Police received a report on February 21 afternoon regarding two old people living at Su Yuan Xin Cun were murdered in their house.  The police found that both doors and windows of the crime scene had no sign of broke in.  The house was quite tidy and the murderer brought his own murder tool but changed his slipper before he went into the house.  Both Guo, 73-year-old man, and Zhang, 68-year-old woman were retired.  They normally stayed at home and they had a daughter and two sons.  Both sons were staying at Shanghai for a long time.

Police suspected that the murderer was someone close to the victims, so they summoned the victims’ daughter, Guo Fang and questioned her.  She tried to forge the crime scene initially, thinking of framing her boyfriend for doing everything.  After further investigation, Guo Fang only admitted it was committed by her.  She said that she had not got a job after divorce for two years.  She knew a guy who was two years younger than her and they stayed together.  She tried to ask her parents for money due to financial problems but was rejected, so she came up with the thought of killing her parents to inherit their property.  Guo Fang then bought a fruit knife from supermarket and then sleeping pills from the pharmacy.  When she reached to her parents’ house, she mixed the drugs into her parents’ rice.  After her parents became unconscious, she stabbed them with the knife she bought until they are dead.
