Kong Xiangzhi's financial situation is not good, he owes debts outside, walks around Tainan, and has been beaten by people for making loud noises.

It is rumored that Kong Suan had revealed in early August that "I am going to make an earth-shattering event, and you will know it by then. I will rely on this to turn around."

Before committing the crime, he deliberately stayed in the north for activities. Unexpectedly, he was stopped by the Zhongli Police Station for drunk driving in Taoyuan.

This is his third time for drunk driving. The first two times he was arrested for drunk driving in Tainan in 2017 and 2020, and was sentenced to a summary judgment for the crime of public danger.

Kong suspected that he disrupted the layout due to drunk driving three times, so he may have acted ahead of time, and committed the school-level shooting 4 days later.

Tainan City Police Chief Fang Yangning said that the shooting appeared to be a well-planned crime.

The police said that Hong Zhengjun and Kong Xiangzhi were accomplices in the past, but whether they conspired in the Xuejia shooting will not be clarified until the two of them arrive at the case.
