The next day.
Fang Ze, who had slept very late yesterday, only got up at 10 am. After a simple breakfast, he wandered aimlessly on the streets.
Whether it was the investigation of the suspect or the questioning of the people present, it would take time.
He just needed to wait quietly.
Fang Ze was thinking about the sleeping pills in the victim's stomach.
Theoretically speaking, everyone at the gathering had the opportunity to do this, but they had sufficient alibis after that.
Was it possible that the sleeping pills had nothing to do with Ling Xiu's death?
If there was a connection, it could be confirmed that this was a deliberate murder. The person who drugged the drug was also the murderer.
If there was no contact, then who was the one who put the sleeping pills? What was his motive?
In his mind, Fang Ze connected all the clues he had found so far. After thinking about it seriously for a while, he deduced a few possibilities.
However, it was only a possibility. As for the truth, he still needed to investigate.
Just then, Fang Ze's phone rang.
The ringtone interrupted his thoughts.
Fang Ze pulled out his phone and glanced at the caller ID.
It was Luo Xin.
……
"Hello?"
……
"Where are you? If there's any new information, come to the station directly.”
……
Luo Xinxin did not say much and just told Fang Ze to hurry over.
After hearing the new situation, Fang Ze did not hesitate and hailed a cab.
Twenty minutes later, Fang Ze arrived outside the interrogation room.
However, Fang Ze was a little surprised by the person who was being questioned.
Ling Xiu's husband, Shang Lihui.
"What happened?" Fang Ze glanced at Shang Lihui, who was sitting in silence, and turned to ask Luo Xiexin.
Luo Xin did not say much and handed a document to Fang Ze.
Fang Ze took it and looked at it. He asked in surprise,"Ling Xiu's huge insurance policy? The beneficiary is Shang Lihui…"
Personal accident insurance. If Ling Xiu died an unnatural death, Shang Lihui would receive a huge compensation of at least two million yuan.
"What did he say?" Fang Ze asked.
Luo Xinxin said," The insurance policy was signed by Ling Xiu. As for why the beneficiary was Shang Lihui and not his own son, he didn't give a satisfactory explanation. He only said that Ling Xiu insisted on it. Don't you think it's strange?”
Fang Ze remained silent and did not comment on this matter.
This was already a matter of ethics and emotions, and it was not something that outsiders could comment on.
According to common sense, since Ling Xiu had bought insurance for him, the beneficiary should be the person closest to him.
Although Shang Lihui was her husband, he was still far from her biological son.
Of course, this was only from an emotional point of view. No one knew what Ling Xiu was thinking, and no one could force her to make a decision.
"You suspect that Shang Lihui killed Ling Xiu to cheat insurance?”
Fang Ze asked after putting down the insurance policy.
"Is it impossible? This could be considered a motive for murder. We all know what kind of family Shang Lihui is.”Luo Xin said.
Fang Ze did not comment.
There was a possibility, but there was a very important problem.
"What do you say about the alibi?" Fang Ze said.
The hotel's surveillance camera captured it very clearly. Ever since Ling Xiu left, Shang Lihui had only gone out to take a call halfway and returned in less than five minutes.
In such a short period of time, he could not do anything, let alone kill anyone.
Luo Xin looked at Fang Ze seriously with a strange look in her eyes.
Fang Ze immediately understood what Luo Xinxin meant. He raised his eyebrows and said," Ling Xiu's death was discovered by Shang Lihui…"
From this perspective, Shang Lihui indeed had ample time to kill.
After killing someone, he pretended to report the case?
"And didn't you find sleeping pills in the victim's body last night?" Luo Xin asked. Who could secretly tamper with Ling Xiu's food?”
"As for the masked man in the surveillance camera, it might just be a coincidence. There's no evidence to prove that he's the murderer.”
"What do you think?"
She needed Fang Ze's opinion.
Thinking of the confusion in Ling Xiu's eyes before she died, Fang Ze fell into deep thought.
Luo Xin's idea was very bold. Theoretically, it was entirely possible.
However, Fang Ze felt that there were too many loopholes.
For example, the murderer did not leave any fingerprints, which meant that he was wearing gloves when he committed the crime. Then, after killing the person, where was the item?
They searched through all the trash cans, including all the places near the hotel that could be thrown, but they found nothing. Shang Lihui did not leave the hotel either.
Another example was the forensic examination, which showed that the time of death of the deceased was around 2:30.
At this time, the KTV was not over yet.
Although the time of death was affected by many factors, there might be some differences and even human interference.
However, Shang Lihui obviously didn't have the time nor the ability to do so.
After thinking about it, there were many suspicious points that could not support Luo Xin's deduction.
Therefore, Fang Ze did not think that Shang Lihui had anything to do with this.
