Chapter 1093: Move Over

Liu Jinghui invested a lot in Liu Chengming's case.

He was still a bit different from Jiang Yuan. Compared to Jiang Yuan's "utilitarianism," Liu Jinghui was purer about the profession of detective. To a certain extent, Jiang Yuan just wanted the criminals to die, while Liu Jinghui thought about how to play with the criminals.

Therefore, although Liu Chengming had a high probability of receiving the death penalty due to the Dongxi Lake corpse burning case, Liu Jinghui still bit down hard and didn't let go, stubbornly digging out the previous case.

Of course, this was very meaningful for the Lanyue City Criminal Police Detachment. It was equivalent to solving another cold homicide case, and it could be said to have been solved in a timely manner. Otherwise, if they really waited for the death penalty review and executed Liu Chengming, it would become difficult to solve the previous cold homicide case later.

This is also one of the reasons why cold homicide cases are hard to solve. People die, and murderers are no exception. Furthermore, being a murderer is a profession with a high mortality rate. So, it's fine if the current case is solved at the time, but after three or five years, the murderer always has a certain probability of dying outside. By then, even if some physical evidence is found, it's a pity if there's no confession from the murderer.

Jiang Yuan confirmed the completion of the Liu Chengming case at noon. Because at noon, when he was re-examining the corpse at the funeral home, a blue, glowing ball suddenly emerged from a box of burnt bone fragments.

Jiang Yuan picked it up and saw Li Miaoyan's legacy:

Adolescent Emotional Guidance (LV1) — Li Miaoyan had never felt love or happiness; at least before she became an adult, there were no such memories. Her younger sister was the first person to love her unconditionally. Li Miaoyan tried her best to satisfy all her sister's needs, hoping to let her sister feel love and happiness. And after making such a decision, Li Miaoyan realized how difficult this was. Despite this, Li Miaoyan believed that she could persist, until her sister entered puberty and actually turned into a stranger...

Jiang Yuan silently scanned the system interface.

The two victims of the Dongxi Lake corpse burning case, including the murderer Liu Chengming, had never lived a happy life. As for whether they had felt love, outsiders had no way to investigate.

If these three people had been born into famous families, the tangled story between the three of them would probably have been fought over to be made into a movie.

Or rather, if these three people had been born into famous families, there might not have been any tangled story between the three of them.

Li Miaoyan herself might not necessarily have been willing to look for two men; more so, it was just because a single man, Liu Chengming, couldn't afford to support her and a younger sister who was studying, and studying at a better school with a better quality of life.

Liu Chengming was likely a charming male. This could be seen from his first homicide case, where the female victim could take a liking to him.

However, Liu Chengming was clearly not good at making money, or rather, the money he earned as an excavator operator was neither enough for romantic expenses nor enough to support a family with high quality.

Just in terms of the emotional trigger, what made Liu Chengming pull the trigger to kill was only 800 yuan.

Beep...

Jiang Yuan's phone rang.

Jiang Yuan picked it up and asked, "Did Liu Chengming confess?"

Liu Jinghui laughed loudly on the other end and said, "You've learned to reason too."

"Calculated the time, it's about right." Jiang Yuan exhaled and asked again, "Did the head confess?"

He was talking about the head of the male victim who had been decapitated.

"Confessed. If he didn't confess to this, I wouldn't call you. The head was cut off by this guy, put into a red paint bucket, filled with stones and sand, and then thrown into Dongxi Lake. The visibility of Dongxi Lake is okay. Our frogmen specifically looked for the red paint bucket and have already found it." Liu Jinghui was happy. What he gained from this case was far more satisfying than solving the case itself.

And since the head was found, it indirectly proved that Liu Chengming was the murderer.

This kind of deadly secret—if you aren't the murderer, you're an accomplice. Unless Liu Chengming's lawyer can provide strong evidence, the court will basically accept it.

In other words, Liu Chengming is dead for sure.

Thus, Jiang Yuan also felt satisfied.

"Since that's the case, I won't go back today. The police officers who are fine can also take a break." Jiang Yuan seized the time to arrange.

The police officers of Jiang Yuan's cold case task force are the same as ordinary criminal police; there are no days off during the case handling period. Although it is said that civil servants and police don't follow labor laws, as a boss, one should follow the laws of being a human.

Everyone usually doesn't have time to take a break because the case can't afford to be delayed. Now that the case is solved, they should naturally take a break in a tight manner. Otherwise, when the next case is handled, they won't know when the vacation will be delayed to.

Dragging it on day by day like this, there will always be some vacations that will be dragged away.

Liu Jinghui smiled and agreed. He was currently in a "sage time" and wasn't in a hurry to handle any more cases.

Dai Mingsheng and the others were equally well-behaved. After making a phone call to talk, they went to do their own things.

The case was solved, and it should be celebrated. But for the police officers of Jiang Yuan's cold case task force, they had solved many cases, and they didn't value celebrations while in a foreign land.

But the next day, a group of police officers spontaneously gathered together.

Jiang Yuan was also called over by Liu Jinghui.

Liu Jinghui's expression was solemn. When he saw Jiang Yuan, he couldn't speak for a while.

"Is there a major case?" Jiang Yuan realized this at the first moment.

Liu Jinghui shook his head slowly and firmly, but said: "Dai Mingsheng, that old fox, he bought tickets for the families of the special task force and invited everyone to come to Lanyue City for tourism."

"So generous?" Jiang Yuan was stunned: "Is it compliant?"

"Right! How can anyone do things like this! This is simply the story of the farmer and the snake!" Liu Jinghui lashed out heavily, saying: "He even sent official letters to the units of the families who needed it to facilitate their leave. It's simply blinded by greed!"

Jiang Yuan was confused: "He invited the families to come, so he must be reimbursing the round-trip expenses. How are the accommodation and meal expenses calculated? It's impossible to let the families pay for it themselves, right."

"Their Lanyue City Bureau has plenty of money. What's reimbursement?" Liu Jinghui snorted: "But they can't act recklessly just because they have money!"

Just as they were talking, Wang Chuanxing ran over: "Director Liu, the car to pick up your wife has arrived."

"Coming." Liu Jinghui suddenly wiped his face and ran over to pick up the person.

Dinner.

It just so happened that there were Wuding strong chickens sent from Jiangfuzhen, and the cook came along with them, so Jiang Yuan arranged for a steam pot chicken.

Wuding strong chicken belongs to a very delicious breed of chicken in China. However, it is not delicious purely because of the breed, but because the local people are good at castration.

Compared to the common capon in Hainan, the best of the Wuding strong chickens are the rare capon hens in the country.

As everyone knows, in big cities now, neutering a male cat costs hundreds of yuan, and neutering a female cat costs thousands of yuan. And for a capon hen, which is more difficult, it only costs tens to hundreds of yuan per jin. Just eating this surgery fee, the cost-effectiveness is full.

Secondly, Wuding strong chicken is castrated when it is young. It will therefore secrete a small amount of male hormones. When it grows up, it is more like a male chicken. Not only are the feathers brighter, but it will also crow. It belongs to the LGBT breed of chicken and belongs to a global fashion product. It is qualified to be on any dining table.

And in terms of taste, the capon hen does have its unique features. It is fatter than a capon, and it is not as tough as hen meat. Imagine a person; it has both the high body fat rate of a female and the large muscles of a male. Eating it is naturally tender and juicy.

More than 30 criminal police officers, together with more than a dozen family members, all felt the sensation and praised it endlessly.

Dai Mingsheng also found a gap, held a wine glass to Jiang Yuan's side, and smiled: "Everyone says that southerners know how to eat chicken. The taste of this Wuding strong chicken is even more special. Team Leader Jiang has introduced us to another good thing. Thank you, thank you..."

Jiang Yuan smiled: "Castration is the best way to improve the breed."

"Makes sense. Europeans just don't castrate pigs, making the pork inedible." Dai Mingsheng immediately followed the rhythm.

With a dignified detachment leader accompanying him to chat, Jiang Yuan also had a bit of a burden. He looked at Huang Qiangmin, who was entangled by others, from a distance, and smiled: "Director Dai has put his heart into it this time. Do you have any thoughts on your side?"

"I just want to keep you for a few more days. No other thoughts." Dai Mingsheng acted like a scumbag, first reducing the burden on both sides, and then said: "Speaking of this, our municipal bureau has a few houses vacant in the city center. You staying in a hotel every day is not a solution. Why don't you move over?" ===== CHAPTER 1094 =====
