Detective: Open your eyes, I am handcuffed in the interrogation room

In the case handling hall, Chen Yi found a place to sit down. He now needed to think carefully about possible breakthroughs.

Everyone did not interrupt and went about their work.

Not long after, He Xin moved a chair and sat in front of Chen Yi and said: "I'm afraid it's not that easy to investigate this case clearly. There are many kinds of evidence for abetting murder, but for this case, it seems that only the mute woman confession."

"Am I still worried that the mute woman's confession can be used as evidence? If Ma Yilong refuses to give a zero confession and goes to court, the outcome is really hard to say."

"Besides...did he really do it?"

Now it is just suspicion, there is no evidence pointing to Ma Yilong abetting the murder.

Chen Yi silently smoked a cigarette and said: "Judging from the clues we have and Ma Yilong's reaction to the interrogation, he is suspected of instigating the mute woman to kill Lu Qiucheng. We can investigate him as a suspect, but now... There’s no clear direction.”

"We cannot judge the authenticity of Ma Yilong's words, and the mute woman's IQ limits our interrogation. This case will probably be a protracted battle."

"Let's see our luck. We will investigate step by step. All matters related to this case will be investigated and implemented. There can be no omissions."

When new: "What do you mean?"

Chen Yi: "Everything, including who is Zhai Yiling's biological father, the actual relationship between the mute girl, Ma Yilong, and Lu Qiucheng, and... check the surveillance."

"Monitoring?" Shi Xin didn't understand this time and asked in surprise: "What kind of surveillance are you checking?"

Chen Yi: "Didn't Zhai Yiling say that she had a dispute with Lu Qiucheng? Ask for the exact time and place, and see if you can find the surveillance camera and reconstruct the scene at that time."

"Lu Qiucheng's attitude towards Zhai Yiling is very important. When Zhai Yiling angrily accused Lu Qiucheng of having evil intentions, was Lu Qiucheng helpless or angry? I think it can be seen more or less from his body language."

"If he became angry and behaved rudely towards Zhai Yiling, then Ma Yilong's words would be credible."

Shi Xin nodded slightly: "This can be considered to confirm whether Zhai Yiling's words are true. However, although the retention period of road surveillance and campus surveillance is one to three months, the actual situation may be different. Sometimes the school has Cost considerations, it will be covered within a month.”

Chen Yi: "Let's check it out and forget it if we can't find it. In fact, it doesn't mean much. Even if Lu Qiucheng really has evil intentions towards Zhai Yiling, Ma Yilong can definitely use this matter to achieve his own murderous purpose."

When is the new: "That's true."

Chen Yi: "It's one of the clues anyway. Let's go check it out."

Shi Xin: "Okay, I'll go right now."

When Shi Xin left, Chen Yi called Zhuo Yun over.

"Inform the police station to assemble the team and call the forensic doctor. We will go to Donghua Village to extract DNA and find Zhai Yiling's biological father."

"By the way, I want to visit and learn about the relationship between the three of them."

Zhuo Yun: "Yes!"

Chen Yi: "Oh, by the way, don't forget Ma Yilong, extract his DNA first."

When the mute girl was fifteen and Ma Yilong was eighteen, everything was possible.

Zhuo Yun: "Understood."

…

At night, Chen Yi led the team to Donghua Village in the middle of the meal. At this time, most of the villagers had finished their work and went home, either eating or waiting to eat. The people were relatively uniform, which saved trouble.

The police from the police station arrived early and had been waiting for a long time. There were many police cars parked along the way to the village entrance.

There were five forensic doctors and forensic assistants in total. Zhuo Yun assigned tasks. The group entered the village and extracted DNA and conducted interviews at the same time.

Regardless of whether they cooperate or not, as long as the men meet the age limit, they will have to undergo DNA extraction. This is no longer an interview, but an investigation of the rape case from that year.

Seduction is also rape. With the intelligence of a mute woman, there is no way she would be willing to say this.

Chen Yi did not join the team, so he asked a random villager, and went to Ma Yilong's hometown with Qin Fei.

Ma Yilong's father is Ma Jiankun.

Sixty years old and with gray hair, Ma Jiankun was having dinner with his wife when Chen Yi and Qin Fei came to the door.

"The captain of the city bureau's detachment?"

After learning Chen Yi's identity, Ma Jiankun became enthusiastic. He immediately stopped eating to greet the two of them to sit down, and asked his wife to make tea quickly.

After all, he is a retired village cadre. Although he has an obvious rural temperament, his speech is very different from other villagers, and he has obviously seen the world.

Village cadres are also cadres. As a saying goes, don’t use bean bags as dry food.

Chen Yi originally signaled to the other party to eat first and the two parties could chat while eating, but Ma Jiankun naturally would not be so rude and treated him first.

Only those who have been officials will know what it means to be a thirty-year-old detachment leader. How dare he neglect it.

Chen Yi secretly sighed in his heart, if Ma Yilong really instigated the murder, then Ma Jiankun's gray hair might turn completely white overnight and he would age ten years.

"Chen Zhi, are you here on any business today?" Ma Jiankun asked with a smile.

Chen Yi was straightforward: "Look for who caused the mute girl to become pregnant."

The simple opening remarks directly made Ma Jiankun's smile freeze there, and he didn't say a word for a long time. This thing was so sudden.

Chen Yi smiled lightly: "It seems that Mr. Ma knows about this. Why don't you tell me directly to save us forensic doctors a lot of work?"

Ma Jiankun's eyes twitched: "Forensic doctor??"

Chen Yi: "Dozens of police have entered the village. All men over thirty years old will have their DNA extracted and do a DNA paternity test with Zhai Yiling. Even if they are from other places, the samples will be sent over, including you."

"You heard that right, it's Zhai Yiling. We have found out very clearly."

Ma Jiankun: "..."

He lowered his head and remained silent. From this angle, Chen Yi could no longer see his expression.

After waiting for a while, Chen Yi said: "Mr. Ma, do you know who Zhai Yiling's biological father is?"

Ma Jiankun sighed deeply: "I really don't know. It was a big deal back then. No one admitted it and everyone was suspected. We decided to just stop telling anyone and pretend it never happened."

Chen Yi's eyes were cold: "It didn't happen? The mute woman has already given birth to a child. How could she pretend that it never happened? Why didn't she call the police?"

Ma Jiankun smiled bitterly: "Things within the village...this...oh, I'm really sorry, Chen Zhi, if I need to be held accountable, I am willing to accept the punishment."

Chen Yi: "We'll wait until we find Zhai Yiling's biological father. I'll just take care of the case."

Ma Jiankun's expression became unnatural, with a hint of worry.

Chen Yi saw this and asked, "Have you ever suspected anyone? Is it close to you? For example, Ma Yilong?"

Ma Jiankun was shocked: "How does Chen Zhi know my son's name? Have you checked him?!"

Chen Yi: "We checked. He has a good relationship with the mute girl. Of course we need to check."

Ma Jiankun asked: "Is the mute girl's child his?"

Chen Yi: "I don't know about this yet. We are comparing it. Do you think it belongs to him?"

Seeing that the matter has come to this, the Municipal Bureau's Criminal Investigation Detachment intervened, and Ma Jiankun no longer concealed it: "I did suspect it was him. He and Lu Qiucheng in the village always took good care of the mute girl and often hung out together. Later, the mute girl suddenly became pregnant. I can't believe it." Don’t you have any doubts?”

Chen Yi nodded: "That makes sense. Have you asked?"

Ma Jiankun: "Of course I asked. I also beat him and asked him if he did it. In the end, he said no, so I felt relieved."

Chen Yi: "Don't worry? Isn't that right? You are still suspicious, so you are calling on everyone not to spread the word. No matter who asks in the future, don't tell anyone. We all have a community of interests, so we naturally agree."

"Especially the married women in the village, they don't want to see that the child in the belly of the mute woman is their husband's."

This is a self-deception mechanism of psychological defense. As long as there is no answer, it has nothing to do with oneself. Except for men with a clear conscience, everyone else is afraid of seeing the answer.

Ma Jiankun was silent.

Chen Yi: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I'm not sure who Zhai Yiling's biological father is. I..."

Halfway through the conversation, the phone rang.

Chen Yi took out his cell phone and took a look. It was a call from the forensic department of the bureau.

"Hello?"

"Team Chen, the results are out. Zhai Yiling's biological father is Ma Yilong."

Ma Yilong's DNA was extracted first, and he was the first to conduct a paternity test with Zhai Yiling.

Unexpectedly, it was a hit.

Chen Yi: "Oh... ok, got it."

The call hung up and he put away his phone.

"Qin Fei, inform everyone to stop extracting DNA from villagers and only visit them."

Qin Fei stood up without asking the reason and said, "Yes, I'll make a call."

After saying that, he left the living room.

Chen Yi, who looked indifferent on the surface, had a coldness in his eyes at this moment, which was extremely biting. Recalling the scene when he first met Ma Yilong, this guy really told lies and his acting skills were superb.
