Chapter 556

Li Tian, who had already walked to another room, came back to the master bedroom and said to Chen Fan: "Old Song just called. You said he found that man's card-swipe record. On the day he was on his business trip, he bought a freezer — the kind that's delivered to your door."

Chen Fan said: "And then?"

"We didn't find that freezer, so we suspect…"

Li Tian didn't continue, seemingly waiting for Chen Fan to finish the sentence for him.

But Chen Fan didn't fall for it, saying: "Suspect all you want, why finish the sentence? I'm just a forensic doctor, I don't do deductions."

Li Tian said: "Alright, alright, is it really that hard to do a little deduction? You always say you don't deduce, but you clearly have the ability."

Chen Fan said: "Having the ability is one thing, can't I just not want to use it? I'm a good student — I would never go against our Old Liu."

Hahahaha.

Everyone burst out laughing.

Chen Fan actually saying something like that — before, he had made Old Liu angry enough.

Of course, that was in terms of words.

When it came to professional matters, Chen Fan would still listen where he should.

"Old Liu hears you say that, he'd probably laugh out loud."

Li Tian said without hesitation, then shook his head helplessly.

"And I haven't finished — besides the freezer, we also found he bought a large commercial sawmill."

"According to our investigation, he's a manager at a financial company. Why would he buy a large commercial sawmill?"

Suspicious points piled up.

When Li Tian said it, it was also phrased as a question.

Wait.

Chen Fan suddenly thought of something and asked Li Tian: "Tell me, is there a possibility that…"

Before the words were finished.

Suddenly, Li Tian's phone rang again — the caller ID showed Old Song.

He picked up the call.

Old Song said: "Just now a colleague who claimed to be the flight attendant's came to the police station and told us that the flight attendant had once said to her, if one day the flight attendant went missing, never assume it was an accident — it was definitely her husband's doing."

Li Tian had already put the call on speaker.

Chen Fan heard it too.

Although a colleague had come to say this, they couldn't convict the man based on just this one-sided account.

The livestream audience, however, got worked up over it.

"I knew it! The husband definitely killed her. The flight attendant must be dead. She said this to her colleague before — this husband must have tried to kill the flight attendant more than once."

"Damn! When will there ever be an end to cases like this? If you can't live together, just get a divorce — why kill someone?"

"No, you guys have watched this show for so long, how are you still not using your brains? This is completely one-sided from that colleague, it can't be used as testimony."

"Doesn't matter, whether it's testimony or not, so what? Right now the only suspect is the husband."

"I just thought of a possibility — the husband killed the flight attendant and hid her body in the freezer. He might even have put her body into the sawmill and ground it up."

"Holy crap, that's terrifying? That's even more horrifying than dismembering the whole body — could this husband really bring himself to do that?"

"Heh, who knows. Some people, when they're ruthless, can even kill their own parents."

……

What the audience could deduce, Chen Fan and the others could obviously deduce too.

But investigating a case doesn't work by deduction alone — you need solid evidence.

The body and eyewitness testimony, the two most critical pieces of evidence, were both missing.

Even if they caught the killer now, they couldn't convict him.

And the detention time had reached its limit — the police had to release the suspect.

This kind of helplessness was something no one wanted to see.

The carpet-style search of the villa was over; whatever evidence needed to be taken had been taken.

The carpet and mattress were both sent to the forensic examination room.

Testing the bloodstains on the mattress was actually very simple — it only required the o-tolidine test, antigen test, species test, and microscopic analysis.

And you could determine what the blood situation was.

In less than half an hour.

The entire examination was completed. Old Liu photographed the report and sent it to Chen Fan.

The report showed.

The bloodstains on the mattress and the bloodstains on the carpet were from the same person, and were human type O positive circulating blood — in other words, not female menstrual blood.

After comparing the flight attendant's hair obtained from the villa with the bloodstain DNA of Zhang Dong.

It was quickly confirmed that these bloodstains were indeed left behind by the flight attendant.

This further proved one point — the flight attendant had definitely been injured at home.

Eight o'clock in the evening.

Chen Fan and the others, who had been out running around all day, only now arrived at the cafeteria for dinner.

It was no longer mealtime — the food had already gone cold.

Old Liu still had the kitchen put in overtime, reheating the food before bringing it out.

Today everyone really was starving.

The moment the food came out, it was snatched up.

Especially Chen Fan and Xiang Qinqin — the two of them ate without any regard for appearances.

The two of them even justified it prettily, saying good food must not be let down.

"If we hadn't found conclusive evidence, does that mean we'd have to let that man go?"

Ju Jingyi asked between bites of her meal.
