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

Chapter 281: His popularity is really average, he kills people standing at the door

The body has been taken away by the forensic doctor for autopsy, and Ye Lin cannot see it for the time being.

He turned around and asked, "Captain Li, have the neighbors learned about the situation? Who discovered it?"

Director Li walked out with Ye Lin, pointed at the door opposite, and said, "It was discovered by the couple next door. The smell is so strong that it would be hard not to notice it."

Opposite was a couple in their early thirties. Their child had already been sent to school, and they were sitting at home with gloomy faces.

"Hello, I'm Ye Lin from the Administrative Brigade of Xishan Branch. Can we chat for a few minutes?" Ye Lin came forward.

"I don't care where you are from. You've asked us several times. We just smelled something and called the police. We've told you everything we know." Before the male host said anything, the female host had already started complaining.

The male host was a little embarrassed and quickly tried to smooth things over: "Comrade police officer, my name is Yu Xuejun and my wife is Fan Juanhua. My wife is also tired of being asked questions. We actually don't know anything, we just called the police."

"It's good that you can call the police. Without your eyes, we would only have a few police officers, right?" Ye Lin said with a smile, taking out a bag of golden lotus and handing it to the male host.

Yu Xuejun hesitated for a moment and glanced at his wife. His wife obviously recognized the Golden Lotus and knew that anyone who could smoke this kind of cigarette must not be an ordinary person, so she tactfully turned her head away and pretended not to see it.

Yu Xuejun lit it skillfully, and Ye Lin also gave one to Li Suo. Everyone seemed to become more familiar with each other all of a sudden. So sometimes cigarettes are harmful to health, but they are still very useful in socializing.

"Sister-in-law, I see that this woman's house is very messy and she doesn't care much about hygiene." Ye Lin said to Fan Juanhua and started chatting about family matters.

When it comes to this, Fan Juanhua snorted coldly, her face full of anger, "Comrade police, when it comes to this, I have to say something, ah. A little girl, I have never seen a girl so dirty, the garbage at home is stinking, I don't know how she can stand it."

"Indeed, I smelled it when I went in just now." Ye Lin agreed, and then asked, "Didn't you tell her about it before?"

"Say, more than say, I've quarreled with her several times. She was very fierce and didn't listen to reason at all." Fan Juanhua said angrily.

"Yes, police comrade, we called the police and the comrades from the police station came to mediate. But my wife didn't quarrel with her later. Her murder has nothing to do with us." Yu Xuejun explained a few words. The man was more rational and guessed that the police were actually trying to find out whether they had the possibility of murder.

Fan Juanhua also reacted at this time, her face turned pale, and she said with a hint of complaint: "You are not being authentic. We are cooperating with you like this."

"It's all normal to understand the situation. I'm not suspecting you. As for the deceased, do you know who she had an argument with?"

Since the deceased could quarrel with his neighbors so badly that the police had to be called, he must not be a good person and must have offended many people.

"Yes, of course, wife. Doesn't she often quarrel with the deliverymen and couriers? She also quarrels with the cleaning lady." Yu Xuejun reminded his wife that the policeman was about to suspect them, so they quickly disclosed the information to clear themselves of suspicion.

"Yes, yes, comrade police officer, she doesn't just quarrel with us, she often quarrels with others."

"Especially those who deliver takeout and express packages, they often quarrel with her, and we can hear it clearly."

"She likes to order takeout and shop online, so there are delivery guys coming to her every day. She always finds fault with them, saying that they are late, the soup is spilled, or she didn't answer the phone. It seems that she gave them several bad reviews and complaints. Those delivery guys came to her house to argue with her."

"Yes, there were a few delivery men arguing and saying that women like her would not have a good death and they wanted to kill her." Yu Xuejun interrupted.

Ye Lin's eyes narrowed. The relationship between the deceased seemed a bit complicated.

"Do you remember who said he wanted to kill her?" Ye Lin asked. Oftentimes, a murder case was caused by such a small thing, which might be only 5 dollars, but people just couldn't get over it.

"This..." Yu Xuejun scratched his head and turned to look at his wife, "Do you remember it?"

Fan Juanhua shook her head and said, "How can I remember? She always quarrels with me several times a week. The cleaning ladies also quarreled with me because they suspected that there was too much garbage at her door."

"Anyway, police comrade, she really wasn't very popular, and her murder has nothing to do with us."

Ye Lin didn't say anything either. From the current perspective, these two people should not be a big problem. The next thing to investigate is the takeaway, courier and cleaning lady they mentioned. Ye Lin sent Sun Jinghua and Qi Shan out. The key point was whether the deceased had any grudges with anyone.

After a busy day, it was already afternoon when Ye Lin returned to the bureau. He gathered everyone together and held a case analysis meeting. As for getting off work on time, that had nothing to do with criminal police.

When I say everyone, it’s actually just Sun Jinghua and Qi Shan. The others are still in the hospital and they will probably need another half a month.

When everyone was present, Ye Lin cleared his throat and said, "Everyone went to the homicide case in Lanyuan District 3 this morning. Let's hold a case analysis meeting to summarize the situation."

"Let me first talk about the reports from the forensic and technical departments." Ye Lin pointed to the big screen.

"The deceased, Zhang Liqin, was 23 years old, from another place, and worked as a white-collar worker in a company in Yuezhou. The cause of death was a slash to the throat. Judging from the wound, it should have been a frontal attack."

The deceased's photo was projected on the screen, with a very obvious wound on the neck, which was turned outward, revealing the pale flesh.

"The time of death was on June 6, around 12 p.m., and it must have been raining heavily at the time."

"Colleagues from the technical department collected physical evidence from the deceased's room and door handles, but found no traces of the murderer. As for the stairs, which are the only way to go up and down, no footprints could be collected from them."

Ye Lin paused and played a photo of the deceased's door on the projector. "Everyone, take a look. This is where the deceased died. I stood there and tried it. The deceased was killed when he opened the door. There are no signs of outsiders in the room."

"So, we can roughly infer that the murderer stood at the door, tricked the victim into opening the door, and then killed him with a single knife."

"According to our understanding of the deceased's neighbors, the deceased himself was not very popular and had disputes with many people, mainly takeaways, couriers, and cleaning staff. I also asked Xiao Sun and Qi Shan to investigate. Tell me about the results of the investigation."
