Chapter 8: Who She Is
The couple looks like they are in their fifties, but they are very different from Lin Zhen originally captured in the surveillance video in terms of dressing style, they look quite low-key, and they are not full of eye-catching logos of famous brands.
"What's going on? Could there be any misunderstanding here? After getting into the car, Lin Zhen's father asked cautiously, his voice sounded unnatural, and his hand was grabbed by his wife, clutched to death.
Kang Ge reported a room number while driving: "This is your house, right?" ”
"Yes, yes, it's our house, it's our house!"
"This house is the scene of the crime, and the appearance of the deceased found at the scene matches your daughter Lin Zhen, and there is also her personal identity document at home, so we need to find the family to come over, identify it, and go through the formalities."
Although Kang Ge said so, but in the case of being killed in his own home, it is basically just a matter of routine process to ask the family to identify the body.
"No, no, no!" Lin Zhen's mother spoke eagerly on the side, "Although our family Zhenzhen is a little playful, she is very measured, except for spending money a little bit since she was a child, she will never cause trouble outside, and she will not cause so much trouble for herself!" There must be some misunderstanding here, you must be mistaken! ”
Kang Ge and Yan Xue did not speak, and it was not uncommon for the victims' families to be unable to accept the reality at the first time and unwilling to believe that they had lost their loved ones.
Along the way after that, Lin Zhen's parents didn't speak again, judging from their expressions, they didn't believe much in their previous words, so they were very nervous, and the expressions on their faces had become wooden and stiff.
Considering their tense nerves, Kang Ge and Yan Xue directly took the two people to the forensic doctor to identify the body, this time the victim was fatally injured in the back of the head, so the overall look was relatively peaceful, and the visual impact was not great.
It's just that for the closest relatives, that kind of heavy blow is still inevitable.
When they got there, Lin Zhen's parents were extremely nervous and went to identify the body, Yan Xue and Kang Ge were mentally prepared, waiting for the moment when these two people had an emotional breakdown, but the development of things was a little different from what they expected.
Lin Zhen's mother was pale, trembling and approached to look at the cold female corpse, at first she almost didn't dare to open her eyes to let herself see clearly, and then finally mustered up the courage to take a closer look, but did not quickly look away, but looked more and more carefully, and even leaned forward again, leaning down to see more carefully.
Lin Zhen's father thought that his wife was stimulated, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly reached out to hold her, trying to stop her movements, but Lin Zhen's mother tore his hand away, and turned her head to look at her husband with a strange expression, looked at the female corpse, and then looked at Yan Xue and them.
"I ...... Can you reach out and touch her? She pointed to the corpse on the morgue and asked Yan Xue and Kang Ge.
They really hadn't encountered such a request much, and Kang Ge and Yan Xue were also a little blindsided all of a sudden.
After receiving permission, Lin Zhen's mother cautiously approached a little closer, put on the gloves handed to her by the forensic doctor, and then reached out tremblingly, pinched the deceased's chin gently, and carefully touched the tip of the deceased's nose and ears with her hand a few times.
I could feel that she was also bold when she was doing this, and the whole person was very, very nervous, but when she carefully touched a few places on the deceased's face, she took a step back and let out a long breath.
"This person is not our treasure." Her voice was still a little trembling, but her tone was indeed very firm, and when she looked at Kang Ge and Yan Xue, there was still a little excitement in her eyes.
"Not? How did you know for sure? Yan Xue was a little surprised to see that she was so sure.
"Our Zhenzhen's nose and chin have moved!" Lin Zhen's mother found out that the deceased was not her daughter, and her joy couldn't help but overflow, "Zhenzhen has always felt that the tip of her nose is not good-looking, and then her chin is a little short, and she has been telling me that she wants to do it, the whole thing, I was reluctant at first, and then I thought about it, I usually don't spend much time with her, in case I don't agree here, people over there take the money and secretly go to get it, find an informal kind of clinic, and then leave any sequelae in the future, just like the TV show, then it's over!"
Later, I inquired about a reliable plastic surgery hospital, and accompanied her to do the chin and nose, the chin is an imported prosthesis, and it is said that there will be no problems for many years, and it is very natural, and I can't feel it without careful touching.
The nose is filled with autologous cartilage taken from her ears, which is not visible on the surface, but if you touch it carefully, you can still feel it different, so I touched it just now, although this person looks really similar to our children, but she is definitely not Zhenzhen! ”
"What does Lin Zhen look like?" Kang Ge asked the forensic doctor to examine the deceased's face again and asked Lin Zhen's mother.
"I have her previous photos in my phone, I'll show you later!" Lin Zhen's mother hurriedly took out her mobile phone from her pocket, eager to prove that the deceased was really not her daughter, "Oh! You see! Doesn't it look like it at all? ”
Kang Ge took her mobile phone and looked at the photo above, the faces of the people and the deceased in the photos are really obviously different, although Lin Zhen's mother mentioned some small facial plastic surgeries, but the effects came together, but it really changed Lin Zhen's appearance directly to a different style, and the appearance after plastic surgery is highly similar to the deceased on the morgue.
"This person really looks like our family Zhenzhen after surgery, but I'm sure she is not our family Zhenzhen!" Lin Zhen's mother once again emphasized her conclusion with great certainty, and looked at the forensic doctor with anticipation.
Forensic Doctor Zhang also reconfirmed all the places she had just checked, especially the position of the chin, and after the examination, he nodded to Kang Ge and them: "The deceased in this case has indeed not had any facial plastic surgery, if the ear cartilage is removed, there should be an inconspicuous scar on the front side of the ear, which is not easy to see in daily life, and it will definitely not escape our eyes if it is examined, let alone the prosthesis in the chin."
If the family's statement about plastic surgery is accurate, then the identity of the deceased may really need to be reconfirmed, but for rigorous considerations, I suggest that it is better to do a DNA comparison. ”
"Okay, okay! We have no opinion! This person is definitely not our family treasure, I am 100% sure! So you can check it as much as you want! The more you confirm I, the more grounded I become! Absolutely no opinion at all! You can arrange it! Lin Zhen's mother immediately expressed a very positive attitude, her mental state now is completely different from when she came.
On the side, Lin Zhen's father was also busy expressing his willingness to cooperate with the work, as long as his daughter was safe and sound, he could do anything.
So under the arrangement of Forensic Doctor Zhang, Kang Ge and Yan Xue hurriedly took them to extract DNA samples, and after processing these, they were brought back to the criminal police team, after all, even if the deceased was not Lin Zhen herself, then such a young girl who was highly similar to Lin Zhen in appearance and of a similar age died in Lin Zhen's home, and this matter is still weird.
"When was the last time you saw Lin Zhen?" Yan Xue asked, seeing Lin Zhen's father holding his mobile phone and wanting to speak, he hurriedly added, "I mean that if you really see each other face-to-face, it doesn't count to chat with mobile phone video." ”
The deceased and Lin Zhen's appearance are so similar, even Lin Zhen's parents failed to find the abnormality at the first time when they first saw the corpse, if it weren't for Lin Zhen's mother who didn't want to believe the news of her daughter's murder, plus Lin Zhen had plastic surgery, it would have really mistaken the identity of the deceased.
You must know that close contact makes it easier to notice the difference in details, but if you only make a video call through your mobile phone, external factors such as video effects, makeup, and so on are likely to interfere with the judgment of the other party.
Her addition was really right, Lin Zhen's father had already opened his mouth, and paused again: "Ouch...... Face-to-face with that...... That's a long time! The last time we met was during the Spring Festival, when our family of three went out to travel and play abroad, otherwise we were usually busy all year round, and we didn't have time to have fun with our children.
After Chinese New Year...... We really haven't seen each other all the time, it's just that Zhenzhen asks me for money when she lacks something or something, she doesn't ask me for it and I give it regularly, and when she and her mother are fine, they even have a video, chat or something. ”
"What is the general frequency of video chat?" Kang Ge asked Lin Zhen's mother.
"It's hard to say, sometimes this child is suddenly very coquettish, maybe we can both open videos twice a day, sometimes she patronizes and plays, or our business is busy, it really doesn't have energy, it's not strange not to video once a week or two." Lin Zhen's mother replied that she had already relaxed, but when she heard Kang Ge ask, she suddenly became nervous again, "Do you have her phone number?" Didn't call her? Why don't I take a look? ”
"No, you can see if this is Lin Zhen's mobile phone." Kango had already handed over the cell phone he had brought back from the scene.
Lin Zhen's mother took it and looked at it, and quickly confirmed that it was Lin Zhen's mobile phone.
"How many mobile phones does Lin Zhen have?" Kango asked.
"It's just such a one, she just has a mobile phone card, the mobile phone is changed left and right, but it has been changed for many young and old, but the card is just this one, there is no other number!
What's going on! That person is definitely not our Zhenzhen, but how did she get to our house? Where did we Zhenzhen go? Ouch, why am I panicking again! ”
Lin Zhen's mother suddenly realized that her daughter was still in a state of disconnection, and immediately regained her tension from the previous brief relaxation.
At this time, Lin Zhen's father was still relatively calm, he thought about it, and said to his wife: "Don't you have the phone numbers of Zhenzhen's friends who usually play together?" Don't be too scared, call those children and ask, when we couldn't find Zhenzhen before, didn't those children know where Zhenzhen was! ”
"Yes, yes, yes! You have a point! Then I'll call! Lin Zhen's mother hurriedly got up and went to the side to make a phone call.
"Do you usually know about Lin Zhen's friendship?" Yan Xue asked Lin Zhen's father.
Although there is a new change in the identity of the deceased in the case now, from an objective point of view, it is definitely not a coincidence that the deceased, whose identity cannot be determined, will appear in the Lin family's mansion, which must have something to do with Lin Zhen himself, so the top priority is to find Lin Zhen himself, before that, first learn about Lin Zhen's parents about Lin Zhen's person, and have a rough grasp of her, which is also very necessary.
"I know a little bit," Lin Zhen's father seemed a little lacking in confidence when answering this question, "She has always played well since she was a child, and we know so many, but our family Zhenzhen is too outgoing, very lively, and likes to make friends, so she has a lot of friends, and she has made a group of new friends every once in a while."
The two of us are usually busy with business, we are not as big as other people's big bosses, there are special people in charge of everything, people can travel in the mountains and rivers, go abroad for vacation, fly planes and yachts.
We can't, we have to keep an eye on everything, and we can't get a few days of special leisure all year round, so we usually don't ask too much about the child's friends, as long as she is happy.
Zhenzhen still gives us peace of mind in this regard, and she hasn't done anything out of the ordinary, so we can trust her, she is also twenty-four years old, and she doesn't like us to stare at her for everything, and we understand. ”
"So usually you are all running a business in other places, and Lin Zhen is the only one living alone?"
"Yes, originally our business was here, but then there was policy support for our industry, so we simply moved over, when Zhenzhen was still in high school, she said that her friends were here, and she didn't want to go with us, we thought about it, don't go if you don't go, we don't have time to accompany her, her friends are not in front of her, and she may not be happy if she is lonely, so she stayed here and hired a nanny to take care of her.
Later, she didn't do well in the university entrance exam, so she went to a local school in W City to mess around, we also know that she is not a student of reading, and she is not forced in this regard, as long as she is happy and does not break the law and commit crimes, she will do whatever she likes! ”
