Chapter 53: One Corpse, Two Lives
readx;
Although it is not a very important discovery, there is no doubt that the case has made new progress under Du He's keen insight. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info is just a small step, but it's a leap forward, expanding your gaze from the place of accommodation to the kitchen.
Pratt & Whitney is deaf and dumb, which has caused them a lot of trouble, but it has saved them a lot of time at this point.
It is precisely because Pratt & Whitney is deaf and dumb that he does not hear strange things and can only see with his eyes, which have a limited range of vision.
Du He came to Puhui's corpse, confessed his guilt, reached out and knocked his mouth open, and stared in, there was an obvious red residue between the gaps between the left and right teeth, it should be a pasta like steamed buns, but because it was stained with blood, it was blood-red.
He let go of his hand and said with a smile: "Puhui has steamed buns and other delicacies in his mouth, and he can't be wrong." It wasn't a deliberate murder, it was an accident. ā
Duan Ganzhi asked, "How can you see it?" Almost everyone in the temple knows the habits of Pratt & Whitney, and it is not difficult to inquire. In the dead of night, it's just the chance for vendettas. ā
"Impossible......" Du He confidently shook his finger and said, "Puhui woke up hungry and went out to find food, in other words, if Puhui didn't wake up hungry, or he was full the night before, then there was no need to go out and steal food." Puhui has the habit of waking up hungry at night to steal food to eat, but he doesn't have to look for food every night, the key is that the time he wakes up hungry is not fixed. That is to say, Pratt & Whitney may wake up at the same time, or it may wake up at the same time, and it is more likely that it will sleep until dawn, and it is really intentional to kill Puhui Puhui, and it is impossible to wait for a person who may or may not come in the long night, and is not sure when it will come. Therefore, vendetta can be ruled out first, and the rest of the accidents occupy most possibilities. ā
Duan Ganzhi nodded and convinced Du He's judgment, and said, "Go to the kitchen......"
Du He said: "The right decision ......"
Pratt & Whitney has food in his mouth, which means that Pratt & Whitney has been to the kitchen at night and stole food. It is wisest to start your investigation at the location of Pratt & Whitney's final location.
The dormitory of Hongfuji Temple is not very far from the dormitory, but it is only less than 800 meters away, and it can be reached in a few minutes at a slightly faster speed.
The house occupies a huge area, with two basketball courts full of miscellaneous items.
Duan Ganzhi searched in the kitchen, but Du He kept standing at the door of the kitchen, hiding his body, and kept peeking out.
"Brother-in-law, what are you doing here?" Gao Yang saw that Du He looked like a thief, and his round eyes were full of curiosity.
Changle also looked at her husband strangely, not understanding his strange behavior.
Du Ho laughed: "I'm just doing something Pratt & Whitney might do." You think, it's so dark at night, and you can't see the road without lanterns. The lanterns are so conspicuous at night that they can be seen from afar. The murderer of HP was supposed to be doing something shady, and his spirit was in a high state of tension, and it was impossible not to notice. Once noticed, the murderer will inevitably go into hiding. This way it can avoid being discovered, and there is no need to cause unnecessary killings. So I think there is only one possibility, Pratt & Whitney has come to the kitchen and found something like steamed buns, so that no one notices, he extinguished the lantern and enjoyed the food in the dark. You can imagine Puhui's mood at that time, nervous and happy, while eating, those eyes must be looking around, for fear of being discovered. At this time, the murderer walked into Pratt & Whitney's sight in order to do something unseemly...... Pratt & Whitney is often bullied, which shows that he is weak by nature, and he is afraid of being found and beaten, so he hides. ā
"But everyone is curious, and Pratt & Whitney is no exception...... When he found out that the purpose of the man was not to catch him as a thief, he inevitably had the idea of seeing what was going on, and this thought led to his death...... He should be hiding in the doorway, or somewhere secretly watching the comer...... In the end, he saw the secret, and at the same time exposed himself, which caused the murder. ā
As he spoke, his eyes fell on the eaves of the door, and suddenly he noticed some scratches on the left side of the door frame, and stepped forward to take a closer look. The door frame is wooden, old, to say the least twenty or thirty years old, but those scratches are brand new, and it is obvious that they have not been scratched for a few days.
"Brother Duan, let people check if there are some sawdust in Puhui's nails, if so, it proves that he is hiding here to find the murderer, because he saw something terrible, he unconsciously used force on his hands to scratch these scratches."
Duan Ganzhi did not hesitate to let him take the arrest and investigate.
After a while, the subordinates reported that Pratt & Whitney did have some sawdust in his nails.
Du He smiled confidently: "Search the yard immediately, there must be clues left in this yard that we want, and don't let go of anything suspicious." ā
The courtyard outside the kitchen is extensive, both as a place for the monks to eat and a place to get up early for exercise.
Under Du He's orders, Duan Ganzhi led a group of hunters to search the carpet in the courtyard.
Inch by inch, every suspicious place is not missed.
Suddenly, Wang Xing screamed in surprise.
In the corner of the yard near the kitchen, there is a huge storeroom. The storeroom was used to store timber, which has now bottomed out, with only a few in the corners remaining.
Du He heard Wang Xing's cry and walked over with Duan Ganzhi.
Wang Xing's feet were scratched on the ground, with a strange expression on his face, and he suddenly looked up and said: "There are strange things in this underground, and there are traces of renovation in the land." Although it is well covered, some clues can still be seen...... "Wang Xing has been engaged in the fast catching industry for 40 years. Although he is called Duan Ganzhi's eldest brother, he is older than Duan Ganzhi in his twenties.
Duan Ganzhi is admired not because of his superb level of case solving, but because of his brute bull energy that is not afraid of heaven and earth, and dares to pull anyone off the horse. In terms of age, Wei Qiang, Sun Fan, and Wang Xing, the three experienced catchers, are all above Duan Ganzhi.
Wang Xing has rich experience in judging cases, and he has a unique talent for grasping details, he saw that there was a warehouse in the yard near the kitchen to store wood, and he went up to investigate it himself, and soon noticed the abnormality.
Du He walked into the firewood room, and carefully observed that it was indeed as Wang Xing said, the firewood room was indeed a little abnormal, and it was well disguised, if it weren't for Wang Xing's keen intuition beyond ordinary people, it would be difficult for ordinary people to find out the subtle changes, and Du He himself was afraid that he would ignore the past.
This is also called people have expertise.
"Dig up!" Du He glanced at the direction of the kitchen, if the murderer was here, Puhui who was hiding in the kitchen could be completely seen.
There were excavation tools in the kitchen, and Wang Xing dug them himself. He has experience in this area, and he is not heavy-handed, in order to protect all the key evidence hidden underground, but he maintains a certain speed. After a while, Wang Xing had already noticed that the top of the hoe had touched the obstacle, and he dug more carefully.
Peeling aside a layer of fine soil, under the cover of fine soil, there was a small foot, a woman's foot.
"Corpses!"
Du He and Duan Ganzhi glanced at each other, and they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
"Another corpse!" Gao Yang's eyes also showed a hint of solemnity, she was originally for fun, but with the appearance of the second corpse, even she became heavy.
"It's actually a serial murder case...... Du He spat out and said: "Dig up the body, ask her identity, and then call her to the autopsy ......" Before you know it, Du He has become the leader of the case, and every order is quickly executed.
The corpse was exhumed intact, and although the dirt stained the corpse's face, it was not difficult to see from the small face that the deceased was a beautiful woman during his lifetime.
Duan Ganzhi analyzed: "If there is no accident, Puhui is because he found the murderer hiding the body, so he was killed. ā
Du He nodded in agreement, glanced around, looked at the marks of the firewood pile on the ground, and knew some of the situation, and said: "The murderer is really calculating, the wood in the warehouse has bottomed out, or in a day or two, a new one will be purchased, judging from the imprints on the ground, thousands of catties of wood will be piled on top of the corpse at that time, and it will be difficult to find this corpse at that time." From this point of view, the murderer must be a person from the temple, but I don't know what kind of hatred he has with this woman, and he wants to kill the killer. ā
"Du Lang, look at the lower abdomen of this corpse...... Changle seemed to have discovered something, his face was a little red, and then it was replaced by a faint anger.
Du He's eyes stayed on the lower abdomen of the corpse, and he also found that the lower abdomen of the corpse was slightly bulging.
The deceased was thin and small, and showed no signs of obesity, could it be......
"One corpse, two lives......"
These words came out of Du He's mouth, and after careful investigation, everyone also discovered this situation, and the surrounding area was cold.
Most people have a kind of calf protection mood, the dead woman and the monk, everyone is dissatisfied with the murderer, but there is no additional emotion. But knowing this, the murderer killed the baby in the woman's arms at the same time, and that anger inevitably came to my heart.
"That damn murderer, let Princess Ben know who did it, and I won't spare him......" Even Gao Yang raised his little fist angrily at this time.
Du He said: "This woman died in the temple, someone should know her, before making a future, let's investigate his identity......"
The female corpse was quickly identified by the monks in the temple.
It can be said that there is not a single monk in the temple who does not know the deceased.
She is a frequent visitor to Hongfu Temple, and like the profiteer Kong Xiu, she is a big customer with a lot of money.
Every month, he would come to Hongfukuji Temple to stay for a few days, saying that he was praying for the blessing of his family.
Not many people know her real name, but they know that his name is Mrs. Nan, and he is the concubine of Nan Hong, a famous merchant in Chang'an City.
"Her husband's surname is Nan?"
Du He and Duan Ganzhi glanced at each other.
