I Play Dungeons in the Police Station

Chapter 455 - 272: Key Evidence

When Wang Ruigang and Song Peijun were negotiating, Li Xiang casually looked around after entering the house.

Song Peijun’s home was not in the usual disarray expected of a bachelor’s pad, indicating that he often tidied up. The walls were covered with commendations for being an exemplary student and hand-drawn posters showing little figures.

"Your daughter is quite outstanding, and her drawings are very nice."

Li Xiang complimented him. For a single father to raise his daughter like this was truly commendable.

Hearing Li Xiang’s praise, Song Peijun’s previously resistant expression revealed a slight smile, "She’s very well-behaved and sensible, hardly causes me any worry."

"You must have been very happy before. Most of the drawings depict a family of three. Does your daughter miss her mother?"

"Sigh~"

Song Peijun sighed deeply, feeling helpless yet resigned, "Her mother was too extreme in her personality, but she was very good to the girl."

"Could you briefly tell us what kind of person Zheng Wei is? She used to change jobs frequently, do you know why?"

Using his daughter as a starting point, Li Xiang shifted the conversation to Zheng Wei, and slowly, Song Peijun began to open up.

Zheng Wei was a narrow-minded person with a strong desire for revenge. She cared deeply about others’ peculiar evaluations and looks. This time, she severely injured someone because of this.

She was unsociable and extremely vindictive.

Song Peijun spoke a lot and sighed deeply at his troubles.

Wang Ruigang later asked many questions, which he answered one by one, with a noticeably improved attitude.

"Are her things still here? We’d like to take a look."

"Yes, I’ve organized everything and placed it in the storage room. I’ll have to give these things to her once she’s out of prison. If I dispose of her things without permission, it’ll never end once she’s out, and I’m afraid of dealing with that."

Hearing that Zheng Wei’s belongings were still intact, Wang Ruigang expressed a desire to inspect them.

At this moment, Song Peijun also realized, "Did Zheng Wei get into trouble again? Isn’t she in prison now? Could it be that she’s causing a conflict and not reforming properly there?"

"Not exactly. It’s just that before sentencing, she was involved in another case. Due to confidentiality, the details cannot be disclosed for now. We hope you can cooperate."

"Sigh~"

Song Peijun sighed again but ultimately chose to cooperate.

"The storage room is this way, come and have a look."

Song Peijun led them to the storage room, opened the door, and brought out Zheng Wei’s belongings.

All of Zheng Wei’s things were neatly packed in luggage bags, laid out in an orderly manner.

Subsequently, Wang Ruigang unpacked the bags, taking out everything related to Zheng Wei.

Their team then worked on organizing these items.

Their visit had another purpose — at the scene of the eleventh homicide, the victim’s phone, wallet, and other valuables were missing. According to the family of the victims, some had lost necklaces, others earrings, along with bracelets and purses.

After killing, the murderer took anything valuable within reach.

The task now was to inspect Zheng Wei’s belongings to see if any items missing from the crime scene could be found in her home.

If any were found, it could be confirmed that Zheng Wei was the perpetrator of this case.

If not, it would be relatively difficult to get Zheng Wei to confess.

Wang Ruigang’s people acted quickly. Zheng Wei’s belongings were taken out, covering the living room floor.

Carefully inspecting each item, especially those mentioned by the victims’ families, they focused on thorough checks and repeated verifications.

Some victims’ families even provided photos of the deceased with their jewelry, making them easy to identify.

"Team Leader Wang, please come over."

At this moment, an inspector called over Wang Ruigang, and upon hearing the commotion, Li Xiang also walked over.

"Team Leader Wang, take a look at this necklace."

Wang Ruigang took the necklace and immediately noticed something. It was the necklace worn by the fifth victim. He followed this case for many years, and every detail was ingrained in his mind, but to be sure, he pulled up the photo stored on his phone to compare — identical.

"Keep searching."

Wang Ruigang placed the necklace in an evidence bag and instructed them to continue searching, confident there was more.

He then took the necklace to inquire with Song Peijun, "Did your ex-wife buy this necklace before?"

Just to be sure and rule out the possibility that Zheng Wei bought it herself, he sought verification from Song Peijun.

"I don’t remember. I never concerned myself with her buying these trinkets."

Getting no answers from Song Peijun, Wang Ruigang could only have them keep searching. The more they found, the stronger the evidence.

Soon, another inspector found a suspicious ring.

Seeing these two items, Wang Ruigang’s confidence increased; the perpetrator of case number 1 had surfaced.

The best part was, they didn’t need to catch the person; she was already in prison. They just needed to coordinate with the prison, and they’d be able to bring her back for interrogation.

-----------------

At the gate of Celestial Wolf Women’s Prison, a police car with a Yuncheng license plate arrived.

Wang Ruigang and the team brought the necessary paperwork to release Zheng Wei from prison.

"Hello, Warden. We’re from the Yuncheng Municipal Police. We’re here for the detainee involved in case number 1, who is a suspect in our investigation."
