Back to the world, you human trafficker are dead

An Yuchun called everyone together and held a simple meeting.

Everyone expressed their opinions and summarized the characteristics of the murderer in this case.

A small number of footprints indicated that the perpetrator was an acquaintance. After entering the yard, he went straight to Li Tao's window sill.

The murderer first attacked Li Tao, and then went all out and killed Li Gen and the old Li couple.

The murderer's footprints were covered in mud, clearly showing the order of the killings.

This is a size 42 shoe print, a man's shoe print.

Judging from the wounds on Li Tao's family, Li Tao was the target and had the most knife wounds on his body, as if he was venting his anger.

Li Gen and his parents all died from excessive blood loss after being stabbed once or twice in the internal organs.

"I found this." Zhang Hui showed the mini silver lock in his hand.

An Yuchun glared fiercely to his left, and the two subordinates who were responsible for collecting information from Li Tao's room lowered their heads with uneasiness.

Taking the silver lock in the transparent bag from Zhang Hui, An Yuchun examined it carefully.

This silver lock is very small, about three centimeters long, two centimeters wide and about two and a half centimeters thick.

The front is engraved with "Long Life", and the back is engraved with "Wealth and Honor". Although the characters are small, the engraving is extraordinary and can be seen clearly.

An Yuchun pondered and said, whether the silver lock belongs to the murderer or Li Gen, just ask Li’s relatives and you will know.

After questioning, Li's relatives all said that Li Gen and Li Tao, the brother and sister, had never worn silver locks.

When Li Tao was young, her family was very poor. They didn't even have a silver bracelet, let alone a silver lock.

As for Li Gen, when he was one month old, his mother bought him a silver bracelet. He wore it until he was three years old, but then it became too small and she took it off.

Zhang Hui said, "Captain An, can you let Mantou sniff it? His sense of smell may help."

An Yuchun's eyes lit up: "You brought the steamed buns? Where are they?"

Except for Xiao Qingze, the rest of the people didn't know what a steamed bun was? Hearing the word "smell", they guessed it might be a dog.

Everyone followed An Yuchun out of the yard. Zhang Hui waited for Xiao Qingze to open the car door and took Mantou down.

Wow, everyone's legs went weak and they almost turned around and ran away.

Is this Mantou? This is clearly a wolf! A giant wolf at that!

The onlookers were also frightened and whispered to each other.

"Oh, Mantou has grown a lot taller." An Yuchun was not afraid at all. After all, he had seen Mantou's high IQ.

"You stay at home all day, either eating or sleeping, how can you not grow taller?" Zhang Hui smiled as he touched Mantou's broad back.

Mantou called back to Zhang twice to show his protest.

An Yuchun knew what it meant without Zhang Hui's translation, and tried to say, "Mantou, if you feel bored at home, come to the detachment to help!"

Zhang Hui rolled his eyes at him. He was really impressed by the fact that this guy was poaching people but ended up poaching dogs.

An Yuchun opened the bag, without taking it out with his hands, and put the silver lock under the dog's nose.

Mantou's nose twitched, and after sniffing for two minutes, he barked at Zhang Hui.

Zhang Hui understood and remembered it, so he untied the dog chain.

The village chief asked anxiously, "Captain An, this won't hurt anyone, right?"

An Yuchun quickly assured: "Don't worry, it's a police dog and it won't hurt anyone."

The village chief was relieved, but he didn't dare to go far away. The other villagers grumbled and watched from a distance, but didn't dare to move.

Mantou sniffed the smell and ran towards the village, and Zhang Hui and others hurriedly followed.

When the villagers saw that the dog was indeed leading the way to find clues, they were no longer afraid and followed with great interest.

After running less than 500 meters, Mantou stopped outside a yard.

Zhang Hui asked, "Is this the one?" Mantou nodded.

An Yuchun and the other village chiefs ran over breathlessly and asked, "Whose house is this?"

The village chief wiped his sweat and panted, "This is the home of Widow Liu. Her husband went out to work ten years ago, but he didn't make any money and got sick and died."

"Leaving behind an only child, who is in his twenties, unemployed, and idle all day long."

Xiao Qingze went forward and knocked on the door. It was a little strange that in broad daylight, the door of Widow Liu's house was closed.

You should know that in rural areas, every household will not close the door in broad daylight.

Villagers come and go frequently, visiting each other and chatting, and this has been going on for more than ten years or even decades.

No matter which family cooks a delicious meal at noon, the villagers will know about it in the time it takes to smoke a cigarette.

Mantou led the way to Widow Liu's house, and it was obvious that this family was the most suspicious.

"Who is it?" an old female voice sounded.

The village chief raised his voice and said, "Sister-in-law, it's me." After a while, the sound of footsteps came closer and closer.

The door opened, and an old woman with gray hair and an old face stood at the door, looking at the crowd of people outside at a loss.

There were dozens of pairs of eyes, some familiar and some unfamiliar, staring at her.

Widow Liu asked tremblingly, "Village Chief, what are you doing?"

The village chief was about to speak when An Yuchun interrupted her and said, "Hello, ma'am, we are from the municipal bureau detachment."

He stretched out his hand, and the small silver lock lay quietly in his palm. "Auntie, this is the physical evidence found at the scene."

"This is our police dog. It found your home based on the scent of the silver lock."

Widow Liu's eyes fell on the silver lock in his hand, and she quickly looked away as if it were burned by fire.

An Yuchun proposed to lead a team into the yard to search it.

When Widow Liu heard the word "search", she shuddered and refused repeatedly, "No, you can't go in."

An Yuchun gave in and said, "It's okay if you don't go in. Auntie, please let your son come out and ask him a few questions."

The old lady said coldly, "He's not at home." Seeing that she didn't agree with this or that, the village chief asked, "When did Liu Jun go out?"

"I saw him yesterday afternoon. Where did he go?"

Widow Liu's eyes flickered as she said vaguely, "The child went out early in the morning, saying he was going to play with a friend. I don't know which friend he went to play with."

"Whose silver lock is this? Has anyone seen it?" An Yuchun raised the silver lock in his hand and turned it towards the crowd.

Everyone stared with wide eyes, and some people who had a good relationship with Liu Jun recognized him.

One of the fools blurted out: "Isn't this Liu Jun's?"

At this point, everyone had an idea in their minds that Liu Jun was most likely the murderer.

"Hey, I remember that when I came back from the field yesterday, I saw Liu Jun following Taozi stealthily."

A villager suddenly shouted, and the other villagers couldn't help but recall the past.

"Oh, I also remembered something." Another villager said, scratching his head.

"Didn't Matchmaker Sun come to Old Li's house last month? Later, I saw Liu Jun blocking her and saying a lot of things to prevent her from leaving."

"Who is Matchmaker Sun?" Xiao Qingze asked. The villagers looked around and someone asked, "Has Matchmaker Sun arrived?"

"Here she comes!" The crowd parted and a woman in her fifties trotted over, panting.

It turned out that there was a clever little kid who ran quickly to call Sun the matchmaker.

Who doesn’t like to watch a case being solved on the spot?

"Then Liu Jun asked me if Taozi was going to get engaged. I said yes, and he got so angry that his face turned red."

Xiao Qingze didn't need to ask, because Matchmaker Sun had already learned a thing or two on the way here, and she started talking as soon as she stood still.

"Later, he asked me to go to Lao Li's house to propose marriage. Both families were about to arrange the marriage, and it was not a big deal for him to interfere. So I didn't agree."

These words made Liu Jun's motive for committing the crime clear. It was most likely that he saw the girl he liked was engaged to someone else and became jealous.

Whether he came to Taozi's house at night to question her or to do something bad, the end result was this tragedy.

The case is now clear and the evidence is conclusive, but where is Liu Jun?

The village chief sighed, fearing that a city-wide manhunt would be launched. It was such a disgrace to have such a person in the village.

There was a hint of panic and relief in Widow Liu's eyes. It was thanks to her quick decision that she let her son run away, otherwise he would have been taken away by now.

"Auntie, where is Liu Jun?" An Yuchun asked again.

"Who said it was my son who did it? Maybe it was Li Tao himself who hooked up with some shady guy and brought about this disaster."

Widow Liu refused to admit it and instead threw a basin of dirty water on Li Tao.

The villagers looked at her with disdain. "Everyone in the village knows that Li Tao is an honest and self-disciplined child. How could this be Li Tao's fault?"

On the contrary, Liu Jun, who had not even graduated from junior high school, just wandered around the village, doing nothing and playing with cats and dogs.

Widow Liu didn't care, and when he grew up, he did even more bad things.

The situation seemed to be at a stalemate. No matter what, if Liu Jun was not caught soon, the case would probably become an unsolved case.

Zhang Hui stepped out slowly and said to Widow Liu with a cold face, "Auntie, please come with us."
