As a local policeman, is it appropriate for you to take over the job of a criminal policeman?

"Also, there's the forensic doctor. The time of death was around 9 p.m., which was when the two witnesses saw him. The fatal injury was caused by being hit with a brick. However, the forensic doctor extracted some human tissue from between the deceased's fingernails that didn't belong to him. After testing, it was confirmed to be female. We've done a DNA comparison, and there's no matching criteria."

"So, at this point, the murderer in this case is most likely a woman."

Ye Lin stopped.

"We checked the surveillance footage and didn't capture this person. There aren't many surveillance cameras in the old city," said Zhao Jianfeng.

"Comrades from the police station went to Liu Jinming's factory and learned in detail about Liu Jinming's situation in the past few days. According to his fellow villagers, Liu Jinming once said that he had made a fortune in the past two days. Someone invited him to go fishing to fulfill a vow, and he got 2000 yuan. The place for fishing was Song River next to Liu Village." Wang Longxin added.

There were too many clues, and they were a bit confusing. Yu Haifeng was a bit overwhelmed. He looked at Ye Lin and said, "Linzi, do you think this case can be investigated together with the previous two cases?"

Ye Lin ate another steamed dumpling in two or three bites, then stood in front of the blackboard, rubbed his hands, and picked up a pen.

"On the surface, the murderer in Liu Jinming's case is a woman."

"In Xiang Sisi's case, the murderer should be someone with relatively strong body, and the gender is unknown."

"At the scene where Fang Rongjie was killed, we only found footprints of size 42. It is very likely that the murderer was a man, and of course it is also possible that he was wearing men's shoes."

"So, purely from the murderer's perspective, there may be more than one murderer."

Ye Lin paused for a moment, turned around and wrote a few names on the blackboard: Lin Xianhao, Fang Rongjie, and Liu Jinming.

"Let's first look at the relationship between these three people."

"Lin Xianhao appeared at the scene of Fang Rongjie's death. He was originally a strong suspect, but because of Liu Jinming's testimony, he was cleared of suspicion."

"The key point is the confession of his fellow villager. He did not go there to fish by chance. Someone asked him to go there. So I guess the purpose of the person who asked him to go fishing was to let him see Lin Xianhao and Fang Rongjie, so as to clear Lin Xianhao of suspicion."

...

"You mean Lin Xianhao paid him to go?" Yu Haifeng asked.

"It's hard to say, but one thing is certain: in the original plan, Liu Jinming's mission was to prove that Lin Xianhao was innocent."

"If that's the case, then what was the motive for killing Liu Jinming? Was it because he testified for Lin Xianhao?"

"I guess not." Ye Lin shook his head.

He dug out the pile of newspapers from a pile of evidence and folded them up. "Look, everyone, what does this look like?"

"From the outside, it looks like stacked money," said Qi Shan.

"Yes, so according to my inference, Liu Jinming went there to get the money."

"He got 2000 yuan so easily, and then after Xiao Sun and I went to find him, he might have realized it, especially after we mentioned that someone had died. He felt that he might have been taken advantage of, so he took the opportunity to raise the price to the person who invited him to go fishing."

"Greed is insatiable, and the murderer naturally would not satisfy him, so he made a fake money and killed him when he went to get the money."

After Ye Lin finished speaking, the conference room fell silent, and everyone began to think about the possibility that Ye Lin mentioned.

"Is the murderer helping Lin Xianhao, or are they in the same group?" Yu Haifeng asked.

"It is very likely, and this is the only way to explain why the murderer happened to appear there in the few minutes when Lin Xianhao left the river, and then killed Fang Rongjie without being discovered by Liu Jinming on the opposite side." Ye Lin guessed.

"Does that mean the person who killed Fang Rongjie and Liu Jinming is the same person?"

"Yes, and it was the same woman. I guess she knew that Lin Xianhao had an appointment with Fang Rongjie, and then she planned to take the opportunity to kill Fang Rongjie to vent Lin Xianhao's anger, but she didn't want to hurt Lin Xianhao, so she asked Liu Jinming to go fishing and testify. But Liu Jinming found out later. He should have guessed that this woman was the murderer, so he took the opportunity to blackmail Fang Rongjie, and then was killed."

Yu Haifeng thought thoughtfully, "This woman is helping Lin Xianhao so much, she must be someone who has a good relationship with him, or someone who likes him."

"Even, Xiang Sisi might have been killed by her. Since she has such a good relationship with Lin Xianhao, she might have the password to his new house." Sun Jinghua interrupted.

"I didn't realize that so many people like Master Lin, and some even kill for him." Wang Longxin said sourly.

"He's rich and handsome, of course there are girls who like him. Do you think he's the same as you, still a single guy?" Lao Zhao joked.

"I don't have money, but I am a pure love warrior. I will treat anyone who follows me well." Wang Longxin looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

Pure love warrior?

Why does this word sound so familiar? A picture suddenly appeared in Ye Lin's mind:

"Brother-in-law, I told you a long time ago that my sister was fooling around outside."

This is what Xiang Zhenzhen said to Lin Xianhao in the parking lot.

At that time, Lin Xianhao was very nervous.

Why is that?

Ye Lin’s brain felt like it was about to explode. Among the pile of clues, there seemed to be a little light appearing, but he couldn’t grasp it.

"What a joke on you about pure love. No woman wants you. Look at Mr. Lin. His sister died, and his younger sister came to pick him up. That's what you call being popular with women." Old Zhao said bluntly.

At that time, Lin Xianhao was released on bail and Xiang Zhenzhen came to pick him up. They all saw it and the single guys were so envious.

"Wait." Shanshan suddenly interrupted a few men's boring conversations, "Do you think Xiang Zhenzhen did it?"

The men looked at each other with an expression of disbelief on their faces. "That's not possible, my dear sister."

"What's wrong with being her own sister? Some women will do anything for a man. She will definitely be able to enter the new house and have the conditions to kill her own sister." Sister Shanshan made a bold guess.

Wang Longxin showed an admiring expression and gave Qi Shan a thumbs up, "Sister, I was wrong about you before. You are really strong. Next time, I will definitely not compete with you for a man."

"Captain Yu, I was talking about serious business and he started talking nonsense again." Qi Shan was so angry after being interrupted by Wang Longxin that she complained to Yu Haifeng.

"Don't interrupt, let's get down to business. What Qi Shan said is not impossible." Yu Haifeng said with a frown.

This case is becoming more and more bizarre. I didn’t sleep well last night. My mind is numb and I really can’t think straight.

He turned his head to look at Ye Lin. The person who originally talked the most now lowered his head and remained silent, as if he was thinking about something.
