Chapter 128 - Iron nails behind the skull

A pale, bloodless palm rested stiffly against the transparent glass cover.

It's just that it has begun to swell because it has been blistered for too long, and the shape is a little weird.

Other than that, the rest of the body is submerged in a dark red liquid.

Seeing this scene, Chen Xu and Shen Yue both frowned in unison.

is not only frowning at the tragic scene in front of him, but also feeling inexplicably absurd for Lao Wang's precise encounter.

There really are people who are so unlucky!

Chen Xu opened the glass lid of the freezer, looked at the strange-colored liquid, and asked,

"Forensic Doctor Shen, the color of this blood is wrong."

"It's true, there is not so much blood in a person's body, it seems that there should be other fluids added." Shen Yue stepped forward.

"When I was chatting with the boss downstairs just now, he mentioned that the electricity in this area was out for a day and a night due to a malfunction, so here is due to the power outage causing the ice in the freezer to melt, and the glass lid was broken due to the expansion of the liquid freezing volume during the previous freezing process, so the liquid overflowed after the ice melted, and then penetrated the old floor after a night to reach the bottom layer."

Chen Xu analyzed the situation at the scene, and while he spoke, he pressed the light switch in the kitchen with gloves on, but there was no response.

It seems that a previous fault caused a short circuit in the house's wiring, and even though power has been restored in other areas, there is still no power in this house.

All of this went wrong and led to the discovery of this murder.

And Lao Wang also sat in that position so coincidentally, and was dripping with the liquid that penetrated the floor.

Bad luck to the evil gate.

"The palm of the hand is petite as a whole, and even if it is swollen, it is not the size of an ordinary adult man's palm, so it should be a woman." Shen Yue analyzed.

"According to the information provided by the boss, the residents are a man and a woman." Chen Xu nodded.

So the suspicion that the man committed the crime is very high.

In a wife's murder, the husband is always the first suspect.

"Could this be the first crime scene?" Chen Xu glanced around.

The living room is not large, and this kitchen is even more cramped.

There are no signs of fighting around, and the furnishings are neat and unusual.

Apart from......

on the floor.

Chen Xu took a few steps forward, squatted down, and looked at the ground.

The floor is an ordinary cement floor, there is no tiling, so the waterproofness is very poor, and it penetrates directly into the bottom overnight.

The liquid that spilled out of the freezer basically gathered in the corners, and the middle position was clean, but there were many splash-like black marks on the floor in front of Chen Xu, and the color was a little lighter, probably scrubbed, but the traces could still be seen.

As a more experienced criminal policeman, Chen Xu instantly guessed that this was bloodstains.

Of course, what it is, it has to be tested to reach an accurate conclusion.

"Forensic Doctor Shen, I'll leave it to you."

"Okay."

The space was cramped, and in order to make way for Shen Yue and her assistant, Chen Xu walked out of the kitchen.

Although there were blood stains on the ground, there were no traces of a fight around, so the kitchen should not be the scene of the first crime, but it was basically certain that it was the scene of the corpse disposal.

"Did you find anything in the bedroom?" Chen Xu asked the criminal police who were inspecting in other places.

"Team Chen, there are no traces of a fight, and the items in the room are very neat."

All neat?

Chen Xu felt very puzzled, so he walked into the bedroom.

Criminal scene investigation is a science, also known as crime scene investigation.

It is the on-the-spot investigation and investigation of the premises, objects, persons, corpses, and other physical evidence left behind by the crime in order to ascertain the facts of the case, judge the nature of the case, and provide clues and evidence for solving the case, in accordance with the provisions of the Criminal Procedure Law, and by using scientific and technological means and methods of investigation and visits.

The on-site personnel are professional, so there are no low-level mistakes.

After entering the door, Chen Xu found that the objects in the bedroom were indeed neatly placed, and there were no obvious signs of a fight anywhere.

Reorganized?

"Every corner has been checked, and no traces have been left."

Criminal police member Lao Zhang said,

"But there are fewer men in the closet."

"Huh?"

The wardrobe next to it was opened, but the shelves with men's clothes were much empty.

Absconded with your luggage?

The possibilities are high.

"Have you found the tenant's information?" Chen Xu asked.

This kind of most basic thing, he didn't deliberately order.

"Found it, Team Chen." Xiao Li walked up, and the ID card information on his mobile phone was called up from the public security system.

The tenant's name is Zhu Xiaodong, 29 years old, married, and his wife, Yang Liping, 28 years old, and the two live in this house together.

The deceased is most likely his wife Yang Liping, and her husband is missing, so Zhu Xiaodong's suspicion of committing the crime is already very great.

Chen Xu walked out of the bedroom and returned to the kitchen.

"After surveying the rest of the place, let's pump out all the water in the freezer."

"Okay, Team Chen."

After Dr. Shen and his assistant surveyed the rest of the scene, Chen Xu contacted the fire department to get a small pumping machine, pumped out all the liquids in the freezer, and collected them in containers.

These liquids cannot be discharged directly into the sewer, they must be brought back for sampling and testing, and then they must be harmless.

As the dark red liquid in the freezer was pumped out, the corpse was gradually exposed to everyone.

The freezer wasn't too big, so the corpse was curled up inside, face up.

The deceased was dressed in pajamas and covered with many towels. The weather is hot, the liquid has deteriorated and stinks, and the corpse is swollen and white under the liquid soaking, and the deceased looks like Yang Liping is undoubted.

"Go and check Zhu Xiaodong's whereabouts immediately, there is a great possibility that he committed the crime. Contact the landlord and Zhu Xiaodong's family, colleagues and friends, and ask Zhu Xiaodong and his wife when they last contacted them, and if there is any update on Zhu Xiaodong. ”

"Yes, Team Chen."

"Take the freezer back with this liquid, leave two more people, and scrutinize the rental house again, and don't leave any corners unturned."

"Yes!"

Pick up the lid and close the freezer.

"Lao Zhang, take a hand."

"Okay."

"Team Chen, this has disposable protective clothing." Shen Yue's assistant handed him the things.

The two men put on protective suits and carried the freezer out of the kitchen together, while the person behind them carried the container with the liquid.

The crowd did not stop, carrying things all the way downstairs.

The surroundings had been emptied, but the boss and Lao Wang were still here, and Chen Xu carried the freezer to the car.

"Ouch! This, this, this is ......"

Watching the police comrade carry the bloodstained freezer down, the boss was shocked, could there really be a dead person?

"Lao Wang, you ......" The boss looked at everything around him dumbfounded, and then a sense of fear began to envelop his heart.

Dead!

Who died?

Which one is that young couple?

Either way, the boss was scared.

Just one floor away!

The blood also seeped the floor and landed in his shop!

No disaster!

Where have ordinary people seen any murder scenes, at most they have seen them in TV dramas, but in reality they are not so easy to encounter.

Once encountered, as now, the boss is nothing but fear or fear.

Lao Wang on the side was already a little accustomed to it, and a faint sadness surged into his heart.

Why!

Why it's me every time!

Oh my God, why are you doing this to me......

Lao Wang wanted to cry without tears.

After Chen Xu moved the freezer to the car, he took off the stained protective clothing and came to the store.

Looking at Lao Wang, who looked loveless, Chen Xu couldn't help but feel a deep sympathy in his heart.

"Old Wang......" Chen Xu suddenly didn't know how to persuade him.

"Comrade, I don't know anything, I'm just here for breakfast! It's just dripping in my face......"

Lao Wang said with a sad face,

"I hate to admit it, but it's all too familiar to me! I can't help it, I can only call the police......"

Lao Wang, who had experienced a huge trauma in his heart, finally calmed down, happily met the eldest sister, and regained the position of the king of square dances, but the nightmare came again the next morning.

"Comrade, I testify about this." The boss said.

“...... Have a good rest, do you want to go to the hospital? Chen Xu couldn't bear to let him make a record anymore, he had endured too many things that he shouldn't have to bear, and at the same time, because there was no great need.

But the boss, as a neighbor who goes up and down the stairs, will definitely inquire, but it is not Chen Xu who does this, and he will instruct the other team members to follow up later.

The top priority is to bring the body back for an autopsy and find out Zhu Xiaodong's whereabouts.

"No, no, you guys go get busy." Lao Wang waved his hand weakly.

"Okay, I'll arrange for the psychiatrist from before to do psychological counseling for you later."

"Alas, thank you, you go get busy."

"Okay, I'll go first, boss, please take care of Lao Wang, and wait to cooperate with our comrades to do the investigation."

"Okay, don't worry, comrade." The boss agreed.

"Thank you."

Chen Xu left directly, and after telling Xiao Li to talk to the boss, he got in the car and returned to the criminal police team.

......

After leading the team back to the criminal police team, the freezer was carried to the forensic office.

The body was carried out of the freezer, leaving some of the previous towels.

"These towels are supposed to be used to wipe down the blood stains in the kitchen." Shen Yue took a towel with gloves and observed it carefully.

"What's that?" Chen Xu pointed to something in the corner of the freezer.

Shen Yue picked up the slender stick of about ten centimeters with tweezers.

"Look at the weight and feel metal."

"Iron nails?" Chen Xu asked.

"It should be."

The nails were a dark rusty color, and they also had something red and white dyed black, and they were picked up to correspond to the corpse's head.

"Nailed to the back of the head?" Chen Xu asked with a frown.

"It should be."

"Will it be a fatal injury?"

"This will not be determined until after my autopsy, but there is an obvious strangulation mark on the neck of the corpse, although it has been blistered for a long time, but the facial skin and ocular conjunctiva have spotted hemorrhage, so it is likely to be a mechanical suffocation death."

"Well, then you're busy, hard work."

"It should."

Shen Yue was going to perform an autopsy, and Chen Xu left the forensic office to investigate the biggest suspect in the case, Zhu Xiaodong.
