Looking at the two's shocked expressions, Song Ye became curious.
"What's wrong with you two?”
If Song Ye hadn't mentioned Kong Zhongshun's possible burial place, Qin Feng and Guan Hongfeng would have been surprised. But Song Ye had told them the news the night before.
"Captain, we really didn't expect that your speculation would actually come true.”
Qin Feng replied with a bitter smile. Guan Hongfeng also nodded and said,"Yes, when you talked to us last night, although we supported it, we didn't really agree with that possibility.”
"I see. I almost thought I forgot to share this news with you.”
Song Ye smiled back. Every detective had their own thoughts about a case.
This was not about the level of skill, but about his opinion on the case.
However, now that Song Ye had announced the results of the appearance appraisal, Qin Feng and Guan Hongfeng immediately retracted their thoughts and began to analyze it seriously.
"Assuming that the final result is that the skeleton belongs to the taxi driver, Kong Zhongshun, what should we do about this new discovery?”
Guan Hongfeng asked. Qin Feng immediately replied,"After Kong Zhongshun was discovered, there are still a few possibilities.”
"First, Kong Zhongshun is still suspected of murder or being an accomplice, but one thing is certain: both Hong Guo's and Kong Zhongshun's deaths are related to that tomb. Although we don't know who the murderer is, we can first determine his motive.”
"Second, Kong Zhongshun is still the scapegoat. The murderer is likely creating obstacles for us to continue investigating Kong Zhongshun. For example, was Kong Zhongshun the mastermind behind this tomb robbery?”
Qin Feng had only mentioned two possibilities. Now, there were only two possibilities.
The six or seven possibilities that he had speculated before could be ruled out after Kong Zhongshun's remains were found in the tomb.
"Of these two possibilities, the one that needs to be paid the most attention to is the second one. The murderer had obvious traces of framing, and he even had a certain gambler mentality. Hiding Kong Zhongshun's body in the tomb was because he was betting on whether the archeological team would find any clues.”
"Secondly, he is also betting on whether the police will continue to follow Kong Zhongshun's lead once the skeleton is found.”
"Considering that this case has always been in this direction, I suggest that our investigation focus should be on Hong Guo. We should use Hong Guo as the key person to obtain information about the possible murderer!”
After Guan Hongfeng finished speaking, Song Ye also began to analyze in his heart. Then, he said,
"Indeed, the murderer tried to shift the suspicion to Kong Zhongshun almost all the time. The more this is the case, the more we have to clear the layers of fog and find the key points.”
"And from the current case, Hong Guo played an extremely important role in this.”
"That's right, just like what Captain had guessed, Hong Country must have hidden the fact that the tomb was discovered. So, who did Hong Guo discover the tomb with? Moreover, after discovering the tomb, they must have investigated it on the spot.”
"The most important question is who he brought with him!”
As Guan Hongfeng spoke, Qin Feng started to hesitate.
Guan Hongfeng couldn't help but ask,""Qin Feng, do you have a different opinion?”
"I was thinking that if Hong Country discovered the tomb with a group of grave robbers, where should we start investigating?”
Qin Feng voiced out his thoughts, which coincided with what Song Ye had asked the old prisoners previously.
"This is indeed not easy to investigate. After all, grave robbers would never openly tell others their profession. Most grave robbers hide their identities.”
"But then again, let's use the method we decided on before to eliminate them one by one. If no one can provide us with the identity of the person who discovered the tomb with Hong Guo, then we will look for the possibility of grave robbers.”
"Captain Guan is the only way. Captain, do you have a better way?”Qin Feng asked Song Ye.
Song Ye pondered for a moment and said," What the two of you said is actually a little too broad. I wonder if you still remember that we talked about something in our previous discussion?”
"Hmm? I understand now, Captain is talking about Hong Guo's whereabouts!”Qin Feng reacted. Guan Hongfeng continued,
"Now that I think about it, the two points do need to be connected. Hong Guo's car broke down three days before the accident, so he appeared at the school gate at nine o'clock at night. Kong Zhongshun's taxi drove past Hong Guo and stopped the taxi. Then, the taxi drove out of Hong Guo and was killed!”
"This case, coupled with the fact that Hong Guobao did not resist before he was killed, we can completely assume that Hong Guo and the murderer had an agreement!”
"Eh…that means it has nothing to do with Kong Zhongshun. Why would the murderer use a taxi as a killing tool? Was it because the other tools were not easy to hide? However, there were still many illegal vehicles in that era.”
"So, Kong Zhongshun must be involved in the case!”Qin Feng replied to Guan Hongfeng. The latter nodded heavily,"Kong Zhongshun is also involved in the case. He, Hong Guo, and the murderer must have been to the tomb together.”
"Yes, only when they went there together and discovered the tomb together could everyone be involved. Kong Zhongshun was in charge of transportation, while Hong Guo was in charge of technical survey or treasure identification. As for the murderer, it was very likely that he was the one who did it!”
"They had already agreed on the day of the attack from the very beginning, so the car could appear not long after Kong Zhongshun left the school gate and drag him to hell. In this case, the person who killed Hong Guo must have a deep relationship with him. In fact, the possibility of him being a tomb robber was not high!”
Qin Feng and Guan Hongfeng's thoughts were like floodwaters pouring out of an open dam. Even Song Ye's thoughts were spinning non-stop.
Then, he had a new idea in his heart and said,"If that's the case, then this case is ultimately about money. After all, tombs were directly related to antiques and treasures. Since the tomb was preserved to the greatest extent and was not completely looted, did it mean that the person who could obtain the greatest benefits was related to the museum?”
"Back then, how many people were there in Jiang Prefecture and Hong Country who initiated the establishment of the museum?”Qin Feng and Guan Hongfeng asked simultaneously.
"Three!" Song Ye replied.
