Chapter 145: Headless Guard
After two breaths, the two looked at the mouth of the 12th Hutong at the same time, and the screams and shouts came from the adjacent 11th Hutong!
When he arrived at the Eleventh Hutong, Zhan Yan helped a man in his prime who was so frightened that he retreated again and again, and Yin Qigang stared at the bloody scene in front of him and was stunned. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
A man stood in front of a house, standing upright like a doorman.
If it were just that, it wouldn't be surprising, except that the man was leaning against the courtyard wall by the door of his house, his legs erect, his hands hanging down, and his torso, but he had no head!
The corpse of a decapitated man stood eerily upright against the edge of his home, a sight that made people feel chills all over their bodies.
The middle-aged man is the owner of this house, named Yu Guangnian, who had just returned home from drinking a small wine with a group of friends, but unexpectedly saw such a bloody and brutal scene in front of his house.
Yu Guangnian's screams and shouts not only succeeded in attracting Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen in the adjacent 12 Hutongs, but also shocked the other people in the 11 Hutongs to go out to check.
When they saw the headless male corpse in front of Yu Guangnian's house, there was another scream of each other, among which Yu Guangnian's wife Yu was the most.
Yu and Yu Guangnian have no children under their knees, often when Yu Guangnian is out of the house, Yu goes to bed early and sleeps peacefully, and also hears Yu Guangnian's screams in his sleep, Yu Fang hurriedly got up and opened the door, but as soon as he went out, he witnessed the headless male corpse on the side of the door.
After screaming, Yu was directly frightened and fainted.
Yu Guangnian saw his wife faint, he was so frightened that his legs were weak, he still gave up Zhanyan's support, trembled his legs and walked to the door of his house, and it took the boss's strength to help Yu up, half hugging and half mopping away from the headless male corpse on the side of the door.
Seeing this, Yin Seventeen couldn't help but secretly praise Yu Guangnian, even if he was afraid, he still cared about his wife so much, no matter how he counted it, he could be regarded as a good husband.
After Yu Guangnian carried Yu Shi home to the middle bedroom, he walked to the door of the house again, and saw Zhan Yan standing in front of the headless male corpse and looking at the corpse carefully, dressed in an official robe, and then looked at Yin Seventeen on Zhan Yan's side, then looked back at Zhan Yan and asked respectfully:
"Is the poor master a head catcher?"
Zhan Yan didn't expect Yu Guangnian to recognize him, nodded one by one, pointed to the clothes on the headless man's corpse and asked:
"Do you recognize this man?"
Yu Guangnian saw that Zhan Yan was really a famous Zhan Da head catcher in Hongsha County, and his already weak legs immediately knelt down and begged:
"I don't recognize it! Zhan Catcher has to be the master of the small people! β
Zhan Yan frowned when he heard this, and Yin Seventeen asked directly:
"Didn't you say you didn't know this man? What else do you do? β
Yu Guangnian said with a crying voice: "This person Xiaomin really doesn't recognize it!" But the murderer cut off the person's head and placed it in front of Xiaomin's house, isn't this obviously threatening Xiaomin? The murderer will definitely come back to take Xiaomin's life and cut off Xiaomin's head like this headless corpse! β
Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen glanced at each other, although Yu Guangnian may have overreacted a little, but what he said was not completely unreasonable.
At least the murderer placed the headless male corpse next to the door of Yu Guangnian's house, what should be the meaning or purpose of it.
Ye Ziluo, who couldn't wait for Zhanyan and Yin Seventeen to return home for a long time, couldn't wait for him, and even Hua Zilai couldn't stop him with all his strength, so after Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen found the headless male corpse in Twelve Hutong for about half an hour, Ye Ziluo and Hua Zilai also rushed to the scene of the crime.
As soon as Hua Zilai arrived at the scene of the crime, he only looked at the headless male corpse twice, and was ordered by Zhan Yan to go to the yamen to report the case, and immediately asked Shi Yanzuo to come over.
As soon as Ye Ziluo arrived at the scene of the crime, he walked to Yin Seventeen's side, and when he saw the headless male corpse on the side of Yu Guangnian's house, he also deliberately looked at Yin Seventeen, but saw that she was calm and calm, and her courage was no worse than him!
Ye Ziluo couldn't help but have another layer of understanding for Yin Seventeen, the young lady of the Yin family.
But in fact, the leaf fall is an overestimation of Yin Seventeen.
When Yin Seventeen and Zhan Yan first arrived at the scene of the crime, Zhan Yan held on to Yu Guangnian, who was the first to find the headless male corpse, Yu Guangnian was so frightened that he couldn't help himself, and Yin Seventeen was also so shocked at the beginning that he took two steps backwards, and Fang Jiang was stunned by the bloody and terrifying scene in front of him.
Xu Wei had already seen the scene of severed hands and feet and other stumps before, and Yin Seventeen's pair of headless male corpses covered in blood were actually fine, not as scared as Yu Guangnian, nor screaming like your Yu clan or your neighbors.
After Shi Yanzuo was taken to Yu Guangnian's house in Hutong 11 of Changsheng Street from his home, Zhan Yan, Yin Seventeen, and Hua Zilai retreated to the side to talk about the case, and Ye Ziluo also retreated a few steps like the three of them, without disturbing Shi Yanzuo's autopsy.
Hua Zilai said in a slurped voice: "I don't know who let the murderer kill so cruelly, and even the head is missing!" β
After taking the officials to the scene of the crime, Hua Zilai not only asked the officials to evacuate the onlookers, but also asked the officials to turn over the entire eleven alleys, especially near Yu Guangnian's house, but they couldn't find the head of the headless male corpse.
Yin Seventeen said: "The murderer cut off the head of the deceased, in addition to the possibility that he wanted to cover up the identity of the deceased, could there be any other reason?" β
After Yin Seventeen finished asking, he subconsciously looked at Zhan Yan, even the flowers were the same, and Ye Ziluo couldn't help but look at Zhan Yan when he saw this.
Zhan Yan's gaze kept falling on the headless male corpse, and he realized that the three lines of sight were all focused on him:
"There should be, Seventeen, have you noticed that the deceased is obviously dead, but he can still stand so upright on the side of Yu Guangnian's door, just like ...... Guard! β
Yin Seventeen, Hua Zilai, and Ye Ziluo looked at the headless male corpse again at the same time, and the scene was indeed just like what Zhan Yan said, the headless male corpse was like the guard of the high-door family, guarding the door of Yu Guangnian's house.
Yin Seventeen said: "When I looked at it up close just now, I noticed that there was something wrong with the deceased's body, so I touched it lightly, and then found that the deceased's whole body was stiff, as if it was frozen without any temperature. β
Hua Zilai came late, and went back to the yamen to report the case, and then arranged for the yamen to search the vicinity of the crime scene, so he was the only one among the three who didn't find anything, and of course Ye Ziluo was the same.
But Ye Ziluo is not a person in the yamen, and if he didn't find it, he didn't find it, and it's nothing.
But Hua Zilai is different, he is the fast catcher of the Yamen head catcher's room, and even Yin Seventeen, who is only a fast hand, has been discovered, and this discovery seems to be quite important, and he is a little unwilling in his heart.
So after listening to Yin Seventeen's words, Hua Zilai took a few steps forward and squatted beside Shi Qizuo.
After the headless male corpse was initially examined by Shi Qizuo, he asked the two yamen to help gently lay down the headless male corpse before continuing the examination.
As soon as Hua Zilai squatted down, he looked east and west like Shi Chengzuo, the only difference was that Shi Yanzuo also used his hands to examine the corpse, while he only moved his eyes and couldn't move at all.
After Shi Qizuo finished the autopsy, he walked up to Zhan Yan and said:
"The deceased was killed about half an hour ago, and his head was cut off with a knife, and the incision was smooth, and the blood on the deceased's body should be the deceased's own blood, and as for why the deceased was able to die standing up, I think the reason is that the deceased ate ice stiffness before his death, so that his whole body was stiff as iron and cold as frost after death, which is the result of a preliminary examination.
As for the determination of the ice stiffness flower and whether there are any other discoveries, we will have to go back to the yamen for further autopsy, and then give you the answer. β
After Shi Qizuo finished talking about the preliminary autopsy results, he asked the official to carry the headless man's body back to the yamen, and he also went back.
The condition of the clothes on the headless man's corpse, long before Shi Yanzuo and the servants arrived at the scene of the crime, Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen did a detailed search, but they did not find anything that could prove the identity of the deceased.
Nowadays, the most important thing is to find out the identity of the deceased, in addition to finding the head of the deceased.
Hua Zilai asked, "Ice Zombie Flower?" What is Frozen Zombie Flower? Is it poison? β
Yin XVII explained: "It is a herb, not a poison, and its medicinal effect is similar to that of Mandra, so the ice zombie flower is occasionally used by healers to relieve pain and anesthesia for patients. β
Zhan Yan grabbed the two words in Yin's seventeenth words: "Occasionally? β
Yin Seventeen nodded and said: "Yes, the medicinal effect of the Ice Zombie Flower is extremely strong, and it is more domineering than Mandala, if the doctor's medical skills are not refined, even if it is only a small amount, it is enough to be self-defeating and cost people's lives, so the Ice Zombie Flower is not common, at least in the major pharmacies, at least nine out of ten do not sell this herb."
Judging from this clue, the murderer must have the ice zombie flower in his hand, if he didn't buy it from the pharmacy, or he planted it himself, so in addition to checking the major pharmacies in the county, we also have to carefully investigate where there is a place to plant the herb ice zombie flower outside the county.
As for the autopsy results that Shi Yanzuo just said, the murderer killed the deceased with a single knife, which shows that ...... If the murderer is not a master of using a knife, he is a butcher who usually works with a knife! β
Because Granny Tao is a doctor, Yin Seventeen has also served herbs for five years, and Ice Zombie Flower is one of them, but because the medicinal properties of Ice Zombie Flower are extremely strong and domineering, and the practicality is not high, she has only served twice.
But these two times are enough to make Yin Seventeen remember this herb.
When she encountered the deceased's stiffness and coldness, Yin Seventeen had flashed the herb Ice Zombie Flower in her mind, but at that time, she thought that Ice Zombie Flower was extremely rare, or maybe there was a medicine next to it that was the same as Ice Zombie Flower Anther, so she couldn't be sure.
But Shi Qizuo's preliminary autopsy, Shi Qizuo said that it still needs to be confirmed, but Yin Qiqi has already made a conclusion in her heart, she can be sure that what makes the deceased form that kind of appearance must be ice stiffness.
Listening to Yin Seventeen's eloquent talk, it is a matter of course to show his face and flowers, but he listens to Ye Ziluo slightly, and his beautiful black eyes contain admiration that is difficult to hide.
Zhan Yan agreed with Yin Seventeen's analysis, and then added:
"The deceased died about half an hour ago, when Seventeen and I were at the mouth of the Twelfth Hutong, but we didn't hear a sound, and there are usually three reasons for this.
One is that the deceased and the murderer knew each other, the deceased was defenseless, and was killed in an instant, not to mention shouting for help, even the sound next to him was not made; The second is that the deceased has nothing to do with the murderer, the deceased is walking in the eleven alleys, and was suddenly attacked by the murderer, first the murderer covered his mouth, and then killed the deceased with a knife, and the knife was so fast that the deceased died before he could resist. β
Zhan Yan said that there were three reasons, but after saying two reasons, he stopped, Yin Seventeen was thoughtful, the leaves were not in a hurry, but the flowers were in a hurry:
"Is there a third cause?"
Zhan Yan looked at Yin Seventeen, and Yin Seventeen looked at each other, and after a few breaths, Yin Seventeen said:
"Three, Yu Guangnian's door is not the real scene of the murder, but the second scene of the murder after the murderer deliberately moved the body here!"
Hua Zilai heard Yin Seventeen say that this was not the real scene of the first crime, and couldn't help but look around in front of Yu Guangnian's house again, except for the place where the headless man's corpse was frozen on the wall next to Yu Guangnian's house, there was a large pool of blood, and there was indeed no trace of blood in other places.
It stands to reason that if this is the scene of the first crime, then when the murderer's knife cuts off the deceased's head, the blood sprayed from the skull will not only stain the deceased and the murderer, but also spray some on the ground.
Ran Hua watched for a long time, and even carefully checked the ground in front of Yu Guangnian's house, but did not see any blood.
Hua Zilai muttered: "It's going to be night, and the moonlight isn't bright tonight, maybe it's because the light is too dark, so I can't find the slightest trace of blood......
Hua Zilai's muttering came into the ears of Zhan Yan, Yin Seventeen, and Ye Ziluo, but Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen didn't reply, they were all trapped in their own contemplation, but Ye Ziluo walked to Hua Zilai's side and said:
"There's no need to look for it, except for the place where the headless man's corpse is frozen, there is indeed no trace of blood in other places."
Hua Zilai looked up at the leaves falling: "Are you sure?" β
Ye Ziluo said: "I'm sure." β
When Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen analyzed the case, Ye Ziluo not only knew more about Yin Seventeen in his heart, but he also unconsciously paid attention to the crime scene in front of Yu Guangnian's house along with the analysis of the case.
As Zhan Yan and Yin XVII deduced, it is indeed very likely that this is not the scene of the first crime where the murderer cut off the head of the deceased.
And the reason why I say "very likely" is because it may also be possible that the murderer did not work hard to clean up the scene after the killing.
If this is the case, then why didn't the murderer clean up the blood on the deceased's body and the blood stall where he was standing?
What Ye Ziluo could think of, Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen obviously thought of it, and when Hua Zilai and Ye Ziluo were talking, the two were also talking about this issue.
Yin Seventeen said: "Which one does Brother Zhan think is more likely?" β
Zhan Yan said: "It is still impossible to draw a conclusion, as you said, it is most important for us to find the head and identity of the deceased as soon as possible, as for whether this is the first crime scene...... You'll know it when you try it, won't you? β
