Chapter Twenty-Three: Murder by a Knife

Zhao Yuguo was very obedient when he got home and didn't go anywhere. He went to bed after dark, because his own heart was always unsteady, and he hoped that the damn night would pass quickly.

The night is getting darker and quieter, and the world is like a sunken ship.

In the dark, Zhao Yuguo woke up suddenly, opened his eyes in a daze, and found a person sitting next to the bed, unable to see his appearance or face clearly.

This person didn't move at all, the air seemed to be frozen, and at this time, Zhao Yunguo didn't even dare to breathe, so he let the weird person sit at the head of his bed.

Zhao Yuguo originally planned to spend it like this until dawn, but time seemed to stop from this moment.

Zhao Yuguo thought of the mobile phone next to his pillow, so he had the courage to gently take the mobile phone into the quilt, and then turned on the flashlight on the mobile phone at a very slow speed.

The flashlight shone on the black shadow next to the bed, the black shadow did not disappear, but gradually revealed its face, gray hair, wrinkles crawled all over the cheeks, and the eyes were empty, Zhao Yuguo actually recognized this person, this person is Zhao Yuguo's grandmother who has been dead for many years, Zhao Yuguo quickly put his head into the quilt after reading it, glanced at the mobile phone, the time on the mobile phone was 00:00, at this time Zhao Yuguo's heart had jumped to his throat, he quickly called the police......

After reporting to the police, Zhao Yuguo secretly showed his head again, and saw that the person next to the bed was no longer there. This made Zhao Yuguo feel relieved, his sweat-soaked body was paralyzed at once, and just when he was paralyzed, he looked up and saw a face that seemed to be wrinkled, and a pair of dry eyes were staring at him.

Zhao Yuguo suddenly woke up from his sleep, and a man in black was sitting next to the bed.

The man in black said: Awake? Let's sleep again.

The man in black left, and Zhao Yuguo also stopped breathing.

After receiving the news, the special case team immediately rushed to the scene, Zhao Yuguo was lying on the bed, there was a knife wound on his neck, and there was no trace of the room being turned over, just a simple murder scene.

Song Wenjia examined the wounds of the deceased and said: The time of death was about four hours, that is, he was killed at about 12 o'clock, and the fatal wound was in the neck, and the knife was fatal.

Li Zhitong said: I have checked the doors and windows and the locks have no traces of picking them open, and the murderer hid in the deceased's house in advance, but I don't know how he got in.

Lin Yunfei said: I checked the deceased's wallet and found that the cash in it was gone, is it possible that the thief burglarized and woke up the owner and then killed him?

Gu Yue said: There is no such possibility, because the deceased's slippers have no traces of movement at all, indicating that the deceased was killed before he got out of bed or was asleep. There is also the murderer who took the money just to cover it up, the watch on the deceased's bedside table was so conspicuous that the murderer didn't take it, do you think, a thief will steal hundreds or thousands of dollars and leave? And thieves don't kill people easily.

Li Zhitong said: I also think that the murderer is covering up something, and this case has a certain connection with the corpse shredding case.

Song Wenjia said: Ma Ke was interrogated at the police station and this case came out, so did Ma Ke get rid of suspicion?

Li Yong said: Lock him up first, and then talk about it then.

Li Zhitong said: Who reported this case to the police?

An entourage police officer said: It was the deceased himself.

Song Zetao said: Yourself? How do I report the crime?

The police officer explained: The deceased dialed the police before he was killed, but the deceased did not speak from beginning to end, and the person who answered the police call heard that something was wrong here, thinking it was a prank, and after reporting, it was verified that the mobile phone number was Zhao Yuguo's, and we rushed over immediately.

Li Yong said unceremoniously: Have you verified it for so long?

The officer was embarrassed and stopped talking.

Li Zhitong broke the embarrassment and said: Let's investigate the cases together, there must be a connection between the two cases.

Li Yong said: Okay, the case will be investigated, and before dawn, we should hurry up and carry out the criminal psychology profile.

After the special case team returned to the police station, they prepared some clue materials and other materials, so they called a meeting of all the police officers.

After everyone arrived, Gu Yue spoke first: The murderer is a man, he is in love with the deceased or has been in love, the murderer killed Li Li's body and put it in a suitcase, and threw the body on a more conspicuous street, this is not to meet his perverted psychological needs, the murderer's heart is very contradictory, and it is very complicated. Therefore, I suspect that the murderer may have a mental illness.

Li Zhitong said: The murderer kills, crushes the corpse, throws the corpse, these are all trying to get rid of the trouble in his hand as soon as possible, it can be seen from the sachet in the suitcase, the murderer has realized that he has a big trouble, he needs to get rid of it as soon as possible, he is entangled, he is also struggling, he can hide in secret, or throw it in the wilderness, but he chose this place with a high chance of being found, not because he wants to satisfy his perverted desires, but he has begun to panic, the murderer has realized that the body is in his hands, One more day of storage, the more dangerous it is.

One word: panic.

Li Yong said: The murderer kills for love, and the killing is for revenge.

The two suspects met the above conditions, one was Zhao Yuguo and the other was Ma Ke, but during Ma Ke's detention, Zhao Huguo was killed, which freed both of them from suspicion.

Song Wenjia said: Is there such a possibility, Ma Ke killed Li Li because of emotional problems, in order to hide the facts of the crime, so he found someone to explain the killing of Zhao Yuguo in advance, and when we investigated Ma Ke and interrogated, another person killed Zhao Yuguo, so that Ma Ke could use the reason of alibi to avoid suspicion.

Li Zhitong said: I also suspect that this person is abnormal, but I have to say that your idea is very bold.

Gu Yue said: What is the reason for you to say this?

Song Wenjia said: I just don't think there will be such a coincidence, the murderer should have enough time to kill the two, but just when Ma Ke was arrested by us, Zhao Yuguo was killed.

Lin Yunfei said: In other words, this Ma Ke still hasn't gotten rid of suspicion, this is smart but mistaken by smart.

Song Wenjia said: No, no, no, this is just a conjecture of mine, and the real situation is not necessarily.

After the meeting, Li Yong arranged a task for everyone, and the general content was to divide the soldiers into two routes, all the way to investigate Ma Ke's interpersonal relationships and Ma Ke's residence. The other way is to investigate, Zhao Hugo was killed.

Gu Yue took the lead in investigating Ma Ke's interpersonal relationships, which was not very smooth, because Ma Ke's friends and colleagues were all engaged in this industry, so there was nothing to say about the police, but there were still a few useful answers.

This person said that Ma Ke has schizophrenia!

Gu Yue and the others went to Ma Ke's residence again, Ma Ke lived in an old-fashioned rental house, which could be described as sparsely populated, because Gu Yue and the others had not seen much people for a long time.

Song Zetao said: Boss Gu, in this kind of place, I don't think anyone will find out if they kill someone.

Lin Yunfei flicked at Song Zetao's head and said: What do you kid think, don't you know that there is a thing called surveillance video?

After Lin Yunfei finished speaking, he pointed to the monitoring probes in several corners.

Song Zetao rubbed his head and smiled: Are you kidding, brother, just kidding.

While talking, the three of them had already arrived at Ma Ke's house.

Song Zetao put on gloves, stepped forward and tried and said: The door is locked, how to find a property?

Lin Yunfei rolled up his sleeves and said: Find a fart property and let me come.

Gu Yue hurriedly stopped and said: Although Ma Ke is currently a criminal suspect, we still have to pay for kicking the door.

Lin Yunfei took out a wire from his pocket and said: Who said I was going to kick the door?

After speaking, Lin Yunfei twisted the wire, inserted it into the lock hole, and opened the door in less than half a minute.

As soon as the door opened, there was a damp and stale smell, and the room was messy, with piles of clothes, hairy instant noodles, a messy dining table, a rusty burglar web with cobwebs, and dust everywhere.

Song Zetao said: Looking at Ma Ke, this kid is dressed up beautifully on the surface, but I didn't expect his home to be like a pig's nest, but it is really out of the mud and not stained!

Lin Yunfei said: Out of the mud without staining, it is a boast, it should be called donkey feces and eggs, and the surface is light.

Gu Yue said: You two come to play, hurry up and see if there is anything suspicious, and let's leave quickly.

Gu Yue saw the medicine taken in Ma Ke's room, took a photo with his mobile phone, and sent it to Song Wenjia.

Song Wenjia's answer was that this was a second-generation antipsychotic drug.

Ma Ke really has a mental illness, and if he is really the murderer, then what kind of sentence will be imposed on him is also a question.

Lin Yunfei said: Whatever, what I want most now is to find evidence of his guilt and then arrest him.

The three of them turned around for a long time and found a small detail, there were two toothbrushes in the tooth cup, indicating that it was very likely that someone lived with Ma Ke.

Gu Yue put a pair of disposable chopsticks into the leftover takeaway plastic bag on the table, and then took a photo.

On the other side, Li Yong and the others have begun to investigate the surveillance video around Zhao Yuguo's residence, although the place where Zhao Yuguo lives is also a relatively cheap rental house, but the nearby monitoring equipment is still relatively perfect, but the lines of these monitoring equipment have been cut.

Li Zhitong said: Didn't anyone shoot the murderer?

The police officer at the scene said: When the confession was recorded at the scene, someone confessed that the power in the community was out for about five or six minutes, and then returned to normal, and the murderer should have cut the line of the monitoring equipment during this time period.

Li Zhitong said: How many monitoring devices are there that have been cut off?

The police officer at the scene said: There are two, about 200 meters apart.

Li Zhitong said: Those five minutes were enough, and the murderer observed every monitoring probe in the vicinity, pulled down the electric switch at night, and then cut the line of the monitoring equipment.

Li Yong said: The murderer will definitely come to observe the situation before committing the crime, and the murderer should drive the car, stop in a place with surveillance, look around, and then go to a place with surveillance on the other side. However, his focus is only on Zhao Yuguo's family, so he only needs to see the monitoring of that range clearly. That's why the killer only cut these two surveillance footage.

Li Zhitong said: In order not to attract attention, he should drive a car, in order to hide people's eyes, he will also wear a hat or mask, and the murderer's car will be parked in the blind corner of the surveillance and will not be exposed to the surveillance range.

The police officer at the scene said: The deceased used to put the key in the screen of the anti-theft door, so the murderer was allowed to hide in the deceased's house in advance, the door lock was not broken, and the window had an anti-theft net and there was no trace of being damaged.

The murderer avoided all the cameras, and if he couldn't avoid it, he cut off the power and cut the line, the murderer had a certain anti-detection ability, and the goal was clear that it was to kill Zhao Yuguo, the interpersonal relationship of the deceased Li Li had been analyzed, is there anything missing?

So far, Li Yong has no clue at all.

Gu Yue suddenly said: Wen Jia's conjecture is very likely to be right, we found traces of the existence of the second person in Ma Ke's home, that is to say, it is very possible that Ma Ke commanded the second person to kill people.

Song Zetao said: Can you really be so sure, after all, we only found an extra pair of chopsticks and a toothbrush.

Gu Yue said: Whether it's true or not, let's try it to know, Xiaotao will lend you a USB flash drive.

Song Zetao was confused and said: What are you borrowing a USB flash drive for?

Gu Yue said: I want Ma Ke to say it himself.

Gu Yue took the file bag of the case and went to Ma Ke's interrogation room.

Gu Yue walked into the interrogation room and sat down without saying a word, took out some photos taken at Ma Ke's house from the file bag, Gu Yue deliberately placed the photos in front of him, placed them neatly, and then took out a USB flash drive from the file bag and put it on the far right side of the photo.

After doing all this, Gu Yue stared directly at Ma Ke in front of her, and the two looked at each other.

Ma Ke finally couldn't help but say: When will the police officer let me go.

Gu Yue smiled and said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to leave."

Ma Ke said: Why don't you let me go?

Gu Yue said: You killed Li Li and killed Zhao Yuguo with a knife, do you think you can go?

Ma Ke said: I killed Lili? You say I'm stupid Lili? I didn't kill anyone, I said I didn't kill anyone!

Gu Yue pushed the photos in front of Ma Ke one by one and said: You should have seen all of these, you live together, you killed Li Li, the broken body was packed in the suitcase, you are scared, more and more afraid, you are afraid that one day you will be discovered, and you are even more afraid that one day you will be arrested, so one night you discarded Li Li's body, you are still afraid, afraid that the police will find you, so you tell someone that if you are taken away by the police, let him kill Zhao Yuguo, so that you can get rid of suspicion.

Ma Ke lowered his head and did not speak.

Gu Yue continued: You can kill two birds with one stone, one can get rid of suspicion, and the other can kill an enemy, you have dealt with a lot of things, but you have forgotten chopsticks and toothbrushes.

Ma Ke said: This thing is ......

Gu Yue interrupted and said: You don't want to tell me that these are two pairs of chopsticks and two toothbrushes for your own use.

Ma Ke said: Yes, it is not illegal to use two pairs of chopsticks and two toothbrushes by yourself.

Gu Yue said: It's really not illegal, but the chopsticks were put by myself, not by your friend.

Ma Ke said: You are a fraud!

Gu Yue said: Then what did I deceive you?

Marks:......

Gu Yue said: You don't have to mess around, that friend of yours has been arrested by us, he is very smart to cut the wires when he cuts off the power, but he was still photographed by the surveillance with the license plate number, we quickly locked him and caught him, this USB flash drive is the interrogation record just now, do you still need me to show you?

Ma Ke's eyes slowly turned red, and he sighed and said: How can this be......
