In his second marriage, Song Zuo had been living a two-faced life. At home, he was a good husband and father, but outside, he was a thief who committed many crimes.
He told his wife, Tian Lan, that he dabbled in calligraphy and painting. Song Zuo did like to fiddle with these things on a daily basis. Every time he wanted to go abroad to steal things, he would lie to Tian Lan that he was going abroad to collect goods. When he came back, he often brought back some gold and silver jewelry, so Tian Lan was kept in the dark and did not know his identity as a cat burglar.
Just like that, five to six years passed peacefully with Tian Lan.
However, in these five to six years, Song Zuo was influenced by his first wife, Xiao Qin, and was worried that Tian Lan would be like Xiao Qin and cheat on him.
He had been keeping a close eye on Tian Lan. He did not allow her to talk to the opposite sex, nor did he allow her to chat with men on the internet. He even frequently looked through her phone.
In the end, Tian Lan finally couldn't stand Song Zuo's perverted control and resisted Song Zuo.
Song Zuo didn't want her to cheat, but she insisted. Every time Song Zuo went out to collect goods, she would go out for a date with a man she met online.
Tian Lan had been meeting other men many times, but she was still discovered by the vigilant Song Zuo. He was so angry that he wanted to kill Tian Lan.
In the end, under Tian Lan's pleading and the fact that he still had a five-year-old son to take care of, Song Zuo finally chose to forgive Tian Lan.
However, because of the long-term depression in his heart, the resentment in his heart could not be vented. From then on, his heart began to twist. When he saw those beautiful women who looked like Xiao Qin and Tian Lan, he had an inexplicable urge to kill them.
The first person he chose to commit a crime was Tang Bi, who looked somewhat similar to Xiao Qin. Although he was an experienced thief, it was his first time killing someone. So when he broke into the house to kill Tang Bi, he was very nervous and even made a lot of noise. Tang Bi shouted when she found him, and he was so scared that he immediately fled and escaped.
After the first murder failed, Song Zuo did not stop there. Instead, he analyzed and summarized his experience before moving to City X, which was hundreds of kilometers away from City H, to continue his crime. This time, he succeeded. He killed a young woman who lived alone. His modus operandi was the same as the two murders he committed in Jiangzhou City. However, he did not leave a note at the crime scene to provoke the police.
After killing the man, Song Zuo felt an unprecedented perverted pleasure. Then, he fled back to City H and stayed at home for a long time.
Seeing that the police in City X did not suspect him, he began to despise the incompetence of the police. He became more and more daring and even wanted to play a game of "mouse teasing cat" with the police.
Then, he carefully planned to kill Tian Qing and Liu Ya. He thought that he was smart and thought that the police would not be able to find him if he did not leave any traces at the crime scene. He even thought that he could not leave his own words at the crime scene. Instead, he left the words he taught his son to write.
Song Zuo's son was only five years old and did not understand the meaning of the words on the note. He wrote whatever Song Zuo asked him to write.
Song Zuo thought that the police would never think that the note was written by his son, but he didn't expect Meng Fan to be the one who killed him.
In the end, even though Song Zuo confessed to the crime, in order to solidify the fact that he had killed someone, the note and Song Zuo's confession were not enough. He still needed a strong evidence.
Meng Fan found a strong piece of evidence from Song Zuo's confession. It was the headgear Song Zuo wore every time he committed a crime.
Song Zuo said in his confession that every time he committed a crime, when he cut the victims with a knife, the blood on their bodies would splatter onto his face. For some reason, he felt very happy.
Song Zuo had always been wearing a balaclava when he committed the crime, so the blood naturally splattered on the balaclava.
Meng Fan deduced from this detail that Song Zuo's mask must have been stained with the blood of the victims.
As long as they found the mask, even if Song Zuo retracted his confession in court, he would still be sentenced to death.
Heaven does not disappoint those who work hard! After Geng Dafei brought a group of people to search Song Zuo's house, they finally found the bloody mask.
After Lu Jia's test, it was indeed stained with the blood of the three victims killed by Song Zuo.
At this point, the case was officially solved.
In order to calm the public opinion online and reassure the people of Jiangzhou, the Serious Crime Division Two held a press conference to announce some details of the case.
At the press conference, Meng Fan became the center of attention.
After the media spread the news, Meng Fan was called Jiangzhou's " New Star of Cracking Case " by netizens. He was considered a little popular.
In view of Meng Fan's meritorious service in solving the case, the bureau awarded him a second-class merit and a corresponding bonus.
The other team leaders were envious when they saw Meng Fan solve many strange cases for Team 2, making Team 2 stand out.
They all invited Meng Fan to their team, asking him to help them solve the case.
And Meng Fan would help as much as he could without affecting Team 2's work.
