Chapter 460 The role is blurred
Zhou Yuting's role in Zhou Yubing's kidnapping is relatively vague, although Li Dongmei told Zhou Yuting to provide her with Zhou Yubing's mobile phone number and place of residence.
However, Zhou Yuting did not personally participate in the subsequent kidnapping, and Deng Lao Er remained silent. It was even more impossible for him to involve his sister-in-law, so the interrogation of Zhou Yuting was relatively difficult.
Ji Wenlan decided to cool Zhou Yuting for a while, until it was almost dawn to wake her up from her sleep and take her to the interrogation room.
Zhou Yuting did not remain silent like Deng Laoer. She admitted that she provided Li Dongmei with Zhou Yubing's mobile phone number and whereabouts in Haikou, but completely denied that she had anything to do with Zhou Yubing's kidnapping case.
"If you didn't know Li Dongmei's intention to ask you for your mobile phone number at the beginning, but after Zhou Yubing was kidnapped, wouldn't you have any doubts?" Ji Wenlan asked.
Zhou Yuting was silent for a while and said, "I did doubt it, and I also admitted that the person who spoke to Yubing was Li Dongmei. I can only do so much, because there is no other evidence to prove that Li Dongmei is related to the kidnapping case."
Qi Fei snorted, "You are lying. In fact, when Dai Jialang asked you to listen to the recording for the first time, you denied that you knew who the person who was talking to Zhou Yubing was. Later, it was because Li Dongmei took the initiative to come to the Public Security Bureau to argue, and finally we were determined to be the suspect in the kidnapping case and only admitted it.
At that time, you should have realized that Li Dongmei should be involved in the kidnapping case, but you have been silent. In fact, you know the kidnapping case of Zhou Yubing, and you may even secretly cooperate. Your husband's involvement in the case is evidence."
Zhou Yuting hesitated and said, "I don't understand what you are talking about. Although Yubing is not my real sister, after all, she has more than 30 years of sisterhood. No matter what, I will not help others kidnap her."
Qi Fei snorted and said, "Sistership? Forget it, we are not unaware of your family's situation. In fact, you and Zhou Yubing have been secretly intrigueing for the inheritance rights, but they just didn't break up. What kind of sisterhood is there?
In fact, the fact that Zhou Yubing took away 500 million yuan when she ran away was not made public, and Zhou Jiyao should not have planned to call the police. If it weren't for your intentional disclosure, how could the Deng family know that Zhou Yubing had 500 million yuan in his hands?
Although you did not directly participate in the kidnapping case, as the planner of this case, Deng Laoer must be suspected of being secretly instigated by you."
Zhou Yuting snorted and said, "I am not interested in your analysis and reasoning. If you want to frame me, you can show convincing evidence, otherwise don't waste my time."
He paused and said, "I might as well tell you something first. I hope you can tell Lu Tao that I have been pregnant for four months and have a great reaction at present. I have been protecting my pregnancy recently. If something happens, I don't know if you are qualified to take responsibility."
Ji Wenlan and Qi Fei were both slightly surprised. Obviously, this was a situation that was not mastered. However, if you carefully observe Zhou Yuting's waist, it seemed that she was really fat. Besides, she could not speak nonsense about such things, and it must be true.
"Pregnancy cannot be an excuse to escape the charge. Since you told us, we will certainly pay attention and will not make you too tired, but you must explain your own problems."
Zhou Yuting yawned and said, "I feel very tired now. You deliberately tossed me in the middle of the night. Who knows what you are pressing? I will meet a lawyer tomorrow, and I will naturally seek justice from you."
Ji Wenlan and Qi Fei murmured a few words in a low voice, and then said, "Okay, let's be here for the time being. After you have rest, let's talk slowly. Anyway, we have time."
At 3:30 in the morning, Lu Tao convened a meeting in the office of the temporary investigation team, and Qi Fei and Ji Wenlan gave a detailed report on the interrogation.
Qi Fei finally concluded: "It seems that Boss Deng can basically be confirmed to be convicted of kidnapping, and also committed rape and causing disability.
Although Deng Laoer did not say a word and there was no evidence to prove that he personally participated in the kidnapping, through the recording evidence and confession provided by Li Dongmei, he can basically be determined to be the planner of the kidnapping case.
In this case, only Zhou Yuting's role is still certain, but she obviously provided valuable information to the kidnapping case, which directly led to the success of the kidnapping plan of Boss Deng.
Although she tried her best to defend herself that she was not aware of the situation, Li Dongmei's confession could at least prove that she was guilty of knowing that she did not report it and shelter.
However, there is a situation we have not grasped in advance. Although we have not done any relevant examinations for Zhou Yuting, we believe that she is indeed pregnant at the moment. Perhaps her lawyer may apply for bail tomorrow."
Liao Mingliang nodded and said, "Everyone has worked hard. No matter what, the truth of Zhou Yubing's kidnapping case has finally been clarified. Deng Laoer can't escape legal sanctions even if he sews his mouth.
As for Zhou Yuting, although there is no obvious fact that she personally participated in the kidnapping, as Deng Laoer's fiancée, she could not have been unaware of the kidnapping case, and at least provided Li Dongmei with Zhou Yubing's whereabouts.
At the same time, she should have also revealed to Deng Laoer that Zhou Yubing took away 500 million yuan in cash, which led to the kidnapping case. Therefore, her role in this case should not be underestimated."
Ji Wenlan questioned: "But neither Deng nor Deng Lao Er involved Zhou Yuting in his confession."
Qi Fei said: "But after listening to the recording of the call between Li Dongmei and Zhou Yubing, she knew that Li Dongmei should be related to Zhou Yubing's disappearance, but she concealed this fact, which constitutes the crime of sheltering and the crime of not reporting it.
In addition, the bait that Deng Laoer convinced Li Dongmei to participate in the kidnapping was Zhou Yubing's 500 million yuan, and he clearly mentioned that the news came from Zhou Yuting, so although she did not participate in the kidnapping, it does not mean that she was not involved in the case."
Liao Mingliang waved his hand and said, "What crime is the court's business. Our responsibility is to provide more detailed evidence. We will continue to interrogate the suspect tomorrow, especially Deng Laoer. Be sure to let him speak."
Duan Yifeng suddenly asked, "Is there any clue to the shooting tonight?"
Ji Wenlan shook his head and said, "We asked Boss Deng, but he denied it immediately, and I believe he really didn't know anything about the shooting."
"Is this Deng Laoer trying to kill someone to silence him?" Duan Yifeng asked.
Qi Fei said: "Maybe it was planned by Deng Baoping. To be honest, although no one mentioned Deng Baoping, I don't believe she did not participate in the planning of this kidnapping case. I even suspect that Deng Junji could not know what his children were doing."
Lu Tao, who had not spoken out, said at this time: "Although Zhou Yubing's kidnapping case has been solved, I always feel something is wrong in somewhere."
"What's wrong?" Liao Mingliang asked.
Lu Tao sat there and pondered for a moment and said, "I just felt that since Li Dongmei was released because of insufficient evidence, she should have breathed a sigh of relief for Boss Deng and Boss Deng.
With the Deng family's sensitive eyes and ears, they should be able to understand that the police's investigation into this case has almost reached a dead end, and the possibility of solving the case is not high.
But the question is why they suddenly killed Li Dongmei and silenced him? Think about it, if Li Dongmei had not surrendered tonight, could this case be solved?"
Everyone was silent, and Duan Yifeng finally said in confusion: "I don't quite understand what you mean. Are you saying that the shooting tonight has nothing to do with the Deng family, but someone else?"
Lu Tao shook his head and said, "No, I don't mean that. The purpose of killing Li Dongmei is too obvious. If she dies, we will definitely be related to the kidnapping of Zhou Yubing.
My question is, at the moment when Zhou Yubing's kidnapping case was almost at a standstill, why did the Deng family take the risk of killing Li Dongmei?
Of course, they may specifically choose to kill and silence after the situation has subsided. After all, having an insider is always a threat.
But strangely, they seemed to have sent a very amateur killer to perform such an important task. According to the situation we have learned, there was no one in the street where Li Dongmei was located at that time.
The killer just sat in the car and fired three shots at Li Dongmei's windshield, and then rushed away without any external interference.
So, I always feel something is wrong. Logically, as a killer, he must determine whether Li Dongmei is dead, otherwise how can I explain it when I go back?"
Liao Mingliang said in surprise: "What do you mean is the killer deliberately let Li Dongmei go?"
Lu Tao hesitated and said, "You can't draw this conclusion. Anyway, either this killer is a fool, otherwise it looks like he's scaring Li Dongmei and asking her to surrender to the public security bureau."
Qi Fei interrupted, "Maybe the Deng family scared Li Dongmei and asked her to shut up."
Lu Tao questioned: "Shooting on the street is to scare Li Dongmei? Obviously incredible. Since you take such a big risk, it is better to let Li Dongmei shut up completely."
Duan Yifeng asked in confusion: "I seem to understand what you mean. Do you think someone deliberately wants the case of the Deng family kidnapping Zhou Yubing to the surface?"
Instead of answering Duan Yifeng's question, Lu Tao continued: "If the killer was indeed sent by the Deng family and the purpose was to silence the words, then the news of the failure of the killer's journey would immediately reach the ears of the Deng brothers.
And the Deng brothers will soon know that Li Dongmei has fallen into the hands of the police, but they all stay at home and wait for us to arrest him as if nothing is wrong. Can this stand up to logical reasoning?"
Ji Wenlan interrupted, "It looks like Li Dongmei is a chess piece that someone deliberately ambushed."
Lu Tao shook his head and said, "It should not be a chess piece, but a bomb. It can knock the people from the Deng family to overturn the horse when it is detonated at a critical moment."
Liao Mingliang seemed to have realized Lu Tao’s intentions now and said in surprise: “What? Do you think this is Zhou Jiyao using Zhou Yubing’s case to mess with the Deng family?”
