At night, the Xiao family villa.

"Why hasn't he come yet?"

Qiao Qianwen stood outside the door of Xiao Jie's villa, watching the police lights flicker at night, and a few curious next-door neighbors not far away were sticking their heads out to look at them.

Yu Meng on the side yawned tiredly, "Captain Xing will arrange the scene and go to the hospital again, it will definitely take a while." ”

"Hey." Qiao Qianwen picked up the phone.

"Forensic Doctor Qiao, I'm Deng Ming, the boss asked me to call you, he was called away by the Ren Bureau, he may not be able to go to your side, he asked me and Yang Yi to assist you."

"What's the game?" Qiao Qian's wife was slightly shocked in her heart..... Could it be that Xing Yi spread the news and was known by the Ren Bureau?

"Forensic Doctor Joe, the boss said you don't have to worry."

“..... Well. Her heart warmed inexplicably.

"Also, that Xiao Jie.... How's it going? ”

"Xiao Jie...."Deng Ming's voice on the other end of the phone was cut off for a while.

"Or... Didn't save it. The corpse will be pushed to you tomorrow for identification. ”

“..... Okay, I got it. ”

She paused for a moment before putting down her phone.

"Sister Qiao, Xiao Jie, he ......" Yu Meng looked at her and hugged the folder in her hand.

“.... He's dead. ”

Qiao Qianwen sighed.

I don't know what Xing Yi is doing over there.

"That'..... Captain Xing, when are they coming? Yu Meng yawned again. Qiao Qianwen looked at her, it seemed that Yu Meng was really sleepy, standing in place, her body was a little shaky. She smiled and reached out to pat her on the head.

"Little ghost, cheer up, Captain Xing can't come for a while, let's do it first."

Qiao Qianwen said, turned around and walked into the house.

"Isn't it!" Yu Meng followed her with a sad face.

The Scene Investigation Bureau was still searching all over the house, and the woman with long curly hair and the woman with short purple hair were sitting uneasily on the sofa in the living room. The two of them were the only tenants left and had not moved out.

"Now is the stage of searching and collecting evidence, if you two can avoid it, try to avoid it." If they could, they might not be so upset.

"Avoidance.... Where do we live? The short-haired woman looked at her with some anger.

"If it weren't for the lack of money, do you think we would still be willing to live in this murderer's house?"

"I'm just suggesting, please don't get excited."

She looked at the woman in front of her with a little helplessness.

"Dr. Joe, come on." Ling Xue, a technician from the Field Investigation Section, stood on the stairs leading to the second floor and motioned to her.

"Mengmeng, you're watching here." Qiao Qianwen gave up communicating with this emotionally unstable woman, and followed Ling Xue to Xiao Jie's room in a few steps.

"This is an object seized inside the walls of the suspect's room." Ling Xue pointed to the things that were laid out in turn on the ground and explained to her.

"A purple short hair cover for women and a men's hair set. There are also these clothes, including a women's skirt and men's T-shirt shorts. ”

With that short purple hair, Qiao Qianwen felt a little familiar. It's similar to the woman's hairstyle downstairs. And this dress and men's outfit are exactly the same as the clothes of the two suspects in the surveillance video...... And the role of wigs and clothes is generally to confuse the police and hide their true identity.

She immediately recalled all the previous things, when she was in the surveillance video of the painting tool store, the two people who bought painting tools. They had mistakenly thought that the two suspects of the two tenants might be played by Xiao Jie alone.

Imitate the appearance of the two tenants in his house, a woman with short purple hair and a man who is addicted to drugs. The purpose was to divert the attention of the police and suspect the two tenants.

"Where did you find all this?"

"There is a hole in the wall behind the desk that is hidden by an abandoned socket. There is also a black diary that records his daily life and possibly the murders. Ling Xue thought for a while and then said, "I think it's better to let Captain Xing find a handwriting expert for identification, I flipped through it at random, and I felt that there was something wrong with the handwriting in the diary." ”

"Okay, I got it." Qiao Qianwen nodded, flipped through the diary, and carefully looked at the words on it.

"Report." A police officer from the Investigation Bureau arrived in a hurry.

Ling Xue turned her head to look at him, her neat short hair swaying slightly.

"What's wrong?"

"We found a suspicious dumpster in the backyard."

"Trash?" The two looked at each other, "Let's go, let's take a look." ”

The space around the Xiao family's villa, although it is located in the villa group, is detached, and the front and back yards are lawns.

The bin is located close to the grass on the exterior wall, and the box is connected to the ground. The door is 45 degrees from the ground, and the green iron door panel is pitch black when it is opened, and you can smell a rotten sour smell.

"Dustbin....." Ling Xue lowered her body and shone a flashlight inside.

As soon as the light shines, the garbage bin bottoms out, but it is just over a meter deep. Inside were black plastic bags full of garbage.

Ling Xue stood up and put away the flashlight, "This should be an ordinary trash can, but there are few such models in China, and there are many abroad." ”

Qiao Qianwen frowned slightly.

"Ling Xue, something is wrong...."Why does she feel this smell... Something is wrong.

"What's wrong?" Because Qiao Qianwen said this, Ling Xuefu looked at the trash can again.

"The smell .... The smell is not right. ”

Qiao Qianwen took out a black plastic bag and poured out the garbage inside. What came out of the bag were shredded pieces of paper.

Ling Xue was also taken aback, and ordered the police officer behind her, "You guys, take out all the garbage inside." ”

With the help of two police officers, the dumpster was empty, and there was a mountain of confetti on the side.

"Forensic Joe, you're right, it's really wrong." Ling Xue looked at her.

"Do you smell the stench," Qiao Qian's wife looked at the empty garbage bin, which still smelled foul.

"Well," Ling Xue wrinkled her nose and nodded, "The garbage is all shredded paper, and it doesn't rot at all." ”

Ling Xuefu squatted down again, turned on the flashlight to take a closer look inside, it was still empty, and because of her suspicion and the high sensitivity of the on-site investigators, she immediately found something similar to an iron handle embedded in the bottom of the box.

"Dr. Joe, come and see."

Qiao Qianwen approached and saw the iron handle shining directly under the flashlight.

Ling Xue immediately reached out and knocked on it, and there was a hollow echo from the bottom of the box. This proves that the bottom is empty. She carefully gripped the iron handle and pulled it upward. There was a sudden creak at the bottom of the box, and it seemed to be loose.

"Let's see if I can open it." Qiao Qianwen followed and grabbed the iron handle, and the two of them pulled out together.

In an instant, the bottom of the box was completely opened, and a strong heat and rancid smell came to the face.

"Don't smell it." Qiao Qianwen immediately covered Ling Xue's mouth and nose and pulled her back, "The smell of corpses is high, and there is a virus in the concentration." ”

"Then how are we going down....." Ling Xue looked at her with an ugly face, forcibly holding back the uncomfortable feeling of nausea. At this moment, the vomiting sound of two police officers was heard behind them.

"Give me a mask." Qiao Qianwen looked at her, "You stay, I'll go down." ”

"But the smell of corpses...," Ling Xue said worriedly.

"Don't forget, I'm a medical examiner."

She smiled and gently patted Ling Xue's shoulder for comfort, and leaned sideways to take the mask handed by the policeman. Although it is not as effective as the special mask in the dissecting room on a daily basis, it is better than nothing.

Qiao Qianwen put on a mask and tentatively bent down towards the bottom of the garbage can, and the open basement entrance was not visible, only an iron ladder led to the ground near the entrance.

"This is my walkie-talkie, you take it. There is also this flashlight, the power should be sufficient, and it should be enough underneath. Ling Xue tore a black walkie-talkie from her waist and handed it to her, "Keep in touch at all times." ”

"Don't worry."

She stepped into one leg and probed for a moment, carefully stepping on the first iron ladder. Then she carefully followed the iron ladder that creaked from time to time, step by step, until the bright exit above was only half the size of a palm, and she reached the bottom.

"Is it the end?"

It was dim underneath, and Ling Xue couldn't see her with the naked eye alone.

"Here we are." She looked up at Ling Xue's face. The visual height is about two meters.

"Are you alright?"

"It's fine. cough cough...."Qiao Qianwen raised the flashlight and shone it around, and where the light came, there were all kinds of tables, chairs and cabinets, which seemed to be a room with some area.

The smell of corpses in the basement was stronger than on the ground, and even she was a little dazed. As she took a step forward, her feet suddenly slipped, and in a panic, she subconsciously supported the wall at hand.

"Smack".

The basement, which had been dark, suddenly lit up.

"This is...."
