(a)

Wang Kai led the police to a deserted area overgrown with weeds on the outskirts.

He pointed to the middle spot and said, "The body is buried under here." ”

Zhao Gang turned his head to the policeman next to him and said, "Dig it!" ”

Soon, a woman's body was exhumed.

"This is Xiaomei." Wang Kai said to Zhao Gang.

Zhao Gang looked at the corpse and said to Qin Tian, "Take it back!" ”

The group quickly returned to the police station.

Zhao Gang sat at his desk sorting out the materials, and Qin Tian sat down next to him.

"The case has finally come to light." Qin Tian sighed.

"Is the autopsy report out?" Zhao Gang asked Qin Tian.

"Not yet. However, Dr. Zhang said that the results should be available soon. Qin Tian replied.

"Tell Forensic Doctor Zhang and tell me as soon as the results come out."

"Don't worry, I told him a long time ago. Now Wang Kai has explained everything, and Anne has been arrested. What else are you worried about? ”

"Isn't the autopsy report still out yet?"

"Didn't Wang Kai already explain how Anne killed Xiaomei by mistake? Anne herself has already admitted it! Do you still have any questions? ”

"Let's wait until the autopsy report comes out!" Zhao Gang glanced at Qin Tian, "The case is not officially over yet. ”

"Alright! You're just a well-behaved person. We must see the final result. ”

"Yes, we also need to have a final report to close the case!"

"Okay." Zhao Gang looked at his watch, "I guess the result should be out soon!" ”

At this moment, Forensic Doctor Zhang appeared in Zhao Gang's office with an autopsy report.

"Forensic Doctor Zhang, are the results out?" Zhao Gang saw that it was Forensic Doctor Zhang who came, and hurriedly stood up to greet him.

"It's out. Over here. With that, she handed Zhao Gang an autopsy report.

Zhao Gang flipped over, and his face changed suddenly.

Pointing to the conclusion of the autopsy report, he asked, "What does this mean?" ”

"That's what I want to tell you. We did find a nail in the back of the deceased's head. However, this is not the direct cause of the death of the deceased. An autopsy confirmed that the deceased had died of asphyxiation. ”

"Suffocated?"

"That's right."

"Strangled to death?"

"No, there are no obvious strangulation marks on the neck of the deceased, and he should not have been strangled to death. And the skin around her mouth and nose has obvious traces of compression, so it should be suffocation caused by someone covering her mouth and nose with her hands. ”

Zhao Gang and Qin Tian were both speechless by Forensic Zhang's words.

After a while, Zhao just came to his senses and asked, "Are there any other characteristics on the deceased?" Or whether there is skin tissue left behind the murderer and so on. ”

"Nope. However, the skin tissue we extracted from the fingernails of the headless female corpse has results, and it belongs to the newly discovered corpse. ”

"You're saying that this guy killed the guy in the freezer?"

"I'm just saying that the skin tissue extracted belongs to this corpse, not that this person killed her."

"Well, then, what about the nail? Was fatal injury inflicted on the deceased? ”

"The nail was stuck in the back of the head. However, no fatal injuries were caused, only bleeding, and the deceased may have fallen into a coma. ”

"So, it's possible that the deceased was in a coma for a while and then woke up?"

"It's possible. In short, the deceased did not die from injuries caused by nails, but from suffocation. ”

"Okay, I got it. Thank you! ”

"You're welcome! If it's okay, I'll go first! ”

"Okay."

Zhao Gang sent Forensic Doctor Zhang to the door, and then returned to his desk to look at the autopsy report.

"It seems that someone is hiding something from us." Zhao Gang said to Qin Tian.

"Do you mean Wang Kai, or Annie?"

Judging from the confessions of the two of them, what they described in Xiaomei's room was basically the same, and there was no problem. However, if what they said was true, then Xiaomei should have died of that nail. However, Dr. Zhang said that the nail did not cause fatal injuries. ”

"The nail just caused Xiaomei to fall into a coma. And the real cause of Xiaomei's death was suffocation. So, someone must be lying to them. ”

"That's right. Either one of them is lying, or the two of them are lying together. So, who exactly is lying? Zhao Gang looked at Qin Tian and asked.

"I don't think it's Anne. Judging from Anne's confession, she has admitted that she accidentally hit Mei's head against the wall and caused her death. This means that she has confessed her guilt. There's no need for her to hide it anymore! Qin Tian said.

She just admitted that she accidentally hit Xiaomei's head against the wall. In this case, it is just manslaughter. However, if she admits that she covered her mouth and nose after Xiaomei woke up, causing her to suffocate to death, then this is tantamount to intentional homicide. Zhao Gang said.

"You mean, Anne had to admit to manslaughter as a last resort in order to escape the crime of intentional homicide?" Qin Tian said.

"I'm just saying it's possible." Zhao Gang said.

"If that's really the case, then Wang Kai doesn't know?" Qin Tian asked.

"It can only be shown that when Anne killed Xiaomei, Wang Kai was not at the scene." Zhao Gang said.

"Are you saying that during the time when Wang Kai went to borrow the car, Anne returned to the rental house to clean up the site alone, and before Wang Kai returned, Xiaomei had already woken up. It was at this time that Anne killed her? Qin Tian asked.

"It's possible. However, it is also possible that Wang Kai. When Wang Kai was transporting Xiaomei's body to throw the body, Xiaomei woke up on the way, and then Wang Kai killed her again. Zhao Gang said.

"It's a pity that the dashcam we got back didn't have anything useful in it." Qin Tian sighed.

"Although we thought that there were no useful clues in the dashcam, it was not the reason for our previous speculation." Zhao Gang looked at Qin Tian thoughtfully.

"What do you mean?" Qin Tian looked puzzled.

"When we looked at the dashcam contents, it really didn't have the contents of the 13th that we wanted. We thought it was covered by the content behind, but did you notice that this is not the case at all? I took a look, and that memory card has a lot of capacity and still has a lot of unused space. And the video inside started on the 16th, that is, after Wang Kai returned the car. ”

"Mean they replaced the memory card?"

"That's right. They knew we would definitely check the dashcam, so they replaced it with a new memory card just to be on the safe side. Zhao Gang said.

"Could it be that it was Wang Kai who killed Xiaomei? In the process of Wang Kai's transportation of the body, Xiaomei wakes up, and then Wang Kai kills her. In order to destroy the evidence, he replaced the dashcam's memory card. Qin Tian analyzed.

"Not necessarily. Wang Kai replaced the memory card not necessarily to cover up his killing of Xiaomei, but also to prevent us from finding out where he dumped his body. Zhao Gang said.

"At the end of the day, we still can't be sure who killed Xiaomei. Although both of them are suspicious, I still think that it is more likely that Anne killed Xiaomei. Qin Tian said.

"Why?" Zhao Gang asked.

"Because Xiaomei has shared the same bed with Wang Kai after all. As a man, I don't think Wang Kai will kill Xiaomei with his own hands. On the contrary, Annie's hatred for Xiaomei should be even greater. Qin Tian thought for a moment and then said, "However, maybe, sometimes, people will lose their minds when they are nervous. What if Wang Kai was afraid that Xiaomei would expose their crimes, and chose to kill Xiaomei! ”

"Don't forget, if Xiaomei really woke up on the way to dump the corpse, it means that she has been in a coma before. In this case, she was unaware of what had happened before. In other words, she didn't know about Ye Qin's death. It should be said that she didn't know that there was such a person as Ye Qin. Zhao Gang said.

"You have a point. Since she didn't know anything, Wang Kai had no reason to put her to death, let alone the woman she used to be. Qin Tian said, "But, how could there be Xiaomei's skin tissue left between Ye Qin's fingernails?" Qin Tian was very puzzled by this.

"According to their confessions, Ye Qin once turned Xiaomei and had physical contact with Xiaomei, perhaps, he was accidentally left behind at that time." Zhao Gang guessed.

"Is it possible that Xiaomei killed Ye Qin?" Qin Tian asked.

"It's unlikely. Xiaomei has no reason to kill Ye Qin. What's more, at that time, Xiaomei had already fainted, and it was impossible for her to kill Ye Qin. Zhao Gang said.

"Yes. No matter how you want to kill Ye Qin, it can't be Xiaomei. It could only be Wang Kai or Annie. However, I always felt that Anne was more suspicious. ”

"These are just our guesses. Between Wang Kai and Xiaomei, after all, one has committed rape and the other has committed extortion, and this inexplicable relationship and entanglement between the two of them will also give Wang Kai a motive to kill her. Zhao Gang said.

"You seem to have a point! Wang Kai is likely to take this opportunity to cut through the mess quickly. As long as Xiaomei dies, no one will know about these things. He doesn't have to have any entanglements with Xiaomei anymore. Qin Tian said.

Therefore, both Anne and Wang Kai have a motive to kill Xiaomei. As for who it is, I don't know. Zhao Gang said.

"Then, how do you know who killed Xiaomei?" Qin Tian asked.

"Looks like we're going to need to interrogate both of them again." Zhao Gang said.

(b)

In the interrogation room, Zhao Gang sat opposite Wang Kai again.

"Do you regret killing Xiaomei?" Zhao Gang asked Wang Kai.

"I've already said that we didn't mean to kill her. It was a complete accident. Wang Kai looked at Zhao Gang and said.

"So, didn't you ever want her to die?" Zhao Gang asked again.

"I'll admit that we do have some ties to do with each other. However, there was no need for me to kill her. ”

"What if she hadn't died?"

"If she hadn't died, there wouldn't have been what happened later."

"If she hadn't died, would you have chosen to save her and take her to the hospital?"

"If she hadn't died, I'd have saved her. Unfortunately, she is dead. ”

"It's a pity — she wasn't dead." Zhao Gang looked at Wang Kai and said word by word.

"What do you say? ......" Wang Kai stared at Zhao Gang, he didn't believe his ears.

"I said that Xiaomei was not dead at that time. If you take her to the hospital, you can save her. ”

"How is that possible? She was no longer breathing. ”

"She's just unconscious."

Wang Kai seemed to suddenly realize something, and asked, "What do you mean?" You said she wasn't dead at the time, how do you know? ”

"Because the forensic doctor has examined it, Xiaomei died of suffocation."

"Suffocation?" Wang Kai's eyes instantly lost their light, and he sighed, "Could it be that I buried her alive?" ”

"Don't you know that Xiaomei didn't die at the time?"

"I don't know. I thought she was dead. She never woke up when I buried her, so I always thought she was dead. ”

"The truth is, she wasn't dead at the time."

"It's all my fault, I buried her alive! ......" Wang Kai said, regretting.

"No, she was buried after she died."

"What do you mean? You say she's dead, you say she's not dead, what the hell is going on? ”

"According to the forensic examination, the deceased died of suffocation caused by someone covering his mouth and nose with his hands. When she was buried, she was already dead. You didn't bury her alive. ”

"What do you say? How is this possible? Wang Kai kept shaking his head, "She obviously died by hitting her head against the wall, how could she have died of suffocation?" ”

"So, some of you are lying." Zhao Gang stared at Wang Kai.

Wang Kai didn't seem to care about Zhao Gang's eyes, he thought about what happened that day, and asked, "Is Xiaomei really killed by someone covering her mouth and nose?" ”

"Yes."

Wang Kai smacked the table with his hand and said, "This woman is too ruthless. ”

"Who are you talking about?"

"Who else but Anne."

"You mean, Anne killed Mei?"

"Who else but her."

"If it was really Annie who killed Xiaomei, then why don't you know?"

"I borrowed the car. At that time, Anne came back alone to clean up the scene, and she must have killed Xiaomei while I was away. ”

"She's a girl, can she have the courage to kill someone?"

"She doesn't dare? She looks soft and weak, but she is more ruthless than anyone else. ”

"What do you mean?" Zhao Gang asked.

Wang Kai clenched his hands, lowered his head, thought for a while, and said, "The matter of splitting the corpse was actually done by her. ”

Zhao Gang and Qin Tian were both taken aback. Zhao Gang asked: "You mean, the matter of cutting off the head of the corpse?" ”

"Yes."

"However, as you said before, you did the dismemberment."

"Yes, I did, because that's what we agreed upon."

"You mean, you're taking the blame for Anne?"

"I felt ashamed of her. That's why I want to take the blame for her. ”

"Then why do you have to say it now?"

"Because I didn't know at the time that she killed Xiaomei."

"In other words, you never knew that Xiaomei was not actually dead at that time."

"Yes. At the time, I just wanted to bury the two of them. However, unexpectedly, when I borrowed the car and returned to the community, Anne had already disposed of the body. ”

"What does it mean that the body has been disposed of?"

"It's that she's cut off the head of the woman upstairs. It scared me. I didn't expect that she would have such courage alone. ”

"Did she say why she wanted to separate the head from the corpse? And why put the corpse in the refrigerator? ”

"Yes. She said that she separated the head because she did not want the police to find out the identity of the deceased so quickly. ”

"Then why put the corpse in the freezer again?"

"Because freezing can be kept longer."

"I mean, why put her body in the refrigerator if you don't want the police to find out who she is?"

"I asked her. She said that because we want to create the illusion that Xiaomei absconded after murder, someone must find the body, and we must combine various phenomena to lock the suspicion on Xiaomei. ”

"What's the matter with Xiaomei's skin tissue found between the fingernails of the headless female corpse?"

"It was Anne who wanted to blame Xiaomei and deliberately grabbed Xiaomei with that girl's hand."

So, Anne changed into Xiaomei's clothes, walked out of the community, and appeared in the surveillance video. Since then, Xiaomei has not appeared again. In this way, it is easy to think that she is absconding in fear of crime. ”

"That's right."

"Looks like Anne is very thoughtful!"

"I didn't expect her to take that into account. When I saw that she had cut off the corpse's head, my back was numb. I didn't expect her to do such a cruel thing. ”

"If what you say is true. That's when Anne killed Xiaomei? ”

"If what you say is true, Xiaomei was really covered to death after waking up, then it must be Anne. Because I always thought that Xiaomei was dead, I pulled the body out and buried it directly, and I didn't see Xiaomei wake up during the period. ”

"We'll find out if what you're saying is true or not. Don't forget, Ah Fang's car is equipped with a dash cam. Zhao Gang looked at Wang Kai and said.

"Go and check, I'm telling the truth. However, it is useless to check the dash cam. Wang Kai said with certainty.

"Why?" Zhao Gang asked.

"The dashcam's memory card has been replaced by me. You can't find anything. ”

Zhao Gang glanced at Qin Tian, and sure enough, it was the same as they had guessed before.

Then, Zhao Gang looked at Wang Kai again and asked, "Why are you doing this?" ”

"It's Annie. After I came back from burying the body, she took off the dashcam's memory card and threw it away, saying that she was afraid of leaving any traces. I thought she had a point, so I didn't say anything. ”

"And where is the memory card you replaced?"

"It's ruined."

"In other words, what you said, we can't confirm it? So how do we know if you're lying? ”

"I can't confirm it. Because the only thing that can prove that I didn't kill Xiaomei is the dash cam. However, it has been ruined by Anne. Now that I think about it, it's scary, maybe Anne just wanted to put all the blame on me! ”

"Why do you say that?"

"Because...... I didn't kill people at all. The girl upstairs was killed by Anne. ”
