Longan Industrial Zone, a factory to be demolished.

On the fifth floor of Building B, the factory building of thousands of square meters is extremely empty, and on the window hole in the middle, a cross made of wood is tied, and a person is tied to the cross.

When the wind blew, the cross swayed back and forth in the wind, and the bottom of the wood beat rhythmically against the cement brick wall on the windowsill.

The man who found this person was a waste picker who was picking up waste in the factory, and the uncle surnamed Wu said that the factory had been vacant for more than a year, and he had been talking about demolishing it, but he had not demolished it.

For more than a year, he has been wandering around this area, knocking on window frames today, and building billboards tomorrow.

It was found that this person was in the early morning of this day, and the place where Uncle Wu was sleeping was under the bridge hole of a nearby overpass.

These factories are guarded during the day, and at night, the uncle at the door is generally sleeping.

For more than a year, Uncle Wu figured out the schedule of the guard, and usually touched it in the early hours of the morning to see if he could find some valuable scrap.

On this night, I walked around several factories one after another, but there was nothing to gain, and the last place I came to was Building B.

By the time we reached the fourth floor, it was almost dawn.

The windows on all sides of the factory were open, and the wind was a little strong, and the tin sheets of billboards were clanging.

The iron billboard hanging on the outer wall on the fifth floor, Uncle Wu has always wanted to get it, but the location of the place is high, and it is on the outer wall, so he has spare strength but is insufficient.

This night, when the iron billboard was blown by the wind, Uncle Wu came to the spirit, didn't someone do it first? Maybe I can pick up a little cheap.

On the fifth floor, before the billboard was looking, through the glimmer of the morning light, I saw a person hanging from the window and swaying.

Uncle Wu was shocked into a cold sweat, he has lived a handful of years and has seen some of the world.

Trembling, he moved to the window and touched the man's exposed ankle, which was cold.

There is also an indescribable smell, Uncle Wu said that he is old, and he has seen that kind of smell, which is the smell of a dead man.

Uncle Wu is a homeless waste picker who doesn't have a cell phone.

Of course, you have to call the police, and the uncle in the duty room at the door woke up for a long time, and the uncle called the police.

The police came quickly, and the person who was hanging from the window hole was put down.

The police, who arrived in advance, did not find anything on the deceased that could prove his identity.

When Xiao Mo arrived at the scene, Zhu Miaomiao and her assistant were already working on the on-site inspection.

When he saw the face of the deceased, Xiao Mo's heart sank.

"Is that him?"

Qi Nan said on the side: "Brother, you know him." ”

"Huang Zhigao, the owner of the big bowl of dishes."

When Yanan who came from behind saw Huang Zhigao, he suddenly realized his expression.

"No wonder, I have used all the high-tech means in the past few days, and I have found no trace of Huang Zhigao leaving Chunyang City, nor have I found his hiding place in Chunyang City, it turns out that he has long been burping."

Huang Zhigao's death made Xiao Mo not know whether to be happy or surprised.

The good news is that he died so unexplained, which indirectly confirms that the fire in which Zhu Zhong's family of four died was premeditated.

The fire should have been set up by him, but there must be a behind-the-scenes instigator behind him.

What is surprising is that Huang Zhigao is so dead, it is not easy to find the mastermind behind the scenes.

Zhu Miaomiao began to describe.

"The deceased, male, is presumed to be around 35 years old. The skin is green, there is a network of putrefactive blood vessels and putrefactive blisters - 2~3 days, there are no scars on the surface of the corpse, and two cord grooves are formed on the neck of the deceased with different directions, and it is inferred that the neck is strangled with a rope from behind, and then it creates the illusion of self-hanging. Therefore, it was preliminarily determined that he was killed. Whether there were any other causes of death would require a further autopsy to determine the results. ”

Yanan on the side asked, "What does this cross represent?" ”

Xiao Mo replied: "The cross is said to have been invented by the Phoenicians and was widely used in ancient Egypt, the Mediterranean coast, and the countries of the Middle East. This was a great invention of the Phoenicians, which was to crucify people to death.

The crucifixion has since been modified many times, but it has always been an unusually cruel way of executing people, and has little in common with Huang Zhigao's method of death.

I suspect that the murderer tied the deceased to the cross because he had a special meaning, perhaps to make him repent. ”

Qi Nan said: "This Huang Zhigao's business is so big, has he offended anyone?" would hang him in such a place, if it weren't for the scavenging uncle, I am afraid that he would have dried dried meat in this place and would not have found it. ”

Xiao Mo: "Recently, I have been investigating the catastrophic fire accident that happened in Lanhai Village a few years ago. The fire killed the restaurant owner's family of four. After my recent investigation, all the clues point to this Huang Zhigao, and it is very likely that the fire was not an accident, but someone deliberately set it on fire.

The specific situation will be told to you in detail one by one when I return to the bureau. ”

Haoran analyzed: "If the fire was committed by Huang Zhigao, then he was tied to the cross, which means that the murderer wants him to repent of what he did." Could it be the people next to the victims who died in that fire? Acts of retaliation? ”

"I don't rule out this possibility, but I suspect that the murderer has another purpose, and the specific situation involves another case from 20 years ago, and I will tell you in detail when I return to the bureau."

"No matter what the suspect's motive is, he (she) chose such an inaccessible place, and there is no monitoring probe nearby, which will naturally bring considerable difficulty to our reconnaissance work. ”

Lao Liu of the trace department said: "A group of 43-yard shoe prints were found at the scene, judged to be the marks of leather shoes, from the first floor, except for some messy footprints, only that group of leather shoe prints has extraction value."

The shoe prints were different from those worn on the feet of the deceased, and no footprints belonging to the deceased were found.

From the depth of the shoe prints, it is inferred that the deceased was carried on the back by a man wearing size 43 leather shoes, or walked to the fifth floor.

The movement is light, the step length is long, the step angle is small, the pressure on the soles of the feet is uneven, the heavy pressure is obvious, and the edges of the footprints are not complete, so it is inferred that the suspect is a thin person with a height of about 170 to 180.

In addition, no useful fingerprints were taken from the rope and wood, and it was determined that the suspect was wearing gloves to commit the crime. ”

The suspect was thin, between 175 and 180 tall, and wore size 43 leather shoes.

Who is the suspect? Xiao Mo filtered the people he had suspected before.

The first to bear the brunt is Xiao Ze, his height is about 180, it is normal for a big boss to wear leather shoes, but although his figure is not fat, he is definitely not thin, especially his slightly pregnant belly.

The people around Xiao Ze, first of all, Zhu Jianjun, are thin, with a height of about 180, and they are all suits and leather shoes when they meet several times, and they have shiny leather shoes, which he is in line with.

But Zhu Jianjun is old after all, Xiao Mo feels that he is unlikely to have the strength to give Huang Zhigao, who is in the prime of life, from the first floor to the fifth floor.
