course of their conversation, Zhang felt that the other party was deliberately pinching his voice with his hands, as if he was afraid to hear who he was.
With his years of experience in society, Zhang Mou felt that something was wrong, he was worried that it was a trap or danger, so he rejected the other party’s request.
According to Chen’s recollection, it was also a man who called him, saying that he wanted to discuss the coal business with him, and also asked him to go to a hotel alone.
Cautious Chen Mou was also afraid of any problems, so he found a reason not to go.
According to Zhang Mou and Chen Mou’s account, the task force judged that the owner of the telephone card should be very familiar with the situation of the South Coal Mine. Could he be from the South Coal Mine?
As a result, investigators began to investigate all the people with criminal records in the South Coal Mine, but found nothing. Just then
, someone thought of Tan Ying, who was far away from home. Although he was not from the South Coal Mine, he was also a native of Xilinhot.
South Coal Mine is not far from the urban area, since Tan Ying is suspected of robbing Guo Yingjie and his wife, will he be the one who calls Zhang and Chen?
Through the investigation and visits to the people around Tan Ying, the investigators found that he was unlikely to know Zhang Mou and Chen Mou, and Zhang Mou and Chen Mou also made it clear that they did not know Tan Ying. The detection of the
case seems to have entered a dead end, and people’s hearts seem to be pressed on a huge stone.
Suddenly, Zhong Hongbo remembered that before Guo Yingjie and his wife disappeared, in addition to the 10000 yuan arrears returned by Tan Ying, there was also a sum of 46000 yuan for selling bricks.
So, know this money, besides Guo Yingjie, there should be someone who trades with him!
In the previous visit, investigators confirmed from Guo Yingjie’s colleagues that two men came to Guo Yingjie to buy bricks on the day of the incident. The payer was Wang Tianyi, and the introducer was Lin Qiang.
Wang Tianyi and Lin Qiang are both from Xilinhot City. They are both in their thirties and forties. They don’t have any formal jobs on weekdays.
Wang Tianyi’s main source of income is to earn some price difference by reselling construction raw materials to various construction sites in the urban area.
Lin Qiang said that he was the introducer, but in fact he was Wang Tianyi’s little sidekick.
In the investigation of the two people, the police found that they actually knew Zhang Mou and Chen Mou who received strange phone calls!
So, will the owner of the mysterious phone card be Wang Tianyi or Lin Qiang? The task force decided to conduct a more in-depth secret investigation into the two men.
Wang Tianyi had a very old second-hand car. By checking the surveillance on the highway, investigators found that the car had frequently traveled between the city and the brick factory in the two or three days before and after the incident.
And every time the driver is Wang Tianyi, sitting next to Lin Qiang.
Investigators also found that Wang Tianyi and Lin Qiang disappeared after buying bricks at noon on the day of the incident, and did not drive back to the city until the evening, and their behavior was very suspicious.
In addition, according to the people around them, Lin Qiang’s performance after the incident was also very abnormal. Instead of being poor,
he became very generous, not only paying off several debts he owed before, but also inviting friends to restaurants for dinner and drinks many times.
Especially on one occasion, Lin Qiang drank too much and threw money in a restaurant in public, which eventually led to the police.
Investigators came to the police station that day, the police recalled that they took the money back to count, found a full 15 thousand yuan.
The next day, after sobering up, Lin Qiang went to the police station to get the money. When the police asked him about the source of the money, he said that Wang Tianyi lent it to him.
The police immediately called Wang Tianyi for confirmation. At first, Wang Tianyi hesitated and prevaricated on the other end of the phone. Later, he reluctantly admitted that he had lent Lin Qiang 10,000 yuan.
Wang and Lin’s disagreement about the amount of the loan aroused the vigilance of the police, but because there was no evidence to prove that there was anything wrong with it, the police had to return the money to Lin Qiang first. The information provided by the
police made the investigators more suspicious of Wang Tianyi and Lin Qiang.
It seemed reasonable to say that they had the motive and time to commit the crime, so the police decided to take them to the Bureau for separate questioning.
Investigators found that the two men had shown unusual nervousness since they entered the Public Security Bureau.
In the course of questioning, the two men not only totally denied the fact that they had been to the South Coal Mine on August 5, but also refused to admit that they had bought bricks from Guo Yingjie and paid for them that day.
As for where they went that afternoon, they first said they were drinking in a restaurant, and then they said they were drinking in Wang Tian’s house.
Through Wang Lin’s denial of the facts and the inconsistency of their confessions, the police judged that there must be some unknown secrets in it.
Suffering from the lack of direct evidence, the task force decided to temporarily release the two men and spy on their movements.
But to everyone’s surprise, Wang Tianyi drove outside the Public Security Bureau at 11 o’clock that evening and circled around the office building before leaving.
In the next two or three days, Wang Tianyi would drive around the Public Security Bureau every day.
Whenever he saw the lights on in the office of the vice squad, he would slow down, as if he were secretly observing something.
Wang Tianyi’s abnormal behavior further deepened the suspicion of the two men.
Is Wang Tianyi guilty of being a thief? He wanted to find out the progress of the case so that he could decide whether to run or stay?
Therefore, the task force decided to implement 24-hour monitoring of Wang Lin and Wang Lin. Ten days have passed
since Guo Yingjie and his wife lost their news, but the detection work has stagnated again and again, which makes every member of the task force feel extremely tired and depressed.
Just when everyone was at a loss, a big news came that Guo Yingjie and his wife’s car had been found!
4. Who will be the real murderer?
In Baochang Town, more than 260 kilometers from Xilinhot City, police saw the black Hyundai sedan, which was very similar to the missing vehicle.
Guo Yingjie’s Hyundai car
… The license plate of
Guo Yingjie’s Hyundai
sedan has disappeared, and the body is covered with a thin layer of dust, as if it had been parked here for some time.
By checking the frame number, the police confirmed that the black Hyundai was Guo Yingjie’s!
Investigators immediately carried out a detailed survey of the vehicle, the interior of the car is relatively clean, there is no big turn, there is no blood and other things.
Apart from a few fresh cigarette butts on the floor mats in the front row, the police did not get any other clues.
According to what the police learned from the relatives of Guo Yingjie and his wife, the couple do not smoke and generally do not allow others to smoke in their cars.
Therefore, the police judged that the cigarette butts should be left by the perpetrators. Cigarette butts
found in the
car.. The cigarette butts
found in the
car were tested and smoked by a man. The police immediately collected blood samples from Wang Tianyi and Lin Qiang and compared them with the suspicious DNA on the cigarette butts.
The task force is full of confidence, and now all kinds of signs have pointed the suspect to Wang and Lin, just wait for the DNA comparison results to come out, it can be set in stone!
However, the result of the comparison was disappointing. The cigarette butts were not left by Wang and Lin, and the police had to rule them out for the time being.
Zhong Hongbo is very depressed. Every time he finds a new clue, he feels that he is very close to the truth. However, when he investigates all the way, he finds that in the end he is “looking at the mountain and running a dead horse.”.
In fact, every member of the task force has a deep understanding of this feeling, and people begin to reorganize their thinking.
After many discussions and studies, people believed that the criminal could choose to drive Guo Yingjie’s car to the remote town of Baochang to abandon it, which showed that he knew not only Xilinhot City, but also the whole Xilingol League very well.
Therefore, the police put the suspicious DNA directly into the comparison system of the whole Xilin Gol League.
Finally, the good news! In Guo Yingjie’s South Coal Mine Brick Factory, the DNA of a middle-aged man named Lei Zhanqing matched the suspicious DNA! The members of the task force who
got the comparison results were very excited, but after the excitement, they realized that this evidence alone was not enough to convict Lei Zhanqing.
Therefore, the police began to conduct a comprehensive investigation of Lei Zhanqing.
In the preliminary investigation, investigators found that the relationship between Lei Zhanqing’s family and Guo Yingjie and his wife was very good.
The two families will get together to eat and chat every three or five times, and they will help each other if there are any big or small things.
In particular, Lei Zhanqing’s daughter-in-law and Wang Xiulan are like sisters. They often go to and from work together, and they are intimate with each other.
According to people around, after the disappearance of Guo Yingjie and his wife, Lei Zhanqing has been asking around and actively searching for their whereabouts, as anxious as if they were missing their own relatives.
From this point of view, it is nothing to say that the cigarette butts that Lei Zhanqing smoked will appear in Guo Yingjie’s car.
However, with the deepening of the investigation, investigators found that Lei Zhanqing had several criminal records, and his reputation in the mining area was not very good. The reason why we can compare him this time is that he had a criminal record before.
But since the relationship between the two families is so good, will Lei Zhanqing really kill his closest friend?
After several days of secret investigation, investigators did not find any unusual behavior of Lei Zhanqing.
So someone asked, could the cigarette butt be left by Lei Zhanqing when he was in the car before?
At this time, the investigators who went out to visit brought back an important piece of information-Lei Zhanqing rented an old house in the family area of the South Coal Mine the day before the incident, saying that he was going to give it to a friend who came to work.
This old house is located in a remote area, no one lives around it, not far from Guo Yingjie’s home.
The police immediately found the owner and, with his cooperation, quietly went into the old house to investigate.
Walking into the courtyard, people saw weeds growing in the courtyard, and there was dust everywhere in the house because no one had lived there for a long time.
On the floor of the back room, investigators found a pair of gray men’s slippers.
After checking, the size of this pair of slippers is the same as that of the men’s leather shoes left by Guo Yingjie’s family, which is 42 yards. The slippers
found in the old house rented by
Lei Zhanqing … Could the slippers
found in the old house rented by
Lei Zhanqing be the slippers worn by Guo Yingjie when he disappeared?
Next, investigators found several long hairs on the ground. After communicating with Wang Xiulan’s brother, the police learned that the length of Wang Xiulan’s hair was very close to these hairs. The hair
found in the old house rented by
Lei Zhanqing … Hair
was found in the old house rented by
Lei Zhanqing, and then investigators found several fresh cigarette butts in the corner of the house, which were the same brand as those found in Guo Yingjie’s car, and the freshness was similar.
The police quickly extracted and tested several pieces of evidence separately, and the results showed that Guo Yingjie’s DNA was detected on the slippers, while the DNA on the long hair belonged to Wang Xiulan.
This shows that Guo Yingjie and his wife had appeared in this room before they disappeared!
The case finally made progress, and everyone in the task force was very excited.
If the DNA on these cigarette butts in the old house can also match Lei Zhanqing’s, then the police can be sure that he is related to the case.
But the result of the comparison was once again a blow to everyone.
After testing, the DNA of cigarette butts left in the old house and Guo Yingjie’s car did not belong to the same person. That is to say, the cigarette butts in the old house were not left by Lei Zhanqing! What the hell is going on here
? Does Lei Zhanqing really have nothing to do with this? But why did Guo Yingjie’s slippers and Wang Xiulan’s hair appear in Lei Zhanqing’s rented house?
A series of questions linger in the minds of each member of the task force, after discussion, they finally think that the only possibility is that Lei Zhanqing is working with others to do the case.
After determining the direction, the police quickly conducted a key investigation of the people who had contacted Lei Zhanqing before and after the incident, while continuing to spy on Lei Zhanqing.
Soon, investigators found that Lei Zhanqing occasionally went to the city to meet a middle-aged man named Zhao Lizhi quietly.
Zhao Lizhi, a native of Duolun County, Inner Mongolia, and Lei Zhanqing were cellmates many years ago.
Every time they met, they only whispered a few words to each other, then left immediately, and never had a meal together.
Their suspicious behavior aroused the suspicion of the task force. After tracking for a period of time, investigators found that Zhao Lizhi usually rented a small hotel in Xilinhot. Usually
he stayed in the hotel, only came out to buy something at dinner time, and then hurried back to the hotel.
And Zhao Lizhi often changed his place of residence, as if he was avoiding something.
Soon, the DNA comparison results came out, and the DNA on the cigarette butts in the old house belonged to Zhao Lizhi!
The police immediately arrested the two men, and after interrogation, they confessed that it was they who killed Guo Yingjie and Wang Xiulan.
So why did Lei Zhanqing do this?
According to him, Zhao Lizhi was released from prison four or five months ago because he could not find a job for a while and was very short of money. In order to get the money as soon as possible, the two men began to plan robbery and murder.
According to Lei Zhanqing, on August 5, he used a temporary mobile phone number to call Zhang Mou and Chen Mou, who were doing business, but they were not deceived. At 11 noon
that day, he saw Guo Yingjie when he passed the South Coal Mine.
Because two people usually have nothing to say, so he knows that Guo Yingjie’s family’s financial situation is good, he also once borrowed a sum of money from Guo Yingjie, has not returned.
Suddenly, an evil thought occupied his mind, so there was a scene at the beginning of the article that he and Zhao Lizhi jointly brutally killed Guo Yingjie and his wife.
Afterwards, the two men used a car to pull the bodies of Guo Yingjie and his wife to the wilderness and buried them, and divided 56,000 yuan of cash on the spot. By the time they were caught, the stolen money had been squandered by them.
Lei Zhanqing identified the place
where the body was dumped.
Lei Zhanqing identified the place
where the body was dumped on April 13, 2015. After review by the Supreme People’s Court, the Intermediate People’s Court of Xilingol League of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region sentenced Lei Zhanqing and Zhao Lizhi to death for robbery and homicide.
As for the three suspicious migrant workers in Sichuan, the police found them in another brick factory shortly after the case was solved.
Speaking of the reasons for the sudden disappearance from the quarry, three people said that when they arrived there, they found that the working conditions and treatment were unsatisfactory, so they left quietly.
In addition, Wang Tianyi and Lin Qiang, who behaved abnormally in the Public Security Bureau, also admitted to the task force afterwards that their money was won by participating in gambling. The
reason why they lied when questioned and peeped at the police for several days after leaving the Public Security Bureau was that they heard that Guo Yingjie and his wife had just finished their business with them and were afraid that they would be involved in the case.
Seeing this, many people may feel sorry for Guo Yingjie and his wife.
This case has also triggered a few thoughts from the “Human Observer Mission.” I am here with you, and I hope it will be helpful to you!
First of all, when making friends, we should choose carefully. More than 3,000 years ago,
Confucius put forward the concepts of “three friends for those who benefit” and “three friends for those who lose.”.
The so-called “three friends of the beneficial,” that is, straight friends, understanding friends, and knowledgeable friends, that is to say, friends should be honest, tolerant, and knowledgeable friends.
On the other hand, the “three friends of the losers” refer to those who are friendly, gentle, and insolent. It means that one should not associate with people who are fond of evil ways, who sway from side to side, and who flatter others. In
this case, Guo Yingjie and his wife, knowing that Lei Zhanqing had many criminal records, also had frequent contacts with him, which was tantamount to putting themselves in danger.
Secondly, in the process of communicating with others, we should keep rational and sober.
As the saying goes, “You can’t have the intention to harm others, and you can’t have the intention to prevent others.” This does not mean that you should keep people away, but you should not casually disclose too much about personal privacy. In
this case, when Guo Yingjie and his wife were in contact with Lei Zhanqing and his wife, they had nothing to say because they felt that they were too familiar with each other.
They inadvertently revealed too much personal information, especially their own financial situation. And thus brought about his own death.
Finally, we must be vigilant when we encounter a situation that seems abnormal. In
this case, Lei Zhanqing, who had always owed money, suddenly called to say that he wanted to pay back the money and used a strange number, but Guo Yingjie had no doubt about it.
On the contrary, Zhang Mou and Chen Mou, who also received unfamiliar phone calls, escaped the disaster because of their strong vigilance.
Also, when Guo Yingjie arrived at the appointed place and saw strangers, he easily believed each other’s words.
Even though the other party took him to such a remote place, he was not alert and lost his life.
We often use the phrase “no coincidence, no book” to describe the coincidence of the matter. In this case, “coincidences” kept jumping out and disturbing the sight of the police.
Thanks to the unremitting perseverance of the police, the truth was finally revealed to the world, so that the victims could finally close their eyes!
