Chapter 677 Interrogation
Interrogation room.
The criminal suspect Han Xu was tied up on the interrogation chair, his hands, feet and back were all locked tightly.
He had his back to the clock, and in front of him were only three policemen sitting upright and cameras, with iron railings in the middle. The closed room without windows was not stuffy, but it had a damp smell like a basement.
Han Xu guessed that this should be the basement.
Therefore, it was basically impossible to escape by opening the window or rushing out like in the movie. He needs to defeat three policemen, open the iron railings and the locked door, and then he can enter the basement outside. He doesn't know what's going on outside...
Han Xu thought about it for a few seconds, and then said: "I have said that I did kill the person. I am also a single person, without any accomplices."
The interrogating police officer remained calm and said: "Okay, then tell me where the bodies are hidden."
"I threw some into the pond, and some I buried. Didn't you find them all?"
"I found them, but what if I found the wrong one, so I have to check with you." The interrogating police officer was a bit like chatting, and essentially wanted to make Han Xu relax.
He didn't believe Han Xu's confession.
Originally, a murderer like Han Xu should be easier to interrogate.
People have a desire to talk, and killing is actually a kind of "victory" from a high position.
If a teenager, young man, middle-aged or elderly man wins a fight, he will excitedly announce it, and even show off many times. When a serial killer kills for the first time, he may be nervous or even have conflicts of interest, but the subsequent killings are definitely accompanied by psychological factors. This is also one of the foundations of psychological profiling.
Murderers like Han Xu used to keep their mouths shut in order to escape punishment. Now that he has been caught, he should know that he can't escape no matter what he says. Taking the opportunity to vent his emotions is often a characteristic of such criminals.
However, Han Xu did not do this.
He looked at the interrogating police calmly and said, "You found it, I have no obligation to verify it for you."
"Do you think this is bargaining? Be serious!" The police next to him immediately shouted and put on a classic black face.
Han Xu was not affected, he laughed and leaned back: "You are being arrogant, I always wrap a towel around my neck, ugh..."
Han Xu showed two teeth and smiled like a black car driver soliciting customers at the airport.
"We have seen a lot of your tricks. If you don't cooperate, I will send you back to the detention center." The interrogating police was very anxious in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
People who often go to the detention center know that interrogation is actually more interesting than staying there. The preparations and exchanges before and after disrupt the routine life in the detention center, but make people feel relaxed, just like spending a short May Day holiday. Tired? Very tired. Is it fun? Not fun. Will you go again? Yes!
In addition, there are corresponding systems in the detention center to make you live in accordance with the rules. For example, snacks in the canteen used to be available to those with more money, but now it has become a commodity transaction under the points system. You need to meet certain points requirements to buy a certain amount of goods. As for the points, you naturally have to be good, which also includes the attitude and performance during the interrogation.
Han Xu's smile was restrained involuntarily.
He usually travels around the world with an honest face. It is not easy to run a 3.2-meter van in the city. From time to time, he has to help carry goods. He earns hard-earned money. When he meets the owner of the goods, he has to smile from time to time.
In comparison, he rarely showed his fierce character. In fact, when he killed people, he strangled them from behind, and it was not so easy to look them in the face.
"You just said that some bodies were thrown into the pond. Whose bodies were thrown into which pond?" The interrogating police officer asked again.
Han Xu's evasive words just now had no effect at all.
For the police, the most basic interrogation technique is to ask details, and it is very difficult to fabricate details.
...
Monitoring room.
Li Haochen watched Han Xu's interrogation silently and compared it with the profile he made.
Li Haochen found at this time that what affected his judgment the most was that he set the murderer as a single person. In fact, he also thought about the possibility of a gang crime, but various evidence showed that the possibility of a gang crime was very low. For example, the three bodies in the tomb were buried at different times, which was very inconsistent with the nature of a gang crime.
In addition, the body sunk in the sewage pool is even more casual. If the gang commits a crime, even if they are not more cautious, the accomplices will not let you deal with the body so sloppily. It is not a big deal for two or three people to dig another pit.
Li Haochen never thought that the murderer and his accomplices actually acted separately.
As for how they acted specifically... Li Haochen couldn't help but look at Tao Lu and asked, "Have you found Han Xu's master, the chef?"
"I found him and he is still working in the store. It's lunchtime in his store and there are many customers." Tao Lu looked at his watch. He was also under a lot of pressure. Han Xu's master Mei Gangzou was monitored by the police yesterday, but Tao Lu has not agreed to arrest him.
From the outside, Mei Gangzou is just an ordinary chef, and his social circle with Han Xu basically has no overlap. And from a simple investigation of him, no hard evidence has yet emerged.
Although Han Xu and Mei Gangzou had many text messages, the text messages themselves were simple phrases, and it was difficult to prove that the two were accomplices. It was impossible to arrest Han Xu just because he knew him.
Tao Lu's idea was to wait for the news of Han Xu's arrest to reach Mei Gangzou, and then obtain evidence based on Mei Gangzou's actions.
There was naturally a huge risk in this.
The most important point was that if Mei Gangzou escaped and succeeded in escaping, Tao Lu would be directly credited with the merits and the faults. Secondly, even if Mei Gangzou did not run away, but simply committed suicide, Tao Lu, who made the decision, would still be responsible.
Therefore, the most correct approach now is to arrest and then interrogate. Even if the interrogation failed and Mei Gangzou could not be prosecuted, Tao Lu would still follow the procedure.
However, facing the murder case with the largest number of people solved by the Zhengguang Bureau in recent years, Tao Lu was not prepared to perfunctorily deal with it.
He resisted the opinions of the superiors and waited wholeheartedly for Mei Gangzou's actions.
"He should know that Han Xu has been arrested." Li Haochen frowned and said, "We didn't hide it when we arrested Han Xu."
"He may be sure that Han Xu will not sell him out." Tao Lu glanced at the monitoring room.
Li Haochen said, "Indeed, he didn't sell him out. If it weren't for the problem of Niudao, we wouldn't even guess that there were other people involved in this series of murders. To be honest, even if I were to do this case, I would rather do it alone. Master Mei Gangzou... I don't know what he taught, and where he got his teaching experience from."
The expressions of the people present were all heavy. Many people actually guessed what Li Haochen guessed. You have never killed anyone, so why can you be a master?
Mei Gangzou is 47 years old this year, and no one knows when he started killing people, when he stopped, or... did he never stop?
Tao Lu's eyes were even more complicated.
He and Huang Qiangmin had just killed 10 bodies, and Han Xu, an apprentice, had killed 6 bodies!
