It's a summer, a hot summer.

That afternoon, the sun was still shining fiercely overhead.

In a densely populated community, it was pulled up by the police for a long cordon. Under the scorching sun, the onlookers craned their necks outside the cordon and stopped to watch.

It turned out that the police investigators were surrounding a valve shaft and were salvaging something.

I was standing next to the valve shaft, and when the valve shaft was opened, I smelled a strong rancid smell. It was because of this smell that the sewer repairer called the police, and he saw a large woven pocket in the valve shaft, and the edge of the pocket had been broken, and a human foot was peeking out of the pocket. That's right, there was a human corpse in the valve well.

A strong criminal policeman, wearing a white mask and gloves, with a cable tied around his waist, climbed down the iron ladder next to the valve shaft to the bottom of the valve shaft.

This valve well is very unique, it is deeper than the ordinary valve well, I should have more than three meters by visual inspection, and it is this deep valve well that brings convenience to the corpse.

After the criminal police team reached the bottom of the valve shaft, they tied the cable to the woven bag, and the team members on it pulled the body out of the valve shaft together.

When the woven bag was opened, it was found to be a rotten and naked female corpse. Although the corpse was badly decomposed, it stenched. But I'm used to seeing rotting corpses and smelling the stench, so I don't think so.

I crouched down and examined the body, which found no obvious trauma, but significant bruises on the neck. This bruise was left by an outsider who violently strangled his neck with both hands, and it was preliminarily judged that the deceased died of mechanical asphyxiation.

Looking at the extent of the corpse's decomposition, based on the summer and the humid and muggy conditions in the valve well, the rate of decay was slightly faster than normal, and the time of death was inferred to be about ten days.

By screening the deceased's teeth and body features, I speculated that the deceased's age was between 40 and 45 years old.

After examining the corpse, I stood up and said to Lao Lu standing next to the corpse: "I speculate that the deceased was killed by an acquaintance, because he was naked, and if it was a random killing, the murderer would never have taken all his clothes off his clothes so much." There is also a need to investigate whether the deceased was sexually assaulted before her death, because she was naked, which is indeed very suspicious. ”

Lao Lu nodded.

He looked around and said, "Look at this location, it is in the middle of this immigrant community, although this is an open community, there are no facilities within the property security, but it is still a little strange to kill someone and throw the body in such a valve well." ”

Lao Lu said: "I also feel strange, I don't know what the murderer thinks." ”

I said, "If I'm a murderer and I'm going to do this, then there's going to be a condition." ”

Lao Lu said: "What conditions? ”

I said, "The location of the body is actually consistent with the characteristics of being dumped and buried near after a murder. The valve well is a relatively hidden place, and it is underground, so it can be regarded as a burial corpse. But the murderer must have known that after the workers entered the valve shaft, they would inevitably be discovered. So the murderer certainly won't be stationed nearby. Then I deduce that the burial is because the murderer lives in this community, but the murderer is not a permanent resident here, and is likely to be a tenant. From this inference, the deceased should also be a tenant of the community, and we show the deceased to the whole community to identify, and perhaps someone can recognize it. And I think the murderer must be very scared after the killing, so he should have chosen to leave this community. It is very likely that the murderer will be found among the people who lived in the community before the investigation but moved out after the crime. ”

Soon, the police began to survey the entire community. Unfortunately, none of the people know the woman in the photo, and no tenants have recently left the complex.

In the office, Lao Lu took a photo of the female corpse and said: "Is it because the corpse is so badly decomposed that its facial features are no longer recognizable?" ”

I said, "It's a possibility." Because in the process of investigation, many people are very disgusted with such photos, and they even just glanced at them and said perfunctorily that they didn't know each other. ”

Lao Lu sighed and said: "This is also a common difficulty encountered in the investigation work, the masses do not cooperate or are perfunctory, which is a common thing. ”

I frowned, and I understood that there was no way to force such a thing. However, I am very dissatisfied with the result that no tenant has moved out. So I said to Lao Lu: "Are you sure you have all conducted a survey of the residents in the community?" ”

Lao Lu looked at me with strange eyes and said, "Do you believe in the investigative strength of our police force when you ask this?" ”

I frowned again, feeling that something was wrong. said: "Isn't this murderer a resident in the community?" Or is this murderer's psychological quality excellent, even if he kills someone, he still acts like he doesn't care? ”

Lao Lu said: "No one can answer the two questions you are raising now, I think the most important thing now is to find the source of the corpse and find out the true identity of this woman." ”

I stood up and said, "Comrade Lu, you are still the most pragmatic. ”

However, it is difficult to implement this pragmatic idea. Because through the missing persons survey, there is no one who matches the situation of the female corpse at all. I wondered, my relatives have been missing for more than ten days, is there no family to report the crime?

This headless case dragged on like this, and it dragged on for more than half a year. In the past six months, the police have not given up on finding the source of the body, but the effect is extremely unsatisfactory. This has also become a piece of heart disease in the hearts of Lao Lu and me. Unexpectedly, such a case that occurred in a residential area actually became an unsolved case.

But I know that the case will eventually be solved, and as time goes on, I believe that the family of the deceased will one day report the case to the police and tell them that his loved one is missing.

Just after the New Year, I received a call from Lao Lu, who said excitedly on the phone: "The female corpse of the immigrant community has a clue." ”

I didn't even eat breakfast and hurried to the criminal investigation team.

In the office of the criminal investigation team, I saw a man in his 40s. The man's hair was a little messy, he was wearing some old camouflage uniforms, a pair of military labor protection shoes on his feet, his face and the back of his hands looked very dark, and his fingers could be seen to be short and thick, he should be a migrant worker who often does manual work.

Lao Lu said to me: "This brother's name is Huang Chengyong, and he said that her sister has not been able to contact her, so she came to call the police. ”

Lao Lu walked to the desk at this time, took out the photo of the female corpse that we don't know how many times we have seen, handed it to Huang Chengyong and said, "Do you recognize the woman in the photo?" ”

Huang Chengyong, who looked honest, jumped when he saw the photo, and hurriedly took the photo aside. Maybe it was because he was looking for his relatives, he took the photo in front of him again, and then he looked at it very seriously for a while, then handed the photo to Lao Lu and said: "Comrade policeman, this person is like this, and I can't be sure if she is my sister." ”

I said, "Then tell me what your sister's name is, her physical characteristics, height, hair, by the way, and her age." ”

Huang Chengyong said: "My sister's name is Huang Chengzhi, I am a dragon and phoenix fetus with her, she is the same age as me today, 43 years old, she is 1.58 meters tall, her long hair seems to be dyed yellow." ”

After listening to Huang Chengyong's description, I nodded and said to Lao Lu: "Almost the same as the deceased." ”

Lao Lu said: "This is easy to confirm, we can compare the DNA of Huang Chengyong and the deceased, if it matches, then it can prove their kinship." can also prove that the woman in the photo is Huang Chengzhi. ”

I shook my head and said, "The DNA comparison results of the brother-sister relationship are not particularly accurate, and it cannot be 100% proof that the two are related. Unless they are identical twins. They are of different genders, apparently fraternal twins, and the results of this DNA comparison are not very rigorous. If the parents and children of the deceased can be found, then the results of the comparison are extremely credible. ”

Lao Lu immediately asked Huang Chengyong, "What about your parents?" ”

"They all passed away a few years ago. ”

Lao Lu frowned, thought for a while and continued to ask, "Does Huang Chengzhi have any children?" ”

Huang Chengyong said: "She has been married twice, but now they are both divorced. She and her first husband have a son, who should be 21 years old this year, named Gong Jianbin . ”

Lao Lu immediately clapped his hand and said, "Okay, let's go find this Gong Jianbin immediately." ”

At Huang Chengyong's place, we got Gong Jianbin's contact information, and soon found Gong Jianbin in a private house in Zhoujiaba.

However, this big boy with yellow hair, who looked like a ruffian, wore a gold necklace on his chest, and had a lion's head tattooed on his arm, actually refused to cooperate with the police and was unwilling to provide DNA identification.

He said, "Who is that woman?" I don't know, it's none of my business whether she lives or dies. After he finished speaking, he closed the door viciously, no matter how Lao Lu knocked on the door, he was silent.

It stands to reason that it is the duty of every citizen to cooperate with the police in handling cases, but why is this Gong Jianbin so abnormal?

Lao Lu said angrily: "This little ruffian, you look at him like that, I guess it's to make us police unhappy, according to Lao Tzu's temper, I have to kick open this door and tie him up to the police station." ”

I frowned and looked at Lao Lu, thought for a while, and said softly: "I don't think that this kid is making the police unhappy, but we are making him unhappy." Our presence told him that his birth mother was dead, perhaps because he couldn't accept it for a while. Huang Chengyong said that Huang Chengzhi divorced her first husband very early, so this child should have been without his mother since he was a child. You see that he is dressed like this now, obviously because he lacked maternal love and family love when he was a child, which led to rebellion. ”

Lao Lu said: "Then what are we going to do? ”

I said, "Find someone close to this kid and let him persuade him." ”

Lao Lu nodded.

When I walked out of this residential building, I saw a modified motorcycle downstairs, and I could tell at a glance that it was a little too modified, and the speed was obviously increased, but the safety performance was very bad. I don't know which bear child's dead locomotive this is?
