Chapter 75

New book in soft pink seeks support, collection, and recommendations! This week, I gave a panty push, but the effect wasn't great, and it didn't help much with collections and recommendations. So, it all depends on everyone. I sincerely ask everyone to give a few more recommendations, so I have a chance to show up on the charts. I bow in gratitude!

"Could it really be for the purpose of murder for gain? Because the robbery didn't succeed, it escalated into a crime?"

Wei Zhengming looked at the small piece of cloth, then raised his head and turned his gaze to Old Xie. At this moment, Old Xie scratched his head, which was already slightly bald, making it look even more prominent. He spoke hesitantly.

"Captain, this... isn't there already a name on it? Wang Yijian, I caught him before when I was at the Qianshan Branch. He's a tough nut to crack. He dropped out of junior high school at the age of fifteen and started hanging around on the streets. He began with petty theft, then joined a gang and got into brawls, and later ended up in juvenile detention and prison. He's a seasoned criminal. The reason he's called Wang Yijian is because he always carries a knife with him, so his nickname is Wang Yijian. Although he's only in his twenties, I've long seen that this guy is beyond saving. He'll probably get shot before he's thirty. It seems this time..."

Old Xie provided some information about Wang Yijian, but although he didn't say the last two sentences, his thoughts were clear. In his view, this case was likely done by Wang Yijian.

When Old Xie said this, Zhang Lu couldn't help but slap his thigh.

"Ah! If I had known this case would be so easy to solve, I wouldn't have let Wang Liming see these pieces of evidence so easily. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had such a huge stroke of luck."

Zhang Lu looked very frustrated. He couldn't believe that the murderer had worn such an easily identifiable piece of clothing, which made it a piece of cake for Wang Liming to solve the case.

After all, the key evidence that led to solving the case was something he had painstakingly retrieved from the bottom of the well.

"Hey! You can't say that. After all, we're all part of the same police force. If Captain Wang's team solves the case, it's not a bad thing for us. At least we won't be pressured to solve it within a few days."

Wei Zhengming, not wanting to see his team in such a state, quickly tried to comfort them, but the effect wasn't particularly good.

"Hmph! Captain, you're too generous. They solved the case using the evidence we found, and they got all the credit. Think about the cases we handled before; they all said they would help, but everyone knows they just came to take credit. They don't have the brains to solve cases and even try to trip us up. This is not what teammates should do."

Old Xie loudly complained, and several team members echoed his sentiment, clearly showing their dissatisfaction with Team One for a long time.

Wei Zhengming didn't know what to say to comfort the team. This case, solved by Team One using the evidence they found, was indeed quite frustrating.

"I think this case isn't necessarily as Captain Wang said. Whether Wang Yijian is the murderer is still uncertain."

Li Xiangdong held the black windbreaker, examining it for a while before suddenly speaking. His words immediately silenced everyone around him.

Several team members looked at him as if he were a fool. You're just a new recruit, what do you know?

Even An Jiaoning, standing nearby, nudged him, signaling him not to speak rashly.

But Wei Zhengming didn't mind and quickly came to his side.

"What is it, Xiao Li? What did you notice? What are your thoughts?"

Li Xiangdong didn't hide his thoughts and pointed to the small piece of cloth.

"Captain, what does this piece of cloth remind you of?"

"Speak up, what are you stalling for?" Wei Zhengming glared, with a hint of a scolding tone, and Li Xiangdong chuckled.

"Captain Wang said he has a suspect named Wang Yijian, who is likely the murderer. However, I don't think so. This small piece of cloth, which he considers important evidence, I don't think is necessarily so. Think about it, the murderer planned the crime meticulously, entering the house from the back yard, and even wore gloves to avoid leaving fingerprints. How could he wear a piece of clothing with his name embroidered inside? To me, this piece of cloth looks more like a tag left by a dry cleaner to facilitate billing."

Li Xiangdong's words made the eyes of the Second Team members light up. Indeed, the small piece of cloth did look like a tag left by a dry cleaner.

This way, it was possible that Wang Liming might have arrested the wrong person.

"Haha, I knew the heavens have eyes. How could a scoundrel like Wang Liming succeed? He wanted to show off in front of us, but now he's made such a big blunder. How will he explain it? Deputy Chief Lei even went to commend him. I wonder how he will be commended this time."

Zhang Lu couldn't help but gloat, and everyone present laughed along. Indeed, Wang Liming was detested by everyone, so his downfall was a source of joy.

"The case isn't settled yet. It could still be Wang Yijian."

Wei Zhengming didn't rush to make a judgment, but Li Xiangdong was firm in his response.

"It's impossible. As Wang Liming said, his suspect, Wang Yijian, is a robber with a strong sense of economic crime, who likes to rob houses. If he had come to rob Lu Hailong, wouldn't he have turned the house upside down? But there was a hidden compartment in Lu Hailong's bedroom with 30,000 yuan, and a safe in the upstairs study with hundreds of thousands of yuan, and none of this money was taken. This doesn't match the behavior of a house robber. Moreover, I just asked about Wang Yijian's previous modus operandi, which was simple and brutal, usually breaking in by force. But this time, the perpetrator entered from the back yard. I don't think Wang Yijian has such high intelligence, and even if he did, he wouldn't have the patience."

Li Xiangdong's analysis, once spoken, earned him a solid pat on the back from Old Xie.

"Good job! I underestimated you. I thought you were just a rookie, but you're actually a seasoned eagle! Your analysis is very convincing, even I'm convinced."

Wei Zhengming also laughed, not saying much more. At this moment, the other members of the Second Team looked at Li Xiangdong differently, no longer seeing him as a new recruit.

An Jiaoning's gaze on Li Xiangdong was even more complex, with a hint of admiration.
