Chapter 7: Strange Footprints

As soon as Lu Hehuan returned to the police station, he went straight to the identification room, and he was at a loss to investigate the case, and he wanted to get new clues from the autopsy report.

Lu Hehuan knocked on the door of the appraisal room, and Bao Ying's gentle voice came from inside the room, "Please come in." ”

Bao Ying carefully sorted out the information without raising his head, Lu Hehuan pushed the door in, and it was not until he walked in front of him that Bao Ying realized that it was Lu Hehuan.

"He Huan, why are you here? Sit down. Bao Ying looked pleasantly surprised.

Lu Hehuan sat down and glanced at the information in Bao Ying's hand.

"Xiao Ying, I came to ask you, are there any new discoveries in the autopsy results of Jin Lu's murder?"

Bao Ying put down the information in his hand and shook his head, "It's the same thing, there is no progress, how are you checking over there?" ”

"I suspect that it was the rickshaw driver Dagen who murdered Jin Lu, but I visited Dagen's wife, as well as Dagen's neighbors and the deceased's neighbors, and they all showed that Dagen returned home to take care of his injured wife after sending Jinlu home, and he never went out after that."

"Is it possible that Dagen didn't go home immediately after sending Jin Lu back, but made another appointment with Jin Lu, and then killed Jin Lu in the empty house of Huaihua Lane?"

"I've thought about this situation, but ......" Lu Hehuan said and glanced at the old gate map next to him, and directly took it over and said while analogizing, "Look, Dagen's family is in this location, Jinlu's family is in this location, and Huaihua Lane is in the opposite position of Dagen's house, if Dagen sends Jinlu home and then makes an appointment, and then kills people in the empty house in Huaihua Lane, it will be at least ten o'clock when he returns home, it can't be nine o'clock as Dagen's wife and neighbors said." ”

Bao Ying nodded and sighed, and the two fell into inexplicable disappointment.

Suddenly, Ying Xi's voice came from behind him.

"In this case, this case must have nothing to do with the big root you talked about, it must be that Jin Lu later went out to meet someone privately, and was robbed and killed by Dabao when he walked to the empty house of Huaihua Lane." Ying Xi looked smug after speaking.

"Dabao can't be the murderer, in the process of investigating Dagen, I feel that Dagen and his wife are a little wrong, but I can't say what's wrong." Lu Hehuan retorted.

"A high-achieving student who came back from Scotland, you can't rely on feelings to investigate the case, you have to rely on evidence, didn't you just say that Dagen has a full alibi, so how can he kill someone? Unless he has the art of cloneing. Ying Xi said the truth.

Lu Hehuan was stunned for a moment, as if he had thought of something, and repeated what Ying Xi said in a low voice, "Doppelganger Technique......

A police officer walked into the appraisal room, "Inspector Ying, Director Bao is looking for you." ”

"Got it, I'll go over here."

Ying Xi turned around and left, deliberately leaving Lu Hehuan and Bao Ying with a dashing back.

"I still have to go to Jinlu's house." Lu Hehuan made up his mind.

"I'll go with you."

Bao Ying followed Lu Hehuan away.

Ying Xi trotted all the way to the door of Bao Kang's office and knocked respectfully.

Bao Kang's familiar voice floated into the room, "Come in." ”

"Hello Director Bao!"

Ying Xi pushed the door in with a smile on his face, but what he saw was Bao Kang with a gloomy face and knotted eyebrows.

"Ying Xi, the chief inspector called just now, Jin Lu's case has a great impact, and I have promised him to solve the case within two days."

"Is it from now on?" Ying was taken aback and subconsciously glanced at the clock on the wall.

Bao Kang shook his head, and Ying Xi escaped into despair.

"Then today is the next day......"

"It's not dark yet, is it difficult?" Bao Kang's eyebrows were twisted.

"Nope!" Ying Xi was well versed in Bao Kang's temperament, but he was afraid that he would be angry, so he had to agree hard.

The sun began to set in the west, shining on the plaque of the Frost Detective Agency. Liu Rushuang hurriedly went out and walked towards the police station with a clear purpose, and the little attendant Bai Yulou followed behind with some reluctance.

Liu Rushuang looked at the fruit shop on the street, wanting to reward Ying Xi, "In vain, go buy some fruit for Brother Xi, I don't know if Jin Lu's case is closed, Brother Xi must have worked day and night these days, you also know that it takes a lot of brains to investigate the case, so you have to make up for him." ”

"When did Ying Xi use his brain to investigate the case." Bai Yulou muttered in a low voice.

"What are you muttering?"

"I said I wanted to make up for my brain."

Bai Yulou was afraid that Liu Rushuang would be angry, so he changed his words again and again, and Liu Rushuang also smiled happily, "It's pretty much the same." ”

Liu Rushuang is right, Ying Xi should indeed make up for it, at this time he and Dabao were fighting wits and courage in the interrogation room, but it was obvious that Ying Xi was at a disadvantage, he looked haggard, grabbed his hair with both hands, and seemed to have reached the verge of collapse, and the two police officers were also yawning listlessly when they stood next to him.

"Wronged, wronged......" Dabao sat opposite Ying Xi, crying.

"What else would you say besides that? You have said one hundred and twenty-seven times that you have been wronged. Ying Xi yawned impatiently.

"I was really wronged!"

"It seems that you don't cry when you don't see the coffin, and if you don't give you some punishment, you don't know how powerful Inspector Ben is!" Ying Xi was overjoyed and motioned to the police officer next to him, "Waiting for the big punishment!" ”

"Detective, aren't you afraid that Lu Hehuan's kid will complain about you?" The police officer was stunned.

"It's better to be complained about than to be driven crazy."

"Yes!" When the police officer saw that Ying Xi was backing, he instantly came to his senses.

"Don't, don't ......"

Dabao began to shout and reason in an infinite loop, and the two police officers put him on a chair with high morale, and one of the police officers took off Dabao's shoes and put Dabao's legs up with bricks, as if he was going to sit on a tiger chair.

"No, I don't want to sit on the tiger chair."

"This is not a tiger chair, it is the 'foot piercing torture' that I invented." It should be corrected harshly.

"Wronged, I'm really wronged!"

"Hard mouth! Execution! Ying Xi was angry and urged the police.

Two police officers came to Dabao's feet with two chicken feathers.

"Punishment is waiting!"

The two police officers received Ying Xi's order and began to scratch Dabao's feet with chicken feathers.

"Haha, Detective, hahaha, I was wronged, hahahaha, hahaha, hahaha......" Dabao couldn't help laughing and shouting injustice.

Ying Xi saw that Dabao couldn't resist it, so he raised his hand seriously, "Stop." ”

At this moment, Dabao was already laughing and tearful, Ying Xi wiped his tears for him, and began to persuade him with kind words.

"Dabao, I advise you not to do useless struggles, just admit that you did it."

"Detective, it's not me, it's really not me."

Ying Xi immediately straightened his face, "Hmph, don't cry if you don't see the coffin!" Give him a 'burning stake' and burn his internal organs. ”

The police officer took a handful of red peppers from a bamboo basket on the side, tore them up, and stuffed them into Dabao's mouth.

Dabao was so spicy that he gasped, "It's spicy, it's spicy, Inspector, I'm so spicy......"

"Dabao, do you recruit or not?"

"Wronged...... Hot...... Unjustly killed spicy ......" Dabao is so spicy, but he still hasn't given up shouting injustice.

"Dabao, you forced me." Ying Xi's eyes were ruthless, he couldn't make a plan, and he had another plan, looked at the policeman, "Give him a 'sad heartbreak punishment'." ”

The officers looked at each other, clubbing in place like a wooden stake, and no one was willing to move.

Ying Xi looked at a police officer.

"Bald, you go get the torture instruments."

"Me again?" The bald head is full of reluctance.

"Go!"

The bald head saw Ying Xi urging like a desperate urge, and reluctantly left.

"It won't be long before I tell you that you can't live, you can't die." Ying Xi stared at Dabao fiercely.

"Detective, you spare me, I'm really wronged."

"Hmph, looking at your greed for life and fear of death, I didn't wronged you!"

The police officer baldly brought a basket of onions, stood in front of Dabao and began to peel the onions. In an instant, Dabao burst into tears, and his bald head choked on tears, which really hurt others and hurt himself first, which is why he was reluctant to use this punishment.

"Boy, let's take a little less sin." The bald head empathetically persuades.

"I'll recruit ...... I ...... beckon" Dabao finally couldn't resist.

"Stop, put Dabao down." Ying Ying's anger suddenly subsided, and he changed to a kind expression.

The police officer helped Dabao to sit on the chair, and Ying Xi leaned forward to offer condolences and gave a thumbs up.

"Dabao, you really know the current affairs, since you have already recruited, now draw and sign."

The police officer had already spread out the file in front of Dabao, Dabao looked dazed, Ying Xi saw this, grabbed Dabao's thumb and pressed a mark on it.

Looking at the blood-red handprints on the file, Ying was beaming with joy, Dabao leaned back on the chair, stunned, tears slid down in large pieces, smashing the prison uniform.

Liu Rushuang and Bai Yulou came to the interrogation room with fruits, and when they saw Dabao, who was crying wet clothes, they immediately felt sympathy.

"Inspector Ying, did you torture Dabao?" Bai Yulou asked as he hid his little face that was red from fear.

"This inspector is trying the case, and it's not your turn to interject."

Bai Yulou looked at Liu Rushuang, and Liu Rushuang was a little embarrassed.

"Now that Dabao has confessed, this proves that my inference is correct."

"It's obvious that it's a trick to confess your guilt, and you will cry like this? The clothes were soaked. Bai Yulou had the courage to glance at Dabao again.

"You know a fart, that's tears of remorse." Ying Xi opened his eyes and said nonsense.

"Brother Xi......"

Liu Rushuang couldn't stand it anymore, and wanted to step forward to reason with Dabao, but was rudely interrupted by Ying Xi, "Are you going to go against me?" We won't have to meet again after that. ”

Liu Rushuang swallowed what she wanted to say, looked at Dabao, who had shed tears, looked sympathetic, and began to comfort Dabao again.

"Dabao, don't worry, when your case is closed, I will spend money to buy you out, at most you have the reputation of a murderer, and you will not be punished by a murderer. The disadvantage may be that someone will point fingers at you in the future, but the advantage is that they only dare to point fingers at you behind your back, and they will be respectful to you in person. ”

Ying Xi snorted coldly, ignored Liu Rushuang, and motioned to the other police officers, "Take the prisoner back to the prison, sort out the file, and prepare to close the case." ”

Ying Xi hurried away with the dossier, and Liu Rushuang chased after him with the fruit.

"Brother Xi, wait for me, I'll buy you fruit."

"Bad luck, I can't help you anymore." Bai Yulou glanced at the crying Dabao, sighed, and followed.

Ying Xi took the file back to the office and sat lazily in his chair, now that the case was over, the big stone in his heart finally landed.

Liu Rushuang and Bai Yulou followed, Liu Rushuang put a bag of fruit on the table and smiled at the other police officers.

"The inspector should treat you to dinner, everyone can eat as you like." Liu Rushuang began to buy people's hearts again.

"Thank you, Inspector Ying." The officers took fruit to eat.

Ying Xi glanced at Liu Rushuang, looking quite disdainful, "Do some messy things." ”

Liu Rushuang didn't care, but Bai Yulou remembered Fang Caixi's torture to extract a confession, and muttered in a low voice, "And you forced people to make a mess of unjust prisons?" ”

"What did you kid say? Believe it or not, I'm going to kick you out now, and I'm not going to let you in again? Ying Xi angrily reprimanded Bai Yulou.

Liu Rushuang immediately became anxious when she heard that Ying Xi was going to issue an eviction order, and she also began to scold Bai Yulou, "Baibai, if you make Brother Xi unhappy again, believe it or not, I will quit you tomorrow?" ”

"Brother Xi's wisdom and martial arts have you, right?" Bai Yulou hurriedly softened.

"That's pretty much it."

Ying Xi's anger dissipated, rubbed his beard, and began to consult the file.

Suddenly, Lu Hehuan ran in, followed by Bao Ying.

As soon as Ying Xi saw Lu Hehuan, he immediately put away the file, for fear of being robbed, to be precise, he was afraid of being robbed by Lu Hehuan.

"Lu Hehuan, you're late, Dabao has already pleaded guilty." Ying Xi took the lead.

"Ying Xi, in order to get the case decided as soon as possible, you actually tortured the suspect to extract a confession, which is in violation." Lu Hehuan looked angry.

Ying Xi didn't care, his hands behind his back, and he was on his toes.

"Which eye did you see Inspector Ben torture to extract a confession?"

"I just saw Dabao in the cell, Dabao is so sad that he can't even tell you the process of torture to extract a confession."

Ying Xi smiled, "That's a side effect of 'Burning Burn', and it will be clear when you speak tomorrow." ”

"You're a careless man!" The more Lu Hehuan spoke, the more angry he became.

Liu Rushuang ran to Lu Hehuan, looking like she had the ability to rush at me.

"Lu Hehuan, why are you talking to Brother Xi so loudly? Don't say that you have been fired, even if you are a police officer, you are also Brother Xi's subordinate, at least respect do you understand? ”

"Go, go, little girl, what's the matter with you?" Ying Xi didn't buy Liu Rushuang's favor, and pushed her out impatiently, and turned to look at Lu Hehuan with his chin raised, "I told you Lu Hehuan, this is the rule of the police station, if you are capable, go and complain to the director, now that the case is about to be closed, what can you do with me?" ”

Lu Hehuan was speechless for a while, and Bao Ying saw Lu Hehuan's gloomy expression, and choked with joy.

"Inspector Ying, He Huan doesn't have to complain to my brother, I'll sue him for this case."

Lu Hehuan saw Bao Ying standing up for himself, and was grateful, "Xiao Ying." ”

Bao Ying looked at Lu Hehuan, and then stared at Ying Xi with a straight face.

Ying Xi put on a helpless look, "Xiao Ying, you can't turn your elbow outward, Director Bao is also eager to solve the case, and I am also relieved to him." ”

"That can't be rushed and wronged the innocent."

"What wronged innocent? Dabao pleaded guilty himself, if he didn't kill anyone, why would he confess? Liu Rushuang couldn't get used to seeing Ying Xi being pressed by Bao Ying, and stepped forward again.

Bao Ying sneered, "If it is a good student to interrogate Dabao, he may not admit his guilt, I am afraid that he will be beaten into a trick!" ”

"Which eye did you see that Brother Xi had beaten into a move? You can't spit blood just because you're the director's sister! What I'm not afraid of is that there is a backstage! Liu Rushuang's tone was not good.

Bao Ying saw that Liu Rushuang was unreasonable, and couldn't help but be angry, but she was a Sven person after all, and she couldn't let go of the shelf, "You...... Unreasonable! ”

Lu Hehuan stopped Bao Ying and whispered comfort, "Forget it, Xiao Ying." ”

"She's so deceitful." Bao Ying looked aggrieved.

When Liu Rushuang heard this, she put her left hand around Ying Xi's arm, and her right hand crossed her waist, becoming more and more arrogant.

"You're unreasonable, aren't you, Brother Xi?" Liu Rushuang rolled her eyes as she spoke.

Ying Xi shook off Liu Rushuang, "Okay, okay, don't argue, Chief Inspector Gordon ordered that the case must be closed today, if you can't come up with new evidence, I will find a quiet place to sort out the file, and I will report to Director Bao tonight." ”

Ying Xi turned around and left, Liu Rushuang also had to follow, Ying Xi pointed at Liu Rushuang, "Don't follow me!" ”

Liu Rushuang pouted unhappily, and Ying Xi walked out of the office with the file of the Jin Lu case.

Ying Xi returned to the dormitory, spread the file on the table sprinkled with the setting sun, and looked at the file with satisfaction.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and Lu Hehuan chased in angrily.

"Inspector Ying, I have something to say!" Lu Hehuan still looks unrelenting.

"What are you doing? Is it easy for me to work so hard to get to the position of an inspector, you don't try to go against me anymore. Ying Xi was irritable, and his tone was threatening and pleading.

"The Jinlu case is full of suspicions, and Dabao is not a murderer at all." Lu Hehuan was awe-inspiring.

"Then who is the murderer, are you or am I?" Should be happy to grab white.

"I suspect that Dagen is the real murderer!" Lu Hehuan said without a trace of hesitation.

"Then come up with evidence, Scotland Yard's top student, I can't write on the file that the murderer may be Dagen, right?" Ying Xi looked helpless.

"Is there evidence for Dabao's crime? Eager to make meritorious contributions, irresponsible, you really don't deserve to be a detective! "Lu Hehuan used his own way to govern his body.

Ying Xi was commanded by an army and started a fire, "Am I not worthy of you?" Lu Hehuan, don't give you some color to open a dyeing workshop, it's not your turn to teach me a lesson at the old gate police station! If you have the ability, don't talk nonsense here, go catch a real murderer! ”

"You don't need to say it, I will definitely catch the real murderer!"

Ying Xi casually grabbed a pillow from the bed and smashed it at Lu Hehuan, "Then don't go quickly!" Don't come back to be angry with me at night, go catch your real murderer! ”

Ying Xi said as he pushed Lu Hehuan out of the dormitory and threw Lu Hehuan's luggage out.

Lu Hehuan picked up his luggage and saw Bao Ying standing at the door.

"Xiao Ying......" Lu Hehuan was a little embarrassed.

"You, are you alright?" Bao Ying asked with concern.

Lu Hehuan sorted out his clothes, "It's okay, I'm going to go to Jinlu's house again." ”

"I'll go with you."

Bao Ying followed Lu Hehuan away.

Lu Hehuan and Bao Ying came to Jin Lu's house together. The setting sun shone through the wide leaves of the French plane trees on the ground, leaving dappled light and shadow, but unfortunately the two of them only cared about surveying and did not care to enjoy this beautiful scenery.

The light and shadow moved, flickering and faintly covering the string of footprints stepped on by the high heels in front of Jin Lu's house.

"This should be the last series of footprints left by Jin Lu at home before he died." Lu Hehuan looked at the footprints and suddenly sighed.

"If she knew something was going to happen, I wonder if she would change her mind and stop going out?"

Lu Hehuan sighed, "It's a pity, there is no if." ”

"That's right."

The sycamore in front of the door seemed to be clear, and the branches swayed and made a rattling sound.

"Xiao Ying, how did you come up with the idea of becoming a forensic doctor?" Lu Hehuan changed his words.

Bao Ying raised her head, and the setting sun shone on her face, showing a bit of sacredness.

"The profession of forensic medicine is very sacred, no matter what kind of person the deceased was during his lifetime, in the eyes of our forensic doctors, they are all equal, in the autopsy, I am not only faced with a cold body, but also their final struggle when they are dying, I am not only dissecting the body, but also communicating with them, listening to the information they left behind."

"Director Bao must be proud of you when he hears it."

"My brother? How could he understand, he would only say (imitating Bao Kang's tone) 'Xiao Ying, don't you babble, okay?' What do you mean by saying so much? Don't you just think it's good to be a forensic doctor? ’”

Lu Hehuan was amused by Bao Ying.

"He Huan, in fact, my brother is not bad, but he is a little vulgar."

Lu Hehuan nodded, "It's still a little vulgar." ”

"You're still the same as when you were a child, straight to the point." Bao Ying also smiled.

Lu Hehuan was a little embarrassed, and turned to stare at the high-heeled footprints on the ground, secretly distracted, and suddenly he found something, pointing to a footprint, and was emotional.

"Xiao Ying, have you noticed that this footprint is a little different?"

Under the guidance of Lu Hehuan, Bao Ying looked over.

"It's different, the medial and lateral indentations are inconsistent."

"It's supposed to be a footprint indentation when you twist your foot." Lu Hehuan inferred.

Bao Ying nodded, "But it's not uncommon for women to twist their feet in high heels, and I've twisted them several times." ”

"But it's strange if you twist your foot twice between three steps." Lu Hehuan continued to look at the footprints in front of him, concentrating.

Bao Ying looked at Lu He Huan's line of sight and found a high-heeled shoe footprint with the characteristics of twisting his feet.

"There is another one here, judging by the impressions, the foot should not be twisted lightly, Jin Lu often wears high heels, how can he be so careless?"

"It's not that Jin Lu is careless, it's that the murderer carelessly ......"

Lu Hehuan looked at the footprints of the two high-heeled shoes formed by twisting his feet, and suddenly realized himself.
