Chapter 208: Human Skin Bloodshed
The old man of the porter was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed and said, "Sir, yes, it's my fault, last night, I, I sold a pot of wine, got drunk, and fell asleep." When I got up this morning, I saw that the door of your room was open, so I went in and looked, and found that the feet that Miss Butterfly had put in the box were missing. I searched everywhere but couldn't find it, the door of the mortuary was well closed, it was tied from the inside, I checked, it was closed well, and no one had touched it. And the walls of the mortuary are very high, and there is no one else in the courtyard except me, why is it gone? So, I'm here to report to the lord. ”
Lu Jinping followed the old man of the mortuary to the yamen mortuary, which has an independent small courtyard in the corner of the yamen, and the walls are very tall, much higher than the courtyard walls of ordinary people's homes.
Lu Jinping came to the door of the mortuary and looked inside. The box that originally contained a pair of Wind Butterfly's feet was still on the table against the wall, and the box had been opened.
Lu Jinping first squatted down to check the situation on the ground near the door, and found nothing abnormal, so he avoided the normal passage and made a detour to the table.
Because he was afraid that the lime would destroy the stump of the deceased, he did not put the stump directly on the lime, but put it in a bag, which could absorb the moisture in the air to slow down the decay of the corpse, which was a last resort.
But now it's summer, and the temperature is very high, so after more than ten days, the feet are actually starting to rot, and the skin and flesh have been semi-liquefied. But now, the highly corrupted stump is gone.
Lu Jinping walked to the door of the mortuary and looked at the copper ring of the padlock on the door that was twisted and bent. But the brass lock on it was gone, so he asked the old man who guarded the door, "Is this room locked?" ”
"It's definitely locked, I dare to pack the ticket with my head, as long as it's not the master to investigate the case, this mortuary has always been locked, and the key is on me. When I get up in the morning. The door was found open, and the copper lock had been torn off. I went in and found that the leg was missing, so I hurried to report to the lord. ”
"What about the locks?"
"I don't know where it went."
Lu Jinping and the mortuary concierge searched around for a long time, but they didn't find the copper lock. Was it taken away by someone who infiltrated?
He got up again to check the knocker of the padlock on the door, and found that the knocker was deformed, and he knew that someone must have grabbed the lock and rotated it, and wrung the door lock with chopsticks.
Although copper locks are not as strong as steel, they are relatively easier. However, to use soft hands to wring off a copper rod from chopsticks, that is not something that ordinary people can do. This power is truly shocking.
Could it be that this person is a martial arts master?
A martial arts master sneaked into the mortuary of the yamen and stole a pair of rotten legs from Wind Butterfly, but why? It can't be a foot fetishist, right? Even if it's a foot fetish, what's there to love about when the feet are rotten?
Lu Jinping muttered in his heart, and after coming out, he checked the door bolt of the courtyard door, and there was no trace of damage. Intact.
At this time, the bear catcher had already gotten the news. came in a hurry with a few catchers, but Lu Jinping didn't let them into the yard, so he asked them to wait outside the yard. At the same time, Lu Jinping ordered Yu to come to his house to inform Ye Qingqing to come.
He called Ye Qingqing to come, of course, to ask her to bring her forensic investigation box. Ye Qingqing understands this. Therefore, Ye Qingqing soon rushed to the Yamen mortuary with the forensic investigation box of Lu Jinping on his back.
Lu Jinping took the forensic investigation box handed over by Ye Qingqing. Let the old porter also push the door out, and then close the door, because he has to be tested, and no outsiders can watch.
He took out the ultraviolet laser forensic detector and put on fluorescence-enhancing glasses. Begin a search for suspicious traces in the yard. The key is the copper lock, since the murderer unscrewed the copper lock, there must have been some trace physical evidence of the murderer left on it, such as fingerprint sweat stains or something.
Lu Jinping originally hoped to find the copper lock and extract from the lock, the shedding cells left by the person who stole the wind butterfly's legs. However, the bronze lock could not be found, and he could only focus his investigation on the door. Hopefully that person left fingerprints or bodily fluids on the door or on the box or something. However, to his disappointment, the fingerprints extracted from the door were compared with those of the old man at the door of the mortuary, and there was no mention of suspicious fingerprints on the box.
After Lu Jinping surveyed the scene, he did not get any useful clues. He wondered a little, did this person have experience in counter-reconnaissance?
No, the ancient people didn't know the modern anti-investigation experience, it must be because of some factors that made her unable to leave the corresponding traces of physical evidence, such as being extremely agile.
The lost feet Lu Jinping couldn't find more useful clues, so the loss of those feet was not much of a loss for him, and it wasn't even a criminal case. He couldn't find it, so he was curious, this man seemed to be agile and could climb over the high courtyard wall of the yamen, but why did he go to the mortuary of the yamen and steal a mutilated foot?
Lu Jinping returned to the signing room suspiciously, and sat there in a daze, pondering about this matter. And at this moment, Xiong Zhutou hurriedly ran over to Lu Jinping and said, "Sir, it's not good, Chunhualou has a murder case again!" ”
Lu Jinping's head was big when he heard it, the previous three murders had not been solved, and now there were murders, didn't this kill people? Could it be that this Chunhualou is really an ominous place, why are there murders one after another? Hurriedly asked, "What's going on?" ”
"This time, the frost peach girl who was selected as the leader died, and the death was extremely terrifying!"
Lu Jinping stood up and asked as he walked out, "How is the horror law?" ”
"She, she was skinned, and the human skin of her entire body was stripped away, leaving only a bloody body, which is really scary."
Lu Jinping stood up suddenly, turned his head to look at him: "Peeling? ”
"Yes, just now, the people from Chunhualou came to report to the official, saying that the frost peach girl was killed in the house, and the human skin was stripped away, leaving only a bloody corpse on the bed, which is very scary."
"Prepare your horse immediately!"
Ye Qingqing was about to return to the old mansion with Lu Jinping's forensic investigation box, but she didn't expect this to happen, but fortunately she didn't leave, so she called and went to Chunhua Tower with Lu Jinping.
There are already many people gathered at the gate of Chunhualou to watch the excitement. After the rich man of Ma had a murder case before, he already knew the importance of protecting the scene, and now he had a murder case, although he complained bitterly, he still arranged for the turtle prince of Chunhualou to block the scene and not allow anyone to enter, so the people who watched the excitement could only talk outside.
There are a lot of people who came to see the excitement this time, firstly, because the continuous murder cases in Chunhualou are very strange, and on the other hand, of course, this time, what happened is different. The fact that a woman who was like a flower and jade was actually skinned off sounds terrifying.
Fear is fear, but the curiosity of man is provoked by this, and so that there are many more people to see the excitement than before. Lu Jinping still took some effort to separate the crowd and enter the Chunhua Building.
The rich man waited at the door with a sad face, he knew that Lu Jinping would come soon, so he didn't go in and simply stood at the door and waited. Sure enough, after seeing Lu Jinping come out, he hurriedly ran up to greet him.
Without waiting for Lu Jinping to ask, the rich man Ma hurriedly said first: "In the morning, the maid of the frost peach girl didn't see the frost peach girl......
Lu Jinping glanced at the crowd around him, waved his hand, signaled him not to say anything yet, and let him follow him into the Chunhua Building and to the patio. The servants and maids were all confined to their own rooms, so there was no one on the patio. Lu Jinping asked the rich man Ma to tell him what had happened.
The rich man said, "Last night, Miss Frost Peach slept a little late, and it took almost four watches to go to bed. So the maid didn't dare to call her until noon, but it was about to have lunch, so she decided to wake her up, and his tent was always there. Lifting the curtain of the tent, the maid found that the frost peach girl was dead on the bed, and the human skin had been completely peeled off, and the body of the bloody forest was very scary. ”
Lu Jinping ordered the maid to be called in for detailed questioning, which was similar to what the rich man Ma said.
Lu Jinping wanted to investigate the scene first, and then come back to ask this girl.
He came to the courtyard of the Frost Peach Girl. Frost Peach is the eye of the list, except for the gaze, it belongs to her, so her yard is also extremely luxurious and magnificent.
When you enter the courtyard, the main house in front of you is the embroidery room, and next to it is the study. According to the maid, the body was found in the bedroom.
Lu Jinping carefully avoided places on the ground that might leave traces, came to the bedside, gently lifted the curtain, and couldn't help but gasp when he saw it.
I saw a bloody female corpse lying on the bed. But there is no way to distinguish people, because the skin of the whole corpse has been peeled, leaving only a blood-red body, but because no large blood vessels have been destroyed, the amount of bleeding is not very large, but the quilt under the body is soaked.
It is precisely because the amount of bleeding is not much, so Lu Jinping came to a preliminary judgment that skinning should be carried out after the victim died, and after the heart stopped beating, there was no heart beating to stimulate the blood, so the amount of bleeding would be relatively much less.
Lu Jinping inspected the surface of the corpse, except for the trauma caused by peeling, there were no other obvious external injuries, and the cause of death could not be accurately judged at once.
Lu Jinping decided to conduct an autopsy immediately to find out what the cause was. Look at whether the frost peach was skinned after being killed or because of other reasons, such as accidental death, and was skinned after death, the punishment for the crime in these two situations is completely different. Therefore, it is important to find out the exact cause of death. (To be continued.) )
