Qin Lin was very tired from running back and forth between Yanzhou Mansion and Jinan, so he had to hand over the work of overnight investigation and visit to Lu Yuanzhi, Niu Dali and others, and got up the next day to stretch his waist, and suddenly felt that his whole body was full of energy, and the speed of recovery from fatigue was much faster than in the past.

At breakfast time, while drinking the medicinal porridge boiled by Qingdai himself, he listened to the results of Lu Yuanzhi and Niu Dali's investigation and visit last night.

Considering that the murderer first smashed the head of the deceased Zhou Dexing and then cut his neck, the clothes worn by the murderer must be stained with blood, Qin Lin returned to the mansion and sent Asha to lead the big yellow dog to track and investigate before lying down to sleep.

Rhubarb sniffed the blood at the scene and quickly chased it down the alley behind the house, but it only chased to the small river not far away, and completely lost its target.

Lu Yuanzhi took the brothers of the official academy to illuminate the torches with light balls, carefully investigated, and found a little ash after the burning of clothes on the bank, thinking that the murderer was by this inaccessible river, changed the bloody clothes on his body, and then burned and destroyed the evidence.

Since this is the second scene where the bloody clothes were burned, and it is very likely that the murder weapon is nearby, Niu Dali braved the cold air of the early spring night and touched it again and again in the cold and biting river, and really found the murder weapon!

Now, two murder weapons were presented in front of Qin Lin, an iron hammer and a bull's ear sharp knife, and the surface was covered with mud and sand in the river.

"Looks like this should be a murder weapon, right?" Niu vigorously opened his eyes like copper bells, and it was thanks to this guy who was as strong as a cow to go down to the river, otherwise it would not be easy to get the murder weapon in the cold river water.

"Maybe, well, fat man, hand me the little tweezers," Qin Lin carefully observed, there was something white in the gap between the hammer head and the hammer handle, and he used tweezers to clip it out and look at it in the sun: "Well, it's a fragment of a skull, and there's a hair under it—that's right, it's a murder weapon." ”

Putting down the tweezers, Qin Lin picked up the medicinal porridge and took a few bites.

Lu Yuanzhi and Niu Dali looked at each other and smiled, what kind of murder weapon, human skull, our chief should not come, and he can sleep and eat.

"This, on the knife and hammer, can you get fingerprints?" Lu Yuanzhi asked wistfully.

Other officials and school brothers also cast hopeful glances at Qin Lin, in their minds, Qin Shaobao was simply omnipotent.

Qin Lin smiled bitterly and looked at the two murder weapons full of sediment at the bottom of the river, gritted his teeth and drank all the medicinal food, and finally looked up to the sky and sighed: "Old, son, hate, sand!" ”

No, all forensic doctors hate sand, sand, a ubiquitous thing in nature, is simply specifically against forensics, and the footprints and wheel prints and horseshoe prints left on the sand will soon be completely destroyed by rain or tides, and the blood dripping on the sand is often blurred, not only that, but if you want to extract fingerprints from the surface of the sand, I am afraid that even Sherlock Holmes can't do it...... Now, both murder weapons have been coated with mud and sand at the bottom of the river, and the fingerprints have long been destroyed under the washing of the water and the friction of the mud and sand.

Rhubarb's tracking and fingerprint identification have encountered insurmountable problems, and it seems that the case must make a breakthrough through other means.

"Did you find anything in your neighborhood and the people passing through here?" Qin Lin looked at the two murder weapons without raising his head, "I remember that the surroundings of the scene are very quiet, if there is any noise, it will attract the attention of the neighbors." ”

Niu Dali had a bitter face: "The neighbor on the left is the vendor who reported the crime, he is a widower, his wife died early, he has no children under his knees, he sells steamed cakes outside during the day every day, and there is only a sixty-year-old lady left in the family at the time of the crime, and his ears are so old that he can't hear the thunder in the sky; The neighbor on the right also happened to have gone to the house, and the whole family was not in the house. The road was relatively out of the way, and there were not many people walking on weekdays, so no one heard or saw anything until the hawker reported the crime. ”

Qin Lin frowned and thought for a while, and said in his heart that this case is really a bit weird, there are no fingerprints, no clear suspects, and there are no witnesses to the crime or even people who heard the movement, isn't it a headless case?

"So, what kind of person is Zhou Dexing's wife Wu? How is the relationship between the two of them? Qin Lin thought about it and asked again.

Lu Yuanzhi laughed: "The neighbors all say that the Wu family is very responsible - the man is the head catcher of the government office, of course she is responsible, anyway, the neighbors all say that they have never heard these two quarrel." She happened to take the child to her mother's house this time, and she happened to escape the catastrophe, but the orphans and widows were also very miserable, but in addition to the two old ones, the only brother in the mother's family was blind, and I am afraid that they could not help the two of them, alas......"

Isn't it, with the cruelty of the murderer and the clear goal of killing people, if the Wu family and the child are also at home, it will be impossible to escape.

"A model couple who have never quarreled......" Qin Lin tapped his fingers on his temples.

"Aha, are you ironic Miss Ben?" Xu Xinyi walked over with a yawn.

With a pop, Lu Yuanzhi and Niu Dali both squirted laughter into their noses and eyes, but they were glared at by Miss Xu and held back, making these two stomachs hurt.

Xu Xinyi and Qin Lin, the happy rivals, when will they not quarrel? If there is no bickering one day, it must be the sun coming out of the west!

Qin Lin couldn't help but be happy, and hugged his fists at Xu Xinyi: "Madame is extremely smart and very self-aware!" ”

The plump lips pursed, and Miss Xu puffed out her apricot eyes and glared at him fiercely.

At this point, the clues have been completely cut off, there is no possibility of a relatively large suspect, there are no eyewitnesses, not only can no fingerprints be extracted, but even the motive for the murder is difficult to determine, it is really a headless strange case.

Qin Lin touched his chin and said to himself: "I once thought that it was the White Lotus Sect's Gao Tianlong envoy's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and when I went to Jinan to set up an ambush, he killed Zhou Dexing under Yanzhou, but now it seems that it is not quite right......"——

Outside the city, the White Lotus Sect's secret stronghold in Yanzhou, the White Lotus Sect's holy left envoy Gao Tianlong's mood was no better than Qin Lin's, and he was even more crying and laughing.

Hu Yunpeng was also full of frustration: "It was not easy for his subordinates to set a trap and lure Zhou Dexing to follow him, so that he could listen to the 'secret' we wanted him to know, but he didn't know that this guy would be slaughtered in a blink of an eye." His grandmother's, which Mao God killed the surname Zhou? I really want to rip off his skin alive! ”

Xiong and Yang Er also looked like they had eaten stool, Zhou Dexing was part of their plan this time, and he died suddenly and inexplicably, which really made people not know what to say.

"I hope the person surnamed Qin will solve the case quickly!" Gao Tianlong sighed.

The White Lotus Sect actually hoped that Jinyiwei could quickly solve the case, maybe this was the first time in the past.
