The incident occurred 30 years ago in Shanghai's Huangpu District, on August 1, 1991, the police received a report that a 67-year-old man had been killed in a house in a lane. At that time, the victim was lying on the edge of the bed and was stabbed several times in the body. Soon the police confirmed that the victim was chen gui, a local resident, who divorced his wife in the early years because of a broken relationship, and then lived alone. The investigation soon found that the old man lived only 15 square meters, the murder weapon was a knife in the kitchen sink, it seems that the murderer should be the perpetrator of the crime, the police speculated that the murderer himself was not rushing to kill.
After further investigation, the police found that there were slight traces of fighting at the scene, the cabinet drawers in the room had a large number of traces of turning, and the belongings inside were missing. Could it be that the theft was broken in the middle of the theft, so the murder was committed? Because it was a slight fight, the police guessed that the murderer should be a young man, so it was possible to subdue the old man without a very fierce fight. It is understood that Chen Gui has no legitimate occupation, usually in the alley mouth stalls to sell cigarettes, he sold all the "foreign smoke" at hand is very generous, at the scene the police also found scattered everywhere foreign smoke.
At this time, the police also learned from a neighbor that Chen Gui was wearing a gold ring on his hand. But after the incident, the police found that the gold ring was missing. The police suspect that the murderer is very familiar with Chen Gui's residence, because the lane house where he lives is strange, and the arrangement between the houses is like a labyrinth, and people who are not very familiar with him cannot accurately find the place. The police found that the doors and windows of Chen Gui's home had not been pried, and the murderer was likely to know Chen Gui and was a peaceful room. An investigation of Chen Gui's network and neighbors found that no suspicious person had appeared.
In addition to the complex structure of the house where Chen Gui lives, the sound insulation is also particularly poor, and even the neighbors can hear it loudly. If Chen Gui had shouted for help at that time, the neighbors would definitely have heard it. Subsequently, the police speculated that the murderer was likely to have committed the murder around 7-9 pm, because the living conditions of everyone were limited at that time, and in August, everyone would go downstairs to cool off after dinner, even if there was any noise, they could not hear it downstairs. As a result, the forensic doctor confirmed that Chen Gui did die around 7-9 o'clock the night before. The police extracted a fingerprint from the drawer handle of Chen Gui's house, but it was not certain who it was.
The police then turned the suspect to the customer who bought the "foreign tobacco", Chen Gui sold the foreign tobacco without permission, he was selling smuggled cigarettes to make a living, so his customers would only be people nearby. The police identified a snack street and were ordered to rectify it because of the disturbance. The restaurants are closed, and the police speculate that it will be the small workers who work because they have no income, so they are desperate to take risks? During the investigation, a restaurant owner provided important clues. There was a small worker named Xu Shihong in their family, who settled his salary in advance when he learned that the police were investigating. Police compared Xu Shihong's fingerprints and found that they were consistent with the fingerprints of the drawer handle.
When the police came to his hometown, his sister said that her brother had come home the other day and given her a gold ring, and then he said that he had gone to the south to work and left his hometown. After comparison, the police found that the gold ring was the one that Chen Gui had lost, and the murderer confirmed that it was Xu Shihong, but who knew that his escape was 30 years. In the past 30 years, he has evaporated like a human being, but the police dare not slacken off and have been tracking him with scientific and technological means. In May 2021, the system finally jumped out of a warning, a man named Chen Binjun, and Xu Shihong's appearance is highly similar, the investigation shows that the social relations between the two people also have many overlaps, and the arrest began immediately.
In a chess and card room in Poyang County, Jiangxi Province, the police arrested him, and he immediately admitted his identity, it was Xu Shihong, who had absconded for many years. He said that he had no income because of the rectification of the store, he saw that Chen Gui was very rich in selling cigarettes, so he went to the door to ask about the purchase channel, who knew that Chen Gui was in a hurry at that time, the two evolved from a verbal quarrel to a murderer, and afterwards he took away all the valuable things in the house. After 30 years of absconding, he did not feel at ease for a day, even if his wife was pregnant, he did not dare to get a license to marry. But then he learned that his wife's eldest brother, who had an intellectual disability due to fever in his childhood, rarely went out, so he thought of using the identity of his brother-in-law. He concealed his wife's family imposter to apply for a new IDENTITY card, but also asked his father-in-law's uncle to help intercede, although his father-in-law was very angry after learning about it, but because his uncle suppressed the identity of the elder, he finally could not choose it, so Xu Shihong hid for 30 years, and now the only thing waiting for him is the trial of the law.
