I unfolded the plastic film to easily seal the entire bathtub, and I guess the killer sealed the bathtub full of corpses and alcohol because he was worried that the strong smell of alcohol would spread into the air and spread outside the house, arousing the suspicion of others. Although the deceased will eventually be found, delaying the discovery will make it more difficult to solve the case, and the murderer knows this very well.

I walked around the center of the bathroom and found the drain hole in the floor next to the bathtub, the filter on the drain hole was not fully fixed, so I took out the key and pried open the drain hole. Then from the sink, I took off a toothbrush, put the toothbrush into the drain hole and brushed it a few times, and when I pulled out the toothbrush, I saw that there were a lot of brown coagulates adsorbed on the bristles, and there was a fishy smell on it, it seemed that these things were probably the residue of blood clotting.

I crouched on the ground again, turned on the LED light on my phone, and carefully examined the marks on the non-slip floor. Less than 30 centimeters away from the steps of the bathtub, there were many scratches on the non-slip floor, and I scratched the ground with my key, and it was difficult to leave the same marks. It seems that these scratch marks were left by large metal sharp objects, such as hacksaws.

The debris of blood clotting in the drain holes, and the scratch marks left by sharp objects on the floor, I deduced that the place where the body was dismembered was in this bathroom, and the reason why the bathroom was so clean was, of course, that the murderer had carefully cleaned the scene after the body was dismembered.

Back to the body in the bathtub, it is easy to determine from the head that this is a male corpse, and it is estimated that the family members also determined the identity of the deceased through this head.

I picked up a broken leg and examined the section of the body, and the section was neat, even the section of the bone was smooth. Obviously, this must have been formed by cutting with a sharp hacksaw.

Well, now the first question arises, where is this hacksaw? Was it taken away from the scene by the murderer, or was it hidden at the scene?

With my chin propped on the back of my right hand and frowning at the corpses in the bath, there were two things that I really couldn't conclude at the first time.

First, how did the deceased die? The mutilated body parts made it impossible for me to accurately determine the cause of death.

Second, I can't confirm the exact time of the deceased's death. Because although the corpse soaked in the wine also has a case of decay, it is relatively not serious, because the ethanol in the wine has a certain antiseptic effect and slows down the decay of the corpse.

It seems that these two questions can only be confirmed by a more professional forensic doctor.

Of course, there is another place worth my attention, the only body that is soaked in the bathtub is the corpse, so where are the relics of the victims? The relics I am talking about mainly include the things that the deceased carried with him, such as clothes, pants, shoes and socks, mobile phones, watches, and so on.

After that, I looked at the whole bathroom again and found a few interesting points. First, there was only one toothbrush on the sink in this bathroom, the same one I used to brush the drain holes. And from the fact that there is only one towel hanging and there are no women's items on the sink, it can be seen that this bathroom should not be used by women very often. But I learned from Lao Lu that the owner of this room had a wife, and he was sitting outside. Why is this happening? That's what I'm going to ask later.

Second, I found a used condom in the trash can in the bathroom, and I found this kind of thing in the bathroom where no lady used it for a long time, can I consider that it was the product of the man who brought a woman home and left it after a night of romance? So does this woman have anything to do with this case? It's worth thinking about.

Thirdly, there was a long red silk bathrobe hanging from the coat hook on the bathroom wall, and I smelled this bathrobe, and from the strong smell of alcohol, I also smelled a little sweat, indicating that this bathrobe had been worn by someone. So why is this bathrobe hanging here? Is it because it's dirty, and it's hanging here ready to be washed?

Most people throw their dirty clothes in a corner of the bedroom or bathroom and in a specific basket of clothes. Hanging dirty laundry like this is obviously unreasonable. Then I deduce that the owner of the bathrobe did not have a chance to wear it again after taking it off. It is likely that the owner of the bathrobe was the deceased, and the deceased was killed while taking off the bathrobe to take a bath.

But here another suspicion arises, because this bathroom has both a bathtub and a shower head, so what about the deceased who was killed while using the bathtub? Or was he killed while using a shower?

Let's start with the bathtub.

The bathtub is leaning against the floor-to-ceiling windows with curtains. At one end is a storage shelf with wine, wine glasses and some indoor flowers, while at the other end is the wall. Therefore, the only way to enter the bathtub is through a staircase on the front of the bathtub.

I visually inspected the staircase, and it was relatively wide, forty centimeters long. I guess the reason for making such a wide bathtub staircase is to show the grandeur and luxury of this large bathroom.

I tried, and if I were a murderer to kill the deceased who was bathing in the bathtub, it would be awkward to stand on this ladder. Because the ladder increases the gap between the murderer and the bathtub, it is very inconvenient to use a knife and axe to chop or rope to pinch the neck. But if you don't stand on this step, it doesn't seem to be far enough. Therefore, no matter where the deceased is attacked, it is easy to be resisted by the deceased. Then the revolt will inevitably cause a lot of splashes, which will splash on the surrounding walls, curtains, and storage shelves. However, I checked the surroundings and found no traces of spills or wipes. Apparently, the deceased did not struggle in the bathtub. Of course, if the murderer used a pistol and killed with one shot, that would be a different matter.

I looked at the shower head again, which was isolated from the bathroom by a glass cabin. Of course, the first thing that came to my mind was to look for clues in this glass hut, such as whether there were blood stains on the non-slip mats on the ground, whether there was any residual blood in the drainage holes, and whether there were traces of blood spills on the glass inside. After examining all this, nothing was found.

It seems that from these alone, it is impossible to conclude how the deceased was killed? It's just that I have a hunch in my heart that something unusual must have happened in this strange bathroom before the deceased died.

Walking out of the bathroom, Lao Lu asked me, "Are there any breakthrough discoveries?" ”

I shook my head and said, "Aside from being able to determine that the mutilation was done in this bathroom, there are more questions. ”

Lao Lu patted me on the shoulder and said, "If you find a doubt, it is a major discovery, and if you solve the doubt, won't the case be solved." ”

I smiled, knowing that Lao Lu was cheering me on, and of course, what he said was also very reasonable.

I was about to go out of this bedroom to inquire about the deceased's wife, when I suddenly caught a glimpse of an unusual situation, that is, why was the double bed in the bedroom so neatly made? The air conditioners on the beds were neatly folded and the sheets were laid out neatly.

So I asked Lao Lu: "When you are home alone, do you fold the quilt and make the sheets?" ”

Lao Lu stared at me and said, "What are you asking for?" ”

I said, "To stack or not to stack?" ”

Lao Lu said: "It must not be stacked, this kind of thing will naturally be done when the daughter-in-law comes back." ”

I asked the medical examiner next to me, and his answer was the same. Well, as a man this seems to be a common problem, and I don't leave it untidied up.

But why was the deceased's bed so well made? Was it his daughter-in-law who sorted it out for him? Or is the lifestyle of a rich man like him better than that of ordinary people?

Judging from the various signs in the bathroom, the deceased lived here alone, so the daughter-in-law came to tidy up, which is obviously not true. And the reason for good living habits seems a bit far-fetched.

I walked over to the double bed, stared at it for a long time, then bent down and threw the pillows and air conditioners on the floor, grabbing the sheets and pulling hard.

Except for a high-end Simmons below, there is nothing unusual.

Lao Lu walked over, kicked the pillow on the ground and said, "Ouyang, what are you doing?" Don't spoil the scene! ”

I glanced at Lao Lu and said, "Come on, come on, help, help me turn this bed Simmons over." ”

Although Lao Lu stared at me with puzzled eyes for a few moments, he still worked with me to push this Simmons up.

When Simmons was overthrown under the bed by us, I saw a look of surprise on Lao Lu's face.

Because on the other side of Simmons, there was a large pool of tan stains, which were obviously the traces left by a large dose of blood after they had dried up. And on the bed board, there was also a sheet on the sheet, which was also covered with blood.

I affirmed, "This is where the dead were killed." ”

Lao Lu said: "Could it be that the deceased was killed while he was asleep? ”

I shook my head and said, "No, I deduce that the deceased was conscious before he was killed, and as for why he died in bed, I guess the killer deliberately lured the deceased to the bed and then killed him." ”

"Be specific."

I said, "We didn't find any bloody clothing from the deceased, so there are two possibilities, the first is that the clothes were disposed of by the killer, and the second is that there are no such clothes at all." If I were the killer, in order to leave less evidence, I would choose to do it while the victim was undressed. So let me assume the murderer's means of committing the murder. ”

Lao Lu lowered his head slightly, frowned and said, "Let's hear it." ”

I said, "The murderer was a woman, and she was the one who succeeded in attracting the deceased." Before the attack, the two bathed together in the bathroom and had committed improper acts. After it was over, the woman proceeded to seduce the deceased out of the bathroom and into the bedroom. At this time, both of them should have been undressed, so the deceased hung the bathrobe in the bathroom. After entering the bedroom, the two may be entangled again, and the woman took the opportunity to kick all the quilts and pillows on the bed to the ground, which is to avoid the blood stains when the murder is too wide. After that, the woman asked the deceased to lie on the bed on the pretext of massaging the deceased, and finally used a sharp knife hidden in the gap between Simmons and the bed to kill the deceased. The best way to kill is to poke from the back into the heart. So in my opinion, killers are professionally trained veterans. ”
