24.Chapter 24: The Motive for the Killing

"Let's talk about it!" Hong Kaiyuan simply leaned down on the stone beside him, took out a cigarette, threw one to me, and then lit it himself. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

I didn't answer immediately, I took the cigarette, lit it, took a deep breath, and then said slowly: "If your judgment is correct, this person lying here must have been plotted by his companion!"

"Why do you say that?" Wen Jing, who had been silent, spoke. Maybe she's slowly getting used to her current environment.

"People near this cave usually don't come in, judging from what this person is wearing, he is definitely not our local, and the people on our side are not in good economic conditions, and no one will buy this kind of special clothing. And, as far as I know, there has never been a missing person in our neighborhood. I took another sharp breath and continued, "Two outsiders would never come here for no reason, they definitely came here for some purpose, maybe they came here in search of some kind of treasure or something special!"

"Why are you so sure?" Hong Kaiyuan was very unimpressed.

"Then I ask you, what are we doing here?" I asked rhetorically.

"Looking for Qin Hu, what's the matter, is there a problem?" Hong Kaiyuan didn't feel the slightest intention of me asking him, and was still smoking to himself.

"Then what is Qin Hu here for?"

"Isn't it just for the origin of the broken stone in your hand!"

"Isn't that the end of it!" I sneered and looked at Hong Kaiyuan.

I guess it was my malicious expression that woke him up. He almost jumped: "You mean to say that these two people are here for this too?"

"Since strange things have happened here, and so many people know about it, it's not a normal thing to have a few people here. I said frankly.

"Well, at least, we already know several groups of people, Qin Hu, Little Japan who didn't die cleanly, Dong Shang back then, and people from your family!" Wen Jing looked into my eyes, as if she wanted to find an answer from my eyes.

Her eyes were as bright as water, very charming, I didn't dare to answer her gaze, and quickly lowered my head, but I didn't think nonsense, so I answered: "Yes, the secret in this is currently only known by the four groups, just like you said." “

"But obviously, Qin Hu can rule it out, because he only learned about it recently. And my family can also rule it out, because there is no need to do it!"

"According to what you say, these two people must be the remaining two groups!" Hong Kaiyuan took the words, and his brows furrowed: "Is it the descendants of Little Japan and that Dong Shu?"

"As things stand, this should be accurate. Wen Jing also nodded.

I didn't dwell on it anymore, and I didn't answer the conversation, but I thought about something else.

According to Hong Kaiyuan's speculation, the corpse lying here now is one of the two people who entered the cave a few years ago, where did the other go? When I entered the cave, I only saw two rows of footprints coming in, and I didn't see any footprints going out.

Could it be that the other of the two men went out through another exit?

Thinking of this, I looked at the corpses on the ground again, and said to Hong Kaiyuan: "Fatty, can you see his wounds?"

"I didn't pay attention to this!" he crouched down.

The reason why I asked him was because I didn't want to touch the corpse, not because I was afraid, but because I always felt a little sick to my stomach when I saw these things.

Soon, Hong Kaiyuan had results.

"Here!" he turned the body over and showed me his fingers, "Oh, here it is!"

I used my flashlight to shine a fingerlight at the place he was pointing, and I could see it clearly.

The wound was on the left side of the deceased's ribs, not yet to the waist, and I don't know much about medicine, so I can't see the first rib. The reason why the location can be seen clearly is because the clothes around the wound were once soaked in blood, and they are lumpy and black, which is clearly different from other positions.

The clothing from the wound down to the feet is lumpy. Although the body was air-dried, it was not distorted, and it seems that the person was not very painful before he died, and it can be inferred that the person probably died after excessive blood loss.

"What do you think caused this wound?" I sighed.

"Look at the shape of the wound, it is narrow and flat, it should be a sharp blade like a dagger!" he said and tore the deceased's clothes, revealing his waist and abdomen. Perhaps because of the environment in the cave, the corpse's waist and abdomen were not broken, but only collapsed.

"You see, the wound is between those two ribs near the heart. Hong Kaiyuan said to me, "This position will not kill you with a single knife, nor will it hurt your heart, not even your liver! The perpetrator is either a veteran or a layman who doesn't know anything, or maybe it was caused by mistake." ”

I stood by and didn't say no. Raised the cigarette in his hand, took a puff first, and then raised his hand to signal Hong Kaiyuan to continue.

"I only know one thing, if a person is stabbed here, he will not die immediately, he will delay for a long time, and if he is not treated halfway, he will eventually die due to excessive blood loss!"

"Judging from the wounds, this is not like the work of a person who does not know how to assassinate, but it is very accurate, fast and ruthless!" Hong Kaiyuan continued.

"Why did the murderer do this, what was his motive?" Wen Jing interjected.

"There's only one possibility!" I smiled as I smiled.

The two of them looked at me in unison, confused.

"That's because the murderer wanted something from the deceased!" I said lightly, still leaving the cigarette still on the ground, stepping on it with my foot. "The deceased probably had something that the murderer wanted, but he couldn't get it by other means, so the murderer could only keep the person's life first, and then find it by coercion or stalking!"

"You mean, these two people didn't go all the way?" Hong Kaiyuan scratched his scalp, still a little puzzled.

"It's hard to say now, maybe they came together, maybe the murderer came after him. I pondered for a moment and continued, "But one thing is for sure, these two have absolutely the same purpose!"

With that, I described my speculation and the two of them in general.

These two people, because they got some information and knew that what they wanted was hidden in this cave, so they came here. Due to different circumstances, it is likely that the deceased found what he was looking for, but the murderer did not. Regardless of whether the two are in a gang or not, what the deceased gets will never let the murderer get. Otherwise, the murderer would not have committed this murder.

Because the murderer was not able to get what he wanted, and if he could not get it by normal means, he would probably find an opportunity to murder the deceased.

Judging from the location where the deceased hid in this place after being injured, it was obvious to him that the murderer not only wanted to kill him, but also wanted to get what he had in his hands. So he kept hiding behind the rock. The reason why he was lying in this position was because it was a good place to monitor the entrance to this cave hall, and the knife he was holding was mainly for self-defense.

Obviously, the murderer's plan is to wait for the deceased to take him to find something, or he feels that even if the deceased is injured, he will not have much chance of winning, so the murderer's strategy is to wait!

And there was not even a piece of extra paper on his body at the scene except for the knife left by the deceased on the stone! That means that the murderer came here after the deceased fell unconscious or lost his ability to resist, and took all the deceased's belongings! The murderer did this for two reasons: first, he wanted to find what he wanted or clues from the deceased's belongings, and second, the murderer probably didn't want people to know the identity of the deceased! And the words left on the stone were probably related to that thing, and they were definitely engraved after the murderer left!

As for whether the murderer got that thing or not, it is unknown.

"Are you telling the truth?" Wen Jing felt that my reasoning was a little incredible, and her face was puzzled.

"Lao Qi, it's really a tyrannical thing that you didn't do criminal investigation work!" Hong Kaiyuan sighed, wiped out the cigarette in his hand on the stone, and put it into an empty cigarette case he carried with him.

"But I still can't understand the words carved in the stone!" I said with a wry smile.

"Then I'll have to strip this guy naked and take a closer look!" Hong Kaiyuan smiled.

"Stinky fat man, you are disrespectful to the dead!" Wen Jing was anxious.

"If I can find the murderer for him in this way, even if it is a little disrespectful, I don't think he will blame me!" Hong Kaiyuan said as he began to undress the deceased.

I couldn't stand this scene anymore, so I had to step aside and start smoking again.

"Damn, this murderer is not ordinarily simple, this person really doesn't even have a little superfluous thing left on him!" Hong Kaiyuan finally stopped after a long time, and shouted at me: "Lao Qi, your eyes are poisonous, come and see what you can find, Lao Tzu has done his best!"

Hearing this, I had no choice but to walk over, and when I looked, I saw that the corpse had been tossed by Hong Kaiyuan, and I secretly said in my heart: Sin!

I squatted down next to the corpse, looked at the deceased's hair very carefully, and asked Hong Kaiyuan to look through the hair again, but the result was still very disheartening, and I found nothing at all.

Hong Kaiyuan was a little irritated when he saw that he still didn't find out, and scolded: "No matter what happened to this Laoshi, we didn't come in to solve the case!"

I ignored him, endured the discomfort in my stomach, and carefully lifted one of the deceased's left hands. The arm had dried up to a layer of skin that stuck directly to the bone, and the black-brown ghost-clawed hand was very uncomfortable for me.

My hands have long since dried up, and with the naked eye alone, and in this environment where I can only rely on artificial light sources, I really can't see anything unusual from the palms and backs of my hands.

So, I focused all my attention on the deceased's fingers! At this time, due to my carelessness, I actually touched off one of the deceased's fingernails, and all of a sudden, I saw something strange under the nail cover: there seemed to be a handful of hairs under the nail cover!!
