Chapter 469: Conviction

The filmmaker said he did not know if the video would help the police and hoped that they would solve the case as soon as possible. The police confirmed that the video was taken on the night of the murder. Judging from the time, Hu Tao should have appeared on the screen after Bai He’s death.
In addition, what puzzled the police was that the underground parking lot Hu Tao went to was also the crime scene, which was the event location of Bai He’s death after Hu Min pushed her down.
How could there be such a coincidence?
Hu Min had just killed Bai He when Hu Tao arrived at the crime scene. Moreover, according to Hu Tao, he had been resting at home that night. Even if Hu Tao appeared at the crime scene by chance, why did he lie?
The police realized that there was a problem, so the police in charge of this case overturned all the previous conclusions and began to rethink all the clues. At the same time, they sent more police officers to the vicinity of the crime scene to investigate.
After two days of detailed investigation, various abnormal clues gradually pointed to a seemingly unbelievable result: On the night of the crime, the person who killed Bai He was most likely not the drunk Hu Min, but Hu Tao, who entered the crime scene later.
After discovering that it was very likely that Hu Tao had killed Bai He, another question arose: Why did Hu Tao kill Bai He? What motive did he have?
Under the police’s high-pressure interrogation, Hu Tao finally confessed that he killed Bai He because the child in Bai He’s stomach was not his. Moreover, after Hu Min pushed Bai He down that night, the child in Bai He’s stomach miscarried.
When he saw Bai He, Bai He was very angry. She scolded Hu Tao for being a coward and said that he was an incompetent man. No wonder his wife divorced him. No wonder his daughter looked down on him.
Bai He’s words deeply agitated Hu Tao. His mind went blank as he rushed towards Bai He angrily. By the time Hu Tao reacted, Bai He had already died in front of him.
The police did not expect the truth to be like this. However, there was another problem that was difficult to explain.
If Bai He was killed by Hu Tao, then the body should have been processed by Hu Tao. Why didn’t Hu Min deny that she was the one who processed the body when the police questioned her? Of course, this question was not completely inexplicable. It was normal for people who were drunk to be unconscious.
The police officer looked at Hu Tao and asked, “Since you killed her, why didn’t you confess when the police took your daughter away?”
Hu Tao smiled bitterly, then became a little angry. “She’s been going against me every day for the past few years. I don’t want such a daughter anymore. I’m almost 50 years old this year. Perhaps the older 1 get, the more nostalgic I feel for this world. At that moment, 1 think I should just let her go to jail. Anyway, a vermin like her is useless in society.”
Hearing Hu Tao’s words, the police officers looked at each other with complicated expressions. As a father, Hu Tao’s words were indeed a little cruel, but it was not impossible to understand.
Through interviews and investigations, the police had already understood that Hu Tao and Hu Min’s relationship was indeed not good at all over the years. It could even be said that they were similar to enemies.
The truth seemed to be clear, but Ma Guang, the police officer in charge of this case, felt that something was wrong.
However, after confirming that the murderer was Hu Tao, all the evidence chains were closed. Some of the previously unexplainable doubts could also be explained clearly, and there was no problem with the murderer’s own confession.
On the day Hu Tao was convicted in court, the netizens on the Internet were also very concerned about this case.
After knowing the reversal of the case, the netizens were very emotional. Some reprimanded Hu Tao for not being worthy of being a father and actually wanted his daughter to take the blame. Others said that Hu Min was too willful. Her bad family relationship was the fuse for this crime.
When she heard that the court sentenced Hu Tao to life imprisonment, Hu Min, who had been in a daze, suddenly looked at Hu Tao. Then, tears fell from the corners of her eyes, and her expression was complicated and painful.
When Ma Guang saw Hu Min’s expression, he felt that something was wrong. Ma Guang felt that Hu Min’s reaction implied that there might be more to the case. After Hu Tao was taken away, the netizens quickly stopped paying attention to this case, but Ma Guang could not let go of this case in his heart..
