The two young detectives hurriedly walked downstairs, presumably receiving orders from the front. Ji Han watched them leave, and then put on white gloves.

"The location of the first crime was not in that building." Professor Matsuno said with great certainty.

"Before the incident, the deceased was last seen on surveillance at this sushi restaurant."

"This is the property of the Asami family, and as a rule, Asami Kawano comes to inspect it once a month."

Ji Han frowned, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.

"I heard Ji Han say that you also studied criminal investigation?" Professor Matsuno asked me.

"Hmm," I nodded, "I worked as a detective and then resigned." ”

"Why did you think of quitting?"

I tilted my head and wondered how I would answer Professor Matsuno's question.

"There's always a lot of pressure to do this kind of work, he's a casual person." Ji Han said for me on the side.

"That's right." I nodded affirmatively.

Professor Matsuno's phone rang suddenly, it was the two criminal policemen who had just passed, the investigation of the first scene had been completed, and they asked Professor Matsuno to come over for forensic examination.

Professor Matsuno stood up, "Come over with you, just let me see how much you still remember what the teacher has taught you." ”

"Students in this area of knowledge are not as good as teachers even if they specialize in a lifetime." Ji Han said with a smile.

"You're always so humble."

Ji Han helped Professor Matsuno to walk downstairs, and I followed them alone. Ji Han came to me inexplicably, and didn't explain anything to me, Li Mubai and Du Group were nowhere to be found, and I am now a monk of Zhang's second brother, and I am confused.

The investigators gathered by the window, almost all of them were unfamiliar faces, and the people of the Chaohai family were still below. Ji Han opened the door on the other side, and the sunlight shone in through the glass window, and the room was not as dim as before.

"This is my student." Professor Matsuno and people from the criminal police team introduced.

Standing in the middle of the crowd was a guy with gold-rimmed glasses, the upper half of the lenses was lavender, and his hair was shaved to a five-point flat head. His name is Ichiro Hara, an old acquaintance of Professor Matsuno, and the captain of the criminal police team.

Ichiro didn't say anything to Professor Matsuno, just moved his chin slightly and motioned for us to come over.

There was no decent furniture in the room, and there was a black faux leather chair against the wall, which could slot into about three or four adults.

The corpse was lying on it, it was a man, and I craned my neck and looked at the corpse carefully.

The deceased was about 50 years old, about 1.7 meters tall, and slightly chubby. Wearing a coffee-colored shirt and no tie, judging from the texture of the clothes, he should be a person of status. There was crimson blood on his chest ten centimeters in diameter, as well as several other wounds, although there was no bleeding, but there were obvious marks of blows.

I looked up and down the room, there was no sign of a fight, the deceased was neatly dressed, and his hair was barely out of shape with all his hair combed back.

"He killed him, he can't be wrong." Professor Matsuno affirmed, "There were multiple stab wounds on his body. Two on the chest and three on the shoulders. The fatal wound should be a penetrating wound below the left chest, a few centimeters to the left of the sternum. The murder weapon went through the gap between the ribs and into the heart. ”

"Died on the spot?" Ichiro Hara asked.

"It should be, this wound will not last more than a minute."

Ji Han squatted down and pressed the wound with his hand, "Coronary artery hemorrhage compresses the heart, causing capsular tamponade. ”

"Did the killer get blood on him?"

"It should be, but not much."

"Where's the murder weapon?"

Ji Han frowned, and after a little thought, he said: "It's a thin and sharp blade, maybe narrower than a fruit knife, anyway, it's not a kitchen knife or *** or something." ”

Professor Matsuno nodded in satisfaction, "The time of death is presumptive." ”

"The posthumous stiffness has spread all over the body, and the corpse spots are no longer displaced, and the cornea is quite cloudy, and it should have been dead for more than seventeen hours or even a whole day."

Hara Ichiro looked at his watch, it was 4:20 p.m., and simply extrapolating the time, the deceased should have been killed between 5 p.m. and 12 p.m. yesterday.

"Then send it for autopsy." Ichiro Hara said.

Professor Matsuno nodded, "That's better." ”

At this time, a young criminal policeman suddenly walked in, "The family of the deceased is here. ”

Ji Han glanced back at me, he took out a sanitary mask from his jacket pocket and motioned for me to wear it.

"It's finally here, it's been eight hours since the body was found in the morning, let her come in and recognize the person first."

Hearing Hara's instructions, the young detective nodded and left the room.

Ji Han asked the criminal police behind him in a low voice, "Don't you already know the identity of the deceased?" ”

The other party nodded, "The deceased has a driver's license and a business card on him, and the first to find the body of the deceased is also a subordinate of the Chaohai family, this is just a formality." ”

When I left Asami's house in the morning, someone had already reported the news of her father's death to Sachiko Asami, but Sachiko Asami didn't come to claim the body for such a long time, could it be that she was busy with something else.

"This way, please." Sachiko Asami followed behind the young detective, and the first thing that caught her eye was a bright orange dress. With a pair of ten-centimeter high heels, it is obvious that he has just attended an important party.

Sachiko Asami raised her hand to her mouth and made a hoarse voice, probably crying hoarse in the morning in Kato Asake's arms. In this way, Sachiko Asami's movements stopped for a few seconds, and the criminal police also knew that it was useless to talk more in this situation, and everyone watched the scene silently.

Finally, Sachiko Asami began to slowly approach the corpse, in front of the bench, she looked down at the face of the middle-aged man, her jaw was trembling slightly, and after a long time she choked up and cried, "It's my father." ”

The people of the Chaohai family came one after another, and the sound of crying filled the entire room.

The victim, Asami Kawano, is a local real estate tycoon in Nara and a gang boss in Nara. After Sachiko Asami's confirmation, the body was quickly removed from the scene. Ji Han helped the people in the identification department move the body to the stretcher.

"The victim was killed after he had eaten enough." Ji Han muttered to himself.

"What did you say?" Yuan Ichiro looked at Ji Han and asked.

"You see, the belt buckle is two holes looser than usual."

"Ah, sure enough."

Ichiro Hara glanced back at Professor Matsuno, then smiled and said, "This student of yours is very careful." ”

"Of course, he's the most gifted one I've ever had."

Ji Han instructed the people in the appraisal department to take pictures of this part, and Yuan Ichiro also signaled them to do what Ji Han said.

After the body was removed, the investigators who participated in the investigation of the scene left one after another, and Hara Ichiro handed Sachiko Asami a tissue to wipe her tears.

"My father's body cannot be autopsied."

Ichiro Hara frowned, "Dissection can bring us more clues, I hope Miss Asahi understands that we are all trying to catch your father's murderer faster." ”

Sachiko Asami got up, and people in black dresses walked into the room one after another.

"The Asami family is making a big fuss in Nara, we will investigate the person who killed my father, if the police department wants to help, please leave the whole body for my father."

As she spoke, Sachiko Asami bowed deeply to Ichiro Hara, and then left with her entourage. Ichiro Hara stood in the center of the room and looked around again. He crossed his hip with his left hand and touched his cheek with his right hand, which was his habit when he stood and thought.

"Matsuno," Ichiro Hara said, "what do you think?" What kind of murderer is it? ”

"I can't see it at all, but it's a little weird." Professor Matsuno glanced around, "The wound on his back doesn't look like a knife wound, and his clothes aren't damaged at all, they must have been hit by something like rattan." And the fatal wound under the left chest, with a slender blade through the gap between the ribs and straight into the heart, if it is not accidental, then the murderer must be a master of assassination. ”

"Is this the scene of the first crime?"

Professor Matsuno shook his head, "Not really, if the murderer had committed the murder here, there would have been traces of a fight, but there is nothing here." ”

Ichiro Hara reached out and scratched his head, there is no clue about this case until now. The deceased was a community boss in Nara, and there were many enemies, if the enemy bought the murderer, it would undoubtedly be looking for a needle in a haystack, and a whole day had passed since the time of death, and the murderer was likely to have escaped from Nara, or even left the country.

"Let's do it first, I can't find anything in this case for a while, and I'll inform you when I find out."

After saying that, Ichiro Hara turned around and left, leaving only Ji Han, me, and Professor Matsuno in the empty room.

"Did you find anything?" Professor Matsuno asked Ji Han.

"When I came, I heard from people in the neighborhood that this building was built with the funds of the Chaohai family, and because the wages of the employees have been in arrears, there have been strikes of migrant workers in the past few months."

"Do you think it will be the people who were killed by the migrant workers?"

"It's hard to say, the owner of the sushi restaurant told me that the feng shui of this building is not very good, and there are supernatural things happening all the time. This time, Asamikawano died in the building, and some people said that the unjustly killed laborers came back to ask for his life. ”

"You believe in this kind of thing, too?" Professor Matsuno glanced at Ji Han with a smile. "How about the teacher take you to eat sashimi in the evening?"

"Of course," Ji Han paused suddenly, "But my friend has some other things to deal with, and he may arrive a little later." ”

"It's okay, the teacher is waiting for you."

Professor Matsuno smiled, his mind didn't seem to be on the case, he didn't say much to me, but I could tell he was very interested in me.

In the evening, Ashio Kato began to search for people all over the world, and Ji Han took me back to that sushi restaurant again. There was a police car parked at the door, and I knew that according to the usual practice of the detectives, they should start asking questions at the sushi restaurant by now.

Sure enough, the proprietress was called aside, and a criminal police officer was whispering to her about the situation. Another detective looked around at the merchants, the waiters in the store had returned, I think they should have been taken by the Asami family in the afternoon to interrogate, in the Nara yakuza community is much more efficient than the police.

Opposite the sushi shop is a pawnshop, the hanging iron door is more than half pulled down, and you can see through the windshield that there are not too many goods stored in the store. I looked around the whole street, only the door of this shop was ajar, and it was not yet time to close, but the store was empty.
