"Lao Lin, don't sleep, there's a case."

"What kind of case is it this time? Du Group,"

Coffee, sandwiches, every day I wake up at the police station, Team Leader Du will prepare this seemingly cookie-cutter breakfast for us, after graduating from the police academy, I was assigned to work in the serious crime team of Thanh Hoa Street, and every day there will be all kinds of strange cases handed over to us. Du Feng, the leader of our serious crime team, is nicknamed Du Qingtian, and I have never seen a case that he can't solve since I joined the company.

"A female corpse was found under the bridge in the West District, the cause of death was strange, and Xiaoxiao knew that their forensic department had passed."

"All staff, three minutes, ready to go."

There are not many members of the serious crime team, plus me and the Du group, a total of eight people, generally we are divided into three groups, the scene investigation and forensic evidence collection by the Du group, me and Xiaoxiao are mainly responsible, the suspect investigation is mainly handed over to Li Ming, Lao Wang and the new pony, and the rest of the hard work of arresting the murderer will be handed over to Li Kuohai and Xiong Yu, who are the most capable in the team. In the past three years, we have cooperated tacitly and cracked many serious cases, and the city attaches great importance to the Du Group, and I think that the case in the Western District is also designated by the city to solve the case, because the Western District is not within our jurisdiction.

"The deceased, female, aged between 20 and 23, had 21 wounds of various sizes all over her body, but none of them were fatal, and the preliminary medical examiner determined that the deceased died due to excessive blood loss, and the time of death was about two days ago, and this was not the scene of the first crime."

"Twenty-one cuts, none of them fatal?"

"This is too cruel, twenty-one knife edges, what a hatred."

Du Group's eyebrows tightened, "It shouldn't be a vendetta, the wound is torn, it shouldn't be a sharp weapon like a knife, and the twenty-one wounds are of different depths, it should be something like a fish hook." If the vendetta would not choose this kind of thing as a murder weapon. ”

"That's right," Xiaoxiao nodded, "Our forensic team also unanimously believes that the twenty-one wounds on the deceased's body were caused by murder weapons such as fish hooks, but the strange thing is that the deceased did not have any fingerprints left on her body, but there were some hairs left on her clothes, and the preliminary identification was not human hair." ”

"Could it be that he was caught and killed by some fierce beast?"

"I don't rule out this suspicion, Li Ming, immediately take your two groups to search the city for the missing people within a week, and find out the identity of the deceased as soon as possible."

The Du group has always been vigorous and resolute, Xiaoxiao and I were arranged to continue to investigate the scene of the crime, Li Ming and they went to investigate the identity of the deceased, and the Du group was called by the city bureau to do the handover of the homicide.

In fact, we get one of these murders about every week, and the life of the Crime Squad consumes a lot of my time, and even though I'm only 26 years old, I don't have much time left for me to calculate according to the law of yokai life.

The West District Bridge is close to the city center, and there is usually a lot of traffic, and the time from the exposure of the body to the discovery of the deceased will not exceed five hours, but the time of death of the deceased is shown to be two days ago, which means that the deceased was dumped here about a day and a half after death. If so, then it is likely that the killer has not left the city, and according to criminal psychology, 80 percent of them will return to the scene of the crime after the crime.

As the scene of the second crime, there is not much investigation value here, and the Du group arranged for me and Xiaoxiao to stay here to continue the investigation, the purpose of which is to confuse the murderer.

"The deceased's name is Ren Yaoyao, a sophomore female student at the School of Economics and Management of this city, who disappeared mysteriously in the Chenghuang Temple in the east of our city two days ago, and we contacted her roommates, who said that Ren Yaoyao would go out with her boyfriend every weekend, and this time she also answered her boyfriend's call before going to the Chenghuang Temple. But the strange thing is that no one in their dormitory has seen this Ren Yaoyao's so-called boyfriend, and they can't find any contact information about her boyfriend in Ren Yaoyao's social software and address book. ”

"So this boyfriend probably doesn't exist?"

"It's possible, but since I can't find Ren Yaoyao's mobile phone, I can't be sure if the person who finally called her to go to the City God Temple is her boyfriend."

"MCA, you go to the Forensics Bureau right now, and ask them to send me all the call records of Ren Yaoyao this week, especially the phone call she received before she went to the City God Temple before the crime."

"Okay Du Group, do you want to bring the autopsy report with you?"

"No need, Xiaoxiao has already brought it, you can go quickly."

MCA is a newcomer to the Serious Crime Unit and a junior of my Police Academy, so I always feel that he has a special relationship with the Du Group.

"Let's continue to analyze the case, and now Xiaoxiao will tell you about the detailed autopsy report."

"According to the further evidence collected by our forensic department, it can now be basically determined that the deceased, that is, Ren Yaoyao, died due to excessive blood loss in the afternoon two days ago, and the twenty-one wounds on her body were cut by a sharp weapon in the shape of a hook, and we also found some ** chemicals in Ren Yaoyao's body, but we have checked that she was not sexually assaulted before her death, and the hair on her clothes should be feline."

"Felines? Does Ren Yaoyao usually have cats? . ”

"No, they live in a dormitory, so they shouldn't be allowed to have such pets."

Du Group looked at Li Ming and nodded, I have to say that this is the most difficult case we have encountered in the past six months, not only do we have no clue, but Du Group also seems to be a little helpless.

"Lin Xuan, tell us about your suspect."

I looked up at the Du group, and then said: "Judging from the current investigation, the suspect should be a male, between 1.7 and 1.75 meters tall, with a strong body, about 30 years old, and should have a cat at home." ”

"That's all?"

"That's all I can say about the current inference."

In fact, there is another test in my heart, the suspect, the demon, is between 1.7 and 1.75 meters tall, has a strong body, is about 30 years old, has sharp claws, has more body hair, is a feline monster, and is in the hair removal period.

Of course, no one will believe this kind of test writing, and I will not tell Du Group about such a ridiculous test writing, but I can vaguely feel that this murder is not an ordinary murder case.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, MCA came back from the evidence collection bureau in a panic, "I found it." ”

"What was found?"

"Boyfriend, Ren Yaoyao's boyfriend, I went to the Forensics Bureau to find out the phone that Ren Yaoyao answered in front of the City God Temple, and the owner of the number showed that it was a teacher from the School of Management and Economics, called Bi Fang."

"Teacher?" Du Guwan looked at me and Xiaoxiao with interest, "It's a little interesting, no wonder Ren Yaoyao's roommate has never seen her boyfriend, it turned out to be a teacher-student relationship, and he didn't dare to be known by outsiders." ”

"Li Ming, go and figure this out for me immediately, I want his most detailed report."

"Understood, Du Group."

"Xiaoxiao, you take Li Kuohai to the School of Management and Economics, MCA continues to follow up on the investigation of the Evidence Bureau, Lao Wang stays behind, and gives me a careful look at the surveillance in front of the City God Temple, and the rest of the people go to the City God Temple with me to investigate the first crime scene."

Many times I have to admire Du Group, he can always give full play to the strengths of each of us, and he can't seem to find fault with every arrangement.

Thanh Hoa Street is the most intact block of ancient buildings in Changlin City, in addition to the Chenghuang Temple in the east of the city, there are also Wanghua Palace and Taihe Temple, among which Wanghua Palace is the largest ancient building complex, legend has it that Wanghua Palace was built in the Ming Dynasty, and has a history of more than 600 years. There are more than 300 examples of ancient Buddha statues in Wanghua Palace, which is the largest ancient Taoist temple in Changlin City.

Of course, the City God Temple we are going to also belongs to the city's intangible cultural heritage protection area, so Du Group analyzed that the possibility of the murderer in the City God Temple is very small, and it is very likely that the murderer lured Ren Yaoyao in the City God Temple, and then took him to a hidden corner near the City God Temple to commit murder.

Soon we confirmed Du Group's speculation, the City God Temple opens at 10 o'clock in the morning and closes at 9 o'clock in the evening, and Ren Yaoyao goes out at about 10 o'clock in the morning, that is, the time when the City God Temple opens, and it is about half an hour's drive from the School of Economics and Management to the City God Temple, and the death identification given by the forensic doctor is in the afternoon. Twenty-one wounds bleed at the same time, and it takes about three to four hours for the human body to die due to excessive blood loss, and the period between 12 and 2 o'clock at noon is the most crowded time in the City God Temple, and the possibility of committing crimes in the City God Temple during this time is basically zero.

So where exactly will the first crime scene be?
