Chapter 68: The Puzzle
At this time, the photographing of the scene was almost carried out, and the forensic doctor turned the deceased from the ground over, prone to supine, and the face of the deceased was also presented to everyone for the first time.
Seeing the deceased's face clearly, Tang Guo couldn't help but be taken aback, she looked at Qin Cang in some surprise, wanting to see what kind of reaction Qin Cang had to do to this, and Qin Cang also raised her eyebrows slightly.
"It's a bit unexpected." He muttered to himself.
The deceased is not a woman of the same age as Kong Xiaotong and Li Yinliu, her face looks quite old, even if there are obvious traces of makeup, it is still difficult to hide the marks left by the years, there are obvious wrinkles on the forehead, and the cheeks are slightly loose, which is quite slim, at first glance it looks like a twenty or thirty-year-old figure, and the brightly colored dress is in sharp contrast, which looks a little abrupt.
"This dress, it shouldn't be that the murderer forced the deceased to put it in, right?" Tang Guo asked suspiciously.
"No, clothes, coats, and shoes, including flesh-colored leggings, these things are very matched, if the murderer put on the deceased, it is unreasonable, wear it before death, the deceased will not cooperate, wear it after death, and the damaged place does not match, the deceased is obviously wearing this dress and was stabbed to death by a knife, if you change it after knocking it out, it doesn't make sense, after all, knocking people unconscious is a technical job, and it is very difficult to control the weight, and you will die on the spot if you knock it hard, and you don't know how long it will take to wake up after knocking it lightlyIn this case, it is illogical and unjustifiable for the murderer to change such a troublesome set of clothes to the deceased. Qin Cang shook his head.
Tang Guo felt that what he said was reasonable, he just didn't expect that the deceased this time would be a middle-aged woman who looked to be in her fifties, so he was too surprised, and he didn't think about it all of a sudden.
"Why is there so much age difference between the deceased this time? Do you think it could be that the murderer was forced by us to have no choice, so he chose a random target for him on the impromptu basis? Or is it indiscriminate this time? Tang Guo still felt that the change in the age of the deceased was a bit unbelievable, and there was no way to understand it.
Qin Cang shook his head and motioned for her not to speak yet, a person frowned, stared at the female corpse on the ground, and fell into deep thought, Tang Guo was embarrassed to disturb him when he saw this, so he quietly guarded on the side. Xiao Zhu hooked his hand at her on the side, as if he wanted to say something to her, Tang Guo nodded at him, and then walked over to him, afraid that the sound of Xiao Zhu talking to himself would affect Qin Cang's thinking.
"Tang Guo, didn't you investigate a person named Shi Liquan before? That person has a criminal record before, right? What do you think? Is there any progress that has not been made? Xiao Zhu asked Tang Guo in a low voice.
Tang Guo shook his head, although she said that the investigation of Shi Li was a smoke bomb released, but the answer she gave Xiao Zhu was not a lie: "There is no progress, it is still the same as before, stagnant." What about you? ”
In fact, according to Qin Cang's previous judgment, this question is purely a redundant question, and the answer should naturally be the same as what she told Xiao Zhu just now, but Tang Guo still chose to ask, she kind of wanted to confirm whether Qin Cang's previous analysis of the situation on Xiao Zhu and Yan Lifu's side was accurate.
Xiao Zhu sighed and shook his head with some annoyance: "The same!" It's like entering a dead end, Tang Tianlu really likes to talk to Li Yinliu, but it has nothing to do with Kong Xiaotong's side, and the motive for the murder is not enough, in addition, we have also inquired, there is nothing more suspicious, and now this is the third case, the nature of this case is getting more and more serious, but I don't have a clue at all, it's really worrying! But then again, why is it the same over there? Didn't that Qin Cang claim to be a genius? I thought he would think differently from us 'mortals'! It turned out to be half a catty and eight taels, no difference! ”
Tang Guo pulled the corners of her mouth in embarrassment, she didn't have anything to say about Xiao Zhu's evaluation of Qin Cang, anyway, Qin Cang's guy, he didn't care what Xiao Zhu thought of him, but Xiao Zhu's expression seemed to show her that Qin Cang's previous speculation was correct, and she knew from beginning to end that Shi Liquan was just a smoke bomb, but Xiao Zhu really thought that they were investigating Tang Tianlu, and Yan Lifu had reservations about Xiao Zhu. Confirming this, Tang Guo's mood also became a little complicated, not so much, mainly because he was only a detective and idol in his mind when he was a student, Yan Lifu, who was perfected by himself, was really like Qin Cang said, with selfish intentions, and there was no substantial difference between him and other ordinary people, this discovery made Tang Guo feel a little disappointed, and there was a little bit of a bad taste in his heart.
"Didn't Yan Lifu come?" She opened her mouth to ask Xiao Zhu, she didn't want to evaluate Qin Cang with him, although Qin Cang's personality was a little weird, but in terms of guiding herself, she was unreserved, so Tang Guo still respected him very much, and didn't want to judge him well.
Xiao Zhu shook his head: "A little bit of a cold, cold, originally he wanted to stick to it, I persuaded him not to come, look back at the photos of the scene or something, anyway, the series of murders, the means should be the same, half a catty and eight taels, it makes no difference whether you come to this scene or not." ”
Tang Guo felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with what he said, but it seemed that there was something wrong with it, originally she thought that Yan Lifu would be the type who couldn't get out of the line of fire with minor injuries, but she didn't say anything, just nodded, she didn't know the specific situation, it was not easy to make judgments, maybe Yan Lifu was really sick.
The two of them said a few more words, and Tang Guo returned to Qin Cang's side, seeing that his originally tightly frowning brows had loosened a little, and guessed that he must have figured out some joints, so he asked; "So there was any doubt? Did you just run into something that you figured out now? ”
"That's right," Qin Cang still had the same attitude as always, never making reservations in the analysis of the case, and nodded to Tang Guo, "I was just wondering why the third deceased was a middle-aged woman in her fifties and sixties, whether it was an impromptu intention as you said, or a victim who had been prepared and had already been selected." ”
"And what do you think of the situation now?" Tang Guo hurriedly asked.
"I don't think it's going to be improvised, it's too risky, and it's not necessarily the right person to pass through such an isolated route, and it has to be alone at such a late hour." Qin Cang replied, "So the deceased should have already been the target of the murderer, but choosing to attack at such a time may be a little hastier than the murderer's original plan." Assuming that my judgment is correct, it means that the age of the deceased is not the key to the problem, and the murderer has never wanted to kill a young woman in her twenties or thirties with a young son, and he has his own set of criteria when choosing the victim. The third deceased is very different from Kong Xiaotong and Li Yinliu, which is a good thing for us, at least we can use this to make some comparisons and analysis, just like playing a jigsaw puzzle, to summarize the characteristics of the victim group targeted by the murderer. ”
