Chapter 14: The Second Couple

Tang Rui stood not far away, his face was not very good-looking. But it was not so much that she was angry with Yan Junli and Yang Wenbin, but that she was so pale because of the tragic condition of the corpse that she couldn't care about their affairs.

"See for themselves." Tang Rui only said this simply, and then they quickly understood why her face was so pale.

Dead on the bench were a man and a woman, the man with his hair and clothes disheveled, while the woman was slightly better, sitting on the bench in a deformed position, with a large cut in their abdomen, blood mixed with intestinal fluids flowing to the ground, and then their intestines were entwined together with unskillful techniques.

In this scene, even Yan Junli and Yang Wenbin, who had seen too many corpses, felt a little sick to their stomachs.

"I can't believe it...... Yan Junli muttered, "I saw these two people last night, and they are still alive and well." ”

"Both bodies were found at half past five this morning and were killed in the early hours of last night. The name of the female deceased was Mu Yinglin, and the name of the male deceased was Ma Kangsheng. Tang Rui sighed, the expression on his face looked very tired, "Yes, I can't believe that what was originally just an ordinary murder turned into a serial murder case overnight." Yang Wenbin, I'm afraid that your theory of acquaintances committing crimes is about to be overturned. ”

Yang Wenbin ignored Tang Rui, just squatted down on his own, observing the two corpses on the bench.

Mu Yinglin's corpse had a pale face and purple lips, and even lipstick could not hide it. There was a distinct dark red strangulation mark on her neck, and her beautiful eyes were still wide open, and her unconscious eyes seemed to be full of reluctance and fear, and it was hard to imagine that this was the same person as the woman at the party last night.

Ma Kangsheng's expression was calmer than Mu Yinglin's, the back of his corpse's head was full of sticky blood, and it was even stained with the back collar of his clothes. Yang Wenbin asked for a pair of white gloves from a police officer, put them on, and groped around the body to examine them. He first took out a wallet and a small bag of cat food from Mu Yinglin's clothes pocket, pinched the cat food, and it was still full. Then he found a few small receipts and some money in Ma Kangsheng's pocket.

Soon, Yang Wenbin stood up from the corpse and analyzed, "Mu Yinglin's direct cause of death is suffocation, and the murder weapon is probably the scarf around her neck." Her cervical vertebrae showed signs of breaking, either because the murderer had a lot of strength, or because he hated the deceased to the core. The immediate cause of Ma Kangsheng's death should have been a blow to the back of the head. A very heavy blow should have been fatal on the spot. It can be seen that Mu Yinglin likes to feed the cats in the park, but today she didn't feed them for some reason, because the cat food in her pocket didn't move at all. And Ma Kangsheng, if you want me to say, he is planning to please a woman, or has just finished currying favor with a woman, but it is definitely not Mu Yinglin. ”

Yang Wenbin said and took out the small ticket that he turned out from Ma Kangsheng's pocket and showed it to Tang Rui and Yan Junli, "The receipt of the flower shop, he bought nine roses." ”

"What? Then how could the roses not be given to his girlfriend Mu Yinglin? Tang Rui pointed out.

"Because Mu Yinglin is allergic to pollen, and it should be a very severe allergy." Yang Wenbin took out a medical record from Mu Yinglin's wallet, "She just went to the hospital yesterday to prescribe medicine because of allergies. ”

Tang Rui had no choice but to spread his hands noncommittally.

"The time of death of both was between 1 and 3 o'clock in the morning, but it was not at the same time, Mu Yinglin was killed first, and then it took at least two hours for Ma Kangsheng to be killed." Yang Wenbin pressed the bodies of the two people with his hand and commented, "Mu Yinglin's corpse is stiffer than Ma Kangsheng's, and the zombie of Ma Kangsheng's corpse has been relieved, indicating that it should have been more than 12 hours since Ma Kangsheng's death." Women's hair and clothes were trimmed after death, lipstick was put on their lips, and men were dragged hard without benefit. ”

"Wait...... You say they weren't both killed at the same time? Tang Rui interrupted Yang Wenbin's words.

"Yes, and with all due respect, I thought it should be common sense to judge the time of death from the stiffness of the corpse." Yang Wenbin raised his head with a smile.

Tang Rui was blocked by Yang Wenbin's words, and retorted angrily, "That's the task of forensics, and it's not ours!" ”

"Okay, then I'll take care of your forensic work." Yang Wenbin shrugged his shoulders and showed innocent eyes, as if he was saying something very normal.

Yan Junli laughed a little gloatingly, to some extent, he was quite willing to see Tang Rui being blocked by Yang Wenbin and unable to speak, and he had to look like he had to beg for him.

"So, Captain Tang, have you looked for Ma Kangsheng's murder scene?"

"What?" Tang Rui's thinking obviously didn't keep up, and she said a little irritably, "What are you doing?" Isn't the scene of the murder here? ”

"But I'm sorry to tell you, of course not." Yang Wenbin said bluntly, "Obviously, he was not killed here at all. Look at the bloodstains, he was dragged over after he died, so his blood didn't spurt out at all, but flowed out. We can see that Mu Yinglin has a lot of blood spots splashed when she was disemboweled, but Ma Kangsheng did not. Not only that, Ma Kangsheng also had a large amount of blood stained on his back, right here-"

When Yang Wenbin reached out and turned Ma Kangsheng's body over, the intestines exposed in the corpse trembled. Except for Yang Wenbin, everyone present showed a somewhat disgusted expression.

"This is proof that the murderer dragged the body, so I judged that the first crime scene that killed Ma Kangsheng was not here." Yang Wenbin continued, "In short, the intestines of the two corpses are no longer saved, but this time the murderer did not take any internal organs for some reason. As last time, the body was abandoned in a very conspicuous place, only to be found hours later, and it was almost like showing off: behold, I killed people and no one found them! ”

"But this time it seems even more outrageous than the last one." Yan Junli suddenly raised his head and looked at the building opposite and said, "Opposite the park, there is a residential building right in front of us. Even in the middle of the night, there is still a high chance that passers-by will find out, and this murderer is a little too bold. ”

"yes. What do you guys think? Yang Wenbin turned his head to look at Yan Junli and Tang Rui, "If you want me to say, we should visit the residents on the other side and see if any of them noticed anything wrong last night." ”

Mr. Yang's suggestion was heeded, but door-to-door visits were apparently a troublesome task. Three people plus a small squad of police officers also spent nearly two hours. Most of the residents had no idea what had happened last night, and some were very perfunctory, apparently unwilling to have anything to do with the murders, for fear of avoiding them. When they knocked on the door of the dozens, they finally had a girl who gave them a fairly useful clue.

The girl looked like she was only in her teens and was in high school, and she nodded when Yang Wenbin mentioned the crime last night.

"I remember, I went to bed late last night." "I was very sleepy with my homework, so I stood up and moved my body and looked out the window," the girl recalled. Then I saw a couple making out on the bench opposite. ”

"Couples making out?" Yang Wenbin asked with some surprise, "Is it just intimacy?" Nothing else? ”

The girl nodded affirmatively.

"What time it was, do you remember?"

"I think it's about half past one......

Yang Wenbin nodded, "Didn't you see anyone else?" Are there only two people sitting on the bench? ”

The girl nodded, "Two people with long hair." ”

Tang Rui was stunned, "What did you say?" ”

"I said the couple I saw, both of them had long hair."

"But this can't be, Ma Kangsheng is not a long-haired ......" Tang Rui said eagerly, and before he could finish speaking, he was stopped by Yang Wenbin with a gesture.

"Are you sure?" Yang Wenbin asked.

The girl nodded, "You've seen the floor-to-ceiling windows of my room, and it's obvious from here that their backs are visible. ”

Yang Wenbin finally nodded and thanked the girl, "Okay, thank you, this may become a very important clue." ”

——————————————————————

"There are no clues in this case at all!"

Soon after, Yan Junli and Yang Wenbin were taken by Tang Rui to the police station in City A to make a record, but Tang Rui seemed very anxious, and even paced back and forth in place, complaining.

"Aren't Ma Kangsheng and Mu Yinglin a couple? Why is there another man with long hair now? Then Ma Kangsheng did not die in the park. Can anyone tell me what's going on now? And the first couple, why did the murderer kill them? Am I looking for a man with long hair? What was the murderer's motive? Is this an acquaintance committing a crime or an indiscriminate killing? Tang Rui looked at Yan Junli and Yang Wenbin irritably, "Hey, you two!" Didn't you see the two dead at the party the night before? Don't you have any clues? ”

Yang Wenbin and Yan Junli looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders.

"But aren't you the best cops and detectives in City C?" Tang Rui was obviously a little anxious, "You don't know anything about what I asked you to come over!" ”

Yang Wenbin frowned when he heard this, "Captain Tang, what you said is not quite right. You invited us, and we are not obligated to help you look into your case. ”

Tang Rui was stunned for a moment, only to realize that her tone seemed to be excessive, she took a deep breath and softened her tone, "I'm sorry...... But there has never been a similar case in City A, and now the whole police station is very nervous, and the higher authorities have told me to solve the case quickly, and I am really too stressed......"

Yang Wenbin shrugged his shoulders, stood up, and smiled lightly, "What does that have to do with us?" ”

Saying that, Yang Wenbin walked out of the room where the transcript was made, leaving only one sentence, "I have already said all the testimony that should be said as a witness, and there is no need to send it." ”

Leaving Tang Rui stunned to look at his departing back, he turned to Yan Junli who was still sitting angrily, "Is your partner always like this?" ”

"Sometimes." Yan Junli shrugged.

————————————————————————

"I can't believe you just slapped the table and left." Yan Junli caught up with Yang Wenbin.

"Hmm...... Except I didn't seem to be slapping the table. Yang Wenbin said with a smile.

"I think for Tang Rui, the impact is no less than you slapping the table."

"For someone like her, this trick works best." Yang Wenbin rolled his eyes, "I don't want to make myself like a slave and work for her." ”

"You still have a lot of clues that you haven't told her, do you?" Yan Junli asked as he walked, "For example...... The murderer of the first couple and the murderer of the second couple are not alone. ”

Yang Wenbin stopped abruptly and looked at Yan Junli incredulously, "How do you know?" ”
