Chapter 3: The Pastry Chef's Lies
"Didn't you do an autopsy?" has been following Li Jing for a long time, and many words are now blurted out.
"I don't know. I just heard that the case was closed as suicide in the end, but the aunts who were exercising downstairs were privately talking about his wife's cruelty. The senior sister hesitated for a moment, but finally said all the news she had heard.
"Aunts downstairs! Did they say why they suspected that his wife did it? "I sighed at the aunts' ability to spread gossip, and I was also a little curious about their suspicions.
"This ......" the senior sister looked like she wanted to say something.
"What's wrong?"
"I don't think it's appropriate for me to say that. The aunts said that the uncle found an underground lover and was discovered by his wife, and he made trouble several times, and the group was gone. It seemed that the last time it was too big, he beat his wife, and then his wife went to her mother's house and brought a few people to scare him, and as a result, she beat people to death. The aunts said that the day before the uncle died, they saw his wife leading someone upstairs, and left in a hurry after a while. The next day, the news came out that the uncle had died. Senior sister smiled bitterly.
"Huh? Shouldn't the injuries on the deceased's body be found when calling the police? Didn't the police suspect it? "Supposedly, if he was beaten to death, there is no way to hide the evidence that the deceased was beaten before his death.
"The aunt downstairs said that it was because she bought off the relationship, so the case was closed as suicide."
"Then I don't think we can help much, after all, the case has been closed, and it is estimated that there is nothing left in the evidence, even if the case is overturned, we can't do anything." I thought about it for a while, and after more than a year, the body must have been cremated a long time ago, and it would be difficult to overturn the case again. In addition, the reversal of the case also requires the proposal or consent of the victim's family, like the senior sister, in what capacity should she explain such a thing to the police? I guess it's the end of the road, so I thought of coming to us, but unfortunately, we can't help it.
Senior sister still wanted to open her mouth to say something, and I was about to persuade her to give up, when Li Jing interjected: "Miss Liu Yi, can you tell us the information about the uncle you said." You have been talking to Xiaozhi for so long, and it seems that none of the really useful information has been revealed, how can we verify it? ”
The senior sister was stunned for a moment after hearing this, glanced at Li Jing with wide eyes, and said with an embarrassed face: "Well, I don't know that much about uncles. I only know my uncle's name until now, and it seems that he is in the import and export business, but the uncle has never told me what he does. Age is something I once glimpsed from his ID card. Uncle didn't like it very much, and I knew too many things about him. ”
After learning the uncle's name and age, and confirming each other's contact information, the senior sister and I chatted a few words before leaving and left first, and repeatedly told us that the investigation must be carried out quietly, and never let the uncle's wife know, otherwise the matter will be very embarrassing in the end. I nodded in agreement, and Li Jing remained silent after that question, just sitting there and listening to our small talk. When the senior sister was about to leave, she glanced at Li Jing and whispered "Please" before getting up and leaving the café.
Senior sister didn't let me send her, Li Jing looked out the window, until she saw senior sister get into a taxi, then turned her head and said to me, "Your senior sister has been lying." ”
Li Jing's words couldn't help but scare me, today, the experience that senior sister said is enough to subvert my three views and let me digest it for a while. Li Jing now says that she is lying, and the two of them are really confusing me.
Li Jing may have sensed that he was scaring me, and hurriedly explained: "What I said is not that he is lying about the whole thing, but that she is covering up some things that she doesn't want us to know." When a person is lying, there will be some unconscious behavior, such as blinking, and the person does not know that he is blinking, because the action of blinking is unconscious body language, and this unconsciousness just shows that he is lying. Your senior sister will unconsciously cross her fingers when talking to us, and her eyes will drift to other places, indicating that she does not want to reveal her inner thoughts. And when answering your questions alone, although there will be hesitation or cross-fingered body language, her eyes are suitable for what you have communicated, that is, what she wants you to know. And did you notice that when I said 'useful information' and 'check', her pupils dilated, indicating that she was a little shocked and scared that we found out that she was hiding something. Both of these actions were made by her unconsciously. She can use words and expressions to hide what he doesn't want us to know, but unconscious physical actions expose her lying. ”
Hearing this, I really have to admire Li Jing's excellent observation.
"You see, your eyes and mouth are a little wider now than they were just now. It shows that you are shocked by what I just said, and your unconscious body language should indicate that you are quite adoring me now. ”
After listening to Li Jing, I quickly sorted out my expression: "Who said that, don't be narcissistic." I was just shocked why Senpai lied to me. ”
"That's why I just took it upon herself to ask you about it. She asked us to find out not only the truth about her boyfriend's death, but in short, to know why she was so obsessed with her boyfriend's death, we had to first see what happened between her and her boyfriend. Li Jing finished his last sip of tea.
"So what do we do next? The senior sister refused to give us 'useful information'. ”
"Isn't there a name, age, and approximate time of death, if it's a fact, it should be recorded. The most basic thing is that you can also check the alarm record at that time, and then follow the check. Alas, why do I have so many troubles with you every time? Li Jing complained and got up to put on his coat.
"I should say this sentence, it's actually you who involve me in inexplicable things every time!" I tidied up my coat.
At dinner, I saw my cousin, who had been a forensic doctor for the first time, with neat hair and rimless glasses, looking polite.
"Hello, Xiaozhi, I am Li Jing's cousin Li Dongye, working in the forensic department. I often hear Li Jing and Team Xiao mention you. Li Dongye introduced himself on the other side.
"Mention me often? There shouldn't be anything good to say, right? I glanced at Li Jing, who coughed awkwardly and turned his head to call the waiter to order.
Li Dongye laughed dryly a few times and did not answer.
When the meal was almost finished, Li Jing thought that Dong Ye had told us why we came to him.
"The case from a year ago? It should be found in the archive, and you can ask Shi Hao to check it for you in the database. However, if the case is closed as a suicide, it is estimated that the results of the forensic examination may not be satisfactory to you. Dong Ye reminded us.
"It doesn't matter, if Shi Hao finds the information, I'll ask him to send you a copy and help me see if there is anything unreasonable on the number."
Dong Ye nodded, but still reminded us that the result may still disappoint us: "Don't be too optimistic. If the relationship is bought off, the forensic report may be made watertight. ”
